Chapter 78 Food shortage

The scene was very chaotic at one time, and even staged a martial arts show. The hair of the women was disheveled. Of course, everyone knew it well, and they didn't kill me. It was nothing more than you scratching my neck, I pulled your hair, I bit your arm, and you pinched me thigh.

This kind of thing will happen once every three days, but it is not as large as this time, and Village Chief Ning usually doesn't care about it, but this time it is too big, and he has to come out to preside over the distribution of the rest.

He originally wanted to hide in the crowd and wait for Wang Xiujuan to come out to share. After all, those women seemed to listen to her, and she made a lot of things. If Wang Xiujuan came out to distribute, he would save himself this thought, but he didn't Thinking that Wang Xiujuan had been hiding in the crowd and watching the fun with her little granddaughter in the distance, seeing the noise getting more and more excessive, not only the women in the village were fighting, but the little daughters-in-law seemed eager to join in.It won't work if you don't come forward to stop it.

"Stop it all! Don't make trouble every day, don't you feel comfortable?!" When the officers and soldiers were there, they still worked together. After the officers and soldiers left, these people seemed to have changed their appearance. One by one, they started again, catching on to those trivial things, or they didn't take advantage of it enough, and wanted to take everything to their own homes.

The wives who were getting angry didn't listen to Village Chief Ning's words at all. Village Chief Ning's words only stopped the little daughters-in-law from wanting to do something.

The mothers-in-law were still entangled with each other, Ning Qingxi looked at the amiable Grandma Ding in her impression, now she greeted Grandma Lai's face and neck with fierce hands.

After hearing what the village chief said, Grandma Lai still acted like a normal person, biting Grandma Ding's arm with several missing teeth in her mouth.

Ning Qingxi shrank her neck involuntarily, it was too fierce.

Village head Ning talked for a long time, and all these women took him for nothing. He had no choice but to ask the young daughters-in-law of each family to pull people. The scene was chaotic, and it finally stopped after ten minutes.

After being stopped, the women still stared at each other disliked by you and disliked by me.

Seeing that there was no more quarrel, and after the excitement was over, Wang Xiujuan and the others had rushed home with their pots and knives.

The bowls at home were all ruined, and I didn't know what to eat after returning home.

I have to go back quickly and search first, is there anything that can be used temporarily.After searching for a long time, I didn't find a single extra bowl. They moved it so thoroughly that they took everything that could be used at home.

The chopsticks can be used temporarily to chop off two branches, but what about this bowl?
Ning Qingxi looked melancholy, suddenly a flash of light flashed in his mind, he hurried to the cellar at home, and found a small clay pot in a corner.

Excitedly took it out, walked to Wang Xiujuan, "Grandma, let's use this for dinner at night! After cooking in the pot, we will eat here directly! How about it?" Don't dislike it, this is her father and grandma who love her the most, and their family members are very hygienic!Although I can't afford salt, I still use those branches to crush and brush my teeth, and I usually chew some mint leaves if I can, at least I don't have any oral problems!

The Ning family who ate with them were also forced to change a lot of habits.

Wang Xiujuan's eyes lit up, "This thing is really good! Just cook a pimple soup at night, just cook it in a clay pot, and let your father use wood to sharpen a few spoons." She guessed that the army was dispatched, and the refugees should There are not many left. I can go to the county in a few days and buy some bowls.They can ask a carpenter to make chopsticks, but they don't need to go to the county to buy them.

As soon as Ning Changrong came back from discussing with the village chief, Wang Xiujuan arranged a job. There was a lot of wood in the house. Just stab your mouth.

Ning Changrong chiseled and chiseled for a long time before he came up with three small spoons.The job was more difficult than he had imagined, and it was not easy to smooth the grooves.If he didn't know that every household in the village was busy, he would have gone to Carpenter Sun for help. Now he can only make do with it and make do with it, thinking about going to someone tomorrow.

Ning Changrong was lighting a fire at the side, and Ning Qingxi was also squatting in the kitchen chatting. The group of people had left, and the refugees were gone. Now she felt much more relaxed, and after watching the wonderful drama for a while, she was in a good mood. Her grandma is giggling.

"Mother, I just went to the cellar to have a look. The grain can last for half a year." Originally, the grain he bought was enough for three people to feed for a year. , plus the amount of food eaten in the past few months, the entire cellar was directly empty.

Of course, according to the way the three of them ate three meals a day, they would only be able to eat for half a year. If they followed the way other people in the village ate, they might last for a year or a half.

Wang Xiujuan stirred the pimple soup into the pot, and said, "We have removed so much food, there is probably nothing to eat in the village."

It's no wonder that people in the village have to fight for even a few chicken bones. In fact, the family has no rice to cook, and the grain bought in advance is almost the same these days.In the future, every household will really have to rely on wild vegetables to live, and they don't know if they can last until the autumn harvest.

Ning Changrong's face glowed red under the light of the fire, feeling that the temperature was too high, he moved his stool back a little.

"It's okay, there are no refugees watching now. There are not enough wild vegetables in the village. You can go out of the village to look for them. You won't starve to death."

Wang Xiujuan watched most of the pimples in the pot float up, sprinkled chopped cabbage into the pot, boiled it for a while, took a thick cloth, and carried the clay pot from the small stove to the table beside it, and was Ning Changrong took it and brought it to Wang Xiujuan's room, leaving the kitchen to Fang Chunmei and Li Dafeng.

Wang Xiujuan had told her two sisters-in-law before that they would continue to eat from each family.

As soon as they left, Li Dafeng and Feng Chunmei went into the kitchen to work. It was not easy for them to come in because Ning Changrong was inside.

The three of them sat cross-legged on the kang, and Wang Xiujuan stirred the clay pot with the spoon to cool it down.

Ning Changrong stared at his daughter before dinner, "Girl, don't you have anything to say to Dad?"

Ning Qingxi actually forgot about the firecrackers, looked at her father's eyes for a long time before remembering, and immediately said seriously: "Father, I know, I shouldn't secretly make firecrackers by myself without telling you, but I'm an adult now , I know how to measure, I'm not really a kid."

Ning Changrong was actually worried about his daughter's small arms and legs, and he would hurt himself when he fiddled with gunpowder. Seeing his daughter's serious expression, Ning Changrong smiled lightly: "Father didn't mean to blame you, nor did I You are not allowed to make these hot weapons because you are worried about getting hurt."

After going through this time, Ning Changrong has finally figured it out, and he is no longer restrained in doing things like before.
