The little boy named San Kui had been playing in the yard. Now that someone called him, his eyes lit up. He said happily, "Really? Really? Let's go. I didn't see the one who was born three months ago. We can't miss this. Let's go..."
After saying that, he ran out. Kang Xiaoqiao's eyes lit up when she heard that. If the rain cow gave birth to a calf, wouldn't that mean that it had milk?
Milk was a good thing. She couldn't help but blink her big eyes. At this moment, another fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy ran over. He wiped his sweat and said, "Grandpa Hu, my rain cow gave birth to a calf. My father asked me to invite you to take a look."
After saying that, he glanced at Kang Xiaoqiao a few more times. Then, his face turned slightly red.
When Grandpa Hu heard that, he said happily, "Okay, let's go now..."
After taking two steps, he suddenly remembered that there was a girl beside him, so he turned around and said to Kang Xiaoqiao, "Little girl, I still have something to do. You can go home peacefully. When I have what you want, I'll keep it for you."
"I won't send you off..."
Before he could finish, Kang Xiaoqiao said excitedly, "Doctor Hu, can I go with you to take a look? I haven't seen a bull giving birth to a calf."
When Grandpa Hu and the young man heard this, they could not help but be stunned. Could a little girl go and take a look at this kind of thing?
Before Grandpa Hu could refuse, Kang Xiaoqiao had already left. As she walked, she said, "Doctor Hu, hurry up, hurry up."
This person had already walked past. How could he have the nerve to say anything else?
When Kang Xiaoqiao went over, the courtyard was already surrounded by people on the left, right, and third floors. This cow was not from the San Kui's family, but from the brigade. His grandfather was only in charge of looking after it.
The calf that was born was also public property, so everyone in the village paid close attention to it. However, Kang Xiaoqiao arrived a step late. At this moment, the calf had already given birth. It was constantly trying to stand up, fall down, and stand up again. It was very tenacious.
When Grandpa Hu arrived, everyone took the initiative to give way. Just then, Kang Xiaoqiao saw an acquaintance. Eh, isn't this Uncle Wang who drove her to the town?
Obviously, Uncle Wang also saw Kang Xiaoqiao and could not help but ask in surprise, "Little girl, why are you here?"
Hearing this, Kang Xiaoqiao smiled especially sweetly and said, "Well, I came to Doctor Hu to get some medicine. Uncle Wang, your family lives in this village."
Just as Kang Xiaoqiao was talking to Uncle Wang, San Kui suddenly appeared and pulled Uncle Wang's hand and said, "Grandpa, grandpa, do you know this sister? She even gave me candy to eat."
Hearing this, Uncle Wang slapped San Kui on the head and said, "Then why aren't you thanking her?"
San Kui was a little embarrassed and hid behind Uncle Wang. Meanwhile, Kang Xiaoqiao smiled and said, "San Kui is your grandson? It's really fate. Today, San Kui brought me to find Doctor Hu. That was my thank you gift to him. This little guy is very smart."
Uncle Wang was naturally happy when he saw that someone was praising his grandson. Hence, he smiled and said, "Little girl, since you're here, come in and drink some water."
Kang Xiaoqiao's big eyes blinked when she heard that. She smiled and said, "No need, no need. I brought water. Um, Uncle Wang, can we talk in private?"
Uncle Wang was stunned when he heard that. However, he still followed Kang Xiaoqiao. At this moment, they were not very far from the crowd. However, it was noisy over there, so they could not hear what they were saying. Kang Xiaoqiao then said, "Uncle Wang, this cow gave birth to a calf. It will definitely produce milk. I don't know if it will be enough for the calf to eat?"
Uncle Wang heard this and said with a smile, "My Old Wang's cow is very meticulous. It is full of milk. Little girl, why are you asking about this?"
Kang Xiaoqiao immediately smiled and said, "Full of milk is great. Uncle Wang, my body is weak, so I want to drink milk to supplement my body. Do you think you can sell some to me?"
Uncle Wang's expression changed when he heard this. He quickly shook his head and said in a low voice, "Little girl, you can't say this anymore. My cow belongs to the public, and this milk also belongs to the public. I can't sell it. I can't sell it."
Kang Xiaoqiao was in a bad mood when she heard that. She didn't want his milk for free. How could she not be willing to pay him? If he didn't sell it, where would she go to drink the milk?
Uncle Wang looked at Kang Xiaoqiao's listless expression. At a glance, she was indeed very thin and weak. Although this milk couldn't be sold, he knew that his child was secretly drinking it. Therefore, although the children at home looked dark and thin... They were all strong and sturdy.
They relied on the mountain and the water to survive. The things of the production team were all common, but who didn't have their own selfish motives? The life of this big pot of rice was very difficult. It wasn't easy to improve the food for the family. There was a fixed number of chickens, ducks, and geese. Each family could only raise a few laying hens. If there were more, they wouldn't be allowed to raise them at all.
If you secretly raised them, not only would you be caught and confiscated, you would also have to deduct a centimeter. That was all rations.
Now that he saw the thin and weak little girl, he couldn't help but feel sympathetic. Of course, he didn't know what other thoughts he had. Anyway, his family's Er Kui wasn't young anymore. In two years, he would reach the age of marriage.
Therefore, he said in a low voice, "Miss, I can't sell this milk to you. This matter can not be mentioned again. It will be punished. However, I can ask my San Kui to send you a cup of milk every day."
"However, let's make a deal. This matter can not be known by others. Otherwise, we will all be finished."
Kang Xiaoqiao's eyes lit up when she heard that. There was a chance. Although she gave less, there was still a long way to go. Therefore, she immediately nodded and said, "Uncle Wang, you are such a good person. Don't worry. I won't tell anyone. Thank you very much."
Uncle Wang saw that Kang Xiaoqiao was smiling so happily and was in a good mood. He nodded and said, "Then, daughter, go and look for San Kui. I'm busy now."
Kang Xiaoqiao immediately said, "Yes, yes. Uncle Wang, go and do your work."
She wondered if Uncle Wang would regret it if he knew that Kang Xiaoqiao was married. Of course, these were not Kang Xiaoqiao's considerations. She was happy at the moment.
After Uncle Wang Left, San Kui walked over with a curious look and asked Kang Xiaoqiao, "How do you know my grandfather?"
Hearing this, Kang Xiaoqiao blinked and said, "Guess?"
San Kui pouted and said, "How could I guess? Humph, forget it."
Kang Xiaoqiao ignored him and just stared at the newborn calf and the cow. She would have her rations in the future.
Not long after, the little guy came over and said, "Hey, what's so good about that newborn calf? It can't even stand properly. Our family gave birth to one three months ago. It's now very strong."
Hearing that, Kang Xiaoqiao blinked and said, "Really? Is the milk enough?"
San Kui was stunned by Kang Xiaoqiao's question, and then he immediately blushed and said in a low voice, "Who stole the milk? Don't falsely accuse me."
