This evening after work, Lin Lan went back to clean up and look at the ducklings to help Han Qingsong grow some vegetables that can still be planted in this season.

"Tell the old lady if you can make a small bowl of noodles for Xiao Wang? His stomach is weak, so he has diarrhea. It's hard to digest coarse grains. " Xiao Wang followed his elder brother and sister to eat wild fruits and grass roots the day before yesterday. As a result, he had diarrhea, but he had no appetite.

Lin Lan felt sorry for him, so he wanted to get some fine grain to eat, but the old lady was holding all the food at home.

Han Qingsong is also very concerned about Xiaowang, "I talk to my mother."

He didn't say it, but he saw it. Lin Lan's shabby clothes were so thin that he could cut off his waist. Take a look at yourself, a few children, one by one pale and skinny. Dawang doesn't see anyone for three days, just like a wild boy. Although Erwang's ears of wheat were slightly clean, the clothes were also invisible. Not to mention Sanwang, who is soaking in the river all day, has only a pair of broken trousers. Xiao Wang's eyes are not good, and his body is even worse. He is thin and small. He seems to have big head and big eyes.

He sent Erwang to tell him to make some pasta for Xiaowang. He didn't like noodles, but he could make some lumps.

When waiting for dinner, Lin Lan found that, not to mention Xiaowang's noodle pimples, even before the corn flour pancakes were gone, they were all replaced by black shaggy Wowotou.

She tried it with a nest in her hand, and the pictures of suffering in her deep memory came out, such as what melon and vegetable substitutes, what starch, what... She suffered from severe abdominal distension and constipation, and her whole body was swollen

This is clearly the potherb Wowotou, maybe even mixed with sweet potato leaves and stalks for pigs, right? This is to eat bran food thoroughly!

It's only two days since the separation. The food has plummeted. Do you want them to come back or something?

What's more, the farmhouse rice has no technical content. For breakfast, you can boil the cakes, Wowotou and sweet potato before breakfast. If you are in the mood, you can cook some porridge. For lunch, you can boil the cakes and other staple food in salt water and add a drop of oil slick. For dinner, you can add sticky porridge.

Even if Lin Lan didn't like cooking in her previous life, she knew that these meals had no technical content at all.

But why is cooking so bad?

It's not just bad, these days - since the separation, she found that the food at home is really getting worse and worse.

Now I catch up with those people who can't open the pot as Sanwang said, "sweet potato rice, sweet potato soup, three hungry meals a day.".

Look at the hard nest that can kill a dog!

In the three-year difficult period, it is called "starch", which is a kind of substitute meal. People will be constipated if they eat it. In serious cases, they will become swollen all over the body and even have a bloated stomach.

It's a night before liberation for the Han family.

Lin Lan's heart is angry, adults can't eat this, children's intestines and stomach will be so tender dysplasia, not to mention Xiaowang is still sick!

She glanced at the old lady, who said she had a bad appetite.

Several big men didn't say anything. Han's sister-in-law ate it silently, but Han's second sister-in-law only drank sticky porridge instead of Wowotou.

As for the children mostly drink sticky porridge, only Dawang is eating the hard to swallow nest. The child is stubborn and silent, but he never complains and is not picky. Think about his previous life later mixed black, was shot... Lin Lan heart a Deng.

Erwang and maisui took two mouthfuls, choked their necks and swallowed them, but they didn't want to eat any more.

As soon as the ear of wheat was put down, Mrs. Han looked at it and immediately scolded, "how can you spoil the grain? It's not delicious? This is not hungry you, think about three years of difficult time, not to mention such a vegetable nest, is dry wild vegetables are good things. How many people eat the flour of straw, bean straw and crop roots? Do you think it's not good at the moment

Sanwang said, "what are you eating? The poorest and laziest families in our village don't eat this either."

Is this pig food?

He tucked his wowowotou into his pocket and planned to take it back to feed the duckling.

Old lady Han said angrily, "if you are not in charge of the family, you don't know how expensive it is. What else do you know besides eating? I don't know if it's going to work at home? "

Such a scold, no one spoke.

Lin Lan looks, and when she hears Han Qingsong's steps into the yard, she asks old lady Han, "mother, Xiao Wang has diarrhea these two days. Can you make some noodle soup for him?"

Mrs. Han slapped her chopsticks on the table. "How come there are so many problems? Everyone lives whatever they want. They are all poor middle peasants. What kind of landlords and rich people do they eat?"

Lin Lan was aggrieved and said: "I didn't take it every day, so I got sick and ate. It's too much for Xiaowang to digest. "

Han Qingsong came in and washed his hands to eat. As soon as he heard this, he knew what was going on.

He asked Erwang, "did you tell him?"

Er Wang turned his lips and said wrongly, "Dad, of course, I've said it several times."

Old lady Han didn't have a good way: "is it useful to say it? There's no noodles at home, and it's no use for God. I'll talk about it later. "

It's impossible to say that wheat is divided in summer without fine flour.

Han Qingsong: "if you don't have noodles, you can make eggs. I'll make them."

"What for?" Old lady Han became angry. "There are only a few chickens in tonggong, and most of them don't lay eggs. You don't make money now, you don't have any cash at home, you still have to rely on a few chicken butts to be a bank? What can I exchange for kerosene and salt when you eat it? "

Erwang curled his mouth and muttered in a low voice: "save it for my aunt and uncle."

Han Qingsong glanced at the table. Xiaowang is wilting. A little girl in maisui is holding a black and hard nest. Lin Lan is wearing patched clothes, which is many times worse than the second sister-in-law opposite her.

There was an indescribable feeling in his heart, sour, a little stinging, and his chest was in a panic.

"Three or four cents for an egg." Han Qingsong insisted.

"Why, you want to settle accounts with your mother. You've made money, so you're not at home all day, you don't serve your parents, you don't work to support your family, you can't take some money to subsidize? I haven't got any money back in this quarter, and I still have to eat my eggs. You are so bad... "

"All right, just one egg!" Old Han tou didn't say a word all the time. Now he can't stand it any more. "Make a baby. I'm sick. You look so thin. "

Han Qingsong goes into the house. Lin Lan catches up with him.

Han's sister-in-law is also busy in the past, "I'll come, I'll come!"

Han Qingsong is not at home. He doesn't know the market at home, but Lin Lan knows.

She moved quickly and quickly to find the small jar for eggs. It was almost full. There was also a jar for noodles and a jar for noodles.

Every now and then, the old lady rolls pancakes and takes them to the county to give them to her youngest son and daughter, who often grind noodles at home.

From old to young, the whole family ate coarse grain all day, just to save fine grain for them.

Han's sister-in-law is still slow. She smiles awkwardly and takes an egg.

Lin Lan took another one and did it again. How could she not satiate Xiao Wang.

Han Qingsong said: "sister-in-law, you eat, I come."

Make eggs quickly, boil a bowl of water at the bottom of the pot, knock the eggs in, boil them again, roll them for several rolls, and then they are cooked. Even scoop out the soup and pinch a few pieces of salt.

In order not to make people angry, Lin Lan doesn't go out, but calls Xiao Wang into the room to eat.

Xiaowang is very sensible, whispering: "mother, you eat one, I eat one."

Lin Lan drinks the soup symbolically, and feeds Xiaowang the rest of the land.

Outside the old lady straight acid, "he is know to give her mother to eat, but don't know to eat."

Hey, Wan Xiaowang, Lin Lan just came to eat by himself.

She soaked the wowowotou in the sticky porridge and couldn't swallow Erwang and maisui. But the old lady didn't dare to leave it, so she winked at them and motioned to her father to eat it.

Her playful appearance fell in Han Qingsong's eyes, and he saw it for a moment.

Erwang took the wheat ear and quietly gave it to Han Qingsong.

Han Qingsong takes another look at Lin Lan and silently takes it to eat.

After dinner, the men went out to brag and brag, and the women took their children to do housework at home. Lin Lan takes a few children home. On the way home, she tells Erwang and maisui to let them have a chance to see how aunt cooks.

Er Wang suddenly understood, "Niang, you said that my aunt deliberately made something bad for us to eat?"

Lin Lan motioned to him in a low voice, "it's not your mother. It must be you. You are angry that we are separated and don't want to give us food."

"Really? Why is she so bad! " Sanwang listened and squeezed over from one side. "I'll go and have a look."

He turned and ran back, but was pulled back by Dawang, "it's all closed, you run fart."

When they came out, the second lady closed the door.

Dawang walks away with Sanwang.

At home, Lin Lan sent the children to wash their faces and feet, and then took Artemisia argyi to the door, ready to sleep.

She rushed the children back to the house to find a chance to talk to Han Qingsong alone.

"Have you seen the food these two days?"

Han Qingsong flushed his feet with water, "what's the matter?"

"What's the matter? You can't see that since you came back and separated, the food has been worse and worse day by day, and today even the melon and vegetable substitutes have been taken out. "

Han Qingsong thought, "wowowotou is a little rough."

"Just a little rough?" Lin Lan looked at him and said, "even in those years, the old lady and they haven't eaten this kind of Wowotou!"

Listen to her tone with complaint, Han Qingsong understand her meaning, "do you think mother deliberately do such a meal?"

Lin Lan sneered: "how, you can't think of it."

Han Qingsong frowned. He couldn't accept the old lady's behavior. He also felt that the old man had suffered from three years of famine, and basically had such a problem. He didn't want to give up food and clothing. "We shouldn't treat our children badly on purpose..."

After all, Xiao Wang had eggs in the evening.

"Cut!" Lin Lan rolled her eyes. Except for her silly son with 800 meter filter, everyone can see that old lady Han is not a good stubble.

"You are not at home all the year round, and I don't know the situation. I won't tell you more. You can have a good look." Not at home all day, I thought my mother was more reasonable. Haven't you seen it this time?

The old lady didn't care a word about Han Qingsong. She wanted money and agreed to separate her family when she knew she wanted to change her job.

When the family is separated, she doesn't give anything. What Han Qingsong gets, she wants to go first.

In the eyes of discerning people, you can see that the old lady did it on purpose.

In the past, the original owner could do it, but she was weak. The old lady was happy to pretend to understand her mother-in-law, but in fact, she was bad.

She doesn't mean to instigate the relationship between Han Qingsong and the old lady. After all, they are mother and son. She just wants Han Qingsong to see clearly the unfair treatment she and her children receive in this family.

Also, let him see clearly that the old lady is not as good to them as he thought.

Anyway, give Han Qingsong a shot first. Don't think it's her.

The next day, she whispered to Erwang, maisui and Xiaowang, asking them to find a way to see her cooking.

This matter can't let Sanwang know, he is a straightforward, can't hide things, and he listen to Dawang, Dawang has a big prejudice against Lin Lan, can't let him know.

As a result, Erwang and maisui went there several times, but they didn't see Han's sister-in-law cooking two kinds of food. They were all vegetables and melons instead of Wowotou. When they asked other children, they didn't ask anything. And as long as it's not time for dinner, the old lady scolds them when she sees them and asks them to mow grass to earn work points.

The children all think that maybe Lin Lan is very thoughtful. After all, everyone eats the same.

Lin Lan does not think so. According to her understanding of the old lady, there must be something fishy.

The two big jars in the east room are filled with grain, and there are also half a small ear room with grain in it. My sister-in-law is not at home, and the old lady is locked, and no one is allowed to enter.

The elder sister-in-law can avoid steaming other cakes and wowowotou in the third room. Who dares to speak when the child is threatened by the old lady?

I guess I have to eat the same as them.

She secretly observed two meals to let her find the flaw, Lin Lan a little thought to have an idea.

She's going to catch someone and see what they have to say.

The next day she got up early and crept down the Kang before dawn to go out to Lao Han's house.

The gate is closed.

She glided to the back of the house first, and sure enough, she heard the sound of sister Han burning a fire and pulling the bellows, as well as muttering.

Then she heard Han Er Sao cry in her voice: "sorghum and Xiaofu are going to get off the Kang. Get up and eat Erhe Mian pancakes. When your three wives come, they can only eat sweet potato leaf wowowotou."

Sure enough, playing this trick behind their back!

Lin Lan thought about it and hurried back to ask Erwang and maisui to go to Lao Han's home.

Han Qingsong got up to carry water and plant vegetables. He saw them ask, "what are you doing in a hurry?"

Lin Lan a pick eyebrow, "find evidence for you!" If you don't catch one, you don't know how powerful it is!

When they arrived at the old Han's house, they didn't knock. Lin Lan turned over the low courtyard wall in the south. When she was riding on the wall, she saw Han Er Sao leading several children to grab cakes. She said: "who's going to the door to stare at them? Look at them and yell. Hurry up. Eat, eat

Lin Lan called out impolitely, "you steal!"

She cried out in such a cold voice that the women and children in the yard who had been guilty of stealing food shivered, and Xiaofu dropped the cake on the ground.

Han Er Sao almost threw away the rice basket. She turned her head and looked at Lin Lan, eyes to eyes. She couldn't believe it when she saw a ghost. "Old, old three, you, how did you come?"

Lin Lan found that in this home, you can't be shrewd, it's high cold, it's high cold, it's time to start!

She jumped down and ran forward, snatching the rice basket from Han Er Sao's hand, "I said you are really good."

Erwang and maisui also crawled in, "hum, shameless!"

Han Ersao's first reaction was to get the rice basket back. She hasn't eaten it yet.

Han's sister-in-law blushed with embarrassment. She didn't know what to say for a moment, and her lips were like, "the old three, come, come... Today, I'm going to improve the food, and I'm going to let the children call you."

The old lady was able to manage this loss of personnel. She didn't agree at the beginning. If the old three knew about it, it would be very funny.

The key is not all fresh sweet potato leaves. Many of them were dried last year. Who knows the taste? Mrs. Han refused to eat them in three years of disaster.

As a result, the old lady said that if anyone dares to talk, they will not be able to eat, including children.

So she can only say nothing.

I just didn't expect to be seen through by the third family in just two days.

What a shame.

Old lady Han called on the Kang, "why, do you think I spent all the allowance? Didn't they all subsidize family meals to buy rations before? This time, I didn't get any money. Of course, I didn't get any food! "

There is one in the old Han family. They all have to go to work to earn work points. But don't forget, they also support their uncle and sister-in-law to eat. They don't earn work points if they don't work. Their rations are all made up by others or by money.

But the old lady likes to have 11 children.

Lin Lan also does not quarrel with them, "that so, divide our ration out, later we cook by ourselves."

There's no need to mention the issue of grain distribution. Old Mrs. Han didn't agree even if she was killed. But this time, she was wrong, and she didn't want her third son to have an opinion. "If you want to share the grain, you have to wait for the autumn grain to come down. Now it's time to break up. What kind of grain do you want to share

Han's sister-in-law quietly takes out the cake for everyone to eat. She is embarrassed to look at Lin Lan with her head down. She is afraid that Lin Lan will go crazy and look for life and death. If Han Qingsong sees this, she must think that her daughter-in-law's death is forced by her family.

At this time, old Han tou and other men also got up. They were embarrassed one by one, but pretended not to know.

Old Han tou: "go hoe the private plot." Then he flashed with a hoe and didn't care to eat.

Elder brother Han is close behind. He can't afford to lose that man.

Lin Lan looks outside, and Erwang signs to her. She knows that Han Qingsong is leading Xiaowang to come.

She took the rice basket and gave it to Erwang and maisui to share the cake. She said in a loud voice, "I'll tell you the ugly story, either we'll share the ration, or we'll make it ourselves. If we're not hungry enough, we can't say anything. But if we don't divide the ration, we can make pig food for our third room. Next time, let me see... "

After a pause, she glanced at Han's sister-in-law and second sister-in-law. Listening to Han Qingsong's steps, she said in a loud voice, "I'll smash the pot and chop the table. Don't eat anyone!"

Han's sister-in-law and second sister-in-law were so scared that they shivered. The children also looked at the third lady in horror.

Your aunt or your aunt!

The shrew is still that shrew, more fierce!

Look at that look. It's more powerful than a tigress!

With these words, Han Qingsong has come over.

Erwang immediately yelled: "Dad, look! They make two noodles cake to steal, wait for us to come to eat sweet potato leaf nest for us
