  Chapter 8 Eat your first full meal

  Su Hua scratched his head and asked suspiciously, "Father, what is a death star?"

   Su Saburo's face was covered with pain, and tears fell to the ground. He didn't answer his son's question, because his heart was sore and painful, and he couldn't speak.

   He even dared not look at his son, for fear that they would be frightened and disturbed when they saw him crying, because he was their heaven and the mountain that supported them and protected them.

   Su Saburo quickened his pace, Su Chong and Su Hua quickly forgot to wait for the answer and trotted to keep up.

   Su Sanmei hugged Su Xiaolu and walked quickly.

  Su Xiaolu couldn't sleep, I was really afraid that the thin third sister would fall and fly out for her. Fortunately, although the third sister was thin, her small steps were absolutely steady.

   Along the way, many people from the same village came out to see, but no one spoke.

  Su Saburo didn't have time to talk to anyone. The old house of the Su family was at the end of the village. It was a long way from the last family at the end of the village.

   is equivalent to the mountainside behind the village. The several acres of thin land that continues to the mountain forest behind the house are covered with weeds, which will be the source of their family’s food rations in the future.

  The roof of the old house is a little broken.

  The earthen walls of the walls are also broken in many places. There are moss on the walls, and the wooden doors are rotten to the bottom. A child of three or five years old can get in directly.

The only good thing about    is that the light is bright.

   Around the house, weeds are leg-high, and the old well is also overgrown with water plants, and the water is stinky.

  The old house that has been abandoned for decades has once again welcomed a new owner.

There was melancholy in Zhao's eyes, and Su Saburo smiled at him and said: "My dear, you have a good rest, you haven't eaten today, let's tidy up at home tomorrow, I'll go to the fire to wash the rice and cook, Let's have a full meal today as a family."

   Mrs. Zhao said worriedly: "Dad, baby, I'm not hungry. We have few things, so it's going to be winter, so save some food."

  The food distribution is good, Zhao family doesn't want to eat more.

However, Su Sanlang smoothed Zhao's hair and said, "Don't worry, baby girl, there are so many things in the mountains, our family will definitely be able to get over the better, this first meal must be full and start well. , I'll have a full meal in the future."

   Zhao shi couldn't refute, so he nodded his head with red eyes: "Okay."

  Whether this winter can pass or not, they are all together as a family, living together and dying together.

   Zhao is still too weak to get out of bed, but her heart is attached to her family.

She heard that Su Saburo asked Su Sanmei to cook rice together, and heard Su Saburo ask Chong and Hua to weed out the weeds in the yard, and let the two sons have a weeding competition. Whoever wins will be able to eat more at night. a piece of meat.

   Both brothers competed and worked hard.

   She also heard chickens crowing outside the house.

   Soon, the smell of fireworks came up.

   Zhao shi lowered his eyes and looked at Su Xiaolu who was sleeping softly, and whispered, "Fourth sister, we must be able to get over the better, right?"

   The sun was setting in the west, and the red glow at dusk was very beautiful. When Zhao looked at the glow that penetrated in, he just thought it was very beautiful.

   In that house, the family lived in the back room with backlight and dim light, and never saw the light of the sun.

   is so beautiful.

  After dark, Su Saburo cooked the bacon soup, cooked the fragrant white rice, and put a big bowl for the Zhao family to eat.

Helping Mrs Zhao to sit up to eat, Su Saburo said with some shame: "That one male and one female have two chickens, and the hen did not lay eggs, otherwise you would be able to eat eggs, and next year we will also have a litter of chickens and cubs. , then I will kill two chickens for you to eat."

   Zhao Shi was just about to give birth, just when he was going to take nutritional supplements, but he couldn't give her anything.

Zhao shi smiled and said, "I don't like chicken, so I keep selling money for you guys to rip cloth and make clothes. You scooped so much for me, have you eaten it? Brother Chong'er and the three sisters, are they enough? "

  Although life was hard, but Su Saburo was kind to her, her heart was always sweet.

   The two couples looked at each other and smiled.

   After saying that, Mr. Zhao couldn't eat anymore: "Go get a bowl, I have a small appetite, where can I eat so much, I will divide half of it."

Su Saburo's eyes were red, and he choked up slightly, and said, "Eat, I cooked four bowls of rice, and I couldn't finish it. The little girl hasn't had any milk yet, so she must be starving, you eat alone. To feed the two of you."

  Su Xiaolu is so well-behaved, if Dr. Wu said he was fine, Su Sanlang would have thought the child was unhealthy.

   This child seems to know what's going on at home. After waking up several times, she doesn't cry. She just changes diapers a few times. After feeding her a little water, she can continue to sleep.

  Su Saburo said this, Zhao didn't say no, and started to eat.

   But she also pushed Su Saburo to go out to eat. Su Saburo smiled and nodded and went out. Before leaving, he said, "Honey, just eat, if you don't have enough, call me, there is still more in the pot."

   Mr. Zhao nodded with tears in his eyes.

   She ate carefully and did not dare to drop a grain of rice. Everyone in the family was full for this meal.

   Soon after Mr. Zhao finished eating, he started to feed Su Xiaolu.

  Su Xiaolu is also very cooperative. After being hungry for most of the day, she is also full.

   After eating, Zhao's energy was better. Before going to bed, Su Sanlang boiled medicine for her to drink. Zhao naturally knew that the medicine was hard-won, and he drank all the remaining drops.

  Two rooms and two beds, the tired family fell asleep.

   Late at night, Su Xiaolu put her little hand on Zhao's lips and continued to feed her spiritual spring water.

   Zhao shi woke up in a daze, was startled, and quickly pushed Su Xiaolu away, she muttered, "I'm full at night, why is my mother eating your little hand again?"

   After saying that, Mrs Zhao got up, changed Su Xiaolu's diaper, then wrapped her little hands in, and gently tied her with a cloth rope.

  Su Xiaolu:  …

   Miscalculated.

   Zhao looked at the well-behaved Su Xiaolu, couldn't help but kissed her cheek and said, "Fourth sister is really good."

  After wrapping up her daughter, Mrs. Zhao fed Su Xiaolu another meal before continuing to sleep with confidence.

  I don't know what happened, she felt very comfortable and not heavy at all.

   Su Xiaolu, who was full, burped and fell asleep.

   She was still a baby, so naturally she mostly slept.

   It was dawn, and Su Saburo got up early, and made a fire to cook.

   There is still another winter to pass. Today's rice is not as good as yesterday's. The rice is sandwiched with ground golden jade sticks, and it is eaten like this with a soup with little oil and water.

  Su Xiaolu was watching while Zhao's family was eating.

She knows    rice, and it has a long history. The thing that is sandwiched in rice should be corn. The earliest record of corn in history is in the book (Gongxian Zhi) of Jiajing in the Ming Dynasty. It is called jade wheat.

  Su Saburo and Zhao are both ancient people, but they don't know which dynasty they are now.
