Chapter 368
Chapter 368 Instruction
After dinner, Li Ma looked at the three luggage in the main hall, and the sadness in her heart once again came to her heart.
As soon as the three children left, she and four elderly people were left at home. It would take half a year to meet the children.
"Mom, you go with us to the backyard and have some things to tell you."
Li Chengji pulled Li's mother to the backyard. Seeing Li's mother's face full of reluctance, he felt reluctant.
"What's the matter? I have to go to the backyard to say it, it's so mysterious!"
Li Chengji and Li Xiaoyu both smiled at her mysteriously. This smile made Li Mom even more curious. Is there really a secret at home? She didn't notice it at all, and what was the difference?
Li Chengji lifted the big pot on the stove, pushed the stone slab underneath, and took the lead in drilling down. Li's mother was stunned. Why is this the same as the movie, and there is also a secret passage?
"Mom, come down quickly!" Li Chengji didn't hear the movement and stretched out his head and shouted.
"Hey! Hey! Come!" Li Ma did it in a daze, not awake at all.
Li Xiaoyu, who was following behind, saw that she was always wandering when walking. It seemed that only the reaction of her mother was the normal reaction.
Li Chengji opened the stone door and asked Li Ma to see the supplies inside. Li Ma saw that there were baskets, sacks, and jars inside. He walked up to take a closer look.
Rice, gray noodles, eggs, wax goods, rapeseed oil, lard, and a pile of red potatoes. Even honey has two small jars, and there are two large frames of live chickens and live rabbits.
"This, this, where did these things come from? Have you gone to the black market again? Didn't you tell you not to go? I promised it well, why should I go back on my word?"
Li's mother was so anxious that she burst into tears. The brother and sister were covered in black lines. Where did they follow?
"Mom, we didn't go to the black market. We saved up all of them before. Now I tell you that I am afraid that after we leave, we will not have enough food at home.
These two living things were obtained recently. There have been people in the family who have been in contact with each other, so they have not taken them out. You can keep them in the backyard in the future, so it is convenient to eat some meat.
You should also be careful when going to and from get off work. Dad is not at home, so don’t chat with some people with bad intentions.”
Li Chengji told Li Mom the source of these things half-truely, and finally made her realize that this was not just exchanged for the three children.
"Mom, you can just know about the secret passage alone. After all, the four old people in the family are old, so don't let them scare you.
But you must remember the importance of this secret passage. The materials hidden here are enough for a year at home. Don’t worry too much, so that everyone can eat enough."
Li Xiaoyu took out a bulging envelope from her body and handed it to Li's mother and said, "Mom, it's five hundred yuan here. You can use it. Liu Qiuxian still has two hundred yuan.
If she comes to buy flawed cloth again, don’t sell too much to her. What you are afraid of is that if the incident is involved in you and Aunt Qin, it will have a bad impact on you."
"I don't want it. You are away from home and have more money. The money you gave me last time was useless. You paid for the family's expenses, and I saved all the salary.
Mom will give you three brothers and sisters a hundred yuan each later. Mom has only this ability. You must be well outside. Mom will be relieved. Don’t worry at home, we can take good care of ourselves."
Li Xiaoyu stuffed the envelope into Li Ma's pocket. She was afraid that if the family urgently needed money, Li Ma couldn't take it out, and Li's father was not at home, so she asked her to borrow it by a wife.
In this era, there were not many families who could save hundreds of dollars at home. Even though Li's personality, she couldn't open her mouth to borrow money from others. It would be best to leave some money for her.
"Mom, you can just take out these foods for a few days at a time. It is not very conspicuous when paired with your supply."
Li's mother's tears were even more fierce. When the children were about to go out, the one who was the mother was the one who was the mother, she felt that she was useless and had to worry about the children.
"Mom will wait for you to come back at home..."
The brother and sister put two frames of living things into the secret room, built two simple nests in the backyard, and temporarily placed the chicken and rabbit inside.
None of the four elderly people in the front yard went to bed and were still waiting for them, with the purpose of teaching them the experience of going out.
The three brothers and sisters heard the experience of the ears and nodded directly with humility on their faces, and were let go by the four old men.
After leaving the main hall, Li Xiaoyu gave each of his two brothers an envelope: "Take it for you, take it yourself, don't drop it!"
"Little sister, do you treat your brother as a child? You give him pocket money!" Li Chengji smiled.
"That's right, if you want to give it, you will give it in the future!"
Li Chengji slapped Li Chengyi on the back and cursed with a smile: "Is it shameless? Such a big man even asked my younger sister for pocket money. He had everything in school and had money to take. Don't ask my younger sister for money again!"
"Hehe, second brother, we can't let my little sister's kindness go!" Li Chengyi smiled and put the envelope in his pocket.
"Everyone goes to bed early, you have to get up early tomorrow, don't stay in bed!" After saying that, Li Chengji ignored the two and went back to the house to sleep.
In the main hall, Grandpa Li was sitting at the door smoking, while Old Man Yan sat with him at the door.
"What? I can't bear to leave you! The eagle always has to leave their nests when they grow up, and the sky outside is their world."
"I'm a little reluctant to let it go. After all, I've grown up in front of me. Now I've left three. We're really old. Alas!"
"Old man Li, I know you are happy and want people to envy you. To be honest, I envy you very much!
Who can be unhappy with such a family and descendants in your life? Congratulations! Your Li family’s ancestral tomb is really emitting smoke.”
Old Man Yan was so worried that he went back to the house. Old Man Li came to tease him, his heart was so sad! Why did he encounter good things? God, you are really unfair!
On the 23rd (the 24th day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar), this day is Li Xiaoyu's thirteenth birthday, the 24th (the 25th day of the lunar calendar) is Li Chengyi's 17th birthday, and Li Chengji's 19th birthday is the 27th (the 28th day of the lunar calendar).
The three brothers and sisters who have never celebrated their birthdays cannot celebrate a birthday this year. Instead, they go out with their hot boiled eggs in the morning light with their luggage on their backs.
Behind were the reluctant gazes of four old men and Li Ma. The five kept waving to the three figures walking away, hoping that they could be safe all the way.
When passing by the post office, Li Xiaoyu put the letter to Wang Tietou into the postbox, telling him that he would go to Beijing to go to college and contact him when he arrived at a new place.
The brother and sister, carrying their luggage, arrived at the provincial capital station at 2 pm. Li Chengyi looked at the crowd coming and going in the station and sighed.
"It's really worthy of being a provincial capital. There are even more people taking the bus, and the clothes these people wear are better-looking than those in the county."
Li Xiaoyu suspected that there was something wrong with Li Chengyi's eyes. The style and color of the clothes these people wore were not much different from those of the county town. Where did he see that they looked good?
