Chapter 140 You have to wait patiently

After measuring the size, Han Mingxiu took out the new vegetables such as spinach, celery, rapeseed and chives that he brought for them, and also took out about twenty ears of green corn.

Uncle Gao and Auntie Gao, like Aunt Su, opened up a small garden in their own yard. They could grow some vegetables in summer, but the garden was too small, and the vegetables they planted were not enough to eat. And there is no money to buy it, so every time Han Mingxiu comes over, she will bring them green vegetables that are almost enough for a week. In this case, the vegetables she brings plus the vegetables grown in their own small garden will be enough for them to eat. .

Han Mingxiu's explanation for these green corn sticks is, I planted them in my homestead. They ripen earlier than those in the ground. I'll bring a few ears to give you a taste.

Uncle Gao and Aunt Gao haven't eaten green corn for many years. Since they were released, it's good that they can barely fill their stomachs. How can they eat tender green corn? Therefore, as soon as they saw the green corn, the old couple couldn't help drooling.

This is good, fragrant and tender, we haven't eaten this for many years... Uncle Gao held those corn sticks in a rare manner, and slapped his mouth with emotion.

Seeing that he liked it, Han Mingxiu said indifferently, Uncle Gao, if you like to eat it, I will give it to you next time. I have grown a lot.

Hey, no need, just give us one to quench our cravings. Although this tender corn is delicious, the corn syrup is not full yet. It would be a waste to break it off and eat it now. It's better to wait until the corn syrup is full If you break it up again, you can get a lot of food. When Uncle Gao heard that Han Mingxiu wanted to bring it to him, he hurriedly waved his hand to refuse.

Han Mingxiu said with a smile: It's okay, my family is big and I plant a lot, and my ration fields are also planted with corn.

That can't be so wasteful. The corn is still growing. How stupid is it to eat it now? Just give us a taste of it, but don't waste it again... Aunt Gao also refused.

Han Mingxiu didn't argue with them. She has tender rice in her space, and it's okay to serve them all year round, not to mention only for a period of time?

No matter what they say, she doesn't bother to argue with them, anyway, she'll just take it next time.

Xiu, you haven't eaten lunch yet, so just eat here. Auntie will give you the corn. Aunt Gao opened a ear of corn and pinched the tender grains on the tip of the corn. The yellowed slurry flowed out, and the tenderness of the rice was just right to eat.

Han Mingxiu still wants to go to a few more homes at noon, but she doesn't want to waste time here. Besides, she eats glutinous rice almost every day, and she is tired and crooked. Then eat the glutinous rice.

No, Auntie, I still have something to do. Han Mingxiu categorically refused.

She had already thought about it, and when the warmth was delivered from house to house, she would go to the state-run hotel to poke and feel the atmosphere of the state-run hotel in this era.

Note that she is now a person with food stamps, and can freely enter and leave any restaurant in the country.

When Aunt Gao heard that she still had something to do, she didn't keep her any longer, she only told her that her clothes would take a week to be made, and asked her to come and pick it up in a week.

After leaving Aunt Gao's house, Han Mingxiu went to Uncle Zhou's house.

Uncle Zhou's legs are healed now, but he can't stand for a long time. He still needs to walk with the help of crutches, and every time it rains, the wounds on his leg bones will still hurt and itch. This sequelae, I'm afraid To be with him forever.

Of course, these are all later stories.

When they arrived at Uncle Zhou's house, Han Mingxiu's bicycle also caught their attention. Knowing that Uncle Zhou was a soldier and might hold an important position in the country in the future, Han Mingxiu deliberately mentioned her fiancé.

She told them that her bicycle had been bought by her fiancé, who was a fine man who had held an important position at the age of twenty-one.

Uncle Zhou listened, nodded approvingly and said, Very good, young man, you can do a lot!

Han Mingxiu didn't say any more. She already recommended Huo Jianfeng to Uncle Zhou. I believe he must have an impression in Uncle Zhou's heart. If he has the ability, Uncle Zhou will definitely promote him in the future. Without that ability, her fiancée can be considered to have done her best to him.

Afterwards, she took out the green vegetables and green corn that she brought to them, as well as the herbs picked for Uncle Zhou.

Uncle Zhou's legs can be healed so quickly, Han Mingxiu can be said to have contributed. She not only used all the antibiotics left in her space for him, but also often picked some herbs for him in the mountains to treat bone injuries. , to treat him.

In addition to the herbs, Han Mingxiu also bought him meat and bones to help him nourish. If it weren't for Han Mingxiu, Zhou Xilong's injury would never have healed so quickly, and he might have died by now!

Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that Han Mingxiu is their savior.

Uncle Zhou, Auntie Zhou, like Uncle Gao and Aunt Gao, were very happy to see the green corn cobs. Uncle Zhou also talked with great interest about their brothers stealing the corn cobs at home and roasting them when they were young, and they were chased and beaten by their mother. fun thing.

How many of my brothers, I can run fast. My mother beat my eldest brother and the younger brother, so I ran away. My mother chased me for more than a mile with a fire stick, but she didn't catch up...

Han Mingxiu laughed, Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou laughed, too. Uncle Zhou suddenly said leisurely, If my legs and feet are now, my mother will be able to catch up.

Knowing that he was thinking of the past, Han Mingxiu felt a little depressed, so he persuaded him to explain, Uncle Zhou, aren't your legs much better? It will definitely get better and better in the future, and one day it will heal. You have to wait patiently!

Uncle Zhou smiled and said, You little girl can speak quite a bit, and my heart is really brightened by what you say!

Han Mingxiu smiled and said, I'm not talking about coaxing you, I'm telling the truth. If you don't believe me, look at it. This kind of days will not be far away. In a few years, you will return to your old ways. in life...

Uncle Zhou agreed and said, I think so too. If it wasn't for this belief, we'd probably be gone. Forget it, don't talk about it, girl, have you eaten? Otherwise, it's right here. Let’s eat it, it happened that you brought the green corn, and Uncle shamelessly borrowed flowers to offer to Buddha, how about you have a meal of roasted corn?”
