I Wore It Back After 60 Years

Chapter 1033 A bowl of malted milk
Li Xingxing wondered, isn't the water town in the south of the Yangtze River a place that has always been rich?

From ancient times to the present, the reputation of the land of fish and rice has been well-known throughout the country. When there is a drought in the Central Plains, there is no shortage of water in the south of the Yangtze River.

Chen Xiangyang understood very well.

Before receiving all kinds of donations and food donations, the reason why major grain-producing provinces experienced food shortages was that their grain was transferred outside to support Beijing, Tianjin and Shanghai, and to protect the normal food supply in Beijing, Tianjin and Shanghai.

The food donated by Xie's family, Li's family, Zhao Haiyun's, Ouyang's family and others can indeed alleviate the difficulties, but it is difficult to cover the whole country.

In other words, hunger has not been completely resolved.

Chen Xiangyang sighed for a long time, and continued to ask Wu Susu: "You are a child driving late at night, are you not afraid of meeting patrolmen? Don't your family worry about you?"

Wu Susu raised her face: "Don't be afraid, my family won't be able to eat anymore."

In exchange for food, no matter how hard it is, it is worth it!

Li Xingxing asked suddenly: "Why didn't I hear you mention your father?"

Wu Susu's head dropped all of a sudden, and her voice was low, "My father is dead! When I was fishing, there was a big storm in the river, and the boat capsized, and several people in the boat died! Some of them were caught, but some were not. After my father died, my uncle's family kicked me, my mother, and my sister out of the house, and didn't let us take anything away. Liyu Village is my mother's family, and my grandparents left an old house after their death. Uncle asked us to live there, but we had to live on our own.”

Really poor people are miserable in their own way.

Li Xingxing felt pity in his heart, and looked at Chen Xiangyang, "Father? What should I do?"

"Tell her to go to the house to have a drink of hot water and have a meal. I will get her some food. I will find someone to take her home. I will go to Liyu Village to investigate. We will allocate some relief food from Shanghai and lend it to them, and we will return it when the harvest is good." Chen Xiangyang said.

It's fine if you don't know, but if you know, you have to deal with the living conditions of the villagers in Liyu Village.

Wu Susu's eyes suddenly burst into an astonishing light, and he said expectantly: "Are you willing to let me exchange elm money for wild vegetables?"

"Yes, come in with us, I'll make something for you to eat." Li Xingxing reached out and took down the bamboo basket on her back, told her to go to the main room with Chen Xiangyang, and went to the kitchen to pour out the elm money inside, and then filled some rice noodles , Said to Cannon and Cannon looking at him: "A little girl came to deliver wild vegetables, and I will exchange some food for her."

The two children understood very well, "Isn't it Cuihuaer?"

"No, the one who came with Cuihuaer is also a poor child." Li Xingxing remembered that the old man said that beans can eliminate the swelling caused by malnutrition, so he put a small bag of red beans, mung beans and soybeans into the bamboo basket.

The Second Pao ran into the house to see what happened.

Chen Xiangyang made a bowl of malted milk for Wu Susu, "Since you came to the door, it means that you are really smart. Living is the most important thing. If you have enough food and drink, I will ask someone to take you home."

"Thank you, thank you!" Wu Susu took the bowl without hesitation.

She took a big sip and was immediately shocked.

"It smells so good! It's so sweet!" Wu Susu has never drank something so delicious, and her father never gave it to their sisters when he was alive. He would take any food at home to honor his parents, and let his wife and daughter drink it. Hungry pale and emaciated.

It's so delicious!

Wu Susu was reluctant to drink in big gulps, but savored in small sips.
