Chu Yunyao became more and more puzzled: "But I ate with my brother, and nothing happened."
The villagers were startled when they heard the words: "I'd rather believe it or not, what should I do if something happens to my mouth if I eat it?"
Chu Yunyao: "..."
Chu Yunyao didn't know how to explain this matter, and she couldn't convince the villagers who had been frightened for a long time.
Chu Yunyao looked at the sweet potato vines that were about to wither, and it was a pity to think of so many sweet potatoes underground.
Regardless of the opposition of the villagers, she dug a basket and carried it back.
Tell Mo Jinyu about this, "The cost here is not good, there is only a small amount of rice a year, and most of the time I eat sorghum rice and buckwheat noodles.
Now it's autumn, and in a few months, it will be winter. Every household is short of food. Adults can be hungry, but what about the growing children in the village? "
Mo Jinyu boiled warm water, put Xiu'er in a wooden basin, and bathed the baby: "I asked the villagers, there were always poisonous snakes infesting there in the beginning, and they often bit and killed the villagers, and then they were set on fire by the villagers. that piece of land.
The poisonous snake was gone, and a large sweet potato vine grew.
At the beginning, some people picked sweet potato vines and sweet potatoes to eat, but after several people died, no one dared to eat these things anymore. "
Chu Yunyao immediately understood: "Maybe the snake venom is on the sweet potatoes and vines. The people in the village are so hungry that they don't have much awareness of hygiene, so they just wipe it off with their clothes and leaves and start eating.
Poisoning is also possible.
It's just such a large piece of sweet potato, it's a pity not to use it as a ration, it's a waste of money. "
Mo Jinyu picked up Xiu'er who had been washed and put him on the bed, "Tomorrow I will go with you to the mountain, dig some more and bring them back, make sweet potato pancakes and bake them into dried sweet potatoes for the villagers to eat.
As long as there is nothing wrong with eating, they will believe what we say. "
Chu Yunyao lowered her head and dressed Xiu'er: "It's a good idea. When the weather is good, dig some more and bury them in the cellar. When there is nothing to eat in winter, it's okay to sit in the hut and roast sweet potatoes to eat." Very good, at least not so hungry.
When it snows, I catch a few birds in the yard to cook soup, and I can live on. "
Mo Jinyu stared blankly at her delicate and graceful side face, and his mood seemed to be touched by something: "Aren't you going to take Xiu'er out of here? In two months, you should be able to walk out of this mountain."
Chu Yunyao turned her eyes to look at Mo Jinyu, the hostility between her eyebrows faded completely, leaving only gentleness and strong tenderness: "Xiu'er is still young, it is not very convenient for me to take him with you .
Even if I can walk out of this mountain in two months, who knows if there will be another mountain waiting for me?
Once the mountain road is covered with snow and ice, I will be alone with my child, and the consequences will be disastrous.
Or wait until next spring when the ice and snow melt, you and I can take Xiu'er out together. "
Mo Jinyu's emotions were surging: "But with my body, traveling long distances will only drag you down."
Chu Yunyao felt a slight astringency in her heart: "Brother, we fell from the mountain together. If it weren't for you, Xiu'er and I would have already died. The days are so long, we can't go out for two days a month. If we can't go out in a month or a year, we can go for two years.
As long as you don't give up, you will always return to Jincheng.
You will not drag me down, you have always been my spiritual support. "
Even if it is to heal your body, I will definitely persevere and return to Ling Yuan's side.
Chu Yunyao sighed silently, wondering how Ling Yuan was doing now.
Hope he's doing well...
