The history of struggle of peasant girls

Chapter 71
Han Qianluo thought to herself, if the little boy had no one at home, she would like to pick him up and raise him.

The little boy paused, and after a while, he whispered: "There is an uncle," then shook his head in horror and said: "I don't want to go to him, he will sell me."

Han Qianluo was in a bit of trouble, she would never be able to pick up this child by herself, not to mention that he still had relatives, even if he had no relatives, it was impossible for such a grown-up person to just take it back, Han Qianluo felt, Definitely need an adoption procedure or something.

Just looking at the yearning eyes of the little boy in front of him, Han Qianluo felt a little unbearable when he thought of his previous life. Looking at the boy's reaction, he knew that his uncle would definitely not be a good person. Otherwise, the children would not be so frightened.

Thinking of this, Han Qianluo felt troubled.At this time, Zhao Qin, who stood aside and didn't speak before, seemed to have seen what was going on in her heart, and suddenly said, "Qianluo, if your family wants to adopt, I can go back and ask my father to help me take a look at the child's condition." Where is the household registration, and do you have any other relatives?"

"Then thank you very much." Han Qianluo said with a smile.

"Thank you, we are all friends." Zhao Qin said happily, then turned to the child and asked, "What's your name and where do you live?"

The child looked at Zhao Qin timidly, and still whispered: "My name is Pan Song, and I live in Gaoba." Han Qianluo still knew the place in Gaoba, it was next to Qianyangli, and Sanyangli is relative.

"You are from Gaoba, why did you come here?" Han Qianluo asked a little strangely.

"I, I..." The child opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything.

Han Qianluo was a little puzzled. This hesitation was not very normal, so he asked again: "Did you encounter any difficulties?"

The little boy opened his mouth, and finally said: "I came to see my grandmother, but they all scolded me and beat me."

"What's your grandmother's name?" Han Qianluo asked.

"I only know that my grandfather's name is Qian Guang." The little boy said in a low voice, as if he was afraid of scaring anyone by speaking loudly.

Han Qianluo turned her head and glanced at Zhao Qin. She was still not very familiar with the people in the same village. She didn't know who this person was called Qian Guang.Zhao Qin also frowned and thought for a while, and then said: "I remember that this person died many years ago." Then he turned his head and looked at Han Qianluo, "It's from Grandma Sun's house by the reservoir. .”

When Zhao Qin said this, Han Qianluo understood that she still knew the Sun family by the reservoir. He was a widowed old man, but he died not long ago, and he felt very sympathetic to this little boy in an instant: "Your grandmother Probably gone."

Han Qianluo spoke more reservedly, but the little boy didn't understand much, and asked: "Where did grandma go?" Han Qianluo opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say, and finally Zhao Qin who was beside him said: " Did your grandmother live by the reservoir?"

"Yes." The little boy nodded.

"It's dead." Zhao Qin said without any scruples.

Han Qianluo originally thought that the little boy would cry when he heard the news, or at least be sad if he didn't cry, but to her surprise, the little boy didn't have much reaction after hearing the news. He just stood there in a daze, blinked his eyes after a while, and had no other reaction.

Han Qianluo patted the little boy's shoulder and asked worriedly, "What's wrong with you, are you okay?"

"I'm fine, thank you, miss." The little boy came back to his senses, said with a smile, then waved to Han Qianluo and the two of them, "Miss sister, goodbye." Then he left.

Seeing the figure of the little boy gradually disappear at the end of the road, Han Qianluo lost the idea of ​​continuing to stroll, and turned around and said, "Let's go back."

"Okay, let's go back."

As soon as Han Qianluo walked into the house, he saw Sanwei standing in the place where the rabbits were being fed, so he walked over curiously.As soon as she walked over, Han Sanwei found her, pointed at the rabbit excitedly and said to Han Qianluo: "Sister San, look at my rabbit has grown so big." After a pause, he said proudly, "This is what I grew up with."

"Sanwei is really amazing." Han Qianluo smiled and stroked his fourth brother's hair.

Han Qianluo didn't care about these rabbits all this time, he didn't know that they had grown to such a big size now, and they probably weighed three to four catties. Looking at these white and fat rabbits in front of him, the first thing that came to mind was Not cute, but a big plate of tasty and tasty rabbit.

"Sanwei, how about we eat rabbit meat tonight?" Han Qianluo looked at the rabbits grazing quietly and said, without turning his head to look at Sanwei.

Han Sanwei nodded quickly and said, "Okay, then let's get the elder brother back and kill the rabbit."

Han Qianluo couldn't help feeling a little amused by the child's anxiety, and quickly said, "Why are you so anxious, it's still early, and it won't be too late to kill the rabbit when the elder brother comes back later."

Not long after, Han Qianluo saw his elder brother coming back from the outside, so he hurriedly said to him, "Brother, we are eating rabbits tonight, you catch one and kill it."

I just earned more than [-] yuan, and even after paying back the ten yuan, there are still more than seventy yuan left. In Han Qianluo's view, the reason for working hard to make money is to enjoy life, so she is very willing now. Be kind to yourself and your family.

"Isn't there food tonight? Why kill the rabbit to eat? If you sell it for money, you can sell it for a lot of money." Han Qingquan said, not very willing to kill the rabbit to eat.

This is something that Han Qianluo did not expect, but it is not very surprising, this is how the poor live.But Han Qianluo didn't just give up like this, and persuaded: "Brother, we have earned so much money now, so we should eat better and dress better, otherwise what are we doing so hard to make money."

Han Qingquan still looked reluctant, and tried to change Han Qianluo's mind: "The money can just be used to buy some land, and our family doesn't have much land anyway."

"Brother, we can continue to earn money for buying land in the future, and I'm afraid it's not easy to buy land at this time. Besides, eating better will keep your health healthy and earn more money." Han Qianluo Trying hard to convince my elder brother.

However, it is obviously not that easy to change a person's mind. Even if Han Qianluo said so, Han Qingquan was still not very willing.Seeing this, Han Qianluo hurriedly said, "Brother, Sanwei is still growing his body now, and eating better can make him grow taller and stronger. Look at that Liu Goudan, isn't it because he didn't eat well, so Will it grow thin and small?"

Hearing this, Han Qingquan was finally convinced: "Then I'll kill a rabbit." After speaking, he went into the house to catch the rabbit and kill it.

Regarding the matter of killing rabbits, Han Qianluo couldn't help much, so he stopped watching and went out to dig some vegetables in the vegetable field.After walking a few steps, I came to the vegetable field. At this time, the vegetables in the vegetable field were already emerald green. Vegetables such as melons and fruits could not be eaten, but the leafy vegetables could be dug back and eaten.

Han Qianluo dug a few vegetables and went back, only to find that his eldest brother had already killed the rabbit and was cleaning the rabbit in the kitchen.Seeing her coming back, Han Qingquan quickly asked, "Xiao Luo, will you do it next or me?"

"Brother, you can kill it, I'll cook." Han Qianluo said, squatting in the yard and finishing the water spinach he dug up, and put it in a wooden basin.

After pinching the water spinach, the rabbit meat was almost finished, and after adding some seasoning, Han Qianluo started to fry the rabbit meat.As soon as Han Qianluo lit the fire, he found Sanwei standing aside and watching. When the rabbit meat started to be fried, Sanwei almost fell into the pot with his eyes, but he remained very quiet and didn't say much.

As the cooking time progressed, the aroma of fried rabbit meat gradually wafted out, not to mention Han Sanwei, even Han Qianluo felt a little unbearable. Thinking of the taste of meat last time, Han Qianluo felt that it seemed like It's like something from a previous life.

The three brothers and sisters of the Han family ate very satisfactorily for this dinner. All the food on the table was eaten clean, and there was nothing left.

The next morning, Han Qianluo had just returned from the market in the capital, and had just walked to the boundary of Qianyangli, when he saw a middle-aged aunt in the same place. Since he met him, he naturally wanted to say hello, so he left In the past, he shouted loudly: "Aunt Zhou, where are you going?"

"I went to pluck some vegetables from the field, did Qianluo come back from the market?" Zhou also said with a smile.

Just as the two passed by, Zhou suddenly called out to Han Qianluo: "By the way, I remembered one more thing."

"What's the matter?" Han Qianluo stopped and asked with some doubts. She and Zhou were not familiar with each other, but they knew each other that there was such a person.

Zhou Shi seemed to be a little hesitant, and didn't speak for a while, and looked a little embarrassed, which made Han Qianluo even more puzzled, what could make Zhou Shi so hesitant.

Fortunately, Mrs. Zhou didn't hesitate for too long, and quickly said, "Qianluo, I heard that you are very familiar with the shopkeepers of those restaurants in the capital?" Zhou's words stopped here, looking at Han Qian Can't blink.

Han Qianluo was stunned for a moment, he didn't understand the origin of Zhou's question, but he still replied: "Actually, I just know the shopkeeper of a restaurant, but I don't know him very well."

Unexpectedly, after listening to this sentence, Mrs. Zhou showed a relieved expression, and said with a smile: "It's easy to get acquainted, and it's easy to handle when you know each other." After finishing speaking, he scratched his head again, and spoke a little embarrassedly: " Qianluo, my aunt wants to ask you for a favor, I wonder if you can agree?"
