Chapter 8 No Food
"Sister, what is this?" She asked Ning Caicai.

Ning Caicai leaned over to take a look, then shook her head: "I dug it by chance, I don't know it."

Ning Xianxian simply put it in his mouth and took a bite.

Some bitterness.

"Xian'er, why do you eat indiscriminately even if you don't know him? What if you eat your stomach?" Liu Chunhua was a little anxious, and blamed Ning Caidao, "How did you become a sister? Give everything to my sister."

Ning Caicai said aggrievedly, "I ate it too, I didn't feel anything."

"Mom, I'm hungry. This can be eaten. Ning Xianxian looked up at Liu Chunhua and helped her sister out.

Liu Chunhua looked at her little daughter's watery eyes, and was speechless for a while.

"It's all my mother's incompetence, she starved me, Cai'er and Xian'er..." She felt extremely sad.

"Mother, it's okay, let's find a way to eat ourselves in the future." Ning Xianxian distributed the winter bamboo shoots to Liu Chunhua and Ning Caicai respectively, looked at the remaining winter bamboo shoots and an unknown root in his hand, and thought for a while , and said to them, "Mother, Sister, I want to urinate."

Liu Chunhua hurriedly said: "Go. Mother is waiting for you here."

"Then I'll go behind the tree over there, mother, wait for me."

Ning Xianxian took the things and ran behind a big tree not far away, while Liu Chunhua and the others were not paying attention, he ran to the injured boy before.

The boy still sat leaning against the big tree, with his eyes closed, a thick layer of snow fell on his body, quietly like a statue.

crunch.

Ning Xianxian's footsteps startled him.

He opened his eyes alertly.

"You...why are you back again." He said hoarsely.

Ning Xianxian squatted in front of him and put the winter bamboo shoots in his hands, "I only have this."

Then she started to use both hands, desperately digging up the red orchid.

"You came back for this?"

"Yes." Ning Xianxian replied casually.

The boy grabbed the winter bamboo shoots and took a few bites, then looked at the roots in the girl's hand.

"Winter bamboo shoots can be eaten raw." Ning Xianxian gestured.

The teenager stared at the root in her hand.

Ning Xianxian understood, shook his head and said, "I don't know what it is. I took a bite and it was a bit bitter."

"That's the Wind Grass."

"You know it? Can you eat it?"

"Yes. This is something that can be used as medicine. It is also called Tianma." The young man said softly.

"So it's medicine. What's the effect? ​​Can you use it?"

"It can relieve pain."

"Oh..." Ning Xianxian looked at the blood stains on his body, but couldn't see where he was injured, so he simply handed Gastrodia Ma to him, "Then I'll give you this too."

The young man looked at her empty hands, slightly startled.

At this time, there was a shout from a distance.

The young man listened carefully, "My people have come to look for me."

"Your family, that's great." Ning Xianxian also dug up the orchid completely, and stood up happily, "I should go too, take care."

"Wait." The boy moved with difficulty, took out a round bead from his arms and handed it to her, "This is for you."

Is this a repayment?

"Xian'er, are you alright?" Liu Chunhua's voice came from afar.

"Here we come!" Ning Xianxian took the beads, turned around and ran away.

"You..." The boy looked at her chubby back and wanted to ask her name.

However, the little girl ran away without looking back.

She ran a few steps, and met a dozen strong men in armor head-on.

The leader stopped her: "Little girl, have you..."

"There!" Ning Xianxian pointed to where the young man was, and then ran away on the snow.

The men were taken aback, and hurriedly ran in the direction she pointed, and they saw the young man sitting quietly leaning against a tree.

They were ecstatic.

At this time Ning Xianxian had returned to Liu Chunhua's mother and daughter, urging them to go down the mountain quickly.

Firstly, the mountain looks uneven, and secondly, the snow is getting bigger and bigger.If Fengshan doesn't go down, it's over.Staying here will only get more and more dangerous.

Seeing that she was holding a wilted leaf in her hand, Liu Chunhua asked, "Xian'er, what are you holding in your hand?"

"Oh, I found it over there just now, and I think it looks pretty, and I plan to take it home and keep it."

"Growing grass?"

Liu Chunhua shook her head, she just thought it was her child who was fond of playing, and didn't take it seriously, and warned, "This mountain road is very slippery, put the grass in my back basket, and grab my clothes, don't let go."

"Okay." Ning Xianxian also knew that the snowy mountain was not a joke.Put the orchid in Liu Chunhua's back basket, then pulled her by the corner of her clothes, and stepped on her footprints, the mother and daughter went down the mountain step by step.

When we reached the foot of the mountain, it was already noon.

After only drinking half a bowl of steamed buns in the morning, Ning Xianxian was already cold and hungry after climbing and descending the mountain, with icy snowflakes hitting her face.

Back in their yard, Liu Chunhua and Ning Caicai were busy putting the collected firewood into the stove.

Ning Xianxian went back to her room with the orchid in her arms.

When Ning Zhou heard the sound, he went to the stove and took a look, his face was a little bit bad: "The firewood is so damp, how can I use it for fire?"

Liu Chunhua explained nonuo: "The snow is too heavy..."

"What else can you do? You can't even have children, and you can't do anything. It's really..." Ning Zhou began to chant scriptures again.

In the final analysis, it was because she failed to give birth to a son.

Liu Chunhua lowered her head, not daring to argue a word.

"Okay, go out, what are you doing stuck in the kitchen?" Mrs. Ning Zhou pushed them away.

"Mother, the two children haven't had lunch yet..."

"There's no food at home." Mrs. Ning Zhou said impatiently, "Cai Cai broke a bowl this morning, so I'll pay for it with today's meal!"

Ning Caicai cried helplessly: "Grandma, I don't want to eat, let mother and sister eat..."

"There's no food in the pot! You'll starve to death if you don't eat one or two meals?" Mrs. Ning Zhou pushed them outward.

The rest of the rooms were all huddled in their own warm rooms, and no one came out to help and say a word.

Ning Xianxian was hugging the orchid and placing it in an old pot, when she looked up she saw Liu Chunhua and Ning Caicai walking in with red eyes.

She hurriedly stood up: "Mother, sister, what's the matter with you?"

"We're fine." Liu Chunhua wiped her eyes, went to the bed and brought the sewing basket, "Xian'er, you go to the kang. Take off your shoes, and mother will sew them for you."

Ning Xianxian is no longer the ignorant child he used to be, and he can guess a little bit from this scene.

"My mother does all the rough work at home, and all the wages my father earns outside are handed over to her. Why doesn't she give us food?"

Ning Xianxian said, "I'm going to get something to eat!"

"Xian'er, don't do this."

Liu Chunhua hurriedly hugged her, "You can't do this, be good."

"She's trying to starve us to death!"

"No, your grandma is not that kind of person." Liu Chunhua sighed, "In fact, your grandma treated us very well, and she didn't short us for food and clothing. It's all my mother's failure to give birth to a younger brother for you. Come on, it makes your grandma gradually chill..."

"She is chilling? Mother, you should be chilling!"

"Alas." Liu Chunhua sighed sadly, wrinkles appeared at the corners of her eyes.

Ning Xianxian was shocked.
