The government just asked questions and that was it.
When they ask questions, they focus more on observing the changes in the person's expression. If there is anything wrong, they will treat the person as a suspect.
As a result, the Niu family stone opera was performed quite well and successfully got away with it.
After surviving another crisis, Niu Jiashi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
By the way, in recent months, several women in the village have given birth to children, including the couple from the Lu family. Niu Jiashi seriously suspects that those children should be his.
Just thinking about it, he couldn't help laughing.
He is finally not extinct!
Lu family.
Mother Lu was holding the baby who was just a few months old, with her brows tightly furrowed. Two children were born in the family at once, especially during such a drought. It was really terrible!
You don't need to think about how hard life will be in the future...
In addition, she always felt that the two newborn babies looked nothing like the eldest and the second child.
Father Lu was a little speechless and said, "It's only a few months old, what can you tell? It's simply nonsense."
Of course, Mother Lu had no suspicions; she simply felt they didn't resemble each other. She said, "That's true, but when Ping'er and Cheng'er were born, I felt they looked a lot like their father... But now, with these two little ones, I don't have that feeling anymore..."
Then he said, "It's strange to say, but recently, there have been several babies born in the village every month, and there are still many women with big bellies who haven't given birth yet... In the past, there weren't so many people getting pregnant and giving birth in a year."
Father Lu also found it strange and said, "Yes, there are indeed quite a lot of pregnancies and births this year."
Then he said, "However, these children are unlucky. I wonder how long this drought will last..."
If things go wrong, many children may not be able to stay...
In this regard, the village is also discussing...
In a flash, it’s August.
This weather is not only dry but also very hot.
The sun hangs high in the sky every day, making the ground hot!
They are in the south, so it is even hotter here.
The river next to Changhe Village has dried up and the water in the river has evaporated, leaving not a drop of water.
Now, the villagers rely on well water to survive.
Fortunately, the groundwater resources in their area are good. Even if the drought is so severe, there will still be water as long as the well is dug deep enough.
In this area, except Changhe Village, all other villages are very restless.
After all, they are not only facing a water crisis, but also a food crisis!
The drought has lasted for more than half a year. Because no one was prepared, many families have almost used up all the food they had stored at home.
Some people have already started to flee the famine.
Little do people know that this drought is nationwide and is the same no matter where it occurs.
However, many people don’t know this and think that the drought is only happening here, and maybe it will be better if they move to another place.
Then, with such expectations, they left their homeland and fled the famine...
Although the people in Changhe Village were also worried, at least they still had food.
After all, they had made preparations, and if they saved food, it would be enough for them to survive for two years.
Of course, you have to save a lot!
Otherwise, you won’t be able to endure it.
"I heard that people from many surrounding villages have fled the famine. Is it possible that the drought is only in our area, while other places, like other provinces, are doing just fine?"
"That's... hard to say. However, we have some food stored up, so it's best for us to stay in the village! If we run around, we might get caught by the government! It's said that a few days ago, someone who wanted to escape the famine was caught by patrolling officials and was arrested..."
"Yes, according to the laws of Daxu, if you run around without a permit and get caught, you'll go to jail..."
