A peasant girl traveled through time and space, and she became prosperous
Chapter 42 No Blanket to Cover
After comforting my parents, my younger brothers and sisters outside also had their fill.
In the countryside of that era, in a year like this, every family was so poor that they could barely make ends meet, and they were even more reluctant to stay up late to light the lamps. They all went to bed early to save money on lamp oil.
Wen Meijiu took Yuanbao and Yuancai to her aunt's house. While walking on the road, Yuanbao suddenly asked her:
"Sister Meijiu, do you hate my parents?"
Wen Meijiu looked down at him. The light in his eyes was clear and transparent without any impurities. He was a relatively pure child.
Wen Meijiu smiled and asked, "What do you think?"
Yuan Bao was silent for a while and said:
“Sister Meijiu, you are a good person, I already knew that my parents were wrong.
My mother told me this morning that we would eat fragrant millet rice and sweet white steamed buns today, and I was very happy.
However, as soon as Lanling came to my house, my mother wanted to drive him away.
At that time, I felt very uncomfortable. She called me to eat, but I ignored her.
I want Lanling to share candy with me, and let me come to your house to eat meat.
If I eat by myself and don't let Lanling eat, I'd feel guilty."
As Yuanbao spoke, his voice gradually lowered, and he sounded a little sad.
In the past, when Second Great Aunt's family was doing well, they sent a lot of good things to their family, but his family never sent anything to Second Great Aunt's family.
His mother also asked him to get closer to his second eldest uncle's family, saying that his second uncle was well-educated and it would not hurt to learn from them.
He thought at the time that if he studied hard, he could make a lot of money and repay the favor to his second eldest mother's family.
However, ever since his second uncle got into trouble, his parents and grandmother's attitude towards his family has completely changed.
As a child, he became more and more confused by the adults' intrigues and didn't know which of their words were true and which were false.
Fortunately, no matter how the family treated the second eldest aunt's family, they were still kind to their children. He thought this was what adults called magnanimity.
"My brother and I think the same thing."
Yuancai is a small man, and when he heard his brother say that, he jumped up and down to agree with him, as if he was afraid of being left behind.
Wen Meijiu smiled, is Yuancai imitating others?
"Sister Meijiu, please don't hate them. I will talk to them later."
Yuanbao was afraid that Wen Meijiu would hate his parents, so he quickly pleaded for them.
"Well, sister believes in you."
The children are so good, what does this have to do with the children?
With the warm wine, Yuanbao finally felt relieved.
"Sister Meijiu, when I grow up and make a lot of money, I will definitely treat you well."
Yuanbao is full of confidence.
He gently touched the tops of the two children's heads, and said, "Warm the wine."
"Well done, Yuanbao. I'll remember what you said."
Yuancai listened to Wen Meijiu praising Yuanbao and wanted to ask for praise: "Sister Meijiu, me too."
Wen Meijiu laughed out loud, Yuancai was Yuanbao's repeater.
I sent the two children to my aunt's house. There was light coming from the house, and I could hear my grandmother mumbling and cursing, but I couldn't hear it clearly.
Wen Meijiu was too lazy to listen. No one wanted to be scolded, so out of sight, out of mind.
"Yuanbao, take your brother back quickly."
Pushing Yuanbao and Yuancai forward, Wen Meijiu turned and left.
When he returned home, Wen Meijiu found that the lights in the main hall were off, but the lights in the east room were still on.
There are four rooms in the house. The one on the westernmost side is a bit leaky and is mainly used to store miscellaneous things.
There are three rooms left, the main hall in the middle, my parents live in the east room, and Wen Meijiu and my younger brothers and sisters live in the west room.
Now only the east room has the light on, I guess my younger brothers and sisters are all asleep.
Wen Meijiu planned to say goodbye to her parents and go to bed.
She pushed open the door of the east room, looked up and was shocked.
My parents' bed was crowded with people. My parents slept on one side, and my younger brothers and sisters slept on the other side. The bed was small, and the quilt was propped up high because of the crowds.
Seeing Wen Meijiu coming back, my mother quickly sat up and said:
"Good wine, go to bed in the house."
There were two quilts on the bed, and two people were stuffed into each of the small quilts.
Mother was wearing a middle-length coat. It was cold at the time, so Wen Meijiu quickly helped her pull the quilt.
"Jinxiang, Lanling, why are you two here with your parents instead of sleeping?"
While covering his mother with a quilt and warming up the wine, he scolded his younger brothers and sisters.
Jin Xiang raised her head aggrievedly and said, "Big sister, with a brother like this, do I have any choice?"
Mother stopped Jinxiang and said, "Go to sleep."
Jin Xiang felt even more aggrieved. She half-lay on the bed, turned around and patted Lan Ling on the head, who was shrinking his head.
"It's all your fault. You left me without a blanket. I failed to accomplish anything, but I failed miserably."
Lanling crawled out from under his father's feet, secretly glanced in the direction of the warm wine, wrapped his neck tightly, and said faintly: "I didn't want to, it's too cold tonight, I just wanted to keep my elder sister warm, I didn't expect it to be like this."
Jin Xiang slapped him on the forehead again: "There are many ways to keep my sister warm, but you only thought of the stupidest one. Wouldn't it be better if you could warm the quilt with your own flesh?"
If the villagers want to keep their kang warm, they either use traditional methods to burn pounded wood chips or buy coal.
There was no coal or sawdust in the house.
After eating the meat, Xiao Lanling wanted to show his courtesy, so he took a handful of straw from the kitchen to burn. The fire was very big and the result was predictable.
"What's going on?"
Wen Meijiu was confused and didn't know what was going on, so he turned around and asked his mother.
"Lan Ling burned two of our quilts. Tomorrow I will buy you two new quilts, the kind that keep you warm."
Wen Meijiu then realized that Lanling had accidentally burned the quilt when he lit the fire in order to keep her warm.
"Ah!" Wen Meijiu was startled and hurried to the west room to check. The situation was better than she thought.
She said, why do I smell a smoky smell as soon as I come back?
The outside of the kang was burnt black, a big hole was burned in the mattress on the kang, and two quilts were burnt. They were picked up and placed aside. I guess my mother was reluctant to throw them away.
At this time, there was only a quilt on the kang, spread out in the corner, lonely.
I guess this was left for her by her mother.
Standing in the west room, you can still hear Jinxiang complaining about Lanling in the east room.
Wen Meijiu sighed softly. Although Lanling had done something bad, his intention was good.
The temperature dropped several degrees today and it was really cold.
Dad’s legs are not in good condition, so he really needs to add an extra quilt to the bed.
She remembered that there were four new quilts in the space, so she decided to enter the space to take a look.
After entering the space, he checked the things inside, put them in order, then picked up the small box containing the silver and went to the computer desk.
She put the small box on the bookshelf, looked at the black screen of the computer and thought, it would be great if the computer could be powered on so that she could use it.
Just as she finished her thought, the computer screen flickered twice and then went out again.
Huh? What's going on? Is the computer powered on?
It's impossible. Although the technology in the 23rd century is very advanced, there is no stored electricity and no power source. No matter how her consciousness moves, the computer cannot be turned on because it has no energy support!
No, no, it must be because she was too tired recently and her eyesight was a little blurry.
Even though she was thinking this, she still couldn't help but start the computer again. Sure enough, the computer hesitated for a few seconds and then stopped working again.
This is a sign of low power, but what is it that is powering it?
Wen Meijiu moved his cup left and right, and thought about it over and over again, but the computer remained silent.
She was unwilling to give up, so she sat in the chair for a long time, thinking over her actions. She felt it necessary to fill in the gaps and repeat the actions, hoping that she would gain something.
It all started when she picked up the small box containing silver. She immediately took the small box containing silver from the bookshelf, walked from far to near, and then walked in front of the computer again, still thinking about starting the computer in her mind.
