Mr. Xiang also liked this appetizing pickled fish dish. He put a piece of fish in the bowl and looked at everyone: "I didn't say I disagreed."

He hadn't spoken yet, but everyone expressed their opinions as if they thought he wouldn't agree.

Xiang Ci smiled and frowned, saying that in order to be able to eat fresh fish in the future, nothing would be a problem.

Mr. Xiang put another piece of pickled cabbage into the bowl: "If we can think of raising fish, other families will also think of raising fish."

Xiang Ci recalled the look in the eyes of the young when they were carrying the fish home, and it seemed that they did have this idea.

After all, a family with twenty or thirty fish cannot eat them all at once, thinking that they can still eat them later.

The best way is to raise fish.

Mr. Xiang's voice was gentle: "When you were digging fish just now, the clan elders and I looked at it and discussed it after we came back. We thought we could learn to raise fish."

Xiang Ci's eyebrows were bright, but she didn't expect that grandpa and the others had already taken action.

Mr. Xiang sighed softly: "It's no better than before. Every family's food is their life, and it's impossible for them to take it out."

"The same principle applies to the fish. After finally dividing the fish evenly, I went to tell them that each family should take out a few fish and raise them in the village. That is unrealistic and will cause conflicts."

"Having everything come from the village will make the lazy ones even lazier, and the diligent ones will become lazy after suffering a loss. It will be more difficult to manage them in the future."

"It's easy to talk when there's no conflict of interest, and it's easy to talk when there's no comparison. But once there are these, you can't stay out of it."

Xiang Ci nodded slightly. She had seen a lot of news like this when she was surfing before.

People who build fish ponds will always have their fish fished and stolen. In more serious cases, they will poison your fish pond.

And for those who maintain their fields, people from the surrounding area will always come to rob them.

In fact, just that little benefit, but just that little benefit, will magnify people's hearts infinitely.

Between villages, we must protect our own village, between families, we must protect ourselves, and between people, we must protect ourselves.

What grandpa said was absolutely correct.

Mr. Xiang said: "Now let's talk about the method to raise fish. I counted the fish in our family, there are forty-five in total."

"Put twenty of them in the backyard. Of course, the backyard needs to be renovated, the roof covered, and a hole dug to raise fish. This is obvious."

"Let's dig another cellar to raise the other twenty fish. This is our secret food."

"Fish food... Tonight, Kaixin and Xiaobai will go dig weeds in the mountains and come back."

"If you want to raise fish, you must first raise grass. We have nectar water, so the fish should not die."

"Dig some more mud from the pond. That's their home and there's their food in it."

Mr. Xiang was very thoughtful and said everything he could think of.

It is true that he is honest, but at the same time, he is also the head of the family and wants to protect his family.

All he has to do is protect his family first and then the villagers.

He never protected the villagers and left his own family aside.

So he built two fish ponds to prevent the villagers, but he would also consider them.

Mr. Xiang blamed himself: "Xiao Qi, I told the clan elders to ask them to get more nectar from Jing Ping Empress. I didn't say it clearly, but they will understand."

Manna water can cure diseases, and you can soak your feet to remove injuries. If you get more manna water at this time, you can raise fish.

Mr. Xiang can think of it, and so can the clan elders.

If they were the only family left in the village, even if they escaped natural disasters, they would not be able to escape man-made disasters. The whole village would have to work together to fight against people from other villages.

Of course Xiang Ci understood this. When he saw his grandfather feeling guilty, he immediately said: "Grandpa, I understand that our whole village can only survive together if we are together. I understand. I will often go to the Jing Ping Lady's place to refill water."

She understands, she understands everything.

Grandpa has already done a good job, she is just adding more water, there is nothing wrong with it.

Mr. Xiang forced out an ugly smile: "Yeah, okay."

I'm really ashamed of his Xiaoqi, he has to use so much nectar from his Xiaoqi.

The family members all understand the importance of unity and feel sorry for Xiaoqi's sacrifice.

The matter was discussed, and it was almost dawn. After washing up, we carried water back to the room and made ice cubes, so that we could have a good sleep during this extremely hot day.

In order to save saltpeter, all the boys in the family slept in the main room.

Bathtubs and barrels containing fish were placed along the wall, and buckets of ice cubes were placed along the bathtub and barrels. The empty space in the middle was where the boys slept.

A layer of straw is spread on the ground for heat insulation, and a bamboo mat is placed on top.

Bamboo mats are made from strips of green bamboo strips. They are thick but very cool.

There is also a bamboo bed, which is half a meter high, one meter wide and 1.8 meters long, which is suitable for one person to lie on.

There are only four bamboo beds of this kind in the house, which are not enough, so we can only use bamboo mats.

The bamboo mat is made of bamboo split into silk. It is very soft, but it is not enough here.

The straw mat is made of straw, which is very rough and will scratch your back when you sleep on it.

Arrangements were made for the boys, that is, the girls. There were only three girls in the house.

Xiang Ci's room is relatively large and can accommodate other people.

It's just that they all refused. Before that time came, they passed by and stopped competing with the little girls for position.

Xiang Ci was very excited tonight, and it took him a while to fall asleep.

Layers of white fog were rising, and Xiang Ci walked on this road with only three or four meters of visibility, feeling nervous and scared.

She knew this was a dream. Her nightmares over the past few months had taught her all the ways to die in the world.

To be honest, she was no longer afraid of dying in her dreams.

But she was afraid of this unknown thing, and felt like she was the only one left in the world.

There was also a fear she couldn't name.

Is she the only one left dead in the family?

Keep walking forward, it is still completely white, Xiang Ci is about to collapse: "Mom! Dad!"

"grandparents!"

"Come on, Third Brother!"

"Xiang Wan, Xiang Ling!"

No matter how she shouted, no one answered her, and the white mist around her didn't dissipate.

She wiped away her tears and ran forward as hard as she could.

She didn't care what was ahead of her now, she just wanted to run and drive away the fear in her heart.

After running for an unknown amount of time, she saw a light ahead.

At this moment, she was extremely happy.

Finally, she passed through the light and entered a normal world.

It's Xiangjia Village, her yard.

The yard was full of people, including all her family members, as well as Elder Xiang, other clan elders, and villagers.

All of them were dressed in ragged clothes, looked yellow and thin, and had no energy at all.

"I told you to leave earlier, but you refused to leave. Now look at how hungry everyone is. Do you think we can really make it to the capital?"

Xiang Ci looked at the person who was speaking. It was her third brother. He looked good even if he was thinner, but his anger was so strong that she almost didn't recognize him.
