Chapter 8 The Sixties 4
Beauty lies in the bones, not the skin.
The original owner had excellent bone structure, a full forehead, a straight nose, curved eyebrows, and small lips. Even though her face was sallow and thin, her cheeks were sunken, her cheekbones were protruding, and her eyes looked even bigger, she was still quite pleasing to the eye.
Although her face was dark and rough, her pores were very delicate, and her skin under her clothes was very white.
Although her teeth were covered with tartar, they were arranged neatly.
Feng Qingxue was very satisfied. She put away the mirror, drank the half bowl of porridge left over from last night, and ate a few red dates and a handful of nuts.
Red dates replenish blood, and nuts replenish nutrition.
The porridge had been kept in the space and was still warm.
After drinking the porridge, the jujube kernels and shells were put into the space. Feng Qingxue washed the clay pot and propped it on the stove on the stone pile.
There was enough firewood, but unfortunately there was no fire.
In her memory, the original owner always went to the neighbor's house to borrow fire. Feng Qingxue sighed, took out a lighter and lit the fire.
A clay pot is not a pot, so it is difficult to heat it. The firewood is not durable, so it took a long time to boil a pot of water.
While boiling the water, Feng Qingxue took out a hot egg from the space.
At that time, the raw egg was put into the space after being cooked, and it was still warm when it was taken out.
Feng Qingxue searched for a long time before finding a broken wooden basin, woke Feng Qingyun up, and poured some hot water for her to wash her hands and face.
During the time of looking for the wooden basin, the hot water had become warm.
Although very poor, Feng Qingxue's original owner also loved cleanliness.
Under the influence of her sister, Feng Qingyun also washed her hands and face as usual, and washed them very carefully.
"Okay, eat after washing your face." Feng Qingxue handed her the hot egg, "Eat one egg a day, and I will find a way to get it back after you finish eating."
"Yes!"
Feng Qingyun ate the egg with warm water in the porcelain bowl, and ate it in small bites with great care, smiling happily.
"Sister, the eggs are delicious." Feng Qingyun was small and had a small appetite. She was full after eating one egg and burped contentedly.
Feng Qingxue touched her head, "Sister will cook eggs for you tomorrow."
Feng Qingyun nodded, then asked, "Sister, have you eaten?"
"I ate before you woke up." Feng Qingxue answered calmly and destroyed the eggshell.
Although Feng Qingyun was smart, she was young after all and believed what Feng Qingxue said.
Of course, Feng Qingxue did eat it.
It was already dawn.
Feng Qingxue looked at the sky, lowered her head and said to Feng Qingyun, "Qingyun, wait for me at home, I'll go out to beg for food."
"Sister, take me with you. Those kind people may give more food when they see how pitiful sister is with me." Feng Qingyun grabbed Feng Qingxue's collar. She didn't want to leave her sister, so she cleverly thought of a good idea.
"No." Feng Qingxue refused.
Are you kidding? If I take her with me, how can I get things out of the space?
Seeing Feng Qingyun's disappointed look, Feng Qingxue hurriedly explained: "Silly sister, you have no pants to wear, bare legs and bare feet, how can I bear to let you follow me through mountains and rivers? Wait for me at home, I will definitely bring back food."
Feng Qingyun shrank his legs and feet into the tattered cotton jacket after hearing this.
This tattered cotton jacket was worn by Feng's father when he was alive. He died in the summer, so he was buried without a cotton jacket.
Otherwise, Feng Qingyun would not even have such a piece of clothing.
Of course, even if he died in winter, this cotton jacket would not be buried with him.
The family was too poor, and the clothes worn by the dead were all good.
