Zhang Xiaoquan directly to make fun of, this small shameless, "you ah, you, how can boast of their own beautiful, really shameless!"

"Hum!" Light rain snorted.

"By the way, Xiaoyu, I know what you just said about" smart and cute ". What does" resourceful "mean?" Koizumi scratched his head in doubt.

Ah?

"What does that mean, enough wisdom?"

Xiaoyu quickly changed the topic, "Niang, you see my brother has made so many, is there any extra basin at home?"

She looked around. There was only one basin at home, and a small basin for washing face and feet.

"Ah? This is the only basin in our house! " Zhao Qunli naturally replied, I don't know why Xiaoyu asked.

My God!

Light rain a pat forehead, I drop a god!

All right, all blame her. Why ask such a question?

Xiaoyu found two bamboo baskets at home, which were rotten and broken.

Alas! Xiaoyu sighs in his heart. Forget it. Let's make do with it first.

After washing, take out the ferns in the basin and hang them in the frame and beside the frame.

After Xiaoyu's gag, Zhang Daniu was not so angry.

Seeing that the water at home was running out, I took up the burden and went to carry water.

And so on vacates the big wooden basin, the light rain they continue to get back later the fern with the same method processing, soaks in the water.

Koizumi did not go out again, so he stayed at home to help Xiaoyu.

At this time, it was getting late. Zhao Qun washed his hands and prepared to cook.

"Mother! Make steamed bread with the flour you brought back yesterday! Don't put corn in it. It's not delicious.

Tomorrow, my brother and I will go back to town and buy some flour. " When the time comes to buy two catties of pork, she really wants to change the taste, and her mouth doesn't taste.

"You girl, how can you eat all the expensive things in one meal? You should save some." But Zhao Qun can't bear to see the thin Koizumi and Xiaoyu.

Finally, he said with a smile, "OK, let's eat white flour steamed bread instead of corn and corn flour."

It's all because they have no ability to be parents. Their family is so poor that their children have nothing to eat.

At home, the corn planted is only 2-300 Jin a year, and the corn kernel peeled is only about 100 Jin at most. The per capita tax is 10 jin for each person a year, and their family gives 40 Jin a year.

This is still good. Sometimes when the imperial court increases taxes, the situation is even worse.

The rest is the family's food for a year. Their family also grows some sweet potatoes, but the land is not fertile and there is no modern fertilizer.

There are two baskets in one year, but they are very small.

Mixed with wild vegetables to eat, barely pull up their brothers and sisters. Koizumi's father, who is usually in charge of the family, will also go out to do small jobs for large families, or work as a stonecutter to make up for his family.

"Niang, if you want to order, let's make steamed buns." What's good about steamed bread.

Even if there is no sugar or meat, it's OK to make a la carte bun!

"Ha ha, you girl, the idea is more, OK, mother to get some wild vegetables to make steamed buns, give you this little greedy ghost to eat." Zhao Qun went out to look for wild vegetables with a smile.

Leave the brother and sister with a silly smile.

Before long, Zhao Qun came back with a handful of wild vegetables and a small white radish.

"Ah, it's a dry day. Even the vegetables in the field don't grow. Even a radish grows like this. What can we do next?"
