Chapter 204
Later, the shortage of food became more and more serious, and the city began to set the daily food purchase amount per head.There are three members of the Qi family, and it is really difficult to support four people.And this niece actually took his boyfriend to eat and drink at home from time to time, and the family couldn't afford it.

After discussing with Qi's mother, Qi's father called his brothers in the countryside, hoping that they could help him and bring more food.For the sake of safety, he even asked his son to pick him up in person.

As a result, when Qi Shuhe arrived in the village, the family didn't even give him a sip of hot water, so they brought out a bag of rice about thirty catties.With a sad face, he told about the hardships of the rural people. This year's grain harvest was desperate, and the family didn't have much.He also asked their family to take good care of his daughter.His daughter ate less, and the thirty catties was enough for her to eat for two months.

Qi Shuhe heard the meaning of his words, it was not for their family, but specially prepared for his daughter.Qi Shuhe felt that anger in his heart.He couldn't help but say, since he felt that his family had wronged his daughter, it's better to ask his daughter to go home.

As a result, with just one sentence, the family turned their faces.In front of a village, he told how many things his family usually sent to his elder brother's family in the city, but the elder brother took the things and did nothing, and let his niece suffer hardships in the city and didn't care.Now the family can't supply anything, so they turn their faces and deny anyone and want to drive their daughter away.Always described the Qi family as white-eyed wolves and snobs.

Qi Shuhe had served as a soldier for several years, but he was not as soft as his parents. At that time, his face turned black, and he left without taking any rice.When I got home, I kicked out the cousin who was domineering at home, treated herself as a eldest lady, and ordered his parents to do things at every turn.

After Qi Shuhe told about the going to his uncle's house, Qi's father was also hit.I didn't expect my brother to see me like this.In the current situation of their family, they can hardly support themselves, and they really can't afford to support that eldest lady, so it's better to leave.From now on, between brothers, I'm afraid it will stop here.

Qi Shuhe took the opportunity to persuade the two elders to go with them to Chitose Village.Qi's father and Qi's mother are still a little hesitant, even their own brothers are like this, can others be willing to take in irrelevant people?
Later Qi Shuhe called Wu Qingfeng in front of them.Wu Qingfeng also made it clear on the phone that there is no problem taking them in, and he can also provide them with a piece of land, but they have to support themselves.

Hearing what he said, the Qi family's parents felt relieved.It's just farming, it doesn't matter, they can learn.Besides, Qi's father was born in the countryside anyway, and had been exposed to farm work when he was a child, so I believe there will be no problem picking it up again.

In this way, after the family hung up the phone, they packed their bags and prepared to leave.As a result, heavy snow fell again, trapping them.If Qi Shuhe hadn't been a soldier for a few years, and had learned some kung fu from Wu Qingfeng, so he was determined to grab some things from the outside, and the old couple might starve to death at home.

So as soon as the snow stopped and the traffic resumed, they immediately set off to Chitose Village.It's just that in today's world, although the railway is still guaranteed by the state, it can still operate anyway, but the food is worth twice as much.They just ate a few steamed buns to fill their stomachs along the way, and they had already used up the little savings of the old couple.

After finally arriving in Xizhou City, there was no way to move forward.Qi Shuhe had no choice but to call Wu Qingfeng, hoping they would come to pick him up.That's why Wu Qingfeng drove Lin Bao out in such a hurry.But because Xiaohu just came back, he wasn't worried that someone would do bad things while he was away.

"Come and eat first!"

I cooked the rice before, but now I just need to warm it up, but there are three more people. In order to save time, Lian Yao cooked another big pot of noodles, using the stew made from before, which is comparable to Xiao Ke's bowl of bald noodles. Much more fragrant.

Since the food crisis, Qi Shu and the three of them have been saving food and money, changing from three meals a day to two, and changing from eight to six meals a day. It has been a long time since they had such a rich meal.Therefore, when the food was served, he didn't care about being reserved, but after expressing his gratitude to Lian Yao, he immediately immersed himself in eating.

Because of the presence of someone, Xiao Ke stayed silent and was ignored by everyone.Therefore, he shrank in front of the fireplace, while watching with disdain the few people gobbling up without any image, he felt extremely unbalanced.He only ate a little at noon.There was no way, because Wu Qingfeng didn't come back, so Lianyao just took a small bowl and gave him a little bit to eat.It took so many days to eat a meal of meat, this small bowl was really not enough for him.But he also had to admit that the meat stewed by Lian Yao was really delicious.

While they were eating, Lian Yao ran to the opposite room to tidy up the two adjacent rooms, which happened to be next to the room where Xiao Ke was currently living.There are not many things inside, Lian Yao just cleaned the dust and put quilts on the bed.

As for the daily necessities, Qi Shuhe brought all the things in the house that can be packed away, and the general daily necessities do not need to be purchased separately.

However, heating remains a problem.There is no fireplace or kang here, so I'm afraid it will be a little cold to sleep here.

Just thinking about this, Wu Qingfeng has already walked in with some belongings from the Qi family.Seeing her in a daze here, she couldn't help frowning: "It's so cold here, go back quickly when you're done."

Lian Yao came back to her senses, rubbed her hands together, and said to her senior angrily, "Senior brother, it will be very cold to sleep here at night, right?"

Wu Qingfeng remained expressionless: "There is still a coal stove at home, just install one for them soon." Looking at the room again, he pointed to an open space, "Bring over the quilt next door and put a folding bed here. Let the chess piece sleep here."

"Isn't there a room? Why are they crowded together?"

"With more people, the room will not be so cold, and it can save a stove."

Lianyao nodded, she could save a little bit. There are only a few tons of coal in the house, and it will be gone after it is used up, and there is no place to buy it in the end of the world.

"However, they won't have any objections, right? After all, they are in the room..."

Wu Qingfeng looked at the innocent junior sister, sighed inwardly, patted her head, and said in an almost cold tone: "It's not easy to not starve to death and freeze to death in the last days. No one can negotiate conditions in front of death."

Seeing her senior brother like this, Lian Yao felt a little uncomfortable.This discomfort is not because of the coldness of the senior brother, but because she knows her own lack of mentality.Some things have already been known, but when faced with them, they are not as simple as I thought.And she, who has been under the wing of her senior brother, still needs more tempering.

She bowed her head and took a step forward to hug Wu Qingfeng's waist, and buried her head in that broad chest: "Senior brother, I understand. I will pay attention to it in the future."

Sure enough, Qi Shu and his family of three not only had no objection, but were very grateful to Wu Qingfeng.It is already precarious for them to stay in the city.To put it bluntly, they have nothing now, just like beggars.Now that someone is willing to take him in and give him food, it is already a great kindness, so how can he care too much?
