Chapter 10 Don't let the boss and his family watch
Ye Feng is listening to his daughter.
"...In spring, I went up the mountain to dig bamboo shoots with my elder brother, but I only dug two of them. My elder brother took me in and passed through a bush. If my elder brother hadn't woken up, we would have fallen."
"Cliff?"
"Not counting, about seven or eight meters, it is a depression. There is a pond at the bottom. The leaves on it now look like the leaves of wild water chestnuts."
"At that time, my elder brother and I just wanted to catch fish, but the water was very deep and there was no tool to catch fish. However, my elder brother came back from fishing every now and then."
Ye Feng weighed, "Can you remember?"
“The general route is impressed.”
Ye Feng thought about it for a moment. There was no such thing as a water chestnut in his original memory, and it seemed that no one in Yejia Village knew about it.
"A Yin, it seems that our Chinese people have a long history of eating water chestnuts. Why isn't anyone mentioning it here?"
"The information is so blocked now. Besides, the people before the Han Dynasty were not worthy of eating water chestnuts. Although this dynasty was not enough, it should also be related to the lack of information communication."
To put it bluntly, no one knows it.
Ye Feng was excited and praised his daughter for being a little lucky star. He picked up a bucket and took her back to the cave.
On the way, Ye Luoyin discussed, "Dad, the mice are full of bacteria and parasites. We don't have any medicine now. If we get the plague, we will be done..."
"That's not the rat in the gutter, it's the bamboo rat in the bamboo forest. People grow up with bamboo and grass, and they're called bamboo-root pigs. In such a disaster year, they'll be eaten and extinct. Don't worry, I've dealt with it very cleanly
.”
After saying this, Ye Feng said again, "Do you believe it or not, give this thing to your grandparents, and they will cry even if they are happy..."
I believe, I have also seen them eat bugs in the field.
Ye Luoyin dared not say anything.
Some disaster victims can cook their own children, so what else can't be eaten?
Ye Feng put down the bucket, and Liu Niang over there began to prepare to boil water.
My mother-in-law said that she couldn't drink raw water from now on, and she had to boil it and drink it.
Ye Feng pulled Sun Cuizhi over and said that he wanted to take out the water chestnuts with his daughter. Now in August, the water chestnuts are almost ripe. Sun Cuizhi's eyes are lit. Water chestnuts are a good thing.
She told them that leaves and rhizomes can be eaten, and they can be brought back all the time.
Ye Luoyin poured cold water on, "It may be possible that they were all gone."
Sun Cuizhi, "No, I haven't heard from the villagers talk about the thing "Lingjiao."
Ye Feng and Ye Luoyin quickly entered the bamboo forest. Ye Luoyin carried the basket on his back, and Ye Feng carried his daughter on his back in the muddy mountain road.
Sun Cuizhi remembered her daughter's straw sandals, put the electric shock stick, and prepared to weave straw sandals with Liu Niang.
She doesn't know, but Liu Niang is very skilled. The straw sandals at home are all made of Liu Niang.
Sun Cuizhi was thinking about improving it, such as if the sole was thicker, could the upper be braided into solid surfaces, and could put some soft things inside to avoid getting your feet smeared.
After such a request, Liu Niang became interested and became less afraid of Sun Cuizhi.
At this time, the old house of the Ye family.
Ye Baoshan has two sons, and the eldest son was separated by him.
Now he lives with his second son Ye Hai.
Ye Hai has two sons and two daughters.
The eldest son Ye Dalang and Ye Erlang went to build the embankment together.
At this time, at the foot of Ye Baoshan was a small bag of ground bark powder, a handful of dried vegetables and half a basket of newly dug out wild vegetables and grass roots, plus more than a dozen black salt particles, all of which were placed at this time.
Together.
"Everyone eats at home. If you go up the mountain, you can't eat alone. Everyone has nothing. You can't eat, let the eldest family take a look..."
Old Mrs. Ye said gloomyly, "Your brother is not a thing, but he did not leave you. He either stayed away from you or had to recognize these foods and eat them together."
The second wife Wang couldn't help it, "Mom, your eldest grandson hasn't come back yet. The whole family only has something to eat. In addition, the eldest brother's family of four, how many days can you eat? Dalang comes back and waits to be hungry.
Dead?”
Wang's heart is stuck these days.
My husband is a kind-hearted person. My mother-in-law secretly took rice bran for my elder brother's house, but he didn't say a word.
But her eldest son has not married yet, so he is not as pregnant as Erlang's wife. I don't know what it is like when I go there, but I can't go hungry after I come back.
Old Mrs. Ye wanted to curse a few words, but she had no strength long ago. Besides, the second daughter-in-law was thinking about her eldest grandson and said, "But what your elder brother heard is true, are you fleeing or waiting at home.
Death?"
Ye Hai spoke, "Dad, mom, what if my brother lies, what if he doesn't have food at home, maybe he just cheated us up the mountain? You've never been fooled, mom, your silver bracelet was cheated away by him.
Is that true?”
After saying that, he squatted on the ground and didn't say anything.
If you don't go up the mountain, you will have to be soaked in water if you get out of the flood. But if you go up the mountain, the eldest and his family are waiting for them to go up. This is not enough to eat for three days.
His three children were so hungry that they really didn't want to share this little bark powder with their elder brother's house.
There was a dilemma.
Ye Baoshan also sighed. The family members were unwilling to help Zhou Ji Lao's family. He was not angry. It was all done by the boss himself, so no wonder others.
Old Mrs. Ye said, "If you go, leave now, and go up the mountain after eating, that's not something that people do."
Turning around and going into the house and starting to clean up your own and the old man's things.
I took all the things I could take, and all the things I couldn't take were locked in her room.
Ye Baoshan said, "I'll go and tell the leader of the clan and say, you guys will clean up."
Looking at the second son squatting on the ground, "Your brother said that all the wealthy families in the town have run away. This may be true. Yesterday, your uncle and I went to the town. It was noon. The grain shop has not opened yet, maybe they are also
I know the news and prepare to run away. The fire is ruthless. It is really a flood. Our village is waiting to be flooded. Anyway, I don’t force this matter. You can stay at home. My mother and I have old arms and legs. I really want it.
It is your burden to get out of the flood. It is better to go up the mountain to hide first. If you don’t eat much, just me and your mother will do it.”
After saying that, he hurried towards the clan leader's house.
The house is also barely covered, and there is no cabinet at home, so it is natural to clean up. Old Mrs. Ye rolled up the kang mat, and behind it were Erya and Sanya, who helped her carry her luggage and bags.
Old Mrs. Ye wanted to share the food. Ye Hai glanced at Wang and stomped his feet, "Mom, let's just leave, let's make a joke, I'll go with you."
Wang still wanted to speak, Ye Hai glared at her and scolded, "How about you split your share and stay at home, and you don't take up your rations, can you do it?"
Old Mrs. Ye sneered, "I'm so mean to give you food to me. I'll pack up my food quickly, or I'll go back to your parents' home."
