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

Shen Qianning really opened her mouth to lie.

But she didn't feel guilty at all. This was a white lie, and she was lying for the good of the family!

Xiao Feiye felt incredible: "So you bought it?"

Shen Qianning nodded: "I negotiated the price for a long time and bought it for a few hundred yuan. Husband, you won't blame me!"

If it were in the past, Xiao Feiye might have minded and felt that Shen Qianning was spending money indiscriminately.

But now he has no such thoughts, especially seeing Shen Qianning's cautious eyes, he only thinks that Shen Qianning is particularly cute at this moment.

"How can I blame you? You must have thought carefully when buying seeds. Anyway, we have a lot of land, so you can plant it if you want! It doesn't matter if you can't plant it."

These words were so sincere that Shen Qianning was prepared to be blamed by Xiao Feiye, but he did not expect Xiao Feiye's attitude to be so considerate.

He said sincerely: "Husband, you are so kind."

Xiao Feiye smiled honestly and said: "You are tired too, sit on the carriage and rest for a while!"

Shen Qianning stuffed three taels of broken silver into Xiao Feiye's hand.

"Husband, please keep the money you got in exchange for this. I still have some here. There are many people in the city to buy food. It will probably take a quarter of an hour for us to queue into the city. You eat the steamed buns first, and I will push the cart."

Xiao Feiye was reluctant to let Shen Qianning push the cart.

Pushing a stroller is hard work, especially with three children on board.

So he ate the steamed buns in a few mouthfuls and said with a smile: "I'm done eating. You can sit on the cart and rest for a while."

Shen Qianning thoughtfully handed over the water.

Finally, about two quarters of an hour passed before entering the city.

The people in the city knew from the way they dressed that they were from poor families.

The clothes on everyone's body are very shabby, and everyone has one thing in common, that is, they are thin.

Everyone is extremely thin.

Shen Qianning's family of five is relatively conspicuous among the crowd.

Xiao Feiye is tall and looks relatively strong, but he has not encountered anyone who is looking for trouble.

There is still a long queue outside the food store.

Xiao Feiye was a little anxious, put the bike frame on the ground, looked at the long queue worriedly and said, "Why are there so many people?"

Everyone is busy with spring plowing.

Shen Qianning said worriedly: "I'm afraid it won't be our turn until the evening. Husband, if it doesn't work, let's go back first. You will go to the city alone the day after tomorrow, so come early."

Just after saying this, the shopkeeper's voice came from ahead.

"Today's grain seeds are sold out. If you want to buy, come back tomorrow."

Many people refused to give up and came forward to ask, but the shopkeeper said they were sold out.

Xiao Feiye was also decisive. If the shopkeeper said it was not available, it would be gone. Without any hesitation, he pushed the cart and left.

"Qian Ning, I'll take you to buy some food."

The children came to the county town with them, so they couldn't just eat a few big steamed buns, but the family only had so little money left, so they had to save some money.

After the spring plowing, he would go find work and earn money to redeem Shen Qianning's dowry and buy a new one.

The children clamored for meat.

The remaining wild boar meat had long been eaten.

The children were greedy, Xiao Feiye was still hesitant, but Shen Qianning immediately decided to buy meat.

There were no vegetable sellers in the vegetable market. There was only one meat stall standing alone in the vegetable market.

There were many people watching from a distance, but no one came forward to buy.

Shen Qianning went with Xiao Xiyue in her arms.

When the boss saw that a customer finally came to the door, he happily stepped forward to say hello.

"Ma'am, do you want to buy meat?"

Xiao Xiyue looked at the meat and couldn't move his eyes away.

Shen Qianning knew that the children wanted to eat fat, so he pointed to the fatter piece and said, "This piece of meat looks good, how much does it cost per pound?"

The boss smiled very enthusiastically: "Twenty cents a pound."

Shen Qianning frowned slightly when he heard twenty cents, but finally made up his mind to buy two kilograms.

This is the first time I bought two kilograms of meat this year, so I am definitely a big buyer.

So the butcher stall owner enthusiastically gave a few kilograms of bones to Shen Qianning.

It's just that the pork bones are very clean and there is no meat at all.

Pork bones are a good thing.

Go home and stew it carefully. The children will drink it just right.

When Xiao Feiye saw Shen Qianning buying two kilograms of meat, he felt a little distressed about the money.

But the thought passed away in a flash, and he knew that Shen Qianning had good intentions.

There were only cereals at home, so Shen Qianning simply suggested buying some beans.

Beans and grain stores have them.

After buying two kilograms, the family went back.

There was no queue to buy seeds today, so Xiao Feiye felt a little depressed.

Shen Qianning wanted to push the cart with Xiao Feiye instead.

But he was directly rejected by Xiao Feiye.

On the carriage, Shen Qianning held Xiao Xiyue, while Xiao Dongchen and Xiao Nanchuan leaned on Shen Qianning.

It was already dark when we returned to the village, but it wasn't dark at all because there was still snow all around.

However, when they reached the entrance of the village, they saw a house in the village with lights on.

"Has anyone come back from the village?" Shen Qianning asked curiously.

Xiao Feiye frowned and glanced at the lighted position and said, "It seems to be Uncle Xiao's family."

After returning home, Xiao Feiye told Shen Qianning to close the door and went to Uncle Xiao's house.

Mr. Xiao and his son and daughter-in-law are helping to clean up the yard.

Xiao Feiye appeared, and Mr. Xiao was very happy.

"Feiye, have you gone to the county seat?"

Xiao Feiye frowned slightly as he looked at Mr. Xiao who was walking up to him. Mr. Xiao was thinner than when he left.

It seems that life outside is not easy either.

Xiao Feiye said: "I originally wanted to go to the county town to buy some grain seeds so that they can be planted during spring plowing. However, there were too many people buying grain seeds in the county town today. They were all sold out without even queuing up. Uncle Xiao, your family went there. Where to escape?"

Uncle Xiao's son Xiao Ji came over.

But what was different from his previous indifferent attitude was that this time Xiao Ji had a smile on his face, and his attitude towards Xiao Feiye was obviously much kinder.

This change made Xiao Feiye somewhat unexpected.

Xiao Ji played quite well with Xiao Feiye when he was a child. He was older than Xiao Feiye and he used to protect Xiao Feiye.

It was just the matter of food that made him feel somewhat uncomfortable.

This time I went out to escape and saw too much filth.

I felt more and more grateful to Xiao Feiye, and gradually understood that Xiao Feiye didn't owe them anything from the beginning.

On the contrary, they actually owed Xiao Feiye a lot.

Xiao Ji greeted Xiao Feiye politely: "Feiye, don't stand outside the yard, go inside and sit for a while."

Xiao Feiye was surprised.

But he quickly reacted and refused: "It's too late and I won't enter the house. You must have a lot to do when you just come back. If you need help, let me know."

Old man Xiao was also tired, but he didn't try to persuade Xiao Feiye to stay.

But when Xiao Feiye turned around, he suddenly remembered another thing and warned: "The ancient well in the village has water, you don't need to boil snow water to cook."

Xiao Feiye returned home and told Shen Qianning about the return of Mr. Xiao and his family.
