Chapter 2 Being the Eldest Sister (1)

Since the first thing to do, collecting information is the first step.

Xiao Ruo hasn't spoken much since she woke up, one is probably because she has been in a coma for a long time, her voice is hoarse and dry, and the other is that she says too many mistakes, so it's better to listen to other people's words.

When people asked her how she was feeling, she just pursed her lips and smiled, and then coughed a few times, so that others knew to stop talking and stop chasing and chatting.

After a few days of recuperation and other people's narration, Xiaoruo got a clear idea of ​​the general situation of this reborn world.

The original body is also called Xiaoruo. I don't know how to write the characters, but the pronunciation is the same.The original parents passed away three months ago. It is said that they both passed away suddenly due to illness, leaving behind 16-year-old Xiaoruo and two five- or six-year-old twin siblings.

This family is not rich. When the parents were alive, they relied on an acre of Susukida to cultivate the family's rations. During the slack, the father copied letters for others to earn a meager salary. Just give a few copper coins, and sometimes take home-made pickles or eggs instead of letter money.

Although he didn't save much money, he didn't lack food and drink for his three children.Yuanzheng and his two siblings could be seen to be well-raised to the naked eye, with fair skin and neat clothes. They were completely different from the dark skin of other children in the village who were scrambling around in rural ravines.Especially the two twin siblings, who have not lost the baby fat on their cheeks at the age of five or six, and their arms are chubby like lotus joints, like a pair of dragon and phoenix dolls walking out of a New Year painting.

Xiao Ruo even discovered that in this country where people generally do not know a few big characters, her cheap younger siblings can not only recite enlightenment literature such as "Hundred Surnames" and "San Zi Jing", but can also simply calculate the number of people within a hundred. addition and subtraction.

It seems that the original parents are not ordinary rural farmhouses. In ordinary farmhouses, there is room for piling taro seeds and firewood, and there is no free space for bookshelves.There is more than one bookshelf in this home, and there are all kinds of books on the shelves, from agricultural medicine to actuarial deduction, there are a total of a hundred volumes.

Maybe it's a declining scholarly family?I heard that my father and mother fled to this small village decades ago. Seeing that the water and soil here are quite beautiful, they settled down here and raised their children.

However, Xiaoruo didn't have time to continue to wonder where the deceased parents came from, and now she has a lot of troubles that are imminent.

The first thing is that she just woke up to be the lame Zhang forced to marry by Aunt Zhang.

This lame Zhang was not from his own village, but from a family in the east of the next village eighteen miles away.When his parents were alive, Lame Zhang sent his only son to Xiaoruo's house for a while, saying that he would give him some repairs so that Xiaoruo's father could teach him how to read and count.

In fact, Tu Xiaoruo's father is not a serious private school teacher, just taking advantage of a place to learn characters.

The so-called Shu Xiu has never actually appeared under the nose.

This limping Zhang's son is called Zhang Guangzong. I don't know if it's genetic or something else. His left leg is also a little lame, and he walks with a limp. For this reason, other children in the village ridicule him and call him a little lame. Only Xiaoruo didn't laugh at him. , coupled with Xiaoruo's delicate features since she was a child, and her big shiny eyes that look like little crescent moons when she smiles, this little cripple is still thinking about Xiaoruo.

Every time Zhang Guangzong went home, he had to talk to the lame Zhang about marrying Xiaoruo in the future. The number of times he talked about it was too much. In addition, Mrs. Zhang had a big mouth. Somehow in the village next door, word spread that Xiaoruo was engaged to her. Zhang Guangzong's.

Rumors spread very quickly in the village, and within a few days the rumor of the engagement reached the village, and of course it also reached the ears of Xiaoruo's parents.

At that time, Xiaoruo had just turned ten years old, and the flower buds hadn't grown yet, so she couldn't be cut off by rumors.

Xiaoruo's father hurriedly sent Zhang Guangzong back to the lame Zhang family, and made it clear that he would no longer be taught to read and write, and please don't have any more contact with him in the future, and Xiaoruo will not be engaged to Zhang Guangzong.

But this lame Zhang has no other specialties, and his lack of advantage and thick skin is particularly prominent.Even though Xiaoruo's father made it so clear in front of everyone, he still told the little cripple to run to Xiaoruo's house on time.

After a few closed doors at Xiaoruo’s house, from time to time, the little cripple would bring some cheap wild goods like Malantou and Xiaoyuzai to the door. It took a few more months of hard work, and it was not even clear in the end. He said to the public that his family and Xiaoruo's family are distant cousins, but they are cousins ​​for several lifetimes. Xiaoruo's parents really can't explain it clearly, so they simply follow the lame Zhang family. Yes, at most, they don’t teach, don’t ask, and don’t hear.

It was going on like this, but Xiaoruo's parents passed away suddenly, and Xiaoruo had just passed away.Limp Zhang looked at Xiaoruo's face like a spring flower and the two houses at home, and his thoughts arose, clamoring everywhere that he, as a distant cousin, had to take care of Xiaoruo.

The lame Zhang's mother-in-law dug up the old news again, saying that Xiaoruo was her son's daughter-in-law, so she naturally wanted to come to her house. She also said that Xiaoruo's two younger siblings were ten years apart from Xiaoruo. It must not be her parents' own seed, maybe it was picked up in the wild, so Xiaoruo drove away the two oil bottles early and brought the family's things as dowry to their house.

Xiao Ruo became more and more annoyed as she listened to it. She, Captain Xiao, hadn't been subjected to such bird anger for more than ten years. If it was before she was reborn, a brazen family like Limp Zhang would have been set on fire by her. Maybe all the ashes were thrown away by her.

But after rebirth, not to mention the fire ability, with such a thin body, it is difficult to lift a hoe, and it is even someone else's ashes.

This reborn dynasty is still in the farming period. After the sun goes down, there is no entertainment at all. Everyone goes home early to rest and sleep.

The village gradually fell into silence, as long as occasionally a few bean-like lamps poured on the ground from the unclosed window lattice. After all, this lamp oil is not cheap, and most people are still reluctant to prepare extra lamp oil at home.

Among them is Xiaojia.

Xiaoruo and her siblings sat around a small table and had dinner.It was said that it was dinner, but it was actually four sheets of hard pancakes and fried shepherd's purse with bacon sent by Mrs. Zhang.

The pancakes were baked by younger sister Xiaoyou, and the firewood was set up by younger brother Xiaozhao, who still had a few streaks of soot on his little face that hadn't been wiped clean.Xiaoruo doesn't know how to cook. She has been drinking nutrient solution most of the time for more than ten years. Occasionally, to improve her food, she will go to the physical restaurant opened by food lovers in the base to have a tooth-fighting festival.

Aunt Zhang felt distressed seeing the three brothers and sisters gnawing hard pancakes, so she hurried home and cooked a dish for them to eat.

Although Aunt Zhang didn't say anything clearly, she just told Xiao Niao and Xiao Zhao to listen to her sister, but Xiao Ruo still saw a trace of anger from Aunt Zhang's frown.

Indeed, 16 years old is not too young in this dynasty. It is reasonable to take care of the housework, not to mention that the younger brother and sister are only five or six years old. They are real children, but they need younger brothers and sisters to take care of their elder sisters.Xiaoruo also felt extremely uncomfortable.

"Niaoyiao." Xiaoruo picked up a chopstick of bacon for her younger sister. "My sister fell down the mountain a while ago and made you worry. Can you tell my sister what happened before she fell down the mountain?"

Xiao Niao looked at the small piece of bacon that was glowing red in the bowl, bit the tip of the chopsticks and took a bite, then put the meat back into Xiao Ruo's bowl. "Sister, don't you remember?" The chubby little face seemed to have faded recently, not as fresh as Xiaoruo's first sight.

"My sister said that I would go up the mountain to pick red berries for you, and let my brother and you wait at home, but you and my brother waited at home for a long time, but my sister didn't come back, and the sun was almost setting." Xiaoyou said As he spoke, he frowned, his facial features huddled together, like a small meat bun that hasn't been steamed yet.

"Later the crippled grandpa came!" Xiao Zhao rushed to say, "The crippled grandpa brought Brother Yaoyao with him! The two of them came together, as soon as they came, they opened the door and shouted to find sister!"

The elder brother Yao Yao that Xiao Zhao mentioned was Zhang Guangzong. As he got older, he walked more and more wobbly, so Xiao Zhao and Xiao Niao called him Brother Yao Yao.

"Yeah, I said my sister was not here, but the crippled grandpa still didn't believe me, and said I lied to him." Xiaoyou muttered while chewing the vegetables, "The crippled grandpa must come in to see if my sister is there. At the door, the crippled grandpa pushed my younger brother down and said something about two broken bottles..."

Xiao Niao imitated Lie Zhang's movements and tone at that time, raised her chopsticks and softly pushed against the air.

Xiaoruo knew that it was the lame Zhang who bullied the two children, and called them a fool.

She gritted her molars resentfully. Although these two cheap siblings were not her own siblings, they were smart and cute, obedient and soft.Ever since she woke up, she stuck to her side every day, screaming one sister at a time, wanting to stuff her with any delicious food, and acting like a baby to her to make her get well soon.

Xiaoruo has already classified these two dolls into her own protection range, since she has taken over the original body, she naturally has to take good care of her younger siblings for her.

"However, grandpa cripple and elder brother Yaoyao saw that my sister was really gone, so they left, and pulled out a lot of carrots that my sister had planted at the door..." Xiao Zhao also frowned, because he felt sorry for his sister planted carrots.

My sister has been very busy since my parents left. I have to go to the fields every day to look at the seedlings, and I have to feed the chickens and ducks when I come back. This carrot was planted by my sister in the dark, and it finally grew to the size of a finger. Suddenly being pulled out a lot, he really felt distressed.

Seeing the same wrinkled faces of the two dolls, Xiaoruo felt distressed. She hugged the two into her arms and rubbed their chubby faces: "It's okay, we can still plant the carrots. Zhao Zhao was pushed down." Does it hurt?"

Xiao Zhao clenched his fist in a manly manner: "It doesn't hurt! Daddy said a man bleeds but doesn't shed tears! Zhao Zhao didn't bleed either!" The masculinity disappeared in a flash, and Xiao Zhao immediately buried his head in the elder sister's shoulder mumbling. "Not long after the crippled grandpa left, my sister was sent back by Uncle Liu and his uncles. At that time, my sister didn't move, her face was as white as snow, she was so frightened..."

Listening to her younger brother muttering, Xiao Niao followed suit and buried her head in the elder sister's other shoulder. "You are also terrified, you are crying..."
