Big businessman and little fisherman

Chapter 17 Eccentricity
In the cabin, Lu Xiaoyu took things out as if showing off.

"This pig's trotter was specially bought by Xiaosi for my mother to make soup." Lu Xiaoyu shook the pig's trotter in his hand, "Aunt Ding said, pig's trotters and soybeans are used to make soup together, and the milk is the best." .”

Hearing that it was used to make soup for the Qiu family, Lu Xiaoli didn't say a word.

She was willing to give food to her mother, even if Xiao Wu didn't ask her and eldest sister to spend the copper coins, she didn't think there was anything wrong.

Lu Xiaoyu hugged the basket, and took out a big pig bone inside from the lotus leaf: "This big pig bone is added by Mrs. Ding, who bought pig's feet, and Xiaosi said to make soup for us to drink together." .”

Saying that, Lu Xiaoyu couldn't help but gulp down his mouth.

Boiled pork bone soup, has she never had big bone soup since she grew up?

I don't know if it tastes better than fish soup.

Lu Xiaoli looked at the bare and meatless pig bones, his face darkened, but he didn't say anything.

Xiao Si said that it was adding the head, so it was the addition of the head.

She just wants to know how much copper coins Xiaosi and Xiaoyu have left to buy Zongye.

If there is a lot left, can she divide one penny into two pennies?

Even if she didn't get a penny, if she had more copper coins at home, she could always buy more rice and eat for a few more days.

After Lu Xiaoyu showed off the pig's feet wrapped in lotus leaves, he wiped his hands with the rag on the table, and took out a slightly yellowed white cloth from the basket with his fingertips.

"Cloth? Where did you get the cloth?"

Lu Xiaoli rushed over suddenly, grabbed the white cotton cloth and shook it out, looked and looked, compared and compared, "Who did you buy this cloth for?"

She and her eldest sister have already started to learn how to do needlework, so they naturally know that such a large piece of cloth is enough for her to make a gown, and there are more.

However, it should be barely possible to make a body for Xiaosi or Xiaoyu.

"Xiao Si bought it."

Lu Xiaoyu looked at the cloth in Lu Xiaoli's hand, and his expression became more and more complacent.

This cloth is very cheap to buy, it was bought by Xiao Si at a cloth store, and it only cost seventeen Wen.

Seventeen cents, but pig's feet and big bones cost twenty cents.

She had never seen such a cheap cloth, it was Xiao Si who was smart and got such a big deal.

"How much does this cost!"

Looking at the cloth in his hand, Xiao Li was on the verge of crying: "Did Xiao Si spend all the money for selling zong leaves today? He knew that for himself..."

Xiaosi is a real prodigal, buying such things.

"No."

Lu Xiaoyu interrupted Lu Xiaoli, and snatched the white cotton cloth: "I bought this for Xiao Wu, and Xiao Si said to make clothes for Xiao Wu."

Xiao Wu hasn't worn any clothes since he was born. He is wrapped in a quilt in winter. Now that the weather is hot, he doesn't even have a piece of cloth on his body, and he is wrapped in a quilt all day long.

Hearing a few sisters mentioning him, Lu Xiaowu staggered and supported the edge of the bed to stand up, and yelled twice.

"What clothes does he want to wear?" Lu Xiaoli stared at Lu Xiaowu who was staggering and trying to lean on the bed, "I can't even walk."

Lu Xiaoyu was also angry, and refuted the second sister loudly: "If you can't walk, you don't need to wear clothes?"

Xiao Si said it was bought for Xiao Wu, so it was bought for Xiao Wu, and even the second sister was not allowed to object.

The clothes at home, Xiaoqing wears through Xiaoli, and Xiaoli wears through Xiaoyu, the clothes are ragged and tattered, Qiu is not willing to wear them for Xiaowu, saying that Xiaowu is still young and doesn't need to wear clothes.The good cloth is removed and left to be patched, and the bad one, which is about to rotten, is pasted and the soles of the shoes are kept.

Lu Xiaoqing took the white cotton cloth that Xiaoyu handed over, unfolded it and put it in front of his eyes.

The fine and dense white cotton cloth is very soft to the touch, not as prickly as coarse cloth.There were several holes bitten by rats in three places, and they were also stained with urine. I don't know if they can be cleaned.

Still, even so, it was the best cloth she had ever seen.

Lu Xiaoqing measured it with his hands, and it was five feet.

This piece of cloth was pieced together to make a long-sleeved gown and trousers for Xiaosi, and a short-sleeved gown and trousers.However, if it is for Xiaosi or Xiaoyu to make a body, it can barely do it.

"Why buy it for Xiao Wu?" Lu Xiaoli was not convinced.

The little brother didn't do anything, so why buy it for him.

If you want to buy it, you should buy it for her. Over the years, every time my father and mother made new clothes, they made them for the elder sister, and then she wore things that the elder sister couldn't wear.

She also wants to have her own new clothes.

"Why can't I buy it for Xiao Wu?"

Lu Xiaoyu felt that the second sister was getting worse and worse: "I bought it for Xiao Wu, not for others to wear, and Xiao Wu doesn't have any clothes yet."

"He's so young, what kind of clothes does he wear? If he buys it, he should give it to me... My eldest sister and I should buy it."

Lu Xiaoli blushed a little after she finished speaking, and secretly cast a glance at her elder sister.

Now she feels more and more that her parents are biased. When her mother gave birth to Xiao Wu, she didn't feel that Xiao Wu drank milk and didn't compete with their sisters for food.But since Xiao Si came, she found that her parents' eyes were on Xiao Si, giving Xiao Si all good things.

The family managed to save some money, and bought medicine for Xiaosi to cook porridge.

Xiaosi and Xiaowu just have one more chirp than her, so why are their parents so partial.

To take care of the elderly, she can also take care of her parents. If her parents give her rice porridge and cloth bag rice, she is also willing to take care of her parents. Why must Xiaosi and Xiaowu be required.

"Okay."

Lu Xiaoqing is the eldest sister, seeing Lu Xiaoli's temper getting worse and worse, she could only remind her softly, "Let, parents, hear..."

If parents heard Xiao Li talking like that, they would definitely be angry.

Making clothes for Xiao Wu, not for others, why not.

"That's right, second sister, you are too stingy." Xiao Yu raised his hand to tease Xiao Wu who was trying to learn to walk next to him, "Why can't you make new clothes for our Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu is our little brother, right? Ah, Little Five."

The ignorant little five only knew how to scream "ahhh", and excitedly raised his hand to grab Xiaoyu's fingers, completely ignorant of what the sisters were talking about.

Lu Xiaoli was about to shed tears of grievance, seeing that her sister and sister didn't help her, she slammed the door out angrily.

She knew that she was the most unpopular in the whole family.

She also wants to wear new clothes, why every time the new clothes are made at home, they are made for the elder sister, why should the delicious food be eaten by the little four and the fifth...

Xiaoyu looked blankly at the wooden door that was closed and then opened. She didn't understand why the second sister was not happy. It was such a good thing to sell so many copper coins today. Why is the second sister not happy?

never mind!

If you don't understand it, don't think about it anymore, Xiao Yu took down her wreath and showed it to Xiao Wu: "This is the wreath your fourth brother made for me, isn't it beautiful?"

The colorful flowers made Xiao Wu's little hands scratch, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

Lu Xiaoqing put the cloth in his hand on the bed and gestured back and forth, calculating how to avoid the holes and still make a suit of clothes.

The weather is getting hot, and Xiao Si doesn't have a decent dress yet.

Xiao Wu is still young and grows fast, so he doesn't need to make new clothes, so why not make this piece of cloth for Xiao Si, and when Xiao Si wears small clothes in the future, he can continue to wear them for Xiao Wu.

This is not wasted.

It would have been nice if the cloth hadn't been white though.Even if it is black, khaki is better than white.

White clothes are not resistant to dirt after all!
