Planting a fairy in ancient times

Chapter 412 438. Petty Bala
Moreover, there are rumors in Xingyi Mansion that the people of Cheng Wang Xuanyuan Liufeng are about to attack Xingyi Mansion.

The people were so frightened that they left the city to flee for their lives.

Chen Erniu was taken aback. He didn't care to stay outside the city to look for his children and grandchildren, so he ran away with Chen Wang.

With no mule cart and no money, Chen Erniu and his wife stopped and went, relying on begging to survive, and they did not return to Xinghua Village until today.

Chen Erniu and his wife had nothing on them, afraid of being scolded by Chen Daniu, they dared not ask Chen Daniu for the key.After hesitating at the door for a long time, Chen Qingfeng bumped into him.

After Chen Qingfeng returned home, he hurried to the study to find the key to Chen Erniu's house.

Chen Qingfeng was about to go out with the key, but was stopped by Mrs. Li.

"Qingfeng, what are you doing with the key of the second uncle's house?" Xiao Li asked.

"Mother, the second uncle and the second aunt are back and asked me for the key. I'll send it to them." Chen Qingfeng was a little helpless.

"Ah? Your second uncle and second aunt are back? I'll go and see too." Mrs. Li chased after her.

"Mother, don't go." Chen Qingfeng grabbed Xiao Li's arm and said.

Thinking of how Chen Wangshi and Chen Erniu were buried, Chen Qingfeng really didn't want his mother to come over now.

"Mother is not here to take advantage of your second aunt. Mother is just to see if they need help. Your father said before that your second uncle and the others will not come back in a year or two. I can't get enough energy for the time, and I haven't cleaned the next door. Go over and say it now, so that your second aunt won't think that mother did it on purpose." Xiao Li hurriedly explained.

"Mother, only the second uncle and the second aunt came back this time. Qingshan Qingshi and the others are all gone. I suspect that something happened to the second uncle and the second aunt." Chen Qingfeng showed the dirty look of Chen Erniu and his wife to Xiao Li described it.

Xiao Li was dumbfounded.

"How did this happen? When your second uncle left, he said that Xiao'e's adoptive father is a high-ranking official, and they will definitely return home! No, your father is most worried about his second brother. I have to go and see .” Xiao Li raised her leg and walked out.

"Mother, don't worry. It's not too late for us to visit after my second uncle and aunt clean up and settle down! Go now, my second aunt might think you're here to see her for a joke!" Chen Qingfeng A word of persuasion.

To be honest, if it wasn't for the sake of relatives, Chen Qingfeng wouldn't bother with Chen Wang at all.

Chen Wang's personality is bitter and mean, and he likes to think of people as bad in everything.

"Okay! I'll visit them in an hour." Mrs. Li thought for a while and asked, "Qingfeng! Your second uncle and aunt came back from poverty, and they must have no money in their pockets. I will visit them later. Now, take thirty catties of sweet potatoes, okay?"

"Mom, our family has less than [-] catties of sweet potatoes! When Zimu and Zizhen were growing up again, if we let go of our stomachs to eat such a small amount of food, it would not be enough for our family to feed for two months. Now in the county There is no more food to buy, what should we do if you give the second uncle so much?" Chen Qingfeng was a little unhappy.

As usual, Chen Qingfeng would definitely have no objection to Mrs. Li sending [-] catties of sweet potatoes to the neighbor next door.

But nowadays, food is not only expensive, but there is nowhere to buy it!Gold is precious!
"Then... Mother will take two... ten catties over?" Mrs. Li asked cautiously.

"Okay!" Chen Qingfeng was a little annoyed, he didn't want to hear what Xiao Li said, so he walked away.

Looking at Chen Qingfeng's back, Xiao Li sighed.

In the past, when the rebel army entered the village, they only picked villagers from good families to rob them.

The brick and tile house where the Chen Daniu brothers lived became the focus of the rebels.

Both Chen Daniu's and Chen Erniu's houses were thoroughly inspected and raped by the rebels, and not even a single grain of rice was left behind.

It took Chen Qingfeng a lot of effort to get back the hundreds of catties of sweet potatoes at home.

Mrs. Li knows the importance of food.

However, Chen Erniu is Chen Daniu's direct brother.

Although Chen Daniu was dead, Chen Qingfeng, a nephew, would never see Chen Erniu in trouble, and he was unwilling to extend his hand.

Otherwise, Chen Qingfeng's reputation as Lizheng would definitely be affected.

Mrs. Li would rather eat less by herself than leave Chen Erniu and his wife alone.

After Xiao Li made up her mind, she went back to her room to find a cloth bag, and hurriedly walked towards the granary.

An hour later, Mrs. Li went out with a small bag of sweet potatoes.

Huang Yuejiao stood in the corridor, staring at Xiao Li's back as if her gaze had been poisoned.

Huang Yuejiao was about to die of anger.

These days, in order to save some food, their family only eats two meals a day.For each meal, each person can only get a small piece of sweet potato.

Huang Yuejiao is so hungry!

Hungry hands and feet are weak, and even the strength is gone.

But what about her mother-in-law?

They don't have enough food for themselves, and the mother-in-law actually takes the food to give away?

Chen Erniu's house.

After Chen Erniu and his wife entered the house, they quickly boiled a large pot of water to take a bath.

After half an hour, Chen Erniu and his wife finally tidied themselves up.

"Old lady, hurry up and make me something to eat." Chen Erniu sat on the recliner, stroked "Googoo"'s stomach, and ordered.

"The head of the house, there is no oil or salt at home, why don't I go to the next door and ask my sister-in-law for some?" Chen Wang asked.

"En. Hurry up and come back soon." Chen Erniu waved his hands, looking like a gentleman.

Chen Wang responded, went to the utility room and found a basket, carried it and left.

Anyway, borrowing more and borrowing less is borrowing, and Chen Wang is used to "borrowing".

As long as there is something next door, as soon as Chen Wang asks, Xiao Li will definitely give it.

In fact, Chen Wang also felt very hungry.

If it weren't for Chen Erniu's urging, Chen Wang would really like to go to the granary and eat a sweet potato, which would fill his stomach anyway.

As soon as Mrs. Chen walked to the door, Mrs. Li's voice came from outside the door.

"Siblings, younger siblings~!"

"Yo~! It's sister-in-law! Please come in, please come in." When Chen Wang saw the cloth bag in Xiao Li's hand, his smiling eyes almost narrowed into slits.

Chen Wang knows that Xiao Li is generous.

Chen Wangshi was thinking about what was in the cloth bag!

"Brothers and sisters, sister-in-law's house doesn't have any good things. I'll give you and my second brother these ten catties of sweet potatoes." After entering the door, Mrs. Li put the cloth bag in the main room and said.

"Sweet potato? Ten catties?" Chen Wang was stunned.

Why did sister-in-law become so stingy?

When my uncle used to send sweet potatoes to their family, it was often a hundred catties.

Sweet potatoes are only a penny a catty!

Ten catties of sweet potatoes?

How did the sister-in-law manage to make a move?
Chen Wang's face was long, very unhappy.

"Second brother, younger brother and sister, it's not harvest time yet, and my family doesn't have much food. I thought you just came back, and there shouldn't be any food at home. These ten catties of sweet potatoes..." Xiao Li looked at Chen. Wang's face was getting darker and darker, and suddenly she didn't want to explain.

This couple's temperament is like this, they only know how to take, but don't know how to be grateful.
