During the lean years, I relied on space to pamper my husband and raise my children.

Shen Qianning stepped forward without hesitation, glanced at the people in the village and said: "There are risks when we exchange food for land. If the land is exchanged and it never rains, the land will be useless. It is up to you whether to exchange it or not. If you feel it is not suitable, , just don’t change it!”

She calculated that it was about forty pounds.

The forty kilograms of grain saved is enough to feed a family for a month.

At this point, Shen Qianning was silent for a moment, and then said: "If it weren't for the sake of the people in the same village, I would not be willing to exchange for this food. It is originally a life-saving thing."

Uncle Xiao hesitated.

Finally, he figured it out. Life was the most important thing right now. His family had six acres of land. He could just exchange one acre of land for forty kilograms of grain. Plus the grain stored at home, he could go somewhere else.

So the first one stood up and said: "I am willing to trade with you, but I will only give you one acre of land in exchange."

Shen Qianning agreed and immediately signaled Xiao Feiye to weigh the food.

The grain was put into sacks and weighed under the supervision of Mr. Xiao's son. After it was weighed, Mr. Xiao took out the land deed for one acre of land.

The land deed was given to Shen Qianning, and the land became Shen Qianning's.

With the first, there is the second.

Several families in the village came to exchange food.

Some offered two acres of land, some offered three acres of land, but most were only willing to offer one acre of land.

Boss Xiao stood outside the crowd and watched enviously.

In just a short time, Shen Qianning's family returned with more than ten acres of land.

This is more than ten acres of land!

What should I do if he is also very excited?

Liu Chunxiang came up at this time.

She originally lay down at home, because lying down consumes less energy and makes her hungry slower.

As a result, the noise outside was too loud, so I came out to watch the fun.

When Boss Xiao saw Liu Chunxiang, he became very angry: "What are you doing out here? Go back and lie down quickly."

Sure enough, Shen Qianning was right, Liu Chunxiang and Xiao Qin were of no use at all.

Liu Chunxiang was very afraid of Boss Xiao. When Boss Xiao yelled at her, she shrank her neck and said, "Why are you so mean? Why don't I go back?"

Boss Xiao was too lazy to talk to Liu Chunxiang and watched as the food became less and less.

With more and more land deeds in Shen Qianning's hands, she stepped forward with a heartbeat.

By this time, the villagers who had exchanged food had already left.

The rest of the food in the yard has not been replaced with food.

No matter how important the land is, it is not as important as food!

Xiao Feiye was afraid that he would run out of food, so he brought a few bags into the house. These must not be changed, so he kept them for himself.

Boss Xiao was even more panicked because there was really not much food left in the yard.

“Can the house be exchanged for food?”

He wanted to exchange all his property for food, and then take the food to find a place with water and start over.

As soon as Shen Qianning saw Boss Xiao, he felt disgusted.

But thinking about this dilapidated house at home, it is not impossible if Boss Xiao is willing to take out his house to replace it.

After all, when Xiao Feiye's parents were still there, they built the courtyard's fence very high.

The higher the fence, the higher the safety factor.

He raised his chin slightly and said, "What? You want to trade your house for food?"

Xiao Feiye said nothing, just stared at Boss Xiao quietly.

He did not interfere in this matter and completely let Shen Qianning make the decision.

Boss Xiao now owns two houses. One is a house that was deceived from Xiao Feiye through a trick, and the other is the old house where he used to live.

Boss Xiao nodded and said: "Change! Let's change it to the old yard of Fei Ye's family. I want two hundred catties... no, three hundred catties of grain."

Hearing this number, Shen Qianning glanced at Boss Xiao with disdain.

He mocked: "I'm afraid you're not smart. Do you think I can give you so much food? Three hundred catties? Are you really a lion?"

Even if one acre of land costs 12 taels of silver, forty kilograms is worth 12 taels of silver.

Xiao Feiye's old house was estimated to be worth only thirty taels of silver.

Boss Xiao asked: "Then how much food will you give me?"

Shen Qianning raised her eyebrows and said decisively: "160 pounds of whole grains, whether you like it or not, I won't change it."

She knows people like Boss Xiao very well. The more shame you give him, the more arrogant he becomes.

Boss Xiao was silent for a moment, and finally said: "Okay! I still have five acres of land on hand, and I will replace it."

In this way, he has 360 kilograms of whole grains. With so much grain, he still can't prosper! "

Ask Boss Xiao to bring the house deed and land deed.

Xiao Dahai, Liu Chunhua and Xiao Qin were all called.

None of the three people expected that Mr. Xiao would make such a prompt decision to exchange food.

However, the happiest person among them was Xiao Qin.

After her quarrel with Shen Qianning that day, she felt the change in her father-in-law's and her husband-in-law's attitude towards her.

They all thought she was just a freeloader. If she hadn't wanted her to give birth to a son for Xiao Dahai, she would have ended up like Shen Qianning.

It will also be sold mercilessly by Xiao Dahai and his family.

As long as she can get out of here, she will be safe.

At that time, if you encounter a good one, you must stay away from Xiao Dahai.

Liu Chunxiang had no objection either.

If there is food at home, there will be no trouble for her.

So after Boss Xiao gave the house and land deeds to Shen Qianning, he asked the whole family to take away all the more than 300 kilograms of food.

The remaining people in the village also exchanged land deeds for food.

There were only two to three hundred kilograms of grain left on the ground in the yard.

Now that there was no one left, Shen Qianning finally couldn't hold it any longer.

He laughed "hahaha".

She calculated the land exchanged and found that a total of thirty acres had been exchanged.

Thirty acres!This is no small amount.

After it snows and rains, the fields can be sown.

It was just the beginning of spring, and she must make life easier for her family.

Xiao Feiye rarely saw Shen Qianning so happy.

For some reason, seeing Shen Qianning like this, he felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction.

The two men carried the grain into the house.

It was a good harvest today. Shen Qianning used the wild boar trimmings he brought back to boil oil, and then cooked the soaked dried vegetables at home.

Finally, I put in the miscellaneous grains I exchanged for today.

She still changed the water when Xiao Feiye wasn't paying attention.

She still couldn't stand water with wild boar urine in it.

She was so happy today that she cooked a big pot of paste.

I took the opportunity to add two compressed biscuits.

The whole family had a full meal.

After Xiao Feiye finished eating, he habitually moved a stool and sat under the eaves.

The low courtyard wall offers an unobstructed view when looking outside.

Shen Qianning wanted to eat up, so she walked slowly in circles in the yard.

"When will we collect the yard?" Xiao Feiye broke the silence.

When Shen Qianning thought of Boss Xiao's disgusting face, she quickly said: "Tomorrow! Let's go tomorrow!"

Boss Xiao and his family must be driven away immediately so that she can move into a big house.

Everyone in the village planned to flee, leaving only five or six families behind.

These people did not flee the famine because they had no choice but to do so because the elderly at home felt they could not withstand the hardships on the road.
