Famine Bride: Marry into the best in-laws and win
Chapter 82 Planting sweet potatoes
Shen Baozhu nodded obediently, "Of course I like it."
Every time they ate, Third Aunt would give part of the food in her bowl to her and Sister Qingqing.
Third Aunt is so nice to them, so of course she likes her.
"But I still love mom the most." Shen Baozhu smiled and hugged Lin Luoxia.
Lin Luoxia's heart softened, and she couldn't help but kiss the child.
Shen Lao Er, who had just returned from outside, noticed that his wife was in a bad mood, so he coaxed the child to sleep.
He held her in his arms and stroked her hair, "What's wrong with you today?"
"Now that famine is so severe, what will we do if one day there is not enough food at home?
Lin Luoxia tilted her head slightly, revealing the best half of her face, and snuggled into the man's arms.
She knew that what this man liked most was a woman who was gentle.
Shen Lao Er looked at the woman's beautiful profile, feeling a little itchy and couldn't help but lower his head and kiss her, "Are you worried about this?"
"Don't worry, as long as I'm here, you and the child will be fine."
If a man can't even do this, what kind of man is he?
Lin Luoxia looked up into his eyes and said, "What if one day, we are all gone because of this famine? Tell me, given your relationship with your third brother, will he and his wife treat Baozhu as their own daughter?"
Shen Lao Er was stunned for a moment, and instantly understood her thoughts.
The third brother is now an officer. If one day the family really runs out of food, as long as the third brother's wife takes Baozhu with her and goes to join the army, Baozhu will definitely survive the famine.
Even as long as the third brother doesn't have any accidents, Baozhu will definitely have no worries about food and clothing in the future.
But the prerequisite for all this is that the third brother and his wife can treat Baozhu as their own daughter.
Shen Lao Er was silent for a moment, "I don't know either."
Although he and the third brother had a good relationship since childhood and were brothers, they each had their own families after the third brother joined the army at the age of seventeen.
The affection we have now is certainly incomparable to that of the past.
If they died, the third brother would treat his daughter as his own, but he didn't know.
As for the third son's wife, judging from the past few days, she is a smart person, but it is probably difficult for her to help others raise children.
the other side.
After Xu Manyue returned to the house, she always felt that Lin Luoxia was weird today, but she couldn't tell what was weird about it.
She simply checked some information about Lin Luoxia in the system.
But after looking around, I found only what I knew before.
To sum up, Lin Luoxia is a very scheming and selfish person. When necessary, she can sacrifice something to achieve some goals.
For example, she married Shen Laoer in order to escape from the family of her biological father and stepmother.
In order to achieve her goal, she carefully packaged herself as Shen Laoer's ideal wife, who was obedient and did not interfere with men, and had affairs with many women outside.
Although Xu Manyue didn't know what Lin Luoxia wanted to do, she had gradually become wary of this person.
She went into the small kitchen, made a simple bowl of egg noodles and ate it before going to sleep.
Since the system was upgraded, the reminder sound of the transformation value no longer sounds at any time, but dozens or hundreds of transformation values are recorded every day. These transformation values are enough to support her daily meals.
At present, Xu Manyue is not worried about food and drink.
It was the next day in a blink of an eye.
Shen Lao Da and Shen Lao Er went up the mountain to catch rabbits early in the morning.
Xu Manyue knocked on the old lady's door, "Mom, I'm coming in."
"Come in, the door is unlocked."
After entering, from the outside, the old lady no longer looked as dispirited as she did yesterday, and looked the same as usual.
But Xu Manyue knew in her heart that she still felt sorry for Sister Shen, but the current situation outside did not allow her to be soft-hearted.
"Mom, it's time to plant the sweet potatoes today. My eldest brother and his friends have already gone up the mountain to catch rabbits, so we can't slow down."
The old lady nodded. "That's right. Let's go and clear out those plots of land in the yard and plant some sweet potatoes."
You don't have to plant just one sweet potato, you have to plant two.
First, cut the sweet potatoes into two pieces and bury them in the ground. This step does not require too many sweet potatoes.
The second step is to wait for the sweet potato vines to grow, then use scissors to cut the vines into a shape suitable for cuttings, and then carry out the cuttings in the field.
The extra sweet potato vines can also be used for cooking, and they taste even better than most wild vegetables.
Xu Manyue and the old lady worked in their private plot for a long time and finally tidied up the land.
Next, start cutting the sweet potatoes. Of course, you don’t have to cut them, but there are not many sweet potatoes at home, so cutting them will make better use of them.
Next, bury the sweet potatoes...
……
In less than a day, the sweet potatoes in the private plot had been planted.
In order to prevent anyone from discovering it, Xu Manyue got some withered weeds and leaves and scattered them on the cultivated land to provide a simple cover.
When the sweet potato vines grow out in the future, she will get some branches or something to cover them again.
Soon it was evening.
Boss Shen and his men waited for a whole day and finally got a pair of rabbits, but one of the rabbits had a broken leg.
When they came back with the rabbit, they also took out a few pheasant eggs.
"Mom, I'm lucky today. I got a few eggs, which can be considered a meat dish."
Boss Shen nudged Sister Shen and said, "Why don't you go and make soup with these pheasant eggs for tonight's meal?"
Since the canteen was disbanded, the Shen family began to cook in order, starting with Mrs. Shen, and the three daughters-in-law took turns cooking, and they still only had one meal at noon.
If I'm really hungry at night, I just drink some water and force myself to eat.
The old lady looked at the two rabbits and felt relieved. She waved her hand.
"Wait a minute, Third Sister-in-law, take the key and go to my room to get an egg and two handfuls of cornmeal for your eldest sister-in-law."
"Let's have an extra meal tonight."
When these words were spoken, the whole family was extremely happy.
Shen Jianping was very excited, "Third sister-in-law, go quickly, I'm so hungry."
Xu Manyue nodded and said, "I'll go right away."
All the food for the Shen family is hidden in the old lady's room. There are only two keys to her room in the entire Shen family, one is with the old lady and the other is with Xu Manyue.
Everyone in the Shen family knew about it, but no one had any objections. Even if they did, they had to keep it to themselves.
Soon, she took an egg and two handfuls of corn flour and went into the kitchen and handed them to Mrs. Shen.
Mrs. Shen stared at the egg and couldn't help swallowing. "Don't worry, leave tonight's dinner to me. I will definitely cook it well."
Today was the best meal I had since the famine began, and I even had eggs.
Soon, a pot of fragrant egg soup and half a basin of cornmeal porridge were brought out from the kitchen.
Everyone couldn't help swallowing when they smelled the eggs.
These are eggs, the kind that I have to save up every month and exchange for money at the supply and marketing cooperative.
The old lady coughed lightly and said, "Today's meal is a supplement. I will distribute the rations according to everyone's performance today."
