"Borrow? It's easy for you to say, but who will pay it back?" Li Fuman asked.
"Let Li Aiju return it! She was the one who took the food anyway, so it's only right for her to return it." Li Aiju said as if it was a matter of course.
"You...what do you know? All you do is talk nonsense and spew shit here!" Li Fuman was almost mad at Li Ailan.
I don’t know why the Li family gave birth to such a brainless thing.
That little bastard is nowhere to be found. Who knows when he will come back to get the letter of introduction?
If the grain doesn't come for a year or two, they will have to wait a year or two to pay back the borrowed grain?
They are willing, but will the NPC leader Zhao Zhongxing be willing?
Even if Zhao Zhongxing was willing, Li Fuman couldn't bring himself to do it.
"Grandpa, don't be angry. Let's take the food issue one step at a time. Maybe there will be a turning point! As for now, let's save as much as we can!" said Li Jinfeng.
"Yes, the autumn harvest is over, and the remaining work is relatively easy. Picking cotton, peeling cotton, planting safflower seeds, planting rapeseed, digging ditches, burying manure and so on. There is no need to work day and night like during the autumn harvest. It's not a big deal if you eat a little less!" said Li Dahu.
"That's it for now! But the food standards for the two pregnant women at home cannot be lowered. No matter how hard it is, we can't let the children suffer!" Li Fuman said.
Everyone in the Li family agreed with Li Fuman's words.
Right now, Zhao Meixia and Zhang Xiu Lan are both in a special situation. They won't starve to death if they eat less.
But if the child is not getting enough nutrition, it will be a big problem.
In the brigade, there are several wives of team members who are suffering from malnutrition because they eat less during pregnancy.
The child died before he was full-term.
The babies that were born after ten months of hard work were gone just like that. Those families suffered a devastating blow and they didn't smile for several years.
After dinner, Li Jinfeng helped Huang Yu clean up the kitchen and wash the pots and dishes.
When they were alone in the kitchen, Li Jinfeng whispered to Huang Yu, "Sister-in-law, I have some fine grains. From now on, you can use a clay pot to make porridge for my mother and my second sister-in-law. You can put more rice in it. They both need nutrition. In addition, I will give you fifty eggs. You can cook one for each of them every day."
It might be difficult for the Li family to supply eggs to two pregnant women.
Li Jinfeng couldn't just watch two pregnant women eat coarse grains and pickles with her.
"Jinfeng, should I tell grandpa about this?" Huang Yu asked.
"No need! Just do it quietly in private! Even if grandpa knows, he will understand you! In addition, you have to be on guard against Li Ailan, she likes to talk nonsense outside." Li Jinfeng said.
"Okay! I know, Ailan, I will definitely be on guard. I lock the grain every day now. I plan to let Dahu and Dahe repair the barn and learn from you to put two locks on it. Then I won't have to worry about others entering the barn casually in the future!" Huang Yu said.
"kindness!"
…
After dark, Li Jinfeng sent fifty eggs to Huang Yu.
Then there are twenty kilograms of white rice.
The white rice was locked in the cabinet in Huang Yu's room, and the eggs were placed in the corner of her room, blocked by a stool. Unless someone deliberately walked there, they would generally not be found.
Huang Yu and Li Dahu now lock the door when they go out. It's all because Li Aiju scared them. In the past, they never locked the door.
