Others are fleeing famine, but I am a salted fish

His darling wife, whom he held in his palm and took good care of, had hardly suffered any hardship except for a serious illness caused by the epidemic a few days ago. Now, God seems to be ruthless and is tormenting people as much as possible. He doesn't know when these miserable days will end.

The hunter's wife's cry aroused the suppressed sadness in many people's hearts. After a while, various sobs intertwined, making the area fall into a sad and depressed atmosphere.

Xiaoqiao is now protected by Niu Laogen and his wife. They really fulfilled their promise to Old Man Qiao and loved her like their own daughter. They even gave the last sip of water to Xiaoqiao, who was not related to them by blood, instead of their own son Niu Tietou.

But Xiaoqiao didn't know what he was thinking. He didn't say a word of courtesy to the Niu couple. He took it and poured it into his mouth. After swallowing it, he intentionally or unintentionally gave a provocative look to the Luo family who lived next door to theirs.

It was truly an unobstructed and blatant provocation, and anyone with eyes could see it clearly.

It goes without saying who the bridge is directed at, and those who should understand will understand.

On the Luo family's side, Luo Qianqian, who was sitting between Shopkeeper Luo and his wife, obviously couldn't stand such blunt provocation. She was so angry that she was about to jump three feet high and rush over to fight Xiaoqiao for three hundred rounds.

Shopkeeper Luo and his wife spoiled their only daughter. They knew that the other party was obviously trying to provoke them, but their daughter was not smart enough and walked straight into the other party's trap.

Along the way, the two girls fought against each other openly and secretly for countless rounds.

The two families saw it, but after all, it was just a minor quarrel between the little girls, and it didn't cause any big trouble, so everyone tried to persuade them to reconcile and keep the situation peaceful.

Moreover, at that critical moment, when the lives of the Niu couple were hanging by a thread, Niu Tietou was held tightly by the frightened Luo Qianqian and could not break free. He could only watch the gleaming tip of the knife falling towards the Niu couple. If it were not for Old Man Qiao who died in their place, the Niu couple would have died that night.

Xiaoqiao is the only bloodline left by Old Man Qiao. The Niu family has received such a great favor, so how can they not take better care of Old Man Qiao's only daughter?

After that man-made disaster, Niu Tietou also distanced himself from his daughter. If this continues, it is unclear whether the two families can ever become relatives. Now they can only hope that they don't become enemies again.

Without the troublemaker Chen, the headman's family is now able to remain stable, though like Ergouzi who lost his mother, he is a little depressed and listless.

Because Doctor Qiao's family and Lin Laosan's family have livestock, both families not only have to worry about the people, but also have to worry about the livestock.

The calmest ones among all the people were probably Doctor Li and the mute medicine boy.

One of these two people is old and has just recovered from a serious illness, so he has no energy left, so even if he wants to be anxious, he can't muster the energy.

The mute medicine boy was used to being silent. When he had nothing to do, he was like a transparent person, silent and motionless. He would only show his head when he needed to do hard work, or when he encountered a snake cave or a pack of wild dogs in the mountains and needed to exert some strength.

I wonder what kind of experiences he had to have developed such a taciturn personality.

Maizi finally managed to get two good meals under the secret cooking of Lin Xiaoyue and Lin Zhaodi, but he started to go hungry again like everyone else. Now he didn't even have a bowl of cereal porridge, and he had only drank a mouthful of water since morning. The little guy was already crying with hunger.

The whole family was very anxious. Even though the fourth and fifth children took turns using their best-kept White Rabbit and Lux ​​racks to coax the little one into a sweet mouth, the little one was still hungry and cried with tears and snot all over his face.

Lin Xiaoyue was also anxious, but the broken space was still offline, so it was useless even if she was anxious to death.

Lin Dahua was extremely anxious. She turned her back, lifted her skirt and tried to feed Xiaomaizi. However, she had no milk since she finished her confinement period. Moreover, it had been a year since then. How could she squeeze out any milk?

No matter how much Xiaomaizi sucked until her face turned red and her cheeks hurt, it was of no use. It was useless. She would cry even harder.

Miao felt sorry for her daughter, so she hurried over, pulled off her eldest daughter's clothes, and wanted to take Xiao Maizi away.

But Lin Dahua cried with tears all over her face and refused to let go no matter what, for she was afraid that the child's small body could not bear it and would starve to death at any time where she could not see him.

"What should we do, Sanya? Will the gods still refuse to forgive us?"

Erya Lin Zhaodi had red eyes and leaned close to Lin Xiaoyue and asked in a low voice.

Lin Xiaoyue shook her head helplessly. She tried to communicate with the space every once in a while, but the broken space could clearly sense it. Even the supplies in the space were intact, lying there quietly, but they could not be shaken. They were as hard as the stones in the toilet.

It was so smelly and hard that she was so anxious that she wanted to hit it hard with a chisel.

In the end, Xiaomaizi cried so hard that Miao asked Lin Dahua to pick out the rice grains and millet from the miscellaneous grains, put them in her mouth, chew them with saliva, and then pass them to Xiaomaizi's mouth.

At this time, not to mention that the person did not brush his teeth or wash his face, there is still a smell of breath, and even there is not much saliva.

Even though Lin Dahua tried her best to secrete saliva and chew the rice and millet into pieces, the dry rice paste was still difficult for Xiaomaizi's delicate teeth to swallow.

Therefore, the little guy tried his best to use his little tongue to push out the dry and sticky lump mixed with coarse grains in his mouth.

"Wheat...my wheat, I know it doesn't taste good, but you have to eat it. You have to eat a little bit, listen to me, I beg you..., just have a bite."

Lin Dahua cried and used her fingers to wipe the paste that Xiaomaizi had pushed out with her tongue into her little mouth. The mother and daughter, one of them shook her head hard to push it away, while the other circled her little head and tried to stuff it into her little mouth. Both of them were crying badly, but they still had to use up their last bit of strength to survive.

After a long struggle, Xiao Maizi finally managed to force herself to eat three mouthfuls of the mixed grain porridge thanks to her mother's persistent efforts.

At this time, there was no need to worry about whether the child could digest the food. Everyone just hoped that the child could eat even one more bite, which would give him a little more hope of survival.

After feeding Xiaomaizi, Lin Dahahua and Miao were sweating profusely and were so tired that they couldn't even cry.

Under Miao's persuasion, the fourth and fifth children also reluctantly stuffed two handfuls of grains into their mouths and chewed them dry. They tried to stretch their little necks and swallow the crumbs stuck in their throats.

Seeing his wife and daughter in such difficulty, Old Man Lin couldn't help but redden his eyes. He opened his mouth and silently shed hot tears towards the sky.

They say there is always a way out for everyone. Oh, God, please open your eyes and look at these poor people.

They do not seek glory or wealth, they just hope that God will have mercy on them and show them a way out.
