I have a mall space system, raise the baby first and then fight

Shen Lianxin patted her on the shoulder and said, "Mom, don't worry. Taoshu Village and Shanghe Village are not far away. Let's go see the big sister and the little sister later."

Old Mrs. Shen's eyes lit up. They didn't live too far away, and if the two girls didn't come back, she could go and see them.

It's not that I haven't thought about going over to take a look over the years, but my family has always been living in poverty. If I went there and saw the girl suffering and couldn't help, wouldn't that make people look down on me even more?

I don't have the confidence to support the girl. I took other people's rice in the first place, and now I can't pay back the 50 kilograms of food. What will happen if I go? It will only make people feel more uncomfortable.

Things are different now, as their fourth daughter Shen Lianxin has become successful. They also have the confidence to go and see their own daughter.

Old Madam Shen wiped away her tears and looked at Shen Lianxin expectantly, "Fourth girl, the person I feel most sorry for in my life is your elder sister. When I have time, I will definitely go see her."

Shen Lianxin nodded. "Don't worry, mother."

Xu Guihua saw that everyone here was her family, and she felt a little awkward as an outsider, so she said to Shen Lianxin, "Lianxin, you guys can have a family gathering today, I'll go home first. We live close, I'll come to see you another day."

Shen Lianxin grabbed her and said, "Don't leave. You are not a stranger. Eat here. Go back and call Brother Zhang and your Dashan. It will be a lively day today."

As they were talking about the excitement, another group of people came outside the door. Shen Lianxin looked and saw that the head of the village had come with a group of villagers.

He quickly ushered the person in, "Village head, you are here."

The village head walked in with a smile, "Now that you have built a big house, all the villagers want to come and see your Shen Mansion and congratulate you."

"Yes, yes. The Hunter family is really capable. Let us also come and share in the good fortune."

"Yes, yes, let's join in the fun."

"I've never seen such a nice house. Let's all open our eyes. Haha."

"Yes, yes, this is really beautiful. It's really beautiful!! Haha."

No one in the village came empty-handed. Some held two potatoes, some held a handful of vegetables, some held two big radishes, some held some rice, and some held a few eggs.

Shen Lianxin didn't expect that everyone would be so enthusiastic. Although the gifts were not valuable, they were the most simple and thoughtful gifts. Shen Lianxin was very touched.

Old Mrs. Shen and Sun Xiaoyue immediately switched roles and helped Shen Lianxin greet everyone.

"Everyone, feel free to visit and sit anywhere. Don't be polite."

Pulling Xu Guihua, he said, "See? You can't leave today. Help me get some help."

Xu Guihua smiled and said, "Yes, yes, I will work for you today."

The originally deserted courtyard suddenly became lively, and Shen Lianxin was not stingy in serving up plates of melon seeds, peanuts and snacks.

The villagers are simple and honest people who don't care about so many things. The aunts who came with them all consciously followed Shen Lianxin to help greet people.

"Village head, fellow villagers, don't leave today, come and have a meal with me. I have enough food at home. Come and celebrate the completion of my house. It's better to have a feast today than to wait for a better day."

Everyone laughed and said, "Okay, I'll go home and get whatever I need."

"Yes, if there aren't enough vegetables, I'll pick some from my field."

"My boss caught two fish in the river yesterday. I'll go get them and we'll eat them together."

"Then I'll catch an old hen from home."

The man who said he wanted to catch the old hen was immediately pinched by his wife.

Everyone burst into laughter.

"No need for that. The food in my house is just enough. I'm glad that you guys can come. I just want everyone to eat and drink well today."

The women went into the kitchen one after another to help prepare the food, and Shen Lianxin began to take out the necessary things from the ear room.

The annex was just a cover-up, in fact, she bought everything from the space mall. Now she can earn 60 taels of silver a day, which is 6 yuan when converted into the space mall. It can be said that the things she lacks the most are money and supplies.

Old Mrs. Shen was responsible for taking care of Gu Chengzhen, Shen Lianxin was busy getting what everyone needed, and several aunts and Sun Xiaoyue were busy in the kitchen.

Old Man Shen, Shen Laifu, Shen Laibao, and Li Cuilan were also there. I heard that Shen Lianxin was preparing a feast today, and more people were rushing to the Shen residence.

Li Cuilan also joined in the reception and soon, the tables were ready.

Braised pork, stir-fried pork with garlic moss, stewed chicken with mushrooms, minced meat and eggplant, sliced ​​​​mushrooms and meat, tiger skin hot peppers, cola chicken wings, stir-fried vegetables, mixed vegetables, smashed cucumbers...

For the villagers in Yunshan Village who don't eat meat all year round, these are all hard dishes. There is also white rice.

Everyone was stunned. How rich must Shen Lianxin be to treat so many people to meat?

Suddenly I felt that the radishes and vegetables I had taken were too shabby.

Seeing that no one was eating, Old Man Shen called out, "Eat. Everyone, eat. We are happy today, so don't be polite. Village head, come and have a piece of meat."

Old man Shen picked up a piece of braised pork for the village head, and the village head said, "Yes, yes, yes, come, first of all, let us congratulate the Shen family on the completion of this mansion. It is a cause for celebration."

With everyone's blessings, Shen Lianxin fell more and more in love with this small village at the foot of the mountain.

Shen Lianxin didn't prepare any wine, so everyone finished the meal quickly.

After playing for a while, the villagers left one after another.

The head of the village sighed, and Shen Lianxin was puzzled, "Is the head of the village worried?"

"You are a capable person. To be honest, I am worried."

"But what happened?"

"It has been almost three months since there has been a drop of rain in Yunshan Village." The head of the village stopped talking.

The faces of those present all turned gloomy, and they all knew what this meant.

Shen Lianxin doesn't farm, so she doesn't know much about it. She knows that this is a sign of a severe drought, but she has no idea how severe the drought will be.

Seeing Shen Lianxin was a little confused, Old Man Shen explained, "Today's drought is quite serious. On weekdays, villagers can harvest 300 kilograms of grain from one mu of land, pay 100 kilograms of tax, and the remaining is enough for one person to live. Each family is calculated based on the number of people, and each person can get a maximum of two mu of land. In a good year, they will not go hungry. But today the wheat in the field is wilted, and there is a serious lack of water. I am afraid that one mu of land will not be able to harvest 100 kilograms of grain."

Upon hearing this, Shen Lianxin's face darkened. "The harvest is so bad, can the government reduce some taxes?"

The head of the village shook his head and sighed, "I heard that there was a war in the north, and the border areas are in danger. Many places are conscripting soldiers and collecting grain. Not only will the tax not be reduced this year, it may even increase."

"what?"

When everyone heard this, they were shocked. A famine was coming, and instead of reducing taxes, they were increasing them. How could the people survive?

The weather is getting colder and the autumn harvest time has arrived. However, due to the severe drought this year, grain production has dropped severely. Many villagers choose to harvest grain later, thinking that if they let the grain grow in the fields for a longer period of time, perhaps it will grow more.

However, the growth of crops is closely related to the environment and soil. In years of severe drought, it will be useless even if the crops grow in the fields for a long time.
