Chapter 2 Borrowed Sweet Potatoes

Seeing grandma blaming herself, Walnut walked over and said, "Grandma, don't be sad, I believe that father and mother will come back when they find brother."

While talking, breakfast was ready, Walnut walked to the stove, opened the pot and looked directly at the cooked crab and shellfish soup, picked up the spoon and picked up the bowl, first filled a bowl for grandma, and put The only shellfish was fished into grandma's bowl.Gave it to grandma.

Grandma looked at the crab soup brought by Walnut and said, "Grandma is not hungry, you can eat it yourself!"

After hearing this, Walnut smiled and said, "Grandma, drink some! There is still some in the pot. After drinking for a while, I will go to the beach to dig some."

Grandma took the soup from Walnut, her eyes filled with tears.Seeing that there were still a few pieces of shellfish in the bowl, the bowl in his hand trembled, and he couldn't drink it no matter what.

Seeing this, Walnut said, "Grandma, drink it quickly! Don't worry about me, there is still in the pot."

Grandma looked at the walnuts and drank the bowl of shellfish soup with tears in her eyes.

The breakfast ended in such a hasty manner. Grandma looked at Walnut and said, "Stay at home, don't wander around. Grandma goes out to see if she can borrow some food."

Watching grandma walk out of the house with a small cloth bag, Walnut is not idle.Wandering around the yard, I thought, this garden is quite big, it is spring now, if some seeds can be planted in the garden, wouldn’t the life of myself and grandma be better in autumn?

Thinking of this, Walnut sat in the yard and began to worry. This poor family didn't even have food, so how could there be seeds to plant in the garden.

At this moment, the door of her house was pushed open, and a little boy who was about six or seven years old in tattered clothes came in, holding a bowl of rice in his hand.

Walnut smiled when he saw this, looked at the boy and asked, "Zhengshan, why are you here?" "I begged for a lot of food today, so I brought you and grandma a bowl."

Walnut looked at the bowl of rice in the boy's hand, felt a little embarrassed, and scratched his head and hair.He took the bowl of rice in his hand, walked into the house, poured it out and put it in his own bowl.

He returned the bowl to the little beggar and said, "Zhengshan, thank you, grandma and I have lunch this time."

The little beggar Zhengshan finished listening, and said with a smile: "You're welcome, I can do this with little effort. Why didn't you go to the beach to dig crabs?"

Hearing the little beggar's question, Walnut said with some frustration: "Grandma went to borrow food and won't let me go out."

After listening, the little beggar looked at her and said, "Then I'm leaving, I have to go to the beach to dig some crabs, catch some small fish and shrimp, so I can cook for my dad and younger brother in the evening."

With that said, he turned and walked out of the yard.

Watching him leave, Walnut sat in the yard and continued to feel sad. Looking at the big yard, she thought to herself, I really have no memory of my previous life, and I can't do anything. I'm really stupid.

Thinking that I have had the memory of my previous life since I was born. In my previous life, I was a beautiful woman, married a handsome man, rich and powerful, had a villa and a luxury car, slept until I woke up naturally, and drove a luxury car to do things. Beauty shopping, travel around when you are in a bad mood, and leave as soon as you say.Not to mention how moist that day was.But he was unlucky in a plane crash.When he opened his eyes again, he was here, still a newborn baby.

When I grew up a little bit, my parents left, and I lived a hard and bitter life with my grandma. I opened my eyes every day to worry about eating, and I didn’t eat the next meal.I am six years old, and I have never had enough to eat, and I feel sad when I think about it.

Looking at this huge garden again, I feel even more sad. I want to support myself but I don't even have any seeds.

Just when he was worried about where the walnut was, grandma opened the door and walked in. The empty bag she had just taken away was carried back this time, and walnut knew that grandma had borrowed food.So he asked, "Grandma, what are you carrying?"

Grandma smiled and said, "This is the sweet potato I borrowed from your aunt's house. My mother and I can save some food. We can eat it for a few days."

Hearing that it was sweet potatoes, Walnut's eyes lit up and ran over.After taking the bag in grandma's hand, he opened it, looked at grandma and said, "It's spring now, let's save these sweet potatoes for planting! Then we will have something to eat in autumn."

After hearing this, grandma looked at the sweet potatoes in the bag and sighed, "Oh! If you don't eat them, what will we mother eat? This spring is the hardest."

Walnut knew that what grandma said was the truth, looked at the half bag of sweet potatoes and said without thinking: "Grandma, let's not eat these sweet potatoes and save them for planting. As for the food, I will figure out a way." The bag of sweet potatoes came into the house.Not to mention how happy I was, I said in my heart, no matter what I think, this sweet potato must not be eaten, and I must keep it as a seed. I am six years old anyway. Not a problem.

When grandma heard what Walnut said, she sighed and said in her heart: "After all, I am still a child, and my thoughts are naive.

Walnut put the sweet potatoes in the stove, looked at grandma and said, "Grandma, there are seeds this time, let's be more difficult now, wait a few days and plant them in the yard, and it will be fine in autumn."

Looking at the hopeful eyes of the walnuts, grandma nodded and said, "Okay, let's not eat them, and insist on keeping them as seeds."

After hearing this, Walnut looked at grandma with a sweet smile and said, "Grandma, if you are hungry, here is a bowl of rice. You can heat it up and eat it later! I just ate it. I'm going to the beach to dig some crabs and come back. Good evening make our dinner."

After listening to her, grandma looked at her and said, "Then be careful, don't go far."

After the words fell, Walnut had already walked out with a basket.

Looking at the bowl of rice on the stove, grandma knew that it was from Zhengshan again.Sighing, I started to tidy up odd jobs in the yard.

Walnut took the basket and went to the beach to dig crabs, only to find that his small shovel was gone. He had no choice but to let himself come here for nothing, so he had to sacrifice his hands to pick up the sand and dig the crabs.

Besides, Walnut had just left home, and grandma was tidying up the yard, when the fence gate was pushed open, and a woman came in with two children.

The woman looked at the walnut grandma who was cleaning the yard and shouted: "Mom, I'm back to see you, how about cleaning the yard?"

When Grandma Walnut heard the question, she raised her head to look at the woman, and asked, "Girl, why are you back?"

The woman called Ya'er is none other than Walnut's aunt, who is also Grandma's daughter.
