Dressed as a farmer's little blessing, the road to escape the deserted

Mrs. Li hurriedly took her granddaughter out.

Sure enough, Li Laosi came in from outside the courtyard.

His clothes were terribly dirty, his hair was a mess, and his lips were chapped and peeled.

This is much more embarrassing than when I went out before.

Tao Hongying took the luggage distressedly and asked.

"Is it very hard to walk the darts this time? Why are you so tired!"

Fourth Li waved his hand, "Bring me two pots of herbal tea.

I came back quickly! "

Tao Hongying knew something was wrong when she heard this, so she quickly threw her luggage and went to the kitchen.

Jiayin also feels sorry for her father's suffering, but she is even more curious about what's going on in the south.

She didn't clamor for a hug, she nestled on grandma's shoulder, honest and well-behaved.

Li Laosi entered the house, surrounded by everyone, and drank two pots of herbal tea.

Then he said, "Mother, the south is not good.

We traveled a thousand miles this time, and there was no rain in all the prefectures and counties along the way.

I heard that in some places, there hasn't been any rain or snow since the grain harvest last year.

It was cultivated with reluctance in the past, but now there are no seedlings at all. "

Everyone's faces were ugly.

If only the vicinity of Kyoto is dry, it's okay to say.

After all, it is at the feet of the emperor, and the Tianwu Dynasty has a huge territory.

Those state capitals in the south had a bumper harvest, and it was enough to just send some grain over.

But from this point of view, the south is too busy to take care of itself.

It is even more dry than near Kyoto, and it is foreseeable that this year's production will be cut off.

"I heard that it never rained in our house?"

Li Laosi sighed and said the way he had thought of all the way.

"Mom, our family has to buy food quickly.

Our family has just settled down, and we don't have the food base of last year.

Don't be afraid of spending money, but hurry up to stockpile food. "

Li Lao Er nodded and quickly responded.

"Mother gave the money, and we are going to the city to buy food."

Li Laosi was pleasantly surprised, and thought he needed to persuade him a little more.

After all, the family does not have much money, so it is too difficult to spend all of it to buy food.

Fortunately, my wife is sensible.

Mrs. Li touched Jiayin's little hair, took a deep breath, and suppressed the panic in her heart.

"Hurry up and buy food, don't be afraid to spend money.

Buy as much as you can!

Remember to buy them in different places and transport them back quietly after dark. "

"Understood, don't worry, mother."

The younger brother with the strongest strength came back, and Li Laoer and Li Laosan became more confident.

Li Lao Er took a mule cart out of the village, and Li Lao San and Li Lao Si went out from the foot of the mountain behind.

Try to avoid human eyes, otherwise the three brothers will be dispatched, and the villagers will definitely be suspicious.

It wasn't that the Li family planned to eat alone and refused to share the news.

As a result, each family has food in stock, which is almost enough to last until autumn.

Second, it's hard to say about the weather.

What if everyone went to buy food, and then it rained.

Then the kindness of the Li family may become the liver and lungs of a donkey.

Tao Hongying and Zhao Yuru took Jiahuan and Jiaxi Jiaan and went up the mountain together.

Pig ear dish, small root garlic, mother-in-law diced, mountain platycodon.

In short, everything that can be eaten must be taken home.

Pickle to make pickles, or dry and store dried vegetables.

At the critical moment, it can fill the stomach.

Jiayin is not optimistic about such preparations.

Because pickles and dried vegetables need water to eat.

It's extremely dry, and the most lacking thing is water...

But she couldn't persuade, and she couldn't persuade.

I can only pretend to sleep, and then enter the courtyard space to work hard.

The various rapeseeds Mrs. Li asked for earlier came in handy at this time.

In the field, plant wherever there is room.

Especially some side dishes, after a month, they can be eaten no matter what.

Of course, what attracted Jiayin's attention the most was the well in the front yard.

When I returned to my hometown, the village also used electricity to pump water.

But she prefers to press the water well at home and insists on not renovating it.

Now it has become a life-saving straw!

Pour a ladle of water in, quickly press the handle, and soon well water will splash out.

But Jiayin is still young, and after a while she becomes exhausted.

The little lamb that lost its mother at the beginning has now grown into a half-sized lamb.

He ran to bleat, flicked his tail happily, and drank the sweet and cool well water.

Jiayin added some water to the four little pigs, chickens, ducks and geese.

This is a lot of peace of mind.

The small courtyard is her greatest confidence.

Don't seek wealth, but just keep the family fed and clothed.

The whole family thought about it so much that they finally returned to the mule cart when it was dark.

Bags of sorghum rice and millet were unloaded from the cart.

There are fifty catties of white rice and fifty catties of fine noodles in the middle.

This is what Li Laosi subsidizes money to buy for his daughter.

On the road of darts, he hunted several times, and exchanged the leather for some silver.

I originally wanted to buy some gifts for my family, but I really missed my family.

After speaking with Liu Biaotou, he hurried back in advance.

Jiayi is still in the bodyguard team, so he is not afraid of the lack of manpower in the bodyguard team.

The wing room that was temporarily used as a warehouse was half filled in one fell swoop.

The young and old of the Li family stood at the door, looking at the sacks and cloth bags.

No one spoke, but there was less panic in their eyes.

There is food at home, so don't panic.

"Keep your mouths shut and tell no one that our family has food.

Think about the food that was robbed on the way to escape from famine.

People are so hungry that anything can happen! "

Mrs. Li whispered to her family, especially Jia An Jiaxi.

Children have no gatekeepers and are easy to show off to others.

Jia Anjia was delighted to see everyone looking at them, so he quickly covered his mouth.

A posture of killing and not saying anything.

This made everyone laugh.

Jiayin wanted to store all the food in the courtyard.

But she is too young to walk around, to fetch food back and forth.

And the family members looked at the warehouse, and if they couldn't find it, they would doubt it...

Within two days, Jiayi finally rushed back.

He took three taels of silver, which was the wages of the escort.

Li Laosi came back early, but Liu Biaotou still gave Erliang.

Because of his young age, Jiayi always takes half of his wages, one or two.

The uncle and nephew are in the Escort Bureau, and everyone knows it now.

Anyone who walks darts wants to take them, because they are really helpful.

There is a hard job on the road, so there is no need to worry about it.

Especially this time, there are bandits who want to rob without opening their eyes.

Li Lao Si was the first to notice and shot an arrow.

He directly shot the hat of the bandit leader across the face, which frightened all the bandits so much that they dared not take a step forward.

The convoy passed smoothly without using a knife or wasting money to buy the road.

For this reason, Biaotou Liu made a special trip.

I brought two boxes of snacks and a piece of meat for Mrs. Li, and bought a pack of sesame candies for Jiayin.

Unavoidably, Tao Hongying cooked food and wine, and ate and drank again.

The days passed and it got hotter and hotter.

The sun scorches the earth like a hot pot.

And everyone is an ant on a hot pan.

The village chief ran to the fields, and lowered his head when he saw the crops and seedlings wilting.

He also got angry and yelled at the villagers.

"Hurry up and water the crops, we can't wait any longer."

Everyone in the village has a bitter face, and carrying water to irrigate the fields is the most tiring job.

Originally, the strong labor force of each family was small, and some of them were born as disabled soldiers, so it was not easy to cultivate.

Now that I have added such a big job, it's really terrible.

If you are lucky, you want to wait a few more days.

But the Li family acted quickly.

The mule cart at home was put on, and all the barrels and tubs were moved out.

The mule cart pulls water, and Mrs. Li and her daughter-in-law are responsible for watering with their children.

Brother Li's second brother brought a family carnival and carried water.
