Shen Qinghe's face was dark, and there was a hint of anger in his voice: "The cellar is under pressure, and I won't be able to move the beams for a while. I guess I will only have sweet potatoes to eat tonight."

After saying that, he sneered: "I don't know if that little thief still has some conscience and left us a bag of sweet potatoes."

Aunt Qin's eyes were already red, and she cursed in a low voice: "This person is really a son of a bitch. He still does such immoral things at a time like this. He is not afraid of choking to death when he fights Yue Po for food."

Mrs. Zhou also glanced at her sleeping sister-in-law, and felt a little uncomfortable for a moment. A woman must not be careless during the confinement period. If she cannot sit properly, she is suffering from a disease. When she was in the confinement period, her mother-in-law

They were all eating white flour and new rice. Who would have thought that his sister would suffer the consequences.

Not to mention that I was frightened last night, but now even the better food has been stolen by unscrupulous thieves.

In the end, there was nothing he could do. Shen Qinghe felt sorry for his wife, so he ran around trying to borrow some from other people who had good food at home, but in the end, he couldn't borrow it even after searching all over the place.

After all, anyone who shows a little bit of wealth at this time will be easily targeted.

Seeing Shen Qinghe slouching back, Aunt Qin understood and asked him to go home and get some more salt and sesame oil. Without fine grains, adding some sesame oil and salt to the sweet potatoes would be more flavorful than boiling them.

However, Mrs. Zhou suddenly remembered something, told Aunt Qin and hurried to Nazhi.

Seeing Nanzhi talking to the dog, he said a little embarrassedly: "Sister Nanzhi, I have something to ask you."

Nanzhi looked at Mrs. Zhou who was a little awkward and was stunned. She didn't understand why Mr. Zhou would come to her, but she nodded and agreed: "Sister Zhou, please tell me if you have anything to do."

"I, my sister-in-law is in confinement now, but the fine food at home is gone. I want to ask you to borrow some."

Zhou was a little nervous when she spoke. Although Nanzhi had been married to her for five years, the two of them had not had much friendship on weekdays. She suddenly came to borrow food like this, and she still wanted to borrow small grains. It looked like she was bullying an orphan and a widowed mother.

After waiting for a while and not hearing a reply from Nanzhi, Zhou felt a little disappointed. Just as she was about to say thank you and go back, she heard Nanzhi speak.

"I only have Chen rice at home, but I have some other things if I want to give it to Yue Po."

After hearing this, Mrs. Zhou's eyes widened in surprise. She thought Nanzhi would not agree, but she was told that there were other things suitable for her siblings.

"Please wait for a while. I didn't bring anything with me. I'll go home and get it for you."

Mrs. Zhou nodded quickly and agreed to wait here for a while.

Nanzhi said a few words to the dog before returning home with the clothes he had changed.

Scallops are cooked into porridge to nourish women in confinement. Although it is not as good as scallop scallops, it still has many benefits as long as you don't eat too much.

Thinking about this, Nanzhi packed a handful of scallops and a bowl of old rice. Before leaving, he hesitated for a while and finally caught two wild crucian carps from the barrel that the Tengu had brought back a few days ago.

When crucian carp soup is used to make milk, Aunt Qin's family has always helped her, so this little thing is nothing.

Before going out, Nanzhi didn't forget to lock the door carefully. After all, it's not afraid of ten thousand, just afraid of the worst. How could Zhao Si and the others think about being exterminated? Wouldn't it be easier for him, an orphan and a widowed mother, to be bullied?

Mrs. Zhou paced back and forth, feeling a little uneasy. After all, her mother-in-law had asked her by name not to borrow food from Ms. Lin. If she went back with the things, she didn't know if her mother-in-law would scold her.

"Auntie is back."

The dog was dazzled by Zhou's walking back and forth. When he saw his mother's figure in the distance, he waved happily.

Nanzhi felt a little funny when he saw the dog waving under the tree, and was worried that he was hurting his hand, so he could only speed up the pace.

"Sister Zhou, you also know the situation in my family. This old rice should be enough for two days. These clams have been dry-cleaned and mixed with the old rice to make porridge. They are also nourishing. But you can't eat too much, so I won't.

Load up."

Mrs. Zhou only felt grateful after taking the bag of grain. There were so many "relatives" in Lihua Village, but none of them were willing to help. In the end, she had to rely on borrowing grain from orphans and widowed mothers.

"Sister, thank you very much."

"Sister Zhou, there are two crucian carp here. I thought that the cows turned over so loudly last night that I'm afraid little sister Zhou didn't get a good rest all night. There is a folk remedy in my family's home, which says that drinking crucian carp soup can help you produce milk.

, you take it back and clean it up, then make some soup for Sister Zhou to drink."

Mrs. Zhou was stunned for a moment, and her eyes turned red for a moment as she looked at the two crucian carp handed over by Nanzhi.

Seeing Zhou's lack of response, Nanzhi thought it was because she didn't know how to deal with fish bones, and added: "This fish has bones, you can wrap the fish in a clean cotton cloth, so that you can drink the soup directly.

"

"Hey, hey, it's true. I have to thank you very much." Mrs. Zhou didn't know how she felt. She just felt that she was shaking a little when she spoke. She carefully wrote down what Nanzhi said and said thank you several times.

I just left with these things.

When Gou'er saw Mr. Zhou leaving, he tugged on Nanzhi's sleeves and said in a coquettish tone: "Mom, I was so darling just now. After a while, Gou'er missed Grandma."

The little baby acted coquettishly with a soft voice. Nanzhi laughed when she heard it. She hugged the dog and kissed his little face before saying: "The dog is so good. When you get home tomorrow, I will make fish soup for you."

.”

The dog giggled and said yes.

The two girls started teasing each other again.

Aunt Qin was originally worried. Little Zhou was shocked when the cow turned over last night. Today's milk was not enough, and now there is no refined food. She didn't know whether her little grandson would be able to eat today.

As a result, I saw Mrs. Zhou coming back with a bag in one hand and two crucian carps four fingers wide in the other.

"What are you..."

Mrs. Zhou just handed the grain bag in her hand to her mother-in-law, "Mom, here is some old rice. You can take it and cook it for your sister."

Aunt Qin was a little surprised when she took the grain bag. She borrowed grain everywhere in Qinghe but got nothing. Why did Zhou get back the old rice after going there for a while?

After opening the bag and seeing the scallops inside, Aunt Qin suddenly realized that only the girl from Nanzhi was handling this stuff. Looking at Mrs. Zhou standing aside with her head lowered, waiting to be scolded by her, Aunt Qin sighed.

Although Ms. Zhou didn't listen to her and went to Miss Lin to borrow food, it was only for the little Ms. Zhou who was in confinement. It would have seemed like she was being harsh if she still scolded her.

"Thank you for your hard work. Go and have a rest."

Mrs. Zhou was originally waiting to be scolded, but she was relieved when she heard that her mother-in-law didn't care about anything. She raised the two crucian carp in her hand and said, "Sister Nanzhi said that these crucian carp can produce milk after being boiled in soup. I gave it to you."

I said twice that if you wrap it in a clean cotton cloth and stew it, there will be no thorns."

After hearing this, Aunt Qin was also a little surprised. She had eaten the fish in the river before. The meat had few thorns and many thorns, and it was a bit fishy. She didn't know that it could still produce milk.

If it is really useful, my daughter-in-law will also suffer less.

After nodding, Zhou and he started working.

When the fish soup was simmered and the milky white soup smelled fragrant, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law tasted it before smashing their mouths. This fish soup is so fresh, how come they didn't know it before.

"It's weird, this fish soup is so fresh, why hasn't Sister Nanzhi stewed it for dogs before? Otherwise, why would the dogs be so small?"

Mrs. Zhou recalled the delicious taste of the fish soup and asked doubtfully.

Although Aunt Qin felt strange after hearing this, she didn't say much and just asked Mrs. Zhou to quickly take the casserole and leave.

Although most families only brought sweet potatoes and chestnuts from home as rations, some families would also use this temporary stove to cook some soup.
