After relying on the motherland, my supermarket has become more and more prosperous.

Why would you cut a belt into thin strips with a knife and add it to a pot of cooking wild vegetables?

This was the first thought that came to Jiang Wanwan's mind when she saw this scene.

The next moment, she used a normal person's logic to deduce the greatest possibility.

The kitchen staff had an iron pot with water and wild vegetables in it, and there was a fire burning underneath, obviously it was for cooking.

So, the thin strips of belt added to the pot are naturally for... eating.

This speculation, which might be the truth, immediately plunged Jiang Wanwan into great pain and self-reflection.

Yes!

She clearly knew the situation of the Red Army, so what was she expecting just now?

They knew clearly that by the time they reached this point, the Red Army would probably have run out of edible food.

What can people do if they have no food?

Hunting, digging wild vegetables, eating tree bark, and even tree roots...

Unfortunately, this area known as the Death Grassland has not only been deserted by humans, but even birds and animals have become extinct.

The mud below is so deep that no big trees can survive, and there is no bark or roots to eat.

Therefore, the only things the Red Army could eat along the way were wild vegetables, which Jiang Wanwan regarded as a scourge.

When the wild vegetables dug are not enough to sustain life, we can only add other things to the pot.

Jiang Wanwan stood in front of the pot blankly, subconsciously thinking about all the possibilities in her mind.

But behind all these possibilities is a tragic past that she cannot bear, or even imagine.

Jiang Wanwan couldn't help but think of the history in which she did not appear.

These revolutionary martyrs, with no one to help them in the dangerous grassland, can they only rely on these pots of clear "wild vegetable soup" to survive, or... sleep here forever!

At this moment, Jiang Wanwan suddenly popped up in her mind the information that she had read out from history books when she traveled through time and learned that this was the grassland where the Red Army had crossed.

There are three difficulties in crossing a grassland: the first is the difficulty of traveling, the second is the difficulty of finding food, and the third is the difficulty of keeping warm and camping.

It turns out that it is so difficult to summarize it in just a few words?

It was indeed difficult, so difficult that it broke her heart, brought tears to her eyes, and made her want to cry...

Battalion commander Liu Dafu, who was following Jiang Wanwan, saw that she was staring at the pot without saying anything, and spoke awkwardly.

"We didn't find many wild vegetables along the way, so they are a bit simple. Please bear with us, Miss Jiang."

what?

The sudden sound made the emotional Jiang Wanwan a little confused for a moment.

While wiping the sweat off her face and secretly wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes, she quickly analyzed the situation.

Oh, by the way, Liu Dafu had just invited her to eat together, and then Jiang Wanwan saw this scene because she was interested in what was in the pot.

So, the apology in Liu Dafu's words at this moment is because the food is too simple and he feels that he has neglected the guests?

OMG!

When ordinary people encounter such a desperate situation, how could they be willing to share even a single cent of the life-saving food they have worked so hard to find with others?

As a result, these Red Army soldiers regarded her as a friend just because of a letter from Mr. Hu, were willing to share a bowl of life-saving food with her, and even felt embarrassed because the food was simple?

It’s unbelievable. She cried to death!

Such passionate dedication made Jiang Wanwan feel warm in her heart, and she wanted to give them everything she had without reservation.

However, she did not rush to express her opinion because there was still a question in her mind that she had not figured out.

Jiang Wanwan tried hard to suppress her choked voice and asked, "This is a belt, right? Can I eat it?"

"Why can't we eat it? The belt is made of cowhide, so it's meat after all!" The Red Army soldier who was cutting the belt looked up and answered.

Yes, the belt is made of cowhide, Jiang Wanwan suddenly realized.

Most modern belts are made of industrial materials.

Not to mention eating it, poor quality products that come into contact with the skin for a long time will cause redness and itching.

But this era is different. Technology is not so advanced, and all belts are made of real cowhide.

But even so, whether the cowhide that has been dried for several years can be eaten is not the point. The key is whether it can be chewed and whether the stomach can digest it.

Perhaps seeing that Jiang Wanwan was silent, another Red Army soldier next to him explained.

"Don't think eating leather belts sounds bad, but it's still cowhide after all, and it's much more filling than wild vegetables. This little piece is enough to chew for a whole day."

"Yes, Miss Jiang, you are lucky. There is only this piece of the belt left. I am afraid we will have to cook it all today. By tomorrow noon, we can only eat Lao Zhu's stinky leather shoes." Another Red Army soldier said.

Leather...leather shoes?

Jiang Wanwan widened her eyes, feeling as if all her views had been shattered.

Although, the leather shoes of this period were probably all made of cowhide.

But they are shoes, worn on the feet, used for cooking and eating...

At this time, the Red Army member who was mentioned, Old Zhu, was unhappy and retorted: "You think my feet smell bad? If you have the guts, don't eat them tomorrow!"

"No, I'm not going to eat it tomorrow. I'm going to eat two pieces. I'm going to eat your piece too, so you don't have to eat it yourself!"

"Get lost! I have no reason to be afraid of that. I pierced it with my own foot."

……

Seeing the Red Army soldiers arguing with each other and laughing, Liu Dafu made a suggestion to the stunned Jiang Wanwan.

"After all, this belt has been air-dried for several years. It will take quite a while to cook it thoroughly and chew it. I'd better go back there with Miss Jiang first!"

The questions in my mind have been answered, and there is also an even more explosive message.

Jiang Wanwan couldn't bear it any longer and quickly waved her hands and said.

"No need to cook, I have food there, everyone come with me!"

However, after hearing this, the Red Army soldiers looked over in surprise but did nothing, obviously not believing it.

"Really, the transaction mentioned in Mr. Hu's letter refers to food, so everyone doesn't have to eat these things anymore." Jiang Wanwan looked serious and pulled Mr. Hu out again.

Liu Dafu couldn't help himself and asked expectantly, "Do you really have food there?"

"Really! I've been here for a few days. Do I look hungry?" Jiang Wanwan pointed to her still round cheeks.

Seeing that things had come to this point and everyone was still hesitant, she decided to see it for herself!

Jiang Wanwan just flipped her hand and took out a plump white bun, holding it up for everyone to see.

"Look what this is? Baozi, I really have food. Stop cooking wild vegetable soup. Everyone, come with me!"

Most of the Red Army noticed the sudden appearance of the steamed buns, but no one paid any attention to it.

In the face of extreme hunger, the existence of a bun is far more important than anything else.

All the Red Army soldiers present stood up subconsciously, staring at Baozi, expressing their disbelief.

"Is that... a bun?"

"Am I hallucinating because I'm hungry? I actually saw buns in the grass?"

"I saw it too."

"So, she really took out a bun?"

"smell good!"
