Chapter 19 Help
When Qin Xinyi came home, she saw Cuifen was cooking and the nanny came to help.

While it was still dark, the other boys took the children to pick wild vegetables and prepared to dry them so that they could fill their stomachs on the way.

Although the third child and the second child are more thorny, they have been repaired by Qin Xinyi to be more honest in the past few days. The main reason is that they have no food or drink and they are fleeing famine, so they probably don't have the mood to go out and wander.

Seeing how well-behaved the children were, Qin Xinyi remembered the candies in her pocket, so she took out four candies and gave them to Jiajia, who was as strong as Xiaoluo.

The third child and the second child looked at their mother eagerly, and Qin Xinyi suddenly felt blind.

Each of them looked fourteen or fifteen years old, and they were still cubs in the last days.

He fumbled in his pocket again, one piece for everyone, even the nanny.

Seeing that her mother didn't eat, she tilted her head to look at her mother and said, "Mother, you and I can eat a piece!"

Qin Xinyi reached out and touched Wanru's yellow hair and said, "Mother, I don't like sweets, you can eat them."

The nanny also followed up and said: "I don't like it either, save it for the children! Xinyi, I'm not talking about you, look at you, why go to the city to buy so many candies, why waste money? Isn't it good to buy food?"

Qin Xinyi smiled helplessly and explained: "This candy can save lives at critical times. Some people are deficient in nutrition and can't eat other coarse grains. Eating chewing gum will fill you with strength. This is what I read in a book. of."

The nanny looked at Qin Xinyi dotingly and said, "Okay, okay, listen to you, save it for the children to eat."

Qin Xinyi grabbed the nanny's arm and shook it like a child: "Mother, you can eat it, just eat this piece, I will keep the rest."

The nanny could not live up to Qin Xinyi's filial piety, so she ate helplessly.

Qin Xinyi saw that Cuifen was also hesitant to speak, so she could only say helplessly: "Give it to me, eat it if you want it, don't push me one by one, why do you look down on my candy?"

In the end, Cuifen still ate half of it, and secretly hid half of it while Qin Xinyi was not paying attention.

Not long after, the boss came back.

Cui Fen also made pancakes and egg soup.

The third and fourth children took the initiative to move the table to the yard, and the whole family sat there waiting for Qin Xinyi to divide the meal.Since I pawned the porcelain bowl, now I can only find the previous bamboo bowl, so that I won't be afraid of bumping into it on the road.

After distributing the pancakes, each person has a small bowl of egg soup.Just smelling the fragrance of frangipani, I couldn't help but swallow my saliva.

It was funny to see them drinking until their mouths were full and they were unwilling to swallow it, and they looked so useless.

I feel that although wild vegetables are added, the taste is a little bit bitter, but after eating it will have a sweet taste

road.They think it's still pretty good.

I can drink egg soup and feel very happy.

Qin Xinyi also picked it up, took a sip, frowned, and cried out inwardly, it was so bitter.

Thinking of waiting until it was not hot, he gulped and drank it.

After eating the pancakes slowly, when the egg soup was colder, Qin Xinyi picked up the bowl and drank it in one gulp.

It feels like drinking Chinese medicine.

Seeing her mother drinking the soup like this, the second child couldn't help but said, "Mother, drink it in such a hurry, you can taste the fragrance! You have to drink it little by little, so that you can taste the fragrance of frangipani better."

Qin Xinyi said angrily: "Eat yours, can't you stop your mouth after eating?"

After the family ate happily, the bowl and pot were licked clean.No need to wash dishes like last night.

Seeing that everyone had finished eating, the boss thought about telling his mother about going out with the village chief today.

He looked at his mother and said: "Today, I went to the village chief and told them to dig wild yams in the mountains tomorrow. They all said whether it would be poisonous. We lied to him, and some believed it. Tomorrow, I will go up the mountain with me to have a look."

"Mother, you said that we gave them all such good things, and we won't dig up any more."

Qin Xinyi gave the boss a reassuring look and said, "We don't need to dig any more. Tomorrow, you take them to get to know each other and let them search around Niutoushan according to their ability."

"I guess there should be more, but they don't know each other, and they don't know that they grow underground."

"The birds in those mountains can't eat it, and only wild boars can come out, but now there is no water, the wild boars in the mountains are either dead, or they have gone to deeper forests and forests, and it is not certain whether they will survive or not. That's cheap for us."

"Tomorrow we will bake some yams at home, and make dry food on the way. Boss, before it is dark, go to your father-in-law's house and tell him that as soon as he comes over tomorrow, he will also take your father-in-law to dig some yams on the mountain. So that they can eat more."

At this time, Cui Fen's eyes were red and she was very moved.In fact, she wanted to tell her mother-in-law a long time ago, but she never dared to.

Seeing that her mother-in-law said that she would tell the villagers, she wondered if she could go back to her mother's house and talk about it?

She didn't expect her mother-in-law to be so kind to her family. Before she asked, her mother-in-law thought of it.

Cuifen's eyes were red, and she choked up and said, "Mother, thank you."

Qin Xinyi smiled knowingly: "Silly boy, we are a family, and your mother's family is also good. Let them dig some, and life will be easier. By the way, ask them to see when they will flee the famine."

The boss hurried out while it was still dark.

He walked for about half an hour to Xinghua Village.When he arrived at his father-in-law's house, he began to knock on the door.

His father-in-law heard the movement and asked loudly, "Who is it?"

Xiaoguang said out of breath, "Father, it's me, Xiaoguang."

Hearing the voice of his son-in-law, old man Zhang quickly ordered his youngest son Dunzi to open the door.

Dunzi trotted to open the door, ""Second brother-in-law, you are here. "

Xiaoguang followed Dunzi into the door.

Dunzi originally wanted to ask his brother-in-law to sit in the house, but saw that the house was dark, and there was no oil lamp at home, so it would be better to be in the yard, because there is still some moonlight, so it is not very dark.

Old man Zhang took out some benches from the house, and asked anxiously: "Why are you here so late, what's the matter? Is there no food at home? Wait a while, let your mother bring two catties of coarse grain. "

Xiaoguang's eyes turned red when he heard his father-in-law's words. Although there was moonlight, it was too dim to see clearly, so no one noticed.

Xiaoguang quickly shook his head and said: "Father, there is food at home. This afternoon, my mother and I went to our Niutou Mountain to find a lot of wild yams. My mother asked me to tell you that you can take the ones that can work at home. Our family, let's go to the mountain to look for it, my mother said there should be more."

Old man Zhang originally wanted to say that he would take his brothers to dig along with him, but after thinking about it, he decided that it must be inappropriate, and he didn't know how much more he could find on the mountain.

Thinking that after the digging by my family, I can share with my brothers and make them feel better, I had a plan in my heart, and quickly responded: "Okay, tomorrow morning, I will take their brothers to find you."

Seeing that his father-in-law agreed, Xiaoguang wanted to go back.

Old man Zhang saw that Xiaoguang was about to leave, so he hurriedly shouted: "Old woman, go get two catties of coarse grain!" "

Xiaoguang saw that his father-in-law really wanted to give him food, so he quickly walked two steps, turned around and waved to his father-in-law: "Father, please close the door quickly, go back and rest, and go there early tomorrow morning. I'm leaving."

Xiaoguang left without looking back.

Old man Zhang watched Xiaoguang go away, and didn't turn back until he couldn't see the figure.
