Peerless peasant girl

Chapter 2 How poor is the family
It was only after she walked out that she realized how poor the village she was in was. It was basically all earthen houses, and the area was very large. It seemed that the village was big and poor.

"Xiao Mo, why did you come out? Why don't you sleep for a while." Ti Xiaomian put down the corn in his hand and ran over and asked with concern.

"I'm already well, so I'm getting up, where are my brother, dad, and the others?" Didn't it mean that there were many people in the family?Why did I see my little brother and mother today?

"Father and grandpa went to rich man Zhang's house to do temporary work, and elder brother and second elder brother went up the mountain to cut firewood, and grandma was lying on the bed." Ti Xiaomian replied puzzled, it was like this every day at home, how could my sister be like this Asked, suddenly remembered that her sister had lost her memory, and explained it carefully to Ti Xiaomo. "Now it's spring planting time. Everyone in the village goes out to look for work, and my father and grandfather also go. The eldest brother and the second brother go to the mountain to look for wild vegetables every morning, and go back to the mountain to cut firewood in the morning and afternoon, because I was young. Help mother peel corn at home."

"Then does our family have any land?" Grandpa and father both go out to do part-time jobs during the spring plowing season. Could it be that there is no land at home?

"Yes, but in the past few years, grandma has been in poor health and sold some fields to buy medicine for grandma. There are five acres of paddy fields and three acres of dry fields at home. My mother and elder brother usually take care of their fields. When I grow up I will also go to help my mother." Thinking that I am too young to help, I wish I could grow up and help the family.

"Brother, what are you planning to do by peeling these corns?" Seeing his brother blaming himself, Ti Xiaomo quickly changed the subject.

"After I peel and dry the corn, I will send it to Mr. Zhang's house to sell, and his house will collect the corn." Thinking that he still made a contribution at home, Ti Xiaomian's face returned to a happy look.

As expected of a child, he is easy to be happy and satisfied.

"Then I'll peel the corn with my brother." Ti Xiaomo saw that there were still a lot of corn and started to help.

After all, peeling corn is very simple, and I can help.

"Xiao Mo, don't peel the corn, come here and eat some egg custard. Come and help after you recover." Seeing Xiao Mo peeling the corn, Hu was afraid that she would tire him out.

"Mom, I'm full, you can give it to brother." She was not so delicate.

A hint of envy flashed in Ti Xiaoman's eyes when he heard the egg custard raised his head, but he didn't speak. However, Ti Xiaomo happened to see this look.

Is even an egg a luxury for a poor family?How poor is this family?

"Brother won't eat, brother is already full, Xiao Mo, go and eat." The egg custard is specially made by the mother to replenish the body of the younger sister, and he is a strong boy, so he can't compete with the younger sister.

"Brother, you are really sensible." Ti Xiaomo couldn't help but praise.

This child is really sensible. In the era we live in, ten-year-old children are still in elementary school, and they still don’t understand anything. They only think about how to play all day long. It’s their misfortune to live in ancient times, and it’s a poor mountain village.

"Come on, brother, eat this. After we're done, let's peel the corn together." Ti Xiaomo insisted on serving the egg custard to Ti Xiaomo.Hu saw it but didn't say anything.

"Okay!" Ti Xiaomian was a child after all, so he was very obedient when coaxed.

Ti Xiaomo looked at the corn all over the ground and sighed, so much corn should be able to sell for a lot of money.

Thinking of the money, her motivation came. Living in such a dilapidated house is really uncomfortable, especially the bed, which makes her bones hurt even when she sleeps. She must think of a way to see if she can make more money to change it. life now.

"Mother Xiaosong, how much corn do you have at home? Aunt Li and I are going to deliver the corn, and Mr. Zhang is in a hurry to collect it." A shabby but neatly dressed woman came to her house and called Hu, The tone is full of kindness.

"My family doesn't have much peeled corn. No, Xiao Mo is just sick. I don't have time to take care of her corn. You can send it first, and then send it when my family is almost peeled." Hu hurried out of the kitchen with an apologetic expression on his face. They had agreed to deliver corn today, but something happened at home and they didn't complete the agreement on time, so they were a little embarrassed.

"That's fine, let's go and deliver it first." Aunt Chen's family is also very busy, and she didn't mean to blame at all after hearing Hu's words.Thinking of the incident that Xiao Mo fell into the water some time ago, he immediately walked up to the two children sitting on the ground and looked, "Is Xiao Mo feeling better? We are busy these days, and we don't have time to come and have a look."

"Xiao Mo is already in good health. Xiao Mo will help mother peel the corn as soon as possible. You can go to work first." Xiao Mo didn't know how to address him, so he had to send someone away first.

"Okay, then I'll go first. Xiao Songniang, I'll go first, you can be busy, I'll come back and see Xiao Mo." Aunt Chen didn't stay too long, Aunt Li was still waiting for her, and she was a little busy now.

Watching Aunt Chen leave, Mrs. Hu saw the two children sitting on the ground obediently peeling corn, and went back to the kitchen to prepare lunch without any danger.

"Xiao Mo, that was Aunt Chen next door to our house just now. Aunt Chen's family is doing well, and they often come to our family to eat those rice noodles." Ti Xiaomian knew that Ti Xiaomo didn't remember who, and carefully explained to Ti Xiaomo .

good man!I will definitely repay them!Ti Xiaomo thought in his heart.

"Brother, let's peel the corn as soon as possible. After peeling the corn, let's hurry to give it to Mr. Zhang's house." I can also go out and see what the world looks like that I haven't seen outside. After all, I know more about myself. What kind of plans should I make.

"Xiao Mo, we have to dry the corn after peeling it, and then send it to rich man Zhang's house." Seeing Xiao Mo's move suddenly full of fighting spirit really made me feel a little helpless. "And your corn peeling is so delicate, how long will it take to peel the corn? Look at me, it should be peeled like this quickly."

Ti Xiaomo peeled a corn two or three times when he saw a small sample, but he peeled that leaf one by one, which was too delicate and too slow.

"Okay, I will peel like you. Let's peel it soon, brother, come on."

ah?come on?What is it?Does Xiao Mo want to eat oil?Am I going to ask my mother for some?
"Brother, why are you still standing there in a daze? Hurry up and peel it off!" Ti Xiaomo reminded when he saw Ti Xiaoman's dazed expression.

"Okay, let's peel it off!"

"Brother, hurry up, let's quickly peel off everything on the ground."

"it is good……"
