When Village Chief Niu heard this, he couldn't help but hold his breath.

He is the village chief of Niujia Village, and he is very familiar with the village chiefs of several nearby villages, and sometimes discusses things because of spring plowing and autumn harvest.

So I met the grandson of Village Chief Zhang, the child was only seven years old, and he was a cute and clever child, although he was young, he was already very sensible.

I heard that Village Chief Zhang had sent him to the school last year.

Unexpectedly, he died like this.

The village chief of Niu inevitably has a feeling of sadness for the dead rabbit and the fox.

How long can I protect my grandchildren?

Seeing that Village Chief Niu was in a daze, Village Chief Zhang thought that he did not agree, so he knelt down straight and wanted to kowtow to Village Chief Niu.

Niu Xinqiang, the son of the village chief, reacted extremely quickly and grabbed his head.

"Uncle Zhang, don't be like this."

Village Chief Zhang said that he couldn't get up anything, he himself was old, and it was okay to die, but how many years had passed for those young people, those children?

His body seemed to be stuck to the ground, and he gasped and said, "Village Chief Niu, you can do it, and borrow us some food." It doesn't take too much, just let the young people survive. Even if it's a mouthful of rice soup. ”

Village Chief Zhang's body was very weak, it seemed that he hadn't eaten for a long time, and Niu Xinqiang, who was holding him, didn't dare to exert himself at all, so he could only look at Village Chief Niu for help.

The rest of the people saw Village Chief Zhang kneeling down, and they also knelt down.

Around the village, a crowd fell to their knees.

There were a lot of people, but it was very quiet at this time, and even the children who liked to play the most in the past quietly hugged their parents' arms and looked timidly at the village chief.

Jiang Ru stood behind, looking at this scene, his throat was like a stone blocked, so uncomfortable that he wanted to desperately take out food to save people.

However, she soon came to her senses.

She couldn't do that.

If she takes out the food, how can she explain the origin of the food?

She's going to have to figure out how to do it.

Village Chief Niu couldn't bear it, so he opened his eyes and asked Niu Xinqiang to help Village Chief Zhang up.

"Village Chief Zhang, allow us to discuss it."

If nothing really comes out, it's impossible.

So many people, even if they haven't eaten enough for a long time, are desperate enough to make their village feel bad.

What's more, there are more or less in-laws in these villages, so you can't watch them starve to death.

The village chief found many prominent people in the village to discuss, and soon came up with a charter.

Every household donates a little and does what they can.

Jiang Ru got the news and went home to say it.

After Duan Xiaomei found out, she was silent for a while, looked at the grain tank and said worriedly: "Mother, I don't know when the natural disaster will end." This food is not enough for us to eat, and we don't have much for others. ”

Jiang Ru looked at the small half jar of grain left in the grain tank, "Let's donate all of this, we still have newly harvested grain, and we can last for a long time." Besides, it's time for the imperial court to come up with a policy, and it is impossible for the people to starve to death. ”

"Mother, why don't you donate less."

Niu Xinzhang listened, frowned and said: "Xiaomei, since my mother has made a decision, she must have a plan for a long time, so don't talk too much." And those people are so pitiful, don't you want to help them, lady? ”

When Duan Xiaomei heard her husband say the same, she suppressed the uneasiness in her heart, "I know." ”

Duan Xiaomei is also a kind-hearted person.

But she still has two children, her husband is weak, and her mother-in-law is old, which makes her have to think more.

Seeing that she couldn't change the decision of her mother-in-law and husband, she made up her mind that she would eat less in the future, and save some no matter what.

Jiang Ru looked at Niu Xinzhang's performance and raised his eyebrows.

The scumbag son is really a scumbag son, and he is sorry for the well-being of others, and he does it easily. It seemed that he was filial to her and listened to her, but in fact he just felt that I would not let him go hungry no matter what.

It seems that there is still less hardship!

The reason why Jiang Ru is so generous is because she has prepared and hid the grain in a cellar.

But she didn't tell anyone about the existence of these things.

As the only man in the family, the scumbag son has never thought about whether there is enough food since the school has stopped classes, and he does nothing at home every day, only knows how to eat, drink, sleep, and sleep, and occasionally pretends to be a book, and has never considered the question of whether there is enough food.

Jiang Ru packed the grain in a burlap bag, put it in his hand and said, "I'm going to deliver the grain." ”

Niu Xinzhang leaned on the door and waved his hand, "Mother, go and come back quickly." ”

Duan Xiaomei held the child and sent Jiang Ru to the door.

"When I went to deliver food, you didn't open the door at home, you know?" Jiang Ru instructed repeatedly.

Duan Xiaomei nodded, her mother had to tell her like this every time she went out, and she was familiar with it.

"Mother, go and come back quickly."

Jiang Ru knew that the food he gave must be a lot, but he didn't expect it to be twice as much as the rest of the people.

This is what makes it particularly eye-catching.

But at this time, it was impossible to take it back, so he could only pour the grain into the basket provided by the village chief.

Her bag must not be left behind, this burlap bag costs a dozen yuan. They have less than 10 bags at home.

On the way back, Sister Li quietly grabbed her, "Xinzhangniang, what do you think, why did you take so much food out?" You won't eat anymore? ”

Seeing that her face was full of worry, Jiang Rusheng said: "You forget, our family harvests grain earlier than others, and the output is more." And there are only three adults and two children in our family, and we don't eat much, so although we can't eat much, we won't starve to death. ”

"But who knows when this catastrophe will pass?" Sister Li hated iron and noddding her shoulder.

"Yes, I don't know when the weather will get cooler, it's already October, and it hasn't rained yet."

"Don't change the subject with me!" Seeing that she had arrived at her own house, Sister Li dragged her into the house and stood in the shade before speaking.

"Sister Li, you have also seen how miserable those people are, our family is better than others, so if you can help, you can help, so many people, all of them are human lives." Jiang Ru said.

She thought that the food she gave was only half a sack of millet and was not worth much.

But for Sister Li, the millet donated by Jiang Ru is enough for their family to eat for more than ten days.

"Who hasn't tightened their belts?" Sister Li sighed, "Just be generous!" Later, when you are hungry, you will know that it is bitter. ”

Jiang Ru said with a smile: "The imperial court can't ignore us, and after a while, there should be measures in the town." ”

Sister Li shook her head, "There are so many people, where is the imperial court in charge?" Forget it, let's not talk about it, you can go back quickly. ”

Jiang Ru took out a book from his arms and handed it to Sister Li, "This is for Xiao Jiang." No matter what, you can't leave your studies behind. Our new chapter says that Xiao Jiang is a talent, and he can't do anything else now anyway, so it's better to let him read a book and divert his attention, maybe he won't be so hungry. ”

As she spoke, she lowered her head and smiled.
