Escape from the desert

Jiang Yan followed the voice to see that it was a thin, disembodied little bean. She really didn't understand that this bowl of something that looked like poison to her could actually make the little guy so greedy.

She took a bite.

The taste is very bitter, almost no salt, not to mention other condiments, and this coarse grain flour is not rice noodles, and it is a bit scratchy to drink.

But when she tilted her head, she saw several eldest sons and daughters-in-law staring at her and swallowing.

What she finds hard to swallow is the main food for their survival...

Really unable to eat, Jiang Yan put the bowl back on the table.

This action of hers made Wang Jinhua tremble all over, and Xiaodouzi who was sitting beside her was shivering with fright.

Jiang Yan was a little embarrassed.

She didn't do anything, and her daughter-in-law and little grandson were frightened like this. This original body is indeed the best.

She got up from the low stool and said in a low voice, "You guys can eat, I'm not hungry yet, go for a walk."

Then he turned and left the house.

Wang Jinhua's face was full of panic, and her speech was trembling: "Dadong, mother...isn't mother..."

"It's okay, mother let us eat, let's eat first."

Lin Dong handed a bowl to Xiaodouzi, comforting his wife and children, and Lin Nan also handed a bowl to Liu Xiaomeng, and a few people started to eat.

Jiang Yan walked to the fenced yard outside and stood at the door, just in time to see the scenery of the entire Linjia Village, behind the rolling mountain peaks, dozens of miles of fields scattered to the left and right, and a big meandering river under the high mountain on the left, it's a pity The past two years have always been dry, with less rain and more drought, and the river has dried up, revealing a cracked riverbed.

In the past few years, there were continuous wars and chaos, and the common people were struggling to live. The war was finally over. Today, there is another severe drought, which is getting worse every year. The life of the common people is getting harder and harder every day.

Many people in the village are running out of food, and there are many people like their own who dig wild vegetables every day.

If there is no more rain, I am afraid that the grains of food will not be harvested this year. At that time, I am afraid that all the villagers in the nearby villages will become refugees with no fixed place to live...

Jiang Yan sighed with a bitter expression on her face.

What kind of sins did she make in her last life, even if she became a mother-in-law and a grandmother, she has traveled through the famine years with frequent natural disasters, and maybe she has to catch up with the trend of refugees fleeing from the famine...

However, since she was able to work hard from a rural village to become a successful female boss, now she can also make a comeback in this barren mountain village!

Jiang Yan didn't think about it any more, packed up her emotions, and prepared to familiarize herself with the environment first.

It was still early. She walked to the well at the entrance of the village and bent over to look inside. What she was more worried about during the drought was whether there was water to eat. Water is the source of human life.

The well is bottomless, and it seems that there is no need to worry about drinking water.

She walked to the paddy field again, and the large blue-yellow fields moved against the wind, the slender leaves were dry and rolled up, and the ears that were pulled out had sporadic grains, but they were all shriveled.

Insufficient water, now is the period of heading, and it is also the period when rice needs water the most. If there is no rain in the past two months, the flower vessel will easily wither, hindering flowering and fertilization.

It will directly affect the inability to pick out the ears. Don't talk about the harvest at that time, I'm afraid it will take a year of work in vain.

Jiang Yan grew up in the countryside. She was very aware of the impact of drought on farmers, but she was helpless and was about to turn around and leave.

Suddenly a mechanical voice came to mind.

【Old iron!Discover the natural wild plantain!】

Jiang Yan froze in place.

Jiang Yan's eyes fell on the ridge not far away, and there were a few plantains growing sparsely. When she was wondering, a transparent panel appeared in her mind.

The big picture on the panel is a plantain, and the name and function are also marked below.

[Natural wild plantain, five cents a pound. 】

Jiang Yan walked over and uprooted the few plantains she saw, and a mechanical sound resounded in her mind again.

【Old iron!Harvest natural wild plantain two and a half, worth two cents, is it for sale? 】

……

Jiang Yan felt inexplicably happy at this old iron with a mechanical voice.

【Old iron!Is it for sale? 】

【Yes! 】

In an instant, the plantain in her hand disappeared, replaced by two copper coins.

Jiang Yan's eyes were full of disbelief, did she get a plug-in?

At this time, the panel in her mind changed, and a multi-page selection appeared, displaying the name "Planar Trading Mall", which was like a mall, and various items appeared for her to buy.

The prices of these commodities are in copper coins, silver and gold, and there is also a point. According to the accumulation of things she bought and sold, she took a look. Two copper coins can only buy one stewed egg or two steamed buns, and the points are temporarily It has not been explained what can be used.

She understood it at once, that is to say, this trading mall is connected to different worlds and is an independent space. She can sell things and buy things. As for the points, she can only wait and see what they are used for.

She immediately clicked to buy two steamed buns, and the two cents in her hand disappeared immediately, but in the next second, the two fat white steamed buns were lying in the pocket, and the position of the points changed from zero to zero. two.

In this way, two copper plates can be exchanged for [-] points.

Jiang Yan was so hungry that she didn't care about the use of research points. After three to five, she ate two steamed buns. She had food in her stomach, and she felt much more energetic.

Thinking of the situation at home, she decided to dig more plantains and see if there were any other medicinal materials or valuable things that could be sold. She wanted to buy too many things.

In addition to being a medicinal herb, plantain can also be regarded as a wild vegetable. Many people in the village dig and eat it, so not many can be found.

The past few years have been drought years, the rain is pitiful, the rivers have dried up and cracked, and cracks have begun to appear in the fields. The trees in the mountains are still lush, but some wild vegetables that can be eaten on the outside of the mountains are estimated. It was almost stabbed by the villagers.

Jiang Yan looked at the sky, it wasn't too early, and she couldn't go deep into the mountains. She planned to go farther and take a look around the mountains. Maybe there were other medicinal herbs that the villagers didn't know, so she could pick up a leak.

After walking a few steps, the second son Lin Nan chased after his new daughter-in-law. Lin Nan was still carrying a half-person-height basket on his back, and he held the only hatchet in the family.

"Mother, where are you going? Xiaomeng and I are going with you."

Lin Nan stared at the newly scarred wound on Jiang Yan's left head with black eyes. He was worried about his mother's body, but he didn't dare to call her home, so he could only follow her.

Jiang Yan frowned, although the original body was not good to several sons, it could even be said to be abusive, but several sons were very filial to him, "Okay, before it gets dark, I want to go to the outside of the mountain to see ."

The two followed behind her obediently, and sometimes they would dig up the wild vegetables they knew, especially the new daughter-in-law, who worked hard to dig the soil, but couldn't be active.

When she walked to the fields outside the mountain, Jiang Yan was already out of breath, but she was suddenly envious when she saw that the two of them were not blushing or panting.

I'm really getting old...hey!
