In the next few days, the clouds were light and the wind was light, and Shen Ning went out to investigate, and it seemed that the situation was not as strict as that person said.

However, Shen Ning didn't feel relieved, because after he inquired, the price of food in the town had risen. Compared with the price when Shen Ning went to buy it that day, it was at least doubled.

Compared with the simple and ignorant villagers, the people in the town can often get some news faster, and can analyze the news and then make countermeasures.

Shen Ning is not much better than these villagers, and his only advantage is the experience accumulated over thousands of years, as well as the knowledge he has learned when he was studying or in society.

Therefore, Shen Ning could sense that something was wrong, but he couldn't say what was wrong. This is the same as a person who has knowledge, but is not familiar with a thing because of his knowledge or lack of knowledge.

"Don't worry too much!" Tang Yanxiu pulled Shen Ning over and asked him to sit down beside him. "This kind of thing has happened before, and when the court officials come down and the help is distributed, there will be no problem."

Shen Ning leaned on his shoulder with Tang Yanxiu's strength, and he was busy for a few days, not only physically, but also psychologically. In his previous life, he lived in a stable world, and even if there was a disaster, he was far away from him, but now, when he got closer, he knew the fear in it.

"You can't be fine!" Shen Ning grabbed Tang Yanxiu's shirt with one hand, and when he came to this world, he had always been Tang Yanxiu by his side, no matter what aspect it was, he didn't want anything to happen to the other party.

"No, it won't." Tang Yanxiu stretched out his hand and patted Shen Ning on the back, I still want to be with you for the rest of my life, how can there be anything.

Therefore, when Tang Gui rushed over, what he saw was the two people hugging each other in the courtyard.

"Ahem-" coughed lightly, and the two people inside immediately separated, Tang Gui muttered secretly in his heart, will he be able to hold the child soon?

Shen Ning's face couldn't be more red at this time, after all, □□he was really the first time that he had been caught by someone all the time.

"Auntie." Tang Yanxiu's face was as usual, and Shen Ning had no choice but to say hello.

"Well, Brother Shen, I just heard from Chun Ama from the next village that his relatives in the neighboring county have been planning to come to his house to borrow for a while, and the drought is getting worse and worse, I'm afraid it won't be peaceful recently, you two should be more careful at home, and don't go to the town too often."

The two sat up straight, and Shen Ning still couldn't react.

"Is it really so strict?"

"It hasn't rained for months, and the food can't be grown, and the people there can't survive, otherwise who would want to leave." Tang Gui sighed as he spoke, I don't know how many people will suffer at this moment.

The three of them talked for a while, Shen Ning asked some details, and his heart was low, and after that, Tang Gui left, and took away some of Shen Ning's new food.

Recently, a batch of tofu has been shipped to the restaurant, and the shopkeeper has also vaguely mentioned the situation to Shen Ning, which means that the drought may last for a long time, because there is no news from above.

The shopkeeper will remind Shen Ning, mainly because there is a transaction between the two, and he has also tasted the cold skin that Shen Ning brought last time, and it is a good way to make money by promoting it, but Shen Ning has no intention of selling, he still wants to open a restaurant by himself.

After all, having a career of one's own is the pursuit of every man.

Now, Shen Ning is making some food that is easy to store, such as cakes and barbecue.

The village is not close to the sea or salt lake, so the price of salt is not cheap, but Shen Ning doesn't care about this, making tofu itself requires a lot of salt, so there is no shortage at home.

Wash the pork you bought, smear it with sauce and salt, and hang it in the kitchen to smoke, in this kind of weather, it is easy to spoil when hung outside, so Shen Ning plans to throw it into the space as soon as it is ready. In addition to bacon, Shen Ning wants to make pork trotters in sauce.

In fact, the sauce pig's trotters are just Shen Ning's own name, because this method is said to have come from a certain court, and it is very time-consuming to make zuò, and Shen also found the raw materials for a long time.

When he saw this kind of thing on TV before, he always wanted to do it himself, but he never had time, but now that he has time, he has to do it well.

Wash it clean, rub it with salt, and it looks like you need a massage?

Shen Ning recalled the memory in his mind, followed the steps step by step, and waited for the ingredients to enter the pot, it was almost an hour.

"A-Ning, the peppercorns you want." Tang Yanxiu walked in and looked at Shen Ning.

"Help me grind it into powder." Shen Ning put the ingredients in his hand into the pot, then squatted down and continued to burn the fire.

There was not much firewood piled up in the backyard, and Shen Ning threw the firewood in his hand into the stove, planning to pick up some in the afternoon.

"Let's go to the mountains in the afternoon, we don't have much firewood at home."

Tang Yanxiu gave full play to his principle of agreeing to everything that Fu Lang said, and agreed without hesitation.

So, after lunch, the two went up the mountain.

The temperature on the mountain was a little lower than in the village, and the layers of leaves blocked most of the sunlight, but it was still unbearably hot, and the water that Shen Ning hung on his waist had already been half removed, but he still felt the heat.

"Whew, it's hot!" Leaning in the shade, Shen Ning fanned the wind with his hands, feeling too tired, so he simply picked up a large leaf from the ground to use as a fan.

"No wonder they have drought in those places." After pouring a sip of water, Shen Ning couldn't help but sigh.

"This year is much hotter than usual." Tang Yanxiu handed over the wet handkerchief, and Shen Ning took it and wiped his face.

"You use water from a bamboo tube?"

"Well, there's no water around here."

Looking at the handkerchief in his hand, Shen Ning couldn't help but mutter: "What a loser, this is spiritual spring water!" ”

"Huh? A-Ning, what did you say? Tang Yanxiu heard the muttering sound and looked up and asked.

"Nothing." Shen Ning shook his head and moved his gaze to the side, where there were already almost two loads of firewood.

A few more will suffice.

Thinking that he would go back as soon as possible, Shen Ning sped up the movements of his subordinates.

"Woo-woo-"

As soon as the axe went down, a whining sound came from the bushes next to it, Shen Ning stopped cutting the tree, took the axe in his hand, and sure enough, he heard a whining sound again.

What is it?

Shen Ning walked in the direction of the bushes, and sure enough, his voice was clearer again.

"Woo-woo-woo-"

If I listened carefully, it was a bit like the sound of a small animal, and it was the kind that had just come out for a short time.

As soon as I was about to reach out and push back the bush to see what it was, my hand was caught.

"Stay safe." With that, a stick stretched out and pushed through the bushes, and inside, a little milk cat was whining.

"Cats?" Shen Ning pinched the neck of the little thing and mentioned it in front of him, but the little thing's eyes didn't open, and when he sensed that there was something around, his limbs stretched out lazily.

"It's not a cat." Tang Yanxiu glanced at it, "It should be a tiger cub." ”

Shen Ning's hand shook and he almost threw the small thing in his hand out.

"How can there be tiger cubs in this place?" Since there are tiger cubs, what about the tiger mother? Will it be far?

"A few days ago, I heard from the villagers that they had seen tigers around, but now they are gone." A few days ago, hunters had already organized a hunt, and this cub should have been left behind at that time.

Shen Ning thought for a while, as if there was indeed such a thing, so ...... He looked at the tiger cub in his hand and was a little embarrassed.

"This one, what should I do?"

Tang Yanxiu also watched it for a long time, tiger, he really hasn't raised it, but there are some powerful people who raise these things, but they start raising them at such a young age......

"If you like it, keep it!"

Shen Ning had seen tigers in the zoo before, he thought, when he was young, he simply raised them as cats, and when he was older, he simply threw them into the space, anyway, he didn't know how wide the space was, since people could stay in it, then animals should be fine.

took out the kettle, poured a little water into the palm of his hand, and brought it to the mouth of the little thing, watching it lick and lick it, Shen Ning's heart softened at that time.

Just keep it like that!

Therefore, when the two of them go back, two loads of firewood, plus a little tiger disguised as a cat, for the time being, not counting the psychological shadow area of the little tiger who knew that he had been disguised as a cat when he grew up, at least Shen Ning's mood was still very good.
