Lucky Girl: Take the Space To Escape From the Famine

   Chapter 268 Everyone Helps

   At this time, the city lord's mansion was also busy. Almost all the villagers who were recalled from Changling Village came to the kitchen to help. Even outside the kitchen, there were many people who were cutting vegetables and washing them.

   Several large rice jars were placed behind the tall stove. Since the stove blocked the view, Yin Miao put rice, millet, sorghum and other miscellaneous grains into different jars directly from the space.

   At present, it is a hassle to transport food into the city lord's mansion, and she also hopes that this will save a few times of food.

  The stove room was filled with the sweet taste of porridge and rice, but the villagers who came to help were already full, so they all concentrated on cooking the porridge.

   "Don't be idle, I just went outside to take a look. There are too many people coming to get the porridge, and the pot on the stall is about to bottom out every half an hour."

   Wei Lizheng's wife shouted loudly, during which she did not forget to bring in the sweet potato pieces cut outside and pour it into the pot.

   "Don't worry, we cooked porridge all night last night, so there shouldn't be any interruptions."

Zhao Man's daughter-in-law Li Yan replied while stirring the porridge. Now Zhao Man and Zhao Laosi have both become soldiers of the government. Although she is doing the work in the Yin family's courtyard, it is time to employ people, so they all here to help.

   Even Wei and Zhen are busy inside and out.

   "The last time the mansion was so lively was when your brother-in-law and I got married."

  Xiao Xianxian stood by the door and remembered.

   She could see that Xiao Xuan and Yin Miao had people they could trust. These villagers were all rushing to work, but they had a very good relationship with Yin Miao's family.

   No wonder Sun Zili praised them all.

   "Yes, it has never been so lively in the capital."

Through the heat rising from the cauldron, Xiao Xuan's eyes never left Yin Miao, Xiao Xianxian looked at Xiao Xuan with a smile and shook her head, the ninth brother who is so rational actually has such a side, but in her opinion Come, these two complement each other and are a good match. Perhaps this time Xiao Xuan really got a blessing in disguise.

   While busy, a few small figures came running from the backyard. Brother Han held two children of the same age with his left and right hands, and shouted excitedly, "Mother, can we help too?"

   He and Luo Xiaobao made a new friend of the same age, Sun Ledong, who is also the eldest son of Sun Zili and Xiao Xianxian. Because Xiao Xianxian insisted on letting him go to a private school in the city, he was rarely seen these days.

  Today, the city started to cook porridge, and there was chaos everywhere, so Xiao Xianxian simply stopped his private school.

   "How can you kids help? Go over there and play."

   Wei Shi sent the road.

   "Auntie, I am very strong, my father is a general."

  Sun Ledong's temperament is somewhat like Sun Zili, and he is familiar with everyone. After he finished speaking, he pulled up his sleeve and exposed an arm to show that he was very strong.

   "Okay, there's not much meat left, you can play here if you want, as long as you don't make any trouble."

  Xiao Xianxian is both sad and funny. Sun Ledong used to be really strong, but in the past few months, there was no food at home, and he had lost a lot of weight at a speed visible to the naked eye.

   "Why don't you help to water the ground."

  Yin Miao took out a small bag of seeds from somewhere. It was a bag of vegetable seeds. She planned to plant them in the flower bed in the middle of the yard. Anyway, such a large piece of land has been deserted all the time.

The reason why    came up with this idea is because there is a lot of water for washing things outside their kitchen. The water is already very dirty, and everyone is reluctant to throw it away, but they don’t know where to use the water.

   "I'll come first, I'll grow vegetables."

  Luo Xiaobao took the seeds from Yin Miao's hands. He had seen Ma Cuihua farming many times.

   "Okay, then this task will be handed over to you. In the future, it will be up to you whether you have any food to eat."

  Yin Miao said to the three little radishes.

  The three of them cheered and ran into the garden flower bed, and started their own vegetable planting plan with great interest.

   "It's still my sister who has a way."

   Xiao Xianxian said with a smile.

   "Maybe you can really grow vegetables."

   But everyone laughed when they heard Yin Miao's words, even if there is some washing water now, there will be no vegetables growing in the cracked flower bed in the future.

   On the first day of the city lord's mansion, the porridge was uninterrupted, and Sun Zili did not return to the mansion to rest until his arms could no longer be lifted. It's just that he couldn't fall asleep for a long time, and the skinny faces of the victims kept flashing across his mind.

   The people of Shangyun City were worse than he imagined.

   "Don't be sad, at least we don't have to suffer from war in the city, and there is no food, so there is nothing we can do."

   Xiao Xianxian comforted her softly.

   "Even though they have already been forced into such a situation, they are still thanking me. I am such a failed city lord, I really let them down too much."

  Sun Zili was extremely grateful to Xiao Xuan and Yin Miao at this time.

   "Okay, instead of hurting spring and autumn here, it's better to rest early and work tomorrow."

  Xiao Xianxian slapped Sun Zili's sighs away, and the man felt comforted in his heart and fell asleep...

  On the second day of the porridge in Shangyun City, many people and refugees from Anmu City began to line up in the rear. First, it was because they found that the people of Shangyun City were much more miserable than they were, and secondly, they believed in the city lord's words, saying that it was only three days of porridge, and the days would only be more or less.

   This is indeed the case. The porridge outside the city lord's mansion did not end until the fifth day, which greatly exceeded the expectations of the officials.

  The officials in the city who were originally inclined to Wang Yixiu's faction also wanted to visit Sun Zili to see what trump cards he had. However, the City Lord's Mansion kept closed for two days after the porridge was finished.

In the past two days, the soldiers in the city lord's mansion, as well as the villagers and people who have been used as slaves, have all rested in the mansion. The most busy are still the cooks, because although they no longer need to cook porridge, they have to do the whole mansion. people's meals.

   "It seems that the house still needs to recruit some more cooks to come in."

  Sun Zili felt a little embarrassed, now even Xiao Xuan's Yunhe, Wei and Zhen are busy in the kitchen every day.

   "As long as it is reassuring enough, brother-in-law can decide for himself."

   Xiao Xuan said, because they still have a lot of things to do next.

   On the third day after the porridge was served in the city lord's mansion, a business firm directly opposite the mansion reopened, and the news spread quickly. It is said that this business firm can actually exchange food!

   "It's true! I exchanged a jade pendant on my body for food!"

  Someone was talking excitedly in the streets.

   "What about gold and silver? Can gold and silver be exchanged?"

   "I heard that you can't do it. You only need jade objects."

   "The company can not only exchange food, but is also recruiting people to work. It is said that the wages are also distributed with food..."

  There was a lot of discussion, and the outside of the city lord's mansion, which had just been cleaned of jade for two days, soon became lively again.
