I am happy to be a mother in a famine year, I have a system to farm the land

When she saw Zhu Qiuqi take out something that looked like a lotus root from her bosom, Mrs. Zhang couldn't react for a while.

When she saw Zhu Qiuqi's smile all over her face, Mrs. Zhang's eyes suddenly widened.

"This is lotus root? Where did you get this stuff?"

The old lady Zhang was also very surprised when she saw the lotus root suddenly.

But when she realized that they didn't have lotus roots here, Mrs. Zhang frowned again, worried that Zhu Qiuqi would spend money again on something that didn't fill her belly.

After all, food is the most important thing for everyone this year.

It's okay to eat less fresh vegetables, as long as people don't starve to death, even if they eat some wild vegetables, it's nothing.

Although Zhu Qiuqi has changed her sex now, Mrs. Zhang is always worried that Zhang Siyuan and Zhu Qiuqi will not live together.

Spend all the money in the family, and when there is no food, people will starve to death.

Zhu Qiuqi saw that Mrs. Zhang was worried, so she handed the lotus root to Mrs. Zhang.

The old lady Zhang's face became more dignified, "Second brother, tell me the truth. Where did you get the lotus root from? Did it come from the county? Don't try to lie to me, no one grows it here. Lotus root."

Zhu Qiuqi saw the worry and tension on the old lady Zhang's face, and knew that the old lady was worried about her.

"Mother, you misunderstood, I didn't buy this lotus root."

Old lady Zhang gave her an angry look.

"You didn't buy it. Could it be that someone else gave it to you? They are not stupid. They gave you the good lotus root these years?"

When Zhu Qiuqi said that the lotus root was not bought, Mrs. Zhang subconsciously felt that Zhu Qiuqi was lying.

After all, Yuanshen had done a lot of these things in the past, whenever he bought something good from the town.If Zhu Qiuqi wanted to bring it to Zhu's family, she would say that it was given by someone else.

At first the old lady believed some of her nonsense, but after a long time the old lady didn't believe her words at all.

This also caused Zhu Qiuqi to say that the lotus root was not bought, and Mrs. Zhang didn't believe her at all.

Seeing that the old lady was about to get angry, Zhu Qiuqi felt helpless.

But seeing that the attention of old lady Zhang and Zhang Siya was diverted by the lotus root, she also breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, a good family can't be moaning and sighing all day long, otherwise how would you live this day?

But seeing that Mrs. Zhang was about to get angry, Zhu Qiuqi quickly pointed in the direction of the kitchen.Seeing Zhang Siyuan just coming out of the kitchen, Zhu Qiuqi hurriedly waved to him.

Zhang Siyuan put the basket in the kitchen, ignored Zhou Meixue's surprised gaze, and strode out.

Seeing Zhu Qiuqi waving at him, Zhang Siyuan thought she was looking for him for something.

"what happened?"

Zhu Qiuqi quickly glanced at the old lady of the Zhang family, and sure enough, she found that the old lady Zhang's face was livid with anger.

But because her son was still standing by her side, Mrs. Zhang didn't get angry at Zhu Qiuqi.

Seeing how angry the old lady was with a few words of her own, Zhu Qiuqi felt a little guilty for no reason.

"Quickly explain to your mother, we didn't buy this lotus root from the county town, nor did someone else give it to us."

Zhang Siyuan also saw that his mother was angry, so he sat aside and comforted her softly.

"Mother, Qiu Qi is not lying, we did not buy this lotus root from the county."

The old lady Zhang couldn't help snorting coldly when she heard the words, Zhang Siyuan used to speak for his wife a lot.

Not a thousand years ago, she still thought that her youngest son was a courageous person, and also a boy who was hard to make progress.

After all, there were very few people who went to the battlefield and came back alive, and after Zhang Siyuan returned from the battlefield, his temperament also changed significantly.

He even has more knowledge than the rest of them, and Lizheng sometimes consults with him when something happens.

It is precisely because of this that Mrs. Zhang may have been less proud of her youngest son in the past.

But since the youngest son got married, Mrs. Zhang became very angry when she saw that the youngest son was always silent when facing his wife.

However, Zhu Qiuqi planned to have two children with Zhang Siyuan again. When the old lady Zhang faced the two children, she softened her heart and never mentioned any divorce to her son.

But now seeing her son cover up Zhu Qiuqi even for such a thing, Mrs. Zhang felt that her son had become stupid.

"Don't stay here to protect your wife? Don't you know what year it is now? You might as well buy more food if you have that little money."

Zhang Siya, who was on the side, was secretly sad because of her own affairs, but now that Zhu Qiuqi bought lotus roots, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

The former second younger sibling was ignorant, and she didn't even want to say a word to him.

But now it's finally changed, but it doesn't look like a person who knows how to live.

"Qiuqi, don't dislike me for nagging you. The food in our county is very precious now, and the price of food in the food shop is also rising day by day. Something really happened at this time, food is life. s things."

Zhang Siya persuaded Zhu Qiuqi earnestly, hoping that Zhu Qiuqi could think about the current situation and stop wasting money.

If it was the past, Zhang Siya would definitely not say so much.

One is because she was not that familiar with Zhu Qiuqi before, and the other is that Zhu Qiuqi had a lot of hostility towards her before.

Although Zhang Siya didn't understand where this hostility came from?But in the face of a person who is hostile to him, Zhang Siya naturally wouldn't say too much.

And now the situation is not as good as before, if it was Zhu Qiuqi who bought some fresh vegetables in the past, neither Zhang Siya nor the old lady of the Zhang family would say a word.

But now that this kind of food is not enough, Zhang Siya still wants to persuade Zhu Qiuqi more.

Listening to what his mother and eldest sister said, Zhang Siyuan also knew that they had misunderstood.

He couldn't help looking at Zhu Qiuqi who was at the side, and Zhu Qiuqi hurriedly gave her a wink.

Now this kind of time is actually not suitable for her to speak, after all, Mrs. Zhang is her mother-in-law.

At this time, if you lose face to old lady Zhang, old lady Zhang will not be comfortable in front of her in the future.

The same is true for Zhang Siya. Zhang Siya is her eldest aunt, not her own sister.

Even sisters have conflicts, let alone elder sisters.

Sometimes there are many things that Zhang Siya's identity is not suitable to mention to her.It's just that these days are really tough, Zhang Siya is also worried about her messing up, so she mentioned one more thing.

If it was Zhang Siyuan who explained it, things would be much easier.

After all, Zhang Siyuan is Mrs. Zhang's own son and Zhang Siya's own brother.
