Chapter 10 Food from Heaven
The crowd erupted in low moans and the sound of many people swallowing their saliva. The older ones were still able to control themselves, but some kids around Tang Shuyao's age were crying out of greed, nestling in their family members' arms, shedding tears and drooling.
Last night, in order to ensure Tang Qiyue's trust, Boss Hu directly told everyone in the team about their identities and family backgrounds. Without exception, they were all ordinary people who had fled from natural disasters, and they came from all the prefectures and cities. At first, there were only Boss Hu and Lin, but gradually Granny Mo joined, as did mothers and sons who had lost their husbands, orphans who had lost their entire families. More and more people joined, and they were not relatives, but better than relatives, and they were extremely united.
Lin hated the eager look in the eyes of children. She held the corn cake in her hand, not knowing whether to eat it or not. The same was true for Tang San and his companions. They found it difficult to eat when so many people were staring at them.
Lin San swallowed hard and suddenly felt that the pancake in his hand was very sore to the throat.
Is Hu Lao San greedy? He is greedy too, but he knows very well that food is life-saving now, and no one will take it out and share it with others without scruples, so he immediately frowned, "Hurry up and finish eating, we will cross the mountain soon. If you don't eat enough and have no energy to continue the journey, don't blame me, Hu Lao Da, for being ruthless."
When everyone heard this, they quickly ate their biscuits and swallowed them. As for the crying child, he was severely scolded by his family.
Tang Qiyue breathed a sigh of relief and quickly invited the family to eat corn cakes, and then everyone drank a sip of water. They packed up their backpacks and prepared to set off. Their family was the last to join, so they followed at the end of the team. Tang Qiyue was still holding Zhaobao and holding Tang Shuyao behind Lin, while Dad and Big Brother followed at the end to protect them.
They were getting closer and closer, and arrived at the place where Tang Qiyue hid the food yesterday. Seeing that everyone was walking with their heads down and were about to miss it, Tang Qiyue took action directly.
Plop! Lin San fell to the ground in a pile of dead leaves, holding his sore buttocks and cursing, "Who the hell is plotting against me? Come out! I promise I won't kill you!"
Lin San pushed aside the pile of dead leaves and looked up to meet more than a dozen pairs of eyes. The rest of the words were stuck in his throat. Fine! He considered himself unlucky!
"Oh my god! What is that!" Someone exclaimed. Just as Lin San was about to ask someone to pull him up, he was startled by the figure that jumped down. "What are you doing! You..."
"These are sweet potatoes and brown rice!" The man exposed the food in front of everyone and successfully blocked Lin San's anger.
Everyone looked in horror at the sweet potatoes, brown rice and cornmeal piled at the two people's feet. They looked at each other and cried with joy. They were saved!
Boss Hu subconsciously looked in the direction of Tang Qiyue and noticed that the latter also looked surprised. He put aside his doubts and immediately asked people to move all the things up.
After counting, they found that the number was astonishing, enough for them to eat until they reached the next city!
"God will not abandon us! God has eyes!" At that time, the excited people knelt on the ground, kowtowed, and exclaimed again and again.
Tang Qiyue touched her nose, looking calm.
"Sister, there are so many foods here. If we had traveled overnight, would we have eaten them?" Tang Qingshu was inevitably surprised by the food in front of him. He opened his mouth wide and forgot to react.
The people led by Boss Hu on the side heard what Tang Qingshu said more or less, and they felt that it was God who had eyes, otherwise why did they only discover it when they passed by?
The food was safely delivered to the ground. Lin San and another person were pulled up and said anxiously, "Boss, let's divide the food." They were all traveling light. There were no carts or donkey carts in the team. With so many supplies in front of them, it would be easier to divide them equally.
A child asked hopefully, "Mom, can Goudan have cornmeal cakes tonight?"
"Eat! Mom will make you two."
Conversations like these were heard in many families.
Boss Hu pressed his palm and said, "Everyone listen to me, the food should be divided equally, according to the number of people!"
Hearing that the number of people divided according to the number of people was small, the family was immediately unhappy, "Boss Hu, you can't divide it according to the number of people. I am the only one in my family. How much can I get? Let's divide it according to the household."
The families with more people were not happy either. "There are so many households in our team. How much can we get if divided among each household? We may only have enough for one or two meals." If it was divided per person, the families with more people could eat it for several days if they divided it carefully.
Boss Hu was getting a headache from the noise. He subconsciously looked at Tang Qiyue, "What did Miss Tang say?"
At this time, everyone seemed to have just noticed the Tang family. When they thought about the extra family, they would have to get less food. They immediately looked at Tang Qiyue and the others with unfriendly faces, completely forgetting Tang Qiyue's terrifying strength last night.
Tang Qiyue ignored everyone's unfriendly and angry looks and said calmly, "I suggest dividing it according to the number of people. If there is only one person left in the family, each person can get a portion of each food." This way, those with more people can be satisfied, and those with fewer people will not be more dissatisfied.
"Let's divide it this way." Boss Hu agreed without saying a word and directly asked a few women to distribute the food.
Tang Qiyue and her friends each got a portion, which was not a large amount, and could last for three days if they were frugal. Combined with the food they already had, it would be enough for ten days. So Tang Qiyue did not plan to take out any more food or meat, after all, there were so many eyes watching them.
The large group continued to move forward along the rugged mountain road, during which they saw a lot of white bones, which looked to be of animal size. There were a lot of them, and it was terrifying to see. Tang Qiyue held Zhao Bao tightly in her arms to block the scorching sun.
After walking non-stop for a day and a night, they had only climbed half of the mountain. Many children complained of foot pain and the adults were gasping for breath. Upon seeing this, Boss Hu immediately asked everyone to rest on the spot.
Tang Qiyue distributed the kettles to his family members, moistened his throat, and stood on the highest point of the hillside to look into the distance. The view was endless and no city gates or buildings could be seen.
"Miss Tang, did you find anything?" Hu Lao strode over, looked at it together, and licked his dry lips in disappointment. In the past day and night, everyone cooked food to fill their stomachs, and a lot of water had been used up. According to the current situation, they must find water supplies, otherwise they will die of thirst if they don't starve to death.
Tang Qiyue shook her head, "Nothing, let's keep going."
Boss Hu sighed and seemed to be about to say something, but stopped himself. Tang Qiyue noticed it but pretended not to see anything and teased Zhao Bao in her arms.
After a while, Boss Hu said, "Ms. Tang, the team is running out of water. I'm afraid it won't last two days." He knew that the Tang family had a lot of water, which could last for five or six days if they were conserved, but they didn't have any. When they invited him to join the team, they said that everyone should take their own food and share the food they found along the way. Now he, a big man, was asking for it. How shameless!
Tang Qiyue paused for a moment, "Boss Hu, do you want me to take out my own water?"
