How to survive in poverty: I use a simulator to farm

Chapter 6 The whole family is united

Chapter 6 The whole family is united
The man with half his pants on was named Chen Dagou.Just because the country people thought that a bad name matched a low life, it would be easier to make a living, so they gave him such a name.

His wife has been giving birth to children since she was married to Chenjiazhuang when she was a teenager.She died when she was over 40 years old. She gave birth to sixteen children to her man.

Except for the six baby girls who were drowned by her man's own hands, the rest were all sons with handles.

For out of his ten sons, seven survived to adulthood.

His father was very tough when he spoke in the village, and his back was straight.Even men like Chen Dagou looked very proud when facing the women in the village.

Today I saw Chen Feiyan, a woman, a widow who was about to lose her husband, daring to walk onto the village street early in the morning. He glanced at her from top to bottom with disdain, and said loudly: "No Be a woman!"

When Chen Feiyan saw his face like this, she was so angry that she wanted to scold him.However, Chen Xiaoyi immediately caught her and shook his head at her.And pointing not far away,
Chen Feiyan looked in the direction pointed by his fingertips.

Finding that there were already several disheveled old men standing in those places, all staring at her eagerly, not knowing whether they were looking at her face or figure, Chen Feiyan shuddered subconsciously.

These people have such evil intentions!
She had to listen to Chen Xiaoyi and couldn't stand here and fight with them.

She is now only 1.5 meters tall and weighs about 1.3 kilograms.Chen Xiaoyi is 70 meters tall and weighs over [-] pounds.

They, a pair of weak mother and son, had no chance of winning against these adults.

What's more, the life simulator has already simulated it for her once.The second son of her family was mute and was beaten to death by a large family in the village. The patriarch indiscriminately helped those evil people... If she had a conflict with these men today, she would definitely suffer again.

So, Chen Feiyan lowered her head, shrunk her body, and was led around by Chen Xiaoyi, returning home safely.

As soon as he returned home, Chen Xiaoyi became busy.

After removing the reed grass from his shoulders and back, under Chen Feiyan's demonstration, he cut off the scales of the fish, opened the belly of the fish and dug out the internal organs.

Chen Xiaoyi's mute younger brother, Chen Xiaoer, saw his elder brother doing these jobs for a long time, and he wanted to give it a try.

So, he also started to compare notes with Chen Xiaoyi.

Although he couldn't speak, he could hear clearly.

My mother and eldest brother have been busy these days. They brought back meat for the family. After going out early this morning, they brought fish and grass. He also wanted to help.

Chen Xiaoer is only ten years old, but he is already close to becoming an adult labor force.

In the past few years, he and his eldest brother had been working in the fields with his father.

Although the land at home is only two acres, it is already a very valuable thing in Chenjiazhuang.

One acre of good land can be sold for five taels of silver, and two acres of land can be sold for ten taels.This is a family fortune that only many poor families can earn after decades of hard work!
Chen Xiaoyi understood his second brother's intention and immediately started teaching him enthusiastically.

One wants to teach and the other wants to learn.Soon, the two of them took care of the eight small fish and a few small shrimps and crabs.

Seeing that there was a little delay here, Chen Xiaoyi quickly gestured to Chen Feiyan, indicating that he had to go to the river and carry back all the grass cages and cut grass at home.

Chen Feiyan understood, nodded, and told him to be careful.

Seeing this little child running out of the house, Chen Feiyan felt a little sad.

The children of the poor are in charge early.

It was really not easy for children from poor families in ancient times!
There was no oil at home and no big iron pot for her to use.Chen Feiyan had to cook all the cut fish.Then he put a few large marmot bones that had not been cooked into the earthen pot.

While the fish was slowly simmering over low heat, Chen Feiyan taught Chen Xiaoer and Chen Xiaosan, who were not particularly intelligent, how to make straw sandals together.

Chen Xiaoer is very interested in grass weaving.

He discovered yesterday that if his mother made up whatever she wanted, the family would be able to eat the meat.In his eyes, making hay is equivalent to eating meat later.

Driven by his enthusiasm and interest, Chen Xiaoer quickly got started.After he knitted himself a shoe, he put it on his feet.Finding that it was quite suitable, it was more comfortable and warmer than stepping on the ground directly, and he grinned at Chen Feiyan.

Chen Feiyan stretched out her hand and patted him gently on the shoulder to encourage him.

Chen Xiaoer was very happy when he was praised by his mother for the first time in his life.

So, he began to concentrate on weaving straw sandals.

Just after he finished knitting a pair of good shoes for himself and one for his mother, Chen Xiaoyi, who had been out for a long time, finally came back with a nervous look on his face.

He closed the door as soon as he got home.Through the gaps in the door, he secretly wondered if someone was following him behind him.

He lay on the door and watched for a long time. After finally confirming that no one was following him, he quickly pulled away the more than ten kilograms of reeds that he had carried back on his shoulders.

After finding the two-pound big fish inside, he happily handed it to Chen Feiyan.

"Mom~! Here you go!"

Chen Xiaoyi could speak before he was eight years old. Although he hasn't opened his mouth for several years, he still remembers how to call mother.

I still remember how to say those simple words from my childhood.

When Chen Feiyan saw the big fish in front of her, she patted his shoulder gently, looked at him and said, "Xiao Yi, thank you for your hard work!"

Chen Xiaoyi saw Chen Feiyan's mouth shape clearly and knew that he was caring about him. He shook his head and pointed at the big fish with both hands to urge her.

His past experiences have always told him that only what goes into his mouth is his own.

He had brought back such a big fish and had to stew it quickly.

A family of eight is here, and this fish weighing several kilograms is simply not enough to eat.

After a while, he had to go out and take a look.

There are also a few traps he placed in the forest. He will have a look at them after dinner.

When Chen Xiaoer saw Chen Feiyan actually cutting open and cooking fish, and seeing his elder brother sitting by the stove warming himself, he quickly handed over his pair of straw sandals.Indicated to him to try.

Chen Xiaoyi couldn't resist him, so he wiped the soles of his feet with some hay and stepped on them.

He found that the straw sandals made by his second brother were much better than those made by himself. The soles were thick and strong, and they were not irritating at all when stepping on them. Instead, they were extremely comfortable. He patted his shoulders and said, He felt happy.

Chen Xiaoer was affirmed by his elder brother, and his eyes narrowed when he smiled.

Neither of them likes to be idle, so they took their third, fourth, and fifth brothers to make straw sandals and straw cages.

Chen Feiyan saw that the house was leaking wind from all over, and thought for a while, if she prepared more straw clothes, straw trousers, straw mats, and hung more straw curtains at home, it should be able to provide some wind protection.

So, according to the weaving methods in her memories, she began to teach several children how to make straw curtains bit by bit...

When people are busy, it is easy to lose track of time.

Just when Chen Feiyan had finished weaving two straw curtains, the seriously ill man on the kang suddenly coughed.
