Chen Xuanxuan had just said that she was going to go up the mountain, and her parents-in-law, who were lying on the straw pile, sat up from the pile with excitement.

"Don't go! Don't go!" "Let

's not go!"

Seeing their eyes wide open, terrified, and anxious like ants on a hot pot, Chen Xuanxuan was puzzled at the time.

"Our family is in this situation. If we don't go out to find something to eat, how many days can we live?"

Hearing her daughter-in-law say this, Qiao's face was bitter and tears fell directly from the corners of her eyes.

"But there are tigers on this mountain!"

"Daughter-in-law, have you forgotten? Just last month, Wang Laoshi, the honest man at the head of the village, was bitten by the throat by a tiger that came down the mountain and was carried away!"

"Wuwuwuwu, daughter-in-law, don't go, don't go up the mountain! The mountain is too dangerous, we will stay here and dig more grass roots, and after a while, when the weather gets warmer and spring comes, our family will survive..."

When Qiao said these words, tears flowed down her face.

She couldn't help but think of her personal experience over the years.

As early as several decades ago, her husband's father also wanted to go up the mountain to try his luck at this time of year when he saw that everyone at home couldn't bear it anymore.

At that time, no one in the family could have imagined that her father-in-law would disappear completely after he went up the mountain.

No one would see him alive or dead!

Thinking of the tiger roar she heard decades ago, and last month when she went out to look for food, she saw the yellow tiger with its bloody mouth biting Wang Laoshi's neck, Qiao's wrinkled face turned even paler.

"Don't go, don't go..."

Chen Xuanxuan couldn't help but comfort her when she found that her mother-in-law was getting more and more emotional, as if she was about to lose control.

"Okay, okay, I won't go, I won't go..."

"Mother-in-law, calm down. Don't cry. If you keep crying, you will use up the bowl of porridge you just finished."

Qiao held back her tears after hearing this. After

talking for so long and crying for so long, Qiao felt that her strength seemed to be exhausted.

"I, I feel a little tired, I want to sleep for a while. You can wake me up at dinner time tomorrow morning..."

After saying this, she closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Seeing her half-dead skeleton, Chen Xuanxuan felt heavy in her heart.

It's hard.

In this dynasty, the life of rural people is really hard.

Especially in these days of famine.

In the past, Chen Xuanxuan always heard the older generation say that in their era, many people could not survive when there was a shortage of food. There were people who starved to death at home. Chen Xuanxuan

used to think that the older generation was a bit exaggerated.

But when she experienced it herself, she really knew what the shortage of food and the hard life meant.

Seeing that all the people lying by the stove were people, she had no place to stay. After thinking about it, Chen Xuanxuan decided to go back to her main room and carefully study the poor APP in front of her.

She just bought a 100-gram bag of soy milk powder for one dime.

Then, there must be trial packs for other products.

Although she still doesn't know the exact balance on her card. However, she is sure that the balance on her card is definitely less than 18.8 yuan!

Because when she wanted to buy the 5-jin bag of soy milk powder, the Qiongheihei app had already reminded her by voice that the balance was insufficient.

So now she can only hope to buy more samples.

Chen Xuanxuan stretched out her right hand and clicked on the Qiongheihei app page.

She is still looking at food now.

She found that the second-ranked one was selling expired flour.

Chen Xuanxuan thought about it seriously and clicked in tentatively.

It was found that the sales volume of this flour has reached 1,000+, and the number of comments is still 0.

Chen Xuanxuan took a look at the specifications and prices of the product.

Just like the soy milk powder before.

This flour has three specifications in total. There is a 5-jin bag. There is a 10-jin bag. And there is a 20-jin bag.

The 5-jin bag is the most expensive, costing 15 yuan. The 10-jin bag is 28 yuan.

The 20-jin bag is 50 yuan.

Chen Xuanxuan said that she was willing to buy the 20-jin bag because she thought it was the most cost-effective.

Thinking of flour, Chen Xuanxuan started to search for "flour" by voice.

As a result, Chen Xuanxuan only saw that there was only one merchant selling expired flour in the flour column.

So she couldn't help but sigh.

She originally thought that there were other merchants who could sell it cheaper.

In Chen Xuanxuan's opinion, 50 yuan for a 20-jin bag of expired flour is still too expensive.

Moreover, it is not just ordinary expensive.

If it were normal, she would definitely not think of buying it.

But now, she actually wants to buy it. But she also knows that the balance on her card is insufficient. She

thinks that although her money is not more than 18.8 yuan, she should have 15 yuan, right? ...

So, Chen Xuanxuan made a second brave attempt.

She manually clicked on the small box of 5 jin of flour.

Then, she prepared to check out.

As a result, to her surprise, the Qiongheihei app started to announce in voice, "Your balance is insufficient, please choose a trial package."

Hearing it say that there was not even 15 yuan on her card, Chen Xuanxuan was like a puppet. She was completely stunned.

Was there something wrong? !

How come there is not even 15 yuan left in her bank card?

Impossible!

How can she be so poor? !

There is not even 15 yuan on the card,... This, this is too unbelievable.

Although Chen Xuanxuan has to pay off her mortgage and car loan every month and has always been a moonlight clan, she feels that she still has some money on her card, right?

Chen Xuanxuan really finds it hard to accept the reality that she has no money.

However, the harsh reality tells her that she has to accept it even if she doesn't want to.

So, she pressed the button with a firm face and chose the trial pack of flour.

A bag of 250 grams of flour only costs one dime.

It feels quite cost-effective, so Chen Xuanxuan quickly paid.

…

Again, I saw a small black cube popping out from the bottom of the all-green page. And that small black cube spit out a bag of 250 grams of flour in a transparent plastic bag.

Chen Xuanxuan couldn't help laughing.

One cent for half a pound of flour, hahaha, there's food to eat tonight.

As soon as Chen Xuanxuan finished laughing, she immediately realized a problem.

How could her nerves be so strong?

It hasn't been long since she traveled here, and she has adapted to such a life?

Why doesn't she be pretentious for a few days?

Why doesn't she cry?

Although she did cry to death last night. And she even fell asleep from crying.

But after crying for so long, her nerves have become so strong today.
