"Wheeh..." The little horse let Chen Mengyao touch it however she wanted, and even seemed to enjoy it.
Chen Mengyao squatted down, staring at the little horse's lower body, and said to herself: "How can I tell if it's a male or a female?"
Chen Mengyao looked at it for a long time, but still didn't understand. She stood up and said, "Never mind, let's transport the food to the family compound first."
The main system sent a horse to Chen Mengyao, but felt that it was missing a set of horse harness clips, so it sent her a set without waiting for her to ask.
Chen Mengyao didn't expect that the main system was so humane and even knew what she needed.
Main system: “…”
I'm not being humane, I'm just afraid that you'll go crazy.
Don’t you know it’s terrible when you have a tantrum?
Chen Mengyao fixed the horse's harness under the guidance of Xiao Hei. She sat on the cart and patted the horse gently: "Let's go——"
The horse is very smart.
The walking is also very stable.
Sentinel Zhao Yizhi was surprised to see Chen Mengyao carrying a large cart: "Chen Yizhi, what's on the cart?"
Chen Mengyao casually said, "I need to borrow some food from someone else. Please help me keep an eye on it while I go inside to find Sister Li."
Zhao Qizhi nodded: "Don't worry, I'll watch over you here."
Chen Mengyao returned home as quickly as possible, wrapped the clothes prepared for Xiao Ye in a raincoat, and hurried outside.
Shen Zhou was stunned as he watched her walk away: "..."
Are you so busy?
Chen Mengyao came next door: “Sister-in-law Li, Sister-in-law Li, the nearby village was flooded.
I got some food and wanted to send it over.
When the food is too scarce, I don’t have enough strength. Can you go with me?
This is done, Li Cuihua thought it was no problem: "No problem, what should I prepare?"
After Li Cuihua finished speaking, she went back to the house, found her raincoat and put it on.
As for the bamboo hat, just put it outside and put it on.
Chen Mengyao replied: "Just follow me, no need to prepare anything."
Come to the gate.
Li Cuihua was stunned when she saw the food on the cart. It took her a long time to find her voice again: "Is this what you said, some food?"
There are eleven bags.
One bag weighs one kilogram.
There was a thousand kilograms of grain, and a bag of noodles, which was also won by Chen Mengyao in a lottery.
"Well, one thousand kilograms of grain and ten kilograms of noodles."
Li Cuihua took a deep breath and was speechless: "Are you going to give all these things to the villagers?"
Although this number may seem large, with so many people in a village, each family wouldn't get much. "Well, I heard from Aye that many villagers' food supplies were washed away by the flood."
Li Cuihua had also heard Xiao Xiaobo say this: "Where did you get all this food?"
Thinking of something, Li Cuihua's face changed. She pulled Chen Mengyao aside and asked in a low voice, "Did you go to the black market?"
Chen Mengyao knew that Li Cuihua was worried about her, and she felt warm in her heart. She smiled and said, "No, I borrowed it from someone. I helped her before."
Li Cuihua asked again: "Where did those noodles come from?"
You need a ticket to buy these.
Can't borrow it.
Chen Mengyao quietly told Li Cuihua: "I have a channel, but it's not the black market."
Li Cuihua didn't ask any further questions. "It's wrong not to go to the black market. We are military wives. If we get caught, it will also affect these soldiers."
Chen Mengyao knew this: "Well, don't worry, I won't do such a thing, let's go."
After asking these questions, Li Cuihua was curious about the horse again: "How did this horse come from? Did you borrow it from someone?"
Chen Mengyao wanted to say she found it, but she was afraid that Zhao Xiaozhi next to her would say that if she found something, she had to hand it over to the police. After she thought about it for a while, she said, "I bought it."
Li Cuihua was stunned: "Buy a horse? Why would you buy a horse?"
Chen Mengyao made up a random excuse: "It's convenient to transport things."
Li Cuihua chuckled: "I didn't know, I thought you had to transport so many things every day!
OK, I won’t ask you any more questions, let’s go.”
The horse is quite fast.
After walking for half an hour, we arrived at the flooded village.
The whole village turned into a vast ocean. There was no road in sight, only endless water.
Many houses were washed away.
The houses on higher ground were also flooded.
The villagers wore straw raincoats and walked with difficulty. The water above their knees was like a deep chasm, separating the villagers from their normal lives.
At a glance, except for the part of the house that was exposed in the water, the rest was all water. The fields that should have been full of life were also submerged and lifeless.
This is the first time there has been such a flood.
The villagers couldn't accept this reality and cried out to the sky.
Chen Mengyao did not go over immediately, but asked Li Cuihua to find the village chief.
Li Cuihua asked several people before she found the village chief: "Chief, I am a soldier's wife. Another soldier's wife and I brought some food here.
Those rations belonged to another soldier's wife, and I accompanied her here.
Come with me and take a look."
Li Cuihua is a very down-to-earth person. She doesn't like to lie or brag. She means what she is.
The village chief didn't expect such a good thing to happen. He wiped away his tears and choked up, saying, "Thank you, thank you so much.
It has rained like this before, but never like today, it has not stopped."
The village chief thought there were only 50 kilograms of grain. When he saw the grain on the cart, he was shocked and speechless. After a long time, he uttered a hoarse voice: "This, this much grain, I, I dare not take it."
Chen Mengyao got off the cart and said, "Take it. Once we get through this difficult time, things will get better."
Speaking of this, the village chief who had been in office for decades wanted to cry again. Before the flood came, he was afraid that this kind of thing would happen, so he specifically called the radio to ask people to move the food from their homes.
But their village had never experienced a flood, and many people did not believe it, which led to many villagers' food being washed away by the flood.
"Can it be cured?"
Chen Mengyao nodded and gave the village chief strength: "Don't worry, you have to believe in the country.
When something like this happens, the country will not sit idly by.”
The village chief didn't dare to hold out too much hope, but he didn't refute what Chen Mengyao said. He responded smoothly: "Yeah."
Chen Mengyao knew he didn't believe it, so she didn't dwell on it: "I have a thousand kilograms of grain and ten kilograms of noodles.
You take it and divide it among yourselves.”
The village chief was shocked by the number: "One... one thousand kilograms?"
There are about ten thousand households in their village.
By this calculation, each household can receive ten kilograms of grain and one kilogram of flour.
"Thank you, thank you—" The village chief, on behalf of the villagers, was about to kneel, but Chen Mengyao stopped him: "Don't kneel, you go and distribute, I'll look around."
The village chief forced a smile and said, "Look, whatever you want to look at."
After saying this, the village chief went to find the villagers and asked them to move the grain back.
Chen Mengyao asked someone to help her look after the horses. She and Li Cuihua took a walk around the village and saw Xiao Ye and the others were busy.
Xiao Ye was surprised to see Chen Mengyao appear here: "Why are you here?"
Chen Mengyao didn't expect to meet Xiao Ye here. She heard that several nearby villages were flooded. She was thinking that if she couldn't find him here, she would go to the next village.
"Send some food to the villagers. Is the situation okay? Has anyone drowned?"
Xiao Ye nodded: "Yes, two drowned, and one body was not fished out."
