Chapter 114 How is it possible to waste food!
Shuyue was stunned, she looked so powerful!
Bai Lie finished chewing the dried sweet potatoes in his hand and grabbed another handful. He gave some to each of the two little kids and asked them to eat them together. They talked while eating.
“I’m telling you this not to make you afraid of him. Your Uncle Bai’s heart is actually not bad, but he was forced out of it!”
The old lady first favored her eldest daughter, and then her youngest son.
So much so that Uncle Bai has been ignored, and he still wants to be an old scalper at home!
If he didn't have some foresight, he would have been unable to survive long ago!
Shuyue nodded, understanding.
I just didn’t expect that Uncle Bai, who was so honest and easy to bully, was just pretending to be protective. I felt like I was getting better, really! -
Grandpa Fourth said earlier that Zhou Guilan and his family did not eat fine grains, so he asked Shuyue to give Shuyue's rations and the fine grains from Bailie's rations, and let Bailie distribute the remaining grains himself.
Bai Lie's reputation for filial piety was widely spread throughout the village. At that time, the fourth grandfather was probably not sure what Bai Lie was thinking and whether he would leave any food for Zhou Guilan, the old man.
But out of consideration for Shu Yue, he directly brought the fine grain to Shu Yue first, and then asked Bai Lie to distribute the rest himself.
but-
Bai Lie never wanted to leave a grain of food in the Bai family. He would never forget the scene when his daughter pitifully asked him to eat the few sweet potatoes she had saved.
His daughter is still obsessed with drying vegetables and mushrooms. No matter how long she worked, the wild vegetables she dug and the mushrooms she dried might not be worth the weight of two sweet potatoes.
How could you waste food by yourself?
Hence, Bai Lie got Shuyue's two hundred kilograms of grain rations and his own grain of more than three hundred kilograms back.
Now that I think about it, when Old Man Bai asked him to move the grain, he didn't refuse at all. When he brought all the rations back, Bai Lie wanted to laugh a little at the shocked expression on Old Man Bai's face.
I really don’t want to have the reputation of being unfilial.
but-
Building reputation is just a matter of lip service. Food is such a precious thing, how could he stuff it with it?
Bai Lie discussed with Shu Yue and Xiao Zai Zi.
“It’s October now, and the three of us eat ninety kilograms of food a month.
These 500 kilograms of grain, plus the 100 kilograms of fine grains stored there, about 150 kilograms of sweet potatoes, chestnuts, wild vegetables and mushrooms, etc., will not be a big problem until the summer harvest in May or June.
You still have to make some calculations and be tight. Dad wants to buy some more food for the house, so we don’t have to be so fussy about eating..."
Bai Lie looked at the little boy and understood what he meant in an instant.
“We can eat whatever you have there as a dish or as a snack.
If you encounter a disaster, those are even more life-saving things.
But now that you've gone down the mountain, you have to change your thinking. Now that we have real food to eat, we can't eat it like rabbits and squirrels, right? "
There was no reason to live alone, so he even asked Shuyue to eat dried vegetables and wild vegetables until they were mushy.
Shu Yue: “…”
She thinks rabbits and squirrels are actually pretty good, really!
The mountain is so big, and there are so many things in it, and it doesn’t cost money, how great!
At this time, Bai Hengyu nodded as if he agreed with Bai Lie's words.
Bai Hengyu really agrees.
Who is chewing grass when there is food to eat?
In the past, he had no choice but to hoard those worthless things!
