Chapter 8: Dreaming
As for raising this pheasant for the time being, Huang Li had agreed earlier that he would wait until the pheasant eggs were hatched, and then finish all the food in the family that could be eaten, and then kill the chicken to eat.
"Sister, it's just... but there's nothing to eat now. What should we feed this pheasant?" Liu Mei suddenly became entangled.
I can’t even eat at home, so what should I feed to pheasants?
"We chop the dead grass and then boil it in boiling water. Pheasant should be able to eat it." The third sister smiled shyly and asked her elder sister.
"Well, the third sister said it right. Just feed the chickens like this. Let's go out and pick up more firewood and dry grass to come back for use. Maybe our family will have great uses in the future?" Huang Yiyun said with a deep smile.
When Huang Li saw a few kids, he talked and laughed happily. Huang Li showed a kind smile on his face and looked at the kids.
No matter how hard or tired you are, you can eat a bite and avoid starving to death. You have a house to avoid the cold and cover your body with clothes. The family is sick and painless, and neat, which is better than anything else.
However, in this famine and chaotic world, this small demand has become a luxury.
That night, Huang Li did not forget what her eldest sister said yesterday and wanted to take a shower.
Huang Li ordered Huang Conghe to go to the well at the village entrance, and brought back a large wooden barrel, heated it up to wash Huang Yiyun.
Huang Yiyun took a beautiful bath, and after she had food in her stomach, she lay on the hot kang and fell asleep comfortably.
Huang Yiyun had two dreams that night.
The first dream is that I dreamed that I successfully planted my greenhouse. In winter, I harvest batches of vegetables. The whole winter, the whole family also needs to save food.
The second dream is that I dream of a nest of rabbits, one male and one female, two rabbits with four little rabbits, nesting in their nests.
There are also a lot of hay and some messy things hidden in the three holes of the cunning rabbit.
However, Huang Yiyun dreamed of a rabbit's nest, which looked familiar.
Just as Xuan Qing was still thinking about something, he heard in his ears, "Sister, it's time for the eldest sister to wake up. Didn't you say yesterday that there was something that the second sister and third sister did for it?"
It’s time to begin now. In the past, my elder sister had already woken up, but now she hasn’t woken up yet, which makes my second sister a little strange.
"Well, when is it now?" After Huang Yiyun was awakened by her second sister, the two dreams were always deeply engraved in Xuanqing's mind.
In the past, I had dreams, and I would immediately forget it when I woke up the next day.
Now these two dreams are still fresh in my mind, which is a bit strange.
After Huang Yiyun washed up, she took her second and third sisters out.
"Big sister, are you going there." Huang Li asked after seeing the eldest sister and the three sisters go out together.
"Grandma, let's go out for a walk, don't worry, we won't go far."
"Well, it's cold outside, come back early if you have nothing to do." Now you don't have to go out to find food everywhere, and stay at home and get bored, so it's better to go out for a walk. Huang Li didn't say anything.
However, a few young men, after seeing their elder sisters go out, looked at Huang Li with some eyes and wanted to go out to play. They stayed in this small house. Although it was warm, the place was too small and it was not easy to play.
"You guys, just stay in the house and play, don't go outside." Huang Liu said.
"What are you asking my third sister and I to come out today?" Huang Yiling asked Huang Yiyun.
"Second sister, third sister, in this village, in addition to the house we live in, we can burn kangs, and there is also a house that can burn kangs. The room is larger." Huang Yiyun asked the second sister and third sister.
"Sister, I know this. There is a burning kang in the adobe house next to our house. The situation is similar to the earthen house we live in. There are two rooms on the left and right, and there are burning kangs in the room." Although Huang Yiqiu was a little puzzled by her elder sister's question about what she was doing, she replied honestly.
"Okay, take my sister to have a look."
"Yeah, it's not bad." After coming to the earthen embryo room next door.
I saw that the two left and right burning kang rooms were nearly thirty square meters, and the doors were intact and could be closed normally. They were neither big nor small, which was not much different from the earthen-breasted room they live in now.
The reason why the Huang family did not choose to live in this earthen house was because there were several large holes on the roof of the main house.
When it snows in winter, it will definitely fall from the roof, and the cold air will flow backwards, so the Huang family did not choose this earthen embryo room to live in, but instead chose the earthen embryo room next door.
"San sister, go and burn the kang in this house. Second sister, clean up this room and another room, get all the extra things out, and go out and have a look." Huang Yiyun told the second sister and the third sister to say.
"Okay, we know, sister." Although Huang Yiling and Huang Yiqiu didn't know what it was for her to ask them to do these things, they didn't ask.
They knew since they were young that the eldest sister had an idea, and it was always right to listen to her, and she trusted her elder sister unconditionally.
Huang Yiyun walked towards other houses in this village.
I picked up all the wooden basins, barrels and grooves in these houses from the house and placed them at the door. Later, I asked the second and third sisters to move them back to the kang room where I was interested in planting greenhouse vegetables.
Fortunately, after fleeing the famine, the villagers in this village took all the things they could take with them, and they threw them aside the things they couldn't take with them.
The most common things are wooden tubs, wooden barrels, wooden cabinets and boxes.
These things are heavy and heavy, and it is useless to carry them on the way to escape famine. However, Huang Yiyun found many wooden barrels, wooden basins and pigpens in every household, and troughs for pig food.
These are just right for filling soil and growing greenhouse vegetables.
As for the seeds, Xuanqing was not worried that he would not be able to find them.
When the season comes, vegetable seeds farmers will set aside the seeds for planting every year, and the selected seeds are excellent and selected.
Of course, it goes without saying that the leaves of corn, potatoes and sweet potatoes were all eaten as early as the time of famine.
Huang Yiyun found a lot of seeds in every household.
Huang Yiyun could only barely recognize two or three seeds.
But, after watching these seeds shrivel, without shine or moisture.
Huang Yiyun was a little nervous and didn't know whether these seeds could be planted.
"Sister, we have been working hard for a day. What are the uses for doing these?" The second sister and the other sister moved the wooden basin and barrels selected by Huang Yiyun into the room where the kang was burned, and placed them according to Huang Yiyun's instructions. The second sister asked in confusion.
The third sister also looked at her elder sister in question.
"You will know in two days. If this matter is done, we don't have to go hungry every day and save food to live." Huang Yiyun said mysteriously to the second and third sisters.
"Really." The second and third sisters lit up when they heard their elder sister's words and looked at Huang Yiyun shinyly.
Huang Yiyun saw the second and third sisters, thin and black, and looked two or three years younger than the same age.
He is thin and looks better than skinny, but his eyes are shining with light, and he has never given up or been disappointed in life.
Huang Yiyun was a little sad, nodded to the second and third sisters, and said solemnly, "Really, my elder sister will let you have enough food and wear warm clothes in the future, so you won't have to go hungry in the future."
