Chapter 241: Life Is Really Hard
When the men returned to the room, the dozens of men in the courtyard began to continue their previous work of chopping wood and burning bricks and building high walls.
The matter of building the fence cannot be stopped.
They had to hurry up and build the wall. And on the wall, there are some mechanisms to be made.
Bears in winter are still particularly fierce. And they are tall, and they have a lot of strength in their hands.
If a bear climbs over the fence and breaks into the house, it will definitely cause casualties.
All people don't want to die, and they don't want the people around them to die.
Because in this year, there is great power in numbers. All people have to be tightly bound together.
When there are more people and live together, safety is guaranteed. The chances of survival will also be better.
Although the men of the Wu family have selfish intentions, they are not confused when it comes to big issues.
They know that they have to live under the same roof no matter what time they are in.
The whole family is together, so they are not easy to be bullied by people outside.
Wu Hongsheng took his children and did things in full swing.
It didn't take long for them to feel sweat all over their bodies.
After Wu Hongsheng was sweating profusely, he directly took off the clothes on it.
As a result of the long hours of work, his skin is still bronzed.
Even if he wrapped himself tightly with clothes, and he had been wrapped for more than two months, Wu Hongsheng's skin did not become white at all.
Wu Hongsheng still has a lot of tools in his hands.
For example, an iron sledgehammer.
Wu Hongsheng and the children are ready to make a strong iron door.
The wooden door at the head of the house, he didn't feel very strong. It's also not safe.
Because the bears are very hungry in winter, their strength is very great.
Especially their big mouths, which have a very strong bite ability.
They like to bite wood.
Including those Tigers.
They're very bounced.
Wu Hongsheng remembers that more than 20 years ago, he went hunting tigers with a group of hunters. He saw the tigress he was tracking with his own eyes, and she jumped almost five meters high.
Wu Hongsheng almost killed her at that time. It's a pity that she jumped too high. So much so that she narrowly escaped.
Thinking of the past, Wu Hongsheng couldn't help but open his mouth and told everyone around him.
"Let's hurry!"
"This time waits for no one. When the weather gets really cold, we can't build the walls that we want to build higher. ”
Because every day when it gets cold, the soil on the ground will be frozen.
After the soil on the ground was frozen, they wanted to burn it into adobe bricks, and they wanted to build it into a wall, which was really difficult.
Hearing Wu Hongsheng's urging, after all the men said yes, they hurriedly sped up the yes in their hands.
When these people are doing things, they make a clanging sound. The women of the family started to make breakfast over there.
Before Wu Guifang went out, he looked at his watch.
I found that the time was only past six o'clock.
At six o'clock in the morning, they got up and went to work. Wu Guifang felt that these people were really working hard to survive.
Due to the special situation in recent times, the head of the family originally had to cook their own food. However, Wu Guifang suggested that the women in the family should take out all the food they should eat at home, and then they would cook it directly into a big pot of porridge.
That is, the legendary wild vegetable paste.
After everyone heard this, they were not reluctant and did not raise objections.
Because everyone has a spectrum in their hearts.
Today, as long as the mother-in-law cooks, then they can take advantage.
Because every time my mother-in-law cooks, she puts oil and salt.
Whatever she cooks, she'll put it. It's basically become a habit for her.
In the ancient countryside where the conditions were not good, firewood, rice, oil and salt were all major events in life.
Including eating meat.
The vast majority of rural people, almost 99 percent of rural people, eat meat only once a year.
That is, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, their whole family will buy one, two, two, or half a catty of meat for everyone to taste.
A little bit of meat, that's a really good thing.
Including eating oil, too.
Where did the ancient rural people have rapeseed oil, tea seed oil, sesame oil and other good oils to eat?
In ancient times, the vast majority of rural people used rice to cook with oil.
It is also commonly known as rice oil.
In areas where rice is produced, you can eat some rice oil. And in the rural areas where wheat is produced, they can't even eat rice oil.
In their normal days, they eat mushy vegetables boiled in water every day.
If you don't put salt, it won't taste good.
During the busy farming season, they will eat some sticky vegetables.
In their spare time, they eat thin soup that can almost be seen at the bottom of the bowl.
In ancient times, in economically underdeveloped areas, the life of peasants was still quite miserable.
Although the Wu family did not reach that level, Wu Guifang always subconsciously felt in her heart that they were almost there.
Since Wu Guifang crossed over, she has deeply realized that she herself used to be in the midst of happiness and did not know happiness.
When she didn't cross over, she was basically able to eat meat every day.
Even if the price of pork has risen, Wu Guifang can still eat meat every day when she is at home. Not to mention when the price of pork has come back down.
Wu Guifang ate meat every day at that time.
Like duck, beef, lamb, pork, and chicken, she also has two heads in three days.
As for eggs, milk, honey, and some other things, Wu Guifang often buys them for herself.
As long as Wu Guifang thinks about it now, he feels that his previous life was really very happy.
It's just that when she was at that time, she always regarded the happiness that was everywhere in front of her as normal.
After running to such an ancient society with little food and clothing, she realized that she had made a lot of mistakes in the past.
Wu Guifang poured oil into the pot while constantly recalling her past life.
Quite possibly,...... People are always like that.
Only when you lose do you know how to cherish.
Now there is no regret medicine to take, and Wu Guifang knows that she can't go back to the past, so after she sighed helplessly, she took a spatula and stir-fried pickles there.
This pickle can't be done without oil.
Pickles are not oiled, and they are really not delicious.
Shriveled and oilless pickles, when they are put in their mouths, Wu Guifang always feels that she can't swallow them.
In addition, she felt that every time she ate that kind of pickles without oil, her stomach hurt a little.
Wu Guifang To this day, she is actually a little unbearable, this era is so harsh, such a difficult environment.
It's really not easy to live here.
In ancient times, the social productive forces were so extremely low.
The peasants have worked hard for a year, but they have not been able to fill their stomachs in a real sense.
