The whole village flees famine and gnaws bark, I have a system to not panic

Chapter 14
Qin Xinyi came out of the seed shop, walked slowly, and arrived at the grocery store they had agreed to sell salt.

There are quite a few people who buy salt, and they probably want to save some salt.

Hearing that they thought it was too expensive to buy salt over there, they were all frowning, but they still had to buy it.

hear them say,

"Why has the price of this salt increased again? It's really hard to live!"

"Who says it's not? Isn't this just raising some money, buying some salt, and hurrying on the road!"

"How much did you pay for it?"

"The cheapest one. There are so many people in the family. How can we do without salt on the road? If there is no salt on the road, the body will not be able to carry it."

"That's right, let's buy it quickly and go back. The village chief has asked us to prepare for it these days."

"This coarse salt is so bitter that it costs a hundred cash now!"

"Those coarse salt and slightly bitter ones cost five hundred cash."

"That's a lot. You didn't see that the fine salt costs one tael of silver. The finer and better ones cost two taels of silver!"

Qin Xinyi heard them say this and that, how much money does your family have, what things have you prepared to go on the road, and so on.It's annoying to hear.

Qin Xinyi didn't want to suffer, but she had to find a way to get it out of the space.

When I was thinking about it, I heard the salt shopkeeper say: "My sister-in-law, what kind of salt do you want?"

Qin Xinyi looked around, and then she came back to her senses. Knowing that the shopkeeper of salt was talking to herself, she settled down and said, "Give me three catties of coarse salt, the cheapest kind."

She knew that it was impossible to negotiate the price of salt now, so she simply didn't bother talking.

I talked too much just now, and I feel my mouth is dry, so I quickly bought it and went home.

The shopkeeper said there with a blank face, probably numb from hard work!

After paying the money, he took the salt and put it in a cloth pocket.Just walk outside.

At this time, seeing the boss, the second child rushed over pushing the cart.

When they came over, they saw that his mother was already at the door of the grocery store, so they quickened their pace.

The boss said out of breath, "Mother, you have come here a long time ago, so let's hurry up and buy salt."

Seeing the two of them, Qin Xinyi quickly said, "I've sold everything, let's go back now."

The two quickly responded, yes.Then start walking back.

Passing by a seller of multi-grain steamed buns, the second child sniffed there and said, "It's so delicious!"

When Qin Xinyi saw the second child's unpromising appearance, she was really blind.

Tilt your head, pretending you don't know him.

I heard the second child muttering there, "It's good to have a steamed bun with whole grains."

The boss heard it, and quickly reprimanded, "Stop nagging, it will be sad for mother to hear it."

It's so close, can Qin Xinyi not hear you?Of course I heard it.

Qin Xinyi rubbed her forehead and said: "Okay, stop muttering there, walk for a while, when we rest, I will feed you, hurry up and go."

The second child glanced at his mother, and saw that their mother did not seem to be lying.

I began to look forward to it in my heart, and my pace quickened a lot.

Watching them happily walking all the way, they left the city gate and walked for more than an hour.

Looking at them at this time, the steps are heavy, and the sweat is also ticking.

Her lips were dry and chapped, and she had nothing to say all the way, otherwise she would be more thirsty if she talked too much.

Qin Xinyi said, "Okay, let's rest here!"

Qin Xinyi took out the water bag, took a sip of water to moisten her chapped lips.

I handed it to the boss and asked him to drink some too, and took out two corn buns from the bag.

Qin Xinyi looked at them and said, "Eat one for each of them."

The boss saw the second child who was stretching out his hand quickly, glared at him and said, "Mom, things are so expensive now, you can just eat by yourself, my second child and I are not hungry."

The second child hurriedly said, "Brother, mother has already agreed to give us something to eat, why don't you let me eat it? If you don't eat, how can you have the strength to push the cart."

The second child gave his eldest brother a look, and said: "Mom, elder brother won't eat, I will eat one."

Qin Xinyi said angrily: "I let you eat, just eat, why are you so mother-in-law. I still have this, you eat, after a while, find a shady place to sit down and I will eat too."

After Qin Xinyi finished speaking, she gave each of them a steamed bun, and gave them the water bag, signaling them to sit down and eat slowly.

I also found a shady tree under the tree, took out half of the bun, and ate it slowly.

The boss still took the corn bread and gnawed there.

If you don’t want to eat it, it’s a fake. They’re all big boys, which one is not pretending to be a meal.

It is said that the middle-aged and the poor eat the poor, let alone at this time.

The second son enjoyed eating on his own. He felt that he hadn't eaten such delicious steamed buns for a long time. Since his father passed away, the family has plummeted all of a sudden.

The two ate the buns and took a rest for a while.It feels good to have food in my stomach.

Qin Xinyi saw that she had almost rested, and patted the dirt road on her body, "Have you rested? Alright, let's hurry up and try to get home early. Didn't the village chief say that we have a meeting today?"

The boss and the second child agreed, then got up and began to push the cart back.

In this way, there were nine bends and eighteen bends, uphill and downhill, and then turned again. After walking for more than an hour, I arrived home.

I saw the eldest daughter-in-law and the others drying the picked wild vegetables on the grates in the yard.

Seeing Qin Xinyi and the others coming back, the two little ones hurried over with expectant eyes and said, "Grandma, you're back."

Qin Xinyi reached out and touched the heads of the two children and said, "Are you good at home, are you not naughty at home?"

Jiajia puffed up her chest and said, "Grandma, we are obedient, we were helping mother pick up the wild vegetables just now."

Qin Xinyi nodded and said, "You guys have eaten."

Seeing the two of them drooping their heads, they didn't dare to answer.

She knew that as long as she didn't bring out the food, the eldest daughter-in-law would not go to the upper room to get food for cooking.

She was also to blame for leaving in a hurry in the morning and forgot to take it out for them.

Qin Xinyi took out her small bundle, opened it and put four or five corn buns inside.

The two cubs also followed her movements and looked at the burden, their eyes became brighter and brighter, and their faces showed joyful expressions. After all, they didn't eat anything in the morning, and they were very hungry now.

Qin Xinyi hurriedly told the eldest daughter-in-law to boil some hot water, and drink some water after eating the buns.

Arrange for the youngest to ask their grandma to have a meal too.

After a while, the third child and the nanny also came over, and the eldest daughter-in-law's water was ready, and the whole family stared at the bun and drool.

Qin Xinyi said: "Boss, second child, and I have eaten on the way, so just drink some water and quench your thirst."

The second child hesitated to speak, but in the end he did not speak.

He also knew that there was not much food now, and their mother didn't bring out a few buns.I can only drink some water to comfort myself.

Not long after they had finished eating, they heard the village head beating the gong.

Everyone looked at Qin Xinyi in blank dismay.
