Chapter 46: On the Eve of the Disaster
"It's more than 20,000 catties of rice, third sister, what did you get to motivate you to buy so much grain?"
Feng thought about it carefully and said, "You're right, you bought too much, so you go and buy one hundred and fifty taels of rice, and I will buy the rest of the fifty taels of silver." ”
Feng Ertian looked at Feng Xian in disbelief and said, "Third sister, what's going on?" What are you doing with rice? Now there is rice in the rice store, and there is no need to store grain at all, as long as you have silver, you can buy it at any time. ”
Feng paused carefully and said: "Second brother, if the weather is so hot, there may be a big drought, we must take precautions and prepare food and water in advance, you don't have to ask more about this matter, just listen to me." ”
The Feng family has unconsciously developed the habit of listening to the wind over the years, and this time the words that the wind said carefully are not like a joke, and Feng Ertian's expression can't help but become serious.
When he was a child, he thought that what Feng Xian knew was really relying on their father to "cast dreams" for Feng Xian, and later read so many books and dealt with so many businessmen, Feng Ertian knew that there was nothing in this world that could be known by dreaming.
Even if the wind is fine and can fight, this kind of thing is the same, people die like lights go out, their father dies, how can they teach their third sister martial arts in their dreams?
Although he had some doubts in his heart, the person in front of him was indeed the third sister, no matter what she went through, he would choose to believe her.
If it weren't for the support of Feng Xi, he wouldn't be where he is today.
He just felt that his third sister was originally the youngest in the family, and she was originally the most deserving of their protection, but in the end, they were still protecting her, so he didn't have any reason or position to oppose her.
As long as it is something she recognizes, whether it is right or wrong, he will support it.
Although he doesn't know what his third sister relied on to predict these disasters, since she said so, she probably can't be wrong.
"Okay, listen to you."
Feng Ertian nodded and said, "Third sister, do you think you still need to buy something?" ”
Feng thought about it carefully and said, "Second brother, you can take a note." ”
"Let's buy another 100 catties of salt, 100 catties of flour, 20 catties of sugar, and 20 catties of bacon......"
In short, Feng Ertian gave up a long list of things that Feng Xi wanted to buy before he stopped.
After writing, Feng Ertian said: "Don't worry, I'll contact you to buy it immediately, I open a shop here, and ordinary people won't doubt it." ”
Feng nodded carefully, "There is also rice, you have to transport it separately, but you can't be remembered, it's best to find a hidden place around to hide, so that even if the food shortage breaks out, it won't be remembered." ”
"Okay."
Feng Ertian hurriedly said, "Are everyone in the family okay?" You tell your mother, let her not be afraid of ......"
Feng smiled carefully and said, "Don't worry, I'm here." ”
Feng Ertian nodded, "Okay, I'll go and ask someone to bring a letter to buy something." ”
After coming out of the Feng Ertian shop, I bought a lot of things, clothes, fabrics, and food.
But she didn't dare to buy these clothes too well and too brightly, she bought some simple colors, which were so low-key that they were not easy to be remembered.
When people encounter something, it is inevitable that someone will show a fierce appearance, she is not afraid of anyone, but she just tries to minimize conflicts with others.
When she was shopping for things, Wang Qian and Wang Xiaohua were also there.
The two of them couldn't help but walk up when they saw her.
Wang Xiaohua looked at Feng Xixiao's appearance with a big bag on her body, and couldn't help but tease: "Feng Xixiao, why are you buying so many things?" You're preparing to escape the famine, aren't you? ”
Feng choked carefully, she glanced at Wang Xiaohua deeply, and said, "You're right, I'm really preparing to escape from the famine." ”
Hearing this, Wang Xiaohua laughed, "Fine, are you confused?" Okay, what kind of famine to escape? ”
Feng Xian really didn't want to say more to Wang Xiaohua, she felt that this girl was too happy, she could see everything, and she liked to laugh and laugh no matter what she faced.
She looked at Wang Gan, but saw that Wang Gan was also looking at her, looking at her towards him, Wang Gan was stunned for a moment, and then looked away a little uncomfortably.
Feng raised his eyebrows carefully and said, "Wang Qian, what's going on with you lately?" How do you feel weird? ”
It's not like before at all, in the past, the two competed, both of them beat each other to death, and no one showed mercy to anyone.
But recently, Feng carefully discovered that Wang Qian had a feeling of being constrained when he was competing with her, and he just couldn't let go.
It's awkward.
Because of the competition and mutual assault between the two over the years, Wang Gan's ability to resist beatings and fights has improved by leaps and bounds, and he is also the third-in-command in addition to the fine wind and the strength of the wind in this distance.
Of course, this does not include hidden people like Yan Lang.
Wang Qian was said this by the wind, and immediately denied it with a rough voice, "What's weird? I think you're weird in your head? ”
Come on, Feng felt that the familiar Wang Qian was back, and it was this underbeaten taste.
Feng carefully hooked his lips and smiled, and said, "Come on, hurry up and buy food and put it away." ”
She raised her hand and pointed to the sky, "It's so hot this day, I'm worried that there will really be a drought, otherwise I wouldn't have bought so much." ”
With that, the wind was carrying a bunch of things to go.
Wang Qian didn't say a word, took two steps forward, took the things on Feng Xi's body, and walked towards the place where the ox cart was parked.
Feng was stunned for a moment, and then said to Wang Xiaohua: "Hey, your brother is quite eye-catching now, yes, young people have a future." ”
Wang Xiaohua rolled her eyes at Wang Gan's back and said, "It's really lazy and hardworking, I'm so tired from working at home that he has never helped me once." ”
The wind smiled and walked away.
After carefully carrying the things into the ox cart, Wang Qian clapped his hands and prepared to leave.
Feng Xian stopped him, and then said with a serious face: "Wang Qian, if you believe me, just buy more grain and put it away, and store more water." ”
It was rare for Wang Qian to see Feng Xian speak so seriously, he nodded thoughtfully, and then said, "Okay, listen to you." ”
Later, Wang Qian recalled Feng Xixi's words, and realized how much Feng Xixi had helped him in the first place.
After returning from the town, Feng Xiao took all the things he had bought home.
At that time, Xia was drying some vegetables found in the soil in the yard.
Some were pickled by her, some were made into kimchi, and some were dried by her.
After the wind came back, the two of them fiddled with the vegetables together.
The former bitter and mean Zhang family was abandoned by the eldest son and the second family when she was sick, and she seemed to suddenly open her mind, and she changed her meanness to the Xia family and became kind.
At the beginning, the Xia family was reluctant to accept anything from her, but the Zhang family brought them things every day, or secretly stuffed things into their house when there was no one in their house.
After a long time, the Xia family had no choice but to forgive her.
Just like now, when she saw Xia and Feng carefully flipping and drying vegetables in the sun, she came to help, and brought a straw hat to Feng Xixiao.
I only heard her say a little timidly: "Fine, you are still a little girl, your skin is still tender, don't get sunburned, put this hat on?" ”
Feng Xianxiao was squatting and drying dried vegetables, she looked up at Zhang, and before she could speak, the hat in Zhang's hand had already fallen on her head.
The wind is delicate: "......"
I can't believe that this person used to be the one who scolded her all day long.
I didn't expect to see her care so much about her family now.
Seeing that Feng Xian did not speak against it, a smile appeared on Zhang's face, as if he was a child who had been praised.
Xia Shi looked at it secretly and couldn't help but sigh slightly.
If you knew this was the case, why bother?
Here, the village chief has persuaded many people to start stocking grain, but fortunately, everyone listens to the village chief's words, and the wind looks at this scene carefully, and his heart is also a little relieved.
If only their family stockpiles food, then the people in the village will have nothing to eat in the future, then they may not be so polite to their family.
In the face of life and death, the usual politeness and morality will go to hell, and the rest are some hideous faces.
Now everyone is stockpiling food, which also reduces the danger in her home.
After a few days, the Feng family has already dried a lot of dried vegetables.
Seeing that the two mothers of the Xia family had not stopped cooking, she couldn't help but say: "The third daughter-in-law, I have eaten enough of so many dried vegetables prepared at home, if I prepare too much, I won't be able to eat so much by then, it's a pity." ”
If these words had been placed in the past, they would have been true.
But seeing that the drought was coming, of course, they prepared as much food as possible.
Feng Yili came out just in time to hear Zhang's words, Feng Yili didn't have a good impression of Zhang, even though Zhang's had changed a lot over the years.
However, Feng Yili's grudge against the Zhang family has not diminished.
At this time, I heard him say in a vicious voice: "Grandma, what do you know? If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense, you will dislike more vegetables when you do it, and you are afraid that you will dislike her less when you eat it. ”
Zhang's was so stingy that he was about to cry when he was so stingy.
Thinking about her dozens of years old, it's actually quite sad.
The eldest son and the second son, who had been distressed all his life, finally teamed up with his daughter-in-law to stop her, and still didn't want her when she was sick.
And the family of the third daughter-in-law, who has always been mean, came to take care of her when she was sick.
This made her realize her confused life at the moment of her own life and death.
So over the years, she has been kind to Xia's mother and son, one is to reduce her guilt, and the other is to get sick or something in the future, and someone can take care of her.
But listening to the words of the wind, the old lady felt that the blow was a bit big.
