Ye Yutong asked in surprise: "Mom, didn't we just go to town yesterday? Why are we going again today? Are we going to buy something?"
"There's nothing to buy, I just went to take a look. Your Uncle Yongchang and the others went there late yesterday and didn't buy much food. We plan to buy some more today. Your Aunt Yongchang is going too, and your eldest brother and I will go with us to check the food prices. "
Li Wenxiu didn't tell the truth to her child. After returning from town yesterday, she was in a state of confusion.
She wanted to find out where those refugees came from? Why flee? It would be better to be mentally prepared if you find out more about it.
After hearing this, Ye Yutong immediately entered the space and brought out breakfast, "Mom, brother, take a bite quickly and walk faster on the road later."
Ye Mingzhe looked at the pot of porridge, the big steamed buns and eggs, swallowed his saliva, and immediately picked up the bowl to serve rice to his mother and eldest brother.
Ye Yutong put the peeled salted duck eggs into a big steamed bun, "Mom, brother, eat it quickly!"
Li Wenxiu and Ye Mingxuan were not polite, took the porridge and steamed buns and started eating.
After breakfast, when the two of them went out, Ye Yutong took out a few golden beans and said:
"Mom, why don't you see if there is a cart that sells in town? Let's buy one. Ping An can't move around now, but we can't let him stay bored in the house all the time. There is a cart that can take him out for a spin."
She wanted to remind her mother to buy a cart to use when escaping from famine, but a cart was a big expense, and she was afraid that her mother would disagree, so she never said anything.
It happened that the young husband gave me the money, so it was a good excuse to use him.
Li Wenxiu did not take the golden beans and said with a smile: "Mom has this plan, but I have money here and I don't need the gold now, so you should put it away quickly."
"Okay, mother, brother, please be safe on the road and come back soon!"
Ye Yutong and Ye Mingzhe sent the two to the door, closed the fence door, and went back to the house to eat.
Ye Yutong first filled a bowl of porridge, crushed the salted duck eggs, put them in the porridge, tore some steamed buns and soaked them in, and asked his second brother to deliver them to his little husband.
Li Yunze held the bowl of hodgepodge and said with a smile: "Thank you, second brother, you should hurry up and eat too!"
Ye Mingzhe nodded and went out with a smile. He walked to the door and whispered: "Brother-in-law, there is still more in the pot. When you finish eating, call me and I will fill it for you again."
"Second brother, I lie here every day and don't move. This bowl is enough. You go out to work every day, so you need to eat more."
The two were polite to each other, and then Ye Mingzhe went back to his sister's place for dinner.
Ye Yutong was very amused when he heard the two of them talking politely like adults. He felt that ancient people were so precocious.
Seeing Ye Mingzhe come in, he greeted with a smile: "Second brother, come here for dinner."
"Sister, this porridge is so delicious." Ye Mingzhe praised while drinking.
"If it tastes good, drink more." Ye Yutong handed him the peeled salted duck eggs: "Second brother, do you want to dig wild vegetables after dinner?"
"We have to go. There are fewer and fewer wild vegetables now. They may be gone in two days."
Ye Mingzhe took a sip of porridge and sighed: "Oh, it won't rain today. The water is almost gone and there is no food. How can we live in the future?"
Even though he is young, he knows everything. He is in a hurry every day and looks for food everywhere when he has some free time.
Ye Yutong blinked at him and said meaningfully: "Second brother, don't worry."
Ye Mingzhe knew that his sister could earn some food by working for the gods, but the family couldn't just focus on her sister.
Besides, if one day the gods stop letting my sister do it, then their family must have a way out.
After dinner, he helped his brother-in-law walk around the yard for a while, then took him to the hut, poured a bowl of water and put it next to him, and then went out to dig wild vegetables.
Before leaving, I told my sister not to run around, rest well, and take good care of her body.
Ye Yutong waited for him to go out and then entered the space. She was going to make some steamed buns to eat on the way out.
The steamed buns have no taste, so it's convenient to eat them one bite at a time.
She made a large bowl of noodles first, and while she was waiting for them to wake up, she took out a basket of duck eggs she picked up yesterday and prepared to pickle them into salted eggs.
After the salted duck eggs were marinated and the noodles were proofed, she started steaming the steamed buns again.
During this period, I went to the river to catch a fish, made fish soup for noon, and steamed a pot of rice.
After she traveled through time, she always had two meals, one in the morning and one in the evening.
Aren't you about to escape now? She plans to let her family eat three meals during this period to take good care of their health.
There are small steamed buns steaming on the steamer, a pot of fish soup stewed in the large iron pot, rice steaming in the rice cooker, and cut radish placed in the frame next to it, ready to be stewed in the fish soup.
Ye Yutong went out to take a look first. It was still early and her family hadn't come back yet. She entered the space again, lying on the sofa, eating strawberries and swiping the tablet.
Suddenly, she remembered that there seemed to be a large piece of pork and a large piece of beef in the basement. She had bought them locally when she was on a business trip to Sichuan Province and had left them there uneaten.
How about making those into dried meat? Eating one piece every day during the escape can also replenish energy.
There are also chickens, ducks, geese and sheep on the mountain. I also look for opportunities to kill a few to eat.
Mom came back to discuss with her and let the eldest brother and second brother come in to work in the evening. There are still so many fields here that are not cultivated. It would be a pity to leave them empty. Mom can't do it all by herself.
The wound on her head has not healed yet, and she cannot do heavy work. She feels dizzy even if she moves even a little bit.
Letting the two brothers come in to work will also allow them to eat better and stay healthy here.
After Ye Yutong finished the plate of strawberries, he went to the basement, turned out the beef and pork, marinated them, and made dried meat in the afternoon.
There were many boxes at the door of the basement. They were all snacks she bought at the wholesale market, as well as various daily necessities. There was a pile of miscellaneous things.
After she bought it, she put it here directly, thinking that she would pack it up slowly after returning to the countryside, but before she could return to the countryside, she traveled here.
My mother didn't dare to move when she came in to put things away. She just sorted vegetables, fruits and eggs and put them on the shelves.
Ye Yutong now has short arms and legs, so it is a bit difficult to pack up the pile of things. He plans to let his two brothers come in to put them away at night.
She cut the meat, marinated it, put the steamed buns in the basement, and made space.
As soon as I came out, I heard Ye Mingzhe's angry voice: "Why are you coming to our house? You are not welcome in our house, so leave quickly."
Ye Yutong heard another unhurried voice, it should be Ye Yuqing, with a gentle tone of reproach.
"Brother Mingzhe, why are you so angry? I heard that sister Yutong and brother-in-law were not feeling well, so I brought Mingwei over to have a look.
No matter what, we are all a family. Although my grandfather separated you, the broken bones are still connected.
We are all close relatives whose blood is thicker than water. Brother Mingzhe must not be angry with his grandfather. "
