The parents died, and the oldest of the three remaining children was only ten years old. They instantly became fat in the eyes of caring people.
As soon as Daya Niang was sent away, Daya's second aunt took advantage of the state's pension for the orphans of martyrs on the pretext of taking care of her newborn nephew Xiaozhuang.
Grandma Daya emptied Daya's family's food rations under the pretext of letting her grandson and granddaughter come to eat at her house.
If Da Ya hadn't been so clever and asked someone to find the captain of the Changbai Brigade, he might even have his own house taken over by his second uncle's family.
But although the house was saved, the valuable furniture in the house was borrowed by her grandmother and second aunt under various names, with no deadline to return them.
After that, within a month, Grandma Daya began to call her a loser behind her grandfather’s back, scolded her younger brother Da Zhuang for eating instead of working, and scolded Xiao Zhuang for being a sick boy.
In order to feed her younger brother, Da Ya secretly dropped out of school without telling her grandfather, and went to the fields to hunt pig grass and pick wild vegetables. In two months, she went from a pampered little girl to a dark, thin and timid girl.
But her grandfather listened to her grandmother's words and just thought that the granddaughter was playing wildly, and would scold her from time to time.
But how could Da Ya dare to tell the truth? If she did less, grandma would starve Da Zhuang. If she showed up when the captain of the Changbai Brigade came to visit, the second aunt would abuse Xiao Zhuang when she returned.
She didn't dare to quit, and she didn't dare to tell anyone, but she was just a ten-year-old girl. She felt aggrieved and frightened, and due to malnutrition, she fainted from heat stroke while hunting pigweed and never woke up.
The little girl was still thinking about her younger siblings until her death. That was the only warmth left to her by her parents.
At the end of her memory, the little girl was thinking about a piece of white sugar cake, which her great-grandfather left to her when she was young. The old man had a strong taste, but the little girl tasted it cloyingly sweet.
"When I see my great-grandpa, I will never drop the sugar cake on the ground on purpose again."
The memory stopped abruptly here, but Yun Shu, who had always been heartless, was already crying.
This is not a relative. Such a relative is simply more terrifying than an enemy.
Moreover, the reason why Daya's mother was born prematurely was because the second aunt told her mother the news of Daya's father's death with a lot of schadenfreude.
The eldest daughter's premature birth really frightened her second aunt, who also gave birth prematurely, but she gave birth to a daughter at seven months.
But if Grandma Daya hadn't been biased and asked the only midwife in the village to deliver the baby to her second aunt first, how could Daya's mother bleed to death? This was simply mother-killing!
Yun Shu's eyes turned red unknowingly, but the red lotus karma fire in the sea of consciousness suddenly became strong, causing Yun Shu's soul to feel pain, and then he woke up.
Then she was instantly frightened and broke into a cold sweat. Good guy, she was almost possessed again.
Yun Shu stood up, looked at the thin, small and dark hands, and smiled bitterly. If it had been before, Yun Shu would have really wanted to die. She was obviously here to provide for her old age, but she really couldn't bear to have Da Ya's memory.
If she really died, Yun Shu would doubt whether his two remaining brothers, Da Zhuang and Xiao Zhuang, could grow up healthily!
Since we don’t want to die, we need to take a long-term view. Now in 1964, the Cultural Revolution is not far away, and now there is even a hint of a spearhead.
So living a good life with two younger brothers is worthy of the body the little girl left for her.
…
While Yun Shu was thinking about something, the door curtain of the room was suddenly opened, and a dark and thin little boy walked in carefully carrying a bowl.
When he saw that Yun Shu was awake, the light in his eyes was brighter than the stars. He quickly put down the bowl, threw himself on Yun Shu and cried and laughed: "Sister, you finally woke up, you have been sleeping for two days. "
Yun Shu subconsciously touched her belly. No wonder she was so hungry. She pushed the little boy and said, "Dazhuang, sister is awake. Please give her some water first."
Yun Shu came from Hebei in his previous life and could speak Northeastern dialect, but it was not authentic. Fortunately, he was still young and his sister was so excited when she woke up that she didn't pay attention to these minor details.
When Da Zhuang heard that his sister was thirsty, he quickly picked up the bowl placed on the edge of the kang and said, "Sister, drink this. This is given by Master Wang. It can relieve the heat."
Wang Ye is a barefoot doctor in the village. There is a health clinic in the town, but it is too far away. On weekdays, people from all over the village come to Wang Ye for treatment.
Moreover, Yang Ye not only treats people, but also works as a veterinarian, and is very famous in hundreds of miles around.
In her memory, Da Ya overheard a few words from her grandfather, saying that Wang Ye was also a person in the past, but the world was not good, and his family was ruined by others, so he came to the mountains and forests to live in seclusion alone. It has been ten years since he came to Qingxigou.
Now 60 years old, he is younger than the 50-year-old. It is not difficult at all to go up the mountain to collect medicine.
If Wang Ye hadn't specially given Da Ya's mother a piece of ginseng for later use before going into the mountain, and Da Ya happened to know where it was, her mother might not have had the strength to give birth to Xiao Zhuang, and she might have killed two people. .
Yun Shu had to remember this favor.
Unfortunately, when Da Ya Niang was born prematurely, Wangye went into the mountains to collect medicine. When he found Da Ya Niang, Da Ya Niang's body was already cold.
This made Mr. Wang regretful, but who would have thought that Aunt Daya would be so vicious.
After Da Ya drank the heat-relieving soup, Da Zhuang took out another piece of dough from his arms. It was only about the size of two babies' palms, but it was made of white flour.
There is not much land for growing crops in mountain villages, and there is even less wheat and rice here. The main crops grown in the village are corn, soybeans, sorghum, millet, potatoes, and sweet potatoes.
Moreover, after enough food is paid to the state, it is only enough for the villagers to survive starvation. On weekdays, the village relies on collecting mountain products and hunting to exchange for daily necessities.
In this small mountain village, this white flour pancake was so precious that Yun Shu could not imagine it.
In the past, Da Ya's family did not lack these things, but now, the two siblings have not seen refined grains for three months since their mother died.
"This is also given by Wangye. I don't want it, but Wangye said that my sister must eat something good."
Da Zhuang was just a child after all. Smelling the aroma of the noodles, he swallowed secretly.
Yun Shu looked at the cold pancake and then at Da Zhuang, feeling extremely sad.
"Did you have dinner at my grandpa's house at noon?"
Da Zhuang was about to nod when he saw his sister looking at him sternly, so he had no choice but to tell the truth.
"Sister-in-law is back. My grandmother is killing chickens today. I woke up early and brought over two buns and a handful of cornmeal. She said that the family has been busy these two days and my sister is asleep again, so she asked me not to go over and eat. Grandpa just sent them secretly. Come here and give me two eggs."
Then Da Zhuang said angrily: "What's so delicious about chicken? I'm not greedy!"
Yun Shu broke off more than half of the dough and gave it to his younger brother, "Eat it, we are not greedy. When my sister is ready, we will also stew chicken for Dazhuang." Guarding the mountains and forests can make people starve to death!
From Da Ya's memory, Yun Shu learned that there were wild beasts in the mountains, and the mountain people never dared to go deep into the mountains when they organized hunting.
During the three-year famine, people were so hungry that they went into the mountains to try their luck. However, after going to several villages, fifty or sixty strong men were taken in total. The number of people who came back could be counted on five fingers.
Wolves and wild boars are not uncommon, as are blind bears, Siberian tigers, pythons as thick as buckets, and many unknown poisonous insects.
Even after 50 or 60 years, Changbai Mountain was still a deep mountain and old forest and had not been fully developed.
But Yun Shu is not even afraid of ghosts, so will he be afraid of these living creatures? What's more, the red lotus fire can burn even ghosts to ashes. When these beasts encounter Yun Shu, they will definitely bring food and meals.
