Chapter 15 Food
The saying "more people are more powerful" is not a joke.
With the help of the three grandma's sons and grandchildren, the house that originally took an afternoon to repair was completed in less than two hours.
Xu Qingmu was very grateful to Xu Qingping and the others, but unfortunately he could only express his thanks verbally now, and couldn't even prepare a decent meal to receive them.
Xu Qingping and the others expressed their understanding of Xu Qingmu's situation, and comforted him, "We are all brothers, so don't thank them here and there. Although you are in a difficult situation now, you and your siblings are capable people. Erya and others Also diligent, I believe you will be able to live a good life soon."
After hesitating for a while, Xu Qingping still persuaded him, "It's just Muzi, isn't it good that you fell out with that side? You don't have a son, if you make too much trouble, will the big girls and her in-laws find out that they will dislike you in the future?" ?”
Xu Qing'an, the third grandma's second son, put his arms around Xu Qingmu's shoulders, and didn't quite agree with his elder brother's words, "Brother, didn't you just say that everyone is brothers? It's not like we don't have sons below. If you are wronged, just go home and tell us, we uncles and cousins will definitely not stand by!"
Xu Qingping nodded quickly, expressing agreement with Xu Qingan's words.
Xu Qingmu first gave a wry smile, "Brother Ping, with my eldest brother's temperament, even if they don't fall out, I don't dare to count on them."
Then he expressed his gratitude to Xu Qingan.
Regardless of whether they will really help in the future, at least he has the heart now, and he is very grateful to him.
Because they still had to go to work, Xu Qingping and the others didn't stay long and left quickly.
Seeing the situation at home, Xu Qingmu also called his wife to go to work.
The second sister Xu also went together, and Xu Shuxin originally wanted to go with her, but the family firmly refused her to go with her because of the wound on her head.
Helpless, Xu Shuxin had no choice but to stay at home by herself.
After sending her parents and sisters out, Xu Shuxin closed the door and opened the system backpack to see what she had just gained.
There is food, but what excuse is there to take it out?
Xu Shuxin was a little worried.
After thinking about it, Xu Shuxin still couldn't find any reasonable excuse.
In the end, she decided not to think about it, and then she would leave this question to her father.
Anyway, if she fooled her father about the old fairy, her father also believed it, so it shouldn't matter if I borrow the old fairy to use it again, right?
So when Xu Qingmu just came home from work, he was pulled aside by the little girl, and even avoided his wife and the girls, and said to him mysteriously: "Father, I have something for you."
"What?" Xu Qingmu lowered his voice and whispered in her ear.
Xu Shuxin took him a few more steps, and came to the wooden bed he had built at noon, pointed to the bottom of the bed and said, "There."
"What is so mysterious?" Xu Qingmu whispered while squatting down and looking under the bed.
Seeing the two gray cloth bags, he was even more puzzled.
"Father, pull it out and have a look." Xu Shuxin urged him.
Xu Qingmu did so in a daze.
It's quite heavy!
Xu Qingmu muttered in his heart.
Ten catties of brown rice and twenty catties of coarse corn kernels don't have much volume, so Xu Qingmu pulled out the two bags together.
After the cloth bag was taken out, he opened one first, and then saw the brown rice inside.
Xu Qingmu's eyes widened, and he couldn't help blinking a few times, only then was he sure that these things were true!
This, is this brown rice?
Is he blind?
He immediately opened another bag and saw the kernels of corn inside.
"Xinxin, where did this come from?" Xu Qingmu almost screamed out.
He went to the brigade to borrow food, so he knew very well that he didn't borrow it.
And the bed was installed by himself. Before and after the bed was installed, he was absolutely sure that there were no two bags under it.
So, where do these things come from?
Only the little girl is at home in the afternoon. Could it be that the little girl brought it here?But these things are not heavy for him to hold, which doesn't mean the little girl can handle them.
Could it be that someone sent it to his home?
But who in the Peace Corps can send him these things?After all, food is in short supply, and no one has enough.
More importantly, although these are brown rice and coarse corn kernels, they are better than what they usually keep for eating. No one in the entire Peace Corps can find such quality food.
In just a few seconds, countless guesses flashed through Xu Qingmu's head.
"Hush!" Xu Shuxin raised her index finger to her mouth, then pointed to it, "Father, where did it come from?"
"Where?" After asking this question, Xu Qingmu suddenly heard about the old fairy that the little girl said, and felt unbelievable, "The old man you said this morning?"
Dad is very smart!
Xu Shuxin thought to herself, nodding innocently, "Yes."
Xu Qingmu: "..."
With a numb face, he no longer knew what to say.
Could it be that the little girl has an extraordinary background?
Or maybe the little girl came from the sky and came down to earth to experience calamities?
But because I did not act as a father before, and made my little girl wronged, so God used that dream to warn me?
If I didn't wake up in time and didn't propose a separation, would God let the little girl go back?
Fortunately, I have come to my senses now, but because I was purged and left the house, God was afraid that the little girl would be hungry, so he sent food?
As for why God sent coarse grains instead of fine grains, Xu Qingmu didn't notice.
He has fallen into deep thought.
Seeing that he didn't respond, Xu Shuxin thought that he was frightened, so she quickly stretched out her hand and shook it in front of him, "Father?"
Xu Qingmu didn't respond.
Xu Shuxin continued to yell, and even stretched out her hand to push him, and only then did Xu Qingmu, whose thoughts were flying wild, come back to his senses.
Xu Qingmu lowered his voice, and told the little girl, "Xinxin, don't you tell anyone else about this except father?"
Xu Shuxin nodded, "Don't tell me, I'll just tell Dad."
"It's so cute!"
"Then can we eat these grains?" Xu Shuxin asked.
She didn't want her hard-earned food to be unusable because she didn't have a good source.
Wouldn't she be busy in vain?
"Of course I want to eat." Xu Qingmu said.
This was sent by God to the little girl. Of course, I have to eat it, and I have to feed the little girl, so I can't starve her.
"Then what if the mother asks where the food comes from?"
"Father came to talk to mother."
With her father's guarantee, Xu Shuxin felt relieved.
That's all right, if she earns points to buy things from the system in the future, she won't have to worry about making excuses.
As for the mother?
Anyway, she listened to her father, and father would definitely be able to fool her!
