"Little darling, what should we do now?"
Zhao Di asked this question because she was really undecided.
But life goes on. My mentally challenged brother is currently in a coma, and my own father is also in a coma. Should I let them die or let them live?
Xiao Guai didn't say anything and went straight into the house.
He broke the pill in half and stuffed half a bowl of medicine into the mouths of the father and son who were lying side by side on the bed.
Then, Li Daxing and his mentally challenged son swallowed two mouthfuls of water instinctively.
Zhao Di asked somewhat nervously,
"What did you feed them? You're trying to kill us!"
They were afraid that Xiao Guai would really take Li Daxing's life, and if Li Daxing really died, they would have no food to eat.
"Don't worry, this isn't poison. After they take it, they'll both become complete idiots."
Since they've become fools, things are easier. We can coax them a bit and get them to earn work points and food for us.
Life can still go on, it's better than your dad beating people when he's sober.
Zhao Di was stunned by these words and asked in surprise,
"There's even a drug that can turn someone into an idiot?"
Xiao Guai clapped her hands and jumped off the kang (a heated brick bed).
"Of course there is. Don't say anything more, don't worry, go back to your rooms and go to sleep."
What's the point of staying here?
They should wake up tomorrow, and then life will go on as usual.
"well!"
Zhao Di was so excited she didn't know what to do. She hurriedly pulled her two younger sisters to the next room, but then suddenly remembered that Xiao Guai was sleeping in the next room.
Last night they slept together on the father's big kang (heated brick bed).
Normally, only her father sleeps in this room, while her mentally challenged younger brother, Da Bao, sleeps in another room. The three sisters squeeze into one room.
But now that Da Bao and his father have both become mentally challenged, let them sleep in the same room.
They cleaned up Da Bao's room so it should be a place where he can sleep.
The three of them didn't dare to disturb Xiao Guai, so they immediately ran to Da Bao's room and started tidying up. Da Bao's room was easy to clean. Even though he was mentally challenged, the three sisters always kept the room very clean. So now they were just moving their own things in.
At this point, they didn't believe their relationship with Xiaoguai would change.
They were afraid of Xiaoguai, but they had no choice but to listen to her.
Even now, when they have nowhere to sleep, they don't dare to squeeze onto the same kang (heated brick bed) with Xiao Guai. For some reason, all three of them are afraid of Xiao Guai, thinking that Xiao Guai is like a demon.
After tidying up the house, the three sisters started worrying about what to eat.
Although there are 80 jin of cornmeal, it is obviously problematic to eat 80 jin of cornmeal until next spring.
Because they don't have many sweet potatoes and yams left.
We can eat for at most ten more days.
If only Li Daxing and Shadan'er Dabao eat 80 jin of cornmeal, it will definitely last until spring.
But now that the three sisters have already eaten cornmeal, it's impossible for them to eat potatoes.
At this moment, I can only try not to think about anything and sleep until dawn, waiting for morning.
Zhao Di got up, lit the fire, and prepared breakfast.
I carefully cooked some cornmeal porridge and added some yams. Even if you don't like cornmeal, you can still have food.
Each person gets a large bowl, but it's mostly water with very little cornmeal.
But compared to usual, the three sisters felt like it was Chinese New Year.
From childhood to adulthood, they had never eaten white flour and could only eat cornmeal a handful of times.
In the summer, they have to go out and dig for wild vegetables themselves, and then bring them back.
They ate with their sweet potatoes, yams, and summer vegetables.
It's considered food!
In winter, they can only rely on sweet potatoes and yams, sometimes with some radishes grown at home.
Being able to drink cornmeal porridge felt like celebrating the New Year. The three sisters didn't mind at all and drank it in big gulps.
Xiao Guai looked at the thin, watery cornmeal porridge. This porridge would just fill her belly with watery soup once she drank it.
I was really hungry. Even though I was only three and a half years old, I couldn't get enough to eat, and my stomach was sore and my hands and feet felt weak.
After finishing their meal, the three sisters left the youngest to watch the house while the other two prepared to go up the mountain to chop firewood. If they didn't bring back firewood, the whole family would freeze.
Just as the two were about to leave, they saw Xiao Guai following behind them, and Zhao Di hurriedly said.
"Little darling, don't go up the mountain. The road is difficult and it's very cold. Let's go up the mountain to chop firewood and come back."
"I'll go up the mountain with you and take a look. Do you want to eat cornmeal porridge every day?"
Zhao Di was stunned.
I don't know what Xiaoguai means!
"Don't just stare at me like that. I'll come up the mountain with you. You can chop wood, and while we're at it, we'll check out the traps."
If we can catch some wild animals in the trap, whether we exchange them for money or food, or eat them ourselves, it's better than drinking cornmeal porridge every day.
Even if you drink it at every meal, you won't be able to drink it until next spring.
Since Xiao Guai is here, he can't just go hungry, even though he has the body of a three-and-a-half-year-old. But he has the mind of an adult, so he naturally has to find a way to survive.
We can't just starve here.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Di slapped her forehead and realized she had forgotten about it.
Yes, Dad's traps are still on the mountain. They should go and take a look, no matter what.
Even now, I don't mind that my little one has short legs and can't walk fast.
The two of them took Xiao Guai up the mountain and encountered many people when they left the village.
Seeing the two sisters with Xiao Guan carrying ropes and axes, you could tell they were going up the mountain to chop firewood.
They couldn't help but shake their heads, wondering how Li Daxing was doing now. If Li Daxing was dead, the three sisters would be in big trouble.
The two sisters, along with their little one, carefully searched through all of their father's traps, one by one.
To everyone's disappointment, none of the traps contained any wild animals; no prey fell into them.
Xiao Guai carefully examined the trap, then shook her head.
"Your father took all the grain from here. How could any wild animals possibly come here? People aren't stupid."
"Come on, let's rearrange it!"
Xiao Guai took out the small cloth bag hanging on her shoulder.
This contains some corn kernels and wheat kernels, as well as chopped pieces of yam.
I made a point of going for a walk around the chicken coop this morning.
Although we didn't kill the chicken, we did get some chicken blood from it.
Smear the snow on these yam chunks and throw them into the trap; the smell of blood will surely attract wild animals.
The three of them then quickly left.
Zhao Di and Lai Di were walking with difficulty, their steps faltering. Clearly disappointed at not having caught any prey.
Fortunately, the three of them each carried a bundle of firewood and went straight back to the village. As soon as they reached the gate of the courtyard, they heard the younger sister crying inside.
"Let me go, let me go, I won't go with you."
