What time is it now? It's not ten or twenty years from now; one wrong step and you'll be doomed.
After observing for so long, she finally understood that none of the people in her family were sober.
If he himself is not clear-headed, the first one to be sacrificed will be this girl.
Thinking of this, Xie Chunhua put down the kitchen knife in her hand, walked to the rice jar, opened the lid, and took a good look at what was inside.
The grain rations have just been distributed, and there are still dozens of kilograms of refined grains left. There are also several hundred kilograms of coarse grains hidden inside the house, enough to feed the family until next year.
