food crisis [end times]

Chapter 36 [1st update in a row]

Zhou Zhenxing's family sold mushrooms, so he became famous in the village.Zhou Zhenxing also strikes while the iron is hot and wants to marry his two sons as soon as possible.Perhaps it was because mushrooms were too expensive, which made their family's status rise for a while.In the past, I was still worrying about my son getting a wife, but now I have to pick and choose among the girls, and I insist on finding a good match for my son.

If it was someone else, Xiang Luo really wouldn't join in the fun, but hearing that the girl from the second aunt's family was picked up by them in their gossip, Xiang Luo couldn't help but listen to a few more words.

Some people explained that there is no horoscope, and it depends on what the woman thinks. Some people immediately said: "In the past, there must be a choice in all aspects. But in this world, a morsel is a life, and no one has a surplus. Yes. Now people who are about to run out of food at home also ask. At this time, who cares what is going on in the man’s house? It would be great if he could marry the girl out for some food. .”

Xiang Luo sneered after hearing this: "Then it's like selling a girl."

The man was silent for a while, and said with a wry smile: "It's a good thing for a person who is going through a hard time to be sold! If the old man and the old lady have no food, it will be difficult to sell themselves to eat."

All order and civilization begin with a full stomach.I can't get enough to eat, so talking about anything else is just nonsense.

At present, due to heavy snow blocking the mountains, the villagers have lost the supplies sent by the government, and the food stocks of every household have become less and less as time goes by.

At this time, a family that can feed their daughters will naturally sharpen their heads and send their daughters in.

Xiang Luo still has less contact with this village. After all, the family has no worries about food and clothing, so the anticipation of the difficulties outside is greatly reduced.

"Actually speaking, Miss Zhou Wenshu is so beautiful, it's a pity for Zhou Zhenxing's family. His son is too shabby (ugly)."

"The family is all surnamed Zhou after all. It was a family 500 years ago. If you really want to kiss the girl, it will definitely be good."

The surname Zhou is considered a common surname in the village. There are several families with the surname Zhou, but not all of them have relatives.

Xiang Luo listened to their gossip and didn't participate any more.Thinking about going to the second aunt's house when I have time to ask if it really means this.

Although they are separated from each other, they are still a family after all.Her two daughters also played with Xiang Luo when they were young.

There are too many possibilities for Zhou Zhenxing's family to grow mushrooms. At least for now, it seems that he is definitely not a good family.

If Zhou Nana really sees her right, then of course there is nothing else to say.If it's just because his family can grow mushrooms and feel that they can eat enough, then at least they have to wait and see for a few more months.

After the day's shift was settled, Xiang Luo went to the house of his second aunt Xiang Yan in the afternoon with a bag of five catties of vacuum-packed rice and two boxes of canned luncheon meat.

This was probably the first communication between the two sides after Xiang Yan's family returned home.Zhu Yan never came to the door, and Xiang Yan's family of four never took the initiative to contact Xiang Luo again.

In fact, this is not uncommon in rural areas. After all, not everyone likes to go from east to west. Except for those with good relations, more people don’t come to the house for everything. It is normal for a family to walk around only once in half a year.What's more, the world is difficult now, and every household is closed and rarely goes out.

Xiang Yan's house is relatively close to the center of the village. It had been vacant for a few years before, but now seeing the smoke from the burning kitchen, it is much more popular than in previous years.

Xiang Luo knocked on the door outside, and he had to knock very loudly in this windy day to be heard inside.

After a while, Xiang Yan came out wrapped in a down jacket, and ran into Xiang Luo who was carefully looking at the three floors inside and outside the three floors, and asked uncertainly, "Xiao Luo?"

"It's me." Xiang Luo replied, and handed over the things he was carrying.

"Come here and bring anything." Xiang Yan muttered, and locked the door to let Xiang Luo enter the back room.

As soon as he entered the east bedroom, Xiang Luo felt a layer of embarrassment in the air.Xiang Yan's two daughters were lying on the kang and fiddling with each other. When they saw Xiang Luo coming, they just greeted each other and continued to do their own business with their heads down.Zhou Wenshu was sitting by the bed, looking out of the window with a sullen expression, and the people who came in did not look at the door.

The atmosphere was strangely clean, obviously something unpleasant had happened.

Xiang Yan yelled to Zhou Wenshu: "Damn man! Nobody knows who's coming? Xiao Luo came here so easily that he didn't even say hello!"

Only then did Zhou Wenshu turn his gaze around, saw that it was Xiang Luo, and then withdrew the chill on his face: "Xiao Luo is here, sit down, have you eaten yet?"

The relationship between the two of them has always been bad, and it would be good to maintain this kind of superficial harmony.

Xiang Yan also took a look at what Xiang Luo brought, and couldn't help but groan: "This is canned food! Xiao Luo, why do you have it?"

Xiang Luo said casually, "It's my friend's."

"It's still alive! Then it's okay for you to take it out for us!" Xiang Yan looked at the two boxes of luncheon meat, and Xiang Luo looked at her sunken cheeks and knew that she was not living well these days.

Xiang Yan was born with high cheekbones and a little thin, so her cheeks are usually a little sunken, but it doesn't affect the beauty.Now Zhao is thinner than before, and looks more embarrassed than ordinary people.

There is no one who is not thin in this world, and Xiang Luo's family has that condition.

In this world, rice is the most valuable of all grains, and meat is even more valuable than rice.

Hearing her exclamation, Zhou Wenshu hurried over to take a look, and after reading it, his attitude towards Xiang Luo was much more enthusiastic than before.

"You said you came, and you brought this. Is there enough food for the family?" Zhou Wenshu asked.

"It's okay, my buddy has a lot of food. We are also close, they rent my house, I eat and get some as rent," Xiang Luo changed the subject, "Is this a quarrel between you two? "

If there is any problem in a family, in fact, a more perceptive outsider can see it at a glance.What's more, Xiang Luo is not an outsider.

Xiang Yan put the things behind the door, sighed and waited for Zhou Wenshu to take a look: "Don't mention it, isn't it about Zhou Zhenxing's family? I came here yesterday to make a kiss. Your uncle just fell in love with Qian, so he agreed. If the girl is not happy, he will say that the girl is young and ignorant, and it will be fine after passing the door."

Zhou Wenshu immediately said: "Didn't you agree yesterday? You even told me how to eat the mushrooms brought over!"

"That was yesterday!" Xiang Yan's voice became louder, "Isn't that why I thought the girl was embarrassed? Besides, who in the old Zhou family over there don't you know?"

Zhou Wenshu was not happy about this: "What's wrong with our surname Zhou? We owe you?"

Although Zhou Wenshu and Zhou Zhenxing have no blood relationship, they both have the surname Zhou.

Seeing that they were about to quarrel in front of him, Xiang Luo interrupted.I asked about the specific situation.

It turned out that Xiang Luo was right to find the atmosphere awkward as soon as he came in, because Qian Shurou had just left.

Someone came to talk about the matchmaking yesterday, and both Xiang Yan and his wife thought it was reliable.There is little food in the family, and the two eldest girls will get married sooner or later. Finding a family that does not worry about food and drink is a blessing.

At first, Zhou Nana disagreed, but in fact, it was not within the scope of her parents' consideration.After all, this world is not as good as before. Love, character and family background are put aside, and the key is to have enough food.

But today Qian Shurou came to make peace again.Everyone in the village has heard about Qian Shurou. She can greet people with a smile.Either it is owed to the other party, or the meat is to be torn from the other party's hand.

Therefore, Xiang Yan, who originally thought this matter was reliable, felt that something was wrong when she saw Qian Shurou's enthusiasm with a smile on her face.In addition, Qian Shurou caught Zhou Nana and boasted Zhou Zhenxing's son a flower in an attempt to give her xn to get her to agree to the marriage.Xiang Yan even felt that this marriage was a trap waiting to be drilled.

There is no other reason, but the words Qian Shurou are enough to put them here!

So the more Qian Shurou tried to persuade Zhou Nana aggressively, and the more disgusted Zhou Nana was, the more Xiang Yan felt that this matter could not be done.

So Xiang Yan, who was still persuading her daughter with "everything is for your own good" and "you are still young" the day before, immediately changed her position after Qian Shurou came to help her daughter deal with Qian Shurou's pig teammate husband.

The result, of course, is to break up unhappy.Qian Shurou said a few sour words and was invited away. Zhou Wenshu didn't know why his daughter-in-law was having a temper tantrum. On the contrary, Zhou Nana, who was the protagonist, breathed a sigh of relief, but also curled up in a bad mood and didn't want to talk to anyone. .

Xiang Luo almost didn't laugh out loud when he heard this.As soon as I heard that she wanted to kiss, I immediately felt that there was something wrong with it.It can be seen how much psychological shadow Qian Shurou brought to Xiang Yan.

After Zhou Wenshu waited for Xiang Yan to finish speaking, he asked Xiang Luo to help him speak: "Aren't you saying that this brother and sister are also kind? There is no shortage of food in the family now, and your little sister will be able to eat enough when she gets married, right? Just because If you don't deal with people, you won't let your daughter marry? Or else, women are narrow-minded, and even a little personal grievance will be ignored by your daughter in the future."

This sounds a little ridiculous, Xiang Luo glanced at Zhou Nana who was sitting in the kang, and said, "Don't you guys feel a little anxious to get married over there?"

As soon as these words came out, Zhou Wenshu and Xiang Yan were startled.

Xiang Luo continued: "Leave everything else aside for the time being. It stands to reason that with his family's conditions, there are not many people who come to the door and want to get married recently. Why did they fall in love with our girl?"

Zhou Wenshu's smile froze a little, but he still said, "How can it be because of what? You fell in love with my girl?"

"Has he met Nana?" Xiang Luo asked, "Especially after she grows up, not many people in the whole village have seen Nana. Why are you so sure it's her? Even my third aunt invited me here Make up. How anxious is this?"

The amount of information in these words is too great, Zhou Wenshu was speechless for a while, Xiang Yan immediately became more serious: "You mean... something is going on here?"

Xiang Luo smiled and said, "I can't say. I can only say that it doesn't look right. It's your girl, and you have to think about it yourself. We all know who my third aunt is."

Xiang Luo said that it is not good to meddle too much in other people's affairs.

Only then did Zhou Nana speak: "Anyway, I don't like her. It's useless at first glance, and she's still talking bad about you."

Zhou Nana was talking to Xiang Luo, Xiang Luo raised his eyebrows: "What did she say?"

The author has something to say: Zhou Nana finally spoke: "Anyway, I don't like her. It's useless, and she's still talking bad about you."

Zhou Nana was talking to Xiang Luo, Xiang Luo raised his eyebrows: "What did she say?"
