Traveling through ancient times, storing supplies and not fleeing famine

The first ray of sunlight in the early morning shines on the earth.

The small courtyard of Xia Shengsheng's house has already been busy.

Several children have become accustomed to getting up on time every day.

After running around the yard a few times, Ercheng and Ye Chao began to practice martial arts.

Yiyi took her younger brothers and sisters to feed the chickens, rabbits and the sheep they had bought earlier.

Less than half a month after the sheep arrived at Xia Shengsheng's house, it gave birth to a lamb.

A total of three lambs were born, two males and one female.

When the cubs were born, Xia Shengsheng had never delivered an animal before, so she specially asked the Ma Kui family to help.

Ma Kui's family raised a goat a few years ago and also delivered a goat baby, so they have some experience.

Xia Shengsheng gave Ercheng and Ye Chao some pointers on some martial arts moves, then went to squeeze some goat milk to prepare breakfast.

Now, Xia Shengsheng no longer has to sneak out to get milk.

Goat milk has high nutritional value. Although it has a bit of a smell, it tastes much better if you add some almonds to it when cooking.

Every morning Xia Shengsheng would cook for the children, and add the essential eggs, meat and vegetables, so the nutritional combination was very balanced.

After two months of treatment, Yiyi and her four brothers and sisters are finally no longer as pale and thin as they used to be.

Their skin has become much whiter and they have gained some flesh on their bodies. They are no longer as skinny as before.

Sicheng originally had a big head and a small body.

Now I have gained flesh on my body, and drinking milk and goat's milk every day has helped my bones grow better.

He already looked like a normal child.

Xia Shengsheng no longer had to worry about Sicheng running too fast or playing too hard and breaking his head again.

The morning breakfast was simple and nutritious, with each person having a bowl of cooked almond milk, a boiled egg, and steamed dumplings made by Xia Shengsheng.

The meal was very satisfying.

Usually after breakfast, Xia Shengsheng would teach the children to read or write.

After teaching it once, Liu Yiyi would review it with her younger siblings.

But today I have to go to the city, and the round trip is quite far.

In order not to waste time, we set off directly after breakfast.

Before eating, Liu Yiyi and her siblings had already prepared the day's food for the livestock.

It's very easy to find if you put it in the yard.

Xia Shengsheng asked the children to lock the doors of their rooms.

Yiyi and Shanshan still lived in the same room as planned.

There were two large wardrobes, two dressing tables, a bookshelf and an embroidery frame in the room. Although it looked like there were many things, there were enough rooms so it was not crowded at all for two girls to live in.

The three boys were divided into two rooms, and there was an empty room reserved as a guest room.

After the house was built and before moving into the new house, Xia Shengsheng asked the three boys to play with the palms and backs of their hands to decide who would live in the same room with whom.

In the end, Ye Chao and Sicheng shared a room, and Ercheng had a room of his own.

Xia Shengsheng locked the doors of several other rooms as well.

He harnessed the donkey cart and drove it out of the yard.

Liu Yiyi walked at the end and locked the outer door.

Only then did a few children get on the bus.

"It's done! Let's go to your Aunt Ma's house first."

Because I may not be able to get back by noon.

Xia Shengsheng asked the Ma Kui family, who lived nearby, to help feed the livestock.

When we arrived at Ma Kui's house, Ma Kui must have gone out to work, and only Ma Kui's family and the children were at home.

"Sister-in-law is at home!

Do you have time today? I want to trouble you with something. "

Ma Kui heard Xia Shengsheng's voice outside the door, and walked over quickly with a smile and opened the door.

"Sister Xia is here. The village chief mentioned yesterday that you were going to recruit workers! I was just about to go and thank you!

The village chief said that you thought of me first, and I don’t know how to thank you enough!”

Among farmers, unless they are particularly lazy, there are few who are unwilling to work outside to earn money!

The money earned can improve the family’s living conditions and save money for children.

"What's there to thank me for? Our two families have a good relationship, so I'll naturally think of you, sister-in-law, if anything happens.

It's about signing a contract. The village chief told you, right? I don't know if my sister-in-law is willing to do it. "

Ma Kui's family hurriedly grabbed Xia Shengsheng's hand. "Yes, of course I am willing. The village chief called us yesterday and told us clearly.

Don't worry, we all know what's going on and will certainly not tell others about your family affairs when working for you.

Not to mention the need to sign a contract, even if we don't sign a contract, we cannot tell anyone about the work we do at your house and affect your own business.

But it’s better for you to sign the contract, so that both of us can rest assured, right? "

Although the agreement restricted the workers who came to work, it also restricted Xia Shengsheng.

If Xia Shengsheng fails to pay wages or fails to pay wages, he will also be punished.

"Look, I've been talking for a long time. You just came to me and asked me for help. What's the matter? I have time. There's not much work in the fields right now. Just tell me if you have anything."

Xia Shengsheng told her that she wanted to ask the Ma Kui family for help in feeding the livestock.

The Magui family agreed immediately.

Xia Shengsheng gave the key to the front door to Ma Kui's family.

She touched Xiaomei's face and said, "When Auntie comes back in the evening, bring some candy for Xiaomei!"

Ma Kui's family smiled and stopped him, "Why bring candy? Xiaomei is already so old, don't spoil her. Go quickly, don't delay things."

Xiaomei is the only child in the Magui family.

After Ma Kui and his wife got married, they were unable to have children.

But the couple has a good relationship and there are no elders in the family who urge them to get married.

The couple had their child, Xiaomei, in the sixth year of their marriage.

I never got pregnant again.

Xiaomei is 8 years old this year, one year older than Shanshan. Although they are of the same age, they have hardly ever played together.

In the past, Shanshan had to help with the heavy housework at a very young age.

Where is the time to go out and play with the kids?

Among the four children in the family, only Sicheng and Huzi and Huangdou from the village are relatively familiar with each other.

The others don’t have many friends in the village.

Xia Shengsheng didn't say much to the Ma Kui family.

He drove a car with a few children and set off for the provincial capital.

Everyone was talking and laughing along the way, and time passed quickly.

Except for Ye Chao, all the other children from Ning'an Mansion have been here before. Although it was their second time, the children could not hide their excitement.

"Mom, look, that building is so tall!"

"Mom, those sisters are dressed so beautifully!"

"Mom, those pretty sisters are still smiling at me."

"mother……"

Xia Shengsheng's face was full of black lines.

He turned the car around and changed direction immediately.

How did you take the wrong road?

Passed by a brothel?

Looking at Sicheng’s silly smile.

I really want to slap him flat.
