Chapter 227 The brain starts to work
Bai Xianglan shed tears of dissatisfaction. Once upon a time, she actually enjoyed this kind of family happiness. In this panic moment, hearing these words made her feel moved and reassured.
"Okay! Don't cry! Grandma, go back to the house and rest for a while! I'll make dinner later!" Lin Xue wiped her tears for her.
In her heart, grandma is worthy of filial piety. She, a little old lady, at her age, actually has to worry about their family not being able to survive the winter, and she has to spend all her own money to support the family.
This made her lose her potential. She was originally a person who treated her well and treated her very well. Compared with the old white woman, this grandma was simply perfect. She couldn't fault her at all.
How can you look at such a little old lady who is so frightened? She doesn’t feel at ease, right? Then she will get food for her tomorrow so that she can eat with peace of mind.
When she got to the kitchen, she was a little frightened when she saw the food her family had eaten during this period.
She left them two months' worth of food. It's been a month and there's still about one and a half months' worth of food left. How much has this been reduced?
I only ate half a month’s worth in a month, and I must have eaten a lot of wild vegetables.
Seeing the two sacks of dried vegetables that her mother had put away under the cupboard, she was even more certain that everything eaten at home must be wild vegetables, and she was reluctant to eat more vegetables from the garden.
She could imagine that the little ones would all have white faces when they came back from vacation.
Because she knows that the food in the town has not been affected, and her mother must not have told her father what they eat at home.
Otherwise, her father would definitely not be able to eat such good food in the town.
They are all hungry people. They must have been used to eating wild vegetables for a long time. But the little ones are different. Although they have also been hungry, they have become very naughty in the past few months. It will definitely be very difficult for them to eat wild vegetables again.
That’s all the suffering.
Bai Xianglan knew that she couldn't stop her eldest granddaughter from cooking wild vegetables into a paste at night, and she didn't want to stop her today. The grandchildren had obviously lost a lot of weight, but none of them were sensible enough to complain, and they followed their mother out as soon as dawn.
Pick wild vegetables. Since the eldest granddaughter wants to improve their food, let her go.
So I went to my daughter-in-law’s room to take care of the two baby babies.
Lin Xue was about to cook and opened the big iron pot. The iron pot was rusty, obviously it had not been oily for a long time.
Her nose is slightly sour and her eye circles are getting red. What kind of life has the family been having during the month she has been away?
In Kyoto, she ate all kinds of specialties and delicacies, and lived the life of a young mistress in a bungalow, while her younger brothers and sisters lived at home, going out to pick wild vegetables at dawn and making wild vegetables mushy every day.

Emma, I can’t think about it. What should I do if I feel like crying when I think about this?
Although it was not her fault, she always felt that she had sinned.
If she hadn't followed Zhang Yuan to Kyoto...forget it, she wouldn't let them eat wild vegetables to make them sticky in the future, and would secretly give them snacks every day! Make it up to them more.
So, those who wanted to make up for their younger siblings started cooking.
Grandma didn't even look at what she had brought back, so she quietly took her bag into the kitchen and started taking things out.
Although there were vegetables in the garden, she was too lazy to go out to pick them, so she simply took them out from the space.
I made a stew, which was her favorite dish in later generations.
It's just potatoes, beans, eggplants, peppers, tomatoes, and melon stewed together. There's a lot of meat in it, and it's oily and fragrant.
I braised another chicken and mixed it with a spicy and sour cold dish.
Then I stewed a large pot of rice.
Just these three dishes can make several little ones cry in a while.
She deliberately closed the kitchen doors and windows when cooking. Although it was a little hot, it was better than the smell wafting out.
At a time when people couldn't eat decent meals every day and were left with mushy wild vegetables, and when it didn't rain and people were panicking, although she didn't let her family eat mushy wild vegetables, she couldn't be too high-profile.
What good things should be eaten secretly behind closed doors, otherwise it will cause public outrage.
As Lin Xue expected, the little ones had only been on vacation for about ten days, and each looked at his face with a disheveled look, looking listless. The two brothers followed their mother into the yard carrying the wild vegetables picked that day.
Lin Xia saw their eldest sister's bicycle first, her eyes lit up instantly, and she ran into the house.
"Sister...Is eldest sister back? Sister!" He shouted loudly, eldest sister, eldest sister. He didn't look like a girl at all, and he was very arrogant.
"What? The eldest sister is back?" When the two brothers heard the third sister shouting, they quickly raised their heads and looked over. They did see the eldest sister's bicycle.
They also quickened their pace and walked forward, but the two of them couldn't throw down the wild vegetables in their hands and run inside. This was their day's work. They followed their mother to pick outside for a day.
Nowadays, every household picks wild vegetables, and you can’t find them anywhere near. You have to go inside.
They went out early in the morning and didn't come back at noon. They just went out to eat steamed buns, and they had to eat them secretly. If there was someone in front of them, their mother wouldn't let them take it out to eat.
Lin Shuang helped her mother hold the farm tools, so she couldn't rush into the house. She could only walk a few steps quickly, trying to put down the farm tools quickly and go in to see her elder sister.
Lin Yun was still carrying the family's rations and water bags, but this didn't stop her from rushing in.
After the holiday, she originally thought she could do something big. She had already taken the orders and fabrics from her classmates, as well as the people who had introduced her to making clothes. But it was better to go home and she didn't have time at all during the day.
They made clothes, and her mother supervised their homework at night.
Her mother said this: "It hasn't rained so far this year. Why don't you go out and find some food for yourself? Besides, your eldest sister left so many candles! Come back at night and do your homework, and go pick wild vegetables with your mother during the day."
! Is it easy for your eldest sister and your father to support the whole family? Let’s share more! It will make it less hard for them!”
Having said this, what other reasons do they have to refute?
Keep your head down and do it! What else can you do?
However, they all found that their mother's personality began to change after she recognized her as her grandmother.
I speak fluently, and I no longer hang my head all day long without daring to speak or crying.
Nowadays, children are taught without repetition, and they are taken out for the whole day. If anyone wants to be lazy, the education will be stopped immediately.
What they can't bear the most is that you, the eldest sister, have been working hard to support our family at a young age, and yet you still complain so much when I ask you to pick wild vegetables.
They all know that the eldest sister is working hard, and when their mother talks about her in this way, they all start to miss their eldest sister, and they feel exhausted.
Wang Cuihua also noticed that the children, who had been raised by the eldest daughter in the past few months, were very naughty and lazy.
At least it’s different from when I went out looking for food when I was hungry, and I would complain when I was tired.
She knew that the eldest daughter had money and small yellow croakers there, but she had to show off to the villagers, otherwise their family would not even eat wild vegetables, just waiting to make people suspicious. That would be fatal.
