At noon on this day, every household ate pork.

Even if the wild boar is firewood, it takes an extra scoop of water, and no one is distressed.

Li Lao Er and Li Lao Si pulled the wild boar into the city.

Wild boars are not as expensive as domestic pigs, but the butcher shop still collects them happily.

And the two pigs gave eight taels of silver, which was one tael more than usual.

Not for anything else, because it's rare.

This year's drought has led to no harvest.

If people can't eat enough, who will raise pigs.

In the county, some butcher shops have run out of stock.

Some people wandered around the villages outside the county seat.

The ones I bought back were all piglets that each family couldn't afford to raise.

It's good to have seventy or eighty pounds.

The Li family sent these two, both of which were nearly 300 catties of pigs.

Lard can be boiled out a lot...

Li Lao Er and Li Lao Si are also very satisfied.

The two of them wandered around the city.

When the drought began, they rarely went into the city.

Look at it now, the streets are in an unprecedented depression.

There was a long queue in front of the grain store.

Everyone looked anxious and looked at the inside of the grain store.

On the wooden board in front of the grain store, the price of grain is written.

It's more than tripled...

Another place with a lot of people is the four deep wells dug when the city was built.

There is one in the southeast and northwest of the county.

Because of the depth of the digging, it can barely get water when it is so dry.

The county government specially sent officials to take care of it.

Every household can only beat half a bucket, and they have to endure if they have enough.

The brothers were worried about Jiaren and went to the academy on purpose.

Jiaren quickly ran to the back door and was happy to see his father and uncle.

Jiaren was a little emaciated, and his lips didn't look like they were thirsty.

Li Lao Er relaxed a little and inquired carefully.

It turned out that when the dean of the college was a young student, he had seen the misery of the great drought.

When the college was built, it cost a hundred taels of silver and a deep well was also drilled.

It's even deeper than the four in the city.

These days, the college's water has not been affected much.

Jiaren also thinks about his family, so he said.

"Dad, you discuss it with grandma.

Let's move into the city, too!

I rented a yard around here and brought water to my home every day.

It's not enough, but at least it's not too thirsty. ”

Li Lao Er was pleased that his son was filial and sensible.

He whispered about the water in the well at home.

Jiaren's eyes were red with joy.

"It's so good, it's so good, I'm scared in my dreams.

I'm afraid that there is no water at home...

Grandma always said that Fu Niuer is blessed, and our family is all gone.

Now look at it, grandma is right.

Our terrain is high in the village, but there is water in our well. ”

Li Laosi listened proudly, Fu Niu was his daughter.

He directly gave Jiaren two taels of money from the sale of wild boars.

"At this time, stay on defense.

If you don't have a good time in the academy, hurry home. ”

"Got it, Fourth Uncle."

Jiaren didn't refuse.

After a few more gossips, Li Lao Er and Li Lao Si went out of the city and went home.

Li Laosi asked hesitantly.

"Second brother, do you want to go and see... Second sister-in-law? ”

"No, I just brought her food a few days ago."

Li Lao Er replied and didn't say anything more.

In fact, the 20 catties of sorghum and 10 catties of millet given by the family made him sell half of them halfway.

The rest was sent to Wu Cuihua.

He knew Wu Cuihua too well.

If she sees a lot of grain delivered by her family.

I'm afraid that I immediately knew that there was no shortage of food at home.

When the time comes, I don't know what kind of moth will be made.

Don't say that the brothers rushed home, just say that it was in the courtyard of the north of the city.

Wu Cuihua was boiling millet porridge in a pot, sweating profusely from the heat.

As a result, the porridge was boiled, and as soon as she turned her head, she was drunk.

Wu Ergou held a big bowl and snorted.

On one side, there were Liu Laifu and Guo Shi.

This lady is also a big bowl for one person, and they dislike it while drinking.

"I said Cuihua, you can't put an extra handful of rice in the porridge.

Looking at the porridge, you can see the figures. ”

Guo's mouth was about to go to heaven, and his face was full of unhappiness.

Wu Cuihua was furious, and she couldn't bear it anymore.

She snatched Guo's bowl with a split.

"Your family wants to have a face!

Since I moved into this yard, I have come to eat all day long!

You have mountains of gold and silver in my family!

I think this porridge is slippery, why do you still come to eat it?

When you secretly boiled porridge, why didn't you see me a bowl! ”

Guo Shi was so angry that he jumped to his feet and wanted to snatch back the porridge bowl.

Wu Cuihua drank the porridge in one gulp.

Guo Shi pinched his waist and scolded, "Cheap hooves, drink your porridge, it's for your face!"

I am your aunt, and it is right for juniors to respect their elders!

We have come to you, why don't you care?

I didn't eat your gold and silver mountains, you just care so much about a mouthful of porridge!

When our family is developed, you won't be able to find the door! ”

Wu Cuihua did not show weakness and immediately scolded back.

"When our family first defected to you, didn't you care?

Our two families have long since broken off!

What an uncle, don't run to fill a big clove of garlic!

I don't eat my own food, and I come to take advantage of it every day!

If you knew this, I wouldn't help you rent a house if I killed me! ”

She is ten thousand regrets, and her intestines are blue and purple.

Previously, the younger brother sold the grain sent by the Li family.

She really couldn't help it, so she followed the woman in the nearby yard to take some work.

Pulp laundry and the like, barely starving to death.

finally relied on the sweetness of his mouth and got a dime of silver in the hands of the nobleman.

Buy some food and don't wait for a full meal.

The drought began, and there was a shortage of water in the city, so the laundry work was naturally gone.

Then, the Liu family followed Liu Laifu and ran over.

She was stunned by the kind words of the Liu family.

Helped rent two spare rooms in this courtyard.

This troublesome thing even began endlessly.

In the past, Liu Laifu came to rub rice, but now it's good, and the family is staring at her rice pot.

As long as she cooks, whoever catches up with the Liu family will eat.

It's not okay to scold, and it's not okay to be noisy.

If she hadn't hidden it tightly, I'm afraid the grain bag would have been taken away.

She is extremely nostalgic for the time when she was in Qingshui Village.

has the protection of his mother-in-law, and there is the evil god of Li Laosi.

The Liu family didn't even dare to pass by in front of the gate.

At this time, she was bullied for her ability!

Guo wiped his mouth, and it was a pity that he didn't finish the half bowl of porridge.

When she eats here, she loses a handful of rice at home.

was pointed at her nose, and she didn't care.

"If you are not filial, no wonder your in-laws don't want you.

Eat a mouthful of your porridge, you scold like this.

Hmph, the one who eats you is the one who looks up to you! ”

She squirmed back into the house, not forgetting to throw the next sentence.

"Be content, for the people in the village are dying of thirst.

Your mother-in-law's family didn't find it, so it's good.

If you provoke me again, I'll let Su Niang go back to deliver the letter.

It depends on what you will do then, not to mention food, there is no place to sleep. ”

Wu Cuihua really shut up immediately.

Although she didn't know what was going on in the village, she didn't feel good about it.

Otherwise, a strong person like Mrs. Li can't just send her half of the food.

Guo Shi don't have a crow's mouth, it's really all here, what should she do.

This house is rented by the Li family...

In fact, she was really worried in vain.

The Li family not only has water to drink, but is even eating meat at this time.

The wild boar meat was stewed for nearly two hours, and it was already ripe.

Not to mention the old and young in the family, even Jiayin hugged a bowl of meat porridge and ate it fragrantly.
