Wang Xiulan was beaten and was quite unconvinced.
She yelled in the yard at the top of her voice, "Oh, Guihua, you can't refuse to accept your fate at your age.
In our village, I have never seen anyone with a bloated intestine survive. What’s the matter? Is your family special?
Qian Guihua was so angry that she rushed into the kitchen and grabbed a kitchen knife.
When Wang Xiulan saw this, she was frightened and rushed out screaming, attracting those who were still breathing in Qingshan Village to come and join in the fun.
Some people tried to comfort Qian Guihua and told her not to be angry, but more people agreed with Wang Xiulan and thought Qian Guihua was a little crazy.
"Osmanthus, I know you're feeling bad, but we have to face reality, right? Tell me quickly, who's in trouble? We're from the same village, and we can help."
"Your family is in trouble, you're such a disaster, why can't you hope for good luck?"
After some discussion, everyone finally believed Qian Guihua's story, but they became even more curious about the situation at Old Qin's house.
The team leader came back and checked the situation inside. He came out and said to everyone, "Go back, it's not a big deal."
"No, Captain, there was a huge commotion at the Qin family last night. How could nothing happen?"
Wang Xiulan's hair was messy and her eyes revealed confusion and grievance.
Qian Guihua snorted coldly: "My third child is lucky. He went up the mountain and caught a mouse.
Although this stuff can't be compared with lard, my family hasn't eaten meat for three years. Jinbao and the others pooped all night, but they saved their lives!
Although Qian Guihua's words were a bit exaggerated, after everyone thought about it carefully, they found that it was indeed true.
Those whose families had never encountered any misfortune admired the Qin family's good fortune.
Someone in the family who died of bloating started to cry, regretting that he hadn't caught a mouse for the old man to eat. Otherwise, he wouldn't have...
Although the matter was made clear, the members did not disperse.
Yes, it’s been a while since we last chatted. We got together to talk about family matters and cry about how hard life has been lately.
Find psychological comfort in mutual pity.
So, it was purely Qin Jianye's misunderstanding.
When Captain Qin Baogen saw the third son of the Qin family coming back in such a miserable state, he asked about the situation.
Qin Jianye didn't elaborate, only vaguely saying, "I went out to look for food and got beaten up!"
Everyone sighed, thinking that the Qin family's fortune might not be as good as Qian Guihua said.
Didn’t you see her third child? He was beaten twice in a row.
With such luck, even if his younger generation survives this bloating, they may not be able to survive until the end of the famine.
However, my family wasn't much better. At most, I could only hold out a few days longer than the Qin family.
Thinking of this, no one wanted to stay any longer. Qin Baogen said goodbye and left in a hurry.
Before leaving, Qin Baogen asked, "Third brother, do you want Old Wang to come over and take a look at you? This bloody mess is really scary!"
Qin Jianye quickly shook his head: "No, uncle, it just looks scary, but it's actually nothing serious."
I thought, forget it, Old Wang is a veterinarian and is not a good match for him.
Besides, there has been a shortage of medicine everywhere in the past two years. Even if we call someone over, they will probably just say something irrelevant.
Qin Baogen was not angry after being rejected. He just reminded them to rest more and left with his hands behind his back.
Compared to the others, the captain's physique was quite tall and straight, but Qin Jianye could still see the helplessness and unwillingness hidden beneath his thin figure.
Seeing that there was no one outside, Chen Yunwei touched Qin Jianye's wound with heartache and asked, "Does it hurt?"
Qin Jianye shook his head: "Not bad! Help me back to the house, I have something to say to you and Siyue."
Chen Yun nodded slightly, hugged Qin Jianye's arm and pulled it up. But she was too weak to pull it up.
Qin Jianye also tried to stand up, but he had been traveling for such a long time and was frightened, so his legs were weak.
In the end, it was the old lady who came to help and sent Qin Jianye back into the house.
Qin Siyue opened her eyes in a daze, and when she saw her father's miserable appearance, she instantly woke up.
She cried and said, "If I had known earlier, I would have gone with you. Who knows, maybe we, father and daughter, can beat the gangster to a pulp."
Qin Jianye was relieved, but still said: "They are not ordinary bandits."
Qin Siyue wanted to ask, but Qin Jianye didn't explain. He took out a piece of newspaper from his arms and said in a low voice: "Mom, this is the two kilograms of sorghum flour I bought!"
Qian Guihua burst into tears and patted Qin Jianye's shoulder: "You stupid kid, didn't I tell you to put yourself first? What are you doing?
You can take out food without locking the door, and you won't be afraid of thieves!"
The old lady walked out crying, mumbling non-stop. After locking the gate, she came back and opened the newspaper.
I looked at the fine flour inside and twisted it with my hands. Then I put it to my nose and smelled it. The aroma of fresh grains made me feel brighter.
"Third brother, how come you are so capable? Mother knew you were more capable than your two brothers!"
Qin Jianye was speechless, thinking, "You've said all the good and bad things," so what should he say?
After a while, the old lady carefully folded the newspaper and asked, "How much did it cost?"
Qin Jianye "did not hide" it: "It was all spent." He lowered his head and his voice was weak.
The old lady sighed, "It's okay. I can earn more even if I spend it. With this bag of food, I can at least last another half a month. Okay, you take a rest. I'll go make some porridge."
Qin Jianye grabbed the old lady's sleeve and said, "Don't do that yet. Mother, grind up this pill, dissolve it in water, and give it to my eldest and second brothers to drink."
"What is this?"
"It's a diarrhea medicine. I got my face covered in blood just to get it."
The old lady patted Qin Jianye's hand distressedly: "It's us, the third child, who thinks about this family all the time.
Wait, I'll ask the eldest and second oldest sons to come over and thank you.
His brother desperately sought medicine for them, so they must know, remember the favor, and repay the favor."
"Don't, mother, we can't leave it alone. We are all brothers."
The old lady turned a deaf ear, like a charging soldier. Qin Jianye spread his hands helplessly: "Okay, let's talk later."
"No, Dad, how did I see that newspaper? It's 2024?"
"Oh no, I forgot to change it!" Qin Jianye slapped his forehead, stood up and rushed out.
I don’t know what he said to the old lady, but anyway, Qin Jiandang and Qin Jianjun didn’t come over, and Qin Jianye also took the newspaper back.
"Phew, I was so scared! I almost got caught. Luckily, your grandma was smart and didn't show off the food."
"Dad, let's not talk about this for now. How come you have been reading newspapers for 24 years?" Qin Siyue knelt on the kang, his eyes sparkling and full of anticipation.
"Is there space?" Chen Yunwei made a bold guess.
Qin Jianye pursed his lips and looked at the mother and daughter intently. After whetting their appetites, he excitedly said, "That's right, I brought our family here!"
"Is it the large flat that was just renovated?" Chen Yunwei almost jumped up in surprise.
Qin Jianye nodded: "Yes, and all the supplies inside are there, complete.
Fortunately, I made preparations at the beginning, otherwise, even if the three of us had space, we would be at a loss!"
