Chapter 60
When Fang Youshun saw Shen Yuxiu, who was running wildly outside every day, come back, he immediately greeted her with a smile, pointed to the two people opposite and said, "Do you still remember your third grandpa and uncle? Call grandpa and uncle quickly."

Upon hearing this, Shen Yuxiu obediently walked up to Fang Youshun, obediently called the third grandfather and uncle to the two, and then quietly observed the two.

In her memory, the ones who can make her call her third grandpa and uncle are the family members she saw when she begged with her grandparents and went to her hometown, but the family in her memory were all skinny and lifeless. She is still very thin, but she is quite energetic, she dare not admit it.

When Fang Youcheng heard her fragile third grandfather, his face was full of creases with a smile, he looked up and down at her, and kept sighing: "This child grows really fast, he is taller, and more juicy."

"It's true that she has grown taller. If you say Shui Ling is far behind, at most you can barely see it." Fang Youshun laughed, but his eyes were full of pride.

Shen Yuxiu pursed her mouth when she heard it.

Whether it's in the school house or in the village, whoever sees her doesn't say a good word, why can't she just barely see it in the mouth of grandpa?

Fang Youcheng looked at her pouted little mouth, but laughed, and said to Fang Youshun with a face of disapproval: "You can talk nonsense, if this child doesn't grow up well, then other people's little girls will still How do you live?"

Just like that, the two brothers chatted again with Shen Yuxiu, but Shen Yuxiu nodded repeatedly while listening.

Yes, she is really good looking, not only good looking, but also a very obedient child.

So, Shen Yuxiu, who was good-looking and obedient, didn't even talk back, and snuggled softly beside Fang Youshun's leg, listening to the two of them chatting.

It turned out that the reason why the third grandpa came suddenly at this time was because the drought in his hometown this year was worse than last year, the crops in the fields were not harvested, and more and more people came out to beg for food.

It is also because of this, and with the increase in the number of these people, the food is becoming more and more difficult to get. Fang Youcheng thought of what Fang Youshun said last year, so he left all the food to his family and brought his youngest son here to find food. Fang Youshun, he wants to see how this year is going, if it doesn't work, the two of them will go elsewhere.

Shen Yuxiu listened quietly to the conversation between the two, and the pictures he saw last year suddenly appeared in his mind, and a small pimple immediately frowned between his small brows.

Doesn't that mean that the life of the people in my hometown this year is not as good as last year?
In the same way, Fang Youshun couldn't help raising his eyebrows listening to Fang Youcheng's narration, but there was nothing he could do about this natural and man-made disaster. All he could do was to keep the two of them here for the new year and wait for them to leave Give some dried sweet potatoes and grains when the time comes.

He actually suggested that Fang Youcheng move here directly with his family, but this year's situation here is not very good, and there is no guarantee that there will still be some harvest here next year. After all, planting crops depends on the sky for food, and God can't let it go. Rain, dryness, and drought are not in his hands.

What he can guarantee is that if the hometown is still the same next year and there is still some food to be produced here, let them come over to get some more food, so as to ensure that the adults and children in the hometown will not be starved out of good or bad.

When relatives came from his hometown, Fang Youshun asked Shen Yuxiu to go to Shen Jinggui's side to call for someone, and asked them to come here for dinner tonight, and also meet relatives from his hometown by the way.

You know, the transportation is inconvenient and thousands of miles away. It is really not easy to come to my hometown. I don’t know when I will meet again this year. Of course, I have to let the adults and children in the family come and get to know each other.

As soon as Shen Yulin heard that someone from his hometown was coming, without waiting for his parents to agree, he threw down the brush and ran to Fang's house.

There is a reason to take a break. After this day, he kept folding red paper, cutting red paper, and writing with a brush. Not to mention boring, he was almost exhausted.

So, when Shen Yuxiu came back and saw Shen Yulin serving his grandfather like a dog's leg, he almost didn't know him anymore.

What kind of wind is this second brother?When did you become so diligent?

But no matter what, it was because of this operation that Shen Yulin left a deep impression on Fang Youcheng. Until many years later, he still remembered this man who used to affectionately call him third grandpa and kept pouring water for him. child.

To go, three six nine.

In this way, Fang Youcheng had a good year here, and he was leaving on the third day of the new year.

Before leaving, Fang Youshun loaded their cart with two sacks of dried sweet potatoes and one sack of grain mixed with various coarse grains.

It's not that Fang Youshun is stingy and refuses to give more, but it's just that a cart can hold all these things, no matter how hard it is, the tire will be crushed, and the mountain is high and the road is far away, so the road is not easy to walk, even if the two of them change carts on the road , It is not easy to push these grains back.

In addition to the food, Fang Youshun also gave Fang Youcheng ten yuan, so that he could send a telegram when there was an emergency at home, or keep it for emergency use.

Fang Youcheng clutched the money that Fang Youshun forced into his hands, and didn't know how to express his gratitude. Finally, with tears in his eyes, he waved to Fang Youshun's family who were sent to his village entrance, and turned back to set foot on the road back to his hometown.

For Shen Yuxiu, the third grandpa who suddenly came and stayed for a few days and then left suddenly just added a little memory to her and let her know some outside things, nothing else.

She was still playing and running carelessly all over the streets with her little friends in the village, and she was happy every day without any worries.

But Shen Yuling couldn't do it. Not only did she not feel the joy of the New Year, but she was also worried about how to not be hungry every day.

Because she had eaten a lot of white flour and oil, Fourth Aunt Shen had a dark face all day long, except for a meal of cabbage dumplings that were not oily on the first day of the new year, and fourth Aunt Shen took her and her sisters After returning to my natal family, after eating a comprehensive steamed bun at my grandma's house, the family continued to live a life of drinking soup every day.

Now she no longer expects to eat much, she just wants to be full.

But because of the separation of the family, the adults and children of the uncle's family didn't look good when they saw her, and her other sisters could have the cheek to go and stutter, but she was the only one, and no one would take care of her.

However, now she has also learned to be smart. When she is full, she will lie down on the kang without going anywhere or moving, so that she can be hungry a little slower.

And God seems to know that if this continues, people may not be able to live. As soon as spring begins, it rains heavily, which makes people cry with joy.

After nearly three years of counting and eating every day, people have already settled down. As long as they can cultivate the land, as long as God is willing to give the crops a chance to grow, they seem to be tireless, almost working hard.

Of course, some lazy people like Zhao Hui's father and mother would starve him to death, and they would not be able to change the problem of not wanting to work.

Zhao Hui knew that during the Chinese New Year, every family had to visit relatives, so, during the days after the new year and the new year, he wisely brought some dried wild vegetables home, and stayed at home peacefully until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month before going back to the house. One step at the door of the house.

As time passed day by day, when the spring was warm and the flowers bloomed, he took the sweet potato seedlings raised by Youshun himself and planted them in the reed marsh again.

At the same time, he also went to some wastelands to find some cotton locust slivers suitable for weaving baskets, and began to try to weave things by himself to sell.

He thought, even if the baskets he made were not as straight as Fang Youshun's, as long as they were strong and sold at a lower price, someone would buy them, right?
And the fact is as he expected, although the baskets he weaves don't look very good-looking, but because they are durable, some people who are greedy for cheap are still willing to buy them when they go to sell them.

In this way, Zhao Hui gradually saved some money, and when the new semester started in autumn, he happily went to his father, Zhao Laowu, to ask for his household registration book to enroll in school.But in the end, before he got his household registration book, Zhao Hui was attacked by his parents on both sides.
