Almighty Military Wife
Chapter 24:
"Qinghe, do you also think that we have handed in all the grain to stagger?"
Guo Changsheng said bitterly.
How can Su Qinghe say that? She should tell her that in this situation, of course, don't pay any food. They didn't collect much, but they all handed in. The people in the team are not iron men who don't need to eat. But she can't talk nonsense.
"Old Captain, I don't know anything. It was my mother and my brother who gave me food. But I knew by looking at it that after we handed in the food, the food at home became less and less. It's hard to be hungry."
Guo Changsheng wiped his eyes, "Yes, it's too uncomfortable to be hungry."
He stood up, and the person shook. Then he left immediately.
Su Qinghe said, "Old Captain, don't you wait for my mother to come back?"
"Don't wait, I'm going to work."
Guo Changsheng waved his hands behind his back.
Su Qinghe guessed that he might be uncomfortable. It's impossible to feel uncomfortable, even she can't stand it anymore, let alone the old captain who personally handed over everyone's food.
If the relief grains still don't come down, then what is handed in is not just grain, but life.
After a while, Gao Xiulan and the children also returned.
Almost empty-handed.
As soon as Su Dabao came over, he ran towards Su Qinghe, "Aunty, there are no more, there are no earthworms. They have dug up all of them. They are all eating."
Da Ya shrugged her head and said, "Aunty, we won't eat eggs. Let the earthworms be eaten by others. Chun Ni'er was going to starve to death. When I came back, she didn't dig the earthworms. She was just over the forest. Grab the bark and eat."
Erya said, "There are still people who can't walk, their stomachs are swelling, and they say they are going to dig the soil to eat. Aunt, how can you eat the soil. The milk says people are hungry, and they can eat anything. But the soil can also eat. ?"
Gao Xiulan put a basket in the kitchen, and when she came out she heard the children talking to Su Qinghe, she was unhappy and said, "Okay, okay, what are you going to do? What happened to the starving people, why do you tell your aunts? Where's your aunt?"
The children stopped talking.
Su Qinghe frowned and said, "Mom, I heard Captain Guo say today that the relief food will not be available recently. Is it all available?"
Gao Xiulan held a broomstick and stuffed Da Ya in her hand, "sweeping the floor," and instructed Er Ya to wipe the table and chairs or something. Don't be idle with girls anyway. It hurts when they think about whether they eat or not work. Then Su Dabao and Su Erbao were rushed to the house to play, and then they sat next to Su Qinghe.
"Don't listen to the children's nonsense, they just meet people who are almost poor. There is no labor, and they are all old, weak and sick. Other people can eat a meal, at most, they have no energy and can't die for the time being. "
Gao Xiulan sighed after she said, "If our family weren't relying on your dad, it wouldn't be possible now. There are so many children, even if they don’t feed themselves, they still have to eat. Fortunately, your brother and them are all hardworking. There is more food than other families. Qingmiaoer, in the future, we will find a partner and a family with more males. Don’t find a son."
Su Qinghe nodded along, but thought of the miserable situation in the team now.
Chew bark and eat dirt. These things she used to be told as stories by others, now really happen to her side.
At noon, Su Aiguo and they got off work very early.
"I don't work anymore, I don't have the strength." Su Aiguo wiped his face. Sitting on the square table at home and sighing,
Su Ai Dang said, "If you want me to say something like a fart, it looks like nothing will grow, so I might as well rest my strength."
Su Aihua sat down next to his brother, "Mom, when do you say this relief food will come down, or else let's go to my uncle and ask."
"Ask him if it's useful? Can't you tell me now?"
Gao Xiulan said with a stern face, especially upset in her heart. I can't always rely on her man Su Dagen to raise the family. Why, I have so much labor, if I divide the food, how much is the score? Isn't it all that you can't tell is your own loss? Besides, who knows when their roots will not take care of the family. Still rely on the people above.
After eating at noon, the family was ready to go to work in the fields feebly, and saw the Lao Ding and Lao Lin's people coming again.
Unlike last time, it was a big family who came here, but Lin Lao Niang and Ding Lao Niang came, followed by Ding Jianjun, who was escorting him.
Gao Xiulan's face stretched as she watched her in-laws coming.
Mrs. Lin hurriedly said, "My family, we heard that relief food is not available. Many people in your team have interrupted and wanted to send some food."
Old Lady Lin handed the cloth bag in her hand to Lin Shuhong. Lin Shuhong reddened her eyes, "Mom, what are you doing? I don't want to eat anymore?"
"Fart, I didn't break my heart because of the spilled water." Ding Lao Niang also gave Ding Guihua the bag in her hand.
Gao Xiulan saw it with a smile on her face, "Oh, I said you come all the way, don't be polite, and send so much food."
"I'm afraid that my daughter and grandson are starving to death!" Ding Niang angrily said.
She was so angry when she went home last time, but it was her own daughter and she could not care about it. The situation is getting worse and worse these days, and I can't sit still at home. The family tightened their belts and ate one less meal a day, which saved some food. Hurry up and invite the Lin family to come over.
Ding Guihua hurriedly said, "Mom, why might I starve to death. You have one bite to eat. You can keep it for yourself." I can't help my natal family, and don't want to hinder her family's hind legs.
Gao Xiulan weighed the grain in her hand. They were all about the same weight. It was estimated that they could weigh two catties. Well, this can handle a few more meals.
"Oh, I won't entertain you anymore. Let's talk to your mother about the conversation between the old folks and the second family."
He immediately entered the room.
Su Qinghe also followed in.
In the room, Gao Xiulan happily put things in the big urn. As soon as she was about to go out, her daughter came in.
"Mom, if someone gave something, do we have to return the gift too."
Su Qinghe could see that the two aunts of the Lin family and the Ding family were more emaciated than they were last time, and they estimated that life was not easy.
Gao Xiulan said, "What's the matter with me, what happened to their girl?"
"Mom, I think so." Su Qinghe leaned over and said, "You see our family is not worthy of that right now. The sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law's maiden family are not helping either. It is estimated that this little food is their own mouth. It’s saved here. Originally the sister-in-law and the second-sister-in-law ate the family’s food, and owed our love. That's a life-saving grace. But if we collect these few catties of food from them, wouldn't the love be less? If anyone in their family is hungry, it’s still a grudge...Thanks! I’m not worth it at all."
"They dare! If anyone doesn't remember the love, I can't spare them." Gao Xiulan said with a stern face.
"Mom, this person's heart is separated from the belly, it will change. Let's guard it. Somehow, we don't owe people favors. If there is an unfavorable advantage in the future, we can take advantage of it."
Gao Xiulan felt that the girl was like herself, she didn't suffer, she cocked her mouth and said, "That's not it, it's an idiot if you don't take advantage of it."
Su Qinghe: "..." She's not an idiot! She didn't want to take advantage of this kind of life-saving food!
Regardless, under Su Qinghe's persuasion, Gao Xiulan returned gifts to her two relatives more or less. They sent sorghum noodles, so she went back to sorghum directly. Something is cheaper.
Even so, both Ding and Lin were surprised.
Mother, did the sun come out from the west? Looking out, it was really to the west.
Gao Xiulan said with this face, she didn't take advantage of it, and she felt a little unhappy in her heart, but she couldn't talk anymore, "Our family is not the one who takes advantage of it. You come and go, let's pay attention! They all say go to her family empty-handed. Come to your in-law’s house with full hands. It’s different to come to your in-law’s house and to go to your in-law’s house.
Lin Shuhong and Ding Guihua looked at their mother-in-law with emotion.
Their mother-in-law usually looks stingy and likes to take advantage, but she didn't expect that this critical moment was still very sensible. I misunderstood her old man before.
See the truth in adversity. When I met a good mother, I also met a good mother-in-law.
Su Aiguo and Su Aihua also looked at their old mother with uncomfortable faces. I feel like my old lady is fighting for them.
Gao Xiulan couldn't see them like this, and handed the bag to Lin and Ding. "Take it, I'm busy."
Lin Lao Niang took it over flatteredly, "In-law, you are so polite."
Ding Niang was also a little awkward in her heart to take it over. I felt that Gao Xiulan was a good person.
Seeing their reaction, Su Qinghe suddenly remembered a situation he had heard before. Usually it’s not good to others, and you’re a little bit better. You’re a good person in others’ hearts... So so many villains in TV dramas will end up being so easy to get rid of it because the protagonist has been abused too much... ahem, her mother is not a villain. Her mother is a knife mouth tofu heart!
Because they had to work in the afternoon, Lin and Ding returned home with the **** of Ding Jianjun.
On the way, Mrs. Lin kept talking about Gao Xiulan's goodness. "Our family Shuhong is right, her mother-in-law is still very good. Who is willing to give food to the daughter-in-law's family these days?"
Ding Niang nodded in agreement. I always feel something is wrong in my heart.
Old Niang Lin said again, "So, this person depends on what he does at a critical time. It doesn't matter how good he is usually. I think the mother in-law is really good. It's a tofu heart with a knife mouth."
Ding Niang nodded again, Lao Lin's remarks were quite good, and they were good at critical times. Willing to give food. She went home empty-handed.
Ding Jianjun said strangely, "Mom, we didn't go empty-handed when we went."
Lin Lao Niang and Ding Lao Niang: "..."
Ding Niang patted his head, "What do you know, can going to her husband's house be the same as going to her mother's house?"
Ding Jianjun touched his head with a bitter face, thinking in his heart, why is it different? After thinking about it, oh, the aunt of the Su family said that she should go back to her natal family empty-handed and come to her in-law’s house with full hands.
After sending away Mrs. Lin and the others, Su Aiguo and the others also went to work. Although there was not much work to do in the field now, they were reluctant to bear the little work points. Just go there and mix a little bit, and you can mix work points.
Gao Xiulan didn't feel sorry for them either, so why not work after eating. Get out to work.
Because just a few catties of sorghum had touched Su Aiguo and Lin Shuhong, even if Gao Xiulan was cursing, the faces of several people were still smiling.
After they left, Gao Xiulan turned around to look for her daughter. "Qingmiao'er, you are still smart. I just thought about it. They saw me return the gift this time, and next time they specify to send more. Next time I won't pay it back. We have a big advantage!"
Su Qinghe looked at her mother blankly, mother, you are really smart. This can be thought of. Isn't this like the kind of fraud in the future, the first time someone borrowed money and paid back the principal with interest? The second time I borrowed too much and ran away...
After talking with her daughter, Gao Xiulan also took her grandchildren out to collect firewood, and by the way, she could see if she could shed some grassroots back. There are no more vegetables, and it's the same if you put some grass roots in the pot.
When they were all gone, Su Qinghe closed the courtyard door and returned to the room. Everyone in the team was going to starve to death, and she still couldn't move five thousand catties of grain in her hand.
It's like holding a cage of meat buns and watching someone starve to death in front of them.
She can't control the invisible places. Visible place. Why should I help? As long as the relief food comes down. Everyone is starving.
