Rebirth of Siheyuan: Starting from escaping famine in 42

Li Qingshan smiled, said nothing, and stared at his elder brother intently.

Li Qingfeng smiled softly and said, "Lao Liu, Sister Wang, we have a lot of food at home. Please help us two brothers to consume it."

Liu Chuanzhi and Wang Shenghua were no longer modest after hearing this. After all, there was no food to sell in the market outside, and their family was almost out of food, so they were very grateful and said, "Thank you, Qingfeng, we won't be polite to you anymore."

Wang Shenghua said gratefully: "Yes! Qingfeng, our family is running out of food now, and we have money but nowhere to buy it."

"These grains are life-saving food now."

Li Qingfeng said: "You're welcome, Lao Liu, Sister Wang, don't forget that we are all revolutionary comrades and should help each other."

After saying that, he took out a cigarette from his pocket, handed one to Liu Chuanzhi, and then lit a cigarette himself while lying next to the oil lamp.

"Yes! Help each other." Liu Chuanzhi said while smoking.

Li Qingfeng then said to Liu Chuanzhi, "Old Liu, my master's restaurant has closed down because they can't buy ingredients."

"I don't have a living right now. My mother-in-law asked my father-in-law to introduce me to a job at the police station. What do you think?"

Liu Chuanzhi thought about it, but before he could speak, Li Qingshan, who was in a daze beside him, heard what he said and interrupted, "Brother, you are going to work at the police station? How come I didn't know?"

"I just found out about this today. Your sister-in-law's mother asked me to wait for news at home." After Li Qingfeng said this to his brother, he turned to look at Liu Chuanzhi, wanting to hear what Old Liu thought.

"Oh!" After Li Qingshan understood what happened, he calmed down and listened to the conversation between the two.

Liu Chuanzhi nodded and said, "Qingfeng, you can go to work at the police station. After all, you have to earn money to live, and you can help organize better work at the police station."

"Yeah!" Li Qingfeng took a puff of his cigarette and continued, "Old Liu, I think so too. Now I'm just waiting for news from my father-in-law."

Hearing this, Liu Chuanzhi smiled and said, "Your father-in-law is still quite reliable."

Wang Shenghua was mending his clothes and said to Li Qingfeng with a smile, "Qingfeng, as the saying goes, a son is half a son-in-law. Just wait for the letter at home. Old Wu will definitely help you."

Li Qingfeng chuckled: "Haha!" He looked at his watch and found that it was almost nine o'clock, so he stood up and said: "Lao Liu, Sister Wang, it's a bit late, let's go home first."

"Okay, you two brothers, be careful on your way back." Liu Chuanzhi and his wife said as they sent the two brothers to the door.

"I understand. You guys go back to your room!" Li Qingfeng said and turned away.

Li Qingshan smiled and said, "Teacher Liu, Sister Wang, we're leaving, you guys go back." After that, he turned around and quickly caught up with his eldest brother.

After the two brothers returned home, Li Qingshan asked his elder brother who was washing his feet: "Brother, I don't have school tomorrow, can you take me out to play?"

After hearing this, Li Qingfeng smiled and asked, "Sure! Where do you want to go?"

Li Qingshan thought about it, then said: "Brother, how about we go fishing?"

"Okay. Qingshan, go to bed early. I'll go back to the room first." Li Qingfeng poured the foot washing water, gave some instructions, and went straight back to the room.

 …

Early the next morning.

After breakfast, the two brothers each took a fishing rod and a bucket, locked the door, and headed towards the Yongding River.

After a while, the two brothers came to the Yongding River and were immediately stunned by the scene in front of them. It was a bit exaggerated to say that people were fishing in groups by the river, but there were people fishing every one meter by the river. They did not expect so many people to come to fish early in the morning.

The two brothers walked along the river for a while, but there was no place to fish.

Li Qingshan asked his eldest brother depressedly: "Brother, what should we do? There is no place to go. How about we walk east along the river?"

Li Qingfeng thought for a while. He didn't expect that the common people would fight so hard for food. He heard people talking about how some people came out to fish in the early morning and still haven't left until dawn?

It seemed that there was no way to fish here, so he thought about taking his brother into the mountains to have a look. Anyway, they both had nothing to do today, so he said to his brother: "Qingshan, how about we go into the mountains to have a look?"

Upon hearing this, Li Qingshan was immediately surprised and said to his elder brother: "Brother, is it true? Can we go into the mountains together?"

Li Qingfeng nodded and said, "Yes, it's true, Qingshan, let's go home and get some things before going into the mountains."

Li Qingshan nodded and agreed, "Okay, brother, I'll listen to you."

Afterwards, the two brothers hurried back home, took two axes and a bundle of ropes. Thinking that they would have lunch in the mountains, they also took six or seven steamed buns and some seasonings. Then they locked the door and set off towards the mountains.

After the two brothers left the city gate, Li Qingfeng led his younger brother Li Qingshan and walked along the path into the mountains.

He didn't want to run into the Japanese on the road again. It would be fine if he was alone, but his brother was with him now? If he didn't take good care of his brother and he got hurt, he would have no place to cry.

The two followed the path to the foot of the mountain and saw many women with their children not far away, digging wild vegetables and collecting firewood in the wild, or looking for other food.

The two brothers looked for a while, then found a small river and slowly walked into the mountains along the river.

As soon as he entered the mountain, his younger brother Li Qingshan started to have fun, looking here and there.

Li Qingfeng thought that it seemed that his younger brother had been stuck in the city for too long. Based on his previous memories, he discovered that when his younger brother Li Qingshan was not busy in his hometown, he would run around in the wild all day, dig out bird nests from trees, go to the river to catch fish, and act like a wild child all day long, often getting beaten and scolded by his father and mother.

My younger brother was a tough kid at the time, and after being beaten and scolded by my dad that night, he didn't change his bad habits the next day and went to play wildly in the wild or in the river.

Li Qingfeng came back to his senses and shouted to his brother with a smile: "Qingshan, watch your feet and see if there are any bugs in the grass before you go."

"I got it, brother." Li Qingshan said, and then ran forward regardless of anything.

After seeing this, Li Qingfeng shook his head speechlessly and said nothing more to him. After all, they didn't go out to play every day, and playing for a day also allowed him to release the boredom in his heart.

Use your mind to observe the environment within 30 meters around you to see if there are any herbs, wild vegetables, wild fruit trees, etc., so as to enrich the species in the space.

When I find them, I will put them all into the space while my brother is not paying attention.

Li Qingfeng also met a few hunters in the forest. They didn't speak to each other. They just nodded and greeted each other and then parted ways.

Not long after the two brothers entered the mountains, they found a small lake. There were only a few people fishing on the shore. It seemed that these people were from the nearby village!

Li Qingfeng called his younger brother and went to an open space with a flat ground and no footprints of wild animals near the shore. He put down his tools and prepared to start fishing.
