Lin Hu kept processing workpieces in the factory. It was another successful working day. After processing the last workpiece, I went to the grain store in the city and found that there was not much grain. Every family’s ration has not changed. This shows that the country has bought food to support the hardest-hit areas. Closed tomorrow, Sunday. The street was unusually quiet,
I went to Nanluoguxiang Siheyuan and went to He Daqing. He Daqing said that now the grain is rationed every month, and there is no premium grain at the grain station. So they can only eat the quota, which is very difficult for some families. The old lady of the Jia family eats the quota of other people in the family.
The quota of Lao Yan's family is enough for many people, but the salary is small. The quota is to ensure the residents' rations, but it also costs money, and the price is very low. Lao Yan's job is not strenuous, so his salary is only twenty or thirty. The only person in the courtyard who is not under pressure is Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong. Deaf old lady. He Daqing
Other residents are a bit stressed. Lin Hu knew that that little money would be a drop in the bucket for the country, next year and the year after that. Even sadder. Lin Hu didn't want to see such a result again. It was much better than lowering the quota before, but there was still a lot of pressure.
The next day, Lin Hu packed up and set off. He entered the mountains from Huluyu and arrived at Huluyu. He distributed all the remaining money to the villagers. This was the money from selling grain, and each family was worth a thousand yuan. Some had more than two thousand, and I told them the value of money in the city.
I asked my father-in-law to open a small shop, and he bought a lot of household firewood, rice, oil, salt and vinegar jars in the space. Things commonly used in the village,
Lin Hu didn't stay too long. He added three days off on his rest day just to come out and have a look. Searching in the mountains, walking farther and farther. This is a place no one has ever entered, it should be a primeval forest. Where does this lead? Following the increasingly larger ancient trees, the prey here is not so difficult to find. There are many animals drinking water and foraging here by a small river in the mountains.
Lin Hu climbed up a big tree. For two adjacent large tree forks, take out a few wooden boards from the space, ordinary pine boards, and nail them to the two tree branches to make a platform. Take out your gun and start aiming. First, the 88 sniper with a silencer installed on the carnivores began to name the animals. First, he aimed at a few wolves and shot. The wolf he hit just jumped and stopped moving. He continued to shoot, without knowing it, several wolves were shot. After they are all down, the only option available is the bear catching fish, and one shot will hit the right spot. It also rolled twice. After waiting for a while, he took aim at the wild goats and shot a few. The sheep noticed and ran away. Lin Hu did not use his gun to pursue them. It was impossible to clear the forest.
There were only a few deer left by the river, and two of them remained. The rest ran away, and the river became quiet. Lin Hu got off the tree, put everything away, and moved on. After passing through this forest, there are very few green plants here, which is a bit desolate. Maybe it took two days to cross the mountain. Seventy kilometers away, when he was about to walk out of the forest, he saw a skinny old lady under a big tree, holding a two-year-old little girl in her arms. She was languid. It was the child's weak cry that aroused his excitement. Notice.
Walk over, aunt, what's wrong with you, do you need help? "No need." "The child is hungry and can't be here anymore. Something will happen." "Seeing that you are a kind person, can you take this child in? There is not much food at home, so I leave it to my son, daughter-in-law, and two Grandson, I just hope they can survive. I can only bring my granddaughter here cruelly, otherwise she will starve to death." Lin Hu felt complicated at this time. This is the essence of the Chinese people. Lin Hu took out the can of beef from the space, opened it, cut it into small pieces with a knife, and handed it to the little girl, and put it in her mouth. The little girl was able to eat now. She was over two years old. The food in her mouth was very fragrant. She started to eat. , and handed the remaining half of the can to the old man. The old man was also too hungry, so he just ate a small piece. Stop eating. "Auntie, please eat everything. Otherwise, your body won't be able to bear it." "Leave it to your granddaughter. I hope he can persist until the end." "No, I'll take you home later. There will be a solution. Believe in the country and New China." We won’t let the people starve to death. The country is too big, but there are places with greater disasters than ours. Someone will come up with a solution." "Are you telling the truth?" "Really, it's absolutely true. "Okay, okay," the old man said and ate a piece. Some were left, maybe for the grandson. After the little girl finished eating, her condition was much better. Lin Hu picked her up and supported the old lady. We walked two kilometers together to reach the village. When we reached the door of the house, the old lady's steps were heavy. Lin Hu could tell. This was the old lady's own decision. The family didn't know. "When I entered the house, I said I would take my granddaughter out to find something to eat." Yes, I fainted from hunger. I sent you back." "Thank you." The old lady felt at ease now. Entered the courtyard. There were cries all over the house, "What's going on?" The old lady became anxious and entered the house. "Mom, where is the child?" the daughter-in-law asked. "Here he is." Lin Hu carried the child into the house.
"My Niuniu," the daughter-in-law said to her lost and found daughter, hugging her left and kissing her right. This is motherly love. After a while, the village chief came over and said, "The aunt took the child and wanted to find something for the child to eat. Unexpectedly, she couldn't walk back without eating for a long time. I happened to meet him while hunting and was sent back. What's going on in the village now? What's the situation?" Lin Hu asked.
"After counting, every household is running out of snacks. It can last for another week." "Then you have to report the situation as soon as possible. A decision will be made on whether it can be solved." Lin Hu took the village chief to the commune. It’s not much better here. When I entered the commune, I said, “Director Lu, I am the head of Qianjin Village. The most water and porridge we can drink in our village can last us for a week.” Trouble." "The country uses you as director to serve the people. I can think of ways to use you for what?" "Why do you, comrade, talk like this? What do you do?" "Don't call me here. Officially speaking, the people are starving to death now, and I am not asking you to express your determination for the future. You are using the lives of tens of thousands of people to express your determination. I will sue you." Lin Hu told him straightforwardly. "Common people come to report the situation. If you can't handle it, you must report it truthfully so that the superior leaders can know the situation below. If you don't report it, you think there is no disaster here. People are really starving to death here. You are the one who deserves to be shot." Lin Hu was angry. arrive. These are all selected from the villages below. They don't have much education, but they have hot blood. I dare to take on any job, even if it is beyond my ability to take care of myself.
"You can't help but your superiors may have a solution. If it's beyond your ability, don't bear it yourself. You can't afford it. This is the life of tens of thousands of people. When the truth is known, family members who have starved to death will strip you." It's so skinny." "I will report it." Director Lu was covered in cold sweat. Make statistics on the situation in each village and report it to the county. Some relief food was allocated the next day. Each household received dozens of kilograms. Director Lu also smiled now. "Thank you, little comrade," "No, this is also a long-standing tradition. We don't cause trouble for the organization, but it is a matter of scoring points. This is a major matter for the people. If it can be solved, everyone will find a solution. If it cannot be solved, it must be reported to the country truthfully. , We must fully believe in the country. This is New China," Lin Hu returned to the little girl's home with a big bag in his hand. There are over twenty military cans here. This thing can last a long time. And half a bag of cornmeal. "I have to go up the mountain and bring the gun and prey." Lin Hu went up the mountain. After staying in the mountain for a while, he carried the wild boar to the village. He found the village chief, took back a pig leg, and distributed the rest to the villagers. There are only sixty or seventy households in the village, and each family can get two kilograms of meat.
Lin Hu sent the pig legs to the little girl's house. Lin Hu was about to leave in the afternoon, but the little girl was holding his neck and couldn't get down. It was useless for anyone to say, "How about you take the child away?" The mother of the child shed tears. She knew in her heart that this girl was taken care of by her mother-in-law. To seek death.
She didn't want her mother-in-law, it was for the sake of her family's survival, everyone knew it, and no one said anything. The whole family agreed. It's also possible that the last one to survive may be the little girl. This Brother Lin must be in good condition. "Will it cause you trouble, Brother Lin?" "It's nothing if not troublesome. It's just that you are separated from each other. I feel bad. In this way, I found a pen and paper and wrote the address on it. This is my home address. After this disaster is over, I will bring my children back. The village chief will give me a certificate so that I can go back and register my children." Lin. Tiger said. "Okay, Brother Lin is really good. Who would be willing to open his mouth these days?" Everyone testified. This is Qianjin Village, Xiangyang Commune. Sixty miles away from Sijiu City. This is the mountain surrounding Sijiu City. Didn't go very far. Lin Hu took the little girl out of their house. The little guy cried. Just holding his neck. Looking at her mother. And my brother. This little guy is so smart that he is afraid of starving to death again. She still missed her family, and her grandma cried a lot. After all, what two people have experienced. Almost died. "I often bring her back. It's not far away and I have a car." Lin Hu said.
After walking out of the village to a deserted place on the roadside, I released the jeep, opened the door, put the little girl in the passenger seat, and drove by myself, driving very slowly. I was afraid that she would fall down.
Approaching the door of his home, he stopped the car, took out the wild goat from the back of the jeep, hugged the child, and carried the goat. When he got home, his wife and Qin Huairu were both at his home.
I went to school today and haven't finished school yet. I saw him coming back with his child in his arms. "What's going on?" I couldn't help but explain everything. Ye Xinke was so happy that she picked up the little girl and took her measurements to make clothes. Started making clothes with Qin Huairu. After spending an hour on the road, I put it on the little girl. I found the cotton-padded clothes that my children had when they were young. Both families had big ones. Put them together for the little girl before autumn comes.
When the children saw the little girl at home after school, they all came over to hug her for a while. Zi Yan was so happy that she now had a little sister, and she always held hands as if she was afraid of losing her. He Xue is still of the younger generation, but Lin Hu said that the next generation will all belong to the same generation, and Qin Huairu will do his own thing. If you don't listen to Silly Zhu's call, he is of a lower generation than him and is his real disciple.
