Chapter 15: cant afford to mess with now
Chapter 15 I can't afford to mess with it now
Seeing that his younger sister could finally use him, Nangong Sheng nodded his head like a pounding garlic, and began to eat steamed buns with big mouthfuls.
Yang Ruolan didn't move while holding the steamed buns. She opened the cloth bag to have a look, and then turned over the basket. Seeing that it was full of food, she began to eat.
With these foods, it is estimated that they will have a better life in the future.
Besides, Ah Shan spent the money in front of so many people today, and there are many people buying food today, so their family will probably be safer at night.
It's just that Ah Shan bought so many things today, and she doesn't know if she still has any money.
Nangong Anshan waited for the second brother to eat, let him push the cart for a while, walked to the back, stuffed a steamed bun for Cao Zhenya, mother and daughter, and said: "You guys eat too, I bought a lot, Don't refuse, I have plenty of food."
Tai Le boy said that Cao Zhenya is trustworthy.
Give a little benefit, one more person is on her side, and if she wants to leave her family to find food in the future, her family will be safer.
Cao Zhenya's mother and daughter were naturally grateful, and then began to gobble it up.
Seeing that Nangong Anshan bought so much grain and her family members were still eating steamed buns openly, Qiu's eyes were red with jealousy.
If the ten taels of silver hadn't been given to her, it would be me who is eating steamed buns now.
Nangong Miao also wanted to eat steamed buns, so she began to act like a baby, "Aniang, Yingying and I both want to eat steamed buns."
Qiu Shi said: "You also know that we can't afford to offend that **** girl now, I promise you, I will cook the rice thicker tonight so that you can be fuller, okay?"
Nangong Miao could only nod her head.
Old ladies are afraid to ask for food, and they used to just look for abuse.
The group of people walked for another hour, and the sky was almost completely dark.
Zhou Lizheng stopped, looked at their situation, and was a little worried.
The place is surrounded by mountains on both sides, and there is no water source. Not only is it inconvenient to prepare food, but it may also be life-threatening when sleeping at night.
I don’t know why, it’s March, but the weather is still so cold.
The wind here is also very strong. If you stay here for one night, you will probably suffer a lot.
Zhou Lizheng's eldest son, Zhou Zhenyang, said: "Father, shall we stay here?"
Zhou Lizheng said: "For safety's sake, let's go a little further."
Zhou Zhenyun, Zhou Lizheng's second son, said: "But it's already dark, and we don't know what's ahead. It's hard to say whether it's safer or more dangerous than here."
"Then what do you two think?"
"In my opinion, let's seek the opinions of the villagers."
"I feel so too."
"Okay, you guys go ask."
The two came back soon, Zhou Zhenyang said: "Most of them can't walk anymore. They heard that the front may not be safer than here, so they don't want to go."
Zhou Zhenyun said: "They still feel that traveling in the dark is really hard work."
Zhou Lizheng sighed and said: "Okay, since that's the case, let's rest here. Those who need to find firewood are looking for firewood. Let's light this place a little bit, so that the wild beasts won't dare to come here again, and we can also keep out the cold."
"Yes." The two turned around and went to give orders.
Nangong Anshan also disapproved of walking at night. When she heard that she was going to rest in place, she immediately started cooking.
Let a few children collect firewood nearby, and she found a good place to spread the oilcloth, so as to avoid the wind.
After finishing her busy work, she took out the fire folder, and the fire was lit very smoothly.
She bought it in the city.
Although she has a lighter, the system can also replace modern things with ancient ones, and the lighter can be replaced with a fire pocket, but she is reluctant to change it. How can a fire pocket have a lighter?
Yang Ruolan asked in surprise, "Ashan, where did you get Huozhezi?"
"I went to the city to buy it."
After the fire was burning, Nangong Anshan took the water from the bamboo tube to clean the rice and pot, and started cooking.
There will be a lot of walking tomorrow, and she plans to cook dry rice.
Before the meal was ready, she brought out a few more biscuits to give the family a temporary pad.
Cao Zhenya knew that Nangong Anshan's family had a hard time before, and it was not easy to get too close to them. In order not to make people think that she only got close to others because of their food, she chose the same resting place as Nangong Anshan. Some distance from home.
Seeing that Nangong Anshan came over to give herself and her daughter something to eat, she hurriedly said: "Ashan, no need, I brought a pot and I'm cooking too, you eat yours, we have something to eat, recently we all If we are full, we also found wild vegetables, so you don’t have to give us anything you can’t starve yourself.”
After Nangong Anshan heard the words, she didn't force them anymore, "Okay."
After speaking, she went back to make food.
Mrs. Qiu was also cooking at this time, and asked the children to find some wild vegetables, and she mixed the wild vegetables into the rice and cooked them together.
Nangong Miao saw that there was indeed more rice tonight, and he was relieved.
It seems that I can eat more today.
Soon, Nangong Anshan finished the meal, served everyone the meal, and took out the roast duck under the cover of the back basket.
There is an oilcloth blocking it, so no one else can see it.
Seeing roast duck, everyone was shocked.
Nangong Anshan made a gesture of silence, and quickly distributed the roast duck to them, letting them eat quickly.
When everyone had finished eating, she went to her second uncle's house and called her three cousins ??to her place of residence.
As soon as the three of them arrived, a duck leg was stuffed into each of their hands.
Nangong Anshan whispered: "Eat quickly, I'm going to have some from my second uncle and aunt."
The three of them were overjoyed at the same time, and began to gobble up the duck legs.
Tai Le boy said: "If someone eats meat, the merit value will be increased by one, the total merit will be four, and one drop of Holy Spirit water will be added."
After they finished eating, Nangong Anshan gave them two more duck legs, asking them to take them back to their parents, and let them eat them quietly.
The three left happily.
After eating, everyone felt sleepy. Nangong Anshan asked them to put on all the new clothes, while she and her second brother started to watch the night.
Last night, Nan Gongsheng made his younger sister watch all night. He felt very sorry, so he insisted on watching the first half of the night first, so that his younger sister could go to bed.
Seeing that he insisted, Nangong Anshan didn't object. If she was still awake all the time, others would doubt her.
If the second brother is too sleepy tomorrow, she can let him sleep on the scooter.
The villagers finished eating one after another, and the surroundings gradually became quiet.
Every household plans to take turns keeping vigil, so that they can sleep more peacefully.
It's just that everyone is on the road during the day, and they don't have much energy at night. The night watchman fell asleep after a while.
