Chapter 66: Ambilight
Dai Shuanglin wanted to say that none of those people were adult and strong, all of them were old, weak, women and children.
And the reason why this problem that is easy to find will be ignored is most likely caused by a lack of food, which is not a famine year is better than a famine year, I am afraid that no one wants to raise an extra mouthful of people to eat more food.
It is precisely because of this that Dai Xiangen did not relax after listening to Sister Lin's words, whether there is a strong man or not, can women and children still skip eating?
Well, he'd better think about how to get it.
Dai Xiangen didn't think too much about it, but Sun didn't think so, clapped his hands and said, "Let's go, go out and have a look, ask things clearly, and then talk about anything else." ”
Everyone outside was waiting anxiously, and those who watched the excitement were inexplicably restless under the intentional provocation of the Li brothers, only to hear Li Deshan shouting there: "It is said that the chief of the new pavilion is kind and kind, and this day he will see the real chapter." ”
No one responded to this, but it is unknown what everyone thought in their hearts.
"It's out, it's out."
As Dai and Sun walked out, the crowd whispered, and then held their breath to see how Dai Xiangen acted.
"It's a day when the wind is freezing and the ground is even colder, so the old man hurry up" As soon as Dai Xiangen went out, he saw that the person kneeling for the head was an old woman, and guessed that this person helped Sister Lin, so he couldn't help but step forward and help him.
The old woman knelt and refused to get up, shook her head and said: "The elder brother and sister of the master's family have a kind heart to lead us here, and ask the lord to give us a stutter, let me wait and go to other places slowly, so as not to cause trouble to the master......"
"It's easy to say this, get up first, it's not easy for you to come from afar, Sister Lin is going to boil water and cook......" When Dai Xiangen heard that he was passing by, the string that had been tense in his heart finally loosened, and he waved his big hand and ordered Sister Lin.
"Hey" Dai Shuanglin responded with a crisp voice when he heard this, and glanced at the Li brothers in the crowd with scorn, so angry that the Li brothers grinded their teeth, it turned out that this group of things was just passing by, and they tossed in vain.
Dai Shuanglin led Brother Xian back to the house to boil water and cook, Sun Jingli looked at the people one by one, and after verifying Sister Lin's words, she stepped forward to help the old woman who was the leader without any disgust, and the old woman was busy struggling to get up, and she couldn't avoid Sun's support.
Sun was not reluctant, and his good feelings rose to another level.
The people on the side also nodded, fleas, lice and other living creatures on the bodies of people who fled thousands of miles are inevitable, knowing that avoiding people can be seen that the group has a conscience, so the rejection of this group of people is unconsciously much less.
In the house, Dai Shuanglin lit a fire on the two stoves in the middle of the room, and let the pot stove used to boil water for Brother Xian to take care of, and she began to boil porridge with millet, millet porridge warms up the body and nourishes the stomach.
A scoop of millet was washed back and forth in the water several times, and the coarse and fine gravel were scooped out of a pile, Dai Shuanglin put the millet into the pot, and threw a handful of dog persimmons into the pot.
Stirring and stirring the millet porridge to prevent the bottom of the pot from pasting, Dai Shuanglin went to the pickle jar and fished out a few pickle gnocchi, rinsed them with water and shredded them all, and then went to Brother Xian's pot to scoop hot water and soak the pickles in the basin.
At this end, not long after the pot opened, the fragrance of millet wafted in the courtyard of the Dai family, inducing a large group of fasting stomachs to start one after another and sound the gurgling, adults forget it, smelling the fragrance and secretly swallowing a mouthful of liquid, but the children couldn't help but start humming quietly.
Sun couldn't bear to see it, but there was nothing to eat immediately at home, so he could only break the remaining half of the black flour steamed buns in the morning, and a child divided a small piece, and there was food in his mouth, and the children really didn't make a sound, and even the youngest one had a little steamed bun dregs.
Dai Xiangen stood on the street for a while, feeling that people were freezing uncomfortably, so he called a few young men who watched the excitement to go to Dai's haystack and put the grass into their own aisle, and for a while the lively people were no longer just watching the excitement, as if they were close to a lot in an instant.
Everyone was flattered, and pushed again and again before carefully entering the gate of the Dai family, the aisle of the Dai family is also made of blue bricks, as long as the doors on both sides are closed, it is impermeable, and it is stronger than many people's broken houses.
As everyone knows, these people have a bunch of lice and fleas on their bodies, and they must not be allowed to enter the house.
"Second sister, what is this water for?" The water over there had already been boiled, but he didn't know why Dai Shuanglin wanted him to boil the water.
Dai Shuanglin was stirring porridge with a rag and lifting the lid of the pot, and he didn't reply when he heard the words: "Let's put it out and cool it first, and then take it out for them to drink when it's not hot, and you can get some warm water for them to wash their faces and hands." ”
"Oh" Brother Xian moved in response, but when Brother Xian brought the steaming basin to the aisle, a group of people were so frightened that they crowded into the corner, and at the same time looked at a few young men who helped in horror, or the old woman felt that these people were talking and behaving frankly, Dai Xiangen and Sun were even more clear-eyed, so they took the initiative to take the child in their hands to come forward to clean, but that's it, and in the end, there were more than a dozen people who didn't come forward.
The Sun family already knew in his heart, so naturally he would not force these hard-working people, and only let Brother Xian bring a few young men who helped into the house to carry water.
A bowl of hot water in the stomach, these people's faces look a lot better, the old woman is even more red-eyed, don't go out don't know, go out to know, every grass and tree has a master, sometimes want to burn a bowl of hot water is a luxury.
"Auntie, where are you going?" Sun saw that the porridge was not good for a while, and a few young men who helped went out again, so they pulled up with the old woman.
"I'm not afraid of benefactor's jokes, but we don't know where we're going." The old woman held the hot bowl with both hands to keep warm, and said with a little confusion in her words, seeing Sun's doubts, she said again: "Last year, as soon as winter began, we were in a mess, and the men in the family ran out with us at the risk of death, but they were kidnapped halfway through, and even those half-grown boys did not leave one, and a passing young lady said to us, let's go north, the more north the better...... Only the north can save lives. ”
"......" Sun and Dai Xiangen looked at each other, and they both saw the fear in each other's eyes.
"Where are you there?"
"The young lady you're talking to is surnamed Du?"
Just when everyone was sad and shocked, two voices sounded at the same time, one clear and the other crisp, and both voices were imperceptible with a hint of eagerness.
"This ......" the old woman looked at the Sun family with a little embarrassment, Dai Shuanglin she knew, and she was the sister of this family. But who is the handsome young man who walked in from outside? Just looking at the gentle and jade-like demeanor, the old woman boldly guessed that the young man should not be from this family.
"Auntie, it's okay to say, it's all your own family," Sun smiled, beckoning Gu Xiaomin to his side, so as not to attract lice and fleas.
Walking around, Gu Xiaomin's eyebrows raised slightly, and his black eyes could not hide the brilliance of staring at Dai Shuanglin, and the smile on his face could not be hidden.
Dai Shuanglin lowered her eyes, stupid, didn't her mother say that it was all her own family? Don't you want to be so happy!
