four and a half year old farm family pet

Chapter 228 Famine!

"Grandma Lin in our village starved to death." Miao said with a serious look on her face: "When the village chief found out and took people in to carry her out, her stomach had been deflated into a piece of paper. She should have looked better. I haven’t eaten food for days.”

Mrs. Yu, the eldest son, wiped her tears with a handkerchief, "When we were clearing the land a few days ago, Grandma Lin greeted me with a smile and said that I was diligent and had to turn over the land even if it didn't rain or farm. I didn't expect that it only lasted three or four days." In a short time, people will be gone..."

"Why don't you come out to borrow food from the villagers when you're starving, so you can survive on half a bowl of rice soup by yourself..." Bao Juhua lamented.

"Grandma Lin cares about face the most, so how can she be willing to eat food borrowed and begged for?" Miao said.

The other sons and daughters-in-law of the Jin family also sobbed. Xu Liudi couldn't help but burst into tears when she heard such bad news during her pregnancy.

It's all the fault of these damn years. It doesn't rain, and there's no way to divert water from the river to irrigate the farmland. The family has no money.

Otherwise, no one would have to starve to death!
Yuan Bao tilted his head and asked in confusion: "Grandma, who is Granny Lin?"

She didn't know Granny Lin, and there seemed to be no such person among the Jin family's relatives.

Mrs. Miao put her granddaughter on her lap and said, "Grandma Lin is the 'good old lady' in our village. You don't know her. In the early years when her family was well off, she often gave sweets to your brothers. Even when your father was a child, he didn't even eat sweets." I sent it to her house at five o'clock and asked her to help take care of it."

After saying this, Miao looked at the sky outside and said to the five brothers of the Jin family.

"When you were young, your family was busy with farming, so you were all sent to Granny Lin's house to take care of her. Although she and I are not close relatives, we are from the same village, so we have a close relationship. Go to the town to buy some sesame oil and paper money to add to her, so as not to waste time. I don’t have to worry about anything down there. Also, go get a steamed bun from the steamer and give it to Granny Lin so that you can beat the three-headed dog on the way."

The Jin family brothers all responded silently. Seeing the adults in the family acting like this, Yuan Bao didn't dare to speak and could only lie in Miao's arms and think of a solution.

She heard Miao Miao and the animals in the mountain say that this scene is different from last year. Last year was a small famine, and this year is a big famine.

I am afraid that food for every household will become increasingly scarce. She must find a way to prevent more people from starving to death!
Just as Yuanbao was thinking this, his grandfather came in with a sigh from outside.

When Miao saw the person, she immediately grabbed the corner of the table and stood up, "Brother Zhong, what's going on outside?"

Jin Zhong glanced at Mrs. Miao, "Every household has closed its doors, for fear that someone will come to borrow food. The situation is not good, not good!"

He and Miao's generation had experienced famine when they were young. It could be described as a huge scene of starvation for thousands of miles. Running out to play on the road and encountering dead people in the grass was a common thing, but they did not expect that the weather would be smooth for a few decades. Years later, this damn year of famine is coming again!
It’s getting worse every year!
Thinking like this, the homemade tobacco in Jin Zhongshui's pipe burned faster as he took a deep breath.

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Miao immediately organized: "The eldest daughter-in-law, the second daughter-in-law, you two go under the bed in my room and see how much food is left!"

"Boss, when you are shopping recently, remember to ask where there are grains for sale, and buy more if you can! As for you brothers, take your money and go to the grain store in the town to queue up. No matter how high the price is, you still have to buy this grain back. ! Even bran rice is good!”

Miao is a woman. When she experienced the Great Famine when she was a child, it was good that the girls were not sold to the dental industry, and it was rare for them to have enough to eat.Because of this, she understands that at this time, money is really not important, food is what matters!
