17. Chapter 17 Entering the County Town Again 1



Feng Qingxue carried more than ten bundles of firewood back to her home in one breath, and also took a few bundles of straw. When she got home, she quickly used stones to build an earthen stove on the side of the door and put a clay pot on it.

The water in the earthen jar was scooped from the river.

She used matches to light the fire, and she told Feng Qingyun that they were given to her by a kind-hearted person.

What is the reality?

In fact, she was afraid that the lighter would become unusable in the future, so she stockpiled a lot of matches in the space and is now using them.

It wasn't that she had foresight, but she knew very well that ordinary lighters would not work once the fluid in them was used up.

Feng Qingyun squatted in front of the stove and lit the fire. The firelight reflected her excited face. "Sister, you are such a kind person!"

Feng Qingxue shook her head and smiled.

While Feng Qingyun was watching the fire and boiling water, she simply cleaned the house and laid a thick layer of thatch on the floor in the corner of the east wall.

This haystack is the temporary bed for the two sisters.

After boiling hot water, she poured it into a wooden basin, added cold water, and used it to wash Feng Qingyun's hair and give her a bath. She then put on the floral shorts that she had sewn for her when she stopped on the way back, and then put on the cotton jacket, trousers, and coat that she had bought today.

It's not that she doesn't care about hygiene and she put the clothes on Feng Qingyun as soon as she bought them. It's just that Feng Qingyun really needs to wear the clothes.

The coat Feng Qingyun was wearing was not the one without patches, but the one with patches.

The clothes were a little too big for Feng Qingyun, and looked a little empty, but there was nothing that could be done about it. Feng Qingxue had no experience, so her visual estimation was not that accurate. Besides, Feng Qingyun was still growing taller, so a bigger size would be just right.

Feng Qingyun tugged at his clothes, stamped his feet, and smiled.

"Sister, sister, I have clothes, I have shoes!" she repeated impatiently over and over again.

"If someone asks you where the clothes came from, just say that I went out and begged them from many families." Feng Qingxue reminded.

"Sister, I begged for it!"

Feng Qingxue smiled and said, "Yes, we begged for it. But we can't tell others that we begged for steamed buns, eggs and rice. If someone asks us what delicious food we begged for, you can say it was a steamed bun made of sweet potato flour and sorghum flour."

Feng Qingyun nodded, "I know, sister. If they know we are going to have delicious food, they will also go begging. Then if there are more people begging, we will have less food. I won't tell them! The steamed bread made of sweet potato flour and sorghum flour is also delicious. I will just say it is the steamed bread we eat in the cafeteria."

The steamed bread they eat in the cafeteria? Feng Qingxue was confused.

Soon, she remembered.

The collective canteen had just been disbanded. Before that, everyone ate in a big pot. What was Wowotou like? It was steamed Wowotou made from sweet potato flour mixed with corn and wheat stalks, stems and leaves, and sweet potato vines, and these crop stalks and stems accounted for two-thirds of the total.

It is this kind of steamed corn bread that everyone treats as a treasure. It can only be eaten during the busy farming season, and usually people just drink it with thin soup.

"So smart!" Feng Qingxue touched Feng Qingyun's head.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Although they had only been together for half a day and half a night, Feng Qingxue discovered that the child in front of her was quite smart.

It's a pity not to send such a smart child to school.

Feng Qingxue decided to send her to school when she was two years older. When the door to the college entrance examination opened, she would be in her thirties and might not have the opportunity to take the college entrance examination. But Feng Qingyun was only in her twenties and could go to college, which would give her a better future.
