The little girl is also very diligent and always follows her mother to help with the work.
In this way, with the efforts of the three people, the Xu family's backyard finally became clean. Not only that, Ma Cuilan also tidied up Xu San's house.
Originally, she wanted to wash Xu San's dirty clothes, but Xu San didn't agree because it was already noon and he hadn't eaten yet, so he couldn't bear it anymore.
At noon, Xu San took out a few bags of instant noodles and prepared to go to the kitchen.
Ma Cuilan wanted to follow and help, but Xu San kicked her out because of the secret sauce.
In this era, a craft can support a family. After Ma Cuilan heard that it was a secret recipe, she decisively quit the kitchen and no longer participated.
Not long after, that rich aroma came from the kitchen again.
The little girl twitched her nose vigorously, enjoying the aroma wafting from the kitchen, and said, "Mom, Uncle Xu's noodle soup is better than yours."
Ma Cuilan rolled her eyes at her girl and pretended to be angry: "Delicious? Then don't eat the food I cook in the future!"
"Ah!?" The little girl looked surprised. She now knew that she had made her mother angry by saying the wrong thing, but with her little brain, she couldn't think of a way to answer, so she even shed tears when she was so anxious.
"Woooooo~"
The little girl began to wipe her tears. At this time, Xu San also walked out of the kitchen. She naturally heard what the mother and daughter said just now, "It's okay. Mom doesn't care about the food, so just come to my uncle's house!"
"Really?!" After hearing Xu San's words, the little girl stopped crying immediately.
"Fake!" Xu San hit the girl mercilessly.
"Ah, uncle, you are lying! Mom said good children don't lie."
"Uncle is not a child!"
"Then it's wrong to lie to people!" the little girl argued.
"Sometimes, it's necessary to lie. For example... your mother's noodle soup is better than your uncle's."
"Why?" The little girl's "One Hundred Thousand Whys" question was turned on.
"Because she is your mother! She is the person you are closest to, do you understand?"
"understood!"
"Okay, okay, eat it quickly, it won't taste good when it's cold." Xu San didn't educate the little girl any more. It would be useless to educate the little girl. Children don't understand the truth, so they should make the best of the situation and combine it with reality.
Seeing that neither mother nor daughter moved their chopsticks, Xu San continued: "I don't have any stinky rules here like men being superior to women. In this troubled world, it is fate that we can sit and eat together. Besides, aren't we still neighbors? Distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors! From now on, I may have something else to look to my sister-in-law for.”
Xu San's words touched Ma Cuilan very much. It was not easy for her to raise the children alone after her husband died.
In troubled times, it is even more difficult for a woman to show her face. Not having a man in the family always makes her suffer humiliation, unreasonable criticism, and there are many villains prying at her.
If it weren't for the little girl, she probably wouldn't be able to survive.
Listening to Xu San calling her sister-in-law again and again, she suddenly felt as if she really had a family member.
Xiao Meizi seems to like her too...
After thinking about it, Ma Cuilan picked up a pillar of strange-looking noodles and put it in her mouth.
Suddenly, the rich fragrance instantly filled the mouth, and a sense of satisfaction welled up in my heart.
The noodles are not very strong, but the soup is really unforgettable!
She usually eats simple food, with little oil and salt, but taking a bite like this out of the blue really made her feel comfortable.
As a child, her mother cares most about her own child. She stopped using her chopsticks when she saw the little girl happily eating.
Xu San is not stupid. Of course he knows what Ma Dongmei is thinking, so he says: "The noodles are still very good, open them up and eat them!"
"No, thank you Brother Xu. Your noodles are too oily and watery. I'm afraid my stomach won't be able to bear it after eating too much."
"Then Xiaomeizi can bear it? Look at her, she has finished the whole bowl, but you haven't taken these two bites yet? You are such a big person, you can't eat as much as a child?"
"I really can't eat anymore, let Xiaomeizi eat it." Ma Cuilan said and gave the noodles in the bowl to the little girl.
The little girl was about to move her chopsticks when she saw Xu San staring at her with strange eyes.
Biting the end of the chopstick, she looked at Ma Cuilan, and after thinking for a moment, she seemed to understand something, and then pushed the bowl down in front of her mother: "Mom, I'm full, you should eat these."
The child was sensible, and Ma Cuilan didn't give in to avoid making Xu San laugh.
Children are always curious, and they become even more curious after eating. The yard of Xu San's house has become his new playground, and he will play with any small thing for a long time.
But what interested her most was the warehouse. Several times when she passed by, she tilted her little head and tried to peek through the crack in the door, but every time she was unable to do so.
When Xu San was handling the corpse of the Japanese, she could see clearly.
A corpse is scary and disgusting to adults, but to an ignorant child it is novel and fun, and even to some children, it is just a large toy.
"Want to see it?" Xu San's voice was like the devil's temptation, tugging at the little girl's heartstrings.
"think!"
"plum!"
Ma Cuilan scolded and looked at Xu San with an angry look.
There was a bloody corpse inside. How could a child see this?
"It's okay, everything has been taken care of. Sister-in-law, if you don't believe me, you can take a look first."
The noon sun shone warmly on Xu San's face, casting a faint halo. The smile on his face was kind and natural, not like he was lying.
Curiosity is not only found in children, but also in adults!
This is what Ma Cuilan is like now.
But she still asked aloud: "Really?"
"real!"
Standing in front of the shabby gray-brown wooden door were a mother and a daughter. The mother was in front and the daughter was behind.
Mother's hand was on the door, hesitant.
"Creak---Gah"
The wooden door was pushed open anyway, and curiosity defeated the fear in my heart.
The warehouse was very empty, with almost nothing visible except a few old wooden shelves and a few broken jars.
No bodies, no smell of blood!
Handled very cleanly!
Such a scene made Ma Cuilan even more curious about Xu San.
But years of being a widow taught him that it was better to do less than to do more. The less he knew, the safer she and the little girl would be.
"Mom, can I see it?"
"Yes, but the things inside cannot be moved!"
With her mother's consent, the little girl immediately rushed into the house happily.
The house was very empty and there wasn't much stuff, but that didn't slow down the little girl's desire to explore, especially those broken jars and jars that were her key exploration targets.
It's a pity that the Japanese are not hiding inside.
The little girl is very disappointed!
.
It was difficult to do business during the war, otherwise how could Xu San work part-time.
Similarly, Ma Cuilan's tailor shop is even more difficult to build.
These days, not many people can afford new clothes.
After this incident, the two adjacent stores were able to communicate.
In the afternoon, Xu San briefly cleaned the shop and prepared to open it, but after taking stock, he thought it was better to forget it.
There are too few products. Apart from needles, threads, and pots and pans, there is almost no inventory.
The shelves are deserted and you can easily scan them at a glance.
With nothing to do, I could only go for a walk on the streets to see if there were any business opportunities, and buy some rice, flour, oil or something along the way.
Traveling through time is not just about fighting ghosts, but also about eating and making money.
Ping'an County, which is approaching the New Year's Eve, should be very lively, but the Japanese's material control has made it very depressed.
Most of the businesses have closed down, leaving only large shops with good backgrounds.
Prices are very high, especially food. Xu San only spent three yuan to buy food that could last for half a month. It was still coarse grain, and it was still at pseudo-military prices. If it were ordinary people, the price would be much higher.
As for vegetables, apart from Chinese cabbage and potatoes, there was almost nothing else.
Maybe,
We should arrange greenhouse vegetables and the like.
The first thing Xu San thought of was glass. The production process was not too complicated, but he seemed to be unable to afford it with his little capital.
Then there is plastic. It has been born in this era, but it has not been widely used. It is still a rare thing. Even if Xu San wanted to get it, he couldn't get it.
However, the plastic sheet doesn't seem to be difficult to deal with, maybe it's just a little troublesome.
There are more than 200 sets of costumes in Xu San's warehouse. Basically, each set of these costumes has a large packaging bag to prevent dust. If they are taken out individually, they should have a large area.
It's impossible to use it on a large area, so it should be no problem to have a vegetable garden in your backyard.
Plant some eggplants, peppers and tomatoes, and they will be ready to eat in a month.
Not only can you eat it yourself, but you can also give it away or sell it!
Xu San, who already had an idea in mind, was no longer in the mood to go shopping. He asked a carpenter for a ladder and went home directly.
Regarding the ladder, Xu San still wanted to give him money, but the carpenter didn't dare to accept it.
If you dare to ask for money from the puppet army for a few nails, you really don't want to live.
.
As soon as it got dark, Xu San got into the warehouse with an ax in hand.
As soon as they entered the warehouse, they saw the Japanese lying there with their arms stretched out.
There was still a lewd smile on the mutilated head. Seeing this smile, Xu San became angry and kicked her twice more.
Put down the ax and turn on the computer.
Sure enough, as Xu San expected, in inventory management, he found a new product [Japanese Corpse], quantity 1.
Item name: Devil’s corpse
Object type: Corpse
Supplier: XX Regiment xx Squadron of the First Army of the Japanese Army in Western Shanxi (Yoshio Utsuka)
Residence: Pingan County
Usage: specimen materials, meat materials, etc.
Weight: 111KG
Height: 162cm
Place of Origin: Showa, Gunma Prefecture
Note: Can be disassembled.
Putting down the mouse, Xu San carefully studied the devil's information.
Although it's not much, it can bring him a lot of information.
The first is the supplier, which lets him know which organization the devil belongs to, and the subsequent location and place of origin can also provide a lot of useful information.
This function made Xu San very interested, and he could find clues about this person from the root.
It's a pity that currently only dead people are listed as commodities.
Otherwise, this system is really a magic tool for identifying traitors.
Disassembly, the function in this note is usually used on those large equipment, which can be assembled and disassembled.
But what will happen if it is used on a Japanese corpse?
Is it divided into back trough, girdle, tenderloin, and front trough?
