Chapter 1662 Three Can't Work ([-])
He Shanshan asked the old man beside her, "Why are there so many people bringing their children here to exchange food?"

The old man guessed: "It should be that a large amount of food arrived today, which attracted these people who were attracted by the movement."

He Shanshan nodded.

"How much grain is left?" He Shanshan frowned, judging from the [-] catties borrowed from each household, would her original [-] catties plus the later [-] catties be enough?
"There are still more than [-] catties of grain left," the old man answered truthfully.

She can be sure that the food is definitely not enough.

Does she want to collect some more food?
But considering that the price of food in the whole country has risen, it is estimated... that it is difficult to receive the corresponding food.

She can't collect grain at a high price now and ask them to pay back the grain at a low price later, right?

Furthermore, if she really collected grain at a high price, it is estimated that the new emperor who is eyeing the He and Yang families will directly make a judgment.

Maybe the next person who ransacked his home on the charge of Luo Zhi will become her family and her family.

"Alas... After all, it's because of my limited ability," He Shanshan sighed, making a look of helplessness.

"Didn't the court distribute food?" He Shanshan asked again.

The old man knew that there was, but he had already been deducted [-]% by many people on the road, and only a tiny [-]% could go to the place, and it was estimated that it might not even be [-]% to be distributed to the common people.

But these are not easy to say here, after all, this is still a secret to the court.

"There is such news, but the news is not very clear," the old man nodded, and said, "If my wife wants to know, just wait a little longer, and I will go find out the news."

He Shanshan nodded, with surprise in her eyes, is there any news that the old man hasn't heard yet?
Lao Ren, who was still shouting just now, was standing ten meters behind He Shanshan and the others unknowingly. This distance was just right, and people with sharp ears could hear their conversation in a subdued voice.

He Shanshan turned her back to Lao Ren and didn't notice it. Although the old man facing her didn't look up, she had already noticed it. He believed that her master must have noticed it too.

"Thank you," He Shanshan nodded.

"Mother, we want to play with those brothers, sisters and sisters," Da Gou saw that it was impossible to escape the sight of adults, so he simply asked.

"No," He Shanshan refused without thinking.

"Look at them all so sad, maybe if we find them to play, they will be happy?" Er Hua also had bright eyes.

He Shanshan still shook her head: "No."

The four little ones have been rejected three times in a row, and their whole spirits are withered, like eggplants beaten by Shuang.

Usually, when children behave like this, adults can't help but want to pamper them, including He Shanshan, but she holds back, she feels that she will regret it later if she does that, and she trusts her instincts.

"Mother, let's not stay here anymore, we have to go back," Da Gou deliberately threatened.

"Okay." He Shanshan was not threatened at all, the little guy was so small, even if he learned to hide his expression, he could still be seen through at a glance.

Da Gou lowered his head, obediently being stared at by Wang and his party.

At this time, another thing happened.

It has something to do with exchanging children for food, but it has nothing to do with it.

"I don't have a household registration document, and I don't have a house deed. Can I exchange my child for food?" the woman asked earnestly, holding the sleeping child in her arms.

Lao Ren returned to her position and shouted out the rules again.

The woman hurriedly said: "I am willing, I am willing, I am willing."

He Shanshan frowned, the sound is so loud now, even the sleeping child should be woken up, right?However, at this time, the five or six-year-old boy in the woman's arms was not asleep and remained motionless.

something wrong.
