Cheng Mingyi didn't quite believe it. Natural disasters had occurred in both the north and the south. How could the coastal areas be any better?
The entire south has not been able to escape the bad luck. Although Yanhai is on the seaside, it is not absolutely possible to fill the stomach.

"Why are you so worried about your children? As long as your parents are here, you will not starve to death." Cheng Dazhu spoke in a loud voice, which seemed a bit fierce, but in fact his mood was very stable.

The head of the family spoke, but Cheng Mingyi didn't ask any more questions. She just looked at her parents and nodded.

Cheng Yuanxi pretended to smile casually and said: "I know a friend who is a businessman. He said that there are many seafood, fish and shrimps in the Yanhai area. It can fill your stomach even in disaster years. It is always richer than inland resources."

"Uncle Third, is it true?" Cheng Mingyue raised her head, her eyes bright and excited.

"It's true." Cheng Yuanxi nodded.

Cheng Mingyue cheered happily, "Great, as long as we get to Yanhai, we will have enough to eat."

An eight-year-old child may not be in the right mind, but it's not completely crooked; if it's corrected, it can be corrected.

Mingyi thought of this and silently stared at her.

Her mission is to end the troubled times and prevent the world from destruction; however, natural disasters continue, and the world may be destroyed in the future.So what is the reason for the destruction of the world?Is it God's will or man-made?
Cheng Yuandong and Cheng Yuannan had smiles on their faces.

The old couple Cheng Dazhu and Luo Cuihua are not so optimistic. They have lived for decades and have more life experience and experience than their son and daughter-in-law. They have experienced many things. Without thinking about it, they know that it cannot be that simple.

Since Yanhai is so nice, there must be a lot of people going there; and whether the locals will welcome them is unknown.

It's useless no matter how much they worry, they can only take one step at a time.

After a long rest, the people in the village were about to continue their journey. Cheng Mingyi and others returned in a state of embarrassment.

Cheng Yuanxi stepped forward and looked at him, touching him from top to bottom, "Are you injured?"

"Dad, I'm not hurt. We found something." Cheng Mingli stroked his father's hand away and took out two cassava from his arms. "This thing is edible. We saw wild boars gnawing a lot of it."

Cheng Yuanxi took it in his hand and looked at it. He didn't know what it was and had never seen it before. He raised his head to look at Cheng Mingyi and the other four. Cheng Mingyi took the lead and nodded in affirmation.

"We did see wild boars eating this thing. There were two big wild boars at the time, and we didn't dare to disturb them. We waited until they finished eating and left before we went up to see it. It was also because the thing came back late."

"Then how do you eat this thing?" Cheng Yuanxi was in trouble, "gnaw it raw like a wild boar?"

Cheng Mingyi and the other five men shook their heads.

Cheng Yuanxi took the things and called his nephews and sons to find Cheng Dazhu, "Dad, take a look."

Cheng Dazhu took it and squinted his eyes.

"This thing is edible. I ate it before when I was a businessman outside. I heard it was called cassava. It is available in some mountains, but it is not very delicious. You can just boil it and simmer it in a fire."

"As long as you can eat it, we have consumed a lot of food along the way. We need other things to support it for a while, so we can keep some food." Luo Cuihua took the cassava and asked Cheng Yuanxi, "Where did you find it?"

Cheng Yuanxi pushed his nephew and son out, "They discovered it."

"Is there a lot of cassava?" Luo Cuihua asked seasonedly.

Cheng Mingyi gestured for a long time but didn't know how many there were.Cheng Minglian, Cheng Mingzhi, and Cheng Mingxin couldn't explain clearly. Instead, the youngest Cheng Mingli came forward to explain, "Grandma, it looks like it's as spacious as our house, with vines twining around it. It should have a lot of fruit."

Luo Cuihua and Cheng Dazhu looked at each other, seeing the same emotions in each other's eyes, and nodded affirmatively.

Cheng Dazhu said: "We can't dig the cassava secretly as a family. Yuan Xi will call the village chief and clan chief to discuss it."

"Understood, son, let's go now." Cheng Yuanxi nodded in agreement, turned around and went in the other direction.

Cheng Mingyi and others are older and have been developed the habit of obeying the arrangements of their elders since childhood; at this juncture, no one of them stood up and said anything wrong. They all knew that their grandparents would not harm them.

Cheng Mingyue stood some distance away and heard that cassava was edible, and that Cheng Dazhu called Cheng Yuanxi to call someone to discuss it. She was young and could not think of anything else. She only thought that her grandfather wanted to give cassava to others.

But she didn't dare to speak at all. Her grandfather's majesty at home could not be challenged. She stamped her feet and ran anxiously to find Cheng Yuandong and Li Lianhua.

"Mom and dad, please go and persuade your grandparents. My brothers have found something to eat, but my grandparents want to give it to others. Our family doesn't have enough to eat, so why should we give it to others!"

She has never had a full meal since she fled the famine, and she is hungry every day, but she cannot die from hunger. If she really has a lot to eat, will she still be hungry?
Li Lianhua's expression changed, and she subconsciously looked at Cheng Yuandong's face; she wanted to see what Cheng Yuandong was thinking.

Cheng Yuandong frowned, relaxed his brows quickly, and reprimanded Cheng Mingyue in a deep voice: "What nonsense are you talking about? Which of the elders in the family doesn't love you? Which of your grandparents doesn't love you? Since your grandparents have made the decision, it is necessary If you do this, you don’t even understand this.”

After speaking, he turned to Li Lianhua.

"Teach her a lesson. She is an eight-year-old child. She is not sensible at all. She can't speak like her brain. She makes a fuss when something happens. In other words, if she is so spoiled at home, she will be disliked outside. In a few years, she will It’s time to talk about my husband’s family.”

"I know." Li Lianhua thought of her father-in-law and mother-in-law at home. They are indeed good people. They are good to the children and daughter-in-law.

The two old men would not give up the benefits they had received unless they had to.

Cheng Yuandong glared at his daughter again, turned around and went to his parents; when he arrived, Cheng Yuanxi came over with the village chief and clan chief, and he called someone.

"Village head, patriarch."

The village chief is an old man with half-white hair and over fifty years old; the patriarch is relatively younger, looking to be in his early 40s and very haggard.

"Yuan Dong! Are you looking for your parents?" the clan leader asked.

Cheng Yuandong nodded, "Yes."

"Then let's go together." The clan leader said, calling the village chief and walking past them toward Cheng Dazhu and Luo Cuihua.

Cheng Yuandong turned slightly to his brother walking beside him and spoke in a low voice, "Third brother, did you really find something edible?"

Cheng Yuanxi looked around, and after looking around, he found that there was no one with a foreign surname.

"Well, cassava, dad said it's edible; the children also saw wild boars eating it, so that's probably right."

"That's great." Cheng Yuandong beamed with joy and rubbed his palms, "Our family doesn't have much food. If we have new food, the food can last for a while; otherwise, the road ahead for our family will be even more difficult. "

Food is the source of confidence when escaping from famine.
