Chapter 202: I can’t even eat good food



Gu Yanzhang has always felt that the affection between husband and wife is something that is developed slowly. They can only be good if they discuss everything.

Gu Yanzhang never looks down on women.

He knows in his heart that the daughter taught by old lady Liu is definitely not that simple.

... Chen Xuanxuan doesn't feel very good about being cared for by her man.

After all, sometimes, the affection between husband and wife can hardly satisfy her appetite.

It can be said that every time she wants to eat the delicacies she has eaten before, she has a particularly big sense of emptiness in her heart.

The food here is really too bad!

There is no egg pie, no grilled wings, no cola, no soda. There is no durian pizza.

Of course, she doesn’t eat anything related to pickled vegetables very often.

Fried chicken, roast duck, chicken legs, chicken wings, hamburgers, etc. are all rare! Only

on the first day of the Chinese New Year can she eat the soybean stewed pig’s feet that she particularly wants to eat.

Every time Chen Xuanxuan thinks of those delicacies, she is constantly thankful in her heart, thankful that she has pigs at home!

Moreover, she also made part of the pork into sausages.

Of course, now that she can eat three slices of sausage every day, she has already attracted a lot of scolding from people in and outside the village...

Even when she ate a scallion pancake yesterday, she accidentally attracted the attention of thousands of people.

Scallion pancake, that is a small scallion pancake!

In the past, she was picky and didn't like to eat.

Now, she thinks that her husband is doing a good deed if she can eat a scallion pancake.

Recalling the past and thinking about the present, Chen Xuanxuan's tears suddenly burst out of her eyes.

Suddenly seeing his wife crying, Gu Yanzhang hugged her without thinking.

"Wife, wife, what's wrong with you? Why are you crying for no reason? Tell me."

At this moment, Chen Xuanxuan simply couldn't tell him all her true thoughts.

So, after she sobbed, she lied to him, "Boss, I am, I am really worried."

"A few days ago, my mother said something to me. Ever since I heard those words, I have felt uncomfortable."

"She told me that if we are unlucky this time and really encounter a drought, then we will lose the good life we ​​have now."

After hearing this, Gu Yanzhang endured it for a long time, and finally nodded heavily, "You are right, I actually have this worry too."

"Today, I followed my brother-in-law and walked around the county town for several times. I saw many refugees who were half-naked and didn't even have a pair of straw sandals, kneeling on the ground begging for food."

"To be honest, I felt very uncomfortable when I saw that scene. I don't want to be like them."

When Chen Xuanxuan learned that there were many refugees in the county town, she immediately thought of the peasant uprisings written in history books.

As a person who has studied in college and is deeply influenced by Marxist philosophy, Chen Xuanxuan knows very well that in the 5,000-year history of China, the overthrow of most dynasties was due to peasant uprisings.

The lower-class people have a hard life and can't survive, so they will choose to wander. If the situation is worse and the court doesn't care, then they will choose a peasant uprising.

To steal and rob, to overthrow the court.

In the chaotic situation, after the reshuffle, new leaders will be born from the peasants.

The time for those heroes who emerged from the chaotic times to dominate the world is often a few years, but it may also be several decades.

However, no matter how long the chaos lasts, the most vulnerable are the peasants at the bottom of the society,

especially the female peasants like her.

Feeling that the refugees were a big hidden danger, Chen Xuanxuan coughed lightly and began to speak seriously to the man in front of her, "Boss, there are too many people in trouble, which is not a good thing."

Gu Yanzhang heard it and said with some intense emotions, "Of course!"

"Of course it is not a good thing!"

As an old native who has lived here for decades, Gu Yanzhang knows very well that those people in the government offices don't like idle men.

Those men in the county who have not found a proper job and have not been able to marry and have children are basically the objects of key supervision.

The atmosphere in their place is good. There are no casinos, nor formal brothels.

There are no big opium houses.

Because after several county magistrates came here, they didn't allow others to do this, and they didn't allow their subordinates to do this.

Gu Yanzhang guessed that their place was already extremely poor. If they still did these things, then their county would become smoky and foul.

Anyone who came here to be a county magistrate basically wanted to achieve some results in this poor and remote place. As long as they were rated as excellent after five years, they could be transferred here immediately.

And the local atmosphere is actually an aspect that is assessed by the superiors of the county magistrate.

Nowadays, there are more refugees in the county, which is very likely to affect the image of the county. Therefore, within a few days, the county magistrate should be able to come up with some solutions to the problem.

He felt that this matter was not difficult to solve, so he told his wife all his thoughts.

"Wife, there are refugees in the county, you don't have to worry. Because within a few days, our limited master will personally take action to solve this matter."

After learning about many situations in the county from Gu Yanzhang, Chen Xuanxuan sighed softly.

Okay, as long as he has confidence in the county magistrate.

Chen Xuanxuan used to think that those who can become officials are generally smart people. Those

who can become minor officials, and can be minor officials for decades, are generally greasy old foxes.

Although all old youtiao look the same, they actually have different tastes.

There are old youtiao that are good at flattering the bosses.

There are also old youtiao that are good at getting things done.

There are also those old fried dough sticks who don't want to do anything and want to avoid everything, but want all kinds of benefits...

Thinking of those old fried dough sticks, Chen Xuanxuan couldn't help but start to drool.

What to do?

She suddenly wanted to eat fried dough sticks.

But now she is particularly clear that for the people here, oil is a particularly precious thing.

The vast majority of people can't afford rapeseed oil, tea oil, sesame oil, or soybean oil.

They can't afford the fried oil made from fat meat.

The oil that ordinary people can eat is generally made from rice.

Moreover, this kind of oil is also particularly precious.

Except for the New Year and festivals, they can't eat it at other times.

Chen Xuanxuan dared to pat her chest and guarantee that if she dared to secretly heat a pot of hot oil at home and fry dough sticks, there would definitely be a commotion in this family.
