Just as he was about to pour out half of the porridge in his bowl to share with his family, he was quickly stopped by Wu Yuehua and Shen Fugui.
"Ali, you are still sick, you eat, you eat."
Shen Fugui took the lead in comforting his daughter.
"Yes, sister, you eat it. The steamed buns are enough for us."
“…”
Finally, after much persuasion, Chen Xinli only gave a small sip to her younger brother Shen Jinlin, and drank the bowl of love porridge that belonged to her alone in silence.
The brown rice that my second aunt sent was for my younger sister to nourish her body.
Parents have already warned them.
Shen Jinlin thought he was already a little man and would not steal his sister's food.
But looking at the porridge his sister gave him, he immediately smiled at Chen Xinli:
"Sister is so nice, I hope you get better soon."
Looking at her brother's dark little face and the satisfied expressions of her family, Chen Xinli felt mixed emotions.
They are really poor. They lack food, clothes, and money...
But the only thing they didn't lack was love, especially a heart that loved her.
She had been searching for the latter for more than twenty years, but never got it and had paid a heavy price for it.
Living a new life, since God is blessing her, she naturally has to live a good life and take good care of her family who loves her.
A glimmer of hope ignited in Chen Xinli's heart.
Observe your surroundings silently.
All I saw was an endless stretch of mountains to the east, with a river winding through the foot of the mountains. But there was no water in the river at all, and the dry riverbed was cracked with many holes.
The exposed vegetation halfway up the mountain is like wrinkles on an old man's face after experiencing wind and frost, small patches here and large patches there.
What is a little strange is that there are actually some white balls on the top of the mountain, which look like snow from a distance.
But it couldn't cover up the hot and dry atmosphere in the air.
Chen Xinli couldn't help but take a few more glances: the landform here is quite unique.
I want to take out the eggs in the space, but I can’t directly expose the secret of the space for the time being.
Forget it, let’s go up the mountain. The mountains can cover up all secrets!
"Ali, Dad is busy now, you should rest well at home!"
Before Chen Xinli could react, Shen Fugui limped towards the village entrance.
The man's back was shaking, but he was full of energy, as if he was going to do something big.
Looking at Shen Fugui's legs, Shen Xinli wondered in her heart whether her father's legs could be cured.
"Mother, sister, brother, you stay home. I'm going to water the wheat field!"
Shen Jinshan was carrying two half buckets of water and preparing to go out.
The North has been plagued by natural disasters since the year before last.
First there was a continuous drought, and then there were several hailstorms last winter, which destroyed a lot of crops.
It hasn't rained since the beginning of spring this year. Although the fields are planted with cold-resistant and drought-resistant winter wheat, they have not been watered since March.
It is almost May now and the wheat is about to fill with grain, but there is still no water.
Shen Jinshan was worried every day. In previous years, after paying taxes, his family could still sell a little grain to buy medicine for his father, but this year...
