At the beginning of the year of famine, the lucky girl of the farm family used cheats to support the

There was a severe drought before, and the entire Pingyang County was out of food. The prices of sorghum flour, corn flour, rice, and white flour shipped from all over the country were ridiculously expensive. Cen Shu was already seven months old, and he could drink milk and eat some porridge. He was so happy every day that he didn't notice that the food at home was almost gone.

Zhao Xiuer: "Mom, didn't the second son buy a few kilograms of food? We had a meal of pancakes last month, and the rest can last for a few days."

Zhou Qiaoping was stunned and said, "Don't worry, we can still eat for seven or eight days. Let Lao Er and the others go and buy some sorghum flour." If they only relied on those few kilograms of flour, they would have finished it long ago. Fortunately, Fu Bao had brought 50 kilograms of corn flour.

Just after finishing breakfast, Li Shuangrong took out one or two taels of silver and took Li Chongwang out.

At noon, the two men came back with some food, all sorghum flour, about three pounds in total, filling up the big cloth bag.

Zhou Qiaoping: "Why did you only buy so little?"

Li Chongwang brought a bowl of water to his second uncle and explained, "Grandma, you don't know. Now many grain stores don't sell anymore. They only supply grain to officials and gentry. Even if they sell it to us, we can't afford it. Cornmeal costs 300 wen per pound, sorghum flour costs 150 wen per pound, and rice costs 500 wen per pound. I begged for a long time before I could buy three pounds from the woman."

Zhou Qiaoping gasped when she heard this. Even if they only ate the worst sorghum noodles, that one tael of silver would only be enough to last for one month. If this continued, those families who couldn't afford to buy food would probably starve to death.

Li Shuangrong handed her the bag of flour and said, "Let's eat less. I'm going to hunt rabbits." It was already cold in the mountains at this season. Besides, how could the villagers find prey if they went up the mountain eight hundred times a day? Even Xiaoshui couldn't hunt any recently.

Cen Shu was in the room but heard it clearly, and the sound of "ah ah" attracted Zhou Qiaoping. Seeing her granddaughter's spirited appearance, Zhou Qiaoping happily shook her, and then she felt something round in her hand. She opened her palm and saw a round steamed bun in the palm of her hand.

The old lady was so frightened that she quickly carried her into the inner room and said softly, "Fubao, there are so many people here. If someone finds out and takes you away, grandma will cry to death and won't be able to find you back."

As Cen Shu grew older, his mental strength became stronger and stronger. Now, it was no effort for him to take out a few steamed buns. Besides, everyone in the house was his family. There was nothing to worry about. At most, he had to be wary of his aunt. The others were happy.

But seeing the old lady's serious face, he just stuck out his tongue and acted cute to fool her.

Zhou Qiaoping: "We are really in trouble now. If it weren't for you, our family would have been broke. Your grandfather is right, Fubao is a little god."

The child in her arms smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed into a crescent shape, which was enough to melt one's heart.

Then the familiar cloth bag was lying quietly on the ground. Zhou Qiaoping went forward to take a look. So much flour! Another fifty kilograms! Even when the harvest was at its best, she couldn't bear to eat so much flour.

She asked hesitantly, "Fubao, can we change to corn flour in the future? White flour is too eye-catching." In the current Qili Village, I'm afraid even the village chief can't afford white flour.

Cen Shu frowned, but the cornmeal was really limited. The last time she bought cornmeal was when she was stockpiling coarse grains. There were only three bags in total, but she had fifty bags of white flour.

Seeing her granddaughter frowning, Zhou Qiaoping quickly said, "Okay, white flour tastes better."

Then she remembered the loss of blessings, and quickly took out three taels of silver, saying, "Good Fubao, can you put the silver away? You took so many things, and grandma is afraid that it will damage your blessings. Put it away, and we will treat it as a purchase. When we make money in the future, we will give him more."

Cen Shu looked at the anxious look on the old lady's face and put the silver into the space. It would make the old lady feel at ease and he could take out more things justifiably. Then, thirty eggs, two hens, and ten kilograms of pork appeared neatly on the kang table.

The old lady's hands were shaking a little. With tears in her eyes, she locked the things in the cabinet and hugged her granddaughter and said, "Take less, take less."

Cen Shu just smiled and refused. The old lady looked happy and angry, and slapped her lightly on the butt.

But the family really needed food. Except for Li Darong who worked as an accountant in the town and did not eat at home, the rest of Li Errong, Li Huaiqing and Li Chongwang had to do farm work, which was tiring and hot, and they had to eat well. The children were growing up, and Zhao Xiuer had always been in poor health, so she should take good care of herself after giving birth... Fortunately, there was Fubao, otherwise the whole family would really starve.

Cen Shu quietly explored the things in the space, took the three taels of silver, and the silver disappeared in an instant. After all, it was three taels! But soon, she discovered the changes in the space.

The pond that had been covered by mist suddenly became clear, and she could see clearly that it was actually a medicinal field. But she couldn't tell what kind of medicine they were.

Cen Shu looked at the medicinal field, her eyes flashed, could it be that these places covered by clouds and mist have always existed, but she had always thought that they were the boundaries of space. In fact, as long as silver is used, it can unlock more. This major discovery made her extremely excited, maybe she could take out more useful things in the future.

Before she could think more, the noisy sound outside the door interrupted her thoughts. Zhou Qiaoping carried her out and saw the neatly dressed woman with a pretty face who looked a bit like Zhao Xiuer.

Zhou Qiaoping looked unhappy and asked coldly, "What are you doing here?"

The woman covered her mouth and coughed a few times, then came up and said, "Mother-in-law, look at what you said. Xiu'er has given birth to a child, and as a mother, I have to come and see it anyway."

Zhou Qiaoping dodged her hand that was about to hold the child and said unceremoniously, "You're coughing, so don't hold her. You might as well pass on your illness to the child."

The woman withdrew her hand awkwardly, cleared her throat unnaturally, looked at Fubao again, and said, "Little Fatty, I'm your grandma, call me grandma."

Seeing that her grandmother didn't like her, Cen Shu rolled her eyes and said, "You are the fat one!" How can you talk to a little girl like that? Humph! She refused to admit that when her mother called her a fat girl yesterday, she laughed so hard that her chin was covered with saliva.

Seeing that the child ignored her, the woman cleared her throat and finally said, "Mother-in-law, life is hard now. Our land has not produced any food, and we can hardly afford to eat."

Zhou Qiaoping: "Everyone's life is different. My family's 20 mu of land can't even produce a grain of food. It's so dry, there's nothing we can do."

The woman started to cry as she spoke, "My husband has been ill for the past few days, and our family is in a very difficult situation. You say that as a woman, I can't support my daughter and my 14-year-old son..."

Zhou Qiaoping: "Just tell me what you want to do."

She sobbed and said, "Can you lend me some food for Xiu'er's father's sake? Not too much, just 20 kilograms will do."

Zhou Qiaoping's face became even colder, and she said unceremoniously: "Twenty kilograms is enough? Why don't you say fifty kilograms? You shameless bastard, you are still considering Xiu'er's face. Do you and your vicious daughter have the nerve to mention Xiu'er!"

Cen Shu was stunned when he saw the grandmother who was fully fired up. Even if the old lady was not polite when she spoke, she would never be so shameless. What happened to her today? And that woman, she was scolded by someone pointing at her nose, but she could still endure it.

But what happened next was that woman really opened the eyes of Cen Shu, who had just arrived in this world.
