The atmosphere in the whole village suddenly collapsed, everyone was frightened and looked anxious.

As long as we get together, we'll be talking about this.

Moreover, from the day the locusts were discovered, smoke curled up from the village while cooking dinner.

Nowadays, there is almost no smoke, and more than half of the families have stopped cooking dinner. As soon as it gets dark, the whole family drinks water, fills their stomachs and goes to bed.

Even if some people are cooking dinner for the night, they still count the grains of rice and put them into the pot to make porridge.

At the entrance of the village, Ms. Sun was cooking porridge in the backyard kitchen.

When Yang Ruoqing came over, she saw the porridge being stirred in the small pot outside, and the vegetable leaves were also stirred along with it.

Mrs. Sun picked up the rapeseed oil, carefully put a spoonful of rapeseed oil into the pot, and then added a spoonful of salt flowers.

"Mom, why are you eating these at night? You don't even care about how full you are!" Yang Ruoqing said.

Sun said: "The great famine is coming soon. From now on, we have to count on food. We can no longer eat white rice at night as we did in the past."

Yang Ruoqing didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Our family is full of people who are eating, and we eat these Xishui-like things at night. Who can bear it?"

"Besides, there is still quite a lot of food in the warehouse. Let's cook, Xiao An is growing up!" she said again.

Sun said: "Maybe there won't be even half a grain of grain this year. There seems to be a lot of rice and wheat flour in the warehouse. I'm about to sit back and eat all the food. It's quick."

"Besides, according to the custom of previous years, all the food is not reserved for our family, but is delivered to the restaurants in the town. If the food is gone, the restaurants will go out of business. No, no, let's eat porridge.

!”

Sun's calculation made Yang Ruoqing both moved and dumbfounded.

Because Mrs. Sun then said: "I have made an agreement with Xiaohua Xiaoduo, and the three of us will go outside to dig wild vegetables early tomorrow morning."

"I eat wild vegetables every day. There are endless wild vegetables, as well as vegetables from the vegetable garden. They are either pickled or fished, and then put away after dehydration. It will be good to satisfy my hunger when the time comes, at least I will not starve to death!"

"Mother, my dear mother, you really know how to plan!" Yang Ruoqing said, stepping forward to hold Sun's hand and look into Sun's eyes.

"Even if the locust plague eats up this season's rice, even if there are no grains this year, you still have to believe in your daughter, your son, and your son-in-law,"

"With the three of us here, we can't make you hungry no matter what."

"Since we cooked porridge tonight, let's not cook it. I'll scoop up two bowls of wheat flour and we'll make green onion and egg pancakes to eat. No matter what, we have to fill our stomachs during this long night."

Yang Ruoqing rolled up her sleeves and started kneading dough, cracking eggs, cutting green onions, and making egg pancakes.

Mrs. Sun stood aside and couldn't bear to stop her. She just kept saying: "Qing'er, please stop posting a few. I don't want to eat at night. You guys can eat. I eat too much at night and it's hard to sleep."

Yang Ruoqing has black lines all over her head.

Which night did your mother not have dinner some time ago?

Because of the busy farming schedule, everyone has to do strenuous work during the day, and the lunch meal at noon is more rushed, because we have to rush to work in the afternoon to connect the past and the future.

So when we finished work in the evening, the meal at night was even more grand. There was cooking and cooking, a table full of food, and my mother also ate. It would be easy to sleep then, so why can’t it be difficult to sleep now?

Before Yang Ruoqing could speak, Xiaohua, who was helping to stuff firewood at the stove, also spoke up: "Sister, I feel like I've gained weight recently. I have to lose weight, otherwise Da'an won't like it. You can give my share to mother, and I won't eat it."

.”

Yang Ruoqing rolled her eyes helplessly and said: "Both of you are not allowed to push. Everyone has a cake, and everyone must eat it. Don't say those words about not eating or not eating."

"If you don't eat and get stomach problems due to hunger, then it won't cost you money to see a doctor and take medicine? You will have to suffer a lot, which is not worth it!" Yang Ruoqing said.

Xiaohua smiled sheepishly and said: "Sister, I plan to lose weight. Really, brother Da'an is so handsome. If I look like a fat pig standing next to him, let alone him, I will lose weight myself." I think it's an eyesore, so I won't eat it at night."

Yang Ruoqing lowered her face and said, "Why are you talking nonsense again? If you like someone, you must like everything about them."

"It doesn't matter whether you are thin or fat, if you like me, then you really like me."

"Besides, our Da'an is not that kind of person. If he were that kind of person, then there are so many beautiful young ladies in Beijing, Changhuaizhou, and Qing'an County who would not show love to him. But our Da'an can Stay true to your heart, I only care about you, little flower, so why should you lose weight? Really!"

Xiaohua blushed with embarrassment and quickly sat back without saying a word.

In my heart, it is sweet.

Here, Yang Ruoqing said to Mrs. Sun again: "Mom, I baked a lot of these cakes. You can send some to my aunt and others later."

"If I guess correctly, they will most likely be cooking porridge tonight."

Mrs. Sun nodded.

Yang Ruoqing first baked six soft scallion egg pancakes and put them in two large bowls. The four in one bowl were given to Da Sun and the others.

There was also a bowl with two in it, which were given to Old Mrs. Sun and Old Sun Tou.

Sun sent it off and came back soon.

She said to Yang Ruoqing: "Qing'er, you guessed it right. Your aunt and her friends also drink vegetable porridge at night. The vegetable porridge is thinner than ours. Xiaojie is very happy to see me delivering cakes. "

Yang Ruoqing also laughed, "I am a half-year-old living in poverty. Although Xiaojie is a girl, at the age of 12 or 13, she is the most vulnerable to hunger. She cannot afford to lose. By then, she will be like the crops that cannot grow." good."

When the word "crops" was mentioned, Sun's face turned gray.

"Hey, I don't know what's going on this year. There's drought in the north, heavy rain in the south, and there's an insect infestation here. Who is God going to punish?"

The speaker has no intention, the listener has intention.

Yang Ruoqing's brows also frowned slightly.

Natural disasters are inevitable regardless of time, space or dynasty.

No matter how advanced your technology is, natural disasters can never be prevented. Otherwise, China would not have suffered earthquakes and mudslide disasters that shocked China and the rest of the world.

In the face of natural disasters, human power is weak.

It is precisely because of our insignificance that people fear God.

God is angry, so I go back and ask myself, did I do something wrong that angered God and punished me?

In the same way, when disasters occur frequently in the south, north, and central parts of Daqi, if some people take this opportunity to spread rumors, will it cause panic and chaos?

"Qing'er, what are you thinking about? Let's eat cake!" When Sun's voice reached her ears, Yang Ruoqing realized that she was distracted.
