Chapter 346 Stay overnight

   "Who are you?" A little milk doll ran out, looked at Lin Xue, looked up curiously, "What a beautiful sister!"

   "Little sister, is your lord at home?" Lin Xue squatted down, because this little doll was too small, she had to squat down to be at eye level with her.

   "Xiao Mao, who is it?" At this time, another woman in her thirties came out from the inside, wearing patched clothes, and the color of the washing was faded.

   "Hello, comrade! I'm from Kyoto, and it's getting dark when I pass by here, so... I want to stay overnight! Look... Is it convenient?" Lin Xue said her request.

  When the two of them went out, it was Lin Xue's job to communicate with others. Zhang Yuan only needed to take good care of his wife.

  Qian Guirong took a look at the clothes of the two of them. He looked like a rich man, and the two young people looked good enough. They shouldn't be liars, right?

   "It's okay... It's just that there's nothing to eat at home... If you don't mind, you can eat with us!"

  Looking at her clothes, Lin Xue knew that this family must not be rich, but she also didn't like to eat those coarse grains, so she waved her hand.

   "Sister, we only stay overnight, and we bring our own dry food, so don't worry about our food!" He pointed to the small car outside, "We drive by ourselves, so we bring food and drink with us!"

   "That's fine! Wait a minute! I'm going to clean up your room! It's my uncle's room. He's out of work and isn't home. You can live there tonight!"

  Qian Guirong quickly took the broom and went to tidy up. Not long after, she tidied up and came out a little embarrassed.

   "Comrade, this... do you have your own luggage? It's so good that my brother-in-law took his luggage away, and there is no extra at home!"

  Lin Xue nodded immediately after hearing this, "Yes, yes! Thank you, big sister! Let's go and bring in the luggage!"

   Said she was going to get the luggage, but how could Zhang Yuan let her carry things! He ran to the car, got in the car, quickly took out a suit from the space, and then brought back some food in the trunk.

  It’s deceptive, his wife can’t eat the dry pancakes, and the jerky that the mother-in-law put in has already been eaten, and the rest are either home-baked pancakes or pastries.

  Qian Guirong ignored them and went back to the house.

  The two of them made the bed, and not long after they sat down, they heard a lot of footsteps outside the courtyard gate, accompanied by a few sighs.

"Father, what's the matter? The commune doesn't distribute relief food, and the villagers are almost unable to get rid of it! The old Li's house has been shut down, and the milk baby is crying! I guess if the relief food does not come down, it may be too late." I can't feed anymore!" Along with a sigh, a man's voice sounded, although he sounded quite young, but he was very weak, obviously hungry.

   "Then what should I do! I have gone to look for it many times, but the commune secretary said that the superiors have not yet been transferred! We ordinary people have no money! Otherwise, the grain station can still buy grain!" A somewhat old voice followed.

  The blind old lady who was sitting at the door also stood up, "Boy! Don't you have any gains?" Her hand on crutches was still trembling.

   "Mother, why are you sitting at the gate of the courtyard again? It's windy in spring, be careful if you catch a cold!" the man who was called Dad at first said.

  Lin Xue couldn't bear it any longer, so she leaned over the window to look, only to see a large family of men and women at the gate of the courtyard, who seemed to be looking for something to eat.

   But with the disappointed expression on his face, there should be no gain.

   "Grandma! I'll carry you in! Why doesn't Guirong care about you? Come! The eldest grandson carries you!" It should be the eldest son of the family, the young man who just complained about the commune stepped forward and knelt down.

  His father helped him put the old man on his back and walked into the house.

"Where is Guirong free? Don't talk about my granddaughter-in-law! The children are very fussy, crying for hunger! I asked Guirong to tear down all the pillows in our house. There is uncracked buckwheat in the buckwheat husk! "The old lady said proudly. Although she couldn't see her eyes, her face was full of pride. "I tell you! If you take apart all the pillows, you might have a meal of buckwheat porridge!"

  The old lady was proud of what she said, and everyone's eyes lit up when they heard it. Qi Feifei, the youngest granddaughter, said, "Grandma, is it true?"

   "Of course it's true!" The old lady said to the little granddaughter following the voice, on the back of the eldest grandson.

   "Great, then I'll help my sister-in-law!" After speaking, he ran in bouncingly.

   "My child, you're not hungry anymore, are you?" Mrs. Qi shook her head feebly.

  Old Qi’s family has three sons and a daughter. Only the eldest son is married. He has two children, one is three and a half years old and the other is only eight months old.

  The two sons of the family have gone out to look for work, leaving a blind grandmother, the old couple, the young couple and the youngest daughter are only thirteen years old.

  Qian Guirong hurried out after hearing the voice, and opened the door for the man, "Leizi, haven't you found anything to eat?"

  When I asked, my face was full of disappointment. Now there is only half a catty of millet in the family. The adults are reluctant to eat it, so they only boil gruel for the two children.

  Because she couldn’t eat enough and couldn’t eat well, she had no milk for a long time. The youngest son, who had only grown four teeth at only eight months, had to drink millet porridge with his sister, and cried every day because of hunger.

   Qi Lei shook his head, "No! Alas! Let's put grandma on the kang first!"

   Then carry the old man on his back and walk inside.

  Followed by a large family, the little girl Qi Fei has already taken over the work of the sister-in-law and started to dig buckwheat husks.

  I couldn't find anything at all, I almost gnawed on the roots of the tree. Who would leave the food in the shell?

"Leizi... There are two lodgers at home! I decided to tidy up Chengzi's room for them to live in!" When Qi Lei put the old lady down, Qian Guirong pulled her away worriedly, and said something in a low voice .

   "Why do you still leave outsiders at home? I don't know if there is nothing to eat at home? What are you using to entertain guests?" Qi Lei looked a little disapproving, but he also whispered about his daughter-in-law.

   "They don't have to eat at home, they said they brought dry food with them, but it was getting dark, so they just stayed for one night!" Qian Guirong heard what his man said, and hurriedly said that he didn't need to eat at home.

   "How can this work... Don't you understand the truth that everyone is a customer when you come to the door?" Qi Lei even blamed his daughter-in-law for not knowing etiquette.

   "But there is only a little millet left at home, that's for my son!" Qian Guirong was about to cry.

  Seeing the young couple whispering something next to him, Father Qi turned his head and gave his old wife a wink.

   Mrs. Qi understood in seconds, and asked, "What are you two talking about?"

Qian Guirong turned around in shock, her eyes were red, and she confided, "Mom, I'm sorry, it's my fault! I shouldn't have let outsiders stay at home! I... I, I let them come in because they said they wouldn't eat at home! "

  Qi Lei couldn't stop it even if he wanted to, this silly daughter-in-law is just so bald.

   "What? There are guests at home? Why didn't you tell me earlier?" When Father Qi heard this, he quickly asked, "Where is the person?"

   "In...in Chengzi's room!" Qian Guirong pointed outside with his finger.
