The end of natural disasters: the daily life of child brides in ancient times

Chapter 377 Her talent shouldn’t be here!

Not long after, Lu Tianming came out of Village Chief Yang's house.

When he saw Lu Qingqing, he came over and told her what they had just discussed.

Village Chief Yang will send someone to notify the villagers in a while.

From now on, every family must start making adobe bricks and try to build the wall as soon as possible.

Lu Qingqing thought about what she had just discussed with her master's wife and asked:

"Uncle Tianming, when will our team set out again?"

Lu Tianming had thought about this a long time ago, and now when he heard her mention it, he said:

"When the snow on the road has melted, let's set off!

When I get back, I'll tell everyone in the team about this.

After we finish working on the adobe bricks these days, we have to pack up our things in advance.

In addition to checking the carts to be used on the road, each family must also prepare some food in advance."

Lu Qingqing nodded. She didn't know what would happen on the road, so she should prepare everything as much as possible before leaving.

A few days ago, she had sorted out all the arrows in the space.

Some of the less damaged ones have also been repaired.

As for food, this winter, the two of them cooked some food in the space when they had nothing to do.

The prepared food is enough for the two of them to eat for a few days.

But most of the food has a strong taste, so before leaving, you should still buy more pancakes, steamed buns, etc.

After a brief chat, Lu Tianming left.

Lu Qingqing felt a little bored staying in the tent, so she stepped on the ice wall and saw that it was quite solid, so she climbed up to see what was happening outside.

Standing on the parapet, the wind was still a little chilly at high altitude, but it was much less severe than the severe cold of the past few days.

Looking around, most of the area outside the wall was still covered with snow.

Although there was no one on the road at this time, there were many footprints and tire tracks left behind.

The weather is getting warmer, and people who have survived this cold winter are starting to move around again.

At noon, Qin Lang came with a lunch box to deliver the meal.

As soon as the food box was opened, a spicy aroma hit me. The hot spicy rabbit cubes were shiny and looked very appetizing.

When I opened the lid, I saw a small bowl of cabbage and vermicelli stewed with meatballs on the bottom layer.

She fried the meatballs before the Chinese New Year and kept them in the space to keep them fresh. They still taste great now.

At the bottom are four big hot steamed buns.

Lu Qingqing reached out and took out the steamed bun underneath.

Seeing this, Qin Lang took something out of his arms and said to the two of them:

"Master's wife, Daya, here are two salted eggs, one for each of you."

As he spoke, he took out two washed pickled eggs from his arms.

When the master's wife looked at the sumptuous meal, the sadness on her face faded away.

Looking at the busy Qin Lang, he said jokingly:

"This is so rich! Xiaolang's cooking skills are getting better and better!

Daya, I'm following you, and I'm in for a treat! "

Lu Qingqing just smiled after hearing the teasing.

There is a lot of free time in winter, and when we have nothing to do, we think about how to eat. Both of them have gained some weight on their bodies and faces.

In fact, it's not just them. Most people in the North Courtyard have gained some weight.

Of course, this kind of fat is not the kind of fat defined in modern terms.

From a modern perspective, Lu Qingqing thought everyone was still thin.

But he is no longer as skinny as he was when he fled from famine.

Qin Lang put down his things and said to the two of them:

"Uncle Tianming brought me a letter this morning. Everyone is busy making adobe bricks now. I'm going back first!"

After the two nodded, Qin Lang left in a hurry.

After four days of hard work, all the adobe bricks allocated to each family were finally made.

The finished adobe bricks cannot be used immediately and need to be dried in the sun.

While the other families in Linshan Village were resting, the people in the north yard did not stop and started packing up their things.

In addition to packing up seldom-used items in the house, each household also took out the carts piled in the yard and inspected them.

In winter, each family's carts were covered with straw mats and oilcloth, so there was not much problem.

There were some minor problems, which the men fixed themselves.

After fleeing famine for so long, everyone knew exactly what they would need on the road.

The men were busy with things outside, while the women started to busy themselves with clothes and daily necessities for the family.

Someone found the sun-proof veil and repaired the damaged parts.

There are also people busy making shoes and clothes.

These days, Lu Qingqing has also been learning how to make shoes from her master's wife.

After this winter, she and Qin Lang not only grew taller, but their feet also grew a lot longer.

Although she had bought some larger shoes before, she had nothing to do, so she thought of making a few more pairs to wear on the road.

But when I started making shoes, I realized that making shoes is not an easy job and it requires a lot of effort.

After doing it for two days in a row, Lu Qingqing felt that her wrists and fingers were no longer her own.

While making shoes, my fingers were covered with blood spots.

After making the first pair of shoes, she stopped.

In this regard, she only wanted to say that everyone has their own strengths, and her talent should not be here!

Making shoes is really difficult for her!

At worst, I can tell Qin Lang to be careful when wearing shoes on the road.

Wait until there is a place that sells shoes and buy a few more pairs!

After working for two or three days, everyone had almost packed up their belongings.

During this period, Lu Tianming went to the wall every day to check the situation outside.

Because he had made instructions in advance, he was worried that the dry food would go bad if prepared too early, so he waited until one or two days before departure to prepare the food.

Therefore, the dry food for each family has not been prepared yet.

But this did not prevent the women in each family from preparing other things.

Cui led her daughter and daughter-in-law to soak the dried vegetables, and then pickled them into pickles.

This pickle not only replenishes salt, but also solves the problem of going to the toilet to a certain extent.

They could only eat dry biscuits on the way to escape the famine, and many people could not go to the toilet for several days.

Only those who have experienced constipation can understand the discomfort.

Adults can still bear it, but children cannot and often cry loudly.

Lu Qingqing had seen villagers using small sticks to pick out the poop from children who couldn't defecate.

Although it was a bit disgusting, at least the problem was solved and the child no longer cried.

Everyone in the team knows this.

Therefore, after the Cui family started making dried vegetables, other families also hurried to follow suit.

Those who didn't have much dried vegetables at home would exchange them for some with the villagers using their grain.

When Lu Laosan saw this, he was worried that his family would be left behind, so he went back to the house and told Sun Cui about it.

Sun Cui had never wanted to escape the famine, but when she heard him say this, she hurriedly said:

“Boss, you are a man, you have big hands and don’t care about these things.

Think about it, when it gets warmer, the fields will be full of wild vegetables, so why would we need to exchange grain for dried vegetables?

Besides, food is so precious nowadays!

If we sell it, all this grain in our family will be enough to exchange for a lot of silver!

Exchanging grain for worthless dried vegetables is definitely a crazy idea.

Those women who were replaced are not people who know how to live!

You must listen to me on this matter, it’s absolutely right!”

However, Lu Laosan disagreed with this, as he had fled from famine before.

Anything could happen on the road, so I thought about persuading him again.

"Cui'er, you didn't come with us, so you don't know how difficult it was to escape from the famine. Let me tell you..."
