In addition to external factors, the rise and fall of a dynasty is also caused by internal problems.
Listening to Mei Youqian speaking out his original memory, Mei Pei secretly felt that he had "run out of energy" for Dachengzhen.
"No wonder...the author writes that it will be like that in the later period..."
"What kind?"
Seeing Mei Liang holding a bowl of water and talking to herself in a daze, the couple got closer and immediately became energetic.
Wearing books, doesn’t that compare to predicting the future?
"Well... the world will be in chaos later on, and there will be a war."
After finishing speaking, Mei Bei looked up at her parents and said, "So I have always insisted that our house should be repaired, and we don't need to spend money to knock it down and build a brick house. The earth house is quite good, but building it is a waste... …”
"Oh my God, this information..."
This information was really exciting for Mei Youqian and his wife.
"You kid, didn't you tell me such an important thing earlier?"
Now Mei Youqian and his wife were also anxious, as if everything was going to be chaotic tomorrow, and even their breathing became a little faster.
Mei Bei was also very innocent. The family had only been together for less than three days, and their lives were extremely "fulfilling" every day. Sometimes she really couldn't remember them.
"How long until the war is over?"
"I don't know..." Mayberry shook her head. She really didn't finish reading the rest of it. "But I think we should focus on the natural disasters before the war."
"When will there be a natural disaster?"
"I don't know, but the latest major disaster will be next year's flood." After Meiberry said, after hearing that they still had a year to prepare, the couple didn't know whether to say that this world is long or short.
"We really have no way of knowing what happens next?"
Mei Youqian still wanted to know more details.
If there is a flood next year, will there be a war after the flood?
What level of flood is that?
"The system said that you can read the full text for 5,000 taels."
"Why doesn't it grab it?!"
When they heard that the system asked for 5,000 taels, the couple showed the same shocked expression as when Mayberry first learned the news.
"Oh my god, this is such a shitty day!"
Mei Youqian was still there when he was cleaning up the vegetable patch in the back. He felt that being a farmer would not be too satisfying, but he turned around and his daughter gave him such a critical blow_(：3 ∠)_
Mayberry couldn't help but shake her head when she said it herself.
Although she has never experienced this, she has watched some historical TV series.
In the era of war and chaos, the people at the bottom were displaced and drifted like rootless duckweeds.
I would rather be a peace dog than a person in troubled times.
If there were no check-in tasks, according to Mei Berry, their family would have made crazy money in the early stage, then stocked up on materials and found a Feng Shui treasure land to stay there for a few years and wait for the limelight to pass before coming out.
Unfortunately, their family is now living in poverty.
If you want to survive, just having money and supplies is still not enough.
They also need to be protected by the heroine's halo.
They are going to be important characters in this novel!
“First of all, eat well, drink well and exercise well;
Secondly, build a good relationship with the heroine’s family, take advantage of the highlight scenes, and check in the main plot if you can, and if not, create it yourself;
Also, stock up on supplies and save money. "
Mayberry raised her finger as she spoke, looked at the serious faces of her parents, and said word by word, "This is our family's first one-year plan."
After the plan was finalized, the family of three started their busy day non-stop.
Mei Youqian has been thinking about the house since he came back from town yesterday. Now combined with his daughter's words, they went directly to Mei Sanma.
"Second brother, if you want to repair the house, of course I will help. The wages... are all from my family, so I won't use them."
As soon as Mei Sanma heard that Mei Youqian came to discuss repairing the house with him, he immediately agreed, but he had objections when Mei Youqian said that he should pay for the work.
"Thanks to my second brother for helping me these days, I don't have much ability to repay you. I only have this little strength. If you need me, second brother, just say hello."
"How can it be done?"
"It's just an adobe house. Second brother really doesn't need it... Sanya still needs to see a doctor. If you can save money, save money. Even if you don't take medicine now, it still costs money to take care of her carefully..."
Sure enough, Mei Laosan heard what his family said in Jishi Hall yesterday, but he was surprised that Mei Sanma had no intention of saying anything more about it.
"Well, of course. But... if you don't accept the payment, we will cover the food and repairs during this period. You can take your wife and children back to my house for dinner today at noon!"
"no, I'm fine!"
"Oh, just use it if I tell you to!"
"No, second brother, you didn't spend the money like this..." I don't know how much money Mei Youqian has in his hands, but they spent a lot on their own home just yesterday, and they have to repair the house later, so they can save money if they can!
"Okay, okay, didn't you say you would help me repair the house? Come on, come to my house and take a look at the house. Help me figure out what to prepare. When the time comes, find someone to repair the house quickly."
Seeing Mei Sanma looking more confused than himself, Mei Youqian took his arm and walked home, directly interrupting his confusion.
Along the way, he kept saying, "Your sister-in-law is a very good cook. She couldn't even do it when we lived together in the past. Now I'll let you open your eyes!"
***
Mei Bei is digging bamboo shoots with her mother in the bamboo forest behind the house. The bamboo shoots in this bamboo forest are fat, tender and thick, and the number is quite impressive.
The key is that this thing is still in season. There are so many bamboo shoots that look the same every day. In a few days, they may be too old to be eaten.
So many bamboo shoots are just vegetables. Regarding the situation that Mei Li mentioned in a year's time, Wei Meimei dug the bamboo shoots harder and harder.
The fresh bamboo shoots can be stewed in soups and stir-fried. If there are too many to eat, they can be preserved as sour bamboo shoots or dried bamboo shoots, which will last longer.
Especially dried bamboo shoots and steamed bacon, thoughts came to mind. Wei Meili had already decided what she was going to do this winter.
Make bacon!
"Bamboo shoots like this are only as thick as a baby's arm. It's most delicious to dig them out and peel them directly to make spring bamboo shoots braised in oil. However, you can't eat too much of some waste oil, and the soy sauce you buy here is not as good as that of later generations. You can make it directly. I think it's a bit wasted.
How about cutting it into shreds and making soup? It's light and delicious, and didn't mom buy a lot of duck eggs on the street yesterday? Take two and put them in the bamboo shoot soup at noon! "
"Everything is fine, mom, everything you cook is delicious!"
Meiberry squatted there and listened to what her mother said about lunch, and her movements of breaking off the bamboo shoots were also biased towards the tender bamboo shoots.
Fat Tiger, who was stuck to Meiberry on the side, had no idea where the interest came from. He gnawed and scratched the bamboo shoots, and finally gave Meiberry an incomplete bamboo shoot in his mouth.
"Meow~"
For some reason, Mei Berry suddenly felt that Fat Tiger wanted her to have a taste.
It was just that Mei Berry didn't move the bamboo shoot, but Fat Hu, who realized Mei Berry's hesitation, stared at her more and more unkindly.
Fat Tiger: Shovelling, what's the matter with you? Bite you!
"Okay~ I'll eat..."
After being stared at by Fat Tiger, Mei Berry finally reached out silently and folded off the lower half of the bamboo shoot, which was still intact, and tried to put it in his mouth and chew it.
Mayberry's eyes lit up in the next second.
A stream of sweet juice with the fragrance of bamboo instantly penetrated the throat.
"I'll go, so tender..."
Although it is not as sweet as sugar cane, the tender bamboo shoots are so sweet and crunchy that they can be swallowed directly. Mei Berry feels that she can eat more!
Fat Tiger looked at Meiberry's movements and expressions, and swung his furry tail back and forth happily. After meowing twice, he ran to another place to continue breaking bamboo shoots and feeding Meiberry.
Looking at the other party's actions, Mei Berry felt as if she was being possessed by a cat.
Meiberry, who was disgusted with it yesterday, couldn't help but say in her heart, "It smells so good!"
"Oh, by the way~ There are also those shepherd's purses that your dad cleared out in the morning. The pork I bought yesterday was just perfect for making dumplings!"
"Huh? Mom, is it too much to do so much at once?"
Listening to her mother still talking about what to eat for lunch, Mei Mei subconsciously felt that her mother had done too much.
Their family had pork rib soup last night, and this morning Wei Meili also used the remaining pork rib soup to make a pot of hand-made noodles. To be honest, Mei Bei is not hungry yet, and she can't imagine having lunch later. Eat so much.
"What's more? Your dad's appetite is like a rice bucket. How can he just make soup and cook rice? I drank so much soup yesterday and ate most of the noodles in the morning. Your dad will eat it once he starts working. Do any less and he’ll howl.”
After Wei Meimei finished speaking, Mei Mei saw that Fat Tiger not far away had stopped breaking off the bamboo shoots and let out a soft meow behind her.
This behavior made Mayberry vaguely have bad thoughts in her heart.
When he turned around, Mei Bei saw his father standing behind the house, and his third uncle Mei Sanma was also standing there.
The expression on her father's face at this moment was very wonderful.
Just now, he was bragging in front of Mei Sanma that his wife could cook, how good she was, and what a nice person she was. However, when she came with someone, she heard his wife come up and call him "fuck you".
Not to mention what her father was thinking at the moment, her third uncle Mei Bei almost died of laughter just looking at that "professional silly smile".
Mei Sanma:......
What the hell, I seem to have heard something "terrible".
