When Da Zhuang next to him heard this, he couldn't help but burst into laughter. His big white teeth looked particularly eye-catching under the light of the fire.
He grinned and said, "Haha, never mind, it's a good deal for us now! This is really God's blessing on us, sending us so much food when we are almost out of food!"
After hearing what Da Zhuang said, the others also started laughing, and the whole cellar was filled with a joyful and cheerful atmosphere.
"Okay, everyone, stop being so cheerful. We need to move the food up there quickly. The village chief and the others are waiting there."
Someone shouted loudly, and this voice instantly brought everyone back to their senses.
When Da Hu heard this, he rushed to the pile of food without saying a word.
He bent down, grasped the two corners of a bag of grain tightly with both hands, and with a "hey" sound, he easily lifted the bag of grain onto his shoulder.
The bag of grain was heavy on his shoulders, but his face was full of enthusiasm and he strode steadily towards the cellar entrance.
Seeing this, the others were also encouraged and became very active, rushing to move the food.
The young man followed Da Hu's example, carrying bags of grain and heading towards the entrance, shouting to encourage himself: "Hey hey hey, it's time to move the grain, everyone, work harder!"
There is strength in numbers. The big guys worked together, taking turns to pack bags.
In a short while, the grain that had been piled up like mountains in the cellar was moved out one bag at a time.
The cellar gradually became empty, but the open space outside the cellar was filled with bags of grain, like a small hill, shining with hope under the sunlight.
Everyone gathered in the room, staring at the food that had piled up like a small mountain. Everyone's face was filled with surprise, as if they had seen the most precious treasure in the world.
Before coming to this cellar, no one had high hopes.
I thought that even if there was food in this cellar, it would probably be about the same amount as the food hidden by the bandits. It would be good if there were two or three hundred kilograms.
But now, when they actually saw the mountains of food in front of them, everyone's eyes widened, their mouths opened wide, and their faces were full of disbelief.
This is not just two or three hundred kilograms, the number is far beyond everyone's expectations.
Bags of grain were neatly stacked, layer upon layer, high and low, forming a rather spectacular "hill" in the room. In the slightly dim room, the grains seemed to emit a golden light, which was the light of hope.
"Haha, God bless us!" I don't know who shouted this first, and then everyone started cheering.
At this moment, everyone felt relieved. The frowns that had been caused by the food problem relaxed, and their faces were filled with anticipation and expectation that the future journey would go smoothly.
This abundant food is not only food to fill your stomach, but also the confidence and guarantee for everyone to move forward!
"Oh my God, so much food, this... I must be dreaming." Widow Wang opened her eyes wide, staring at the room full of food in front of her, muttering to herself.
Aunt Qin, who was standing by, heard what Widow Wang said, her eyes rolled, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a sly smile.
Without saying a word, she reached out and pinched Widow Wang's arm hard.
"Ouch!" Widow Wang screamed in pain. She turned her head sharply, her eyes wide open, and roared at Aunt Qin with a face full of anger: "Qin Guihua, why are you pinching me? You crazy woman, you don't know how to control your strength. It hurts me to death!"
She shouted and rubbed her pinched arm, her eyes seemed to be spitting fire, and she was obviously annoyed by this sudden attack.
Aunt Qin, however, didn't seem to mind at all. Instead, she looked at Widow Wang with a smile and replied slowly, "I'm just trying to show you whether you're dreaming or not. You suspect you're dreaming, don't you? If I pinch you, you'll know for sure, haha!"
She laughed as she spoke, and her laughter seemed particularly abrupt in the room that was originally filled with a joyful atmosphere. However, she herself was enjoying it and did not notice that Widow Wang was so angry that her face turned red.
Widow Wang was furious when she heard this. She stamped her feet, pointed at Aunt Qin's nose and cursed, "Qin Guihua, you are so mean. How could you try it like this? It hurts me to death. I think you did it on purpose to torment me!"
Aunt Qin wasn't to be outdone. She put her hands on her hips and retorted, "Humph, how could I have done that on purpose? I'm doing this for your own good. You're taking my kindness for granted. You're such an ungrateful person!"
Just like that, the two of them started arguing with each other again. The sound became louder and louder, echoing in the room, instantly breaking the harmonious and joyful atmosphere that was originally filled with the discovery of food.
The village chief was looking at the food with great joy, thinking about how to distribute it so that everyone could travel smoothly.
But the sudden noise beside his ears made him frown and secretly complain: "Oh, it's already this late, and they're still making a fuss here. It really makes me worry!"
So the village chief quickly ordered the women around him, saying, "You guys, go pull them aside and tell them to stop arguing. We don't have time to deal with their trivial matters right now. We are all busy. Hurry!"
The women responded and walked forward, each grabbing one and dragging Aunt Qin and Widow Wang, who were still arguing, to the corner of the room. This finally eased the atmosphere in the room a little.
The other villagers gathered together happily, their eyes all fixed on the food in front of them.
Everyone started talking about it.
"Oh, look at this grain, the quality is so good! The owner of this farm must be very rich, to have so much grain and just throw it away in the cellar without worrying about it being wasted." A white-haired old man touched his chin and said with emotion, his eyes full of amazement at the quantity and quality of the grain.
"Yes, yes, this must be a wealthy family with a lot of wealth! There must be a lot of things in the house, and the grain must be piled up like a mountain. Why would they care about such a small amount of grain in the cellar? Maybe they have long forgotten that there is such a place to hide grain." Mrs. Li echoed.
"Humph, I heard that not only do the people in this rich family eat well, but even the food they feed their dogs is finer than what we usually eat. This world is really unfair!" A burly man couldn't help but complain indignantly.
"But no matter what, the food left by the owner of this farm really solved our urgent needs." Su Wencheng said with emotion.
