After a few days, the price of rice and noodles in various grain shops has risen, and if you take off thousands of catties of rice and flour in your hands, isn't it just as the fifth brother said, and your own family has earned a few taels of silver all of a sudden?

If it weren't for the fact that he didn't have much money in his hand, otherwise, Liu Yiyu would also want to hoard a lot of food in his hands before the price of food rose and make a disaster money.

"It's going to rise so much, fortunately, the eldest sister had the foresight to buy grain as soon as possible and store it for the winter, otherwise if we buy it a few days later, wouldn't it cost us more money." After Liu Li heard Liu Yihao's words, he patted his chest and said in surprise.

"Or is the eldest sister smart and bought food as soon as possible to save a lot of money for our family?" Liu Yihao worships Liu Yiyudao.

"The eldest sister has just come back from the town, so let's eat all the cakes I brought to the town! It's noon now, presumably you're hungry, grandma, you're all hungry, grandma will cook for you."

"Grandma Mo is going to do it, the shopkeeper of Xiangmanlou wrapped twenty white-flour steamed buns for our family, and we ate steamed buns on the way back, aren't we hungry?" At this time, the third sister Liu Yishuang took out a white flour steamed bun wrapped in oiled paper from the back basket and distributed it to a few small ones.

A few small ones got the white flour steamed buns, first closed their eyes and smelled the fragrance of the white flour steamed buns, and then broke them with their little fingers to eat them little by little, as if they were eating the world's delicacies.

After the three small ones ate a little and a half, the eighth sister handed the steamed bun to Liu Li and said, "Mother, keep it for the eighth sister and eat it at night."

"Mine too" "And mine". The seventh brother and the sixth sister didn't eat it either, and handed the steamed buns in their hands to Liu Li's family, asking Liu Li to keep them for the evening to eat.

"Our family's food for the winter this year has also been stored, and there is no worry about eating this year, mother, I also bought fifty pounds of cotton, my mother and grandma are free, first make our winter quilt, and then, our family will make a cotton coat first, my mother should be reluctant to stuff cotton, cotton is not enough, the eldest sister will buy it again, in winter, don't freeze.

Now that the weather is hot, the sixth sister, the seventh brother and the eighth sister don't want to go out into the wild, stay in the bamboo house honestly, and when the time comes, you will suffer from heat stroke, if you are free, pick up more firewood and take it home, keep it for winter, and catch more insects to feed the chickens and chop some wild vegetables, fatten the chickens, and strive to lay an egg every day, you know? Tomorrow, the eldest sister will take the second sister, the third sister, the fourth sister and the fifth brother to the mountain, as long as they see something to eat, they will row home, and now in this world, alas! ”。 Liu Yiyu said in the end, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head, this year's natural disaster, the crops in the water have died of drought, and this winter, I don't know how many families will be separated and their families will be destroyed.

"Eldest sister, we know that we are guaranteed to complete the task."

"Big sister, my mother also knows."

Early in the morning of the second day, the sky was not yet bright, it was more than half of the hour, about four o'clock in the morning, Liu Yiyu's five sisters and brothers got up, and the sisters and brothers discussed it yesterday.

The hottest hours were avoided.

After Liu Yiyu's sister and brother packed up, brought hoes and firewood knives, carried bamboo baskets and put ropes and kettles in them, and prepared everything to go.

Before leaving, Liu Li was afraid that Liu Yiyu's sister and brother would be hungry, so he got up early and baked black flour cakes for Liu Yiyu's sister and brother to take up the mountain to eat.

Liu Yiyu saw that Liu Li's spirit was a little poor, his face was haggard, and from time to time he heard Liu Li's gasping and coughing, Liu Yiyu felt a little sorry for his mother, holding his mother's rough hand and said, "Mother, the eldest sister is young, her body is good, she is not afraid of being tired, her body is not good, don't get up so early in the future, the eldest sister knows that her mother is afraid that her daughter and younger siblings will be hungry, tomorrow, my mother will not get up so early, the eldest sister will take her own pancakes to eat on the mountain, and my mother will rest for a while, don't work hard, in this case, My daughter is distressed".

"It's my mother who doesn't have the ability to make your brothers and sisters suffer." After Liu Li heard his eldest sister's words, he was a little touching, but after thinking that his own children were wronged by himself, Liu Li blamed himself a little.

"In this era of war, it is already good that our family can be together and be able to fill our stomachs, who said that my mother has no ability, my mother's biggest ability is to give birth to several of our sisters and brothers, and my mother will enjoy the happiness of her children in the future." Liu Yiyu hugged Liu Li's thin shoulders, his mother killed her husband, and then her father-in-law, uncle and sister-in-law died.

Liu Li is only in his thirties now, and his appearance looks like he has been more than forty years old, not to mention the rough palms, there are already fine wrinkles on his face, and he has borne too many burdens on his shoulders.

"Mother, what the eldest sister said is that Gorou is very capable, Gorou is diligent and energetic, and you will wait to enjoy Gorou's blessings in the future."

"Okay, my mother is waiting to enjoy the blessings of Goro, you go into the mountains to be careful, eldest sister, you take care of some of your younger siblings, you can't eat anything, just come back, our family has enough to eat in winter today, you are injured, my mother will feel sorry for you." Liu Li touched Liu Yihao's head and said with a smile.

"Okay, the eldest sister knows, the second sister, the third sister, the fourth sister, and the fifth brother let's go." Liu Yiyu nodded and replied, and then went out with his younger siblings.

Now it's July, and there are no wild vegetables on the mountain, wild fruit trees and other things, and they have been picked by the villagers of Shangou Village before the fruits have grown.

Liu Yiyu purposefully led his younger siblings to the direction of the inner mountain, at first, Liu Yisa saw his eldest sister leading his younger siblings to the inner mountain, and asked his eldest sister to stop with some fear.

Liu Yisa saw that the third sister and the fifth brother did not have the slightest objection, but smiled after seeing themselves like this.

"Second sister, now there is no food in the outer mountains to draw home, the eldest sister has been to the inner mountain a few times, the pheasants and hares caught at home and other things, that is, the eldest sister took the third sister and the fifth brother to dig a few traps in the periphery of the inner mountain, and the wild things hunted, as long as we are careful in the periphery of the inner mountain, it is still safe." Liu Yiyu held Liu Yisa's hand and comforted.

The second sister's temperament is like her own mother, gentle and kind, a small jasper type, and she is very taboo about the inner mountain.

A few people who came to the inner mountain, the third sister and the fifth brother, ran straight to the place where they had dug the trap.

However, the two of them were stunned aside, and after Liu Yishuang reacted, he turned his head and beckoned to Liu Yiyu again and again, "Sister, come here, something happened."
