Everyone on night watch got a share, even a sweet potato.
Because the shift changes during the second half of the night, food is left for the person on duty during that time.
Treat everyone equally and without discrimination.
Although the amount of food distributed was not much, it was at least a benefit, with both meat and vegetables, which others did not have!
Being able to eat such delicious food at a time like this is a truly blissful thing!
Many people would kill for it, and money can't buy it!
It tastes delicious, and it's so satisfying to swallow it!
Normally, they rarely get to eat roast chicken, so this meal is just as good as before!
They're just keeping watch; they don't need to keep watch with anyone!
But the treatment is quite different; you'd be hard-pressed to find such a great group even with a lantern!
Sometimes, giving small favors or perks, or having a get-together, is a great way to win people's hearts. It can quickly unite everyone, create a strong sense of cohesion, and make people willing to contribute to the collective.
The journey of fleeing famine was fraught with danger, making it a difficult and challenging experience for other villagers. Their morale was low, and their mental state deteriorated over time, so some intervention was necessary.
When you eat well, you're in a better mood, you're more motivated, and you'll be more dedicated to your night watch!
That's absolutely right. The villagers were so moved by the roasted chicken that they almost cried. They wanted to save some for their families, but there wasn't much, and it was so delicious that they couldn't resist trying it. Before they knew it, they had finished it all!
After eating and cleaning up, everyone immediately went on patrol.
After eating, you have to behave well, you can't just eat for nothing!
Xiao Liu is finally able to feel the joy of integrating into the big group, which is really heartwarming!
There are many things he hasn't experienced before and doesn't know how to do, but that doesn't stop him from learning at all!
Moreover, he has a really strong learning ability. He can basically remember something after watching it twice, and if you let him do it a few times, he can learn it very quickly!
Su Nanxi appreciated this point and felt that she hadn't picked up the child for nothing!
Xiao Liu is eager to learn and is not afraid of getting dirty or tired. He is willing to do any kind of work without any complaints.
After all that work, he actually learned a lot.
People's attitudes toward him have changed drastically, and they've even started joking with him.
The men in Zhou Qionghua's family were on night watch during the second half of the night. By the time they changed shifts, Su Nanxi and the others had already gone to bed to rest.
Seeing that there was roast chicken to eat, I didn't dare to take any. I felt uneasy because I felt that they hadn't done anything wrong. Is this meat something that just anyone can eat?
They used to only be able to taste meat every few months, so how come they can eat it just because they've been on guard duty for a night here?
They had been on guard duty all night, which was their job, and they hadn't done anything extra, so how could they dare to take action!
The three brothers looked at each other, too embarrassed to take it.
Finally, Boss Mo stuffed the food into their hands, saying, "Eat up! Keeping watch all night is hard work, you deserve to eat something good! Even if you weren't here, we would still eat like this! Sometimes we would even roast vegetables and rabbit! We don't know how far we have to go, we need to eat well to have the strength! Don't be shy, everyone eats like this!"
The three brothers hesitated for a moment, but in the end they ate it anyway.
It smells so good! Now that I have it in my hands, I don't want to put it back!
They had never eaten roasted chicken before, and they didn't know how it was roasted or how it smelled so good. They swallowed their saliva several times!
There must be some kind of paint added, otherwise it wouldn't smell so good. I wanted to eat another piece after just one!
Worried that their ravenous eating habits would be laughed at, the three of them tried their best to control themselves and chew slowly, eating little by little.
Chen Chong suddenly recalled the scene when Su Nanxi took him hunting in the mountains, and couldn't help but feel a sense of emotion. It seems that some people are just born with this ability. He had tried many methods afterward, but none of them worked!
No matter what he did, there wasn't a single wild animal, not even an insect!
He had made a perfect replica of what looked like a very simple trap, even more elaborate than before, but in the end he still got nothing!
His family laughed at him for a long time, telling him to stop messing around, since no one in the village was as good as him and could catch wild animals with such a simple trap!
Catching wild animals depends on both luck and skill!
He doesn't have any of those things, so it's better to give up as soon as possible. He's always causing trouble and never doing his job properly!
Later, when all his attempts failed, he gave up.
I never expected to run into her again. It's clear that my cousin-in-law is really capable; she can catch wild animals no matter where she goes!
Thinking of this, Chen Chong couldn't help but laugh at himself a few times. He really dared to dream of all sorts of good things!
To dream big when you have no ability is truly absurd.
I've heard that the Mo family's dried meat is made from wild game, which shows that the Mo family has some experts. This is something that someone like him, who knows nothing, can only dream of.
Even if he were given eight to ten years, he might not be able to acquire that skill!
Let's stop daydreaming and be down-to-earth in our work and life!
However, if he really had even a little bit of skill, his marriage wouldn't have been ruined like this. It seems he still needs to seize the opportunity to learn more, preferably to acquire a skill.
When his parents get old, his brothers will eventually have to divide the family property. He doesn't have any skills, so how can he support a family? Right now, he really has nothing!
Let's put the marriage on hold for now and focus on improving our own abilities. He's realized that the Mo family is no longer the same as before. They must have some secret to their transformation from nothing to what they are today, and he really wants to know. He also wants to change the current situation of his family!
All night long, Chen Chong pondered life, and finally made up his mind to follow the Mo family and learn as much as possible!
There must be a reason why they were able to develop so successfully; it's not a bad thing to learn from them!
So, Chen Chong took the initiative to help, not minding the hardship or fatigue, and volunteered to do any job. Like Xiao Liu, they were both desperately trying to get some opportunities.
Su Nanxi wasn't stupid; she saw through it at a glance, but she didn't say anything. It's good for people to have ideals, goals, and pursuits. Knowing what you want and how to get it is much better than those who just want something for nothing!
She certainly wouldn't crack down on it, but she also wouldn't give it special treatment or open a green channel for it.
The process itself is a kind of experience. It's good to go through more trials. The kids are still young, so it's not a bad thing for them to have more experiences!
As before, I cooked a big pot of porridge in the morning. I got up and started working before dawn. I'd rather leave early than work under the scorching sun!
They weren't the only early risers; as soon as it got light, there were already sounds coming from all around.
After they finished eating the porridge, it was dawn, and only then could they see where they were.
They were on the high ground, which was actually on the riverbank, while many of the other refugees were on the riverbed.
The village chief came over and asked, "Mute woman, is there any more water to fetch? We want to fill up with more water!"
