Chapter 184: The Cellar
"Tomorrow I'll go live some mud and paint it thicker." Saburo spoke, his gaze fixed on the opposite wall, not daring to meet her eyes.
"Just let the third brother live a little mud, it's okay." Shiro comforted gently.
In fact, as soon as the third aunt came today, there was a period of chaos, she really didn't have a good word with them, and they didn't dare to look at her with their eyes, but now there was finally no interference, and they could say a few words quietly with her.
The words fell, and there was a brief silence.
"The third aunt has always taken good care of us, and it is inevitable that they will be a little inconvenient to live here now, so you can take care of it more."
Shiro's slightly lowered voice suddenly sounded, and his slightly deep voice was particularly beautiful in the silent night, like a pot of heart-warming red wine, which was intoxicating.
Lu Ling lost her mind slightly, her beautiful face was a little indulgent, and then she quickly came back to her senses, and said with a smile: "They came to the house to be lively, I have always been a woman in the house, and now that someone is with me, I can't be happy." ”
"That'll be fine." In fact, it was me and the third brother who were inconvenient.
Shiro didn't come out of the latter sentence, and sighed in his heart.
When the third aunt is not there, they can also take advantage of her inattention to look at her a few more times to comfort the lovesickness, now that there are others, they have to be cautious, those emotions that should not be there can only be hidden in their hearts, not discovered by others, he has no confidence not to be discovered, let alone the third brother.
At the juncture of their words, Saburo kept his head down and sat silently, and the whole person exuded a low pressure, which made it impossible to ignore, but he didn't dare to approach.
Lu Ling glanced at him with moist eyes, then moved her gaze to Shiro, and remembered the second thing she had come, "Now that the weather is getting colder and colder, what do you have to prepare for winter at home, I think we should prepare as soon as possible." ”
This is what should be prepared, prepare as soon as possible, and have a solid heart for the winter, that is, Lu Ling's thoughts, so that the Lin family lived a warm and warm winter in the winter when everyone else was hungry and cold, of course, this is a later story.
"No matter how prepared we are now, I don't know when the war will end, and if it drags on until winter, it is inevitable that there will be a shortage of food and a rise in prices." Shiro is a person who has gone to school, and he has a deeper understanding of some things than ordinary farmers.
Although the country in the east is rich, rich in products, is the head of the three major countries, but that is still the national situation ten years ago, now the national system has long been decayed, otherwise there is no war, why the tax has become more and more strong in recent years, seventy percent of the harvest in an acre of land has been given to the government, bandits and robbers are rampant all over the country, those bandits and robbers who are born to do this robbery, are also forced out by taxes and rents for many years, this is the most direct proof of the recession, coinciding with this year and the war with the Nancang country, this winter will definitely not be good.
"I'm afraid of this, besides, I think we can dig a cellar to store food, in case of an emergency like the last time the bandits came, we can all hide under the tunnel, food and people are safe."
There must be a lot of food stored in the winter, if it is placed in the kitchen, it is afraid of being remembered, such as Mrs. Lin's people, Lin Erping is not here this year, there are only three lazy people at home, if they really don't have to eat in winter, they will definitely come here to make trouble, and the food they store must have to be given, so it is best to put it in a place where they can't see it, so she thought of the cellar.
"Cellar?" Shiro looked at her in surprise, interested in the fresh words that came out of her mouth, and every time her new words would give him a different surprise, he believed that this time was the same.
Lu Ling smiled and nodded, then squatted down and drew on the ground, even San Lang, who had been hanging his head, looked at the ground curiously at the moment, and when he saw the outline she had drawn, a flash of light flashed in his eyes.
He couldn't hide his excitement: "Isn't it very similar to your trap?" The cellar is to enlarge the trap and dig deeper. ”
Shiro turned his head and looked at San Lang with an excited face in surprise, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, the third brother's brain was really fast, and he still figured out that he had already explained it, but whether it was like him or not, it depended on Lu Ling.
Lu Ling heard San Lang's voice, and the hand on the ground stiffened slightly, not wanting Shiro to notice the strangeness between her and San Lang, raised his eyes and glanced at him lightly, lowered his head and said: "It's almost like that, we first need to choose a location as the entrance to the cellar, and then determine that the cellar is large, this project is not good, try to know it ourselves, so we can only dig the cellar ourselves." ”
Hearing Lu Ling's words, Shiro also had a score in his heart, and understood that this matter must be kept secret, and it was essential to do it himself, "Then how big do we need to dig?" ”
It was really difficult for him to imagine for a while how big it was to hide people and put grain.
Lu Ling thought about it, and felt that people must be able to enter and exit normally, although the larger the area, the better, but after all, it will be winter soon, and it will take time to dig too much, so he said: "The depth is fifteen feet, the length and width of the entrance are three feet, and the length and width of the bottom are twelve feet." ”
Although the cellar is not large, it is not, and it is no problem to hide from a few people, and it takes less time, so it will definitely be completed before winter.
"The cellar is dug under the firewood room, and the entrance is so hidden."
Saburo opened his mouth, and he also felt that this cellar must exist, and it must exist in a very well hidden place, this place is none other than the firewood house, all of which are discarded furniture, and you can see the bottom at a glance, which is easy for people to ignore and ignore.
"The firewood room is a good choice." Shiro nodded in agreement, placed elsewhere, covering the entrance is a big problem, and the firewood room is the most secret.
"Okay, then this matter is so decided, we don't want to buy more food at one time, it is easy to attract the attention of others, and it will definitely be very troublesome to spread to Mrs. Lin, we have been going to the town recently with a basket on our backs, and everyone will buy some, and we will definitely be able to buy enough in winter." Lu Ling thought of Mrs. Lin's head, frowning slightly, extremely helpless.
Although the relationship was severed, the three really didn't have anything to eat, and they definitely had to take care of it.
"Okay, I'll sum up the things that need to be prepared with the third brother at night, and we'll start preparing after harvesting the corn, and a month should be enough to dig the cellar, right?" Shiro.
A month later, the weather was really cold, and they had to hurry up to get it right, otherwise where would the food they bought go?
"I'm not sure about this, after all, there are few of us, but when the time comes, it will definitely be no problem to dig it out in a month and put food, and it will be warm in winter and cool in summer." Lu Ling smiled.
Then the three of them had another conversation, Lu Ling yawned before going back to her room, today was too exciting, as soon as she lay on the bed, she couldn't fall asleep over and over.
At noon, Saburo confessed to her, and in the afternoon the third aunt was kicked out, and then the raw eyes could be still for a while, and finally had a conversation with the owner of this body...... Four things in one day, this ordinary peasant woman's life is still so exciting.
She couldn't sleep here, and Saburo and Shiro didn't feel sleepy over there.
"What did you do to her today?" Shiro's words rang out in the darkness.
