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

Chapter 9 He needs to get better quickly

After putting everything away and waiting for the fish in the earthen pot to be stewed, Chen Feiyan personally fed the fish to the man lying on the kang.

When Chen Yixuan saw that the earthen pot was filled with fish soup and fish meat, and there were seven or eight small fish hanging by the stove, he looked at his wife with disapproval.

"Daughter-in-law, it's so cold outside, don't ask these little ones to go out again."

Chen Feiyan shook her head. "I know you care about your children, but you have to think, if we don't set traps and catch fish outside for a day, we won't have food for a day."

"Hurry up and eat all this fish meat and fish soup. I have to go out to pick some wild vegetables later!"

When Chen Yixuan heard this, his expression turned to the elder. "Why don't you know how to cherish your body?"

After hearing this, Chen Feiyan rolled her eyes at him.Didn't answer.

Chen Yixuan also knew that his wife was becoming stubborn and that he could not reason with her, so he snatched the big bowl from her hand and ate all the three kilograms of big black fish in just three strokes.

He was worried about his wife doing this.

He was worried that his wife would not be able to survive long after he died.

Once the daughter-in-law dies, the children in the family will definitely be sold and given away by those in the village.The two acres of land he had managed to hold and this small house were all robbed.

At that time, even if he is under the underworld, there will be no descendants to pay homage to him or burn incense for him.

Thinking that once he went to the underworld, he might be bullied by other ghosts, Chen Yixuan just wanted to get better quickly.

Live a few more years.At least let the eldest and second sons stand still!
After marrying them a daughter-in-law and having a grandson, his family will be able to avoid being wiped out by others!
In order to recover from his illness as soon as possible, Chen Yixuan ate at least four or five meals a day starting from this day, and he was full every time.

Soon, his expression changed, and there was no longer the ominous and lifeless look on his face.

……

Even the nine cows couldn't hold back what Chen Feiyan had determined.

She spoke to both Chen Xiaoyi and Chen Xiaoer.He also kept gesturing to the two brothers.

It didn't take long for both brothers to understand what she meant by wanting to get out.

In the past seven days, Chen Xiaoyi has eaten meat every day, every meal has been full, his face has become fleshy, and his height seems to have increased a little.In terms of weight, he is several kilograms heavier than before.

The two arms and legs are much stronger than before.

It hadn't rained a few days ago, and the family couldn't receive rainwater for food. He carried buckets of water home from the river more than a mile away, and he didn't even breathe.

Seeing his mother bringing out some backpacks, Chen Xiaoyi quickly pushed his second brother.Then, the two of them carried the backpack on their backs together.

Chen Feiyan took the sickle and the carefully repaired wooden shovel.He noticed that his third son, who was deaf and mute, stared at him eagerly.She thought for a moment and gave him a gesture.motioning for him to follow.

Her third son understood, so he quickly put on another set of clean and refreshing straw clothes and trousers at home, put on his raincoat, and followed.

……

This time when he went out, Chen Xiaoyi insisted on carrying Chen Feiyan on his back.

Chen Feiyan saw that he was a child and didn't want to agree to this. However, this child insisted on being stubborn with her today.

If she didn't get on his back, he would just sit at home and not move.

Chen Feiyan could see that he was determined to carry her out.

Therefore, Chen Feiyan could only follow his wishes, put on a raincoat, and was carried out by him.

After Niangsan'er entered the heavy rain, she quickly disappeared in the rain curtain.

……

Chen Feiyan always pointed the way.

Knowing that the mute second son could understand, she still consciously chatted with him.Enhance his communication skills.

This mother has communicated a lot with her children who have not yet grown up. It is possible that the child's IQ will improve, right?
Chen Feiyan was not sure, but she had to give it a try.

Thinking of the word "try", Chen Feiyan didn't know why, but suddenly thought of the big thing she decided to do last time.

She gave herself a leg up.

She has to boil water at home every day and soak her feet.Promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis every day.Try to stretch your little feet.However, the cruel reality still gave her a big blow.

Her family is really poor now and they don’t even have basic things like benches, tables and chairs.

The wooden bucket that the whole family used to wash their faces and feet was used as a urine bucket for the sick man on the kang.

As for the other wooden barrel at home, it contains the water that the family needs to drink every day.

This family's bucket of water couldn't possibly let her soak her stinky feet, right?

Now Chen Feiyan could only secretly wash all the foot bindings and make them into a bib for her little daughter.

Chen Feiyan still doesn't understand why people from this strange dynasty, like those decadent people in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, forced their children to bind their feet.

It was wrapped like a pig's trotter. Every time Chen Feiyan took off her shoes and saw it, she felt horrified.

……

The group of four walked in the heavy rain for nearly half an hour. Soon, Chen Feiyan finally found the place where the wild radish was hidden.

She patted her eldest son's shoulder and motioned for him to put her down quickly.

Chen Xiaoyi was also a little tired now.After he put Chen Feiyan on the ground, he found a position, supported the tree trunk, and couldn't stop breathing.

He felt that he was still too short, too weak, and too weak.He will still have to eat more in the future.

Only by eating more can you grow taller and stronger.Only when he grows taller and stronger can he help his parents reduce their burden.

When Chen Feiyan saw that he was tired, she told him to rest more and not keep him busy.

After Chen Feiyan found the position, she squatted down, took a wooden shovel and started shoveling.

Under the curious eyes of his three sons, Chen Feiyan dug out five white roots less than the size of their fists in less than a few minutes.

"This is a wild white radish. Although it is not big, it is edible!"

"We dug them up and brought them all back!"

After hearing that this thing was edible, Chen Xiaoer, who had known how important food was since he was a child, felt like breaking off several branches, handed one to each of his brothers, and started digging.

Soon, he also dug out a small white radish.

When Chen Xiao saw him digging, he squatted over and started digging.

The mother and son worked in the field for more than half an hour, digging two full baskets of radishes.Because the cold wind outside is getting stronger and stronger, the rainstorm is getting stronger and stronger.They decided to go back.

This time, it was Chen Xiaoyi who carried Chen Feiyan home again.

Chen Xiaoer and Chen Xiaosan each carried a basket of radishes.

……

As soon as the four of them got home, they took off their wet raincoats, straw clothes, straw shoes, and trousers, and sat by the stove to warm themselves.

Chen Feiyan added a few pieces of wood to the stove.After more than half an hour, they finally got rid of the coldness on their bodies.

Chen Feiyan took all the radishes that had been washed away by the heavy rain under the eaves into the house.

Then he found a black jar in a corner of the house.

She was going to personally teach Chen Xiaoyi and his brothers how to make pickled radish.

However, Chen Feiyan suddenly stopped when she thought that salt and vinegar were needed to pickle pickled radish.

Forget it, I'd better cut these radishes into strips and roast them by the stove for later use!

After traveling through time in the past few days, Chen Feiyan discovered that the life of the lower class in ancient times was really at a very low level.

I want to eat a pickled radish, but I can’t find any vinegar or salt.

Thinking of salt again, Chen Feiyan decided that tomorrow she would ask the two brothers, Xiao Yi and Er, to bring some grilled fish from home to her parents' house.

Her relatives on her mother's side secretly bought well salt in the mountains. They should be able to exchange for half a can of salt.
