Chapter 142: The backbone of Qingshan Village
It's mid-September.
However, the drought situation in Qingquan County has become more and more serious, and I have heard that there have been terrible incidents of "changing children and eating them" in some places.
After Qin Zhenbei recovered from his injuries, he began to take the villagers into the mountains to fetch water.
Su Jin was not idle, she followed Qin Zhen north into the mountains a few days ago and found a lot of cassava growing in a place.
The place is not deep in the mountains and forests, and there are naturally a lot less dangers.
Now, Su Jin leads Dabai and Xiaobai every day, calls powerful villagers, and goes into the mountains to dig cassava.
Su Jin warned everyone that cassava must be cooked before it can be eaten, otherwise there is a possibility of poisoning.
There is something to satisfy hunger, there is water to quench thirst, looking at the entire Qingquan County, now Qingshan Village is the most peaceful.
Seeing that it was getting bigger and more peaceful, the village chief simply blocked the last road left in the village to the outside.
Unless there is an emergency that necessitates leaving the village, the villagers of Qingshan Village are not allowed to go out.
In times of crisis, this is also the safest approach.
Many of the women who stayed behind were married from other villages.
In normal times, it is understandable for these women to take food and water to help their parents' family.
But now it's a different story!
There was such a fierce commotion outside, and even the thing of "eating from a child" happened.
Once the news of food and water in Qingshan Village spreads, I am afraid that people from all nearby villages will rush into Qingshan Village to grab water and food.
In the end, it was the villagers of the whole village who suffered.
Especially the last time people from other villages surrounded the village to beg for water.
Later, Qin Fuan investigated and learned that a woman in the village secretly gave water to her mother's family, but her mother's family didn't think there was enough water to take home, so they shook it out, and wanted to move the big guy to grab the water in Qingshan Village.
The villagers who learned the truth agreed with Qin Fu'an's decision, and even offered to go to the foot of the mountain to move stones to block the road.
Some people also gave death orders to their daughters-in-law, who dares to sneak out of the village and tell their mother's family about the affairs in the village, then wait for a letter of resignation and drive out of Qingshan Village to fend for themselves!
The women in the village who originally wanted to help their mother's family were beaten like this, so they stopped thinking about returning to their parents' house, and thought about how to live.
In the difficult period when they were starving, the villagers of Qingshan Village were able to live their lives, which was undoubtedly the credit of Qin Zhenbei and Su Jin.
For a while, Qin Zhenbei and Su Jin's status in the village was rising, and Qin Fuan now likes to discuss with Qin Zhenbei whenever he has something.
Qin Zhenbei and Su Jin have become the backbone of the entire Qingshan Village!
On this day, Lu Xiuxiu came out to dig wild vegetables with her mother under the sun.
Lu Xiuxiu lived in the Lu family.
Don't look at Lu Xiuxiu, she got a lot of dowry gifts when she got married for the second time, but in fact, the mother who killed the pigherd didn't like her very much.
Lu Xiuxiu was set up on the first day she got married.
The old lady disliked her all day long, relying on a little bit of posture to seduce her son.
Coincidentally, this drought broke out, and the mother who killed the pig herd directly drove Lu Xiuxiu out of the house on the grounds that there was no food at home.
Lu Xiuxiu, who was digging wild vegetables, listened to others praising Su Jin, her face turned green with anger, and she gritted her teeth and said: "What's so great about finding some cassava, I think it's just a coincidence!" ”
Mother Lu listened to her daughter's words, and immediately reached out and pulled down her sleeve, signaling her not to talk nonsense.
Now Su Jin is liked by the villagers of the whole village, and once someone hears the words of his daughter, it is possible to drive him out of the village.
Lu Xiuxiu shook off her mother's hand and said angrily: "If you don't let me say that I mean, Su Jin's ugly woman is just a blind cat who killed a mouse, and I can find out if I want to go into the mountain!" ”
The woman was complaining, and suddenly saw Qin Zhenbei just coming down from the mountain with the villagers.
Seeing this, Lu Xiuxiu shoved the basket in her hand into Lu's mother's hand, and then ran towards Qin Zhenbei with excitement on her face.
