Cannon fodder for his brother

Chapter 22 The Maid Who Wants to Climb the Bed

Waking up from a burst of dizziness, Ning Hong held her drowsy head and sat up on the straw bed.

The house is too broken.

The bed is a straw bed, and the roof is also straw.

It seems to be raining outside, and it is also raining lightly in this room.

The wooden door hangs crookedly on the edge of the door.

It is estimated that it should fall over with one foot.

Is this really broken?At a glance, there is a table with patched legs and two other chairs with broken legs in the middle of the table.

Being so poor, it's no wonder that my sister later embarked on that path.

"Brother, you're awake." A thin girl came in carefully holding a bowl with a broken edge.

While staring at the bowl closely, he swallowed his saliva.

"Look, we have something to eat, it was given by the aunt next door."

"That man is so stingy, how could he be willing to give us something to eat?"

"I knelt at the door of their house. Brother, if you don't eat something, you won't be able to hold on." The girl licked her dry and chapped lips, and gathered the old cotton wool coat on her body.

This coat has been worn for a long time, and it doesn't fit well, and there are still many places where the yellowed cotton wool is exposed.

"You kneel at their door?"

"That's right, I heard that my brother-in-law is going to rely on a scholar. This reputation is very important, and the sister-in-law of the hall wants to save face, so she threw me a small bag of coarse grains.",

Although it was coarse grains, there was only such a small bag, about two catties, but it was enough to fill her brother's stomach for a few days.

It doesn't matter to her, it is winter now, there is snow outside, and she is very hungry, so she can fill her stomach by grabbing snow.

"Then let's eat Nuo Nuo."

"No, you eat. You will get better if you eat."

Nuomuo is very sure and authentic.

"But"

"Brother, I'm not hungry. I really am not hungry. It's so round here." Nuonuo patted her belly.A smile appeared on his dirty little face.

Ning Hong, who was watching, was suddenly sour.

"Nuonuo, go and close the door."

"Okay? Brother, do you feel cold?" Nuo Nuo obediently closed the door.

She is already ten years old this year, but she looks like she is only about six years old. She has a thin body and a very big head.

The exposed hands and feet are a little swollen, which doesn't match her thin body. ,

After closing the door that was hardly useful, Ning Hong beckoned to Nuo Nuo, and Nuo Nuo climbed onto the bed.

"Brother, you can't sleep, do you want Nuo Nuo to sleep with you?"

Nuonuo stretched out her hand and patted Ning Hongze's shoulder, "Brother, go to bed quickly."

"Brother doesn't sleep, brother has something to say to Nuo Nuo?"

"whats the matter?"

"Brother met Daddy in a dream."

"What?" Nuo Nuo's cat eyes widened when she heard the word "Daddy".

It looks kind of cute.

"What did daddy tell you?"

"He asked me to take good care of you." Ning Hong rubbed Nuo Nuo's dry hair. Fortunately, there were no lice on this hair, otherwise, even in ancient times, he would give Nuo Nuo's hair all shaved.

He is impatient and catches lice one by one.

"What else did daddy say? Did he tell you where the food is stored at home?"

"Where does our family store food?"

"Hmph, I knew it." Bai was overjoyed. Food was what their family needed most. "Nuo Nuo didn't have much of an impression of this father. In short, he was running outside all the time, and their mother kept crying. Later, the father disappeared, and after seven days of crying, the mother abandoned them and remarried.

"Then what does daddy want you to do? He doesn't want to take you away, does he? This is impossible." Thinking of this possibility, Nuo Nuo stood up from the bed, "You are the only family member left. "

After their mother remarried, they never came back to see them. At that time, they were still young, and their elder brother was only ten years old. They were digging wild vegetables and catching pheasants for food.

As for their family's field, their family originally had three acres of land, but his grandma said that they were young and didn't know how to plant it, and leaving it in their hands would be a waste of land. It's better to let their uncle plant it and give them some every year. Food is.

Ning Hong agreed.

They really can't do farm work.

It's just that they didn't expect that, as originally agreed, three hundred catties of grain a year, grandma said, to replace his father's pension money, and if he had no money, he would pay with silver. Throughout the year, he gave them fifty catties of grain. Whole grains.

As for their house, it had been sold by his mother a long time ago.

The silver was taken away by her.

It is said that relying on these money, she remarried smoothly.

The thatched hut where they live now was given to them by the village chief for free when he saw how pitiful they were. It was at the foot of the mountain, a little far away from other homes in the village.

However, being far away has its advantages, at least the area is large enough, and the two brothers and sisters can grow some good vegetables in the yard.

As for Ning Hong, why was she unconscious.

This was beaten by his uncle.

He is 14 years old this year. In modern times, 14 years old is just a child, but in ancient times, 14 years old was already able to start a family.

He wanted his uncle to return the three acres of land in his family to him.He farms his own land and will never let his sister go hungry again.

As for the pension for grandma, he will also remember, anyway, he will give 250 catties of grain a year.

It's just that the uncle has been farming for so many years, and he has long regarded these fields as his own. How could he be willing?
For a while, they quarreled.

His uncle was young and strong, and he pushed Ning Hongze down in one fell swoop, and Ning Hongze's head hit the rock in the field, bleeding a lot.

Thanks to the cold weather, the blood froze instantly, which was able to save Ning Hongze's breath.

The uncle was also ruthless. He checked Ning Hongze's wound and saw that he was still breathing. The son wrote a letter of transfer, and directly pressed his fingerprints with Ning Hongze's blood.

A deed to transfer the three acres of land

Ning Hong touched the treated wound on her head, then reached out to touch Ning Nuonuo's leg.

"Hiss, brother, don't touch it."

Ning Hongze's hand had just touched Ning Nuonuo's knee, and Ning Nuonuo gasped, tearing from the pain.

Ning Hong's expression changed, and she hurriedly lifted up her pants.

"elder brother."

Ning Nuonuo's knee was already swollen, it could even be said to be frostbitten.

"You said it's winter, what are you doing kneeling like that?"

Ning Hong distressedly took out a pair of knee pads and frostbite ointment from his shopping mall. He used the frostbite ointment to carefully apply a thick layer of frostbite ointment to Ning Nuuonuo's frozen area, and then gave the knee pads to Ning Nuo Nuo. Glue it on.

The warm feeling dispelled the itchy feeling in the knee, "Brother, what is this?"
