After everyone sorted it out, Du Laoer asked his sons to pack all the things and put them into the mule carriage.
After installing it, put a layer of broken mats on top, and then put the carriages against the wall in the backyard.
The next step is to take care of some of the food you bought.
The daily pickles at home include pickles, two large cans of pickled radishes and one can of pickled beans. Du Laoer asked his sons to come over:
"Take out a small half of the bacon you bought, wash it and chop it into pieces."
The four sons said in unison: "Okay, Dad."
"Yue Niang, fry the eggs in oil, break them into pieces, and then serve them up."
"After the sons cut the bacon into cubes, you fry it in oil. Then cut the three cans of pickles we pickled into cubes and fry them with the eggs."
"After frying, put it in a can and seal it, so you can take it out directly and put it in the pancake to eat."
Li Yueniang also thought her husband's idea was a good one, "Okay, I'll start making it now, and I've soaked it in oil so it can still be stored."
After saying that, he rolled up his sleeves and started doing it.
Du Laoer was lighting the fire, and Du Youling ran up to her father and said softly:
"Dad, I'll watch the fire while you go pack the other things."
Du Laoer held his daughter in his arms and kissed her.
"We, Lingbao, are good, but we don't need you. You are still young. What if you are injured by firewood?"
"Dad, it's okay. I'm three and a half years old and can make a fire. Daya from the house next door has started to help her mother make a fire. I can do it too."
Du Laoer looked at his daughter and wondered how there could be such a caring little cotton-padded jacket in this world, but thinking about her health, he still hesitated.
Du Youling pulled her father's sleeve and shook it and continued to persuade him:
"And dad, go and help mom. Mom was busy all night yesterday and didn't get much rest. You can help mom."
"I'll light the fire. If we do it quickly, mom, dad, and brothers can go to bed early today."
Upon hearing this, Du Laoer felt even warmer in his heart.
He loved his youngest daughter the most, but he also loved his wife and five sons.
Thinking that everyone really hadn't had a good rest in the past two days and was rushing to prepare supplies, Du Laoer agreed to let his youngest daughter light the fire.
Du Laoer put Lingbao on the small bench, and Lingbao sat down obediently.
Du Laoer filled up the firewood first, and then said to Lingbao:
"Ling Bao, just watch the fire. Dad has filled the stove. When you can add more firewood, add more firewood. If you are afraid of burning your hands, tell Dad when it is almost finished. Add to the fire, ah.”
"Okay dad, don't worry, I will add more."
Du Youling has 5 brothers, all of whom are outstanding. She dotes on her youngest sister the most, so she never does any work at home.
The eldest brother Du Xingjian is 16 years old, Kong Wuli is 16 years old, the second brother Du Hongyu is 14 years old, and the third brother Du Yongfeng is 13 years old and has business acumen.
The fourth brother, Du Qing'an, is 11 years older than Pan An. He and the fifth brother are fraternal twins. The fifth brother, Du Zeen, is the best cook in the family and is now working as an apprentice in a restaurant in the town.
But now Du Youling has actually experienced more than a dozen small worlds to do tasks.
The living environment in some small worlds was so harsh that she even traveled to war-torn worlds to do tasks. She was homeless every day, making fires and cooking by herself.
They drank water from ditches, ate wild vegetables, and hunted their own prey to fill their stomachs.
Where can I not add more firewood to make a fire?
It's just that in the eyes of her parents, she is still a baby, she doesn't need to do anything, and her brothers dote on her the most.
The whole family just hopes that Lingbao can grow up carefree and happily.
The bright flames in the kitchen hall shone on Du Youling's fair face, and her dark eyes seemed to be a little moist. It’s just that everyone is busy at the moment and no one sees it.
This time Du Laoer didn't let the family stay up all night again. They were so busy that they went to bed at midnight.
…
The next day it was dark, before the chickens crowed in the village, Du Laoer quietly opened the door of his house alone.
He turned around and covered himself up again, then put on his clothes and went into the darkness silently.
Du Laoer walked towards the east end of the village, walked to a big locust tree, turned around, and arrived at the door of a house.
Built with six large blue brick houses, the best house in the village is the Li Zheng family.
Du Laoer lay in bed and thought a lot yesterday, and finally decided to tell Li Zheng about escaping. It would be best for Li Zheng to take the whole village with him.
Although they and their uncle's family seem to have enough men, they also bring a lot of things, especially those from their uncle's family.
In this case, if you go north and encounter a large number of people fleeing from the whole village on the way, someone who can't get enough of them will rob them. By then, it will really be a disaster.
It was still dark, and even though it was summer, it was still a bit cold. Du Laoer gathered his single clothes and knocked on the door of Li Zheng's house.
I thought I had to wait for a while, but as soon as I finished knocking, I heard movement.
The footsteps of a young man walked toward the door. When he arrived at the door, the young man asked, "Who is it?" The voice sounded to be Li Zheng's eldest son.
"Dali, it's me, Du Laoer."
"Brother Du, come in quickly." Dali pulled Du Laoer in and quickly closed the door.
Du Laoer took a look and found that the lights were on in the main room of Li Zheng's house, and Li Zheng came out wearing a single coat.
"You're the second oldest." Li Zheng looked at the visitor, obviously not surprised.
"Uncle, it's me."
"Come on, come in and sit down."
Du Laoer followed Li Zheng and the others in and found that all three of his sons were there, and even his wives were sitting on the kang in their clothes.
Du Laoer asked: "Uncle Li Zheng, your family is discussing something. Did I come at the right time?"
Li Zheng is fifty-five years old this year, but because he has been in front of Li Zheng since he was young and his family is in good condition, he appears to be particularly tough and energetic:
"You kid, why are you pretending to be confused? Aren't you here to discuss the same thing as us?"
Du Laoer looked up at Li Zheng. The two wise men looked at each other, but they confirmed that they were talking about the same thing.
Du Laoer immediately laughed: "Uncle, is your family ready?"
"Today, let Dali and the others go to the town and the county to bring back two carts of grain. There are also 1,000 kilograms of grain in the cellar. I think it's pretty much the same."
Li Zheng took a puff of dry cigarette and asked: "What about you? Why didn't you come back when you went to the county to buy food? I think you only had a carriage when you came back."
"Uncle, you also know that my family doesn't have much money. When I arrived in the county, my uncle prepared 500 kilograms of grain for me." He knew that wealth should not be revealed, so he did not say it was 1,500 kilograms.
As soon as Li Zheng heard this, he grasped the key point of the words, "Your uncle is leaving with your family."
"right."
"That's good. Your uncle is also a well-known Mr. Li in the county. He must have brought enough food and hired a guard. Your boys are more brave than the other, so you will be safe together."
Du Laoer naturally answered the question: "I came here to ask if Uncle Li Zheng wants to go with us?"
"You want to take our family with you?"
"yes."
Li Zheng glanced at Du Laoer and said nothing for a long time.
(Inform Li Zheng, in the end, the whole village will go together, which will actually be of great benefit to Du Lao'er's family. You will know later~ and it also has something to do with the heroine earning points. I won't spoil the rest. , in short, it will be useful everywhere in the future.)
