Chapter 118: There is no food

"Dad, are you feeling better today??"

This month, the continuous torrential rains not only flooded the crops, but also put the waterline in the embankment in jeopardy, and even the small river in the village, which is not too deep, was turbulent.

Because only one bag of food was rescued, and the other two bags were still not caught, the food at home was already in a hurry, and the food delivered was decreasing every day, and the quarrel in the front yard and the two adjacent houses was getting louder day by day.

The sense of crisis that food is about to run out of food is like a dark cloud in the sky hanging over everyone's heart.

The contradictions aroused by restlessness and restlessness are like the battlefield where the two armies are fighting, and every day the 'swords and swords' are endless, and the verbal battles are constantly poking at the sore spots of some people.

"It's better."

Lin Yuannan's smile was tired, and he barely bothered to comfort his daughter: "Let's eat something first." ”

Today's dinner was a bowl of porridge that was so thin that only a few rice grains could be seen and a plate of fried wrinkled wild vegetables with only salt added.

Lin Xiangrong half-opened his eyes, put down his chopsticks after only a few bites, and coughed twice in Lin Yuannan's puzzled eyes: "I'm full." ”

In fact, I was very hungry, and the porridge without rice grains was no different from drinking it in my stomach and satisfying my hunger with cold water, and that little bit of wild vegetables, apparently carefully selected, brought a little wild vegetable that was in the best condition, and looked to have the freshest.

She only ate a few bites and was worried about the food at home.

"Eat more." Lin Yuannan saw that she only drank two mouthfuls of porridge, and she didn't eat a little wild vegetables, and the whole person was a little anxious, she was already in poor health and had been sick, and now the food she ate was almost gone, and she couldn't provide her daughter with the nutrients she needed for her body recovery every day, and she didn't eat much, when will her body be better? !

"Okay."

After being persuaded to eat two more bites and not eat, Lin Xiangrong curled up in the quilt, stretched out his finger and pointed at the round belly of the three-flowered cat: "You are full of food." ”

The three-flowered cat 'aimed', licked its paws, coiled beside the little master, and shook the tip of its tail slightly to make a comfortable and reassuring purr.

Lin Yuannan took the food away, and after a while, he sent a nest head that was still a little hard after the heat, and he whispered: "You eat first, and tomorrow Dad will come into the town to buy you meatloaf to eat." ”

The rain continued unabated, and the mountains on the left and right sides of the dirt road leading to the town in the village seemed to show signs of landslides, and the large river that flowed almost the entire road was more violent than in previous years.

As soon as he thought of the few medicines available at the clinic and the children who were a little sick in the village and at home, he pinched his daughter's wrist, which was as thin as a few fingers that were put together, and decided to venture out into the town to buy some medicine and things.

"Nope."

Lin Xiangrong sat up suddenly, her head shook like a rattle, she heard the door creak and was pushed open, and she didn't turn her head to look over, but said very persistently: "Can't go, how dangerous it is at this time, if something happens, what can we do?" ”

She directly refused Sanlian, then drank a glass of warm water handed by Zhou Zhaodi, and grabbed Zhou Zhaodi's hand: "Mom, you can control my dad, don't let him toss around, okay, my body is fine, it's just a loss of appetite." ”

Then he persuaded the two people, and when he saw that they hadn't mentioned it again, he was relieved, and let the two go to the front room to discuss things.

In the front room, a group of people listened to the roar of thunder and lightning outside, accompanied by heavier and heavier rainstorms as the lightning struck.

"It's raining so hard."

Lin Yuannan stepped in, wiped his hair with a towel, and wrung the water on the hem of his clothes, he sneezed, feeling a little cold.

No one spoke in the room, and everyone looked worried.

"I don't know when this rain will stop, I heard that the town is already preparing for disaster relief." Lin Dawei let out a long sigh, he didn't even want to roll up his cigarettes, he seemed to be getting more and more tired, his face that had always been full of harshness was even thinner, and a pair of somewhat cloudy eyes brightened as the situation became more and more difficult.

It stands there like a needle of the sea god.

"Third child, how much have you eaten?" Wang Cuilan ignored her wife's words, she kept turning the string of bracelets she picked up in her hand, and asked for the Buddha from the Queen Mother in her heart, almost every god who could call her name begged again.

I don't want anything else, I just want the whole family to survive.

"I didn't eat after two bites, Mom, I've run out of medicine, what will I do in the future?" Lin Yuannan frowned, he squatted down, glanced at Yuan Dong, who was anxious and anxious, and asked, "What about your family's big rich and second rich?" ”

Because Dafu and Erfu were not in good health, the two babies finally lived to the age of twelve, and they were already small adults in the countryside, but it was a month-long heavy rainstorm, which directly made the two children who had improved a lot of health fall ill again.

coughing and shivering every day without talking, and having a fever from time to time, frightened Fang Hongying to stay by the two of them, and didn't dare to close her eyes, for fear that if she closed her eyes, her son would have an accident after opening her eyes again.

"Not good."

Yuan Dong was heartbroken for the two children, he lit a cigarette tiredly, put his trembling hands to his mouth, took a hard puff, and said: "The town has already provided disaster relief, but this heavy rain does not stop, and it is estimated that it will take five or six days to reach our village." ”

Five or six days?

I don't know if I can eat food at home for five or six days.

He stopped talking, so the room was quieter.

"Mom, there's nothing to eat at home."

Fang Hongying, who came out of the kitchen, had an ugly expression, and she said in an impatient and restless tone: "There is nothing to eat, not a single grain of rice in the rice bowl is gone, you can eat at most at night, and you will have to go hungry tomorrow." ”

A large family of more than a dozen mouthfuls, saving food and eating for a month before running out of food, is already very good.

Some families have already borrowed food from everywhere.

Wang Cuilan's face sank, and she rushed to the kitchen to rummage around, not to mention brown rice, not even a grain of rice could be turned out.

"I'm going to die."

She muttered, and the whole person's spirit was drained.

There is nothing to eat, there are so many mouths in a large family, and even two grandchildren and a granddaughter are sick, if they don't come for disaster relief in a few days, they will all have hungry eyes with green light.

No, we have to find a way to see who has more food to borrow a little more.

"Do as much as you want."

Wang Cuilan told Fang Hongying: "Don't worry about the rest, it's really not good, the big guys drink water to fill their stomachs at night." ”

"Sister-in-law, how much food is left?" In the front room, the princess, who had been struggling, finally asked, "Do you have to be hungry?" ”
