Chapter 91 Mother’s family sends food
When the two brothers Lin Yicheng and Lin Ercheng arrived at the door of Nanzhi's house, they looked a little strange at the horse hoof prints all over the ground.
"Is there someone coming to Fat Ya's house?"
"I don't know, it smells like it." Lin Ercheng covered his nose. He smelled a horse smell as soon as he came over.
After waiting for a while, Lin Yicheng was a little surprised when he didn't hear anyone coming to open the door.
Where can Fat Ya and Zhiyu go on this hot day?
After waiting for another quarter of an hour, Nanzhi still didn't come out to open the door. Lin Yicheng and Lin Ercheng were a little worried that something had happened to the two of them.
Thinking about it, he patted the door again.
"Brother Lin, brother Lin?" Shen Yuntian heard the noise coming from next door and then poked his head out. When he saw Lin Yicheng and Lin Ercheng, the two brothers immediately smiled and said hello.
"Yuntian." Lin Yicheng looked at Shen Yuntian who had just taken two steps forward and asked, "Do you know where Fatty has gone? We knocked for a long time and didn't see her come out."
Shen Yuntian looked at the closed courtyard door next door, smiled and stepped aside, calling them to come into his house to rest: "Brother Lin, brother Lin, you guys, please come in first. Sister-in-law Lin, my mother and the others went to the mountains to escape the summer heat together. It's too late." Come back later."
The two brothers looked at each other and didn't refuse. They just said thank you and went into Shen's house.
It's almost midnight now, and if I stay outside any longer, I'm afraid I'll be sunburned and look like a fool.
"Yuntian, why do I see that everywhere in your village is bare?" Lin Yicheng nodded as Lin Ercheng spoke.
When they first entered the village, they felt something was wrong.
The land outside the village looked sparsely populated before, but today they couldn't see even a single blade of grass in the land.
It was even more strange after entering the village. Every piece of the trees had been chewed into pieces.
Is it possible that Lihua Village has reached the point where it can’t afford food and can only eat leaves?
Just thinking about it, the two brothers shook their heads. After all, Lihua Village was much richer than their Dashi Village. Even if their own family started to chew bark, Lihua Village might not eat leaves.
"There was a locust plague a few days ago. Didn't you, Dashi Village, have any?"
Shen Yuntian looked strange and looked at them a little confused.
Why does it sound like there is no locust plague in Dashi Village?
"Locust plague?" Lin Yicheng was shocked and looked at each other with his brother.
"What locust plague?"
Now the three people's expressions didn't look very good.
Although the two villages are separated by more than ten miles, how can it be possible that one village is hit by a disaster and the other is not affected by anything?
Could it be that those locusts still know the way?
Pointing at something in Pear Blossom Village and chewing it?
Nanzhi and the others were not seen back until noon. Shen Dazhu went to the kitchen skillfully, while Shen Yuntian greeted the two Lin brothers to eat at home, and watched each of them take out a multi-grain pancake.
"No, no, we can just eat this." Lin Yicheng smiled and broke off a piece of pancake in his hand. Their mother-in-law said that they can't go without food when they go out.
And it’s not easy to eat in other people’s homes these days.
So every time they go out, they will bring two pancakes in case of emergency.
Isn’t this just the right thing to use?
Shen Yuntian didn't call for help, but before dinner, Shen Dashan came to call for help again.
"120%, come over and eat something together."
Shen Dazhu lit a dry cigarette. Today, his wife, her daughter-in-law, and her grandchildren all went to the mountains to escape the summer heat. They were the only senior men left at home. It was rare that they were left alone, so they spoke louder.
"No, uncle, we brought pancakes." Lin Ercheng smiled and shook his head.
"Can you eat it without choking? Boss, pour them two bowls of soup."
Shen Xing sighed, scooped up two bowls of soup and sent them over, and then started eating.
Shen Yuntian's originally smiling face froze when he took the first bite of food.
Resisting the urge to spit it out, I quickly poured a mouthful of wild vegetable soup into my mouth.
Sure enough, my father’s cooking was terrible.
Watching the two Lin brothers eating deliciously, I felt a little envious for a moment.
However, the two brothers seemed to have no sense of taste, and they ate without changing their expressions.
But Shen Dazhu sighed: "The craftsmanship has retreated a bit, eh."
A group of people on Dongshan were laughing.
Nanzhi smiled and pinched Zhiyu's face before continuing to chat with Shen Miaomiao.
"Sister Nanzhi, do you think what he said is true or not?" The little girl blushed, pouted and shook Nanzhi's arm.
"How do I know that? But it's good to watch others."
Nanzhi didn't say much, just smiled and scratched her nose.
Shen Wenchen's brothers didn't appear much in the novel, but she remembered that all of them got official positions in the end. If Miaomiao could be with Twelve, it would be a good choice.
"I just don't know if he will lie to me." The little girl said, with a hint of sadness on her pretty face.
"I'm just a girl from the village. What does he like about me? Even if he likes me, his family still has to deal with it! Let me just take it as hope. Even if he lied to me, I won't I was happy for a while.”
Nanzhi was surprised after hearing her words, but he never thought that this little girl was a rare understanding person.
"Sister Nanzhi, what are you looking at me for? Although I am usually carefree, I am not a fool." Shen Miaomiao noticed Nanzhi's surprise and pouted her lips higher.
She is so smart!
In the evening, with the sun slanting over the mountains, the group packed up and prepared to go home.
Seeing several women starting to fetch water, Nanzhi understood.
There is little water in the wells in the village now, and the river at the foot of the mountain is almost dry. It just so happens that everyone goes up the mountain to enjoy the cool air, and can still carry some water back when they go back.
After going down the mountain, Nanzhi was stopped by Lin Yicheng and Lin Ercheng before he entered the house.
"Fat Ya, you're finally back." Lin Yicheng said, saying goodbye to the three Shen brothers before walking towards Nazhi.
"Ah, 120% are here?" Aunt Liu greeted the two brothers with a smile.
"Hey, auntie."
The group of people said hello before heading home.
Shen Zhiyu was even more happy to see his two uncles. He held one by one hand and started talking about what happened at home these days.
"Uncle and uncle, my father is back!"
Lin Yicheng and Lin Ercheng were stunned. Hasn't his brother-in-law been dead for three years?
Why are you back?
Is this the return of the soul at night?
"Zhiyu's father is not dead, but something happened. He came back a few days ago and just left this morning." Nanzhi saw the confusion of his two brothers and explained.
Lin Ercheng didn't say anything for a while, followed into the courtyard, closed the door, and then said with a dark face: "What can happen to leave you alone at home for three years? You brought Zhiyu to him to take care of his parents, and he just came back now ?”
"I can't explain this matter at the moment." Nanzhi didn't say much, fearing that his two brothers would be angry, so he quickly changed the subject: "What's the matter with you coming here today? There was a locust plague in the village for two days a few days ago. , I came out of nowhere, is there something going on at home?"
"Isn't this the rabbit skin from last time that has been processed? Mother asked us to bring you some more meat and food." Lin Yicheng spoke, reaching out to lift the black cloth on the backpack, revealing several pictures inside. Rabbit skins and jerky.
"We have some at home, you can take them home to eat." Nanzhi waved her hands when she saw the dried meat. Shen Wenchen, Shiyi and the others had been bringing a lot of things home these days.
