Zhang Yu handed the remaining half of the steamed bun to Xiaobao.

"Xiaobao, I don't want to eat it, you can eat it!"

Xiaobao swallowed and shook his head, "Sister, you work the most, you should eat more."

A six-year-old child is so sensible, and so sensible that it makes people feel distressed. Facing such two cute younger brothers and sisters, Zhang Yu suddenly felt a heroic sense of responsibility in his heart. Otherwise, find a way to make money to raise them well.

.

Zhang Yu put the steamed bun into Xiaobao's hand, "Xiaobao, you can eat it! Don't worry, eldest sister will definitely find a way to make our family's life better, not only to make you full, but also to eat well."

Zhang Yu's confident tone infected Xiaobao. Xiaobao was still a child after all. He believed Zhang Yu's words. He hesitantly picked up the steamed bun and took a bite carefully.

Zhang Yu said to Erniu in a more affirmative tone: "Erniu, you eat too. You and Xiaobao go to school well. Don't worry about not having enough food at home. I will find a way to make sure you have enough to eat."

Zhang Yu's words obviously made Erniu feel a little relieved.

Ever since my grandfather passed away, my eldest sister has been feeling gloomy.

Erniu knew that her eldest sister was under a lot of pressure. Even when her eldest sister said she was not feeling well, Erniu was very afraid that her eldest sister would become ill like her grandfather. Now that she saw that her eldest sister was in good health, she even suddenly became strong and said this.

These sonorous and powerful words, although Erniu didn't know what method the eldest sister would come up with to make their family live a better life, these words were more or less a comfort to them.

At least, the eldest sister's current state is better than before, and the appearance of Ai Ai in the period makes them feel at ease.

After dinner, Erniu and Xiaobao went hunting for pigweed with bamboo baskets on their backs.

Zhang Yu was in a daze at home.

Although she told the big story, she couldn't think of what she should do to live a better life at home.

Zhang Yu was an only child, and her parents were both police officers. Although they were busy with work and couldn't take care of her, she had no worries about food and clothing since she was a child.

She has no brothers or sisters, nor the responsibilities and experience of being a sister. However, her parents have ignored her since she was a child. She was raised by her grandmother who is a retired primary school teacher. Her grandmother is different from other old people and does not spoil her at all.

Zhang Yu was cultivated in the habit of self-improvement and self-reliance from an early age.

Therefore, Zhang Yu is self-disciplined and independent whether in study or life.

It's a pity that my grandma passed away when Zhang Yu was in his second year of college, and she didn't have time to enjoy the rewards of her granddaughter.

Zhang Yu looked at the three dilapidated adobe houses here. There was nothing valuable in them. There were only two bowls of rice, five eggs, a few potatoes, and a few sweet potatoes in the kitchen.

If eaten freely, this food would only be enough for three or four days.

There is a piglet weighing more than 20 pounds in the pig pen in the yard, and there are three hens in the chicken coop next to it.

I'm afraid that the most valuable thing in this family is this pig and these three bastards!

Seeing that the family is about to run out of food, the top priority now is how to get food so that the family can have enough to eat.

In this era, and in rural areas, food is self-sufficient. The rice at home will not be harvested for another month, so there is no other solution except borrowing.

However, my grandfather fell ill a month ago and owed more than 80 yuan for the famine. It may be difficult to borrow food again, not to mention that other people may not have much food storage this season.

Just when Zhang Yu was at home thinking hard about how to solve the current predicament, there was the sound of cars and noisy people at the door of his house.

In this era, cars were a rarity. Zhang Yu pushed open the door curiously and saw a jeep parked at the door, with many villagers watching.

A young man got out of the car and helped an old man down. They were well-dressed, and they looked like they were from the city.

Zhang Yu stared blankly at them walking towards her.

The old man smiled at Zhang Yu and said, "Big girl, this is my grandson, Zhao Chunhua."

In a flash of lightning, Zhang Yu realized that these were Zhao Jianbin, the comrade-in-arms of the original grandfather, and his grandson Zhao Chunhua.

They heard the news that Zhang Da Niu's grandfather died of illness, so they came here.

Zhang Yu hurriedly smiled and greeted warmly, "Oh! So it's Grandpa Zhao! Come in quickly."

Zhang Yu accidentally looked at a face with clear outlines. There was curiosity and inquiry in his eyes.

Zhang Yu welcomed the Zhao family's grandfather and grandson into her home. She found a rag and wiped the stools and asked them to sit in the yard.

There was no hot water at home, and Zhang Yu didn't know how to burn a wood stove.

Just as she was about to light firewood to boil water, Zhao Jianbin stopped her.

"Big girl, don't be busy. We are not thirsty. Come over here. I have something to say."

Zhang Yu could only sit in front of Zhao Jianbin.

"Da Niu, I received your letter yesterday and found out that your grandpa passed away. Alas! I didn't even see him for the last time."

The details in real life are different from those in the book. The book does not say that it was Zhang Da Niu who wrote the letter telling the Zhao family about the death of their grandfather.

Zhao Jianbin sighed, "Actually, a month ago, I received a letter from your grandfather. He said that he felt that his health was getting worse and worse. He said that if he passed away one day, he would like to send your sister to you.

The three brothers were entrusted to our care. Hey, I should have come to see him a long time ago, but who knew he would leave so quickly without even seeing him for the last time."

Zhao Chunhua on the side explained, "Grandpa originally planned to come earlier, but during this period, his health was not good, so he never came. Unexpectedly, Grandpa Zhang..."

Zhang Yu knew Zhao Jianbin's feelings for Grandpa Zhang, and she said with relief: "No one thought that my grandpa would leave so quickly. You can come now. My grandpa knows a lot and is satisfied."

There are many people who go out to enjoy tea, and a place like Grandpa Zhao’s is already very rare.

"Da Niu, your grandfather asked us before his death that if he leaves, let us take care of you three siblings. You can pack up and follow us to the provincial city of Nancheng!"

Zhang Yu thought that if she wanted to be self-reliant, it would be difficult for her to rely on herself under such harsh conditions. It would be best if someone could help her at this time.

What's more, she knows nothing about farming and can't even burn a firewood stove. If she is asked to support her two younger siblings by farming in the countryside, she has no chance of winning. If the Zhao family can bring the three siblings to the city,

Coupled with their help, she believed that she and her younger siblings could live a good life.

However, Zhang Yu still gave in and said humbly: "How dare I bother you, Grandpa Zhao!"

"You kid, why are you so polite to me? This is what your grandfather asked me to do. Do you want me to break my promise to your grandfather? How will I explain to him when I go underground?"
