Escape from the desert

But looking at a few people, she couldn't scold them. After all, all of them were born in this body in October, and they were all her own eldest sons...

Even the eldest son, Lin Dong, is just 19 years old. In her world, he has just finished high school, and he is a baby who has not experienced severe beatings in society.

But in this era, it is already the mainstay of the family, and even the three-year-old Xiaodouzi will follow him up the mountain to dig wild vegetables with short legs.

She nodded, got up and went back to the back room.

The rest of the group looked at each other in dismay, and even the youngest Xiaodouzi looked at Jiang Yan's back suspiciously.

In the past, when my mother came back from outside, she would give them all kinds of lessons and insults. Especially today, Lin Nan asked Liu Xiaomeng on his own initiative, and slapped her in the face on the spot, which made her lose face. Shouldn't she have scolded them more, or Beat it?Not saying a word now is even more frightening.

Jiang Yan rummaged in the house for a long time, and finally found 33 copper coins in the original private account under the bed board. She really didn't talk nonsense today, the original body did not have fifty coins, and the whole family had only 33 coins.

Jiang Yan spent [-] cents to buy ten catties of brown rice in the plane store, and another [-] cents to buy five catties of white noodles, and she only had the five cents she earned by herself.

She wanted to buy some coarse grains such as buckwheat or corn, but she still wanted to eat rice, but buying rice directly was a little unreasonable.

She distributed two catties of brown rice, packed it in a cloth bag, and handed it to Jinhua, who had just come out of the kitchen.

"This is... brown rice?"

"Mother, are you...?" Jin Hua looked at Jiang Yan suspiciously.

"Cook it and make a wild vegetable."

"Brown rice? Mother, brown rice from our house?" Lin Dong asked subconsciously, and when he reacted, he hurriedly looked at Jiang Yan, fearing that she would be angry. Mother hates everyone to question her the most.

In recent years, everyone's harvest has not been good. Many places have relied on the government to distribute food. Linjia Village is better. After all, it relies on a big river. However, the river has dried up in the past two years, and many people in the village can't even eat brown rice. .

Even if there is, I will carry it to the town and replace it with soba noodles. One catty of brown rice can be replaced by two catties of soba noodles. Soba noodles taste rough, but I put some when cooking wild vegetables, and the whole family can eat enough.

For them, it's enough to be full, and whether it's good or not is secondary.

Jiang Yan sat on the main seat and said lightly, "This is what I am going to send to your grandfather and grandmother."

As soon as she finished speaking, everyone present felt chills.

They knew that Mother would take all the good things from the family to their grandfather and grandmother, but they didn't expect that even brown rice would be delivered.

It was obvious that there was no food left at home, and the wild vegetables they had eaten for several days were gooey.

They grew up so big, they never had all-you-can-eat rice, but their mother still gave brown rice to others for nothing.

Thinking of this, the faces of several people are even more ashes.

Jiang Yan knew what they were thinking at a glance, but that was the original body's fault, but the original body was also a show. Apart from betting on Lin Wenhan, the big house of the Lin family, she also pressed Jiang Wen at her own family's house, and counted on the two of them. high school.

"Today's events made me completely give up on them." Jiang Yan deliberately sighed sadly, "After your father left, the Liu family only wanted to call off the marriage. I asked your grandfather and grandmother for help several times. They all stood idly by."

"In the past few years, I've been subsidizing myself inside and out. I don't know how much in the past. If I have money in my family, I will subsidize money, and if I have food, I will not even ask them to help me. I have been bullied by others like this. My brains are broken, and even the village chief is here..."

She turned her body, lowered her head slightly, wiped her eyes, and seemed to be crying. With the obvious wound on her head, she looked extremely sad.

The few boys looked at them with surprise, and then their faces were full of distress. Although the mother was not good to them, she was also their mother in the end.

"Mother, since they are not good, don't you always send things over there in the future, okay? We will all be filial to you." Lin Bei said quickly, although he doesn't like his mother very much, but as long as his mother is good in the future , he is filial.

Today, the mother's head was broken, and their brothers were also criticized by the villagers. Anyway, no matter what the people at the old house did to their mother, in the end, their mother would still think about that side, but they were the ones who were picked up. .

Many times, they wondered if they were born to their mother.

Jiang Yan nodded, "Fortunately, the second child doesn't like that daughter of the Liu family, and my mother has seen it through, and Xiaomeng is also a good girl. After the family is well-off, my mother is hosting a wedding banquet for the two of you, and I promise to call that Liu family regret. Go through the intestines."

Lin Nan and Liu Xiaomeng looked at each other and blushed, "Mother is not angry anymore, I will be content, and I will be filial to my mother in the future."

"Me too, thank you...Mother."

Liu Xiaomeng blushed and called her mother, her red and swollen eyes looked very pitiful.

"No! Xiaomeng, I remember your parents arranged a marriage for you when you were young, right?" Jiang Yan suddenly remembered that Liu Xiaomeng's parents had arranged a marriage for her before her death.

When Liu Xiaomeng heard the words, tears flowed again: "The marriage has been cancelled. It's reserved for cousin Liu Xiaoyue. I...I just want to follow Nan..."

At the end, Liu Xiaomeng blushed, Jiang Yan didn't want to eat dog food, and gave up the questioning, anyway, it was done.

It's just from the memory of the original body, it seems that the target of the engagement is a scholar, and I heard that he also took the exam as a scholar!
Thinking that the other party also looked down on Liu Xiaomeng as an orphan, so she chose her cousin Liu Xiaoyue.

Jiang Yan also smiled, "If that's the case, then stay and live a good life, Jinhua, you cook all the brown rice, put some oil and cook the wild vegetables, let's have a good meal."

Wang Jinhua's hand holding the cloth bag trembled, and she asked in surprise, "Is it all cooked?"

Jiang Yan nodded affirmatively. People here normally eat two meals a day, but in the famine years, almost every family has reduced it to one meal a day.

I have already eaten today's meal, and I have to wait until tomorrow to eat. Even if I want to eat it, it is impossible to eat so much brown rice at one time. For this family, it is simply too extravagant.

But no matter how much Jiang Yan is, she can't get enough of the wild vegetables during the day, not to mention the half-sized boys who are growing.

And it was really unpalatable.

Since she is already Jiang Yan from Linjia Village and occupies the original body, it is understandable to take care of these children.

But after all, this era is still very feudal, and she can't change her temper suddenly, she still has to go slowly.

"Just cook as long as you ask. Why do you ask so many questions?" She said deliberately with a stern face.

Wang Jinhua didn't dare to ask any more questions, she carried the rice bag and pulled Xiaodouzi who was hiding behind her to the kitchen.

She ignited the fire that had not been extinguished in the earthen stove, and carefully washed the rice to cook the rice. If the brown rice was replaced with buckwheat flour, the whole family would be able to eat it for at least seven or eight days. It is not a waste to cook the whole meal. Yet?

But to her mother-in-law's stern face, she didn't dare to say anything, she could only speed up her hands and cook the meal quickly.

The aroma of rice permeated the whole house in a short while, the fire of the earth stove was crackling, and the wild vegetables in the pot were also bubbling.

Jiang Yan smelled this smell, and her stomach growled a few more times. She turned her head to look, and several sons tilted their heads and were all trying to smell the fragrance of rice.
