The Peasant Wife Has a Space

Chapter 4: The age of scarcity

Zhao Xiulan noticed her sister.

Zhao Xiuzhu is six years old this year. The children of poor families have long been in charge and are very sensible. Six-year-old children can do anything.

Just like the original owner, the long-term malnutrition caused the whole person to be thin, with yellow hair, black and thin, and protruding eyes, like a monkey.

He was wearing an ill-fitting gown with several patches and holes on it, and it was a little whitish after washing.

Poor, really poor.

In this era, materials are scarce, and the Zhao family is also very poor.

Looking at Zhao Xiuzhu's concerned eyes, Zhao Xiulan twitched the corners of her mouth and said with a smile, "It's okay, Xiuzhu, sister is much better."

After listening to Zhao Xiulan's words, Zhao Xiuzhu breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at the door and window, and after confirming that no one was there, she secretly took out a piece of nesting head from her pocket and stuffed it into Zhao Xiulan's hand.

"Sister, you haven't eaten for a long time. You take this wowtou. It was sent by the captain of the work team today, and I secretly hid it." Zhao Xiuzhu whispered.

In the brigade, they work every day, and they will distribute some food. Some just eat it directly, and some adults are reluctant to eat it, so they will stay and bring it back to the children to eat.

Wowotou is made of some coarse grains, as well as wild vegetable leaves, straw stems, and it tastes a little squeaky.

Even so, in this era of scarcity of food, what can fill the stomach is a good thing.

Some people do not have enough food, and even the bark on the mountain is good. In order to survive, they will go to eat grass, eat bark, and even cook and eat their belts.

Zhao Xiulan knew some of the history of the 1960s, and knew the difficulties of this era. Only when she really came over did she feel the difficulties of this era.

Zhao Xiuzhu was able to keep Wowotou, thinking about giving her something to eat, which made Zhao Xiulan feel warm.

"Xiuzhu, eat by yourself, you're hungry too, you don't need to give it to my sister." With just such a wobble, Zhao Xiuzhu couldn't eat enough by herself.

Looking at her sister who is so thin, Zhao Xiulan wondered how to make her sister gain weight.

There are materials in the space, so I'm not afraid of not eating. Just how to take it out and explain the source is a troublesome thing.

"Sister, you are hungrier than me, and you are sick again. You should eat." Zhao Xiuzhu pushed it to Zhao Xiulan again.

"Sister has something to eat!"

Zhao Xiuzhu stared at Zhao Xiulan with dark eyes, obviously curious.

Zhao Xiulan pretended to put her hand in her pocket, and with a thought, there were two more hard-boiled eggs in her hand, which were still a little warm, and then took it out of her pocket.

"Sister has two eggs. Come, Xiuzhu will eat one, and sister will have one."

Zhao Xiuzhu was startled, then lowered her voice and asked Zhao Xiulan, "Sister, where did you get the eggs?"

In this day and age, people can't even eat, and eggs are undoubtedly an excellent thing. When Zhao Xiuzhu saw it, her eyes lit up.

Zhao Xiulan smiled slightly and made an excuse, "I picked it up from the haystack, I didn't tell Aunt Mei, I secretly cooked it myself. Xiuzhu, let's eat one each, don't tell Aunt Mei!"

Although Zhao Xiuzhu was small, she was very shrewd. She knew that if Ma Yumei found out about this good thing, it would definitely not be in the hands of their sisters.

So he nodded heavily, "Sister, I know, I definitely won't tell Aunt Mei. Great, I haven't eaten eggs before. The eggs at home are either exchanged for food, or they are bought by Aunt Mei. Sister Lijuan ate it, I heard that the eggs are delicious"
