Before Chu Qing could respond, Grandma Rong came forward cheerfully, took the basket, and placed it on the cabinet. At the same time, she opened the cabinet, took out the snack basket, and placed it on the kang, saying,
"Hurry up and get on the kang. Have a good chat with your sisters and have some snacks. These are brought back by Guaibao's uncle and his family. I heard that you kids like them. Don't be polite with me, or I won't accept your soup..."
The household contract responsibility system was implemented not long ago. Especially since their area is all mountainous and they have to reclaim the land themselves, many households have moved to several nearby villages one after another. The land conditions in those villages are better than here, and the transportation is also convenient.
The twenty or so households left behind can only eat until they are 70% full at each meal. Meat is too expensive. If the little fat girl had not grown up with Rong Qing and usually gave her some delicious food and some useful and fun things, Grandma Rong would really not accept it.
When the little girl saw the delicious food, her eyes sparkled and she laughed twice. She didn't hesitate to take off her shoes and got on the kang, not forgetting to look at Grandma Rong:
"Grandma, why are you being so polite to me? Every time I come here, you always bring me delicious food, and I've never been polite to you before. So, please don't be polite to me." His eyes turned to Chu Ling'er, who had been standing at the door without moving since he entered, and he was a little puzzled:
"Ling'er, what are you doing? Are you trying to be the door god for Xiaoqing's house? It's so cold at the door. Come over here quickly. There are lots of delicious food and chocolate. Come quickly, the kang is very warm."
Grandma Rong also came to the door:
"Come sit on the kang quickly. The door is still drafty. I'll go to the kitchen to get bowls for you to drink your soup."
Chu Ling'er was finally pulled back from her thoughts and forced a smile in response:
"Ah, well, I just got distracted."
Then he finally raised his feet and stood in front of Rong Qing. He took out a handful of dried crab apples and a handful of hazelnuts from the big pocket of his cotton-padded jacket and placed them on the kang table. He said softly:
"Xiaoqing, you know that the things that my brothers and sisters get from me are too little. There is really nothing worth giving away. And the only time we get a piece of meat is during the New Year and other festivals.
I can't make you a big casserole of bone soup like I did for the little fat girl, but I've been secretly hiding these dried crab apples and hazelnuts for a long time, and I can't bear to eat any of them, so please don't be disgusted by them."
Rong Qing just glanced at the dozen or so pieces of dried sand apples and less than thirty small hazelnuts.
Suddenly a memory came to mind:
In her previous life, it seemed that she had received these two things from Chu Ling'er. What she said at that time was basically the same as what she said just now. She had tried her best to refuse it several times.
I always felt that this was the only good thing my little sister had ever had since we were little, so how could I have the nerve to ask for it? So after three rejections, I just symbolically accepted three hazelnuts. I also took out most of the snacks my grandma had prepared for her from my small bag and gave them to her: candy, cookies, dried meat, butcher shop, dried fish...
What's the result?
The three hazelnuts didn't even have a kernel in them, and one of them even had a black, dry insect corpse inside. It really made her feel sick for a long time. That night, she only ate two small bites of her favorite spicy rabbit cubes made by her grandma.
Thinking back at this moment:
I really just want to call myself an idiot!
No, to be precise, it’s a big injustice!
Recalling this, her expression unconsciously turned cold. At first glance, she gave people a feeling of being frozen and frosty. Naturally, her voice was also filled with indifference and chill.
"Since these are all you have, how can I ask for more? Then you will be left with nothing. And you can see that I don't lack anything."
The heartless little fat girl who only wanted to eat nodded in agreement while holding the sweet candy in her mouth:
"Yes, yes, Ling'er, since this is all you have, put it away quickly. Xiao Qing really doesn't lack anything. She has so much. If it weren't for Xiao Qing, we wouldn't be able to eat it in our entire lives..." Turning to look at Rong Qing:
"Xiao Qing, it's so good to have you. In the next life, no, in the next life after that, I want to be your little sister again..."
Obviously, the little fat girl didn't see the vicious flash in Chu Ling'er's eyes when she said these words, and the face that was almost twisted with jealousy that she hid with her head down, and her fists clenched tightly in the wide sleeves of her cotton jacket, with her nails almost embedded in the flesh.
Of course, she couldn't hear the hysterical curses and shouts coming from Chu Ling'er's heart:
"Bitch, bitch, damn bitch, why don't you just die, ah, ah, ah why don't you just die?
Whether in the past life or now, why do you, a little bitch who is not wanted by your father and not loved by your mother, have so many good things?
Damn it, damn it, I will definitely make you lose everything, let you be humiliated and trampled on by others, worse than a rat in the gutter, die, die, all of you die..."
Rong Qing did not miss the changes in her emotions and breathing, which really proved the saying: A dog that bites doesn't bark!
In the first life, she took advantage of her relationship with her childhood sister and lived a prosperous life.
In this life, Rong Qing had no intention of blocking the road to wealth and success that she thought she would have, but it was impossible for her to take advantage of him anymore.
Suddenly his eyes fell on Chu Ling'er's wrist. In his memory, that was something she borrowed from him, and later became a storage space for her golden finger of rebirth.
Thinking of this, he closed his eyes, and his consciousness sank into the sea of knowledge. He looked at one place, where a shining sphere reflected a dreamlike mini world.
