The uncle's family eats and sleeps in the shop on weekdays. It is not a problem to have enough food, and the food is not used.

But Li's natal family lived in the town. They were just a well-off family with no land. They were originally considered a well-off family. However, due to the disaster, the price of food skyrocketed, and the family did not have much money left to buy food.

Nowadays, I rely on my daughter's family to help me when I'm hungry, but Uncle Yun also works for his employer, and the wages are limited. Now that food prices are too high, the only thing I can help is to ensure that the family doesn't starve to death.

These two bags of potatoes and sweet potatoes were of great help. How could Mrs. Li be unhappy?

After seeing off her uncle's family, Mrs. He sat in the room in a daze. She thought that Ms. Li could go back to her parents' home to visit her, but her parents' home was too far away. She only went back once in so many years after Tong Yun Laosan got married.

Now that there is a severe drought, I don’t know what’s going on at home. Although there are fields and land there, there is no Duobao River in Baohe Village. The drought must be worse than here.

Mei Niang comforted her for a few words, knowing that the situation was not good, but it was useless to rush. At this time when everyone was in danger, it was impossible for them to travel across mountains and rivers to visit.

When officers and soldiers are stationed in the town, there will be incidents of people snatching food and killing people. Who knows what the situation is like in the He family.

Mr. He also knew this very well and sighed for a while.

Mei Niang returned to her house, holding in her hand the three taels of silver given by Yun Xuan. Yun Xuan was afraid that his third uncle would not accept the money if he found out, so he told Mei Niang not to tell anyone about it until he bought the cow.

Mei Niang also collected the money.

I thought about quietly going to the town after the New Year to buy some seeds or livestock to raise. After raising them and getting enough money to buy a cow, it wouldn’t be too late. Anyway, the money could only buy a calf. I couldn’t count on the land this year, and she had space.

We also need a cow to plow the fields.

Space is harvested quickly, and the ground always needs to be plowed. No matter how soft the soil is, it is still a laborious job. You can't let the cow disappear every once in a while. It will inevitably arouse others' suspicion after a long time. It is better to raise a cow inside.

I've been sleeping in the same room as Yueniang for the past few days, and I haven't had the chance to go into the space to have a look. Now that I have some free time, I might as well go in and have a look, maybe I can eat some hot roasted corn rice.

Staring at the ancient jade ring, the scenery in front of me changed, and Mei Niang appeared in the space.

At first glance, Mei Niang was a little dumbfounded.

The corn sticks, which were just over half a foot long before, have more than doubled in size in just a few days. Each stick is almost half a meter long. They are thick and strong hanging on the pole, which makes them happy to look at.

Each pole produced at least four sticks, and the most were six or seven. Are all corns in this era so productive?

After searching the memory of the original owner, Mei Niang seems to have never seen anyone's corn sprouts that can produce so many and big knots. In the final analysis, it is all due to space.

I broke off two sticks and peeled off a piece of the skin. The corn kernels inside were large and plump, and exuded a sweet aroma.

Mei Niang licked her lips. After eating the corn flour pancakes and sweet potato soybeans for so long, the tender corn had a special attraction for her.

I couldn't hold it back for a moment, so I ate the raw corn.

Not to mention, a sweet and tender liquid slides into your mouth. Not only does it not taste unpleasant, it also leaves a fragrant taste in your mouth.

However, Meiniang didn't nibble too much. She still preferred to eat it cooked or roasted.

It's just a pity that she can't tell the origin of the corn at this time of year, so she can't share it with Yun Laosan and He.
