Chapter 134: Start Again

Dousha held the bowl in both hands and took a sip of soup, then turned his head to look at Lin Guyu, "Mother, aren't we going home?" โ€

"I can't go back for a while." Lin Guyu looked at the bean paste with a smile, and after a while, he said, "Maybe I can go back in the future." โ€

Hearing Lin Guyu say this, Dousha lowered his head, put the bowl in his hand aside, and then said, "Mother, I want to go to school." โ€

Lin Guyu's heart was a little bitter, and Mr. Teaching also came to the top, but there was not much food in their family.

"I'll teach you." Lin Guyu looked at the bean paste with a smile and said, "Go back and bring your book." โ€

"Yes." Dousha listened to Lin Guyu say this, and nodded excitedly.

After washing the dishes and chopsticks, Lin Guyu sat in the house with the bean paste.

At this time, people are worried about whether their stomachs can be full, and it would not be good if she was still so blatant in teaching her children to read.

Now teaching has also become sneaky.

Dousha's memory is exceptionally good, Lin Guyu taught him two or three times, and he almost memorized everything, even what his husband taught him a long time ago.

Looking at the appearance of bean paste, Lin Guyu was very satisfied, if this child was in modern times, he must be a good student.

After a while, Lin Guyu heard someone outside say that the village chief asked all families to go over and discuss together.

All the houses were surrounded by a large circle, and in the middle of the circle was an open space, and all the people were gathered around it.

"Shall we come back later and study again?" Lin Guyu said to the bean paste discussively, "The village chief's grandfather said that he had something to say, so let's go over and take a look?" โ€

"Okay." Dousha listened to Lin Guyu say this, and responded cheerfully.

Lin Guyu packed up the book, and then led Dousha's hand and walked outside.

Locking the door of the house, Lin Guyu gathered over there with the bean paste in his arms.

When he arrived in the middle of the group, Lin Guyu saw Chi Hang standing not far away, holding the bean paste and walking towards Chi Hang.

Walking in front of Chi Hang, Lin Guyu's gaze fell on Chi Hang's body, "How is it?" โ€

Chi Hang stretched out his hand to take the bean paste from Lin Guyu's arms, frowning slightly, "The village chief will say it in a while, and I am thinking about it and estimating that it will be divided into two batches." โ€

Just as Lin Guyu was about to speak, he heard the village chief speak, "Okay, everyone be quiet!" โ€

The villagers, who were originally noisy, suddenly quieted down.

"There are a lot of people from our original village here, and some people who are not from our village," the village chief glanced at all the people, and then said, "But since I am the original village chief, at this time, I will also be the village chief for the time being." โ€

The village chief's eyes swept over all the people and coughed, "Everyone also knows this situation, it always rains during this time, not to mention the crops, and even our house is about to be flooded. โ€

Hearing what the village chief said, all the people lowered their heads and did not speak.

Without a house, they can rebuild a house.

Without land, they can also be cultivated.

"I'm thinking, it's been so long, and there hasn't been any movement from the government's side, is it that the people from the government can't find here?" The village chief said, looking at everyone's expectant eyes, and continued, "Or rather, the government can't do anything about it. โ€

"Thirty years ago, there was a drought in our village, and at that time, there was no harvest in the fields, and the people of the government directly used horse-drawn carts to pull the grain over, and everyone could get the grain." The village chief thought back to the past, and his heart was a little warm, "But we are on the mountain here, this is the reason why the people of the government can't find us, or in other words, the people of the government have no way to walk the mountain road at all." โ€

They all know how difficult the mountain road is.

"There are two paths before us now."

As he said this, all the people fell silent and listened intently to the village chief.

"The first way is to wait for the government to rescue us!" The village chief stretched out a finger and said seriously.

Hearing what the village chief said, everyone here shook their heads.

If you wait until the people from the government come, you don't know when it will be.

They usually send people directly to the town, but the town is also flooded a lot, and they can't get in, and there is no news.

The first way is not going to work.

"The second way." The village chief's gaze swept over all the faces, and he said solemnly, "Let's start a new life." โ€

"In the future, all the animals that men catch will be raised, and they will be eaten when they grow up and give birth to small ones." The village chief said, frowning slightly, "As you know, the weather is getting warmer now, so we can still eat wild vegetables, and if it gets cold, we won't even have anything to eat now." โ€

"What then, are we going to starve to death?"

"Now even if you have money at home, you can't buy anything to eat."

"That's right, I knew that I would have bought dozens of loads of rice at home, and it wouldn't have come to this point."

......

The villagers said babblingly.

They also feel that their lives are very miserable, but they also know that the village chief is telling the truth, and when there is really no wild vegetables to eat, they can really only wait to starve to death.

The village chief's gaze swept over everyone's body, and then he spoke, "We should be glad that we can hide in the mountains, some people have no mountains at all, and they don't even have a chance to live." โ€

This sentence silenced everyone.

"Men go to the mountains to pick wild vegetables and catch animals." The village chief said solemnly, "The animals will be fed uniformly at that time, but the wild vegetables will be planted by individuals." โ€

"Of course, some people choose to wait for the government to come, and it is okay for those people to be self-sufficient." The village chief said in a calm tone.

Hearing what the village chief said, everyone began to discuss.

Lin Guyu hugged the bean paste, sighed slightly, and said helplessly, "I don't know how long we can last." โ€

"It's going to be fine." The expression on Chi Hang's face softened, and he said softly, "I'll take care of you." โ€

Although Lin Guyu believed Chi Hang's words, she also knew how much risk Chi Hang was taking.

Sighing lightly, Lin Guyu didn't know what to say.

By the time the village chief counted them, all the people had chosen to start a new life.

Since I am planning to live here for a long time, I have to think about the winter situation.

After all, in winter, their wooden houses simply do not meet their needs, and the first task facing all families is to build adobe houses.

By the time the meeting was over, everyone had dispersed.

Lin Guyu looked at the cabin, and actually felt that this house was still good, but it was not suitable in winter.

Chi Hang looked at the house, thought for a while, and then said, "I'm thinking, let's put a layer of mud wall directly on the outside, and then we can wrap our wooden house inside, so that we won't feel cold, and we don't need to find a place anymore." โ€

"Okay." Lin Guyu replied and thought for a while, "If we expand a little, the bean paste should also sleep separately from us." โ€

"Yes." Chi Hang responded very seriously.

Sleeping separately from Dousha is a very serious matter, mainly because when Dousha is there, every time Chi Hang wants to do that kind of thing with Lin Guyu, he is always rejected by Lin Guyu.

During this time, God may have mercy, but it has not rained, and every family still has some food now, and they are not so eager to eat.

All the people began to think about building a house.

Lin Guyu's idea is very simple, that is, to build a little more at the back of the house, so that she and Chi Hang can live at that time.

Chi Hang has always been a man of action, and Lin Guyu is not neat when he does his work.

The Zhao family knew that Lin Guyu and Chi Hang had a way to do it, and they planned to do the same.

There were two beds in their room, one bed for Zhao and Lin Lixia, and one for Lin Xiaohan to sleep on.

Although it is a family, Lin Xiaohan is not small, and the Zhao family plans to live separately.

Although Lin Xiaohan is not very old, he works very neatly.

Zhao and Lin Xiaohan directly dug the soil and prepared to build the wall.

The most idle of the three of them belongs to Lin Lixia, I don't know what Lin Lixia said to the Zhao family, the Zhao family really didn't let Lin Lixia work.

The most important thing on the mountain is dirt, although there are still a lot of stones,

A family of three goes to the mountains every morning to get stones, if it is just a house made of mud, it may not be very reliable, and if there are stones in it, it will be much more stable.

The two men first enclosed a piece of land at the back of the house and reluctantly built it up with stones.

Half a month has passed.

It was getting hotter and hotter, and Lin Guyu and Chi Hang barely managed to make a room at the back of the house, and only then did they open a door on the wood, which could be used as a bed for the two of them.

In order to save trouble, the two men made some dirt under the plank, and then put the straw and other things underneath, and then put the plank on it.

The bed was about the height of the little vulture.

Lin Guyu spread the bedding on it and made a pillow.

This small room is still very spacious, but it is very dark inside.

The only good thing is that they have a stove next to the wall, so it shouldn't be very cold in winter.

The wooden house has not yet been surrounded by mud walls, and Lin Guyu thinks that it will be good to come for another half a month.

Lin Lixia came out with a few clothes in his arms, his eyes inadvertently fell on the dirty clothes on Chi Hang's body, and his brows frowned slightly, "Brother-in-law, do you and your sister have clothes to wash, I'll wash them for you." โ€

There were no wells in the mountains, so they drank water and brought it up from below.

Some women who are not able to do so will help men wash their clothes or carry water from wooden buckets in exchange for food.

Chi Hang listened to Lin Lixia's voice, although he felt a little strange in his heart, he still said politely, "Thank you, eldest sister, but we can wash these clothes ourselves." โ€

"I don't have much to do on weekdays." Lin Lixia stood in the courtyard, looking at Chi Hang calmly, "Just looking at you and Gu Yu busy going around, we are a family, why are you so polite?" โ€
