Her question stumped Xu Erzhu. Isn't this all a woman's business? Then Xu Erzhu's eyes kept moving downward until Mei Sanniang realized something was wrong and quickly put her hands on her chest to protect her.

"You won't let me breastfeed, will you?"

"I…"

Mei Sanniang hesitated, asking how could a young girl get breasts? She had never even given birth to a child.

"Sanniang...you won't..."

"It's just as you think, I can't feed the child.

It’s no wonder that in the poor countryside, food and clothing are a problem, let alone a steady supply of breast milk.

"Why."

"I can only get some pimple water and feed it to Guitang."

After that, Xu Erzhu hurriedly went home and got some corn flour. Mei Sanniang stared at her, wondering how it was possible to give the baby gnocchi water.

"Why don't you go to another place and see who has breasts?"

Xu Erzhu was not idle. He cleaned up the stove and set up a fire. "Sanniang, this is such good food. Even other children can't get enough to eat, let alone give it to other children."

Hui Shi, who has lived in the technological age all year round, saw such a poor family for the first time. Her heart was churning and she almost shed tears.

"Sanniang, what's wrong with you?" Erzhu saw Sanniang in tears and thought something was wrong.

"It's okay, it's all my fault. Girl Xue'er suffered a lot following me."

"Mom, Xue'er is not miserable. As long as mother is here, Xue'er and her brother will be very satisfied."

"Okay, Sanniang, the child is very hungry. Please help me wash the dishes."

"good."

As soon as Mei Sanniang agreed, Mei Xue took the iron bowl consciously and said, "Mother, let me do it! Just rest." After saying that, she rolled up her sleeves and walked towards the reservoir, sat on the ground and slowly used her hands to

Rub the stains away.

Mei Sanniang, who was stunned on the spot, has not recovered yet. Xueer has been sensible since she was a child. When Mei Sanniang was around, she often couldn't get good things to eat. In order to keep her mother by her side, she became surprisingly sensible.

"Xue'er, from now on, let mother do all the work."

Mei Xue's heart trembled. It was the first time she heard her mother say this, and her heart became sweeter. But for some reason, she felt that it was her own hallucination.

In the kitchen, Xu Erzhu was busy. Seeing that Sanniang was okay, he asked her to coax her back to the house. The baby was very hungry, and the mother should cry less.

Mei Sanniang coaxed the baby for the first time. Facing the return hall, she held her forehead and sighed because she didn't know how to coax.

I remembered that in the past, when other people were coaxing children, they seemed to hum lullabies and gently pat the babies. Thinking of this, Mei Sanniang also did the same, humming that only mothers are good in the world. The next second, she really didn't cry when she returned home.

Then he started to smile at her, with tears on his face and two small white teeth.

At this time, Xu Erzhu had already boiled half a pot of pimple water. The noodles were not visible, but there was quite a lot of water. "Sanniang, bring a bowl."

"etc."

Mei Sanniang picked up the bowl that Mei Xue had washed and handed it over.

This move scared Mei Xueke to the side. Usually her mother was crazy and would not do anything when she got home. When she didn't like Mei Xue, she would rudely press her on the board and hit her. Therefore, in Mei Xue's eyes,

You can't make your mother angry, and you can't make her do things, otherwise you won't get any good results.

"Sanniang, I'll trouble you to feed Guitang later."

Mei Sanniang agreed, which made Mei Xue anxious.

"Mother, let Xue'er come. Mother, sit down and eat."

Seeing such a sensible girl, Mei Sanniang really wanted to teach the original owner a good lesson. After the child's father left, Mei Sanniang changed her temper and became angry when she saw Mei Xue. Maybe the child would have to be beaten.

After a while, she was very hungry when she returned to the hall, and she couldn't help crying, so Mei Xue had no choice but to go door to door to seek help.

After too many times, no one was seen. She could survive by chewing some tree bark and stuffing some grass in her stomach, but her younger brother could not. Fortunately, Uncle Erzhu from the next door family treated Mei Xue every time, so that

Still alive till now.

"It's okay, mother is here, you go sit down and eat."

Mei Xue was flattered by her mother's behavior, and then consciously expressed her position, "Mother, I'm going to get some pimple water for my brother."

Although these two children were not her biological children, after all, people's hearts were fleshy. Based on the memory of the original owner, these two children had suffered a lot on weekdays and had not had enough to eat.

Being a sister is even more difficult. Every time Mei Sanniang comes back crazy, she beats Mei Xue. If Mei Sanniang gets tired of Guitang’s cries, even the baby will not be spared. Mei Xue can only protect Guitang with her body.

.

Just as Mei Sanniang was about to say something, Mei Xue handed over a bowl of pimple water and said, "Mother, drink first."

Filial piety comes first. These days, Mei Xue has not really lived a good life for the sake of her family. At this age, it is the happiest childhood for children, but Mei Xue has already taken on the important responsibilities of the family.

"Good boy, it's okay. Mom is not hungry. You go and eat with your Uncle Erzhu first."

Mei Sanniang picked up the bowl and walked back to the hall to let the infant drink the pimple water. She really couldn't bear it, but these days there was only so much food, and she had no milk, so the baby had to suffer a little.

Such a big baby definitely cannot drink directly from a bowl. Mei Sanniang thought for a while and saw the teeth marks on the cloth. She understood something, so she quickly washed her hands until she felt they were clean.

She dipped her fingers into some pimple water and let Guitang suck her fingers bit by bit.

After feeding and returning to the hall, Mei Sanniang also scooped out a bowl of pimple water from the pot, squatted on the ground and drank. Mei Xue, who was standing by, saw that her mother had also drank, and looked at Mei Sanniang with a smile, "Mother, today is a day."

The pimple water tastes better than usual.”

Mei Sanniang lowered her eyes and looked at the pimple water in the bowl carefully. The bowl said it was pimple water, but there was only water and not even half of the corn flour.

As for the pot head, I only scooped out half of the bowl of pimpled water and Mei Xue. After taking a few sips, I licked the mouth of the bowl with unfulfilled interest.

"Come here, little one."

Mei Xue was stunned, then carefully moved to Mei Sanniang's side, "Mother."

"When a child is growing up, how can he eat so much? You drank my bowl of pimple water, and it's not enough to scoop some out of the pot."

"Mom, Xue'er is not hungry, please drink more."

"Drink when I tell you to."

Mei Xue was so frightened that she quickly took the bowl, fearing to make her mother angry, so she drank the pimple water in large gulps, lowering her head and not daring to look at Mei Sanniang.

After she yelled, she regretted it. After all, she didn't mean it. Fortunately, Xu Erzhu gave him a step down and said, "Xue'er, your mother is a duplicitous person. Sanniang, there is still something in the pot. I'm scooping out a bowl for you."

you."

"It's okay." Mei Sanniang looked at Xu Erzhu and replied.

After Xu Erzhu left, Mei Sanniang took a look inside the house and thought for a long time. After all, the Li family had a substitute doctor. How could the Li family be so poor?

Just when Mei Sanniang was lost in thought, Mei Xue obediently called her mother, holding a few gray-black roasted bird eggs in her hand. Mei Sanniang thought they were carbon lumps and was shocked.
