Chapter 119: The house is running out of water
"Miao Miao, I'...... Did you say the wrong thing? ”
looked at Xue Miaomiao directly, and seeing that her face was a little wrong, Zhao Han chuckled in his heart, and secretly said badly.
"Nope."
Coughing lightly, the depressed Xue Miaomiao reined in her thoughts, heard Zhao Han's words, raised her eyebrows, shook her head lightly, and chuckled away from the topic: "I'll go get some vegetables." ”
Eat with two mouths, now the weather is hot, and the famine has just passed, there should be no fresh vegetables to sell in the county, Mu Qingfeng sent some dry goods, but I don't worry about it going bad, but I eat it every day, and it is easy to get tired.
In the past few days, she has not been able to walk too far, unable to go to the county seat to see the situation, and she can't figure out the situation in the county seat.
I heard that the county next door to Nanyang County was built near the river, the river transportation industry was quite developed, and when there was a famine, the impact over there was relatively small, not as tragic as Nanyang County, and there were a large number of starving people starving to death, forcing the former county magistrate to flee.
It is said that Nanyang County is close to it, and the disaster will not be so serious, but the female businessmen who can't stand the disaster money and make disaster money are crazy to raise prices, and brown rice has risen to 300 yuan a catty, and money may not be able to buy it.
There is also a serious problem, so that the hungry people in Nanyang County are not afraid to come here to buy food.
It is said that it is the next county town, but there is a day's journey between the two county seats.
Many people went there to buy brown rice with great difficulty, but on the way back, they were frantically robbed by hungry people lurking on the side of the road.
On more than one occasion, hungry people who went out to buy brown rice were beaten to death in the middle of the road, leaving them with no personal wealth.
Over time, even if the hungry people in Nanyang County are hungry, they dare not come to such a far away place to buy food, and they are willing to gnaw on the bark and grass roots to survive, rather than lose their lives for no reason.
Now it's different, the locust plague has passed, the imperial court has sent officials to appease the victims, and all kinds of supplies will be transported one after another.
The chaotic order gradually returned, and if I wanted to go there again, I wouldn't have to worry about something bad like that happening again.
Xue Miaomiao wants to develop her own career, and she has to learn all kinds of information in detail before she can decide which direction to start the first step of her career.
She has limited funds, so she doesn't dare to come nonsense.
"Where are you going?"
After taking some eggplant skin, dried beans or something of dried vegetables, Xue Miaomiao saw Zhao Han holding two buckets and preparing to go out, the corners of his eyes picked uncontrollably, and opened his mouth to stop his movements.
Are you kidding!
With such a small body, it would be good to be able to carry a bucket of water, and he also learned to carry water, he was afraid that he had some misunderstanding of himself!
"There's not much water in the tank at home, I'm going to pick some back."
Facing the pair of suspicious eyes, a trace of embarrassment flashed in Zhao Han's eyes, his face was blushing, and he replied embarrassedly.
"One bucket is enough, two buckets of water is not light, you can't afford it."
Seeing that he was about to leave again, Xue Miaomiao rolled her eyes speechlessly, and once again stopped him from coming nonsense.
One wounded person in this family is enough, there is no need for another one.
It's not fun to break your foot, flash your waist or something.
"Oh."
Zhao Han really didn't know anything about these jobs, he just saw that his father took two buckets every time he went out to fetch water, so when he saw that there was not much clean water in Miao Miao's water tank, he almost didn't think about it, so he went out with two buckets.
"I ...... I'll be back soon! ”。
At this time, when I heard Miao Miao's reminder, I became more and more embarrassed, put down a bucket and a flat burden, dropped a word, and ran away without looking back......
