"It's good to be better. You live in a remote place. No one goes up the mountain on weekdays, and people in the village hardly pass by your door. If something happens, you need to know to come here and shout, otherwise the villagers will

I don’t know. Your second uncle is also very hard-hearted. If I hadn’t gone with your Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang that day, Wenbo and Wenhao would have been taken away by that man. You fainted, Wenbo and the other little ones

I only know how to cry, even if I am a child, it is of no use." Li Changming sighed as he spoke. This orphan without a father and mother is already pitiful, but having a biological uncle is worse than not having one at all.

"I haven't thanked my uncle for what happened that day!"

"Since you call me uncle, don't say thank you. I have ignored you in the past two years. After your father passed away, your second uncle's family came out and said that you are too young to farm.

, they gave you grain and vegetables, and his family used the fields to plant them. I always thought that his family was raising a few of you, but I didn’t expect it to be like this. You are a bastard whose conscience was eaten by a dog.

.”

In this era, orphans who had no father or mother were usually raised by their uncles. If there were no biological uncles, they would be raised by the clan. There were also those who had no relatives alive, then they would be raised by the village. Everyone

Li Xin's second uncle's family originally offered to raise a few children, and Li Changming was very happy. He thought that although Li Changgui was a bit of a bastard on weekdays, he was still good at things that needed to be done.

It's not ambiguous. Li Xin's yard is a bit far away from the village. He lives directly at the foot of the mountain. In the past, he couldn't get there even if he passed by. He always thought that the children were fine.

It wasn't until what happened a few days ago that he realized that Li Changgui and his wife treated several children so harshly. But knowing that he knew it, he couldn't take it too seriously, so he just scolded the couple. Uncle and nephew

After all, the niece's affairs are family matters, and even as the village chief, he cannot interfere casually.

"I came to see my uncle today because I wanted to talk about this matter. Although my second uncle cultivated my family's fields, he didn't give us the food we should have. I thought it would be better if he didn't have enough to eat like this.

Take the family farm back and plant it. Even if our children can’t plant it, we can rent it out and get some food back.”

"That's fine. Originally, I wanted to wait a few years before talking about this matter. You siblings are young after all, and Wenbo is only nine years old! You can farm whatever you want. You see, you must get the land back.

Or should you let the village come forward and ask your second uncle's family to replenish the food for you? Although your second uncle is heartless, he is the elder of your family, so it's not easy to break up with him. You are still young, and there will be situations in the future where you need the help of your elders.

It’s a matter of making up your mind.”

"I still want to get the fields back. In fact, even if we just ask for a little food, we have already offended them. In this case, why should we tolerate everything because we are afraid of offending them. Originally, they should give us the food, but we

Every time we went to report that we were out of food, they would resist us and look very ugly. Sometimes they would not even let us in. Even if we asked ten times, they would only give us two or three times, and each time they would only give us a little bit.

.If it weren’t for Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang’s support in the past two years, we, my sister and brother, probably wouldn’t have survived to this point.”

"Okay, now that you have made up your mind, let them return the fields to you. But you can't just return them now. There is still wheat in the world! After two months, the wheat will be harvested and they will be planted for you next season.

.Look at what you want to plant. If it is rice, you have to prepare it when you go back. Don't let the seedlings go to the fields by then. Even if you plant it, you will not have food to eat until autumn. I will discuss it with your second uncle.

Let’s see, I’ll give you some food so that you can eat it until autumn.”

"Then thank you uncle."

"Are you saying thank you or not? Don't show off like this."

After the matter was settled, and they sat and chatted for a while, Li Xin was ready to leave. But the village chief suddenly got up and took a basket and filled them with some rice, noodles and some fresh vegetables. Finally, he also put a piece of meat on it.

, and asked them to take it back to eat. Li Xin originally wanted to refuse, but the village chief made a serious face and said that if she didn't take it, she would not recognize him as an uncle, so she had to accept it. The basket contained more things, so it was heavier.

She and Wen Hao carried it out together, and the village chief also took them out for a long time.

"Okay, uncle, don't send it off. We're going back now." Seeing that they were almost reaching the old osmanthus tree, Li Xin asked the village chief not to send it off.

"Okay, then you should be careful and don't fall. If anything happens, just come over and call me. When it's time to plow the fields, let me know. I have cows at home. I can just take the cows to plow for you for a few days. You guys

With such a small body, there is a lot of work to be done.”

"I understand, uncle, please go back quickly! We will definitely tell you if anything happens."

The village chief turned around and went home, and Li Xin took Wen Hao all the way home. Carrying the full basket, Li Xin felt warm in her heart. She didn't expect that the village chief was such a good person.

It is a blessing for the villagers to have such a village chief here!

"We finally have meat to eat." Wen Hao looked at the meat in the basket and almost drooled. The meat was such a big piece! It should have weighed three to four kilograms anyway.

"Uncle the village chief is a very kind man."

"Yes! The village chief's uncle has always been a good person. When my sister was injured, it was the doctor whom the village chief's uncle paid for!"

"That's it!" It seems that the favor she owes the village chief is getting bigger and bigger, but there is nothing she can do now. Who made their family so poor? They are so poor that they can't blame them, and she really has no way to refuse help from others.

.Such a favor can only be repaid slowly after the family's life improves in the future.

Don’t think about it for now. If you have too many debts, you don’t have to worry. If you have too many lice, you don’t need to itch. Anyway, you have already owed it, so any words you say are just pretentious. It’s better to enjoy the kindness of others and live up to that kindness.

When they got home, Wenbo and the others were very happy to see such a basket of food. When they saw the piece of meat again, their eyes began to shine. There was no way, who made this family so poor that several children

I almost forget the taste of meat.

At noon, Li Xin cooked a pot of white rice, made radish soup and fried bamboo shoots and meat slices. The children ate them all. Wen Hao even mixed the last bit of juice left in the vegetable bowl.

The meal is eaten.

"Sister, the meat is so delicious." Yueting's face was full of smiles. She was the child who had never had a good life in the family. Her mother died in childbirth when she was born. She didn't even take a sip of breast milk. She never had a good life.

People who drink goat milk have been in a daze since childhood. After my mother passed away, the family's labor force suddenly decreased, and the family's life became more and more difficult. Later, my father became ill, and the family's life became even more difficult. The only thing

I also spent a little of my savings. After my father passed away, even having enough food became a luxury for this family. Where could we get meat?

Life in Aunt Zhang's family was not easy either. She was doing her best to save some surplus food to support them. There was no meat left to eat. Therefore, Yue Ting had never eaten meat since she was a child.

"There is still meat! We can eat a few meals if we save a little, and our family's life will get better and better in the future." Li Xin touched Yueting's head. This girl was very thin, and even her hair was thin because of her lack of hair.

The supply of nutrients is yellow and small, and it looks very pitiful. (Please support me! Welcome to fatten up.)
