Grandma Fang looked at the little bit of food that Fang Youshun had brought back, and almost didn't stare out of her eyes.

"That's all there is to it?" Grandma Fang couldn't believe it.

"Well, that's all." Fang Youshun nodded helplessly.

Fortunately, he has a stipend, and the family can now start their own fire, and he can buy food to eat openly, although his allowance is not much, but it will not make a large family hungry.

And even if his allowance is not enough, now that the weather is getting warmer, as soon as the temperature rises, the wild vegetables in the field will bubble out, dig some wild vegetables and mix them, and this family should not be hungry.

However, after Fang Youshun was at ease for less than half a month, people began to borrow money and food, and even some people began to clean the yard and work as soon as they entered the door, just to be able to eat.

It's not that these people don't have anything to eat at home, but they also want to eat more, and they want to save some food so that their families can eat more, and Fang Youshun is obviously the best way out, after all, it is known that he has an allowance.

It's only been a few days, and Fang Youshun has been made big, and those who want to excuse themselves that they haven't eaten at home don't believe it, and they still come to the door.

Grandma Fang saw that it was not a matter to go on like this, seeing that the weather was getting warmer and wild vegetables began to emerge from the field, she called Fang Youshun to take the child to dig wild vegetables in the field.

When someone came to borrow money, borrow grain, and mix rice, Grandma Fang directly took out the wild vegetables: "Our old couple and my son-in-law's family are also a big family, and the allowance of my old man is not enough for me to buy food for my own family, if you don't dislike it, take some wild vegetables, my family also eats this now." ”

Those who borrowed money looked at the wild vegetables, thinking about Fang Youshun and Shen Jinggui's family, they did eat a lot of food at the end of the day, so they could only turn their heads and leave, those who borrowed food or wanted to eat, looked at the wild vegetables that Grandma Fang brought over, and looked at the dried wild vegetables in the yard that were boiled and dried in the yard, and they were embarrassed to really take it, so they also left.

After all, they can dig this wild vegetable themselves, and there is really no need to take it from the old lady's hand, which will make them look too shameless.

Just like this, no one from the Fang family finally came to the door again, and Fang Youshun and Grandma Fang breathed a sigh of relief.

At the same time, the house of the Shen family brothers also began to be built, and the homestead was not far from the Shen family's old courtyard.

In fact, the brothers were still struggling with whether to build a house this year, after all, it would cost a lot of money to hire a bricklayer, but they didn't have much food, so they had to use the money to buy something to eat.

But I didn't expect that when a few people hesitated, suddenly a bricklayer took the initiative to come to the door and said that he could build a house for them without money, as long as he gave two catties of grain, no matter what kind of food, he and his gang of people would definitely build the house sturdy and upright.

The brothers got together and discussed, if they only took care of food, it would be much cheaper than the original bricklayer, so that they could save a lot of money, although after building the house, they may not have much money left, and may even have no money to buy food to eat, but now there are wild vegetables everywhere in the field, and it is a big deal that they eat wild vegetables for a while.

So, the houses of the Shen brothers were built in such a hurry, and Shen Jinggui immediately went to help as long as he didn't go to work.

Shen Yuling watched the bricks in the yard decrease day by day, and felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, and Shen Laosi and Aunt Shen were in a hurry, but there was nothing they could do.

Last winter, when Shen Laosi saw a few brothers making adobe bricks, he discussed with these brothers to see if they could help him make his adobe bricks together, after all, he had no time to go to the dam protection project, and Aunt Shen couldn't do it alone. At that time, although the faces of the brothers were not very good, they also said that if their adobe bricks were enough, they would help him make them.

As a result, when Shen Laosi went to ask which adobe bricks belonged to his family, the brothers actually said that if they built a house, the remaining adobe bricks would be his, and if there was no left, there would be no his.

Shen Laosi's face was dark at that time, and he only felt that these brothers were playing tricks on him.

After all, who knows how many bricks they'll have left? What if there's nothing left, isn't this just a joke?

Shen Laosi was very angry here, and the Shen brothers were actually very bad.

After all, when the brothers took their wives and children to make adobe bricks by the bay in the cold wind, Shen Laosi's family didn't see a single figure. Shen Laosan also once said to Shen Laosi that he could let Shen Si take his older daughters to help do some digging work, but Shen Laosi sent him away as soon as he said, "It's so cold, my daughter-in-law and children will freeze if they are not well", and Shen Laosan was so angry at that time.

Co-authored his Shen Laosi's daughter-in-law and children are afraid of freezing, and the daughters-in-law and children of their brothers are steel and iron?

So the depressed brothers made enough earthen bricks for each family's three houses, so they took their wives and children to cut reeds and grass felt in the wasteland, and they were not idle for a day in winter, and when they were doing this, Shen Laosi's family never stretched out their hands, all like this, they promised to give the remaining adobe bricks to Shen Laosi, what do you want?

And for these, Shen Yuling didn't know anything about it, after all, even if she was quite smart now, she was still a child, and no one would take the initiative to tell her that these things were something that adults had to worry about.

As the days passed, the houses of the Shen brothers were quickly built, and after another two months, it was time for the wheat harvest, and some teams immediately opened a canteen after recovering the first handful of wheat, while the eight teams ate their own food as usual, and when the grain was harvested and handed over to the public grain, the remaining grain was immediately divided.

In this way, people plan to eat, and every household should not go hungry.

However, God doesn't know what is going on, it doesn't rain much since the wheat is harvested, and occasionally a light rain, the ground stops before it gets wet, and the seeds that go down to the ground don't have a little spirit even if they finally drill out of the ground, and the wild vegetables in the field are the same, and they don't like to bubble out without rain.

Fang Youshun looked at the crops in the land and rolled up their leaves, a little worried.

It doesn't rain all the time, how can the crops grow? How can you harvest grain if the crops don't grow? What do people eat if they don't harvest food?

But as if God wanted to confirm Fang Youshun's conjecture, as the days passed, the days began to get more and more dry.

In the spring, people can still dig some wild vegetables, but at this time, people can't even dig some wild vegetables.

Fang Youshun saw that the situation was not good, and he was afraid that there would be another situation where someone kept coming to borrow money and food in the first half of the year, so he discussed with Grandma Fang when Shen Yulin and Shen Yusleeve had just had a summer vacation, whether to learn from those people who ran out to mix rice or ask for food in order to save some food for their families, pretending to go out to ask for food.

After all, with his little allowance, it would be good to be able to keep his old couple, his daughter, and son-in-law from starving, how could he have so much extra money and surplus food to keep borrowing out? It's better to hide under the guise of asking for food.

Grandma Fang was very entangled when she heard his proposal.

To be honest, since I hit here, although there have been times when the year is bad, I have never faced such a situation. The previous experience made her a little resistant to the days of wandering around.

But just like Fang Youshun said, in this situation, when others come to borrow money and grain, it is a problem for them to borrow or not.

After all, when she fled back then, she and her daughter would not have survived without the help of good people, so she was willing to help people from the bottom of her heart. But if people keep coming to the door, they really can't afford it.
