Chapter 12 Drink as much as you can policy

Ke'er couldn't lift ten catties of water at all, and Xia Qiyue helped carry it, but after listening to her mother, she didn't dare at all.

He looked at her with blinking eyes, but refused to drink water with his mouth.

Xia Qiyue had no choice but to be afraid of the lack of water. A sip of water was precious and divided into several drinks. She was so cold and let her drink casually, who would dare.

Similarly, the other three were also in the same situation, all looking at Xia Qiyue with puzzled eyes.

"Although there are many of us, we are all disadvantaged groups. We are either young or weak. Today, we got this ten catties of water in front of everyone. If you keep feeling distressed and don't drink it, you may not know who will be the cheapest. It’s better to drink enough at one time, so as to restore some strength, cooking porridge at noon is impossible, time is running out, we are full and the rest of the water is just right to cook stewed rice porridge for dinner at night.”

Her words were not made up, not to mention other people, even the members of Lao An's family would miss their water.

Ten catties is more than all the property of Lao An's family. How could Liu Mei and Ge Mingyu's generation not worry about it?Then the troubles will continue.

After drinking all the ten catties of water, they will have less than two catties of water on their bodies, and it will be easy to protect them.

As for the five catties of fine grains, she had already put them into the space under the cover of the basket.

After hearing Xia Qiyue's analysis, the two cubs were fine, Xia Jiuyue and Xia Xinghe came to realize that they really couldn't keep the water, they might as well drink it now that they have water.

So, with the unanimous approval of the three big ones, An Qingke was the first to gurgle.

There wasn't much food in her stomach, but Xia Qiyue didn't dare to let her drink too much for someone who was thirsty for so long and only had a little water every day.

As a result, after everyone drank until they were satisfied and felt no thirst, they only drank about a third of the water.

But the faces of those who drank enough water were filled with happy smiles.

His face turned a little rosy.

Next, Xia Qiyue sat the four of them down and started their family meeting.

She has golden fingers, and she doesn't want to hide in front of her family. It's because she has the memory of the original owner, and knows that her younger brother and sister are good, and they are good to herself. Secret person.

Therefore, she had to vaguely tell them about her magic, and let them keep it a secret for herself, so she didn't have to ask questions, so that she could save a lot of worry on the way to escape.

"As the head of everyone, I want to hold a meeting for you today!" Xia Qiyue said seriously.

Let's go first, although I haven't eaten the rations yet, but after drinking enough water, I feel refreshed a lot, and the four people who are in high spirits all nodded solemnly.

"The first one is to absolutely obey the orders of your parents. You can't ask questions. Do what I ask you to do! Can you do it?"

Xia Qiyue had a serious look on her face, and Ke'er and Xuan'er looked terrified, a little afraid of such a mother, but they nodded heavily when Xia Qiyue looked over.

"Mother, Ke'er will listen to what mother says, be good!"

The others quoted by the little guy's words also followed suit.

Only then did Xia Qiyue get to the point, she took out three large white steamed buns that she had bought in the morning from her basket, and when everyone stared at them in a daze, divided half of them into each person's hands and put them in everyone's hands.

The steamed buns produced in the space are very large, half the size of the steamed buns generally sold in this space-time.

So don't worry about them not getting enough to eat, even she herself can eat so-so.

"Elder sister...this..." Xia Jiuyue still couldn't believe it, the slightly warm big white steamed bun she was holding in her hand was real.

She stuttered and wanted to ask something, but when she saw her sister's face, she suddenly remembered the family rules that her sister said just now, she absolutely obeyed, she couldn't ask questions, and shut her mouth a little nervously, but she still didn't dare to eat.

"Remember, no matter what I bring out for you to eat in the future, just eat it quickly! Don't ask and don't tell anyone! This is the only house rule in our family! Eat it quickly! Oh no!"

Xia Qiyue re-emphasized the family rules again, and then took the lead in taking a bite of the steamed bun.

One half of the three steamed buns was left for each person, but Xia Qiyue didn't take it back, and just took it like that, "Today we will eat and drink enough, and whoever is not full can eat the remaining half of the steamed buns in my hand!"

This is all right, people who were already starving with starvation didn't have any guesses, Xia Xinghe was the first to finish eating the big steamed buns with strong wheat aroma, as the saying goes, a half-sized man eats a poor man .

Xia Qiyue saw that he was not full, so she gave him the remaining half.

In the somewhat cool and dark cave, five people ate their first full meal in nearly two years.

The steamed buns are not oily, and it's okay to be full. After eating, Xia Qiyue gave everyone another drink of water, and their stomachs felt full.

It was originally a sickness and weakness caused by hunger, but now I feel refreshed after eating full, except that my face is still sallow and thin due to malnutrition, but my strength has been restored.

But ten catties of water only left more than four catties.

Although she had a full meal, her complexion did not recover so easily, so Xia Qiyue took her younger siblings and a pair of children out on the road under the call of Li Zheng. What Aunt Wang saw was still the same as before, with a yellow complexion, emaciated and weak .

But the lips are not dry.

After thinking about it, she knew that ten catties of water must be enough for the children to drink once.

The afternoon sun is still dazzling and venomous, making the mouths of people who are already thirsty dry.

Xia Qiyue still carried the two children on her back, but the younger siblings were separated after saluting.

On the way, Mrs. An turned her head from time to time, looking at Xia Jiuyue and Xia Xinghe with calculating eyes, and her complexion became even more ugly.

If it weren't for the bad thing about that cheap hoof, maybe all the fine grains in Xia Qiyue's hands would have been in his hands.

This made her angry, and she didn't give Liu Mei the food rations at noon, and it was another mess.

Also furious was Liu Mei herself, she was angry with Xia Qiyue, angry that she didn't separate out the fine grains, angry that she didn't pay attention to her, angry that she made her embarrassing in front of so many people and didn't eat at noon.

Originally, she would hang herself with one mouthful, but now that she missed a meal, she would almost be unable to walk now, and she had to carry so much luggage.

But she couldn't make a fuss, and she had already missed a meal at noon. If she made a fuss again, maybe Lao An's family would abandon her.

Her natal family is not in the village, so she can't go back even if she is here. Her parents are so patriarchal, she won't be able to please her when she goes back, and she may still starve to death.

Now I can only walk as hard as I can, and I can eat something in the evening.

She only remembered to complain, and didn't even look at how much her daughter who was walking next to her had recited for her.

In Lao An's house, patriarchy is already a traditional virtue.

Under such circumstances, it is not easy for a girl to survive, not to mention that her mother is also patriarchal. God knows how An Qingyan survived under Liu Mei.
