On the way home, although she was very hungry, Li Hehua was happy from the bottom of her heart, because she would be able to earn money soon.
As long as this is a good start, you will not have to worry about running out of business in the future. I believe the villagers' ability to spread is very good.
If that's the case, can she give herself a reward
Well, in fact, she really didn't want to eat brown rice porridge, and she was almost weak after eating it.
I still have about 30 pennies on me. I can buy some rice and noodles to eat. Anyway, the Wang family will have a banquet in ten days, so the money should be used.
Li Hehua endured a strong hunger and did not go back to the village, but went directly to the town.
When we arrived in the town, many street stalls were closed, but some of them were still selling food.
Li Hehua touched her stomach and wanted to eat a bowl of noodles, but a bowl of plain noodles cost three cents, which was too expensive for her now.
After struggling for a while, Li Hehua defeated his desire and walked away in pain.
Forget it, go home and make some noodles yourself, it must be a hundred times better than eating here.
After comforting himself, Li Hehua walked directly down the street to a grain and oil store, bought a little rice and a little flour, spending a total of twenty-five cents, and only five cents left in his pocket.
Li Hehua sighed, turned and walked towards the village.
When I got home, the sun was almost at four o'clock in the afternoon. At this point, many villagers were still working in the fields. Li Hehua didn't see Zhang Tieshan and Zhang Qingshan, nor did he see Zhang Tieshan's mother, but the door of the house was open, so he should leave. not far.
First put the purchased rice in the firewood room, and Li Hehua went straight to the kitchen with the flour. Just as he was about to start, he thought of the child from yesterday, and then, in a ghostly way, he walked to the back of the stove, and then , I saw the child from yesterday again.
Still in the same sitting position, still silent.
Li Hehua's heart twitched, sour and unbearable, and an unknown emotion filled her brain, making her want to hug the child, kiss him, and give him the best things to make him laugh and make him happy.
But she knew that she couldn't, this child rejected her very much, and her approach would only hurt him.
So, Li Hehua suppressed the emotions in his heart and said to the child, "Hello, baby, I'm going to cook and eat now. I'll make fragrant noodles, and I'll make you a bowl too, okay?"
The child did not respond as expected, and Li Hehua was not disappointed, turned around and started making noodles.
There are no other side dishes at home, so she can only make one of the most ordinary plain noodles to eat.
Making noodles is too easy for her, and she can do it in less than ten minutes. Li Hehua deliberately made a little more. First, she used a bowl to take out half the bowl, then put the bowl on the kitchen stool, and moved the stool to the back of the stove. In front of the little boy, he said softly: "Baby, this is noodles, it's very fragrant, you can try it."
Seeing that the child didn't move and didn't respond, Li Hehua pursed his lips, sighed, and said, "Then baby, I won't disturb you, can you eat by yourself? Be careful not to get burned, I'm leaving." Said After briefly brushing the pot, he slowly returned to the firewood room with his bowl of noodles.
While eating the noodles he made, Li Hehua thought about the little boy in the kitchen, wondering if he had eaten it? Will it get burned
Halfway through the meal, Li Hehua put down the bowl uneasy, got up and walked to the kitchen, wanting to see if the child had been scalded. As a result, as soon as he walked to the door of the kitchen, he heard a woman's voice inside, it was Zhang Lin.
Li Hehua quickly stopped.
Inside, Zhang Lin was surprised, "Where did you get the noodles, Shulin?"
No one answered.
Li Hehua quietly returned to the firewood room.
As soon as the door of the firewood room was closed, I heard the voices of two people outside. It was Zhang Tieshan and Zhang Qingshan who were coming.
Li Hehua lowered his head and continued to eat his own noodles.
Zhang Tieshan and Zhang Qingshan didn't see their mother and Shulin, they put down the things in their hands and went to the kitchen. They saw Zhang Lin was standing by the stove with his waist bent and talking. When they saw their two sons coming back, Zhang Lin straightened up. , "You are back."
Zhang Qingshan was curious, "Mother, what are you doing? Are you talking to Shulin?"
Zhang Lin's brows were slightly wrinkled: "I just went to wash clothes by the stream, and when I came back, I saw a bowl of noodles in front of Shulin. I don't know where it came from. I asked Shulin, and Shulin ignored me."
Zhang Qingshan rushed up to take a look, and sure enough, there was a bench in front of Shulin with a bowl of steaming noodles on it. When he smelled it, there was a strong and attractive fragrance.
"This noodle is really fragrant? Where did it come from?" Zhang Qingshan followed his doubts and couldn't help but look at his brother.
Zhang Tieshan also saw the bowl of noodles. He didn't speak, but his eyes were condensed. After a while, he shook his head, and his voice was also light, "It's okay, I'll go out with Shulin. Let's go out." He took Shulin into his arms and walked out.
Zhang Qingshan looked at the noodles on the stool, and after thinking about it, he still picked it up and followed out of the kitchen. This noodle smells really good. No matter who gave it to Shulin, it must have good intentions for Shulin. If you don't eat it, it will be wasted.
Zhang Qingshan put the noodles on the table, and handed over a pair of chopsticks, "Brother, this noodles are so fragrant, it must be the same person who ate the buns in Shulin yesterday. This person must be very good at craftsmanship. Brother, you feed it to Shulin, let's eat."
Zhang Lin said suspiciously beside him: "It's really strange, I was washing clothes not far from the door, and I didn't see anyone entering the house to deliver food to Shulin. Besides, when the villagers delivered something, why didn't they make a sound? ?"
Zhang Qingshan shook his head inexplicably: "I don't know, probably because I don't want us to know, anyway, as long as it's good for Shulin."
Zhang Lin thinks about it too, "If you give food to Shulin, it must be good for Shulin. Just give this noodles to Shulin, don't waste other people's good intentions."
Zhang Qingshan glanced at the closed door of the firewood room without a trace, but did not speak, only took the chopsticks in Zhang Qingshan's hand, picked up a chopstick of noodles, and put it into his mouth first.
The noodles entered his mouth, Zhang Qingshan paused, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and after a few breaths, he chewed it, and then slowly swallowed it.
Zhang Qingshan looked at his brother's actions and admired it very much. What he thought was too simple, but his brother thought it thoughtfully. He only thought that it was a good thing and let Shulin eat it, but he never thought that there might be something wrong with it, and he never thought to try it first. If there was a problem, it would hurt Shulin.
Thinking of this, Zhang Qingshan felt a little guilty. He reached out and took the chopsticks in his brother's hand, and also took the chopsticks and noodles into his mouth. He wanted to give Shulin a try, but he couldn't let his brother try the poison alone.
As a result, as soon as the noodles entered his mouth, his eyes widened involuntarily, he quickly chewed the contents of his mouth, and said while eating, "Who made this? Isn't this just ordinary noodles, how can it be so delicious? ? It's better than anything sold in town."
When Zhang Lin saw what his younger son said, he was curious, so he hurriedly tasted it, and was surprised. He didn't expect that an ordinary bowl of plain noodles could be so delicious.
Zhang Tieshan did not speak.
After a while, seeing that there was nothing wrong, Zhang Tieshan picked up a chopstick of noodles and handed it to Shulin's mouth, "Shulin, eat noodles, and open your mouth."
Shulin's eyes moved, stared at the noodles for a moment, and finally opened his mouth.
Zhang Tieshan fed Shulin slowly until all the noodles in the bowl were eaten.
Zhang Qingshan looked a little surprised, "Brother, Shulin actually finished a bowl of noodles? He has never been able to eat much before."
Zhang Tieshan also flashed surprise in his eyes.
Since he came back, Shulin has become like this. He can't eat anymore. Often, he has to feed a little, but he immediately vomits. It's been a little better these days, but he doesn't eat much. Take him to Seeing the doctor, the doctor only said that this is a heart disease caused by long-term hunger, and drinking medicine will not cure the root cause. This made him unable to sleep because of worry, but now, Shulin ate a bowl of noodles, how could he not be surprised
Could it be Shulin...
Zhang Tieshan glanced at the direction of the firewood room again, and there was an inexplicable emotion in his eyes, which made people unable to understand.
At this moment, Li Hehua didn't know what was going on outside. He just finished the noodles quietly, heard the movement outside, and knew that the Zhang family was still outside, so he didn't want to go out, and just waited for no one outside before going to the kitchen to wash dishes.
Just after eating, Li Hehua could not lie down and rest immediately. Li Hehua stood up and did yoga slowly, which could speed up the weight loss while digesting.
It's just that her body is too fat now, and yoga is very difficult for her. Many movements that were easy in the past are now difficult to get to the sky, and she can't even lift a leg, and a single bending motion makes her tired enough. So after a set of actions, Li Hehua was sweating profusely, as if he had just been fished out of the water, and his body was too tired to move.
Li Hehua was so tired that he slumped on the bed, gasping for breath, looked down at the flesh on his body, and clenched his fists heavily. She still has to persevere, she must reduce it.
It was getting dark outside very quickly, and I could vaguely hear the sound of cooking in the kitchen, and then the sound of a family eating. After a long time, the sound from outside gradually disappeared, and finally fell into silence.
Li Hehua quietly opened the door of the firewood room and heard that it was really quiet outside. Then he took the bowl and went to the kitchen, washed the tableware and chopsticks under the moonlight outside, and then quietly burned a pot of water into the firewood room to wash it. I took a shower, changed my clothes, and then I lay down comfortably, and then in my mind I planned to get up tomorrow morning before everyone else woke up and make some steamed buns as a meal for the day, so that I would not encounter other people. People, can also solve their day's food problems.
After thinking about it, Li Hehua went to sleep.
The next day, just as the chickens were crowing, Li Hehua opened his eyes, remembered his plan, and sat up despite being sleepy. After getting dressed, he took the flour he bought into the kitchen and started making steamed buns.
The steamed buns are very simple, and they will be ready in no time. Just put them in the pot and steam them. She is about to put the steamed buns in the steamer. Out of the corner of her eyes, she sees half the basket of leeks in the basket, her eyes lit up. , I couldn't help thinking of the child in my mind.
She should be fine with a little bit of leeks secretly, right? Just a little is enough. She wants to make some fried dumplings for the child. He is really weak and needs something delicious.
But what if someone else found out? Wouldn't she be upset that she was stealing from their house
Li Hehua was in a tangle, she knew it was better not to do extra things, but for some reason, she just wanted to make something delicious for the child, maybe it was out of guilt that she didn't want to admit, although it wasn't real But now, she is Li Hehua.
In the end, Li Hehua secretly used a small handful of leeks in the basket, chopped them into stuffing, seasoned them with seasonings, and finally wrapped them in the dough, then fried them in a pan, and a bowl of fried dumplings was ready.
He took one and tasted it. Li Hehua was very satisfied with the taste. He covered the rest with a bowl and put it on the stove, waiting for the little baby to eat.
She knew that this would definitely make other people suspicious, but she didn't think about pretending to be anonymous, she just wanted to be nice to the child, but she has nothing now, only to make him something to eat, but it's impossible She gave it secretly every time, so everyone else knew it, and she didn't want to say anything good.
Thinking about it, Li Hehua picked up the steamed buns and went back to the firewood room. As soon as he turned around, he saw a tall figure standing at the door of the kitchen, looking at her so frightened that she almost dropped the bowl.
