In the past six months, Shen Yulin has always found various reasons to leave Shen Yuxiu behind, and has always had various excuses not to go to and from school with her. And every time Shen Yuxiu wanted to follow her, Shen Yulin would say that it was

In a competition between men, it is not good for girls to participate.

One time, Shen Yuxiu couldn't help but followed her curiously, wanting to know what a competition between men was. As a result, she saw her second brother and several boys competing to see who could pee farther.

Shen Yuxiu saw black lines all over her head at that time.

Although she was not very old yet, she generally understood that some things could easily cause needle holes, so from now on, as long as Shen Yulin said he would not take her with him, she would never follow him.

Besides, whoever likes to see how stupid each of them looks is not ashamed of themselves.

In this way, Shen Yulin walked for a while, and Shen Yuxiu finished his meal leisurely, washed the dishes and put them in the cupboard, then picked up his schoolbag and walked out.

She walked out of the yard and had just closed the door and picked up the lock to lock it when she suddenly heard a muffled thump at the corner of the wall.

Shen Yuxiu's hand that locked the door paused, and she curiously poked her head towards the corner with the lock in her hand, and saw a boy in ragged clothes lying on the ground there.

The boy lay prone on the ground. The tearing pain in his stomach made it impossible for him to get up. His teeth were chattering as he endured the pain. He felt that he might die from the pain soon, but just as he resigned himself to his fate

Just when he was about to pass out and forget it, he noticed that someone seemed to be looking at him. He raised his head despite being dizzy, and met a pair of clear and curious eyes.

When Shen Yuxiu saw his face, she took a breath, not for anything else, but because there were two tubes of blood flowing down from his nose at the moment, and the blood was flowing to the child's lips.

At the same time, he licked the blood again.

So cruel.

Shen Yuxiu's eyes widened in shock, and it took her a long time to come back to her senses. She simply admired this child.

This is a cruel person who even drinks his own blood.

Shen Yuxiu didn't want to care about him at first, after all, she still had to go to school, but when she saw the two tubes of blood under his nose, she kindly asked three times: "You are not from our village, are you? Who are you looking for? You want me to help you find it?"

Sir, will you please?"

When the boy heard this, he shook his head and asked her weakly with pleading eyes: "Can you give me someone to stutter? I, I'm really hungry."

Hearing this, Shen Yuxiu looked at him as if he had some understanding. She said "Wait a moment" and went back to the yard. When she came out again, she had a bowl of rice porridge in her hand and a

Caiwowo.

"This is all the porridge left in the morning. You drink it first and eat the steamed buns later." Shen Yuxiu said and handed the bowl of porridge to him first. After he took it and drank it hungrily,

He handed over the steamed bun again.

While the boy was sitting in the corner devouring his food, Shen Yuxiu took the bowl back to the yard, went to the vegetable patch in the yard and pinched some sweet potato seedlings that had grown long before returning.

"This is a sweet potato seedling. If you go home and plant it in your own plot and water it well, it will produce a lot of sweet potatoes in the fall. My grandpa said that this thing has a high yield. Although eating it all the time will burn your heart, you will be very hungry." Shen Yuxiu said, holding his hand in his hand.

sweet potato seedlings handed to the boy on the ground.

The boy was still chewing the steamed bun in his mouth. When he saw the sweet potato seedlings she handed over, he was stunned for a long time before hesitantly took it.

When Shen Yuxiu saw him picking up the sweet potato seedlings, she didn't say anything, turned around, locked the door, and went to school.

Usually when someone came to her house to help with food or borrow food, she would see her grandma. This is what her grandpa did. If there was any leftover porridge, he would get a wild vegetable steamed bun for the leftover porridge. If there was no leftover porridge, there would be only one steamed bun. When the sweet potato seedlings grow at home, people will pinch a handful of sweet potato seedlings and tell them to go home and plant them in their own plots. They will eventually receive sweet potatoes in the fall.

The boy looked at her back as she gradually walked away, with a surge of warmth in his eyes. The tearing colic in his stomach gradually eased as he had food to satisfy his hunger.

His name is Zhao Hui. Their village has a small population and little land. It has always been a famous lazy village, but it is so poor. These lazy men are not so diligent in tending the fields, and the harvest is naturally not as good as other brigades. Naturally, the amount of food distributed will be less. Those who can eat and drink enough every day are capable and good people.

And his father was one of those lazy guys. Because he had an unreliable father, Zhao Hui could no longer remember what it felt like not to be hungry.

Being hungry was uncomfortable, so Zhao Hui would always dig wild vegetables in the wasteland when they could be dug, or else he would quietly go to the fields to steal some food when no one was paying attention.

But now the weather is very dry, and there are no wild vegetables in the fields. In addition, the summer grain harvest has just been harvested, and the crops in the fields have not grown yet, so he has nowhere to get food.

Seeing that he couldn't bring anything to eat, his parents told him to pretend to be a beggar and go out to beg for food. They also said that he was the older brother and could go out on his own, while the younger brother was younger, so they would take him out with them.

In fact, he also wanted to be with his parents. After all, he didn't ask for food from others in vain, and he was a little worried. But his parents said that it is not necessarily bad for the whole family to be together. If they were separated, they might not be able to ask for food. , you can get it yourself, but you won’t be hungry by then, so it’s better to separate.

Zhao Hui had no experience with this, so he listened to his parents' words and felt that they were very reasonable, so he obediently wandered around the villages begging for food.

But it’s not easy for every household now. At the beginning, he could still ask for a little bit, but later on when people saw that he kept asking for it, they were no longer willing to give it to him. But his parents seemed not as good as him. Every time they went home, they would always He sighed and said that he couldn't get any food, but he could only take a small bite every time he got some food, and then save the money to take it back to his parents and younger brother.

But the less he ate, the less strength he felt. Every time he walked, his legs were like limp noodles and he couldn't drag them. He was always out of breath after walking only a few steps. , he was so dizzy that he wanted to just lie down on the ground and do nothing, but if he kept lying there doing nothing, there would be no food, so he had to fight his way out.

The bowl of sticky porridge and steamed buns given to him by the little girl today was the only food he had eaten in recent days, but after eating it, he felt a little regretful.

He was really hungry. When he saw the food, he ate everything without paying attention. He should have eaten less steamed buns and brought them back to his parents and younger brothers.

Zhao Hui sat on the ground, closed his eyes and rested for a long time. When he slowly regained some strength, he looked at the sweet potato seedlings in his hands, thought about the planting method the girl told him, got up with difficulty, and walked back. .

Since this thing is so good, he has to go home quickly and plant it in the ground. In this way, the sweet potatoes will grow and he will have something to eat. He doesn't have to go out to beg for food every day like a beggar, and he doesn't have to think about where to dig wild vegetables.

Where can I find some food?
