Chapter 19: Praying for Rain 1
We don't have any rice in our house.
Su Mushi's words were like a wake-up call, which directly woke up Su Wenqing.
Due to the drought, for three months, there were still hundreds of households in Xishui Township, but at this time there were only about 50 households left. Those villagers who have left have taken refuge, as well as relatives who have taken refuge.
And their family, because of the Su family, and Su Wengan did not plan to rely on the Su family anymore after leaving the Su family, to be self-reliant and self-reliant.
But they didn't expect that a rare drought would make their family live so hard.
"It's me who is useless and makes you suffer!"
Su Wenqing's face became a little pale, but he still sadly admitted that his incompetence would make his wife and children hungry.
Su Mushi shook his head, "Don't blame yourself, I married you and I have no regrets." It's time for us to rest, let's go to town tomorrow. ”
"Lady, we don't have any money. When I go to town, I can only see if the river clam can be sold for money. ”
Su Wenqing smiled bitterly, he really couldn't even take out a copper plate, and there was no way to do it.
Su Mushi smiled at him, "Have you forgotten your husband?" I have kept the pair of fine purple jade bracelets you gave me. ”
"I remember, it was the dowry I gave you back then."
When Su Wenqing heard this, his tone became a little heavy.
Su Mushi's face was gentle, "Yes. I decided to pawn it. ”
"No way!"
"Husband, you don't need to persuade me anymore, I've already decided."
Su Mushi looked serious, and his tone did not back down, "The purple jade bracelet is only a temporary pawn, as long as we have money in the future, we can redeem it." In other words, even if it can't be redeemed, it means that it has nothing to do with me. However, I know my husband's affection for me. As long as we are a family, neatly together, and suffer for a short time, this is nothing. ”
His wife's generosity and tolerance made Su Wenqing even more self-reproachful.
The conversation between their husband and wife made the atmosphere of the room dull.
The problem in front of them is not so easy to overcome.
If it doesn't rain, the plants in the ground won't have a chance to live.
Su Qianying frowned, and said to them: "Father, mother, if you have a little money tomorrow, you can buy some vegetable seeds." I'll plant it! Now there is no food anywhere, let's not buy rice, rice is expensive. If you can, buy some flour, wheat, corn, etc., which will also fill your stomach. ”
"Okay."
Su Mushi nodded.
After the family of five finished eating, they went back to the house to rest.
Su Qianying looked at this dilapidated home, and couldn't help but sigh a little, the family is really poor.
While the eldest sister and younger brother were asleep, she shot again, lit the sleeping hole of the two of them, and once again entered the fairy copper space.
In the space, the land is wide and wide.
In this plum garden alone, an isolated magic circle has been placed.
Su Qianying walked to the front of the bamboo house, stretched out her hand and knocked on the door, "Master! Are you there? ”
She raised her voice, but she didn't hear a response.
Master is not there?
Didn't he say that he would call him if there was anything?
He's not here, so where did he go?
Su Qianying looked puzzled, but she still reached out and pushed open the bamboo door and walked in. The placement in the bamboo room is very simple, but it gives it an elegant temperament. On the west-facing wall, there are bookshelves.
There are many book collections on the shelves, and Su Qianying is also unceremonious, and approaches directly, she wants to know how to pray for rain, at least let her father and mother see the hope of living.
