In the Days of Being a Maid In Ancient Times

Chapter 7: Coincidence with two eggs

Holding Xiao Rui for a while, seeing that it was getting late, it didn't feel so hot anymore. Go back to the house to wake Ozawa and Xixi.

I'm going to pick up firewood in the mountains. This village has mountains and water, and the environment is very good. Let the two brothers take the younger sister, Yang Yu took the basket, rope, and sickle, followed behind, and went to the edge of the mountain to pick up firewood, and there was no great danger with the children.

When I got to the mountain, I saw that there were already many children around. Eight or nine-year-olds brought their younger siblings to pick up firewood. Yang Yu saw that the surrounding wood was almost picked up, so he walked inside with the child.

The two children along the way also helped her a lot. Yang Yu wanted to see what to eat around. It would be better if there were eggs. She didn’t think about the prey, and she didn’t know how to hunt.

The firewood was almost picked up, and the animals were not found, but they were all common wild vegetables, so she just dug a little. Suddenly I saw Xiao Rui running towards a half-year-old child, "What's the matter with you, Brother Erdan?"

Yang Yu watched the child fall to the ground with a large bundle of firewood on his back, with bloodstains leaking from his hands. She also hurriedly ran over. The child must have fainted from hunger. There was no blood on his face, and his mouth was dry and white.

Poor child, who is so cruel. He took out the kettle and secretly dropped a drop of Lingquan inside, and then fed the child a little water.

After feeding him, he looked a little better than before, Yang Yu patted his face. "Er egg, wake up."

Erdan slowly opened his eyes in Yang Yu's shouting, "Auntie, what's wrong with me."

"You kid hasn't eaten for a few days, and you fainted from hunger."

Ozawa: "You auntie is too bad. Brother Erdan, has she not given you food for several days?"

"I'm fine, just go back and drink some water, thank you auntie," Erdan said and was about to get up. Yang Yu hurriedly pressed him back again, and untied the firewood tied to him.

"How hungry is your child, do you still have the strength to bring these things back? You lean here and rest for a while." She asked Xiao Ze and Xiao Rui to watch people around her, and took them out of their arms. Three eggs came out, which were boiled yesterday. I wanted to give them to my children at night, but I forgot. This time, let's give it to the second egg.

Erdan: "Auntie, I appreciate your kindness, but I can't ask for this egg. It's so precious that it's not easy for you to bring your younger siblings. Take it back to Ozawa Xiaorui to eat. I'll just go back and drink some water. Don't worry, my aunt doesn't dare to starve me to death."

"Why are you so stubborn, look at how hungry you are, and you still have the strength to go back. Before you go back, you died on the way. Yang Yu said with a slight reproach.

"Hurry up and eat after listening to Auntie." Then she picked up the eggs and handed them to him. "Take it!"

"Thank you, Auntie." Saying the second egg, he gulps.

She handed him the water, afraid that he would tuck it. Picked up another egg for him. The ten-year-old boy held the egg in silence, his shoulders were thin and only bones were left, and there was no flesh on his face.

There was no vitality in his eyes, so he held the egg like this, and tears fell drop by drop into the soil. Yang Yu was so distressed when she saw it that she secretly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"Cry out if you feel wronged!" Yang Yu patted him on the shoulder and cried.

From crying softly to crying loudly, she looked at the half-year-old child, her face covered in her arms, and her shoulders shrugged. A ten-year-old child is helpless in this era, and can only rely on his uncle's family. The uncle's mother is not good.

The trousers on his body are a lot shorter, and the torn shirt can see the flesh, although people are very poor in this era. But now is not a disaster year, and there is no such thing as a family's child process.

Looking at this thin little shoulder, Yang Yu thought to help him if he was able. Yang Yu could understand the pain in his heart.

Erdan cried for a while, calmed down, and said goodbye to her, "Auntie, thank you, I will definitely repay you if I have a chance. I have to rush back now, or my auntie will have trouble again."

Looking at him carrying the firewood on the ground, hunched over, and staggering forward, his thin back looks extremely desolate.

"Ozawa, go to your brother Erdan after dinner in the evening, and ask him to come and find me. Don't be discovered by others. Forget it, you should go to Brother Erdan's house!" Yang Yu thought to himself. She couldn't give him the food in the space, she could give him Zhou Wei's ragged clothes, at least it could cover her body, and his aunt wouldn't **** it away.

After watching Erdan go back, they started their journey of collecting firewood again. Looking at the grass that reached her calf in front of her, Yang Yu intuitively told her that there should be something here.

Let the three children wait outside, Yang Yu went into the grass with a wooden stick, she was also afraid of snakes, so she dared to walk with the stick, and after searching for a long time, she could not find anything, just when she was about to give up , a pheasant suddenly flew out of the grass in front.

"Mother, pheasant, look at the pheasant," the three children shouted there, looking excited. Yang Yu was a little frustrated, she saw it too, but this thing was not easy to catch, so she could only watch it fly away.

Yang Yu walked to the place where it flew, and found a nest of wild eggs, left three for it, and Yang Yu took away the rest.

After taking the wild eggs, she went back to the child and showed them. When Zhou Wei was there, he often came to the mountains to hunt and improve the food for the family, so both brothers had seen wild eggs.

Only Xixi was pregnant with her at that time, and she hadn't seen his father since she was born. Since Zhou Wei left, no one at home has come out to hunt, so Xixi has never seen it before and feels very novel.

Yang Yu gave her one to play with, and put the rest in the basket, but she actually put it in the space. Now she won't talk nonsense without her telling the children.
