Chapter 386: Famine Age Six

Jiuyue recovered some books from the garbage station, but most of them were red treasure books, as well as the chairman's poetry selection, which was already going to crack down on the four old ones in a few years, and it would be bad if you danced something like "Thousand Character Text" and "Hundred Family Names", it would be bad to be dragged out and beaten hard!

Jiuyue was teaching two children to read, and suddenly the door was slammed, Jiuyue opened the door, looked at the village chief who was full of wind and frost, and asked suspiciously, "Village chief?" ”

"It's me, Jiuyue, hurry up and gather at the edge of the field, I see that the wind and snow are very strong, let's quickly take back the sweet potatoes!" The village said anxiously!

"But...... If you have to take it back now, the harvest should be much less! Jiuyue said with a little hesitation!

"It's better to be early, it's better than nothing, the land will freeze in the coming year, and then you won't be able to dig even if you want to, and when spring comes, the sweet potatoes will rot!"

Hearing the words of the village chief, Jiuyue nodded, asked May to take care of the child, and walked to the edge of the field with July, and many villagers gathered at the edge of the field!

After the village chief explained the specific tasks, everyone hurriedly started to do something, and after one or two months, the sweet potatoes grew quite well, and the largest was the size of an adult's fist. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Sweet potatoes are not particularly planted, full of calculations, only a dozen acres, most of them, planted winter wheat, because this must be planted before the snow!

Hundreds of people in the village were busy working together, and before they arrived, the lake water was dug out, dozens of acres of fields, about 70,000 catties of sweet potatoes, Kobe planted some wheat and rice harvested!

Sweet potatoes don't have to be handed over to the state, so this time you distribute them, everyone has a few hundred catties of grain at once, and they are so happy that they can't close their mouths!

However, some people also want good sweet potato seedlings, this thing is ground and mixed with coarse grains, which is also edible!

That night, the whole village was filled with the aroma of sweet potatoes, and Jiuyue also boiled all the sweet potatoes, because these sweet potatoes had just been dug up, and the moisture was still very large.

So Jiuyue made them well, cut them into slices, put them on the kang, baked them slowly, and dried them to dry!

The dried sweet potatoes are yellow in color, very meaty in the mouth, and slightly sweet, very popular with children, and after eating, they are very full!

The snow was fine, and Jiuyue harvested all the cabbage and radishes in the field, salted them, and then closed them and put them in the cellar!

Because of the sweet potato, there is a trace of joy in the village, every time Jiuyue walks from the village, there are women who greet her lively, and it is enough to see that Jiuyue's status is slowly improving!

Jiuyue originally thought that she could sleep lazily on a snowy day, but the village chief suddenly announced that everyone was going to gather at the ancestral hall in the village, and the village chief taught everyone to read the red treasure book, and by the way, they were literate!

So Jiuyue has to brave the cold wind every day, and then come back in the cold wind, fortunately, Jiuyue's body is well recuperated, otherwise, after so many tosses, he would have caught a cold a long time ago!

The heavy snow fell day after day, but there was no sign of stopping, the snow was deep, full forty or fifty centimeters, and the village chief also canceled the literacy class, so that everyone could stay at home quietly!

Even so, Jiuyue has to get up early every day, their house is a mud house, but it can't withstand such a thick snow, so Jiuyue gets up every morning and sweeps the snow off the roof!

Along with the heavy snowfall, there were debt collectors, all of whom were yellow and thin, their eyes were dull, and their bodies were full of life!

The village chief looked at this and sighed deeply, you can't see death without help, right? So put these victims in the ancestral hall, and then convene a meeting of the villagers by the way to discuss how to resettle these victims!

"Hello comrades, as the saying goes, all brothers are brothers in the four seas, and now that brothers and friends are in difficulty, we should stretch out a hand and help out!" The village chief said with a smile!

When the villagers heard these words, they had already exploded, and their faces were full of reluctance!

"Village chief, you know us, let's not talk about other autumn harvest grains, let's just a little bit, let's finally harvest a sweet potato, but we have to share it with others, how can you let us live!"

"Yes, yes, the sweet potatoes I harvested a few days ago are now starting to rot!"

"Our family still takes in relatives and friends, every day there is little soup and little water, there is not enough to eat, village chief, if you want to do good things, do it yourself, anyway, I don't want to do it!"

"Although we have harvested sweet potatoes, we can't even eat them ourselves, how can we help others!"

…………

The sound of chirping echoed throughout the ancestral hall, and the village chief clapped his hands angrily, then looked at Jiuyue and asked, "Comrade Jiuyue, tell me, what do you think?" ”

Jiuyue heard the village chief ask herself, hurriedly came back to her senses, stood up, looked at everyone and said: "Actually, I also understand everyone's thoughts, after all, no one wants to give their life-saving food to others, but you don't want to think about it, people who are about to starve to death, but everything has been done, let's pay a little food, not to mention anything else, at least we can keep the names of some people, and when it comes to the beginning of spring, the mountains are full of wild vegetables, and those people can survive!" ”

After listening to what Jiuyue said, the entire ancestral hall was quiet, and Jiuyue slowly sat down, and the village chief nodded with satisfaction when he heard these words, "Hearing what Comrade Jiuyue said, I also have this idea in my heart, after all, ...... People are really going to die, but they can do everything! ”

"This ...... Village Chief, I agree to donate food, and I'll give it to you later! After one villager spoke, the rest of the villagers were no longer silent, and they agreed one after another, and as for those who disagreed, thinking of the consequences, they couldn't help but agree!

After Jiuyue returned home, she got dozens of catties of coarse grains, some sweet potatoes came out, and a few tattered clothes, Jiuyue came to the ancestral hall and handed them over to the village chief!

The victims had food, although there was a little less, but they could still hold on until the beginning of spring if they saved some food, and the village was stable!

Winter went to spring, six or five years quietly came, the trees on the mountain sent out new shoots, after a few new rains, the wild flowers and weeds began to grow wildly, the village chief looked at these great rivers and mountains, happy even his beard was up, "The disaster has finally passed!" ”

After the beginning of spring, followed by the busy farming, the victims during the period also settled down, with a new household registration, and a new centimeter, Jiuyue sent her two children to school, as for March, Jiuyue could only take him while working!
