Chapter 38 Inventory of Supplies

As soon as Chen Xi's words fell, there was a sudden explosion outside, and the horn was endless.

"Mother-in-law, it's been ringing outside this morning, what are you doing?"

Chen Xi asked with doubt.

Mrs. Zhang looked up over there, sighed and said: "I heard that the good news of the second young master's move has come back, and he will return soon. ”

are all young masters of the Huang family, and now the eldest son of the big house has entered the business circle, and the second son is a person, and he may not be the person named on the gold list in the future.

Compared with them, think about the third young master who is now helpless.

It's really sad, too.

How can you get by?

Mrs. Zhang thought worriedly, feeling that there was really no way to do it.

Celebrate?

Reward?

Big?!

Chen Xi felt a pain in his heart when he heard this, and remembered that if he was still outside, he might be able to fish in troubled waters and get a few more rewards, but now that he is trapped here, he doesn't say anything, whether he can live, how to live, he doesn't know, the future is bleak.

It is useless to lament too much.

Chen Xi saw that the sky was bright and said: "Okay, I know, it's not early, mother-in-law, you go back first, so as not to be found that you often come and go here, the news outside is all up to you to investigate, the third young master and the east courtyard have me to take care of." ”

She herself has to live, and even so, the third young master can't have an accident.

Seeing her steady and down-to-earth appearance, Mrs. Zhang couldn't help nodding and said: "Hey, the only person I can trust is the magpie girl, and please take care of the third young master, the old woman will really pray for you day and night." ”

Seeing this, Chen Xi sighed in his heart and said, "Mother-in-law, take care of yourself." ”

Mrs. Zhang nodded, wiped her tears, and then limped towards the opposite alley.

When Chen Xi saw her leaving, he bent down to pick up the small burden, untied the burden and saw that it contained snacks, eggs, and a few taels of brown sugar cubes.

This is already the best thing that Mrs. Zhang can get, it is all heart.

Chen Xi carefully put it away.

It's not early.

Chen Xi will turn here today, and she has to go back to see the sky, otherwise the little children in the courtyard should worry about her, so as not to wait for another mess.

The wind was chilling.

Chen Xi braved the cold that drifted by and walked back against the corner of the wall, pondering in his heart.

But as Mrs. Zhang said on the call, her own brain became more and more stiff.

Chen Xi shook his head and swept away the messy thoughts, ready to come step by step.

Now that they are going to be sealed for a month, they have to solve their own food and clothing for this month, and I don't know how long those materials can support them.

Chen Xi thought that when he went back, he needed to take stock of everything clearly, so that he could arrange the follow-up.

When she went around the corner and returned to the courtyard, before she stepped into the door, she heard Fuzhu wailing there: "What to do, what to do, there is still no one outside the gate, why are they all there?" Are we really going to die here? ”

Really.

After all, nothing was found.

I expected it a long time ago.

Hearing this, Chen Xi raised his feet and walked inside, and replied calmly: "Fuzhu is right, at least no one will open the door for us in this month, just now I met Mrs. Zhang..."

The main room is a small hall.

Fuzhu and Yu'er saw that Chen Xi seemed to have found the backbone, and hurriedly leaned over.

Chen Xi briefly talked about the situation.

Lockdown for a month.

They don't have the bottom of their hearts.

When the fish heard it, they couldn't help but worry: "I just turned over those foods, where is enough for a month, it is enough to eat for half a month, and how can I boil for half a month?" ”

Fuzhu cried with a sad face, and said in a hurry: "It's over, Sister Magpie, look, how can there be enough food for the five of us?" ”

The two of them had just had time to move their things over here.

Yu'er didn't wait for Chen Xi to ask and explained: "Sister, the two wings over there can't be occupied, the house is leaking rain, and it's wet everywhere, but fortunately, I'm afraid that the water is covered with oilcloth, otherwise it may be soaked." ”

It's really a house leak that happened to rain overnight.

Everything is piled up,

Chen Xi raised his forehead and said: "You are doing the right thing, move everything to the main house first, let's squeeze it for a few days, and when the weather is clear, I will find something to make up for it." ”

When Fuzhu heard this, she happily hugged Chen Xi's arm, and praised sweetly: "Sister Magpie, will you still repair the roof?" You're too capable! What's there you wouldn't have? It's too reliable, it's too good, then we don't have to be afraid! ”

Yu'er also said happily: "Then I'll help you Sister Magpie then!" ”

Chen Xi nodded when he heard this, looked at the things in the room again, and said, "Have you moved all the things here?" If not, I'll follow you on two more trips, right? ”

Yu'er hurriedly said: "It's all here, it's all here, sister, don't worry about it." ”

Chen Xi bent down and began to rummage through things to tidy up, then said with a smile: "How can you not worry? There's still a lot going on, so let's sort them out and see how long it lasts. ”

Seeing this, Yu'er and Fuzhu said goodbye one after another, and then began to work hard to classify.

Chen Xi directly asked Fuzhu to be responsible for sorting out the fabrics, the fish to sort out the odds, and she herself sorted out the grain, and finally everyone added it together.

Finally finished.

There are a total of nine pieces of cloth, one of the four of them, and the remaining five are all from the third young master, a set of new tailoring tools, five baskets of high-grade charcoal, and a silver fox cloak.

The staple food is 15 catties of polished rice, 10 catties of white flour, and 30 catties of coarse grain noodles.

The seasoning is one pound of coarse salt, one pound of fine salt, three pounds of brown sugar, half a pound of balsamic vinegar, two pounds of rapeseed oil, one pound of sauce, two pounds of rice wine, and two pounds of ginger and garlic.

There are three catties of pork belly, two Luhua chickens, a big black fish, twenty catties of bacon, sausages, and pork ribs, and a rabbit.

The vegetables are a large pumpkin of five or six catties, seven or eight large white radish, six Chinese cabbage, two lotus roots, and the rest are some green leafy vegetables.

Chen Xi calculated and found that if they wanted to eat enough, it was indeed only enough for them to eat for half a month, but if they saved some, they could barely last for a month.

But then you will become malnourished and physically exhausted like the third young master.

If others bully again, they can only let others bully.

I don't have the strength after all.

Chen Xi felt that it was a very insecure thing to have no combat effectiveness, so he had to eat enough, and only when he was full could he have the strength to deal with other things.

So she patted and said: "It's not too much, but it's not too little, let's do it!" Let's not be too saving, we should be full of food, where does the strength come from if people don't eat enough? As long as you don't waste it, you can think about the rest of the things when you have the stamina! ”

Yu'er and Fuzhu both listened to Chen Xi's words, and they felt very reasonable when they heard her say this.
