Escape the famine with full-level supplies

Chapter 57 The Cellar
The people around had obviously heard Lu Jinnian's words, and there was a lot of discussion for a while, and most of them were questioning.

After all, General Meng Ya had just entered Jincheng, how could the enemy army come over.

Besides, there are still soldiers in the frontier, so how could it be easy to get here.

"Hurry up, get out of here, and if you continue talking, I won't be polite to you!" The soldier looked serious. If this matter really got serious, he must be the one who will be punished.

Lu Jinnian frowned, knowing that they would not believe it easily, but he still had to explain clearly.

"You can find someone to listen to the crust, and you will know if I am talking nonsense."

After speaking, she turned to leave.

She would tell these people about this kind of thing, just because she was on the frontier, which would endanger her own safety.

Seeing that she was about to leave, the soldiers didn't stop her, and even showed disdain on her face.

At this time, a voice came from the gate of the city, "Wait..."

Everyone looked back, wasn't this the General Meng Ya who had just entered the city!
Meng Ya looked at Lu Jinnian, looked him up and down, and said, "Is what you just said true?"

He wanted to go out of the city just now, and he just happened to talk to the two of them, so he listened to him.

The main reason is that the situation in the frontier is not stable. He has doubts in his heart, so he just asks.

Lu Jinnian nodded, and said the same thing, "If you don't believe me, you can ask someone to inquire about it. If you bring the word, you can handle it yourself."

After she finished speaking, she left without looking back. Everything was said, and it was up to him whether he could do it or not.

"General..." The confidant at the side looked at him hesitantly.

Since Meng Ya chose to ask, he must be concerned about this matter.

Meng Ya nodded, "Go and send someone to investigate."

In fact, there are many spies near the frontier, as long as there is a little movement, someone will come to report.

The confidant turned around and left after receiving the order, leaving only Meng Ya looking into the distance.

He looked in the direction Lu Jinnian left, and recognized it just now, the two of them had met in the woods before.

I didn't expect this person to be so talented, but it's a pity that he doesn't want to join the army...

After Lu Jinnian left here, he didn't stay much longer.

Regardless of whether those people took it seriously or not, she had to be prepared.

There is no cellar at home, what if people from the frontier come to slaughter the village one day?
Some things are not as simple as she thought, and she must be fully prepared.

Back home, Lu Jinnian threw the books to Lu Jincheng, and went to work alone in the newly built small warehouse.

This warehouse was originally intended to store idle items in the future, but now it seems that it has other uses.

The ground is hollowed out, and then fixed with beams. The height is only 1.5 meters, which is enough for a short-term refuge.

The excavated soil was not thrown out, and it was placed in the yard mixed with hay, and the fence was directly reinforced with another layer.

In this way, the yard is tidied up and the cellar is also made.

Lu Jinnian saw that the weather was getting hot, and it took him three days to dig the cellar in the past two days, and he was not idle.

Putting on a backpack and tools, he went straight to the river.

There are still a lot of fish in the space, but there is always a day when the food is finished, so she tries to work with her hands as much as possible, and only takes the prey in the space if she can't catch anything.

Many women gathered by the river were washing clothes. When they saw her coming, they gathered together and whispered.

From time to time, he pointed his finger in her direction, as if to say something.

Lu Jinnian pretended not to notice, and rolled up his trouser legs and went down to the river to catch fish.

Of course, she couldn't catch it with bare hands. On the way, she made a simple harpoon with tree branches to catch fish.

The river here is clear and deep, so there are fish.

After a while, she caught several small fish, each about the size of a palm, although not big, but there were enough of them.

Seeing that she had caught a fish, the others also began to grow grass in their hearts, trying to figure out how to catch the fish.

"Come on, I've lived here for so many years, who catches fish a few times?" Some village women were unmoved, thinking they couldn't catch fish.

In the past, men also organized people to catch fish and make fishing nets to catch fish.

But the result is that there are not many, a waste of manpower and material resources, and a family has two fish that are as big as a palm.

After hearing what she said, other people also felt that this was the case, so they didn't say anything more.

Lu Jinnian was very satisfied when he saw that the basket was almost full.

If it wasn't for her mental strength, she wouldn't be able to see so many fish, and she wouldn't be able to catch them so accurately.

Going ashore with a basket on her back, she shouted to the woman doing laundry next to her, "Aunts and sisters-in-law, if you want to exchange fish, you can come to me, you can use food or something."

Anyway, I can't eat it, so I might as well change it.

"So many!"

Everyone saw that there were almost a basket of fish, and they all wondered in their hearts to change some.

Although the fish is small, but this kind of thing also has meat, it must taste better than cabbage and radish.

Lu Jinnian returned home with a basket on his back, and sat in the yard waiting for the woman to come to his door.

Sure enough, it didn't take long before I saw someone coming with something.

One catty of rough noodles is exchanged for two catties of fish. Thick noodles are made from unhulled wheat and can be eaten, but they don’t taste as good as refined noodles.

However, these fish obviously cannot be replaced completely, as they are too small for most people to look down on them at all.

Looking at these fish, Lu Jinnian couldn't help sighing, they were still too small, otherwise they could have replaced some more.

But that's all right, for five catties of rough noodles and two catties of millet, it's a lot.

"Brother, do you have fish for lunch?" Lu Jinqiu ran over to ask when he saw that no one was there.

"Well, does Xiaoqiu like fish?" Lu Jinnian looked at him and asked.

"Of course I like it. I like the braised fish made by my elder brother, but I don't like the fish soup made by my sister!" He said while secretly looking into the room.

He looked very much like a child who did something wrong. He was afraid of being heard by Lu Jinxin, after all, his sister was still the one who cooked at home.

Although Lu Jinnian cooks delicious food, the task of supporting the family is even more important. She can't always focus on cooking.

Seeing his cute appearance, Lu Jinnian smiled and said, "Today I'll make stewed fish in sauce for you, but you also have to eat the rice cooked by my sister. Everyone works hard, you know?"

"En!" Lu Jinqiu nodded seriously, he has grown up and knows what to say and what not to say.

And cooking is to fill the stomach.

At noon, Lu Jinnian made stewed crucian carp with sauce and a pot of vegetable soup. The staple food was Erhe noodles thick steamed buns.

There is enough food in the family, and now every meal is dry.

In addition to occasionally eating porridge in the morning, it is also served with steamed buns.

"Brother, I can cook from now on, you don't have to work." Lu Jinxin looked at the food, a little embarrassed.

I was just focusing on embroidery, and didn't pay attention to the fact that the food was ready.

"It's okay, I don't do it often, but you have to combine work and rest, don't tire your eyes out." Lu Jinnian looked at her and said what was in his heart.

　I've had a cold for several days, and I couldn't hold it back yesterday, and the injections didn't work well, but today I finally got better.
