Chapter 351 Are we really going to stay here?
He went to fresh water and caught a black fish weighing about three pounds, and stewed it directly in a pot. He also put some three-grain flour pancakes on the edge of the pot. Thinking of the child who had a high fever, he cooked some porridge on the stove next to him.
After finishing, she put the stewed fish and porridge into two old clay pots that she had collected from Chen's house. Every household has this kind of clay pot, and if someone finds it, it will be impossible to tell who it belongs to.
Then he put the rice into a net bag and got out of the space.
Seeing that there was no movement in the next room, he gently opened the door and left.
He tiptoed to the main house and heard that his parents were asleep. Then he opened the door and hurried towards the cowshed.
Because it was not far away, it only took a few minutes to get close. Seeing that there was still a faint light inside, he released his mental power out.
It doesn't matter at first glance, this family of four is really having a hard time.
Four people were squeezed on a kang, and there were only two quilts that were so torn that they couldn't be torn any more. The old lady with white hair held a five or six-year-old child in her arms with empty eyes: "Lao Kang, are we really going to stay here?"
The old man, called Lao Kang, stared at his grandson in his wife's arms and murmured, "Xiao Ze will be fine, and we won't stay here."
Although he said so, the expression on his face did not look much better. He probably said these words to comfort his wife.
After saying that, he stood up and poured a bowl of water from the casserole on the ground: "I'll give Xiaoze some more water. He has had a fever for so long, he can't get dehydrated."
The old lady said, "Old Kang, why don't you go and ask the village secretary to give us some food in the dark?"
She choked up a little when she said this, and after a while she continued, "Even if the two of them can't bear it and have to go first, I don't want them to starve to death."
After saying these words, the old lady was already sobbing.
The old man hurried forward and patted his wife on the shoulder, as if he had made up his mind: "Okay, I'll go."
When Chu Xue heard this, she hurried to the door, put two casseroles and a net bag at the door, then knocked on the door three times, turned around and ran to a hidden place.
She saw the old man who asked her for medicine during the day coming out. He looked around and saw something on the ground when he was about to close the door.
He didn't go forward to get it, but closed the door in fear.
His action startled the old lady who was coaxing her child on the kang: "Lao Kang, what's wrong?"
The old man stuttered when he was nervous: "Outside, outside, there is something outside."
The old lady looked puzzled and asked, "What is it?"
The old man did not answer, but opened the door again and took a look outside. After making sure that he was not seeing things, he closed the door again with a snap: "There is really something outside."
The old lady stretched her neck, as if she wanted to see what was happening outside through the crack in the leaky door, but unfortunately, it was pitch black outside and she couldn't see anything clearly: "Old man, see if there's anyone outside, if not, just bring the things in."
At this moment, she was eager for someone to help them, so when she saw that the old man didn't move, she urged him anxiously, "Hurry up."
The old man calmed himself down and then opened the door again. When he saw what was outside, surprise flashed in his eyes. After all, there were two casseroles here.
He quickly brought the casseroles back to the house one by one, and brought in the pancakes from the net bag: "Old lady, it's actually hot. It was made not long ago."
For some reason, the old man immediately thought of the little girl today.
