Don't panic, the family boss is busy farming

Chapter 3 Gotta Leave
Xu Yue returned to the main room.

The only torch in the house was moved from the kitchen to the main room. Xu Yue, Xu Erniang, Xu Da, and Wang sat on a corner of the small square table.

On the table were four bowls of rice bran rice and a jug of boiling water.

As for the rabbit meat or pheasant meat that Xu Yue thought was an extra meal, they did not appear on the dining table, but were packed up by Mrs. Wang, cut into small pieces and wrapped with leaves, and placed on the stove. It seemed that there were other usefulness.

Mrs. Wang picked up the chopsticks and gave an order: "Dinner!"

Only then did Xu Yue and the others move their chopsticks, but...
Even though today's dinner was more solid than the previous few days, Xu Yue found that she couldn't swallow a mouthful of wet rice bran that was barely steamed and had no other flavor at all.

Quiet Mimi looked up, not only was she unable to swallow, but her father frowned into a word of Sichuan, with a mouthful of rice bran in his mouth, neither swallowed nor swallowed.

Him, Xu Qingyang!
The second generation of dignified Xiu, grew up with rich clothes and fine food, and what they ate were all serious delicacies from mountains and seas.

As a fashionista in the world of cultivating immortals, an aesthetic vane among monks, and a dude in the eyes of the enemy, even the simplest spiritual rice, he has to arrange it into a delicate snow lotus before eating.

And at this moment, he had never seen the bowl of rice bran rice in his hand. In his 400 years of life, it was the first time he knew that there was such a thing as rice bran in the human diet!
Compared with the violent fluctuations in Xu Da's heart, Xu Erniang's resistance to rice bran rice was less obvious. She just stared at the rice bran rice in her hand with her pair of red phoenix eyes that were exactly like Xu Da, and fell into deep thought.

Who the hell invented this food?

How can anyone think that this kind of thing can be eaten by people?

Stupid humans!
Serena, the great mage of light, will never give in!

Wang's ability to adapt to the environment is amazing, perhaps because she has had a more difficult experience than this.

As the most outstanding contemporary general of the Universe Federation, she and her army had a serious supply crisis due to the frame-up of political enemies.

At that time, the troops she led were still on a completely unfamiliar planet, where resources were extremely scarce, and the most basic water had to be extracted from the air by distillation technology.

Soldiers who want to fill their stomachs can only venture underground to catch those cunning gerbils.

In the end, isolated and helpless, she still brought this army back to the Federation, scaring those political enemies who thought she had starved to death on an alien planet.

Therefore, in Wang's eyes, there is nothing more important than survival. Even if it is a desperate situation, she will still tenaciously persist until the end.

Wang Pingping, the general of the empire, will never bow her head!

Perhaps Xu Yue's gaze was too obvious. Sensing her gaze, the three of them raised their heads and looked at each other. Everyone knew that the other party had changed his core.

See through, don’t say through.

Seeing that everyone couldn't eat, Mrs. Wang simply put down the bowls and chopsticks and stood up.

The father and daughter put down the bowls and chopsticks and looked at her.

"I want to announce something." She looked at everyone seriously and said.

Wang said: "We have to leave here. After my observations in the past few days, the drought is very serious. There are not a single village nearby. The only water source is Dawang Village, ten miles away. But today when we used prey for water, we found that , everyone in Dawang Village is ready to move out."

"This world is in chaos. All kinds of tyrants rebelled under the banner of crusade against Dong Xing. Our county magistrates all ran away, and the refugee army in the north rebelled again. They went all the way south and forced them to Sanyang County. We are the only way to go south." Sooner or later, you will suffer disaster.”

"Every day we go out, we can see new corpses on the side of the road. These corpses are completely exposed to the air. The weather is so hot, and these corpses are concentrated and fermented. I am very worried that cholera will break out."

"So, do you have any objections to my decision?" Wang asked.

The father and daughter looked at each other, then shook their heads together: "No."

Mrs. Wang immediately made a decision: "That's the decision. Now fill your stomachs first. After you are full, pack up the things you want to bring. We will set off tomorrow morning."

After finishing speaking, Mrs. Wang sat down again, ate up the rice bran rice in the bowl with water, and from the beginning to the end, you couldn't find a trace of pain on her face.

Xu Yue silently swallowed her saliva, thinking that she would start a long journey tomorrow and needed to maintain sufficient physical strength, she became ruthless, imitating Wang's example, taking a sip of rice bran and water, forcing herself to finish the bowl of rice bran rice.

Xu Yue, the youngest, could eat it all. Xu Erniang felt that she was no worse than her younger sister. She held the rice bran rice in her hand, kneaded it into small balls, and coaxed herself that it was delicious food with her eyes closed.

Inspired, Xu Da squeezed the rice bran rice into a lotus shape, and began to eat gracefully, just to show Xu Yue that he was hungry, and always felt that he was eating some delicacies from mountains and seas.

After dinner, the four of them got ready for tomorrow's departure.

Mrs. Wang poured the boiled water into the bamboo tube and filled it with five knots, two of which were filled with salt, and the five tubes of water were neatly stacked in the basket.

Rolling up his sleeves, Xu Da, who was standing on the stove kneading rice bran rice balls regardless of his aristocratic demeanor, was puzzled when he saw the detail of Wang's putting salt into the water.

What strange things is this woman doing?

The water has to be boiled to drink, so why put salt in the water?

The busy Mrs. Wang has no time to take care of this worthless and cheap husband. She took out half of the meat that she had processed before and baked it. This is an extra meal for the family tomorrow. If you want to go fast, you have to Eat better.

As for the remaining half, Mrs. Wang used up the coarse salt in the clay pots at home and marinated them for easy storage in such hot weather.

There wasn’t much rice bran left. Excluding the extravagant meal tonight, the remaining rice bran was only made into twenty balls the size of a baby’s fist. sky.

The couple put all the food and water into the basket, turned around and entered the room separated by wooden boards inside the hall.

This is the bedroom of Xu's couple, and next door is the room of the two sisters. Xu Dalang usually sleeps on a wooden bed made of wooden boards in the main room.

Xu Da followed Wang into the room, watched her dig under the bed and took out a clay pot, her eyes lit up.

However, the Wang family only took out ten large coins from the clay pot, which was all the rest of the Xu family's property.

Mrs. Wang counted the ten big coins three times, but she couldn't get a single one. She became angry from embarrassment, and gave Xu Da another look.

Xu Da retorted: "If I were in charge of the family, I would never let your mother and son fall into such a situation."

The implication is, you have to blame the original body, and don't blame him on Master Xu.

Wang sneered coldly, and handed the ten big coins to Xu Da, who took it and put it away carefully.

These ten big coins are the last reliance of their family.

This small action of the couple set the main tone of the family for the rest of the year. The man is in charge of the house and the woman is in charge of the house. Wang is in charge of the charge and Xu Da is in charge of the logistics.

Xu Da is still satisfied with his current teammate. Although he doesn't look like a woman, he is relieved because of this.

If Mrs. Wang is also the kind of woman who only knows how to cry when things happen, then she can pull this big family by herself. He chooses to commit suicide on the spot!
