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

On days when food is available, no one would even take a look at three kilograms of miscellaneous grains.

But now it's different.

This is life-saving food.

Lady Shi knew very well that Shen Qianning did this to help her.

I don’t know how to express my gratitude.

Shen Qianning said: "Don't get excited yet. My family doesn't have much food, so we can't invite too many people. Please don't spread it everywhere."

Lady Shi came to the door on her own initiative, and coupled with Lady Shi's performance just now, Shen Qianning felt that she could help.

Other people neither came to visit nor apologized, and she was not happy either.

Since Lady Shi was invited, she felt it necessary to go to Uncle Xiao's house to ask.

Let Xiao Dongchen take his brother to close the door.

She went out with Lady Shi, Lady Shi returned home, and she went to Uncle Xiao's house.

Uncle Xiao thought something had happened to Shen Qianning.

Shen Qianning explained his purpose very politely and said: "I still need a worker there. If you are willing, one of you can come and help with the work. Three kilograms of grains a day."

Qiu Shui's eyes lit up and he quickly said, "I do."

She is the youngest in the family, and it is getting hotter day by day.

She also didn't want the two elderly people in her family to suffer this hardship.

Three kilograms of miscellaneous grains a day is enough to feed the whole family for two days.

This job is totally doable.

Shen Qianning got the answer and returned home.

He directly called Xiao Dongchen and the others over and said, "From today on, my mother will teach you how to write."

Xiao Dongchen looked confused: "Mom, aren't you illiterate?"

The lie was exposed, but Shen Qianning said extremely calmly: "I was illiterate before, but later I learned a little. I can still learn a few simple words. Do you want to learn it or not?"

Xiao Dongchen quickly said: "Learn, learn, learn!"

Xiao Nanchuan also immediately said: "Mom, I want to learn to write."

Xiao Xiyue acts like a spoiled child and usually wants Shen Qianning to hug him.

Shen Qianning hugged Xiao Xiyue lovingly and said seriously: "You just need to know that I teach you how to read. Not many of you know how to read. If word gets out, people in the village may laugh at me. You don't want me either." Be laughed at!"

The three children nodded vigorously.

Xiao Dongchen said: "I don't want my mother to be laughed at."

Shen Qianning smiled and rubbed Xiao Dongchen's little head: "You still have to learn the boxing skills your father taught you before. Now that you are the male members of the family, my mother still expects you to protect her when you grow up!"

Shen Qianning was used to sleeping with Xiao Feiye in his arms, so Shen Qianning suffered from insomnia for two nights in a row.

The next day, I woke up with panda eyes and started cooking for my three children.

I made egg custard and prepared some side dishes for the three children.

Looking at such a rich breakfast, the three children kept swallowing.

Shen Qianning didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Looking at how you have never seen the world, you will have such a sumptuous breakfast in the future. Come sit down and eat. After eating, we will go up the mountain to pick wild vegetables, and we will buy eggs for you in exchange for money."

When they heard there were eggs to eat, the three children worked extra hard.

Lady Shi and Qiu Shui came together.

Shen Qianning thought of the weeds growing extremely well in the pumpkin patch and said, "As long as you two don't be lazy, go and pull the weeds in the pumpkin patch!"

Pumpkin seedlings need to be weeded before they are planted.

Once the vines are a little bigger and the vines are stretched, there is no need to weed.

And the fertilizer behind the house.

Then he said: "I'm still fertilizing the fields later. You can choose a time to help me spread the fertilizer on the yellowing seedlings."

Qiu Shui and Shi Niangzi are very enthusiastic.

Qiu Shui said: "Don't worry, we will definitely handle things beautifully for you."

After Shen Qianning finished explaining, he locked the door and took the children up the mountain to look for wild vegetables.

The villagers saw that Lady Shi and Qiu Shui were obviously helping Shen Qianning's family.

Everyone is a little curious.

As a result, the people who asked the two people did not get the answers they wanted.

Because Shi Niangzi and Qiu Shui didn't know anything about it.

I hesitated for a long time and couldn't come up with a reason.

This made the people who inquired about the information angry.

When the three children thought about eating egg custard, they worked particularly hard to find wild vegetables.

When the sun was relatively bright at noon, Shen Qianning came back with the children.

And the fertilizer in the composting pond behind the house is gone.

Just then Qiu Shui and Lady Shi came back carrying baskets.

When Qiu Shui saw Shen Qianning, he said, "We have sprinkled all the fertilizers into the seedling fields. You can go and see the specially selected yellow fields later."

Shen Qianning smiled and said: "No need to read, I believe you."

Then he entered the house and directly weighed two bags of grains weighing one and a half kilograms and handed them to the two of them.

"This is your morning's wages. Take it!"

The two of them thought they would be able to get food after working for a whole day.

But they didn't expect that Shen Qianning would give them food in just half a day.

Shen Qianning saw the doubts of the two people.

Explained: "Today is your first day of work. I have to give you a reassurance that I am not fooling you. I will give it to you in the afternoon starting tomorrow."

Both of them had no objection and happily returned home carrying the rice.

Shen Qianning started cooking for the children.

I still put a piece of compressed biscuit in the grains, boiled it until it became a paste, and prepared two cold wild vegetables, and then I invited the children to eat.

There was another knock on the door.

Qinglin's voice came from outside the door.

"Shen Qianning."

Shen Qianning opened the door and saw Qing Lin standing at the door with several women.

Qinglin said embarrassedly: "I came to you to discuss something with you. I was afraid that people outside would make irresponsible remarks, so I asked the women in the village to accompany me."

These women were all women who had come to do needlework with Shen Qianning before.

Shen Qianning invited a few people into the courtyard. This time she did not close the courtyard door, but opened it wide.

I am also afraid that people outside will make irresponsible remarks.

The three children were very sensible and brought stools from the house for everyone to sit down.

Qinglin sighed and said: "I have persuaded Feiye before. He didn't trust you and the child. He was afraid that you would be implicated, so he came back forcibly. When he left, he asked me to take care of you mother and son. If there is anything I need help with in the future. Just come to Qingtian Village to find us, and we will definitely try our best to help you."

Everyone still remembers the previous kindness.

Shen Qianning was moved.

These days, not many people know how to be grateful.

Several women who followed also expressed their opinions one by one.

Shen Qianning was curious about the current situation in Qingtian Village and asked, "How much labor force is left in Qingtian Village?"

Qinglin let out a long sigh when he mentioned this matter.

He said helplessly: "I and two other teenagers are left in our village. The rest are old people and children. Those who are over [-] years old have been taken away. These two teenagers still escaped because they went up the mountain to cut firewood. A calamity."

There is no one like Liu Chunxiang in Qingtian Village.

Everyone knows how to cover for each other.

So the three people really survived.
