Here, the old couple Fumanshan were huddled on the kang, worrying about what they would do in the future. The couple from the third family were right in saying that with their financial situation, how could they afford to raise their granddaughter.
Fu Baoer opened her big watery eyes, and with a thought, the things in the Dongtian Mansion appeared out of thin air on the kang.
"Ouch!" Jiang Fengxia was startled by the sudden appearance of something, "Old man...quick...quickly look at what this is!"
Fu Manshan looked down and was also frightened, "Where...where are the food and meat coming from?"
On the kang were clearly placed a bag of flour, a bag of rice, a bag of millet, and a small basket of vegetables, including potatoes, green peppers, and radishes. Apart from these, the most eye-catching thing was the piece of pork belly and two small bowls of clear water on the side. There wasn't much, enough for the two elders to eat for half a month.
Meat, it has been a long time since they last had meat.
The old couple swallowed, looked at each other, and thought of last night's dream at the same time.
"Could it be that the gods have really appeared?"
Fu Baoer grinned and said, "You must be scared when I, the immortal, take action!"
Jiang Fengxia hugged her granddaughter, tears streaming down her face again. "That dream must have been true. Our Bao'er is truly the reincarnation of a god!"
"We originally thought that we saved Bao'er, but who would have thought that we actually got the better of him!" Fu Manshan was very excited. Although it is not popular to talk about these feudal superstitions nowadays, the older generation believes in cause and effect the most.
Coupled with the dream they had together last night, he was even more convinced that his granddaughter was a lucky star.
"Old lady, this water definitely didn't appear out of nowhere. Maybe it's magic water. Let's drink it!"
Jiang Fengxia agreed perfectly. She picked up a bowl and drank it all in one gulp. Fu Manshan followed suit and drank a bowl as well.
The water was cold, but they didn't feel cold at all. In this cold winter, they just felt comfortable all over, as if they had taken some powerful pills and were full of energy.
"Oh, my waist doesn't hurt anymore, and my legs aren't sore anymore."
Jiang Fengxia lifted up the old man's clothes and said, "Oh my God, your waist is fine!"
The old couple hugged each other and cried bitterly. After a while, they knelt on the kang, kowtowed to God, and kept expressing their gratitude.
Fu Baoer was sandwiched between them, feeling their emotions and feeling sad. She had been practicing Taoism for thousands of years and had no idea what family affection was. Now she was just a baby, but she was actually moved by the love of her grandparents.
"Old woman, please hide these things quickly and don't let anyone find them, otherwise we will be in big trouble." Fu Manshan picked up the food and hid it in the cabinet at the head of the kang.
"It's time to renovate our house. It was okay before, but now it can't let my baby get cold."
Fu Manshan nodded. He had the same idea. "It's sunny this afternoon. I'll go to the back mountain and chop some wood."
With the food, Jiang Fengxia cooked a pot of thick millet porridge, cut some pickles, and had a comfortable breakfast with Fu Manshan.
After dinner, Fumanshan went to the back mountain and chopped some firewood, but he couldn't find suitable wood to seal the windows. He wanted to walk further in, but he found something moving not far away.
Could it be some wild animal?
Fumanshan walked in quietly and found that under the big rock, there was a fat rabbit.
This is really a pleasant surprise.
Fumanshan picked up the rabbit's ear and stuffed it under the backpack, then covered it with firewood and grass, hiding it tightly. He walked forward a few steps and found another pheasant in a corner!
I’m so lucky today, it must be the gods appearing again.
Fu Manshan knew when to stop, hid the pheasant, and walked down the mountain humming a little tune. When he passed by the secretary's house, he had an idea, turned around, and knocked on the door of Chen Zhifang's house again.
Seeing him acting mysteriously, Chen Zhifang said, "Brother, what's wrong? Did you go to the mountains to chop wood? It's freezing cold out here, be careful not to get hurt."
Fu Manshan dragged Chen Zhifang into the house and closed the door. "Brother Chen, I came across some good stuff when I went up the mountain today. I brought it to you to nourish Youpeng's wife."
The people sitting in the room were shocked by the pheasants and rabbits that Fumanshan brought out. There were such fat wild game in the Daqing Mountains!
"Brother Manshan! This is not a joke, these are all public property!" Although Chen Zhifang turned a blind eye to the villagers going into the mountains to hunt, it did not mean that he would break the law knowingly.
Chen Zhifang's wife Feng Guiying was originally tempted, but after hearing what her husband said, she opened her mouth but still said nothing.
"Dad..." Chen Youpeng hesitated again and again, but in the end, his concern for his wife prevailed. "Everyone in our village goes out to hunt for game. My uncle Manshan has hidden it well, so no one will know."
Feng Guiying also came over and said, "Yes, Dad, if Xiaofang doesn't eat something good, our granddaughter will starve to death. Besides, she has milk now, so we can share it with Baoer. She's so pitiful, she's even thinner than our eldest daughter."
Chen Zhifang gritted his teeth and refused. Principles cannot be broken, otherwise how can he be the brigade secretary in Qingshan Village.
Fu Manshan was not surprised. Without further persuasion, he collected the pheasant and rabbit and hid them. "Then I'll take them back and stew them, and send them over to our family for a snack in the evening. You guys have to accept them!"
After saying this, without waiting for the Chen family to reply, Fu Manshan ran out quickly.
The Chen family members looked at each other and felt a little touched. With so much meat, even if they exchanged it for some goat milk, they could feed the children, but Fu Manshan took it all for his own consumption.
"Xiaofang, when you have milk in the future, don't forget Baoer." Feng Guiying instructed her daughter-in-law.
Song Fang nodded. She also felt sorry for Bao'er. She was not loved by her father and mother. She was so pitiful.
Fu Manshan returned home and showed the game to his wife, who was so happy that Jiang Fengxia clapped her hands in approval.
Fu Baoer looked at the fat rabbits and pheasants, her saliva watering with greed. She was only three months old. When would she be able to eat the delicious meat?
At noon, the old couple fried shredded pork with chili peppers and steamed rice.
Not to mention something as precious as rice, they haven't even eaten whole grain dumplings for a long time.
"After drinking wild vegetable soup for several months, I'm a little uncomfortable eating rice and stir-fried vegetables."
Jiang Fengxia took two mouthfuls of rice, and the delicious taste made her want to cry. "Hurry up and eat more. Only when you are full will you have the strength to work. Our Bao'er is still waiting for milk!"
Fubaoer was a little reluctant to drink other people's milk, but she tried drinking a few sips of river water when no one was around. She could only say that it made her feel comfortable, but she didn't feel full.
It seems that I really have to rely on drinking milk.
Fu Manshan was reluctant to eat the meat and gave it all to his wife, saying, "You eat it. I don't like meat."
Jiang Fengxia knew what her husband was thinking, so she forced a few pieces of meat into his mouth and said, "If you don't eat it, I won't eat it either!"
Fu Baoer felt helpless seeing the two elders giving things away. She didn't dare to take out too many things at once for fear that they would be difficult to hide. But she also didn't want her grandparents to live so frugally!
Bang!
The two people who were pushing and shoving were startled by a large fan of ribs that suddenly appeared on the ground.
This... is this the immortal sending something again?
