Ordinary happy life

Chapter 147 The End

"Father, there is some cornmeal, salt and sugar here. It's not much, but if you save a little, you can eat it for a few days. I will try to buy some more in a few days." After Zhang Dayong left Village Chief Li's house, he went to Lin's house and brought it to Lin's house. Send a piece of food to the Lin family.

Lin Han looked at the cornmeal, salt and sugar brought by Zhang Dayong, and said seriously, "What are you doing? There is still food at home. Take these back quickly."

Father, I must have only potatoes and corn left at home now." Water can also be used as food, right? Potatoes and corn are fine if eaten for a short period of time, but they are not nutritious if eaten for a long time. Even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about the children. They are still young, how can they grow without nutrition? Grow taller." Zhang Dayong knew that he had nothing to say to elders like Lin Han, and they would only listen to the younger generation.

Sure enough, as soon as Zhang Dayong mentioned a few children, the expression on Lin Han's face changed and became a little tangled. Looking at the children sitting quietly aside, I thought that they were usually naughty and wanted to slap their butts, but now their eyes were dull, their faces were a little ugly, and they rarely moved every day. Is it because they don't want to play around? No, they just don't have the energy to play around. Now every household is having a hard time, and the same is true for the Lin family. Although Lin Han and others save the good food for a few children, But what good stuff is there? The children can't even fill up every day.

"Hey, I accepted it shamelessly. It's because I don't have the ability." Lin Han is a face-saving person. Letting him receive help from his son-in-law is almost like killing him, but for the sake of his descendants, he can only be generous. Accept this relief food with shame.

"My father is joking. You are an elder. If I don't have the ability, that's it. If I have the ability but don't help, then what will happen to me? Then I will go back first. Brother Qin and the children are still waiting for me at home." After the delivery was delivered, Zhang Dayong stood up and prepared to leave, thinking about Lin Qin and the two children.

"Okay, you can go back and be careful." Lin Han responded.

Lin Dazhu and Lin Erzhu personally sent Zhang Dayong out, with shame written on their faces. The two men were not able to support their families and had to rely on the help of their brother-in-law.

Zhang Dayong didn't say anything, he just patted Lin Dazhu and Lin Erzhu on the shoulders respectively.

"Boss, how much water is there at home? Can you save some and make some noodles for the children?" Lin Han handed the cornmeal to Bai Xiuniang and told her to take it to the kitchen and put it away.

Bai Xiuniang thought about the amount of water left and said, "If we drink less water today, we should be able to save water for making noodles. But we can't make soup noodles. Mixed noodles should be okay." "

Then we won't drink it today. You won't die if you don't drink water. Several children haven't had a good meal for a while, so today also makes them happy." Lin Han said with a pat on his thigh.

"Hey." Bai Xiuniang would naturally not object. Parents would not only go without water for a day for their children, but they would also go without water for three days to give their children a delicious meal.

Lin Han glanced at the cornmeal and said, "There's not much cornmeal here, just leave it for the children to eat. We'd better wait for potatoes and corn." "

Father, let me make you a bowl too." Lin Han's age As he got older, his body was no longer as strong as before. Since the severe drought, Lin Han's body had become weaker.

Li Mo also advised from the side, "Father, yes, you should also eat a bowl. You have been coughing frequently recently and have lost a lot of weight, so you need to take a supplement."

Lin Han waved his hand and refused, "No. , I haven't reached that point yet, so I'll keep it for the children. Okay, stop talking and go cook."

Bai Xiuniang and Li Mo looked at each other and sighed, but they also knew Lin Han's He is stubborn and just wants to talk to Lin Dazhu (Lin Erzhu) at night and ask them to persuade him.

"I'm back, look what I brought back!!!" After Zhang Dayong returned home, he happily showed Lin Qin the cornmeal.

Lin Qin opened the bag and saw that it was cornmeal. He said happily, "Cornmeal, we haven't eaten cornmeal for a long time." "

You can make something delicious later and let the two children have a good meal today." ." Zhang Dayong said.

"Okay, let me think about which pasta can be made without too much water." Lin Qin walked to the kitchen while carrying the cornmeal.

Lin Qin thought for a while and prepared to use it to make little ears. Knead the cornmeal into a thicker texture. Although the texture would not be as good, it would still be edible. Lin Qin doesn't cook several bowls together, but cooks them one bowl at a time so that he doesn't use too much water. After cooking, he doesn't make soup and just mixes it dry.

Because there were already seasonings in the little ears, Lin Qin did not cook any food, and the family of four just gathered around the table to eat the little ears. Although it is simple, it is a very enjoyable meal for a family of four. After the severe drought began, people in the village took their rice to the town and replaced it with potatoes and sweet potatoes, plus the corn at home. Although Zhang Dayong left some rice at home, he ate potatoes or sweet potatoes most of the time. Lin Qin couldn't remember the last time he ate cornmeal. It always felt like a long, long time had passed.

"Dad, the little ears are so delicious. Can I continue to eat the little ears tomorrow???" Zhang Jingcheng raised his face from the bowl, with soup all over the corners of his mouth, and looked at Lin Qin with bright eyes.

Lin Qin took out the handkerchief he carried with him and wiped the corners of Zhang Jingcheng's mouth, and said with a smile, "Yes, of course I can." "That's

great, I can eat little ears again tomorrow." Zhang Jingcheng clapped his hands happily and said.

Zhang Dayong and Lin Qin felt happy and sad when they saw Zhang Jingcheng's happy look. They just hoped that the drought would pass soon so that the two children could eat whatever they wanted without having to eat a bowl of pasta as if it was Chinese New Year.

"Although I expected that the price would be suppressed, I didn't expect that the price would be so severe. It was not even two-thirds of the previous price. If I didn't want to buy some rice and noodles for my family, I would really be reluctant to sell." I spent the evening with my two children. After falling asleep, Zhang Dayong hugged Lin Qin and lay on the bed chatting.

"The pressure is so low. Those wealthy people have really dark hearts." Lin Qin said indignantly.

Zhang Dayong sighed and said, "It's not surprising. Whose money was blown by the strong wind, and the current situation is like this. Naturally, they also want to save a little bit." "All the money they

earned today was exchanged for cornmeal. Are you done???" Lin Qin asked.

Zhang Dayong nodded and responded, "I also sent some cornmeal, sugar and salt to Uncle Li's family and your father's family. Now everyone is having a hard time, so I thought I could help." "

Brother Dayong, thank you. You." Lin Qin didn't expect Zhang Dayong to send cornmeal to the Lin family, and was deeply moved.

Zhang Dayong hugged Lin Qin's hand tightly and said, "Fool, what can I thank you for? It's your father and my father. It's okay if I don't have the ability. If I have the ability, why don't you help me?" "

No matter what. Anyway, I still have to thank you." Lin Qin leaned into Zhang Dayong's arms and said sweetly.

Zhang Dayong fondly touched Lin Qin's head, put one hand on Lin Qin's belly, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

The amount of cornmeal was not large, and Lin Qin did not dare to eat it. He only made a meal every now and then to give the children a change of taste. This made the two children very happy.

Zhang Dayong still runs to the mountains every day, and because Zhang Qiong'an has recovered and Lin Qin's tires are getting more stable, Zhang Dayong spends more and more time in the mountains, sometimes spending the whole day in the mountains. But even so, at the end of the day, there are still many empty-handed returns, and Zhang Dayong will become a little discouraged. Whenever this happens, Lin Qin will quietly accompany Zhang Dayong. He would not say anything nice to comfort Zhang Dayong, but silently held Zhang Dayong's hand and told him that he was always there.

Lin Qin's silent companionship allowed Zhang Dayong to quickly cheer up and set off to the mountain with his bow and arrow as usual the next day.

Occasionally, Zhang Dayong would catch some pheasants or hares, but instead of selling them, he would directly send them to the Li family and the Lin family for a toothpaste to supplement their nutrition.

Now it can be said that all three families are weighing on Zhang Dayong alone. In addition, due to the hot weather and rapid water loss, Zhang Dayong lost weight at a speed visible to the naked eye, which made Lin Qin feel very distressed. But no matter how distressed Lin Qin was, there was nothing Lin Qin could do except find a way to cook something delicious for Zhang Dayong with the only things at home, and save a little more water for Zhang Dayong to drink.

Sometimes Lin Qin would feel guilty that he couldn't help at all. Whenever this happened, Zhang Dayong would hug Lin Qin and tell him that as long as he was by his side, it would be the greatest help to him.

Although life was difficult, with the joint efforts of the three families, they managed to survive. Compared to some families who have begun to eat grass roots, tree bark and Guanyin soil, the three of them are already very happy. It's not like Li Teng never thought about taking the villagers to find water sources or dig a new well, but they didn't know where to find water sources, and they didn't know the technology of drilling wells, so they could only give up this idea and wait for God to open his eyes. Give them a way to survive.

God may have a bad attitude sometimes, but he will never leave no way for people to survive. When time quietly slipped to October, the temperature in the air finally began to drop. Although it still didn't rain, the drop in temperature still made the villagers excited.

They thought it would rain soon when the temperature dropped, and the severe drought would be over. But who knew that there was still no movement until mid-October. The villagers thought it was God playing a joke on them. One by one, they completely broke down, cursing God crazily, or beating themselves up at home, whatever.

By the end of October, God might have thought enough. The villagers who had been watching the sun for several months found that the sun was gone and replaced by a dark cloud.

The moment they saw the dark clouds, everyone subconsciously rubbed their eyes, fearing that everything was just their imagination. When they found that no matter how many times they rubbed their eyes, the dark clouds were still there, the villagers finally realized that the drought was over.
