But her stomach was still rumbling, so she hurriedly fumbled around in the space and took out two meat buns.
At this moment, she didn't care about her eating manners and just stuffed the food into her mouth voraciously. The fragrant taste of the meat buns spread in her mouth, making her very satisfied.
After a while, she had devoured the two meat buns in no time, and her stomach finally stopped protesting and growling.
After eating, she rinsed her mouth carefully with water, repeatedly rinsing it several times, and then smelled her mouth to make sure there was no odor. Only then did she finally let go of her worries. Every household was short of food, especially meat, and she couldn't let anyone smell that she had eaten meat.
After Yao Qingshuang had eaten and drunk her fill, she began to carefully study this magical supermarket space.
She tried to put some small objects in the house into the space, but she didn't expect that she could actually put things from outside in smoothly. This discovery immediately made her ecstatic.
Suddenly, she seemed to remember something and lay down under the bed.
In the corner under the bed, the Su family's money box was hidden.
Yao Qingshuang took great effort to pull out the tightly hidden cash box.
She carefully opened the cash box and began to count carefully.
This number is incredible, it is 18 taels and 667 wen.
You know, in Sujia Village, farmers work hard every year and can only save two or three taels of silver at most.
The Su family was able to save so much money because the original owner of this body, Old Mrs. Yao, was very careful with her money. She calculated every expense clearly and saved wherever she could. That's how she managed to accumulate such a considerable fortune.
Yao Qingshuang did not dare to be careless and quickly placed the cash box carefully into the space.
Then she rummaged through the house again, finding out some important things, such as household registration, travel permits, etc., and putting them away carefully.
She also took care of everything else that could fit into the space and stuffed them all in at once.
Looking at the house that was once full but now became empty, Yao Qingshuang did not feel lost. Instead, a sense of security arose spontaneously.
After all, these important things and money were properly placed in the supermarket by her, and they might come in handy on the next journey of fleeing famine.
Yao Qingshuang walked slowly to the kitchen door. Before she went in, she faintly heard the sound of someone talking inside.
She gently pushed open the somewhat shabby kitchen door and took a look. It turned out that the second daughter-in-law Li Zhaodi and the third daughter-in-law Zhao Chunhua were still busy inside. It seemed that they were busy preparing dry food for the journey of fleeing famine.
"Second son's wife, third son's wife, are the dry food ready?" Yao Qingshuang hurriedly cleared her throat, trying to imitate the original owner's usual tone and expression, trying to make her performance appear more natural.
"Mom, you're here." Li Zhaodi, the second son's wife, hurriedly raised her head and responded when she heard Yao Qingshuang's voice, fiddling with the baked bread in her hands. "The bread is all baked dry. Look, each one is golden brown. It will be convenient to eat on the road and won't spoil easily. We also fried some of the remaining rice and flour. If we don't have time to light a fire to cook on the road, we can just mix it with water and eat it. It will also fill our stomachs."
As Li Zhaodi spoke, she carefully arranged the baked breadcrumbs in an orderly manner, her face full of seriousness and determination to prepare for this journey to escape famine.
The third daughter-in-law, Zhao Chunhua, was neatly packing up the used pots and pans, nodding in agreement with Li Zhaodi. "Don't worry, mother. My second sister-in-law and I are fully prepared and have done everything we need to. We just hope that the journey goes smoothly and that everyone arrives safely in the south."
As she spoke, she put the washed dishes in order, her eyes revealing a sense of worry about the future journey.
After hearing what the second and third daughters-in-law said, Yao Qingshuang showed an approval look on her face and nodded slightly.
I thought to myself that these two daughters-in-law are really hardworking and capable. They have done such a thorough and proper job in preparing dry food for the journey of fleeing famine, which really saves me a lot of worry.
"Okay, you've all been busy all day. Look, it's almost the end of the Xu hour, and it's getting late. Go back and get some rest. We'll be leaving at the Mao hour tomorrow, so you need to go to bed early and get enough rest."
Yao Qingshuang slowed down her tone and spoke to them with some concern.
"Yes, mother." The second daughter-in-law Li Zhaodi and the third daughter-in-law Zhao Chunhua responded in unison, their tone full of respect.
Their eyes followed Yao Qingshuang's figure until they saw her slowly leave. Then they turned around and continued to clean up the kitchen, and then went back to their rooms to rest.

Before the first ray of dawn in the sky completely dispelled the darkness of night, Yao Qingshuang jumped out of bed with a start.
She dared not slack off at all, because today was the day when the whole village would set out together to escape the famine.
She quickly woke up everyone in the family and rushed to the ancestral hall in Sujia Village with the whole family.
Although the departure time has not yet arrived according to the plan, Yao Qingshuang knows that the road to escape famine is full of unknowns and hardships, and it is always a good idea to prepare early.
When they arrived at the ancestral hall, they were surprised to find that it was already crowded and bustling.
The villagers stood or sat, gathered in groups of three or five, and discussed the upcoming journey to escape famine.
Everyone's face was filled with worry and expectation. The worry was about the uncertain future, and the expectation was to find a paradise in the south where they could settle down.
Su Wenxuan saw her family members standing in the crowd at a glance, and a warm feeling surged in her heart.
She immediately called her husband Zhou Shitou and asked him to drive their ox cart to the front of the ancestral hall and place it side by side with her mother's cart.
Zhou Shitou is a burly, dark-skinned man. He was originally a hunter in the mountains and has acquired great skills since he was young.
Since marrying Su Wenxuan, he moved to the village with his father. With his hard work and ability, and the support of his wife's family, his life gradually became prosperous.
Hearing his wife's call, Zhou Shitou immediately put down the work in his hands and walked over with big strides.
He skillfully untied the rope of the ox cart and slowly pulled the cart to the front of the ancestral hall, placing it close to the cart of Yao Qingshuang's family.
Such an arrangement not only makes it convenient for them to take care of each other, but also adds a sense of security on the road to escape famine.
