290. Don’t let things turn to the extreme.

Yue Jiuyue carried the basket directly on his back, and took out two pieces of ginger from the basket. It felt like half the basket was missing at once.

Do you only have two pieces of ginger left at home?

How is that possible!

Of course I bought several more from the mall!

"Now, the village chief, take all these gingers!"

Yue Jiuyue placed the basket in front of Village Chief Lin, then took off her bamboo hat and raincoat and hung them on the wall to control the water. She listened to the group of people expressing their gratitude in a hurry, but did not take the things that some people handed her, and watched them leave.

Leaving one after another.

"His aunt, thank you so much! You saved the lives of all the men in my family!"

"Chao Dongniang! Thank you so much! Thank you so much!"

"Thank you Chao Dongniang! When the rain stops, I will ask my son and grandson to come to Kai's house to help dig up the ground. This is a thank you for Kai's life-saving grace!"

"My son is also here to help..."

Village Chief Lin also wanted to say something more, but the women didn't give him a chance. They walked out one by one, squeezing this one and bumping the other one, and squeezed him out.

Everyone has left, and the house is finally clean.

Yue Jiuyue glanced at the muddy ground, went under the stove and took out the ash from the pot, spread a layer on the ground, and then swept it clean with a broom.

In the east room, Ms. Liu, who had been extremely anxious for a long time, looked at Yue Jiuyue who was sweeping the floor and asked:

"Mom, did you really borrow all the ginger from our family? Then, what will our family do? Without ginger soup, what will Xiao Man'er's father and the third and fourth brothers do? What if we get cold and can't go to town?

Going to the doctor to get medicine at the hospital can be fatal!"

Mrs. Liu didn't see how many gingers Yue Jiuyue sent out. The room was so crowded at that time that she couldn't get out of the house at all, and all those people were wet and dripping. She had to be careful about everything now, how could she dare to

Encounter them.

But seeing those old ladies leaving happily one by one, I knew that her mother-in-law must have brought out a lot of ginger, otherwise they would not have left so easily.

I don’t know when her mother-in-law became so generous, but don’t be fooled!

"Don't worry, there's still a lot in the cellar. Based on the usage in the past few days, it can still last our family three to five months. Even though the firewood at home has been reduced by half, we don't know when the rain will stop again.

We have to get some firewood back when the time comes."

With her here, why worry about ginger? What you should worry about is what to do if the firewood is gone.

On rainy days, the humidity in the house is heavy, so a fire must be lit every day, otherwise the kang will be too damp to sleep on.

However, how much firewood has been used and how much is left in the house can be roughly estimated by Mrs. Liu helping to light the fire.

Now, it’s not like cheating too much.

"Ah? There's not much firewood left? Then, how about burning the kang once a day?"

She and Xiao Man'er sleep on the kang. It's as if they have been sleeping on the kang for a long time. Yue Jiuyue sleeps on the bed. The three brothers across from each other sleep on the bed every day, always before dark.

Yue went over and lit a fire in the kang hole.

"It's not enough to just burn it once. You have to drink hot ginger soup for three meals a day. You can't even cut off the ginger soup just to save some firewood."

Yue Jiuyue sighed and looked at Mrs. Liu.

Ms. Liu was stunned.

Yes, isn't she just afraid that Yue Jiuyue will give away all the ginger and the family will have no ginger soup?

Why did she ignore this question while talking?
