Lu Li was very enthusiastic about the food. He grinned and said, "Sister-in-law, are you going to make spicy lobster tails today?"

Jiang Yan washed his hands and said without raising his head, "Yes, help me."

Before Lu Li nodded, Lu Xiao pushed him aside. He took over the work from Lu Li and said attentively, "Wife, let him take a rest. I'll help you."

Lu Li rolled his eyes speechlessly. The vinegar smell was too strong. His brother, who had already had a baby, was still acting like a mobile vinegar jar.

However, in his eyes, no matter what time, Jiang Yan is always the popular one that people are thinking about. It is better to be vigilant, for fear of the kind that is hard to guard against.

As a man, he understood too well the attraction of Jiang Yan to men. The good ones were fine, but the ugly ones made Lu Li's teeth itch. Don't get involved!

Therefore, whenever Lu Xiao went out on a mission, he would be distracted and watch over him, for fear that someone would poach him.

As brothers, you can fight or scold each other, but at critical moments, you must stand together to face the outside world.

Lu Xiao told him to go look after the kids and asked them to come back for food.

Lu Li wiped the water off his hands and said, "Okay, I'll go call them back."

When they heard there was food, they ran faster than him. They were all very smart.

Zhang Yulan came to the brigade headquarters and walked towards the woodshed in the backyard. The door was not closed and she heard coughing from inside.

Xiaofang patted him on the back and said distressedly, "Xiaoze, don't go out in the cold wind. Your illness will get worse. I'll go to the mountain to dig some herbs and boil them for you to drink. You'll get better soon."

The child in her arms was skinny, but his eyes were bright, "Sister, don't go out, stay in the house, I think it's going to snow again, it's very dangerous for you to go up the mountain alone.

When I get better, I will be with you. Mom and Dad are gone. I am the man of the family and I want to protect you."

Xiaoze thought of something and felt a little lost. He said sadly, "Sister, if there is someone who adopted you, just go with them. I'm fine. I can support myself. Don't always think about me. You have to think about yourself. I'm just a burden and will only hold you back."

As he spoke, his voice choked up, and Zhang Yulan felt very uncomfortable.

She also came from a poor era and understands the feeling of hunger and cold best. Even an adult can't stand it, let alone a child of a few years old?

She pushed open the door, and they subconsciously looked up. When they saw it was her, the two siblings breathed a sigh of relief.

They were afraid that someone would come in the cold winter and steal their food, which would make their lives even more difficult.

Zhang Yulan took out two hot baked potatoes from her pocket.

Xiaofang swallowed her saliva, her stomach growling with hunger, but she politely refused, "Grandma, we can't accept it. No merit, no reward. You've given me enough. I don't know how to thank you."

Zhang Yulan is a person with a tough mouth but a soft heart. Even though she curses harshly, every family in the brigade is left without food.

She turned a blind eye and let Lu Jiandang deliver it, which is why the villagers were very convinced of the couple.

Both of them are kind and enthusiastic.

Xiaoze coughed until his face turned red. He said in a hoarse voice, "Grandma, the food you gave me last time is still here. You can keep it and eat it."

He sniffed and seemed to smell a sweet scent, and his eyes fell on the basket in Zhang Yulan's hand.

Zhang Yulan lifted the white cloth and brought out the steaming sweet soy milk. Both of them couldn't take their eyes off it.

After all, she is still a child, who doesn't like to eat sweets? Soy milk? I heard that it is only available in state-owned restaurants in the city, and it costs a few cents a bowl!

They were poor kids and they couldn't even imagine it.

Zhang Yulan touched their heads and said, "This is what Auntie Pretty cooked. She asked me to bring it to you. The weather is cold, so each of you should have a bowl. Eat these potatoes first.

If you feel embarrassed, come and work with me in the fields in the spring. I will teach you how to farm and then ask the team leader to allocate a piece of land for you. You will learn how to farm and you will not be short of food or drink. "

Xiaofang's eyes turned red and she waved her hands, "Grandma, we don't..."

Zhang Yulan interrupted her, took a bowl with a hole in it, and shared it with them. "If you want to thank someone, go thank the pretty aunt. She likes to eat mushrooms, so pick some for her."

Xiaofang is young, but she is very strong-willed. Every time she delivers food, she will also send some firewood, mushrooms, etc. in return, as a kind of exchange.

Xiaofang's stomach growled loudly, and so did Xiaoze's, and they both blushed.

Zhang Yulan laughed heartily and said, "Drink it quickly, or it will become cold and unpalatable."

She looked around and said slowly, "This window is leaking. Tomorrow I'll ask your uncle to get a snakeskin bag to nail it shut. You'll have a better winter.

Don't go up the mountain, there are wild boars, and you can't go to places with high slopes and thick snow, okay? If you feel cold, come to grandma's house, and she will light a fire for you to warm up.

Look at your hands, they are all covered with chilblains, don’t they itch?”

The only bed in the room was missing a corner, and it was supported by bricks? Zhang Yulan took out the Harry Oil she carried with her and applied it on her.

Feeling the moisture dripping from her hands, Zhang Yulan sighed, "You're made of water, crying all the time? Grandma will find a way to find a family for you so that you and your brother can have something to eat."

Xiaofang nodded heavily and said obediently: "Grandma, we will listen to you, thank you."

Xiaoze also wiped the corners of his eyes. The people who treated him best in the village were Zhang Yulan and Lu Jiandang.

Others called them jinxes who brought bad luck to their entire family.

Xiaoze said solemnly: "Grandma, I will repay you in the future."

Zhang Yulan didn't take it seriously at all. How old is he? What does he know? As long as he is warm and well-fed, that's the best life.

She urged: "Drink it quickly, sugar is added to the soy milk, it is very sweet, grandma has to go back, you guys should make the fire bigger.

I'll ask my uncle to bring you some firewood in a couple of days. If you need any help, go find your uncle."

She likes these two kids very much. If she didn't already have grandchildren at home, she would really like to adopt these two together.

It's just a matter of making an extra bowl of rice, and life isn't as hard as before. She's worried about leaving it to others.

Child abuse cases are happening all the time nowadays. Who knows if you might encounter a pervert?
