Thanos's biological daughter in period fiction
Chapter 87 Chinese New Year 5
After checking one last time to make sure everything was almost ready, Liu Fangmei returned to the kitchen and saw her two sons asleep on the table, each with half a bun in their mouths.
Feeling sorry for her son, Liu Fangmei quickly went over, took the buns from their hands, and used her mind to send them back to their room. He simply couldn't carry them, so she had no choice but to use her mind.
He tidied up the kitchen, ate a steamed bun himself, and then went to wash up and rest.
Five hours passed in this way, and an hour went by. There was an alarm clock on the bedside table. Liu Fangmei set it for four and a half hours before finally lying down to rest.
The little girl sleeps very well, and since the space is temperature-controlled, she's fine whether she's covered or not. However, Liu Fangmei still made sure her little girl covered her stomach, mainly to prevent her from getting cold and catching a cold.
She woke up before the alarm clock went off, noticing there wasn't much time to spare, and then looked at her little daughter, who looked like a little pig. She turned on the bedside lamp for her daughter and went to wash up.
It's a bit cold outside; I'll need to wear an extra layer of clothing later. I wonder if the heavy snow has stopped. If it hasn't, it will be difficult to transport the purchased grain back home.
The villagers here are alright, but who knows what might happen to the surrounding villages?
They hadn't considered this problem before, but now they have to. Especially for those elderly people, children, and families without able-bodied members.
Liu Fangmei was brushing her teeth while pondering this question. She hadn't even noticed the little one who was already at her feet. She only realized what was happening when she felt her clothes being tugged. "What's wrong? Why didn't you sleep in a little longer yesterday when it was still early..."
"Mother, what if someone lives far away and comes to buy grain, but gets robbed halfway there?" Xia Yutang suddenly thought of this problem; she had read about it in historical documents from that period. During that time, grain robbery could even lead to murder.
"How did you come up with this question? I just thought of it too, but I don't have a solution yet." This is exactly the problem that's bothering her, but she doesn't have a solution yet.
"Mom, the grain store opens in the morning, and we deliver the goods in the evening. There are electric snowmobiles in the warehouse. It's so cold now, and the snow is so thick, we can use the electric snowmobiles." The electric ones are silent. She found this in the room with the vehicles when she was looking for a toy tricycle to ride last time.
"Let's give it a try." She had to try it out first since she had never driven this before, otherwise she wouldn't dare to operate it.
Besides, it's only three days. The villages that need to be delivered to are probably quite far from theirs, but she only has three days. What if those villages don't receive the message...?
She wouldn't want to go to every village. She's a woman with three children, and she has the help of the village chief, the brigade leader, and other uncles and elders in each village.
When she arrived at another village, who knew if anyone there had bad intentions? She certainly couldn't do what the villagers did and just set up a house and leave it there for three days.
"Stone, when you were in school, did you know any kids from the surrounding villages?" Liu Bang didn't think to have his son inquire about the homes of the elderly without children or the old heroes in those villages first.
They can secretly deliver some to them without anyone noticing, ensuring their own safety.
“Yes, there are so many villages around here, but there’s only one school. People from all sorts of villages come to the school. There are seven or eight of our classmates alone.” Shi Tou answered his mother without thinking. They were all his classmates, and he and his brother were quite popular in class.
"Do you know about the elderly living alone in these villages, or war heroes and the like? I plan to send some food to them for free. Of course, we'll go secretly at night to deliver it, just as a New Year's gift." She was also a military dependent, and although military dependents would receive gifts and comfort during holidays, he really couldn't guarantee anything at her age.
“I know, we’ve explored all those villages. But more than a year has passed, and I don’t know if there’s anything left to eat.” Actually, Stone was more concerned about whether anyone was still alive.
Although no one in their village starved to death, the elderly people all looked like they were on their deathbeds, and they saved their food for the younger generation in their families.
"Never mind then, we'll go check it out then, knock on the door and see if anyone's home. We have firewood at home, I plan to bring a bundle when I deliver the grain too." People freeze to death every winter, and this winter is especially harsh with hunger and cold, I'm sure many elderly people won't make it through.
She was thinking of doing good deeds for her three children, as a way of repaying God for leaving her daughter and giving them such a precious gift.
She truly deserves heartfelt thanks; without this gift, she wouldn't have been able to do such a thing. It's a matter of cause and effect; she wants to follow her heart and help in whatever way she can.
Of course, he didn't really want to go back to his mother's village, because the people there weren't very good. When his parents were seriously ill, only the village head and his brother offered any help.
She would secretly give some to the two brothers, the brigade leader, to repay them for the help they had given her and her parents back then.
At first, many people didn't believe that there would still be people selling grain at this time, and that there were quite a few varieties. They all came with a wait-and-see attitude.
They were all a little stunned when they saw the radishes and cabbages placed in the window; there really were some! Then, the brigade leader's wife, Sister-in-law Tian, made the crab dish.
I brought my own cloth bag and bought 20 jin of cornmeal and 20 jin of brown rice. Only when I went to pay did I realize that the price was only slightly higher than at the supply and marketing cooperative, and that I didn't need ration coupons to buy it here.
As if she had gotten a great deal, Sister Tian praised it all the way home. When she got home, she quickly dragged her son and took the cart out.
The snow on the road was quite thick, making it a bit strenuous to pull the cart, but since he needed to buy something weighing a hundred or two hundred pounds, using the cart would be more efficient.
They arrived, panting heavily. They noticed a long queue already formed at the village entrance.
Unaware of her previous attempt to cut in line, Sister-in-law Tian obediently went to join the queue. The old village chief had said that those who didn't follow the rules wouldn't be able to buy anything, so everyone behaved themselves to ensure they had enough to eat.
Suddenly, someone in the crowd spoke up and asked, "Village chief, can I go back to my parents' home?"
These words were like a drop of water falling into a hot oil pan, instantly igniting the hearts of all the wives and young women around.
Yes, if they have grain to sell, can they notify their mother's family? This kind of weather is unpredictable, and many villagers have already run out of food.
