The five children got together and started tinkering with their little stove.
When Xie Rongen came out, he secretly took some steamed buns from the kitchen room. Grandma had just steamed them yesterday. Moreover, the Xie family's life was not too bad, and they were not so strict about food.
Xie Rongzhao directed his brothers to boil the wild eggs first, and then began to stew the chicken in the stone pot.
In addition to the chicken, they also brought radishes. When the chicken was almost cooked, they cooked it directly in the pot. It was very fragrant!
Unknowingly, the Xie family's children have become close to each other.
The Xie family's food is not bad on weekdays, but it still feels novel for several children to eat like this outside. Moreover, they are all children. There are no elders around, so they don't have to be restrained, and they eat more happily.
In fact, Xie Rongzhao just took a chicken wing and ate it slowly. She was not very hungry to begin with, and because she was young and ate slowly, the Xie brothers did not dare to let her eat too much, so as not to accumulate more food.
But Xie Xiaolang ate the most.
He ate a steamed bun by himself, and also ate a lot of chicken and radishes.
In fact, Xie Xiaolang kept picking up carrots at first, maybe because he felt that there were two other clan brothers who were studying today, and he was embarrassed to eat meat. It was not until Xie Ronghui gave him a piece of chicken that he became bolder.
After dinner, the half-grown children got some firewood together so that Xie Xiaolang could go back and do business.
After going down the mountain, Xie Ronghui hesitated for a moment and then said, "My fourth brother and I will take you back."
They all know that Xie Xiaolang's life is difficult, but Xie Changgui has never been short of Xie Xiaolang's food and drink, and Xie Changgui's own family is not very wealthy, so naturally they can't expect him to be very kind to his nephew. .
Xie Ronghui wanted to go over and say a few words to help, at least let Xie Changgui's family know that Xie Xiaolang was not unattended.
Although Xie Rongen was very strong, he could only shock those children.
For Xie Changgui, the words of a scholar like Xie Ronghui are not as effective.
Xie Rongzhao looked at the eldest sister who came over to hold her hand and expressed concern with confusion. He didn't understand why he was so popular.
"Third sister, I have been staying at my aunt's house for the past two years, but we are sisters. I even fed you porridge when you were a child."
Xie Rongzhao just smiled naively. Not to mention that she was just six years old now, even in her previous life, she would not have remembered that this eldest sister fed her.
I can't believe what Xie Ronglan said.
After all, the eldest brother had always looked down on the second eldest brother. Xie Rongrong didn't even salute Liu Ruolan, an elder. How could Xie Ronglan, who prided himself on being noble, be willing to condescend to feed her?
Just thinking about it makes me think this is a dream!
However, Xie Rongzhao did not expose it. After all, they were still living in the same place, and they were not separated, so it was not easy to break up.
Xie Rongzhao blinked. Since he mentioned friendship, it was just right. She was about to celebrate her birthday, and this good sister took the initiative to come over. I would be sorry if I didn't cheat her!
"My eldest sister has been away from home for a long time. I am young, so I really don't remember much. But my birthday is coming in February. I remember that several brothers gave me a lot of things last year, but only two sisters didn't give me anything."
Xie Rongzhao didn't feel at all that he had done too much, let alone feel ashamed.
Anyway, she was young, she was only six years old after her birthday, and she was telling the truth.
With Xie Rongrong's temperament, it would be considered a kindness not to snatch her things, but she still expects to give herself a gift?
These words are also a disguised reminder to Xie Ronglan.
If you want to act like a good sister and have a good reputation, you have to pay something.
Is there any good thing to eat without vomiting?
Xie Ronglan's face turned stiff as expected, but it quickly returned to its original state.
"What do you like, third sister? Although I don't have much money, I can still buy you some gadgets or snacks."
Xie Rongzhao's eyes immediately shone: "Really? Sister, are you really willing to buy me a gift?"
Xie Ronglan smiled and said: "Of course I am willing. You are my third sister. How can I not miss you? In the past, it was because I was in Fucheng and had many things to do, so I inevitably missed it. Now that I am back, I naturally want to I want to celebrate your birthday properly."
"Thank you, eldest sister. I'm not greedy. I just want a few pastries. But the pastries are too expensive. I have only seen my second sister eat them, but I don't have the money to buy them myself."
Xie Rongzhao's mouth is very sweet. Anyway, as long as there are gifts to accept, the most important thing is to make their sisters shed some blood, otherwise, I will be sorry for calling her eldest sister so many times.
Xie Ronglan breathed a sigh of relief. She was afraid that the child would ask for some silver bracelets or the like, just a few pastries, but she would not take it seriously.
Xie Rongzhao was distracted, thinking that it was through this eldest sister in his previous life that his bracelet ended up in the hands of the heroine in the book. What was it called?
Xie Rongzhao knocked on his head. By the way, he was named Wang.
This eldest sister is very high-spirited and always acts as if she is a lady and others are weak-legged. However, she did not live a comfortable life in her previous life.
Xie Ronglan did have an affair with a rich man in her last life, but she had agreed to be his real wife, but within a few days of entering the house, she was demoted to a concubine by her husband's family for some reason.
Of course, this was because Xie Ronglan was reluctant to part with the wealth of her husband's family. Originally, she could reconcile with the man. Even if she was divorced, she could always marry into a good man's family and be the head wife when she returned to Gaoyang County.
But Xie Ronglan refused. She only wanted to live a wealthy life. Even if she was a concubine, she felt that she had no worries about food and drink and was wearing gold and silver, which was much more respectable than those ordinary ladies.
It was precisely because of her thoughts that ultimately led to a series of tragic and hateful changes in her later life.
Xie Rongzhao's thoughts were interrupted, and his little head was spinning. At this time, he was already held in the arms of the beautiful father.
"What are you thinking about, dear baby?"
Xie Xiuwen really wanted to know what this girl was thinking. She was so absorbed in her thoughts that she didn't even notice him coming over.
"Dad, I'm thinking about studying abroad."
Xie Xiuwen was startled. He had not mentioned to anyone about his upcoming study tour after spring. How did this girl know about it?
"Dad, Brother Jingzhou said that many students will travel around to study when they are fifteen or sixteen years old. It can take as little as a few months or as long as a few years. Is it true?"
Xie Xiuwen chuckled: "Indeed, there are, but not every student has such capital."
Xie Rongzhao nodded like a young adult, then stretched out his little hand to pat his shoulder: "Don't worry, Dad, go on a study tour. My good boy will make money for Dad!"
Xie Xiuwen was in a good mood after hearing this, so he teased her: "Studying on a study tour costs a lot of money. If dad uses it, Guobao and your mother will not be able to buy new clothes and jewelry. Guobao, are you willing to give it up?"
