It is difficult for the farmer's sister

Chapter 385

When Su Chenkun thought of the sadness on his grandfather's face when he came back, he also felt a little depressed.

"My grandfather said that the imperial court seems to have notified all regions to collect as much food as possible and transport it to the frontier together, or something."

"It is said that there is going to war in northern Xinjiang, but because of the national disaster this year, the national treasury is scarce of food, so let us common people donate some rations to the country..."

Meng Mingzhou, who was drinking tea casually, was taken aback when he heard the words. There is going to be a war in northern Xinjiang?Is it Northeast?Or Northwest?If it is in the northeast, they are still two to three thousand kilometers away from Qinghe County, so there is nothing to worry about for now.

But...if it is in the Northwest...how about grandfather, grandmother and parents?Will they be sent to the battlefield?
And Su Rui was also stunned when she heard the words. She was born in a peaceful age and had never seen a war. Although some countries were at odds with their country, they only dared to make small moves behind their backs. Let’s move with swords and guns. After all, the country has reached the era when the country is rich and powerful, and foreigners are taboo...

When Su Chenkun saw that he had finished speaking, everyone present was silent, and immediately became anxious, "Oh, sister Rui, didn't you hear what I said?"

Su Rui came to her senses and smiled, "I heard that there are foreigners making trouble at the border, our country is going to war, and the country has no food, so we can make up rations for the soldiers, right?"

After hearing Su Rui's complete narration, Su Chenkun knew that she had really listened carefully, so he nodded in satisfaction.

"That's right..."

"okay, I get it····"

Su Rui picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. In the braised pork at noon, there were chestnuts sent by Wang's mother's family years ago. It was so delicious. She accidentally ate too much. Drink some tea to dissolve the greasy.

As for whether you can sleep well at night, hey, that's all a matter of night...
Su Chenkun was dumbfounded, "That's it?"

Su Rui looked up and asked suspiciously, "Otherwise? I don't know how to fight..."

"Since the country only needs us to donate food, not to send us to the battlefield, then donate."

After thinking for a while, he said, "Well, as for how much to donate, of course, just follow the crowd and donate."

I can't finish my own food, but it shouldn't be too conspicuous.Wealth must not leak out, otherwise, in this situation where there is no sky eye, someone will wipe his neck someday. In this era without sky eyes everywhere, the murderer will not be caught even if he is caught...
"············"

Su Chenkun was speechless.

Su Rui thought for a while and then asked, "By the way, is there a rule when to donate?"

Su Chenkun shook his head, "Not yet, my grandfather just asked me to notify you so that you all know about this..."

"Okay, when the donation is made, I will prepare the food."

"By the way, is there any food that is restricted?"

Su Chenkun shook his head when he heard the words, "I didn't say anything, but it seems that apart from sweet potatoes and potatoes, these two things can't be stored for a long time, everything else is fine..."

After sending Su Chenkun away, Su Rui sent everyone in the Su family to do their own things, just now she carried a lantern and went down to the cellar alone.

In the spacious cellar, there were only a few bags of corn kernels and wheat, except for the various fruits she specially released.

After thinking about it, she took out some fruits from the space and put them in the fruit pile, and put [-] bags each of wheat and corn kernels.

He also took out the newly planted cabbage in the space, and after taking out part of the vegetables, he clapped his hands and walked out of the cellar.

Meng Mingzhou originally planned to go to the cattle farm to see pregnant cows, but when he thought of the war in the frontier, he couldn't calm down, so he thought about walking around the backyard to calm down.

Unexpectedly, after turning around so casually, I saw Su Rui coming out of the cellar with a satisfied face.

For some reason, when he saw Su Rui crawling out of the cellar carefully, he hid behind the pile of firewood.

It wasn't until Su Rui blew out the lantern and walked away that he came out from behind the firewood stack and looked at the cellar thoughtfully. He knew that Su Rui had a secret, and he had seen that as long as Su Rui entered the cellar, the cellar There will be many grains of fruits and vegetables.

He was curious about how Su Rui transformed the food, fruits and vegetables?Could it be that Su Rui is a fairy descended from the sky?

Yes, in Meng Mingzhou's eyes, Su Rui couldn't be a witch, she could only be a fairy, otherwise how could she be so kind?good?

Early the next morning, the clan informed everyone to go to the ancestral hall for a meeting.

Because Su Rui's house is close to the ancestral hall, she took her siblings out late, so she went out late!By the time we arrived, almost everyone in the clan had already arrived.

Looking around, seeing the Hua family and others waving at her, Su Rui walked over with her younger siblings with a smile.

"Aunt Hua, Aunt Lin, Aunt Zhao, Sister Chen Kun, Sister Chen Dong, hello..."

Mrs. Hua nodded hurriedly, and grabbed Su Rui's brother and sister who were about to salute, "Okay, don't be too polite."

Mrs. Zhao also nodded, "Miss Rui, we are all a family, so don't be so polite!"

Lin echoed, "Yeah, I know you understand etiquette, but what is our relationship? There is no need for these empty etiquette."

Su Rui smiled, and after finishing the salute with her younger siblings, she said, "Rituals cannot be discarded, the closer we are, the more we can't be perfunctory!"

Hua sighed helplessly, "Alright, I can't beat you!"

"But do you know why the patriarch asked us to come to the meeting today?"

Su Rui glanced at Zhao Shi and said, "It should be for donating food, right?"

Zhao was surprised, "You know?"

Su Rui nodded, "Brother Chen Kun came and told me yesterday..."

Mrs. Zhao thought for a while and suddenly realized, "I said yesterday before lunch, why did the old man let him go out!"

"In the end, I came back after lunch. I said I would give him a hot meal, but he said he was full and not hungry."

"I want to ask carefully! Then I was called away by the old man again. So I went to your house to eat delicious food?"

Su Rui smiled and didn't answer.

Lin interjected, "We all found out just now, what do you think, girl Rui?"

Su Rui spread her hands and said, "Aunt Lin, I'm a child, what can I think?"

Hua nodded in agreement, "Yes, Rui girl has a child, what can she think?"

"I see..."

Before he could finish speaking, the patriarch Su Zheng came out with all the elders in the clan, and stood on the platform. Seeing this, the clan members became quiet.
