So what if you flee from famine? Start all over again and live a good life every day
Chapter 27 Big Meat Bun
Sui He and Grandpa looked at each other, and then said to Second Grandma in unison: "This place is too close to the disaster area. And we don't know when the drought will stop. If the drought continues, there will be more and more refugees, and this place can't support so many people at all."
After hearing this, Second Grandma turned pale. She grabbed Sui He's hand and asked in a trembling voice, "We really can't stay here for long. We thought we could go back after the natural disaster is over."
Sui He comforted her, "Grandma, let's go to Yingcheng. Although Yingcheng is far away, it is relatively close to the south. I heard that it is spring all year round there. Even the food there is different from ours. We can eat white rice, and the court has exempted taxes for five years."
"If we are not used to living somewhere, we can come back after the natural disaster is over."
Grandpa nodded and said, "Yes, old woman, we still have some money, so we can find a village where we can get along well. Let's work harder and try to make sure you and Suisui can eat white rice every day. We have been busy all our lives, so we should try what white rice tastes like."
"Yes, grandma, when the time comes I will go and make a lot of money, and buy you eight or ten maids to serve you. You don't have to do anything, just play with the cat and walk the dog every day." Sui He also hurriedly expressed his opinion
"Go away, go away. How can a girl like you earn money? Once you settle down, I will find you a good family. Women should get married and have children." The second grandmother smiled and patted Sui He's hand.
"I don't want to get married. I will find an obedient and strong man to be your son-in-law." Sui He whispered in the ear of Second Grandma.
"You kid, how can any decent son come to someone's house to be a son-in-law?" The second grandmother teased Sui He with a doting look on her face.
"Oh, I'm still young. Let's talk about it when the time comes. It will definitely happen." Sui He didn't care. She didn't plan to get married. Think about the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, think about the whole family relying on her. Tsk, it's terrifying just to think about it.
"Okay, I'll listen to you. But I'm afraid the journey won't be peaceful." Sui He said confidently, "Don't worry, grandma, I'm very powerful. I'll definitely be able to protect you with me here."
"Sui Sui is still young, why think so much now?" The second grandfather looked at the direction where the people in Linjia Village were discussing, and when he saw that they were also looking over, he nodded and walked to the side.
Second Grandpa packed his luggage and said, "Let's go, we'll go there too."
The few of them soon came to a quiet alley.
"We still plan to go to Yingcheng. Brother Chen, do you want to go with us?" As soon as they stood still, Father Lin spoke quickly, and the others nodded in agreement. It was obvious that they had made up their minds.
"Yes, that's what we plan to do too. Go to Yingcheng." The second grandfather nodded.
Hearing what Second Grandpa said, Father Lin was obviously relieved: "Since everyone has decided, let's go together."
"Okay, let's go buy some things first and meet at the city gate later."
The few of them quickly discussed and separated.
"Don't run around, come with us." Seeing that Sui He wanted to run again, the Second Grandma hurriedly grabbed her, took out an oil paper bag from her arms and handed it to Sui He: "Behave yourself, this is for you to eat."
Seeing that he couldn't escape, Sui He accepted the oil paper package and opened it. Inside the oil paper package was a big, plump, white bun.
"Dumplings?" Sui He looked at Second Grandma in shock. She hadn't seen dumpling for a month.
"Yes, we have eaten. This is reserved for you. Big meat bun. Eat it quickly. It will not taste good if it gets cold." Second grandmother touched her head.
"Hmmmm" Sui He held up the bun and took a big bite. The soft white flour was filled with some unknown vegetables, and there were also some pieces of meat in the vegetables. Although it was a meat bun, it was not a pure meat bun, but it was better than nothing. Such a meat bun was not something that ordinary people could afford. Sui He wanted to swallow his tongue for the aroma of oil.
Sui He finished the big meat bun in his hand in three or two bites. He looked at the oil paper bag in his hand with a sense of unsatisfaction.
"What's wrong? Are you not full?" This bun costs twenty cents, which is really too expensive. Normally, I can't bear to eat the three-cent meat buns, not to mention that it is a year of disaster. Today, when I passed by and thought of Suihe's thin appearance, I gritted my teeth and bought her a bun to satisfy my hunger.
"Grandma, I'm full." Sui He smacked his lips, staring at the oil paper bag without blinking. He was thinking whether he could go to the space to make dumplings.
She may be the first person in history who has space but cannot eat meat. She has to think of a way.
Second Grandma felt a little distressed, but she could do nothing about it. "When we get to Yingcheng, we'll buy some rice and meat buns so you can have a full meal."
"Okay, okay, I still have meat and spareribs to eat." When Sui He heard that he could eat rice, his eyes lit up and his mind was full of meat delicacies.
"Okay. Suisui can eat whatever he wants then." Seeing Suihe happy, Second Grandma also felt much better.
The three of them came to the market, chatting and laughing, and bought some food and oil for the journey, daily necessities, but they didn't buy clothes. Fortunately, there happened to be some clothes for them to change in Suihe's backpack.
Look at this second grandfather and second grandmother bargaining with others, it seems that they can't leave for a while.
After thinking about it, he took out some common vegetables of this era from the space and filled the backpack.
He packed some Chinese cabbage, green vegetables, and beans on his back and walked towards the restaurant on the other side of the road.
"Sir, are you here for a quick meal or to stay overnight?" Seeing Sui He approaching, the waiter immediately came out to greet him. It's true that big cities are different. Even the waiters are more polite.
"Brother, I don't want to eat. I have some vegetables here. Would you like to buy them?" Time was tight, so Sui He didn't say much. He just explained his purpose and opened a corner of the basket to reveal the fresh vegetables inside.
"Oh, these dishes look so delicious. You must have put a lot of effort into preparing them. To be honest, we have a special team in our hotel to prepare them." The waiter was amazed at the fresh and plump vegetables in front of him.
Just when Sui He thought that the store would not accept him, the waiter suddenly changed his tone and continued to speak.
"But it's really hard to find such fresh dishes these days. How about this, I take you to our kitchen and see what the manager says?"
"Thank you very much, brother."
"Hi, you're welcome. Come with me." The waiter said hello to another waiter in the store, and then took Sui He to the backyard.
"Manager Li, where are you?" Before they even reached the backyard, the waiter called out loudly, and everyone in the backyard turned around to look at him.
"Yell, yell, yell, what are you yelling for? You're not helping out in the front, what are you yelling for?" The kitchen curtain opened, and a middle-aged man holding an abacus walked out: "If you're not helping out in the front, what are you doing in the backyard? Are you trying to be lazy?"
