Chapter 7 The Leaky House

Tonight can only be like this, Qin Mo took a bite of the hard nest in his hand, the taste is really very bad, the rice bran is too rough, chewing in the mouth except for a mouth full of slag, it is really difficult to swallow, but mixed with a small amount of cornmeal, can barely swallow.

His stomach was so hungry that Qin Mo finally choked the nest head in his hand, and only then did he look up to see the fragrance of his fingers that was still licking not far away.

Obviously, the little girl is still not full, but what can she do, now in this famine year, she has just crossed over, and many things can't be done, so she can't do it, so she can only be wronged first.

Xiangxiang, are you full, bring the bowl to me to wash when you're done-

Qin Mo sat on the stone ground on this side, with his brown earthen bowl at his legs and feet, and then shouted at Xiangxiang not far from the other side.

Xiangxiang heard Qin Mo's voice and immediately turned her head to look over here, stood up, and wiped the saliva licked from her fingers on herself.

Then she held the big earthen bowl as big as her face, and then walked over to this side with a long breath step by step.

Sister... The little girl clumsily gave the bowl against her stomach to Qin Mo, and the belly that had eaten now disappeared a lot, not like the bulging little belly when she just woke up at noon, Qin Mo suddenly realized that the child's belly was bulging before, not because of eating, but because he hadn't eaten for too long, so the edema that floated up, especially for children, had nothing to eat, but the stomach would bulge very badly, just because it was edema.

Thinking of this, Qin Mo's nose soured again.

The little voice sounded very well-behaved and obedient, Qin Mo took the fragrant bowl, carried the jar of cooking wild vegetables to the bottom of the stone jar and scooped out the water inside and washed it.

It was already dark.

Qin Mofu put the bowl next to the small stove at the door, together with the wooden spoon, all the cooking utensils were put together, carefully collected, if this set of things was smashed, their cooking tools would be gone, and it would be impossible to buy a new set, according to the current conditions, at that time, they would not even be able to eat hot food.

It's cold and the night is dark.

After eating a meal, it was dark and could only be touched with your hands while borrowing light.

Sitting on the hay on the ground, looking up to see the holes in the roof, listening to the sound of the wind whirring outside around the mud wall, bursts and moments, as if the whole house was trembling.

I was afraid that the roof would suddenly fall down, and he would sit on the pile of hay for a long time, but Qin Mo's eyes were so wide that he didn't dare to sleep, and he looked out through the hole in the roof and saw a small round piece of sky, although it was dark, there were no stars and no moon.

Sister...

Xiangxiang's little feet rested on her thin legs. As soon as Qin Mo turned his head, he saw those big pure eyes as bright as stars, looking at her.

Xiangxiang has a round head, round eyes, and a good nose, which makes the whole little face look a little round, but every time she is stunned, she is silly, and she is very cute.

Qin Mo saw that the sackcloth on her body was only against her little belly, and the pants on her legs were even shorter.

There was only this pile of hay in the house, and the bed board was too cold to sleep.

Qin Mo turned his head, put one hand around Xiangxiang's shoulder, and asked softly.

Cold!

While Xiangxiang nodded silently, her body turned to the side of Qin Mo again.

In fact, Qin Mo didn't know what season this time and space was now.

Although the wind is cold and the air is cold, it can still be tolerated.

Even if you wear this bit of clothing, you don't subconsciously feel the need to burn a fire to keep warm, and when you think about it, it should still be summer.

Summer just coincides with the rainstorms.

This bed can't compare to Simmons at home, the soft Korean leather bed, and there is a tatami mat next to the bed.

Now, for Qin Mo, it is obviously a day's distance, but those seem to be the memories of his previous life.

Her subconscious real cognition, that kind of life, is indeed impossible to go back.

And now, she still has this little pity to take care of, and she really can't bear to leave her and go back.

Wet dust, yellow mud, rain falling from the roof from time to time around her, relying on Xiangxiang who moved towards her from time to time because of cold sleep, although she was not Xiangxiang's own sister in her soul, but Xiangxiang only regarded her as her own sister, so she always relied on her and trusted her, so she just wanted to lean over to her in her sleep to keep warm, and felt that her own sister would not dislike herself, Qin Mo looked at the hole in the roof, looked at it, and after a while, he put one hand on Xiangxiang's waist and slept on the haystack on the dirt floor.

Not long after, because I was too sleepy, my eyelids fought, and I couldn't bear it and fell asleep...

slept until dawn, and when Qin Mo woke up, the light leaking through the hole in the roof pierced his eyes, and when he opened his eyes, he found that the sky was already bright.

I didn't have time, and I didn't know how many o'clock it was, but I found that Xiangxiang next to me was still asleep, and the sound of even breathing showed peace from the heart.

Qin Mo gently removed the hand that was on her head.

The movements were gentle, for fear of waking her up.

There is one more thing to do in a hurry, which is what I didn't finish yesterday.

I just don't know when it is, whether anyone will find those ground fungus, whether anyone will know that it can be eaten and be removed first.

Qin Mo was just flustered, and he didn't have time to wash his face after getting up, so he ran all the way to Tiankan.

Seeing that it was already early in the morning, I could see that there were already many farmers working in their fields, some digging with hoes, and some carrying water to irrigate the land.

It had just rained, and finally there was water.

This Chishui Village is not good at anything, except that the fields under this mountain are very flat, and even some large pieces are connected, if the water source is enough, this is really a good village, probably this is the most basic reason why the people of Chishui Village are still willing to stay here and farm.
