The stinky pig intestines were rubbed clean by her with salt.
After washing the intestines, she carefully washed the pig trotters. She carefully scraped the pig trotters with the knife.
Her ten thumbs kneaded it as if she was massaging it. The white pig trotters with a hint of red looked very cute under the clear water. Zhao Lanxiang, who was greedy for meat, couldn't wait to simmer it with her spices.
Half a catty of pig trotters wasn't a lot of meat, and there were only a few pieces. However, Zhao Lanxiang, who was shy of money,
Could only temporarily suppress his desire for meat.
Fortunately, apart from the cost of a meat ticket, the rest of these two things were very cost-effective. Two cents for a catty of intestines,
Ten cents for pig trotters. She deliberately chose pig trotters that were evenly distributed. Thinking that it was still early, there was still time to stew five-spice pig trotters.
Sister He hadn't finished work yet.
The He family didn't cook dinner that early, so she borrowed the He family's stove.
She blanched the pig trotters with water.
She soaked them with wine and soy sauce for half an hour. Then, she fried the next meal with oil and ginger slices. She wrapped the spices into a spice bag and put it into a small pot. She put the pig trotters into the small pot and slowly simmered them. When the water was almost dry, the pig trotters had become oily and red.
The water in the pot bubbled. Satisfied, she sniffed the rising fragrance and put the lid on the pot.
He Sanya returned home first.
She put down the heavy pigweed on her back.
Smelling the fragrance, she couldn't help but walk to the woodshed. This was a strong and overbearing fragrance.
When the hungry people smelled it, their stomachs became even more pained with hunger. He Sanya's mouth was dripping with saliva.
She saw Zhao Lanxiang in the woodshed and seemed to be stunned.
She looked greedily at him.
She turned her head and ran to the yard to drink a big bowl of water.
She bit a handful of vegetables and drank with the water.
Zhao Lanxiang, who was focused on cooking, was startled by the sudden appearance of this little girl.
Then, he saw her lying by the well, drinking raw water and eating wild vegetables. He couldn't help but feel annoyed.
She led the child into the woodshed and lifted the lid of the small pot. Eight pig trotters were stewed until they were soft and sweet, glistening with oil. She took out a bowl for San Ya, picked up a piece with her chopsticks, blew on it, and placed it in front of San Ya's mouth.
"Go ahead."
He Sanya revealed a row of pearly white teeth and lowered his head to nibble on his fingers like a little beast. She was not shy at all. She did not understand the complicated rules of the adult world. She was used to being treated coldly by others. Even when she was beaten, she did not cry. She was so timid that she was like an emotionless puppet.
However, as long as he treated her slightly better, the bright smile in her dark eyes would be as warm as the flame on the stove. After she finished eating, she buried her face in the bowl and giggled, licking the taste left in the bowl with all her might.
He Songbai saw this scene when he returned from feeding the pigs.
In the dimly lit woodshed, the little flame licked the small pot warmly. The dancing flame outlined the woman squatting by the stove, looking extremely gentle. That silly girl of his was eating rice and meat around her.
Everything was harmonious, except for the fact that San Ya was eating meat with the woman.
His face darkened and he called out to San Ya.
"Who told you to eat food for free?"
The young man's deep and hoarse voice was filled with uncontrollable anger. He strode over to He Sanya and picked her up with one hand. With a sullen face, he pulled out a few crumpled tickets from his pocket and put them on the table. His voice was stiff as he said,
He said in a stiff voice, "Don't give her food so casually in the future."
Zhao Lanxiang's body couldn't help but take two steps back. He Songbai's fierce expression made her feel like he was going to beat someone up.
Then, he really beat He Sanya up. He hit her butt and made her stand in the corner. However, He Sanya was used to being beaten up and was very stubborn. Although she was beaten up by her brother, she still ate two pieces of pork trotters. Even when she was standing in the corner, she was still smacking her lips and thinking about the delicious smell of the pork trotters.
In reality, she didn't know that she was eating pork trotters. How could she know what pork trotters tasted like? This poor child rarely had the chance to eat pork throughout the year. After that, this meal of pork trotters became a taste that He Sanya would never forget for the rest of her life.
Zhao Lanxiang was both angry and amused. She walked in front of He Songbai and said, "I'm the one who gave her food. What does a child like her know? Why don't you just beat me up too?"
He Songbai stood in the same spot. He felt a sense of unbearable sadness spread throughout his body. He really wanted to let his cute little sister eat to her heart's content. She had never had a good meal since she was born. When she was two to three months old, she didn't have any milk to drink. It was his older sister who mixed sweet potato powder with water to feed her until she grew up. But no matter how hard he worked, he still couldn't get a full meal.
He could only blame the heavens for letting them reincarnate into the He family and suffer with him for nothing.
He Songbai's dark eyes were covered with a layer of dust. He only looked at Zhao Lanxiang once before turning around and going into the firewood room. His large hands grabbed two handfuls of brown rice and began to make the He family's dinner.
Zhao Lanxiang felt that his gaze just now made her feel like her heart was suddenly broken.
… …
When Sister He came back that night, He Sanya called her from the corner of the wall with a smile.
Zhao Lanxiang took out the pork trotters and intestines. She gave them a bowl of rice and said with a smile, "I ate a free meal last night. Let's eat together today."
Big Sister He hurriedly shook her head. Yesterday's meal was considered sumptuous for them because there was more rice than usual. However, it was still too shabby. How could it compare to the meat and rice that Zhao Zhiqing put out?
Zhao Lanxiang had already put a few pieces of intestines into Sister He's bowl. She said with a smile, "Although this is meat, it's all pig offal. It's not worth much. Sister, don't worry and eat it!"
This friendship was too precious. Sister He looked at Zhao Zhiqing with gratitude. She used hot water to soften the rice and brought it into the room for her grandmother to eat. Whenever the family had something delicious, they would always leave it for her to eat first. The rice that Zhao Zhiqing bought was all fine grain. It was so soft that it seemed like it would melt in the mouth. It was soft and smooth, with a faint sweetness. It wasn't like the coarse grain that they ate, which made their throats hurt.
Sister He felt guilty and satisfied as she finished the meal. This meal was almost the most delicious she had ever tasted in her life. After Zhao Zhiqing finished eating, she scraped the bowl clean for her sister to eat. Aside from He Song Bai, the He family's entire family ate until they were full and satisfied.
At night, when Zhao Lanxiang was taking a shower, Sister He groped her way to her room in the dark. She put a stack of money on Zhao Lanxiang's table and carefully pressed it with the celadon vase.
This money was the "rent" that Zhao Lanxiang paid yesterday.
In the crowd of dark heads, Zhao Lanxiang accurately found Zhao Yongqing and Feng Lian's location and smiled sweetly at them. Zhao Yongqing's face was tense and serious. Feng Lian was carrying Little Huzi. The moment the car started, Little Huzi suddenly burst into tears. His two little arms kept reaching forward as if he wanted his sister to carry him.
Originally, Zhao Lanxiang didn't feel sad about parting, but because of Little Huzi, her nose was sour and her tears almost fell. The city quickly receded in her field of vision, and was finally replaced by green mountains and clear waters.
After alighting from the car, the instructor read the name list. About ten people stepped forward and were assigned to the Qing Miao Commune in N City. Jiang Li was among them. When he saw Zhao Lanxiang, he was shocked and immediately showed a strong sense of rejection.
Zhao Lanxiang couldn't help but sigh at her fate with the Jiang family.
The person in front of her was Zhao Lanxiang's sister-in-law in her previous life. She came from a high-ranking family and was arrogant. She always looked down on Zhao Lanxiang. She was picky and arrogant and often created a mess for her to clean up. In the past, for the sake of family harmony and Jiang Jianjun, she tolerated this young lady. But now …
Zhao Lanxiang pretended that she didn't see anything. She treated her as air and was immersed in the joy of meeting He Songbai.
Cars, trains, and bullock carts were changed. When Zhao Lanxiang arrived at Hezitun, it was already the next morning.
Zhao Lanxiang deliberately changed her clothes before alighting from the train. She might be able to meet the old man when she entered the village.
How could she be so careless when meeting him for the first time?
After she put on the new clothes, she looked completely new. She was clean and tidy, and looked very different from the wrinkled educated youths in the carriage.
Jiang Li was exhausted by the long-distance bus. When she arrived at Hezitun, she had become a soft-footed shrimp. She didn't even have the strength to stare at Zhao Lanxiang.
In the end, only the two of them were assigned to Hezitun. However, there were three educated youths from other places, which was just enough for five people.
They sat on the bullock cart and went over the bumpy mountain road. Zhao Lanxiang put the fructose in her pocket in advance. With a smile on her face, she followed the instructor into the village with her head held high.
Several little black radish heads squatted at the entrance of the village and watched a group of educated youths enter the village.
Zhao Lanxiang just glanced in that direction casually. Her eyes suddenly lit up. Even the sickly and weak Jiang Li next to her was infected with her uncontrollable joy.
Zhao Lanxiang saw He Songbai's younger sister, He Songzhi. She had seen a photo of He Songzhi when she was seven years old. She looked exactly the same as the little radish head in front of her.
She put her hand in her pocket and walked over to give each child a candy.
He Songzhi, the little radish head, squatted far away in the corner. She was so timid that she didn't dare to approach the children. Her face was dirty as if she hadn't washed it for several days. She only looked at the children with a pair of envious eyes. Her clear black and white eyes were full of expectation. She couldn't help but look at Zhao Lanxiang. Her skinny little hands continued to dig the soil.
After Zhao Lanxiang finished distributing the candy to the children, she walked over and gave the sweetest and most expensive chocolate candy to He Songzhi.
She smiled and asked, "What's your name?"
