There is Room For Abandoned Women In the 1980s Chapter 96

Chapter 96 Tighten your belt and live a better life

Gao Guilan glanced sideways at her daughter-in-law and scolded her angrily, asking you to disturb the family? Why don't you live an honest life if you are made homeless this time?

Li Xiuqin lowered her head in discomfort, not daring to quarrel with her mother-in-law.

In any case, Li Xiuqin can finally return to Zheng's house.

She had been hungry for three days. The porridge Gao Guilan served her at night was thicker. He made an exception and gave her half a pancake, and glared at her angrily.

“Eat! Do you still have merit when you return to your parents' home?”

“Thank you, Mom.”

Li Xiuqin was moved to tears, and looked at her mother-in-law with rare eagerness. She had almost starved to death in her parents' house for three days, and everyone was shaking when she was sitting here.

"snort."

Gao Guilan snorted and ignored her. He gave her daughter a bowl of gnocchi and handed her a boiled egg.

"Xinyue, eat quickly! I'm worried about your sister-in-law, but she doesn't even appreciate your kindness."

"Xinyue, my sister-in-law is wrong. I will treat you as my sister from now on. Please don't hate my sister-in-law, okay?"

Hearing what her mother-in-law said, Li Xiuqin didn't dare to eat any food, so she pulled Zheng Xinyue to apologize.

“Sister-in-law, eat quickly!”

Zheng Xinyue felt a little unnatural. What was she worried about? Why didn't she know?

Zheng Dakui frowned and lit a cigarette after dinner. Zheng Chenglong saw him and asked him with concern: "Dad, are you worried?"

“Your master has a grimace when he comes back from this meeting. He is afraid that there will be no food for the autumn harvest. From tomorrow on, our family will tighten our belts and drink water for three meals a day. We will not make steamed bread anymore.”

Zheng Dakui took a puff of dry tobacco and expressed his worries, but even if he saved like this, he was afraid that he would not be able to survive this disaster year. After all, he had plenty of food in stock, and every bite he ate would mean he would lose a bite.

“Huh? If you don't get any food, wouldn't you starve to death?”

Gao Guilan became anxious after hearing this. She could no longer sit still and stood up and ran to ask her husband.

“That's what I'm afraid of. There's no harm in being prepared early.”

Zheng Dakui put the cigarette bag on the ground. He was not in the mood to smoke anymore.

“What can we do? There are more than a dozen people in our family, old and young. We can't all starve to death, right?”

Gao Guilan said with a cry.

“Mom, it's okay. The mountain behind is our granary. I can go hunting and you won't starve to death.”

Zheng Chengbao slapped his chest! He said, not taking it seriously at all.

"Cheng Bao is right. God will never starve to death. As long as there are people around, there will be a solution. Don't worry about it in vain."

Zheng Dakui nodded, relying on the mountains to eat the mountains. The mountains are endless treasures. They are better off than the farmers in the plains, at least they will not starve to death.

Zheng Xinyue returned to her room, closed the door from the inside, and entered the space directly.

She hopes that the food in the fields will grow quickly, so that it can help the village tide over the difficulties, and she will not watch people starve to death.

The space has a pleasant fruity aroma and a sweet smell in the air.

A large area of green crops is growing well. The corns have already formed ears and will form stalks in a few days.

The seedlings on the green side are covered with persimmons, cucumbers and eggplants.

Tomatoes are larger than those bought in the market, and they are red and gleaming in the sun. The cucumbers are fresh and prickly, with a yellow flower on each root. The eggplant has a shiny skin that attracts people.

Zheng Xinyue couldn't help but jump for joy at the joy of the harvest. She picked the tomatoes and bit them directly, and they tasted great. She had planted them with her own hands, and she didn't expect them to mature in just a few days.

In modern times, it takes at least more than a month. This space is precious, and crops grow ten times faster than outside, or even more.

She ate four or five cucumbers and tomatoes each. Her belly was full and she ran to take a bath in the river.

The fresh vegetables and fruits she can eat are not available to her family. Zheng Xinyue now wants to take all the food out and share it with the whole family, but what method should be used?
