Chapter 567: Jiakang's Speculation
Hearing Jiakang's words, Qiao Lian couldn't help but sigh, now that the rations are not enough to eat at this time, who doesn't want to try their luck in the mountains?
In autumn, I went into the mountains to pick up walnuts and pine nuts, and most of the nearby mountains were picked up.
Those are also the rations that wild animals need, and if there is no food on the periphery of the forest, there will be fewer animals naturally.
Not to mention winter, many people want to go into the mountains to hunt and get some meat to make up for it.
These animals are not stupid, they may be killed if they run to the periphery, and most of them hide in the depths of the forest and dare not come out.
So Jiakang and they went into the mountains a lot of times, but the harvest was much less than before.
"Alas, if you don't, you don't have it, now that you've been staring at the forest all these years, what else is left?
Anyway, our family's life is not good, and it is not bad, your father and I are busy and can always provide you with food and drink.
Let's get through it like this, there will always be a time to get through it, just wait to get through it. ”
No matter how big the difficulty is, it can be overcome, but the process is too tiring.
The Qu family is already very good, and the children have not yet reached the point of eating bran vegetables, and somewhere else, I really don't know what to say.
"Tomorrow is the New Year, this year is the twenty-ninth lunar New Year, and there are only a few days left, just pack up at home these days, don't go into the mountains.
This time, I brought back some food from Linjiang and bought New Year's goods.
We have all prepared everything for the New Year, and we will have a New Year this year. Qiao Lian sighed and didn't say much.
"Come, come and help me put everything together, let's freeze it if it should be frozen, and keep it for the New Year."
Qiao Lian remembered that she had brought a lot of things back, so she hurriedly commanded her sons to take out some food and freeze what should be frozen.
Qiaolian really brought back a lot of food this time, chicken, duck and fish, and there were more than ten catties of pork alone.
Not to mention the New Year's goods, there are a lot of things like melon seeds and candies.
The children hadn't seen so much food for a while, and they were all very happy and helped Qiaolian put them all away quickly.
"Mom, didn't you say that there is a shortage of materials now? Where did you get all this food? ”
Jiakang thought about a lot of things, and saw that his mother brought back too much food, and something was not quite right, so he asked.
"Don't make any noise, it's all from the black market.
It's not easy to get something to eat now, and I bought it with someone else after a lot of work. ”
Qiao Lian had already thought of a countermeasure, deliberately pretending to be very mysterious, and whispered.
The children had heard about the black market before, and they were all speculating in private, so it was okay to simply admit it.
Or else? Otherwise, how can I tell the children?
The baby is getting bigger and bigger, and the family is constantly eating and drinking, so there must be a better excuse.
Could it be true that your mother has a system for exchanging things? So the kids can't be frightened?
So taking this opportunity, Qiao Lian simply admitted that she didn't have to make too many excuses in the future.
When Jiakang heard it, it was almost as good as he guessed.
Let's just say, now that the supply of materials is so tight, others can't buy food and meat with tickets, but his mother can buy so much meat and chickens and ducks back.
It's not on the black market, where else can you get it?
"Mom, you have to be careful, now you can catch it strictly, beware of letting people find out.
It's the same with my dad, you have to pay attention to it in the future, if someone catches it, it's not a joke. ”
Jiakang's expression froze, and his eyes showed worry.
"Especially my father's identity, these things should be at least mixed up, otherwise people will sue him for buying and selling, and it will be bad."
Jiakang knows a lot and knows a lot about the doorway, so he can't help but be a little worried about Qu Weiyang.
"It's okay, as long as you go out and don't say anything, outsiders won't know, we'll just buy some food back, don't worry."
It's okay, the children in the family are not stupid, they know a lot.
Qiaolian has always believed that children should not only be flowers in the greenhouse, but should let them know the difficulties and dangers outside.
They will try their best to protect the children, but the children must also have the ability to be independent and independent, at least they can't be deceived when they go out, and they are not stupid.
"Of course, we won't say it, but don't make it too conspicuous.
Mom, I just want to know, you got so many things and walked back, no one would ask you on the way? ”
Jiakang wondered, how the hell did his mother do it?
There are so many things, and the weight is not light, how did you get it back?
Ahem, let's see, this is the disadvantage of children when they are older, it's not easy to fool.
"Didn't you see me put it on the bag? I've been tired of carrying it all the way.
No one asked on the road, and the black rumbling in the car couldn't see anything clearly, and no one talked to anyone.
After getting out of the car, I walked home, our house is secluded, and I didn't meet anyone on the road. ”
Qiao Lian coughed lightly twice, casually making excuses to fool the past.
"If you want to do anything in the future, you still call me, you carry so many things back alone, it's too tiring."
His mother must have been very tired carrying a large luggage roll and carrying so much food home.
Jiakang felt sorry for his mother, and simply said that he could help with such things in the future.
Hehe, let you help, then it's really exposed.
Qiao Lian muttered in her heart, she couldn't say anything else, so she could only nod her head and agree.
"Okay, if there is something in the future, let you help, Jiakang is older, and I know that I will share it for my mother." My son is really older, and he's not the same as before.
Qiao Lian looked at her son, who was taller than herself, and really felt that time had flown by.
Why did the cute and cute doll turn into a taller young man than her in a blink of an eye?
Hey, in a few years, it's time for her son to marry a daughter-in-law, and she will be upgraded to be a mother-in-law, so scary, is she already so old?
Qiao Lian hurriedly shook her head, no, she is not old, she is definitely not old, she is only in her early thirties.
In previous lives, many women were not married in their thirties, and she is definitely not old.
She just arrived at this time, she got married too early and had children too early, so she was less than forty years old, and it was possible to become a mother-in-law and a grandmother.
Woo-woo, it's a little hard to accept.
Jiakang saw his mother shaking her head vigorously, and with an inexplicable expression, she thought that Qiaolian was uncomfortable, so she hurriedly asked.
"Mom, what's wrong with you? Is it because of the discomfort in the head? Are you tired or have a cold? Sit down and rest. ”
Jiakang hurriedly helped Qiaolian sit down, and then hurried out.
Qu Weiyang was busy with other things just now, and he happened to enter the house at this time and had a meeting with his son.
Seeing his son's anxious appearance, he felt a little strange. "What's going on? What's wrong with Zhang Guang? What's the matter? ”
"My mom doesn't seem to be feeling well, so I'll pour her a cup of hot water." As he spoke, he went into the kitchen to pour water.
Qu Weiyang hurriedly entered the house, but saw Qiao Lian sitting on the edge of the kang and doing well.
"My son said you weren't feeling well? What's wrong? Let the wind blow and feel uncomfortable? ”
Qiao Lian's face was inexplicable, "No, I'm fine, I was chatting with Jiakang just now." ”
