Traveling through the famine years with the system to raise cubs

Chapter 37 Failed the first time?



"Yaojie, why are you still up so late?" Under the dim moonlight, Jiang Ling found someone looking around at the door of her house, and when she approached, it was Jiang Yaojie.

"Mom, I'm worried about you, but I don't dare to go to the back mountain. I'm afraid of causing trouble for you, so I just wait for you at the door of the house." It was very dark, but Jiang Yaojie's eyes were bright.

Feeling warmth in Jiang Ling's heart, she gently raised the corner of her mouth and said, "Let's go, let's go in, it happens that you are not asleep, there is something mother wants to talk to you about."

In the old house, the mother and son sat on the ground. Two days after digging the ditch, Jiang Ling clearly felt that Jiang Yaojie had changed. Both his body shape and his confidence in speaking were better than the previous submissive him.

Seeing Jiang Yaojie's changes, Jiang Ling also felt relieved.

"Yaojie, do you remember the last time I accompanied my mother to Changning Town and heard the aunts talking about Li Shan's family in the bullock cart?" Jiang Ling asked.

Jiang Yaojie nodded, and Jiang Ling continued to ask: "This time, our village discovered a water source, which is basically the same concept as the robbery of Li Shan's granary."

Jiang Yaojie was dumbfounded, and looked at Jiang Ling with a puzzled expression.

Jiang Ling continued to explain: "Every family doesn't have a lot of surplus food, but Li Shan's family has food, and every village is drought, but our village has enough water now..."

"Mom! Mom, you mean we are too obvious?" Jiang Yaojie rubbed his head and said.

Jiang Ling nodded and continued to guide and said: "Yes, Li Shan's family was stolen in time because they had servants. Where did peasants like us get servants? If Mother hadn't discovered it in time this time, maybe it would have happened." It won't go so well."

"Yes... yes..." Jiang Yaojie scratched his head and frowned and began to think.

After a while, did Jiang Yaojie seem to think of something? He suddenly looked up at Jiang Ling and said, "Mother, although there are no servants in our village, there are people in our village, and every household sends a male to form a patrol team. Going to patrol the mountain for an hour, I think it will reduce the probability of this kind of thing from happening."

Jiang Ling nodded with satisfaction, and continued to Jiang Yaojie: "Yaojie, very good, mother thinks your idea is very good, tomorrow we will go to the village chief's grandfather's house, and then you will tell him about this idea."

"Mother...I..." Jiang Yaojie faltered and rubbed his clothes again.

"Yaojie, be more confident. Didn't the ditch work also succeed?" Jiang Ling comforted.

"But...mother...then...that's your idea!" Jiang Yaojie really couldn't figure out how it was his mother's idea to dig the ditches.

"Yaojie, we are all one family, so why should we care who thinks? It's late and go to rest!" Jiang Ling went back to the house alone without waiting for Jiang Yaojie to say anything.

Jiang Ling came to the kitchen, cleaned the mint and chopped it into fine pieces with a knife, then went to the system mall to secretly buy some white sugar, boiled the water with fire, threw mint mint and white sugar into it, and covered the pot Start to simmer on low heat.

Ten minutes later, Jiang Ling opened the lid of the pot, carefully put the boiled mint water in a bowl, chose a shady place to put it in, and tiptoed back to the room by herself, sleeping next to her two daughters.

The sun slowly dispelled the dark sky, and everything on the ground was covered with an orange halo.

The cock stood on the fence and let out a loud and clear cry.

Jiang Ling lay on the bed and covered her ears before going back to sleep for a while. When she was half asleep, Jiang Ling felt someone calling her around. She just opened her eyes slowly and met four pairs of caring eyes.

"Mom, are you awake? Get up quickly, the village chief's grandpa is ringing the bell at the door again!" Jiang Suihe said.

"Ah~ I'm so sleepy!" Jiang Ling yawned big and his eyelids were still very heavy.

Amidst the chirping voices of the children, Jiang Ling reluctantly sat up from the bed, washed up briefly, and walked out of the house with the four children.

Along the way, the eyes of the people around were all on Nian Ci, who was held in Jiang Ling's arms, whispering and pointing. Nian Ci had never seen such a big battle, and she had long been hiding in Jiang Ling's arms and shivering Trembling, Jiang Ling stopped angrily, swept around, grabbed a woman who spoke the loudest, and said, "Is there anything you can't say in front of me, and say behind my back that I'm not afraid of rotten tongue?"

Although the woman looked displeased, she could only keep her mouth shut due to Jiang Ling's recent reputation and status in Lujia Village.

Jiang Ling glanced at the crowd coldly and said: "If you have something to say, say it in front of me, what's the point of whispering in private?"

After all, Jiang Ling brought the four children to the entrance of the village.

As Jiang Ling expected, the two guys caught last night were tied tightly with ropes, their heads drooping, looking hopeless.

"Mr. Jiang, come here!" The village chief waved his hand when he spotted Jiang Ling in the crowd.

Just as Jiang Ling walked up to the village chief, the village chief knocked on the copper bell hanging on the tree again and said, "These two guys tried to poison our water source last night!"

There was an uproar all around, everyone looked angry and looked at the two people who were tied up with righteous indignation.

"Kill them!"

"Bah! Shameless guy!"

"Village chief, let's go to Dahua Village to ask for an explanation!"

"Yes! Village Chief, let's take these two guys to Changning Town now and let the county magistrate make the decision for us!"

The angry voice became louder and louder. If the village chief hadn't stood around those two guys, the people of Lujia Village would have been unable to restrain themselves from attacking them.

"Quiet! Be quiet!" The village chief waved his hands and tried hard to maintain order.

"Now, let's go to Dahua Village to ask for an explanation! You, you, you, and you, just follow me, and the rest of you should stay in Lujia Village! If you let me know who secretly Go to Dahua Village to make trouble! Don't blame my family for not taking care of you!" The village chief said, pointing to a few strong men in the crowd.

The names called by the village chief were all those who participated in the arrest last night, and the rest were the village chief's two sons.

Although the expressions of the people were a little disappointed, due to the authority of the village chief and the deterrent power of the words "serving the family law", they could only watch the village chief and his party disappear at the entrance of the village.

Jiang Ling yawned and took the four children back to her home. In the morning, she simply made vegetable noodles, and the four children ate happily. Mysteriously brought yesterday's mint water to the table.

"Mother, what is this?" Jiang Wenxi asked curiously, looking at the mint water in front of him.

"Taste the water made from "spicy grass"!" Jiang Ling filled four bowls of mint water with anticipation, and placed them in front of the four children.

Jiang Wenxi was the first to serve the bowl, but she vomited it all up as soon as she took a sip. While vomiting, she muttered: "Bitter! Mom! It's so bitter! It's so bitter!"

"Bitter?" Jiang Ling frowned and looked at Jiang Wenxi in confusion.

There was another "poof", and Jiang Suhe also spit out all the mint water he drank just now.

Next came Nianci, Jiang Yaojie was fine, he swallowed it reluctantly, but his complexion became very ugly.

"Is...is it so bad?" Jiang Ling looked at the four children with different expressions and poured himself a bowl full of doubts.
