Chapter 111 Component Issues
Although he didn't say that he was cautious not to pick up vegetables, he still didn't eat much meat when he only ate rice, so Ye Yuxuan said, "You eat it quickly. If you can't finish these, then you take it home."
Hearing this Then, Xiao Tong was stunned for a moment: "Why?"
"Is it because I didn't make it delicious?" Xiao Tong's eyes were a little dim, because he didn't make it well and wasted these things.
Ye Yuxuan saw that she didn't know that Xiao Tong had thought about it, and then she said, "I'm not used to eating overnight dishes. Your brother probably hasn't eaten yet, so you can bring him back to eat."
Hearing this, Xiao Tong was cautious. Thinking of it, when I went out, my brother said, "Send the pheasant to Aunt Yun and go home. Don't run around. But he didn't go home early and didn't say anything. He went to my sister to cook and eat. It is estimated that my brother will go home later. Will be angry.
"Are you busy?" Ye Yuxuan couldn't help asking, seeing his expression.
Xiao Tong suppressed the entanglement in his heart and shook his head: "No."
"Hurry up to eat, and clean up the kitchen after eating." Ye Yuxuan did not forget to repeat: "If the food is not finished, then you will take it back."
Xiao Tong wanted to say no, but he could see that Ye Yuxuan said that she was serious about not leaving overnight food, so she nodded.
Ye Yuxuan left the dining table and came back soon, but she was sitting aside, nibbling on the beef jerky while looking at Xiao Tong, and suddenly asked.
"Are you not going to school?"
Logically speaking, he should have been in school at his age. The point when he met him, there should be a schoolbag hanging on his body even after school.
Xiao Tong froze for a moment, and soon smiled and said, "No. I dropped out of school half a year ago."
"Why?" Ye Yuxuan wondered, at this time elementary school can't spend a lot of money, let alone Xiaoyi occasionally hunting. No matter how difficult it is, Xiaotong's money for studying is indispensable.
"Because, because...and no why, my classmates don't like me, so I won't read it."
"If you don't like you, you don't read it? You read to yourself, not to them. What if they don't like you? You are not RMB or food stamps. Why should people like you? "
Ye Yuxuan paused, and in Xiao Tong's surprised gaze, said: "It's not a problem if they don't like you, it's fine if you don't like them."
Xiao Tong smiled, and what my sister said is really good. Seeing the radiant expression on his sister's face, Xiao Tong knew that these words were not to comfort him.
However, he smiled, his eyes suddenly reddened, and there was anxiety and hesitation in his smile, but he still spoke.
"No, elder sister, because our composition is not good." When he said this, Xiao Tong looked at Ye Yuxuan's face carefully, and saw her startled, and he couldn't help but feel sad.
Bad ingredients?
Ye Yuxuan has been here for more than a month, and of course knows what the so-called bad ingredients mean.
"Talk about it."
Xiao Tong hesitated for a while, still speaking.
"My father died of illness when I was born. My mother, that is my mother. She worked as a helper for a wealthy family when I was three years old." Ye Yuxuan's mouth twitched, which is not good.

A widow, with two children, does not work for others, is it impossible to starve to death?
But at this time, such a mess is not surprising. It is estimated that children like to bully people indiscriminately, and adults should be more or less understandable.
Of course, Ye Yuxuan didn't want to think deeply about those reasons, because there were too many things in this period. For this time, these were all normal.
"Then why are you and your brother left?" She only heard Xiaotong talk about him and Xiaoyi.
There was a bleak across Xiao Tong's face: "My mother, she passed away when I was seven years old."
Ye Yuxuan suddenly felt that the beef jerky was tasteless.
Ye Yuxuan got up and left the dining room with the leftover beef jerky in Cao Cao's hand.
"Hurry up and clean up the meal."
Not long after, Xiao Tong had a good meal, washed the dishes and chopsticks quickly , tidied up the kitchen, and gave Ye Yuxuan a large pot of hot water.
"Sister, then you rest early, I'm leaving."
Xiaotong stood at the door of the hall, hesitated for a moment, and then walked in .
Ye Yuxuan was flipping through a novel. Hearing the sound, she raised her eyes to see: "Is everything done?"
"Well, I have all cleaned up. I boiled a pot of hot water for my sister, and the fire is almost ready to use."
"Where are the leftovers?"
Xiao Tong hesitated for a while, and said: "I used a large bowl to fill a piece. Sister, I will send the bowl back to you later."
"No need." It's just a bowl, it's not worth it. When the big night, run a trip.
Although he was mentally prepared, Xiao Tong was still sad when he heard the voice of rejection.
"Are you going back?" After Xiao Tong nodded, Ye Yuxuan put down the novel in her hand and said: "Wait." After that, she got up and walked to the back bedroom.
More than ten minutes later, when she came out again, she was carrying a net bag in her hand, with a piece of bacon in her hand, two small pumpkins weighing more than one catty, and three catties of crushed corn.
This crushed corn is not cornmeal with bran in the grain store here. It was crushed by Ye Yuxuan's good corn kernels in the supermarket in the world. Don't look at three catties, grab two handfuls and cook one pot enough for two people to eat.
There are a lot of things in her space, but she doesn't plan to give too much. Of course, these three things don't take so long, she did it on purpose.
"Take these back with you."
After finishing speaking, before Xiao Tong refused, Ye Yuxuan said again: "Help me close the door when you leave."
Xiao Tong nodded when he saw it. After receiving the net bag, he just turned to leave, turned around again, seriously.
She exhorted : "Sister, there is no leakage of money. If your sister doesn't like to clean up, she has to put her bags in the back room." Ye Yuxuan followed Xiao Tong's words and saw that the things she had scattered out of her bags had been sorted out. , The zipper of the cloth bag is closed.
"Okay, you go quickly," Ye Yuxuan waved away.
The small figure left the courtyard with a bamboo basket. Ye Yuxuan sat on the chair, smiled, stretched her hand over the bag, opened it, and when she saw the contents clearly, her brows wrinkled.

It is natural to know how much food stamps and money she put in. The small gold bars with the thickness of her fingers are still there, and her earrings are also there, and the food stamps are enough to count, that is, the money is not only not less, but also ten yuan more.
Looking at the half-old and not new unity, Ye Yuxuan was speechless. Does that kid mean to pay for the meal?
Selling a pheasant for twelve dollars and giving her ten dollars, he is not afraid to go home and be beaten?
Ye Yuxuan did not chase it out, not to mention the value of the things she gave at this time, but said that she had given back more than 40 yuan before, although it was Zhao Ruiying's money.
Chapter 112 There is Something Wrong
After sitting and reading the book for a while, Ye Yuxuan went to bolt the courtyard door.
Although most people think that Lin Lingling and the four of them use washing powder to wash their faces and damage their faces, they deserve it, but the person involved didn't think so. Ye Yuxuan met one of these four people these days, and they didn't look angry. Glared at her.
Every time Ye Yuxuan saw it, she couldn't help but want to laugh.
No way, there is too little entertainment these years, and finally there is something to entertain her, Ye Yuxuan said that she can laugh for a while.
Moreover, Ye Yuxuan had heard the housewife with a broken mouth in the water room the next day after the incident that the three of Zhao Hong were beaten by his own man, and she couldn't help feeling the slight bruises on the faces of the three of them. Secretly shook his head.
Therefore, Ye Yuxuan did not want to go back to the city today, and the committee compound was no longer there.
Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, I don't need to go to work, so I might as well stay here comfortably. Anyway, there are almost everything here, and even if there isn't, she can take it out of the space.
Put new and comfortable bedding and sheets on it, and then take out the goose plush quilt, and the pillow should be a comfortable memory pillow.
After hesitating, Ye Yuxuan came in to the bedroom with an iron stove filled with briquettes. She was worried about the circuit here. In order not to trip or burn due to excessive current, she didn't use the electric blanket.
When Ye Yuxuan was taking a bath, Xiao Tong hadn't returned to the Da Zayuan, but from a distance, he saw his brother standing there waiting at the entrance of the alley.
As soon as he saw Xiao Tong, Xiao Yi slapped his head and gave him a lesson: "Do you still know how to come back? What did I say before? I have been back for almost an hour, and you will come back at this meeting. ......"
Xiao Yi was still scolding, Xiao Tong hurriedly hung the bamboo basket in his hand on his hand: "Brother, stop scolding, let's go home." The words were interrupted, Xiao Yi Later I realized the doubt: "Aunt Yun gave it?"
"No." Xiao Tong smiled and shook his head, but soon thought of something, the smile on his face disappeared, and he whispered: "Sister gave it."
Xiao Yi's mouth twitched. It was because of that person last time that he came back late, and this time it was because of that person.
Up to now, neither of them knew the name of the person Xiaotong was calling her sister closely.
He wanted to say something, but Xiao Tong had already gone to the courtyard, and Xiao Yi had to follow it with the bamboo basket.
"You can't be so late every time, it's getting colder and colder now."
"Well, I know." It's never too late to think about it later. These last words, Xiao Tong said in his heart.
Although Xiao Tong responded, Xiao Yi looked at the younger brother in front of him, with doubts in his eyes. Now that he met that person, shouldn't Xiao Tong be happy? How could he be disappointed instead?
The lights in the courtyard were still so dim, except for the occasional candlelight from the cracks of the door in the aisle, and occasionally one or two quarrels and quarrels from someone's house, the whole courtyard was still quiet.
Xiao Tong opened the door and entered the house, and Xiao Yi immediately locked the door after entering.
Lifting the cloth covering the bamboo basket, I couldn't help being surprised when I saw the contents inside.
He thought he smelled the wrong smell just now, but he didn't know that there was indeed a smorgasbord of meat and eggs mixed with vegetables.
Xiao Tong sat a little bored on the long bench cushioned by bricks with half of his leg missing. He didn't wait for his brother to speak.
"I have eaten at my sister's house. My sister asked me to bring them back for you to eat." The
hot meal had already cooled down when I came back from the road. Xiao Yi looked at the bamboo basket. Something, looked at Xiao Tong again, and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong?"
Every time Xiao Tong saw that person, he was very happy. Even if a lot of things were hard to say, he would always have a happy smile on his face, but, This time I obviously went to that person's house and had a meal, so why didn't he feel happy?
"It's okay." Xiao Tong shook his head.
"Brother, I'm sleepy, I'll go to bed first, and go to bed early after you eat."
Seeing his younger brother who climbed onto the bed and pulled a thin quilt to cover his head, Xiao Yi frowned. He hadn't missed Xiao Tong's red eyes just now.
It's just that he knows his brother's temperament well, if Xiao Tong is unwilling, it's useless to ask.
Is that person angry with him?
But looking at the food brought back, Xiao Yi felt it impossible.
It's just... alas!
Instead of eating the hodgepodge of several dishes that Xiaotong brought back, Xiao Yi put the hodgepodge and another bowl of white rice in the cupboard, and simply ate the cooked vegetable porridge and eggs.
The kerosene lamp blew out, and Xiao Yi lay on the bed. Hearing a faint sob from above, his brows became tighter, but he did not make a sound.
As soon as the day was polished, Xiao Yi got up and cleaned up. The master said yesterday that there is a lot of work today, and he has to go early.
Xiao Yi took two vegetable nests and went out, and as soon as he left, Xiao Tong hurriedly got up from the bed.
Soon, the sounds of various houses opening doors came one after another.
In the compound courtyard, the sounds of cooking and yelling and reprimanding the children came one after another. After Xiaotong washed with water, he ate a wowotou which was still warm.
Waiting for the number of people in the yard to fetch water, and when no one was using water, Xiao Tong opened the cabinet and dumped all the food in the ocean bowl into the pot, then locked the cabinet, and went to fetch water and return to the ocean bowl. Wash it up.
The big sea bowl is brand new with blue ripple patterns. No one in the whole courtyard uses it. If he takes it outside and washes it, he will definitely invite people to gossip. Maybe he will tell who he stole it later.
When Xiaotong came out of the courtyard, he faced Li Dazhu who had come back from the night shift. Li Dazhu glanced at Xiaotong and saw that he was carrying a bamboo basket. He looked like he was going to find wild vegetables again, and cast his lips in disgust.
"At this time, there are no wild vegetables outside."
Xiaotong didn't answer, and left without raising his head.
"Hey, brat, see if you can, and dare to ignore Lao Tzu." Li Dazhu took a look and yelled at Xiao Tong's back.
"Who are you? Don't come back for dinner and sleep." Aunt Li, who was scrubbing in the yard, heard her son's voice, looked at it, and saw that it was him, so she shouted at him.
"I know, I know, I know how to urge..." When Li Dazhu saw the Caiwowotou in the bowl, he couldn't help but roll his eyes. If he knew it, he and his workers went to the factory canteen to eat small wontons.
Sprinkle two drops of sesame oil on a small wonton with a dime, and ask for a five-cent fritters. It tastes so fragrant.
He is twenty-three, and my mother is still in charge. He only leaves five yuan a month for his salary, and everything else has to be handed in. I don't want to find a wife if he has no money. He knows that he is in charge of the younger brothers and sisters every day. , Regardless of the major events in his life, do you still want to hug your grandson? !
