As soon as the document of severing the family relationship was written, it was clear that Dabao and Xiaobao could not be sold, and the money that was about to be obtained was gone. Mrs. Hu felt that her heart, liver, spleen and kidneys were all aching. How could she be willing to see us? She immediately got angry; "Get out, get out, get out right now, leave here right now. Don't come back even if you starve to death."
I pulled Dabao and Xiaobao back into the room, opened the closet, wrapped up the patched clothes casually and put them on my back, picked up the quilt on the bed, and walked out of the room.
Mrs. Hu quickly reached out to grab it: "I'm dying, you ungrateful bastards, who allowed you to take the quilt away? This is ours, you can't take it away?"
Mrs. Hu ran over to grab the quilt while cursing. I quickly moved aside, holding the quilt and walked out of the gate of the yard. I couldn't let her take the quilt away. I'm an adult and it doesn't matter. Although it's spring now, children will still catch a little cold at night. It's not good for them to get frozen.
Hu's cursing voice came from behind, and the clan leader grandfather growled; "It's enough to have money, take care of Hu, how did Dalang treat you back then? The quilt was bought by selling the hairpin on Dalang's wife's head at that time, I'll give it to their mother. If you make trouble again, leave here."
Standing on the road holding a quilt, to be honest, I felt so confused. In ancient times, people were completely in the dark. But at least I have more knowledge than these ancient people. I just don't believe that I could starve myself to death.
The voice of the clan leader came from behind; "Let's go, I'll take you there. It's a long way to go there by yourself, and it's getting late, so it's better to settle down early."
By this time, it was almost dark. In ancient times, unlike modern times, there were street lights everywhere. It was always a good thing to have someone to take me there. Following the clan leader and the village head, we walked to the empty house at the east end of the village. We found that it was a small thatched house that had been abandoned for a long time. The front and back of the house were all overgrown with grass. There was only a small wooden bed in the house that was about to rot. It was more like a piece of wood than a bed. It was just placed on a few piles of stones to make it look like a bed.
The village head shook his head and sighed. The clan leader didn't say anything either. The two of them turned around and left. I wanted to say something but didn't know how to say it. Soon I saw them disappear into the night that was about to get dark.
I rolled up my sleeves and greeted Dabao and Erbao:
"Come on, let's pull up the grass and clean it up, otherwise we won't be able to see when it gets dark." He picked up a small bamboo stick and pulled it left and right in the grass to avoid touching any poisonous insects or snakes. It would be safer to scare away small animals.
Although Dabao and Erbao are small, they are poor children and they came to help me immediately after seeing me working. After a while, I heard sobbing and turned around to see that it was Xiaobao crying and Dabao looked very sad. What happened?
"What's wrong? Stop crying." When Xiaobao heard me speak, he threw himself into my arms. "Mom, what are we going to eat tomorrow? We don't have any food. Will we starve to death if we have nothing to eat?"
Dabao also turned his head to look at me. I smiled and hugged the two children. "Don't worry, you won't starve with your mother here."
Dabao raised his head and nodded vigorously: "Yes, I can also collect firewood, and I can also go to the mountains to find food. We will definitely not starve to death. At worst, I can sell myself to support my mother and brother."
How can there be such a cute child? I rubbed Dabao's head.
"Dabao, I won't sell you, and I won't let you two sell yourselves. We will be a good family and get better and better. Think about it, when your grandpa and grandma were living there, weren't we the ones who did all the housework? We are so capable, how could we possibly starve to death?"
After calming down the two little brats, I cleaned the wooden planks in the house, spread a layer of hay on top and put the quilt on top. I felt like I was about to collapse from exhaustion. It wasn't easy, just like surviving on a desert island now.
Looking around, he was worried about not having a pot to cook at home, when he heard the voice of the clan leader outside the house: "Is Dalang home here? I brought you a small pot, use it for the time being. It's just a little bit of work, so use it!"
I ran out quickly. This was really a timely help. With this pot, I could solve the most difficult problem in front of me.
"Thank you so much, Grandpa Clan Leader. It's not small anymore. It's enough. It's big enough for us to use temporarily." As soon as I finished speaking, Grandma Wang's voice came over again:
"Dalang's family, I brought you some vegetables, please eat them first." After saying that, he put a few handfuls of vegetables and some potatoes on the ground and left.
"Okay, thank you, grandma. Take care."
"Thank you, I'm leaving now."
After Granny Wang walked away, the clan leader mysteriously stuffed a paper bag into my hand and turned away. I opened it and saw that it was a pinch of salt, which was very expensive in ancient times. I will remember this kindness.
I had a wound on my head and hadn't eaten anything until now. I had reached my limit. I pulled Dabao and Xiaobao over, closed the door which was still intact, fell headfirst on the bed, and fell into a deep sleep.
