Li Laifu didn't dare to wait any longer with these children. Not to mention how dirty their hands were, they had already pounced on them.
Li Laifu continued to walk up the mountain along the path in the village. Whenever there was someone at the door, they would call him uncle or grandpa. He nodded in response. Growing up in an orphanage in his previous life, he had never felt this way before.
You can already see grandpa's house. The only house under the yard of grandpa's house is his second uncle's house. This second uncle is not a relative yet. He passed by here on his way to escape during the war, and his grandma gave it to him. With just a bowl of rice, this boy had some eyes, so he kowtowed and bowed to the old lady. He had no choice but to accept her as his godson.
However, his second uncle was really filial. Li Chongwen went to the city, and the old couple was taken care of by Li Chongwu.
There were two boys at the door of his house. The two boys were wearing flour bags. They made a hole in the middle of the flour bags, put them on their bodies and tied a rope around their waists. These two boys were called Bruce Lee and Li Xiaohu. One was ten years old and the other was He was six years old, and there was a seven or eight-year-old child standing next to him, shouting: "Uncle, second uncle, please take me with you."
Li Laifu squatted in front of the three children and asked, "What are you playing for?"
boom,
The slime fell onto Li Laifu's face.
Lin Laifu saw the mud scattered on the stone slab and remembered that this was the mud cannon.
"Brother, you are back. I miss you so much," said the two children playing in the mud.
Before Li Laifu could answer, the child next to him scratched his head and said, "Then what is my name?"
Bruce Lee said: "You little fool, of course you call me uncle."
Li Laifu looked at his serious look and made him laugh hard.
"Uncle," the boy said obediently.
"Xiaolong, you also know that he calls you uncle, why don't you play with him?" Li Laifu looked at the child and said pitifully.
Li Xiaohu said seriously: "Brother, you don't know, his pee is very yellow. The last time I played with him, my hands were all stained yellow."
Forehead?
"You... you little brat, aren't you just pissing and making Niwan?" Lin Laifu asked.
Li Xiaohu nodded and said, "Brother, if you don't pee and make mud, you can't throw a cannon!"
Damn it!
Li Laifu immediately wiped off the mud that had just collapsed on his face and cursed: "You two brats don't know how to use water. Are urine and mud dirty?"
Bruce Lee shook his head and said: "That's not possible. My father brought the water up from the river below. My father said that the water has become less now. We can't rush. If I dare to use water, my father won't beat us to death."
After wiping his face clean, Li Laifu said, "Come with me to your grandpa's house to play!"
"Brother, we will go to grandpa's house to play with you after we finish dinner tonight. My dad won't let us run around now. He said that if we run too much, we will get hungry quickly," Bruce Lee said like a little adult.
Li Laifu felt inexplicably sad when he looked at the thin calves of his two younger brothers. It was obvious that they were suffering from severe malnutrition. If this continued, the children would all get sick.
Li Laifu secretly made up his mind to grow food as soon as possible, not for anything else, but for the sake of his two children. He also had to feed them. In his previous life, he was an orphan. In this life, he finally has relatives. Why? And maybe starve them?
"Then you can continue playing." Li Laifu walked towards his grandfather's house.
Pushing open the wooden door, his grandfather was lying on a deck chair in the yard, "Oh my God! Your grandson is here, I miss you so much," Old Man Li immediately got up from the deck chair and shouted.
"Grandpa, slow down, don't fall," Li Laifu walked forward quickly. Although the old man was very thin, he was in good spirits.
Old Man Li looked at Li Laifu and touched his head and said, "My eldest grandson has grown taller. He is almost as tall as your grandfather."
Looking at the old man's kind eyes, Li Laifu almost burst into tears. This was a kind of family affection that he had never experienced in his previous life.
Taking a deep breath, he looked into the room and asked, "Grandpa, where is my grandma?"
"I went to the mountains with your uncle and aunt to pick wild vegetables. What did you get?" Old Man Li asked.
Only then did Li Laifu remember the bag in his hand, and continued: "This is the sorghum noodles my father asked me to bring. He was afraid that if you eat wild vegetables every day, it would be bad for your health."
"If you don't care, he has to support a large family, so why should he send us food," said Old Man Li.
Li Laifu handed the flour bag to his hand and said: "Grandpa, here you are, you can eat it! Besides, there is still food in the city, and you have to wait until the autumn harvest every time."
Old Man Li took the flour bag, sighed, and said, "There is less rain this year. If the corn in the ground was almost ripe in previous years, this year will be another year of food shortage."
Old man Li went to put the grain away, and Li Laifu looked at the position in the courtyard near the window. There was a small plot of land planted with more than 10 or 20 corn plants, which were already as tall as one person.
When Old Man Li came out, he was holding a bowl of water and said, "Is your grandson thirsty? Drink some water."
Li Laifu drank a bowl of water and asked, "Grandpa, how can you grow corn in the yard?"
Old Man Li looked at the corn in the yard, smiling with wrinkles on his face and said, "This is the filial piety of your village chief Sixth Brother. In Lijia Village, your grandfather and I are the only ones who have this kind of treatment."
Old Man Li looked at the corn and said, "I did nothing every day and watered it hard to grow it. The corn in the fields under our mountain has only reached my waist now."
Old Man Li gritted his teeth and said, "Let your grandma cook you a bunch of rice tonight."
Li Laifu was really moved. Who dares to eat corn in this era? These days the corn is mixed with the cobs to make noodles, also called cob noodles.
He didn't refuse, not because he wanted to eat it, but because he wanted to pick out a few grains to make seeds.
Looking at Old Man Li taking out his pipe and lighting a cigarette, he said, "Grandpa, I'm hungry now, why don't I cook it myself?"
"Okay, grandpa, let me cook it for you!" Old Man Lin was about to put out his cigarette.
"Grandpa, I'm 15 years old. It's okay to boil corn. Just leave it alone."
"Okay, okay! My grandson is now a grown man. He will be able to marry a wife in two years. Your grandfather and I can also have a grandson."
Children of this era must be shy, but for people who have traveled through time?
"Grandpa, just wait until you have a grandson! When the time comes, I will let my wife have more children, and you and my grandma will take care of my children every day!" Li Laifu said with a smile.
"Okay, you have a child? Just send it to grandpa. Grandpa will help you raise it. Don't be like your father who takes my grandson to the city and comes back every few years. You are the only child of our Li family!" "
Li Laifu had already walked to the corn. Old Li sat on a chair and shouted: "The fifth ear of corn in the east grows best."
Break off the corn and take it to the kitchen. "Put more water in the bucket," Old Man Li explained.
As soon as he entered the kitchen, Li Laifu quickly peeled the corn and carefully picked out more than twenty kernels.
