Although the small courtyard rented by the Qin family is not small, it cannot support the prosperity of the Qin family. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Needless to say, the main landlord's house was meant to be reserved for the Venerable Master's residence, and most of the food was placed here. Later, after several discussions with the Qin brothers, they decided to leave the main house and the west house and a wing room for the men in the family to lay on the floor, and the other side room was moved into two beds and some cages, which were just put together for the women and children of the family to live in.

In this way, it is inconvenient for Qin Lianbao to enter the house. helped Luo hold the peppercorns steady, rubbed her little ears, patted the shoulder of the eldest daughter Fennel, and told his wife and daughter to rest early.

With her daughters by her side, Luo Shi couldn't open his mouth if he had the heart to tell him, so he could only tell Qin Lianbao to go back and rest quickly.

Seeing his wife and daughter enter the house, and the lights and candles were lit, Qin Lianbao turned around and turned back to the West House, but he was not in a hurry to catch up on sleep. As he expected, there were knocks on the door one after another, but the family members came back one after another.

The wind and rain come and go, and they are all tired for more than a day, and they can't hold on. Rao is Qin's father, and he also rested early.

Only the four brothers of the Qin family sat up and whispered together, but they still did not sleep.

……

Qin Lianfeng was lying on the ground on his side, although he was very sleepy, his eyelids were also drooping, and he nodded like pounding garlic, but his mind was extremely clear, and he couldn't fall asleep for a long time.

At only fifteen years old, he has always had his father and brother in front of him, but in fact, he does not really understand that the series of accidents that happened during the day today are far beyond the scope of what he can bear.

Although he survived step by step, the impact was even more indigestible, and even with the arrival of darkness at night, it was even more entangled with him like wisps.

Excited, excited, but empty, afraid...... All kinds of emotions came one after another, and he had a sense of instability that he had never felt before.

Again and again, the sound of drums passed through the rain curtain and the urn sounded in my ears. Unable to sleep anymore, Qin Lianfeng simply turned over and sat up, and joined the brothers' whispering discussions with sleepy eyes.

Qin Lianhu, who was sitting cross-legged on the side, glanced at Qin Lianfeng, whose eyes were red, and didn't say anything, scooped up the quilt and put it on his body, and continued to listen to Qin Lianxiong.

Qin Lianxiong laughed, looked at Qin Lianfeng and quipped: "Old Five, why don't you sleep with Chuan Gen Chuan Kai?" ”

As soon as Qin Lianfeng heard this, the sleepy look on his face suddenly subsided, but he ignored him angrily.

Qin Lianbao smiled and rubbed his head, Qin Lianxiong didn't tease him anymore when he looked at it, and said with a straight face: "According to me, if Lianxi can barely hold on to it tomorrow, it's best for us to go home again, and then pull the cart of grain out to be serious." ”

In fact, today, not only Qin Lianfeng, but also Qin Lianxiong, who was determined in his first year, also felt a lot.

Especially on the way back from Dujiatang's father-in-law's house, they saw a large family sitting on the edge of the lotus stream and were grief-stricken. Later, after being identified by my brother-in-law, I learned that it was originally a family in the village next door, and I thought that I also went to Chongtang for refuge. Who knew that just out of the village, the ridge of the stream under his feet was hollowed out by the stream, and suddenly collapsed, the wheels were parted, and half a cart of grain boxes and cages were all sent into the lotus stream. The owner jumped down to salvage without thinking about it, he was a man who was proficient in water, and the stream was not turbulent, but he didn't come up after two flutters. The family members on the shore saw that they didn't dare to go into the water anymore, and they couldn't find the rolling hook, so they could only watch the people and things disappear in an instant, and Lianxi returned to its previous calm......

Naturally, I felt uncomfortable, but at this time, I didn't have the time to be compassionate.

Family affairs, daily expenses, food, clothing, housing and transportation, personal contacts, etc., although the father and mother are in charge, they never hide from their sons and daughters-in-law, and they must be informed of major and minor affairs. Qin Lianxiong also knew that because his father and mother had suffered disasters, since he started a family, no matter how difficult it was, there was a rule in the family that must be followed, that is, if God helped, and there was a little surplus in his hands, he would store twenty percent of the grain for the famine year, and every year he would have to come out with Chen Yixin.

The past days were bitter, for the sake of their brothers to become adults, my mother didn't know how much suffering I had suffered. Fortunately, over the years, their brothers have grown up day by day, except for the fifth child, who has not yet been determined, the other four have a skill and can also take charge of themselves, and the first life of the family has become better, and the food storage has become more and more.

In addition, the old man is a person who has gone through things, and he is convinced that no one can be prosperous forever in Hedong and Hexi for thirty years. As a result, the food sold at home is even more limited.

Especially this year, many families with surplus grain are getting higher and higher, and the price of grain is rising day by day, thinking that there will be no store in this village, let alone just selling a small amount, it might as well be a problem. I didn't know that when I opened this opening, I saw a heavy amount of money, and in the end, the wealth was moving, and it was out of control. I never expected that this disaster would be unprecedented, and many people would have no food to take over, and in the end they would have to go back and buy rice to eat. It's just that at this point, it's not the original price.

However, no matter how much the price of grain rises, the family has never sold a grain of grain, so it will naturally not be affected. Today, when I put it in the cellar, I calculated it again, and the food stored at home was almost enough for a large family to eat for two years.

Only came out today, and the silver money, books, medicinal materials, and thick clothes and cotton pants were brought out. A lot of rice and noodles have also been shipped out, but when you calculate it carefully, it won't last long. After all, just like the previous drought, no one knows exactly when the rain will fall.

Qin Lianbao understood what the second brother meant.

The head of the family is already prosperous, and it has been a long time since he has tasted fresh meat and vegetables, so there are some dried meat and pickles left at home, and they have been limited to eat and use for many months. There is no oil and water in the stomach, and the amount of food everyone eats is far better than before. What's more, there are so many half-grown girls in the family, it is the time when they can eat, but no matter how bitter they are, they can't be wronged.

Qin Lianlong also thought this in his heart, there was still some food at home, and once the embankment broke and landslided, he didn't know if he could keep it, so he had to hold it by his side to rest assured.

As soon as Qin Lianfeng heard this, he instantly came to his senses, and he was excited to follow.

The five brothers agreed that the eldest and second would take turns to be on duty tonight, and the rest of them would hurry to sleep. After Ming'er ventilated with her father and mother early in the morning, she rushed home early, the sooner the better.
