"Wow."
How many households in the village are without food?
The grass below the center of the mountain is almost gone, which shows how serious the situation is.
Lin Xiangrong said that this was difficult to resolve, as there was no granary in the village to store public grain. Yesterday, the village held a meeting, and the idea was that the people who had food to eat should share some of the food for the people who had no food.
If you don’t even have enough food to eat, you have to save money and wait for the rescue team to come to rescue you. Who would share their own food for others to eat?
It’s not like there’s no family!
Some people immediately denied and refused, saying that their own food was not enough to eat, and it was not certain whether they could survive until the rescue team came. Why should they give away their own things?
The village chief's face turned ugly at that time, while the village party secretary didn't say anything and kept rolling cigarettes into his mouth. The two old men were not too young and had a longer-term perspective.
It will take at least three or four days for the rescue team to arrive, and the families who have no food to eat have been hungry for who knows how long. If they share a bit of food, they might still be able to survive when the rescue team comes, but no one has shared it. Once the food is gone, it is not certain whether the person will survive.
In this day and age, we can't just watch a whole family starve to death in the village, right?
All in all, the room was quiet and no one agreed.
But just when the village chief decided to distribute his own food, Ruan Qing, who went to the village chief's house with Lu Xiao to hold a meeting, raised his hand and suddenly said: "My family has a lot of food, and I can share it and lend it to others who have no food to eat. "
At that time, Lu Xiao's eyes almost dropped to the ground, staring at Ruan Qing in disbelief, wanting to pour the water out of his mother's head.
Their family doesn’t have much food!
The grain he saved was something he stocked up to save his life when he saw that this year's harvest would be poor.
If it weren't for this amount of food, he and Ruan Qing would probably starve to death in less than half a month. How could they survive until now?
Moreover, there is not much food left at home!
"Mom, the total food left in our house is only enough for three days. How can we distribute it?" He quickly stopped: "Village Chief, my family really doesn't have much food left!"
He was extremely anxious, but Ruan Qing said slowly: "Xiao Xiao, when did you become so cold-blooded? The rescue team was coming in a few days. It's okay for us to lend you a little food. Besides, you don't know how to hunt." ?"
Ruan Qing looked proud: "You can go hunting in the mountains."
What this said is that if a ten-year-old child went hunting in the mountains, she would borrow all the food as soon as her upper lip and lower lip touched her. If Lu Xiao hadn't hid the money in advance, he would have followed Ruan a month ago. Clear the written letter and send it by post.
No, there are only three days of food left. What can you borrow from outside?
And if you let your ten-year-old son go hunting alone in the mountains, aren't you afraid of something happening?
Although the village chief hoped that those with more food in the village would lend some, he never asked for it. Upon hearing Ruan Qing's words, he quickly refused: "Sister, you don't have much food, so don't borrow it from outside."
After hearing this, Ruan Qing became unhappy: "Village chief, do you look down on our orphans and widows?"
All she could think about was what Liu Meng said, "We should help each other. The village chief likes kind people. If your family behaves very kindly, maybe your uncle will take you back in advance if he knows about it."
"mom!"
What are you talking about!
If he were the village chief, he would beat someone after hearing this!
The old man knew that the child had a good relationship with his granddaughter, so he helped to reconcile: "Well, village chief, let's count how many families have no food at all. After we count them, let's all join together. How about it?"
Lu Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, nodded gratefully to the old man, and asked Ruan Qing in a low voice: "How can you give away the few food our family has?"
"Is there a problem?" Ruan Qing is a person who has no independent opinions, and often runs away from home because of his brain convulsions. He will be fooled by two or three sentences, and he is also very good at turning his elbows outward: "Mengmeng told me , that’s a good girl.”
In her heart, she always said that her husband was a good man and Liu Meng, who must love her very much, was an incomparably good girl.
"…I knew it."
Lu Xiao cursed lowly and decided to guard the door of his house so that Liu Meng wouldn't be allowed to enter his house.
Lin Xiangrong was silent for a moment after listening to Lu Xiao's complaints: "I thought that Auntie was just a little confused and could easily be distracted from her thoughts, but I didn't expect that she..."
He's quite deceptive, especially his own son.
For Lu Xiao to grow up so big and still protect Ruan Qing, he must care about his blood relationship and his only relative.
Otherwise, another person could at most avenge Ruan Qing, instead of trying to kill Xie Cheng's family for revenge, and finally getting himself involved.
Lu Xiao had a complicated expression: "My mother was not like this before."
Lu Xiao just thought that it was Ruan Qing who was ill and that it was a problem in Ruan Qing's heart. Originally, she would touch his head from time to time and say she was sorry for his son.
But what's more is hysterical and uncharacteristic, the way he will still love that man no matter how he is hurt.
After they arrived at Xingjia Village, Ruan Qing would occasionally wake up, but spend more time being depressed and remembering the past, and even his attitude towards him became worse.
Lu Xiao sometimes sensed Ruan Qing's subtle hatred for him.
He could only pretend that he didn't notice it, because Lu Xiao knew that Ruan Qing hated him beyond words.
"take it easy."
Lin Xiangrong could deduce some problems. Ruan Qing probably had mental and psychological problems. To put it simply, he was constantly wandering on the edge of madness.
The two of them entered the mountain all the way and found a hidden cage. Something kept moving in the cage. When they lifted it up, they saw a small deer "biu" bounced away. It was not big and ran very fast. In the blink of an eye, it was like a deer. Gone.
"There's no need to chase him. You can't catch him if you catch him."
The corner of Lu Xiao's mouth twitched. He never expected that there would be a fawn that seemed to be just born in a cage that was not very big.
"This cage is useless, let's go see the other ones."
Lin Xiangrong shook his head.
She estimated that there wouldn't be too many prey in the cage. It had been raining heavily for more than a month, and all the small prey that could hide were hiding, so how could they still wander around?
After giving Lu Xiao a vaccination in advance, the two went to look through other baskets and cages. Unsurprisingly, there weren't many things.
After packing up the prey, I dug out two more nests of bird eggs on the way back, picked some wild vegetables and mushrooms that sprouted up again before going down the mountain and heading home.
When they first arrived at the door, the sky became gloomy again, and light rain fell on the ground, almost getting Lin Xiangrong wet.
She ran into the house, coughed a few times, and drank a glass of hot water. As soon as she sat down, Zhou Zhaodi hugged her and wiped her head with a towel.
