"Let's talk in the evening. Those who have something at home will eat it first. If there is more, help those in need first."

The clan leader was upset, waved his hand and explained, and ignored it.

The daylight hours are too short, so if you have the time, you might as well try to find something to eat.

Hearing what the clan leader said, everyone grabbed their belongings in despair.

Now the food shortage has just begun. No matter how many houses are raided in the village, it is still better than in Beijing.

What's more, when I go on the road, there are relatives coming to see me off, and they have some money or food in their hands.

Ji Dahe's family sat on the ground with their knees bent and did not speak.

Ji Dahe's mother died during childbirth, and his grandfather suddenly collapsed while working in the fields last year.

Even after spending all the family's savings and not being able to save her, grandma cried her eyes out.

During the exile, only the blind grandmother and their father and son were left in the family.

The poor people in the family can't even open the pot. Where are the relatives? I'm afraid that I won't be able to get rid of them!

Ji Fengshou and Ji Changchuan, father and son, walked over slowly with things in their arms.

Ji Dahe looked at the two people warily.

He didn't forget that on the day of the house raid, Ji Fengshou went to his house and his butt hurt for two days!

Ji Changchuan looked at him and snorted coldly: "Who dares to trouble you! My sister is so powerful now! I can beat you to the north, south, east, and west with one punch."

Ji Dahe frowned: "What are you talking about? It's not you who can hit me!"

Ji Changchuan curled his lips, quickly took out something wrapped in cloth from his arms and threw it to him: "My family asked me to give it to you!"

Just give it and leave, simply and neatly.

Ji Shilei watched the two people communicating silently without making a sound.

Ji Fengshou squatted next to him and crooked him with his elbow: "Children's matters are theirs, and we adults are adults. If you have any difficulties at home, just talk about it. Don't be so nice."

After speaking, he took out the things in his arms and handed them over: "The child belongs to my family. My sister-in-law asked me to give it to you."

Ji Shilei took it with trembling hands. As soon as he took it, he felt that the thing in his hand was edible.

His mother was groping on the side: "Son! Is someone from the village coming?"

Ji Shilei snorted with a nasal sound.

Ji Fengshou saw that he didn't stay even after collecting the things. He smiled and said hello to the old lady and left.

Ji Dahe was a little confused looking at the pieces of pastries and candies in his hands.

He didn't expect that Ji Changying's family would be willing to help them.

why?

He used to often bully Ji Changying with children from other families in the village.

For the first time, a confused look appeared in his eyes: "Dad, did I do something wrong before?"

No one taught him right or wrong, he always did things according to his heart.

The first time, he was a little overwhelmed.

Ji Shilei looked at his son like this and patted his head dullly: "It's all over."

After a pause, he added: "Dad has never read a book, so he can't explain the truth, but he knows that you can't have a bad conscience. From now on, we will all respect your Uncle Fengshou and the whole family, you know?"

The old lady showed a toothless smile on one side: "Your father is right, Dahe, you have to be obedient."

-

The Ji family had fried flour for lunch.

After frying the flour and sesame seeds, you can eat it by washing it with water, which is quick and convenient.

Originally, Hu made a lot of pancakes with pot stickers last night to eat during the day.

But when she saw the family of three huddled in the corner, Mrs. Hu couldn't help but let someone take the pancakes over.

"Let's take care of you at noon, and I'll find a way to get you some food in the evening."

Along the way, Mrs. Hu was really trying her best to make different kinds of food for her family to eat.

Ji Changying quickly finished her meal and watched the officials selling pancakes with smiles on their faces.

After a whole night, there were even more people buying pancakes at noon today.

Maybe now that they have made money, these officials no longer rush to get on their way as if urging them to do something.

Instead, it gave everyone time to eat and drink enough, and replenish water before setting off on the road again.

Even though it is an official road, the road is still bumpy. Every now and then there is a pit or a pile of rocks.

While walking, suddenly someone fell to the ground with a 'pop'.

"Father! Father!"

Several people immediately fell to the ground, shaking the old man on the ground.

"Save my dad! Someone save my dad!"

"father--"

A group of people shouted miserably, but no matter how hard they shook the people on the ground, there was no response.

The government officials came over quickly. When they saw this scene, they bent down and took a breath as they were used to it. Then they took out the roster and marked it.

"Bury it."

This understatement made everyone who saw it shiver.

For a moment, Ji Changying couldn't tell whether the end of the world or the ancient times was better. They were both places that could eat people.

The life of civilians in ancient times was not as beautiful as imagined.

First of all, the output of grain is not high. If the weather is good, if you work hard all year round and have enough to eat after paying taxes, it will be considered a good condition.

The prerequisite for all this is the absence of corrupt officials and harsh governance.

However, man-made disasters have never stopped since ancient times. Whenever there is a disturbance, food production will be reduced, and the whole family will be busy all year round.

Secondly, in ancient times, hierarchy was strict and human lives were as little as trivial matter.

For example, in front of me, all these officials didn't even raise their eyelids.

Going further down the road, medical technology is underdeveloped, and a small cold has a high chance of killing someone.

As for quality of life? Spiritual desire?

Hehe, we need to eat before we can talk about anything else.

The old man dug a hole and buried it on the spot, right next to the official road.

The family didn't even have time to carve a tombstone before they were urged on their way by the official.

The mournful cries of the whole family lasted the entire afternoon.

This time, in addition to physical torture, there was also mental torture.

At night, I successfully found a place to rest by the river.

Everyone in Lianhua Village was distracted and glanced at the old patriarch from time to time.

"Let's talk after dinner. I'll talk to Fengyi and Xiuren first."

The patriarch told his son to call someone.

Ji Fengyi and Ji Xiuren, as two of the few talented people in Lianhua Village, both have a certain say.

Although I have lost my fame now, I cannot take away the knowledge and insights engraved in my mind.

Ji Changying didn't find any food in the afternoon, so she had meat and beans as usual in the evening. Her brothers took turns collecting firewood, water and stones.

Hu quickly set up the pot and prepared to cook.

When Ji Changying saw that nothing happened to her, she walked towards the clan leader with steady steps.

She was just curious about what they were talking about.

As a result, Ji Dahe blocked the way before he even got close.

Ji Changying looked at him with raised eyebrows: "What are you doing? Want to fight?"

Ji Dahe waved his hand awkwardly: "I'm here to apologize to you. It was all my fault in the past. Because no children in the clan wanted to play with me, I bullied you with those people with other surnames, so that they would follow me." played··"
