Chapter 17 A Two-Day Tour of the Countryside
"Hey, hey, what are you doing here?" Bai Lin saw the knife around his neck and the unfamiliar clothes on these people in front of him, and his feet were frightened.
Li Muchen bowed her head, because she knew that for others at this time, it was definitely not a local resident who appeared here in a strange costume like them.
Although the clothes on their bodies were a little dirty, they could still be seen at a glance that they were fine silk.
A few of them were taken to the small pergola just now, and the strange costumes of the four of them suddenly attracted the attention of the surroundings, and those peasants did not have fear on their faces when they saw them, but there was a trace of disgust in their eyes? No, it can't be said to be disgust, but rather to exclusion.
"You newcomers, no matter where you came from, if you come here and don't work, you won't have anything to eat."
The man who took the lead in speaking was wearing the same 85-style military uniform as the person who brought them here just now, but the man who spoke in front of him was a little older, with slightly dark skin, about 1.8 meters, and it was not wrong to describe him as skinny.
"A few of you will divide the meal first, and then you will work in the fields after eating."
After the man finished speaking, he turned around and limped into the distance.
Li Muchen looked at this old man, and she always thought of her grandfather's generation.
When she was in a daze, Kong Chengxi had already helped her bring the bowl, a ceramic bowl about five centimeters wide, and there were several gaps on the edge of the bowl.
Several of them lined up, and because the weather was very hot and there were many people, there was a foul smell of sweat in the air.
Bai Lin looked like she was about to cry from just now.
After about ten minutes of waiting in line, it was their turn.
"Next."
After being called, Li Muchen stepped forward with a broken bowl.
"Little girl, look at you so thin, give you a little more."
The aunt who shared the meal smiled very warmly and gave her some more in her bowl. Looking at the porridge that has been right, no, it is said that the porridge is a little excessive, because these are not even porridge, let alone porridge?
Li Muchen held the bowl: "Thank you, auntie." ”
In less than half an hour, several people will have a small bowl in their hands, one person in the east and one person in the west.
At first, she thought that the people were sitting in the shade, but when she looked closely, she realized that they were holding the rice soup in their hands and picking some grass roots on the ground to serve as their staple food.
For some reason, Li Muchen's heart twitched, and his nose soured when he thought of his previous waste. In order not to be discovered by the empty city, she walked far away with the bowl.
"Grandpa? Why don't you go there and eat porridge? ”
As she walked, she came to the place where the old man had been sitting, and saw him sitting by the river and fishing with a bamboo. There is a thin thread at one end of the bamboo, and the other end of the line should be tied to the bait.
"Kid, how did you get here?" The old man turned around, held the fishing rod in his left hand, and put his hand in his arms.
But the sharp-eyed Li Muchen saw at a glance that it was a pitch-black thing, she couldn't see it clearly, but she could be sure that it wasn't eating like a belt?
Looking at the old man's protruding cheekbones, Li Muchen wished that he would travel to the 21st world to bring them this food, but this obviously didn't work. Let's not say whether they can go back, and even if they do, they are not sure if they can come back again.
"Grandpa, I think this large field is the scene after harvesting, but it shouldn't be harvest season yet."
She was curious from just now, because looking at the surroundings and when they crossed, it was autumn at most, and the general harvest would be after the Mid-Autumn Festival in August.
In addition, it is surrounded by mountains and rivers on the left and right, but there is no vegetable growing in the land developed in the mountains.
