"Erniu, my parents have no ability, I can't support this big family, after eating, you can go to Lao Xu's house to live."

Mother Lin held the bowl, choked and sent cornmeal batter to Lin Wanwan's mouth.

When Lin Dafu heard this, he took a hard puff of dry smoke, maybe the dry smoke was too strong, he coughed violently, and even coughed up tears.

The marks left by the years on his dark and simple face seemed to have deepened because of this cough.

The children sitting on the threshold also had tears in their eyes, they already understood and understood how this cornmeal came from, and their second sister was going to leave the house like the eldest sister.

"Mom, I won't let the second sister go, I won't let the second sister go......"

Lin Ruinian suddenly cried, he was the youngest and couldn't withstand too many partings.

Lin Ruifeng was also uncomfortable, but he knew that there was no way to do it, the second sister was already hungry, and if she didn't send it to the Xu family, she would starve to death like Grandma Li in the village.

"Don't cry, don't disturb the second sister's rest."

Lin Ruifeng covered Lin Ruinian's mouth, pulled him off the threshold, and sent him back to the room.

Lin Wanwan was troubled by the noise, she opened her eyes with difficulty, looking at the precarious adobe wall, and the thin and swarthy woman beside her, the memory of the original owner instantly filled her mind.

Now it is a time of famine, the land is dry, the crops are not harvested, and there is a plague of locusts, and they do not have a leaf left.

Lao Lin's family has many children, and they haven't seen food for a year, but it's difficult.

In order to survive the whole family, the eldest daughter was married in the first year to exchange food, but where can a bag of grain last for a spring.

In order to save food for her younger brothers and sisters, Lin Wanwan had not eaten for three days and fainted with hunger.

Lin Dafu sat on the threshold and pondered for a long time, so he could only marry his second daughter, so that he could have something to eat and not starve to death at home.

The bag of cornmeal given by Lao Xu's family can also make the family last for a while.

Lin Wanwan sighed, she could understand the Lin family's parents' approach, it was better for their daughter to marry and have a way to survive than to starve to death at home.

It's a pity that the one Lin Wanwan married late is a cripple.

"Mom, I don't blame you."

Lin Wanwan looked at the woman who was so hungry that she was already skinny and bones, and a trace of distress flashed in her eyes. If there is no way, who would marry their daughter to a cripple?

She was born in the last days and has never seen her biological mother, but she feels her mother's love in this other world.

"Erniu, you blame your mother, it's all because your mother is incapable of letting you marry such a person."

When Mother Lin heard her daughter say this, she felt even more guilty.

When they first married their eldest daughter, they also chose a thousand choices, just to make the eldest daughter's life better. But now that the famine has been raging for a year, no one is willing to give food to buy a daughter-in-law, only Lao Xu's family has produced a bag of cornmeal.

If it weren't for the crippled son of the old Xu family, I'm afraid they wouldn't have taken out this bag of cornmeal.

"Mom, I know you and Dad have done their best."

Lin Wanwan lowered her eyes and took the bowl from Mother Lin's hand.

The cornmeal batter is not tasty, because it is a coarse grain, and it is a little.

But in this era of extreme food shortage, it is already a very good food to be able to eat it in your mouth and fill your stomach.

"Erniu, after drinking this bowl of cornmeal batter, I have to send you to Xu's house."

Mother Lin wiped her tears with her cuffs and took off the silver bracelet she was wearing on her wrist.
