249. I’m waiting for the landlord’s father
His father laughed angrily and slapped him on the back of the head.
"I'm still waiting for the landowner's father!"
You brat, you don’t know how high the sky is!
The whole group went up the mountain, and the three Lin Chaodong brothers followed curiously to watch the excitement. Yue Jiuyue went home by himself.
She had old arms and legs, so she didn't want to join in the fun. She would have sunburned and chapped her face, which had been so white and tender at last.
Even though she is a grandma, she is still a grandma who loves beauty! A beautiful grandma!
For lunch, sweet potato leaf porridge made by Liu.
The sprouts from the sweet potato seeds buried beside their house have long since stopped being sold for takeout, and no one would buy them. Even the vines are tender, so they simply pinch them off, wash them, chop them, and cook them into porridge.
.
"There isn't much good food at home, so just make do with it."
In the courtyard, Lin Chaodong invited the guests to sit down and eat.
"Hey, this food is already very good! You didn't know that these sweet potato leaves can be sold for almost ten cents a pound in the county town, which is even comparable to the price of pork in previous years!"
Da Wang, who took the lead, sighed, it was not easy in the disaster years, and everything was so expensive that people could no longer afford it, so why not just run away and try to find a way to survive.
If the two brothers hadn't had the skill of digging wells, they might have had to escape with the villagers.
"Oh! Then this meal for my family is only a penny?! I have a biological mother! I can still eat such an expensive meal! I am so prosperous!"
The fourth child's eyes widened in disbelief.
Their family has to eat at least three or four kilograms of sweet potato leaves for a meal, right? Plus the flour or other grains mixed in, their meal costs more than a penny!
Lin Chaodong suddenly didn't know whether he was happy that he could eat food worth one penny per meal, or sad that he could eat food worth one penny per meal but there was no change from before.
"It's not just that! Although the wheat has just been harvested, the price of wheat has increased several times. This table of food is worth two coins!"
While Er Wang was eating, he couldn't help but interject a few words.
Needless to say, in the past, these wild vegetable leaves were only eaten by poor families. Even though skilled people like them rarely eat white noodles with pork, they rarely eat such bitter wild vegetables. Unexpectedly
One day they will actually think that wild vegetables are a good thing.
"Can anyone still afford it?"
Lin Chaodong murmured.
Their wheat was not sold at all this year. Many families in the village felt that the price of wheat this year was quite high, and many families sold all of it, just to have more money in their hands.
He also had an idea at the time, but his mother wouldn't let him, so he didn't think about selling wheat anymore, since his mother had money anyway.
Now he is happy. Fortunately, he didn't sell it at that time. If he sells it now, the price will be twice as high as half a month ago, right?
Lin Chaodong is already thinking about the good times of selling wheat at sky-high prices.
"Tsk! Then who can afford it? So, those who can't afford it and are afraid of starving to death, don't they all drag their families and go out to find a way to survive!"
Er Wang snorted, but thought of how he and his elder brother happily returned home after finishing the work, only to see an empty house, with only the little niece staying at home alone, waiting for them.
And their biological father, mother-in-law and mother-in-law had already packed up their belongings and no one knew where they had gone.
