Chapter 151
"What?"

Qi Cheng's face was dumbfounded, and he even wondered if there was something wrong with his ears.

But Yi Meng thought of something else, and asked patiently: "Man Bao'er, you mean your grandpa won't get sick as long as he has tobacco leaves?"

"It's not that I'm not sick."

Qi Manman frowned tightly, not knowing how to explain this question.

Yi dreamed that she was like this, and felt that something was wrong.

It's not sick, what is it?
Qi Manman scratched his head and didn't know how to explain it. Seeing Qi Cheng felt distressed for a while, he made a decision and said to Yi Meng: "You let Sanlang go out and see if you can buy tobacco leaves. The old man can't live without that cigarette for the rest of his life. , I don’t know how many breaths of cold wind have blown along the way.”

"Okay, I'll arrange it now."

Yi Meng also felt that this was the only way to arrange it now.

She doesn't know what will happen to the others now, so let's make clear arrangements first!
Qi Sanlang was still puzzled when he was called to him by Yi Meng, but he was even more surprised when he heard the job he had arranged for him: "Buying tobacco leaves? Fourth aunt, grandpa hasn't smoked for a long time, hasn't he?"

"I didn't smoke before because I didn't have any tobacco leaves. This is money, you take it, and if you find someone who sells tobacco leaves, you can buy some better tobacco leaves for your grandfather."

Yi Meng handed Qi Sanlang a bunch of copper coins: "Don't go alone, ask your Uncle Tao to follow, go back as soon as possible, don't delay outside."

"Ah good."

Qi Sanlang didn't ask any more questions, took the copper coins and ran to the gate.

Not long after Qi Sanlang left, there was a burst of noise outside the door.

Yi Meng just came out of Ji Hu's house, and was about to ask Yin Cheng about making medicine, when he heard a voice from outside the door, he hurried over to meet him.

As a result, before they even got to the door, they saw Quan Jin driving an ox cart towards the door.

"Brother Jin, you are back!"

Seeing that Xianggong came back, Yimeng was very happy, and hurried forward to help.

Quan Quanjin waved his hand: "Don't touch your hands, we'll just fix it."

After a pause, Qi Quanjin said again: "Daughter-in-law, is there any hot water? Everyone is freezing, so we need to hurry up and drink something warm."

"There are some, they are all ready-made. Come in and warm up first, and I will prepare hot water right now."

Yi Meng greeted him, but he had already rushed into the kitchen.

Everyone in the kitchen was busy, talking and working, the voices were not low, and no sound from outside was heard.

Seeing Yi Meng come in in a hurry, they were startled.

Wang Daya asked: "Mengniang, what's the matter?"

"Brother Jin and the others are back, quickly get some hot water to warm them up."

Yi Meng hurriedly told the matter.

When everyone heard that the men who were chopping wood had returned, all of them looked happy.

Even though they just went out to chop firewood, and so many people went out, it is said that nothing would happen.

But everyone is still thinking about it.

It's chaotic outside now, there are wild animals and the like in the woods, I'm afraid something will happen, and I won't be able to find anyone when I try to find them.

Quan Qijin and the others were greeted into the room where the second room rested.

Hula, so many people entered at once, and the room, which was originally not that big, became lively in an instant.

At this moment, Qu Laidi didn't care about the cleanliness anymore, and asked everyone to go to the kang to keep warm.

The hot water was brought over, and some sugar was added to each bowl. It was sweet and warm, and everyone felt comfortable after drinking it.

"Fourth, who do you think the fourth siblings met when they went out today?"

Qu Laidi distributed the soaked towels to everyone one by one, and did not forget to speak.

Before Qi Quanjin could answer, Qi Dafu asked, "Who did you meet?"

Quan Qijin immediately said, "Is it the people in the village?"

"How do you know it?"

Qu Laidi looked at Quanjin in shock: "The fourth sibling told you just now?"

"No, I guessed."

Qi Quanjin sighed: "We are new here, we are not familiar with the place where we live, how can we meet acquaintances?"

"Hey, after you say that, it's not like that."

Qu Laidi also sighed: "I met Ji Hu and the others, but there were only a few of them in total. I heard from Mr. Yin that if we didn't meet today, and tomorrow, those few people would be frozen to death."

The others were all shocked when they heard these words.

Qi Dafu quickly asked: "How are those people doing now?"

"I was warmed up and fed some soup. Now I am resting in the opposite room! But at the moment, no one is awake. Mr. Yin said to wait until night to see. If he is still awake, he can only force the soup. "

Qu Laidi said again: "But in this way, the place we live in won't be so spacious. Dad also said that when you come back, he's thinking about renting another yard nearby tomorrow. It's okay to live in such a crowded place." It's not the case."

Qi Ercai and Quanquanjin looked at each other subconsciously.

Both brothers saw the irritability in each other's eyes.

I have to rent a house again, and I have to pay a sum of money.

Although they sold the ginseng to get money, almost half of it has been spent now. If things go on like this, how can the remaining money be enough to buy land?
However, they all knew that under such circumstances, it would definitely not work if they didn't help each other.

"Okay, I know about this."

Quan Quanjin handed the towel to Qu Laidi, and he got off the kang: "Second sister-in-law, please excuse me."

"No trouble, no trouble, you have all been out in the cold for a day, hurry up and warm up, don't freeze."

Qu Laidi took back the hand towels that everyone handed back one by one, put them into the basin, and was going to re-starch them before drying them.

Although each family has its own hand towels, there are also hand towels shared by everyone. On weekdays, whoever has time can wash them, and it is convenient to take them anytime after drying.

Qu Laidi has no talent for cooking, so among the sisters-in-law, she prefers to do these less strenuous washing tasks.

After Quan Quanjin got off the kang, Qi Ercai also got off the kang.

Qi Dafu and Qi Sangui also followed.

In this way, everyone went out of the room again.

Quan Quanjin and Qi Ercai went to see Ji Hu and the others, while the others started to pick up the firewood cut back today.

Yin Cheng just came back from the front yard, and saw that Qi Qijin and the others were going to see those people, so he followed into the house.

"I froze my body and need to take good care of it."

There was no one else around at the moment, and Yin Cheng told the truth: "That woman's condition is the most serious, and the root cause of the disease must be left behind."

As he said that, Yin Cheng pointed to Mrs. Lai: "When cleaning her up, your wife found several wounds on her arms, which looked like they were cut with sharp knives, and she probably gave her blood to drink."

"what?"

Qi Quanjin and Qi Ercai were both shocked: "Drink, drink human blood?"

Yin Cheng nodded with a solemn expression: "We couldn't find any water source along the way, and they probably didn't get any better. People are extremely thirsty, let alone blood, even urine can be drunk, otherwise survive."
