Looking at Jiang He, and then at Feng Qingxue's brother, Guan Cheng opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.
He knew Jiang He was right, but he couldn't bear to part with these children.
Feng Qingxue felt very distressed. These children were like little beasts snuggling together to keep warm. Without one person, there would be a lack of warmth.
Guan Cheng was still kneeling on the ground, holding his head in his hands, and the ruined temple fell into a strange silence.
How quiet is it? You can hear the sound of a needle falling on the ground.
In the end, the sound of Guan Cheng's stomach due to hunger broke the silence.
"Guan Cheng, you must have eaten nothing." Zhang Erya hurriedly handed the half of her leftover to Guan Cheng.
Feng Qingxue hurriedly said: "Er Ya, you keep it for yourself, I still have it here. Guancheng's Wowotou is in the back basket, you can get it yourself, eat first, when you're full, let's talk about the future!"
Guan Cheng let go of his hand, raised his head, and remained motionless.
"You're such a stubborn child!" Feng Qingxue stretched her empty hand into the basket, took out a pocket head and handed it to him, "Eat, eat first, so hungry, how do you take care of your brother?"
"Thank you !" Guan Cheng had eaten a little wild vegetable soup in the past two days, and he was so hungry that he was starving.
If he hadn't been worried about his younger brother, he wouldn't have been able to find his biological mother and stepfather, nor would he have been able to return to the broken temple after being beaten.
After eating half a wowatou, Guan Cheng was full.
The remaining half of the wowotou, he carefully placed in the pocket of the tattered shirt.
Feng Qingxue handed the kettle over, "Drink some water."
"I'm not thirsty." Guan Cheng shook his head, he was already thirsty when he came back, and he was even more thirsty after eating wowatou, but He was afraid of dirtying the kettle himself, so he planned to go to the river to grab two sips of water.
"Take it, drink it!" How could Feng Qingxue not understand his thoughts? Stuck the water bottle into his arms.
Guan Cheng's eyes were red, and he took two sips while holding the kettle.
Feng Qingxue saw that there were several broken bowls in the broken temple, and asked Guan Cheng to brush a bowl with only a small hole, and then came back and poured the water in the kettle, and took out a small half of a white-faced steamed bun from the back basket and shredded it. Soak it thoroughly, and feed it to Guan Yu who has been taking medicine for a while.
A very hungry child, even if he is not awake, his mouth adapts to the needs of his body and swallows.
In fact, eating porridge is the best, but the current situation does not allow it.
Even the blistered white steamed buns were enough to make the people present envied, and couldn't help but smashed their mouths.
They have only heard of white-faced steamed buns.
After a while, Guan Yu ate all the white steamed buns with blisters. He had something in his stomach that relieved his stomach cramps, his brows stretched, and he slept more soundly.
Jiang He patted Guan Cheng's shoulder hard, "Guan Cheng, what are you hesitating about? Don't hesitate any longer."
It could be seen that Feng Qingxue, who even brought out the white flour buns, treats Guan Cheng and Guan Yu well from the bottom of his heart. , In these times, many parents can't do this. Jiang He envied Guan Cheng, but also felt happy for him. He was glad that his good friend could finally have a normal home, instead of wandering outside and living a life inferior to pigs and dogs.
Guan Cheng looked back at him and said in a low voice, "I can't bear you guys, Jiang He. If I leave, you will be the only one left. Erya is a girl after all. Can you take care of the remaining children alone?
" Isn't it just to bring everyone to beg? I can handle it!" Jiang He said nonchalantly.
Chapter 0152 Smoothly bring back 4
"Don't make it so easy, everyone's life is not easy, where are the beggars not being chased by dogs?"
Hearing Guan Cheng's words, Jiang He sneered, "Fart! People can't live anymore, how many families are raising them? Dogs? Even the dog owners have already skinned them and boiled them to fill their stomachs! Aren't we begging for a wink? Are they treated as guests? Don't be kidding! We're welcome."
Speaking of which, Jiang He said solemnly, "Guancheng, don't worry. Winter is hard, isn't it spring now? In spring, the mountains and plains are full of wild grass and wild vegetables, and poplars and willows have sprouted. As long as you have hands and feet, you won't let yourself starve to death."
While Guan Cheng and Jiang He were talking, Feng Qingxue remained silent.
Because she clearly knew that she sympathized with these children, but couldn't bring them all back, there was nowhere to put them back, and she couldn't provide food and clothing for so many people, which was too eye-catching.
Everyone can't eat enough to feed so many people by himself, even a blind person can detect the tricks.
The more you experience, the more you understand the value of food.
Feng Qingxue made up her mind again. After the famine years passed, the food production and supply were relieved, and she must gradually reduce the food supply to her family and friends. If she could take out less refined grain, she would take out less, and she wanted to fill her stomach. , just work hard, and you can always earn back some of the rations, which reduces the consumption of space materials.
Soon, the conversation between Guan Cheng and Jiang He came to an end, Guan Cheng took his younger brother to leave with the wind and the snow, and the broken temple always opened the door to their brothers, and they could come back at any time.
The words were spoken by Jiang He.
Feng Qingxue smiled, the two children in front of her had a lot of hearts.
Jiang He actually said this to her. If life in Guancheng and Guanyu goes well, then it's the best. If you don't get good care, then leave there and go back to the broken temple.
"Don't worry, Jiang He, if I can't support Guancheng and Guanyu, I won't come to pick them up." Staring at Jiang He, a seemingly cold but soft-hearted boy, "I took Guancheng and Guanyu away, no I will forget you kids, and if I have the ability, I will definitely come back to see you."
Jiang He waved his arms in the air a few times, "We are all happy for Guancheng and Guanyu to live a good life for them. Don't you tighten your belt to live? You don't have to worry about us!"
For this sake, enough.
Guan Cheng was carrying Feng Qingxue's back basket, while Feng Qingxue was holding Guan Yu. The two left under everyone's eyes, and after walking for a while, they could still see the large and small children at the gate of the broken temple.
Seeing them turn back, Zhang Erya and the children waved vigorously.
In the evening, I arrived at the Wanglou Brigade. Father Lu and Brother Lu Tianjun had been waiting for a long time. When they saw Guancheng and Guanyu, it was too late to talk about what happened over the years. My father and a few burned two pots of hot water to bathe him and Guanyu.
Guan Cheng washed himself, and Guan Yu was washed by Feng Qingxue. The child woke up on the way, and when he woke up, he hugged Feng Qingxue and didn't let go.
Taking a bath when you have a fever can help to cool down.
The clothes the two brothers were wearing belonged to Lu Tianjun and Lu Tianzhi. They were all washed and clean, but they looked empty.
Father Lu boiled a pot of brown rice porridge and brought it up, "Eat first, then let's eat again."
Chapter 0153 Cave House Placement 1
Guan Cheng was very surprised, the Lu family's life was so good that they could have dinner!
And it's not a rice soup that can see people's shadows, it's thick rice porridge, very thick and thick, with a mouth-watering fragrance.
There was a plate of pickled vegetables and a plate of sliced salted duck eggs on the boxy dining table, the egg yolks almost leaking oil.
Guan Yu's eyes instantly lit up like stars.
He ate something when he was in a coma, and his brother told him when he woke up, but he didn't taste it. Now he saw the fragrant rice porridge and the fragrant salted duck eggs, and his saliva was almost drooling.
Father Lu felt a pain in his heart, and the descendants of the Guan family, who were once proud and well-known in the city, were reduced to this point. To Guan Cheng, he handed him half a salted duck egg, and asked Tian Jun to get him a pancake with mixed grains.
"Acheng, eat, you're welcome when you get home."
"Thank you, Grandpa Lu, I can't finish it!" Guan Cheng pushed back the pancakes, only after Father Lu and Feng Qingxue had their rice bowls, did he pick them up in front of him The hot air from the bowl covered his expression.
Feng Qingxue hurriedly said: "Guan Cheng's younger brothers are both hungry and thin their intestines, so it's enough to drink porridge, and drink porridge to nourish the stomach."
"Yes, I forgot to drink porridge for a few days first to nourish the stomach, then let's eat more. ." Father Lu said and greeted Guan Cheng.
Feng Qingxue first fed Guan Yu a small half bowl of warm porridge, and in a blink of an eye, he saw that Guan Cheng had half a salted duck egg, and drank the porridge in the bowl in small sips. The attitude of cherishing was almost pious. His posture is very standard, and the etiquette is clearly engraved in his bones, and it has not changed at all because of the years of living on the streets.
After eating, Lu Tianjun was going to wash the dishes, and Guan Cheng grabbed the bowls that were stacked together.
"Acheng is really diligent. With you by my side in the future, I don't know how much less housework I can do!" Father Lu sighed lowly, instead of stopping Guan Cheng, he signaled Lu Tianjun to help.
If you stop him, he will have a feeling of being a guest, which is not conducive to getting along in the future.
When the two cousins came back after washing the dishes, Lu Jiang greeted Guan Cheng to sit down in front of him.
"Acheng, I've heard from your Aunt Xue about what happened over there. You haven't lost the character of the Guan family. You value love and righteousness, and you deserve to be the descendants of the Guan family! I'm very proud of you."
Guan Cheng said indifferently: "It's just to survive."
Living with his younger brother is their only hope, it's as simple as that.
Father Lu nodded, "Yes, it's better to live than to die. There is hope in life. When you die, it's over. No matter how big your ambitions were in your lifetime, it's impossible to realize them. Just live in peace, and if you and I have two cousins to eat in one bite, you and your brother will eat in one bite. We don't have the wealth, but with your uncle and Aunt Xue, our chances of survival will be limited. Much bigger than others."
Guan Cheng stood up and bowed solemnly to Father Lu and Feng Qingxue, "Thank you, thank you, Grandpa Lu, and Aunt Xue, you two are so kind, I can't repay them now. When I grow up, I will definitely repay."
"What does the family say about repaying? I took you over not for your repayment when you grow up."
After hearing Feng Qingxue's words, Guan Cheng was still bruised. A smile finally appeared on his face, nodded and said, "Yes, I will never mention it again." He will remember it in his heart, forever, forever.
Chapter 0154 Cave House Placement 2
Next, when he talked about the orphans in the ruined temple, Feng Qingxue's pity was beyond words.
"In this world, a person's ability is very limited. No one can provide food and drink for so many children. Others can't do it, and I can't do it either." She had to ensure her own safety first, and then help some People who need help.
Guan Cheng's eyes darkened, but he understood Feng Qingxue very well.
Many people can't support themselves, not to mention that there are several old and young members of the Lu family, plus their own brothers, it is thankful that they can fill their stomachs in the future. How can they dare to expect more than a dozen children to live a life of food and drink?
Father Lu admired Guan Cheng's importance of love and righteousness. After thinking about it, he suddenly had an idea.
"What's your idea?" Feng Qingxue, Guan Cheng, and Lu Tianjun all asked in unison.
"Isn't there a forest near us? A dozen hills, big and small, are connected together."
"Grandpa Lu, what's wrong with the forest?" Guan Cheng recalled, and he could indeed see a hill to the west of the cowshed. Judging by the eyesight he had cultivated from going out to beg for food, he was about 20 to 30 miles away from the cowshed.
Father Lu smiled and said, "There is an air-raid shelter in that mountain."
"Air-raid shelter?"
"Air-raid shelter?"
"Air-raid shelter?
" With a questioning tone, they stared at Father Lu.
"Yeah, the air raid shelter!" Father Lu let out a slow sigh and continued: "During the war, there were frequent air raids for a while. Our Lu family invested and built the air raid shelter for our own family. There is a way to live with the tenants. Now the living conditions in Wanglou are better than in other places. Every family has their own house, and they are used to living together. Few people are willing to live in isolation, so those air-raid shelters are empty."
A look of joy appeared on Feng Qingxue's face, "Do you mean to let those children move to the bomb shelter? First, it's easy to find food in the mountains, and secondly, since it's close to us, we can usually take care of one or two." Caohu In the south of Xishan, it is about seven or eight miles away.
Father Lu smiled and nodded, that's what he thought.
Since Guan Cheng was reluctant to bear the children who depended on each other, he had to find a way to accommodate them. The bomb shelter was the best place to go. It was not too far away from them and could not affect the life of his family, and he could take care of them nearby.
"Do you know how many people are in the bomb shelter?" Guan Cheng was also very concerned when he heard Feng Qingxue ask.
Father Lu shook his head and said: "There are a lot of people who know, so what? The bomb shelter is now owned by the state, not privately. No one lives in it and it is always empty. Although human nature is very complicated, we don't really put a group of homeless people together. The returnable children will be driven away and will not be allowed to stay in that shelter. When the time comes, I will tell your uncle, and he will speak, and no one will object."
Feng Qingxue nodded, and suddenly asked again: "Is it dangerous to live in the mountains?"
"No, what's the danger? How many trees are there in the surrounding mountains now? They were cut down during the big steelmaking process. In the past two years, the family has been plagued by famine. The family can't get enough to eat, and the mountains have been cut off with layers of skin. Animals have a very strong ability to reproduce. There may be occasional pheasants, wild rabbits, and wild ducks in the deep mountains and old forests, but there are definitely not many. Who wouldn't watch? A Jiang went there not long ago, and finally came back with some skinny prey, there are no large beasts like wild boars."
Chapter 0155 Cave House Placement 3
Hearing what Father Lu said, Feng Qingxue felt relieved.
Guan Cheng jumped up happily, and a smile appeared on Guan Yu's pale red cheeks.
"I'll go back tomorrow and bring Jiang He and the others here!" He stayed in the Guandi Temple, where he lived beyond the reach of his good friends, but living in the Xishan Air Raid Shelter was different. They were close enough to take care of each other.
Father Lu said: "What are you panicking? Tomorrow Tianjun won't be in class, you two will go to the air raid shelter to clean up first, Tianjun knows the location of the air raid shelter, how about you, recognize the way, and then get some hay and dry vines to send inside, paved It's a little thicker, and there is an old mattress at home. I can't sleep on the ground when the children come. It's colder in the mountains than outside, what should I do if it freezes? Uncle Lu is very thoughtful, and the second is probably to get some food for them first, they are all children, they can't just eat wild vegetables." Feng Qingxue thought to herself, looking for an opportunity to ask Chen Ming for help, exchanging refined grain for a few hundred kilograms is a loss of coarse grains.
For her, coarse grains are unpalatable and difficult to swallow, but for those children, they are life-saving things.
Of course, there are coarse grains in the space, but if you can save some, save some.
Although fine grains are delicious, the quantity is not as good as the coarse grains, which can save many people.
Father Lu nodded slightly, "There is a little dried sweet potato in the house, you two have sorted out the air raid shelter, picked up someone to come back and live in directly, and then sent the dried sweet potato to them, not much, half a sack, let them and Wild vegetables are eaten together, there are mountains and water, and whether they can live well in the future depends on their own abilities."
"Uncle has not been at home these few days, and when he and his wife come back, I begged my uncle to set up a household for those children, and when the farming was busy, I would ask the half-aged children to help and earn two work points to make a living." This was the only thing Feng Qingxue could help.
As far as she knows, apart from the strict hukou in urban areas, the countryside is more chaotic and management is looser.
Wang Zhengguo is the team captain and party secretary, and he can help.
"We have good soil quality and high yields of crops here. We can't wait for more people to work during the harvest. Your idea is completely feasible! Of course, you have to ask your uncle to confirm the household registration of Acheng and Ayu in the name of a distant relative. Besides, in normal times, when they are digging wild vegetables, they can pick up hogweed and give it to the brigade to feed the pigs, cattle and livestock. Five catties of grass is one work point. There are many people and great strength, even if the work points earned after the autumn are not enough to fill the stomach or half full. I can survive."
Half a year of melons and vegetables for half a year, I can't eat enough, and I can't starve to death.
"Yes, yes, our Caohu brigade, chopping firewood, mowing grass, herding cattle, digging rivers, etc., as long as you work for the brigade, you can get work points, but the work points are not as good as strong labor." Feng Qingxue continued. , "I live in an air raid shelter for a while, and slowly get accepted by the people in the production team. When the time comes, I will find my uncle to buy a homestead and build a house. We will not lack money, so that it can last for a long time.
" Said: "Enough, enough, this is enough, this is enough!"
For children like them, this is the best way out.
They have to beg, isn't it because they are homeless and have no hukou? Urban residents are given a ration book according to their household registration. Even if they do not have a job, they still have a certain standard of rations. One more resident will add a burden to the country. The countryside relies on work points, the grain output is low, and the villagers do not have enough points. How can they take in them to share their own rations?
Father Lu and Qingxue Feng arranged for them a place to live and a livelihood for them. Such kindness would never be repaid for several lifetimes.
Chapter 0156 Cave House Placement 4
Hearing this news, Jiang He jumped on the spot and patted Guan Cheng on the shoulder happily, not as cold as before.
"Guancheng, we have really touched your light! Heaven's light! We homeless children are all poor working people. As long as they have a registered permanent residence, they are all poor peasants. There is a place that is willing to take us in. It is a production brigade with high grain output, if you have hands and feet, as long as you don't slack off, and if you are bigger, you will definitely be able to support yourself!"
Zhang Erya understood and was stunned for a long time.
The other children, who were not so flexible and young, laughed silly when they saw that they were happy.
Seeing Guancheng a few days later, they felt very happy .
"Don't be too happy. Aunt Xue's uncle is not at home, so I don't know if the household registration will work in the end!" Guan Cheng said, but his face was full of smiles.
Jiang He smiled and said, "Whether it succeeds or not, there is always a glimmer of hope, isn't it?"
Immediately, Jiang He ordered everyone to pack up their belongings and leave the Guandi Temple.
Their household items are very simple, such as dog sticks, broken pots, pots and porcelain bowls.
Leaving in a mighty manner, and arriving in a mighty Xishan.
Some of the air-raid shelters are deep, some are very shallow, some have a deep well, some have toilets, and the walls are covered with moss, but each air-raid shelter has ventilation settings. Here, everyone needs a breath of fresh air.
There are also purpose-built stone chambers in the air-raid shelter, but there are not many of them.
Guan Cheng and Lu Tianjun sorted out the two stone chambers and came out, covered with thick withered grass."Boys live in one room, girls live in one room, and the old mattress is placed under the girls."
As soon as Guan Cheng finished speaking, Feng Qingxue's voice came in from outside, "I have another one here. Zhang old mattress, bring it here for you to use, and when I have time and materials, I will find a way to make a quilt for you and send it over for winter."
"Aunt Xue, you are here!" Guan Cheng welcomed her in and picked her up at the same time. The old mattress and the basket under the mattress.
Feng Qingxue saw that there were quite a few children, with a very relieved smile on her face, and said to Guan Cheng and Jiang Hedao: "I have asked someone to find a way to get you some coarse grains like bean dregs and bean cakes. If you are lucky, you may Get some sweet potato noodles or something, and I'll send them to you when you get them, the quantity may not be large, so don't dislike it."
Jiang He hurriedly said, "I don't dislike it, I don't dislike it, Aunt Xue, I also called you like Guan Cheng, we When we are begging, you are willing to give us a piece of bean dregs cake, they are all good people!"
You can't fill your stomach with whatever you want, just don't starve to death.
In the past two years, they went out begging for food, and they saw many people who ate Guanyin soil after being extremely hungry. In the end, they couldn't poop and suffocated to death.
Feng Qingxue took out a large copper pot with bumps and bumps on the surface from the basket, and said, "I've seen it, there is a well in an air-raid shelter, and there is a stream outside, you can drink it after you boil it. Don't get sick. I'll think of a way in the future, and see if I can ask someone to get you a pot, so it's easy to cook and cook. Home, you have to look like home."
Hearing the last sentence, Guan Cheng and Jiang He, Zhang Erya's nose was sore, and tears welled up in her eyes.
Home, yes, home, this is their home, the home where they depend on each other.
Chapter 0157 Injured Amnesia 1
This big copper pot is the one I bought from the junkyard with money. It is a cylindrical shape that is ignited directly from the bottom without a stove. Specifically, it should be called a tea stove.
She had an iron pot to boil water at home, so she brought the copper pot to the children, as well as the clay pot she used before there was no pot at home.
She brought another machete and gave it to Jiang He for self-defense.
Even if there are few large beasts in the mountains, precautions must be taken in advance, so as not to be in a hurry in the event of a crisis.
Spring is returning to the earth, the weather is getting warmer, but it is still cold in the morning and evening. You can't take off your winter clothes in a hurry, otherwise there will be no such thing as spring covering autumn and freezing, so the wind and snow brought them some old clothes and shoes, some bought from second-hand counters Some of them came in exchange for a little grain in the black market. Except for cotton clothes and shoes, everything else was washed and boiled in boiling water to dry.
The mountain road is rugged and the ground is full of thorns. Walking barefoot is easy to be stabbed and covered in blood.
Feng Qingxue noticed this when she was recognizing the way. She remembered that most of the children in the ruined temple were barefoot, and even those with shoes were all wearing rotten straw sandals, so she prepared in advance.
When the children heard that it was for themselves, they immediately cheered and became indescribably excited.
Seeing the young children put on their clothes and shoes, jumping and jumping in place, Jiang He turned sideways and wiped his eyes. When he turned around again, his eyes were a little red, but his eyes were firmer than ever before.
Before leaving, Feng Qingxue called Jiang He aside again and handed him a patched cloth bag.
"Aunt Xue, this is this?" He started with a heavy hand, and Jiang He suddenly had a guess that even he couldn't believe.
"I brought you some wheat bran mixed with cornmeal from home. It's not much, just about ten pounds. When cooking wild vegetable soup in the future, put water and some wheat bran in the pot, don't just drink water vegetable soup." Feng Qingxue finally Could not bear.
Jiang He was holding the cloth bag and bent his waist deeply.
Thank you, he remembered it all.
After going down the mountain, before Feng Qingxue broke up with Guan Cheng, he took the empty back basket handed by Guan Cheng and carried it behind his back, and said to him, "Go back and tell Uncle Lu, my uncle and grandma are back, and I will ask someone to go to the grass. Hu sent me a message."
"Remember,
Aunt Xue!" Feng Qingxue watched him walk towards the direction of Wanglou Brigade, and then turned back to Caohu.
In the blink of an eye, Wang Jiao has been missing for many days, and Wang Zhengguo and Miao Fengqin have been quietly searching outside.
On the day she took over from Guancheng and Guanyu, she met her aunt before going home, and learned that the three cousins of her uncle's house had also sneaked out, just to find Wang Jiao, but came back with nothing, describing her younger brothers as headless flies , I didn't have it at my grandmother's house, and my aunt didn't pick it up either. Other relatives' houses have been gone, but they haven't been found, and they don't know where to find Wang Jiao.
Aside from Wang Jiao's coveting of Lu Jiang, the soft-hearted and kind-hearted Feng Qingxue didn't want her to have any accident.
If Wang Jiao really has three strengths and two weaknesses, even if the uncle won't say anything, the eldest son will definitely take anger on him. After all, Wang Jiao ran away from home because he wanted to marry Lu Jiang and was unwilling to marry Zhang Yue.
It's not that she thinks badly about people's hearts, but that she understands the complexity of people's hearts too well.
Concerning their own children, every parent is reluctant to blame their own children, and will only spread their anger on others, even if the blame lies with their own children and not others.
Chapter 0158 Injured Amnesia 2
The matter of the children in Guandi Temple came to an end, and Feng Qingxue took her sister into the army of digging wild vegetables and picking up the leaves.
With these children, Feng Qingxue finally felt nervous about food.
She really saw what a locust crossing is.
Wherever the villagers of the Caohu Brigade went, the land was slashed clean, not to mention wild vegetables, there were not even a few weeds left, and they could earn work points if they handed them over, five kilograms of grass per centimeter, and the Wanglou Brigade. the same regulations.
However, the weeds can't be burnt out, and the spring breeze blows again.
The vitality of wild vegetables and weeds is very tenacious. After the ground is clean, new ones will come out for a few days, and soon they will be green again.
Wild vegetables are not delicious, and leaf sprouts are even less delicious.
Feng Qingxue scooped up half a basket of willow buds with the flow, washed them clean, blanched them in boiling water, took them out to dry, briefly mixed them with oil and salt, and served them on the table, Feng Qingyun wrinkled as soon as he took a bite. Face.
"It's so bitter! Sister!" Feng Qingyun wanted to swallow but didn't want to, looking at Feng Qingxue eagerly.
Feng Qingxue took a sip, and it was really bitter and astringent.
I put oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar in my home to taste so good. Others boil it with water and eat it. The degree of bitterness can be imagined.
But she still insisted on swallowing it, and said to Feng Qingyun seriously: "Yunyun, after a few good days, you forgot the pain of not being able to eat? When you were a child, when was the wild vegetable and willow sprout not eaten very sweetly? Sometimes I can't even get enough to eat! Right now I'm at a time when I'm not getting enough food, even if it's me, it's hard to get food like I did in the late autumn and early winter, we have to eat it sparingly ." Liu Ya, who swallowed it, bit her lower lip with her teeth, and looked at her stern sister without crying.
"Sister..." Feng Qingyun's guttural voice was a little choked.
"Yunyun..." Feng Qingxue put her soft hand on top of her head, and her voice was much softer, "Didn't I tell you about Brother Guancheng and Brother Guanyu? Orphans like them begging for food are too much. There are too many. You forgot that we also rely on begging to fill our stomachs after being kicked out of the house? People can't forget the hardships of the past when they have a good life. When you first started digging wild vegetables, you were so good, remind me to dig a lot The wild vegetables are dried and stored, have you forgotten?"
"I didn't forget, sister!" Feng Qingyun swallowed the willow bud in her mouth, and pulled her sister's shirt with her hand without chopsticks, "I'm just with sister. It's been a long time, and I can't swallow. I can eat it, I can eat it!"
She lowered her head and ate the willow buds and drank the sweet potato porridge in the bowl.
Compared with people who have no food, she is very lucky to have a good sister.
Later, Chen Ming and Xu Aiguo took hundreds of kilograms of coarse grains to the air raid shelter in Xishan. Feng Qingxue, who had received the news in advance, brought Feng Qingyun over to let her watch the hundreds of kilograms of coarse grains unloaded, all of which were dried bean dregs. , sweet potato dregs and chopped bean cakes, only half sacks of dried sweet potatoes and half pockets of sweet potato noodles can really be called food.
"My younger brother and sister asked me to get these things, and I knew they were used to save people!" Chen Ming smoked a cigarette. The cigarette was given by Feng Qingxue as a gift for white noodles during the Chinese New Year. Seriously said to Jiang Hedao: "Boy, I picked them out for you from the farm, and it's not delicious, so don't feel that you owe favor."
Chen Ming and Xu Aiguo, who were soldiers, cherished these homeless people more than the average person. Returned orphan.
Chapter 0159 Injured Amnesia 3
Chen Ming said that he didn't owe favor, did he really not owe it?
Jiang He didn't think so.
Without a certain identity and access, there is no way to get these hundreds of catties of life-saving food.
Jiang He didn't say anything, but he kept this kindness in his heart. The warmth he hadn't felt in more than ten years had come so turbulently, so quickly, that he didn't know what to say to describe how he felt. .
Chen Ming and Xu Aiguo are both very busy people, so they didn't stay long after they were delivered.
Feng Qingxue took her sister down the mountain with them, and said to Jiang Hedao who sent them down the mountain: "Go back quickly, don't send them off, you have to handle the affairs of those brothers and sisters yourself as your elder brother!"
"Okay, Aunt Xue, Uncle Chen, Uncle Aiguo, walk slowly!" Jiang He waved his hand and watched them go away before returning.
Walking at the foot of the mountain, Feng Qingxue said to Chen Ming and Xu Aiguo: "Brother Chen, brother Aiguo, thank you this time." Willing to take credit, "The leaders in the farm often get some fodder and ask me for some food for people to eat. The friendship is very good. I said it was for saving people. I don't want anything."
"That's what I said, I have something in my hand, so I have to thank others." Feng Qingxue said.
Chen Ming nodded, "That's what it should be. People come and go, that is, if you move around, the better your relationship will be. You don't have to be ashamed to talk about it when you ask for help. With me, don't worry, it will take a long time, so don't be in a hurry. For a while."
Feng Qingxue pursed her lips and smiled, her dimples looming.
On the way home, Feng Qingyun, who has been silent, asked what is fodder.
In fact, Feng Qingxue didn't know either. She thought about it and said, "Maybe it's food for the pigs to feed the animals. I remember that the country has a mission, and our brigade also has two mission pigs. In order to raise the mission pigs. The fattening is handed over to the state, and in order to ensure that the cattle, horses, mules and other animals have the strength to work, the brigade specially allocated a certain amount of grain, and that grain may be fodder."
These days, the animals are doing better than the people.
She heard the neighbors say this more than once.
As soon as she got home and asked the wind, her explanation to her sister was indeed correct.
Feng Shuan suddenly stopped her when she was about to leave, "The weather is warm, people can't be lazy, they have to go to work when they need to go to work. I plan to divide the work into two groups. It is approved to dig the river and open the canal. It takes a lot of labor to dig the river, but it needs someone to cook, Xiaoxue, I will arrange this work for you, what do you think?"
Compared with the work of weeding in the field, cooking takes more time. It was much easier, and many women were staring at this Qiao Zong.
Feng Qingxue hurriedly said: "I will listen to the arrangement of the uncle."
"Well, we will leave tomorrow, and you will prepare. It is not far away, leave at four in the morning, and come back at night when it is dark." Feng tied his face She showed a smile, if it wasn't for Feng Qingxue's great favor, she wouldn't be able to cook at all.
Digging rivers and opening ditches should be a winter job, but it is very cold in winter. The water and soil are frozen like iron blocks. No matter how much you dig, you can't dig it. Several shovels have been broken, and several branch secretaries of the production team have gathered together. It took a total of half a day, and when the spring was warm, the work was finished before the busy farming season, so I needed to leave early and return late, and I needed to rush to work.

Cooking is not easy at all.
On the first day of work, Feng Qingxue thought this sentence.
The seven or eight production brigades have all come out to work, and they are full of people. Although they only need to feed their own production brigades, and there are two women with them, the workload is still not small.
The Caohu Brigade came from Feng Qingxue, Feng Eryi, and Feng tied his wife.
In addition, Feng Qingxue brought her younger sister.
She originally wanted to send Feng Qingyun to school, but she was too young, so the school did not accept her, and the primary school in Caohu Brigade was disbanded, so if she wanted to go to school, she had to walk to Wanglou Brigade, which had better living conditions.
When the strong laborers are working, they have to dig wild vegetables, pick up leaf buds, wash and clean them, and come back to make vegetable soup for them to eat.
Feng Qingxue noticed the labor scene on the riverbed when digging wild vegetables. Some people's legs and feet were immersed in the water. The soil they dug was put into large wicker baskets, and then some people transported the wicker baskets filled with soil to the dam. , used to build embankments.
The trolley can't be used here, it's all human, carried on the shoulder, carried by a pole, or carried by two people.
When she was a child, she heard from her grandparents that a soil basket could hold six or seven hundred catties of soil, and a larger one could hold a thousand catties. It's all winter, and during this time of the year, there is no busy farming, and many people work on ice water. Many people are exhausted by this, and suffer from long-term illness in their later years.
However, many prime-age laborers are willing to work.
One is to get full work points, which is ten work points a day, and the other is to save the family's rations, because the work is hard work, and the above is not harsh on food, and each person eats two three-sided rice rolls.
Sweet potato noodles, sorghum noodles and black noodles are mixed together, and the steamed rolls are dark and tastes better than the coarse grains that are usually eaten at home. Women who cook eat half of them and hide the other. A lot of strong laborers eat one and keep one, and carry it in their arms and say to take it home, either for the elderly or for their wives and children.
The Wanglou brigadiers also came to work. Seeing Wang Zhengguo, Feng Qingxue hurriedly ran to him, "Uncle, are you back? When I went to Wanglou a few times before, you and my aunt were not at home. I asked my aunt. , Auntie said you went to relatives."
She did not say that Wang Jiao ran away from home, nor did she ask if Wang Jiao was found.
Wang Zhengguo and Miao Fengqin's family were hiding the fact that Wang Jiao ran away from home, of course she wouldn't be in trouble.
"Qingxue? Are you here? Yes, yes, you can't sit and eat, you have to work to earn work points." Seeing his niece, Wang Zhengguo was very happy, "Take your cousin to visit relatives, the road is long, and it's delayed. Time."
Hearing that Wang Jiao had returned, Feng Qingxue's heart was relieved, and a smile appeared on her face.
"Are you okay with my cousin and my cousin? It's tiring to go out to visit relatives."
"Your cousin is all right, but your cousin doesn't have long eyes when she walks, and she fell over and forgot about the last half-year. Erjing. Therefore, your eldest son stays at home to take care of her."
Wang Zhengguo breathed a solid sigh of relief when he said this.
In the past six months, his daughter's tumult has made his head hurt, he has been injured and forgotten something, and he has lost the things he took from the house, but he is not so eccentric, although he is still as self-willed as when he was a child. He lost his temper, but he didn't remember the matter that he wanted to marry Lu Jiang. He passed by the cowshed and despised the Lu family's bad composition, saying that he should not help the Lu family secretly.
