She was robbed by the leader of the family and had three children.

Chapter 444 The house leaks and it rains all night

When it rains, it pours. This is probably what is happening now.

Originally, everyone thought that the temperature had risen and spring had returned to the earth.

Everyone can build houses and reclaim land in an orderly manner!

The seeds are ready, just waiting to be planted!

result!

It snowed again that night!

Everyone was sleeping, and suddenly I felt so cold!

As soon as they were woken up by the cold, they heard hurried and chaotic footsteps outside.

After a while, Huo Yisheng's voice rang out from Ye Shu's side: "Shushu? Are you awake? Hurry up and get up! It's snowing! Hurry and pack up your things!!"

Except for the children, Ye Shu and the others all woke up with a start.

While Ye Shu was getting dressed, he asked across the tent, "Why is it snowing all of a sudden? What are we going to do now?"

Huo Yisheng: "Deepen the dugout and combine the tents to increase warmth."

There is a big tent in the middle, which is used for making fire and cooking. There are four tents connected to the four sides for people to live in. These four tents can be connected to each other, just like tentacles that can be extended.

Each tentacle was in a burrow, which was a little deeper than before.

The tents in the camp were originally scattered, but now they have been combined and the female comrades have formed a unit.

The soldiers formed several more units, and each unit was as close to each other as possible.

If you light one or two fires between the tentacles, all the surrounding tents will be warm!

Fortunately, there were many people and the situation changed quickly. As soon as dawn broke, the tents were tidied up again.

This was also a helpless move, because no one expected that it would suddenly snow heavily even though spring had returned.

Political Commissar Lin took people to ask Zong Hui.

Zong Hui: "This kind of climate is unique to the wilderness. I heard from the older generation that every few years there's snow in the spring, and once it starts snowing, it won't stop for at least ten days or half a month."

"Also, if it snows this year, winter will come earlier."

"For example, in the past, winter started with snow in October, but this year it might snow in mid-September."

Therefore, after Huo Yisheng discussed with Political Commissar Lin and others, they immediately decided to change the way of camping to keep warm as much as possible.

Political Commissar Lin was worried: "Putting aside the current difficulties in building houses, there is another key issue: snow returned at the beginning of spring this year, and winter will come early. Our grain planting will definitely be affected!"

Winter came before the crops had time to grow, and the year was ruined!

Lao Ren: "That's easy. Just change the crops. Rice has a long growing cycle, so we won't plant it anymore. I don't think much rice can grow here anyway. Let's just switch to wheat and sorghum. Corn is fine, and we can plant some potatoes. Sweet potatoes are frost-resistant, so we can plant some too!"

Originally, people planted rice because they thought that the price of rice was high, so they could sell it after harvesting and then exchange it for cheaper wheat, so that they could have more food.

Political Commissar Lin nodded repeatedly after hearing this: "You are an expert in this area. What you said makes sense. I will listen to you!"

Let’s talk about the female comrades. After packing up the tent, they saw that it was snowing heavily outside and they couldn’t go out to explore the land. So they simply cooked some porridge and went back to sleep while their bodies were warm.

The tent in the middle has five sides, four of which are connected to other people's tents. One of the sides is movable, which is equivalent to a door.

With this, everyone can eat from the same pot again.

However, this way, privacy is extremely high. The small tent unit for their families is almost completely surrounded by the tent unit for the soldiers. Last night they were still worried that the two men inside the wall had bad intentions, but now they can breathe a sigh of relief.

At least when you sleep and rest, you don’t have to worry.

The three little ones ate rice porridge and salted melon in the morning, and they smacked their lips, clearly showing that they were not full.

They were all growing up, and Ye Shu couldn't bear to let them go hungry, so he asked, "Can I make you some more malted milk?"

The three little ones shook their heads.

He made a painful expression, covered his stomach, and said, "I'm full."

It's not that you're too full, it's that you're too drunk.

Because today's big pot of porridge was not cooked by Ye Shu or Zhuang Jingjing's wife Jin, there was very little rice and it was mostly water, so the little kids basically just drank the water to fill themselves up.

Well, this is the inconvenience of eating from the same pot.

At this moment, Han Cheng ran over with two pheasant eggs in his hands: "Auntie, cook these for my younger brothers and sisters!"

Ye Shu was surprised and smiled. She took the egg from his hand and took out three eggs from her own basket. "Okay, I'll go cook them and you can eat together later."

These pheasant eggs are picked up by the children themselves, and almost every family has them.

Seeing this, Mrs. Jin and Zhuang Jingjing also took out a few each.

Eggs are a rare commodity these days.

Although they could eat meat every day after arriving in the wilderness, and even caught a lot of fish yesterday, so they didn't have to worry about food, the idea of frugality was engraved in everyone's bones.

Otherwise, the rice porridge wouldn't be so thin this morning. For others, that would be normal.

But for the three families on Ye Shu's side, it is indeed a bit difficult.

Especially the three little ones, they have never eaten such watery porridge except drinking milk!

Back to these pheasant eggs, if you only boil three or four of them, they won’t be too eye-catching.

But if three families cook ten or so, it will attract attention.

Even though everyone is living in harmony now, once things start to be compared, conflicts are bound to arise.

To avoid unnecessary trouble, Ye Shu took out a large bowl and cracked five eggs into it. "Let's steam the eggs. They're warm and tender. The children can share them and it'll be easier to digest."

It's actually just an excuse.

When the eggs are beaten into a bowl, you can't see how many there are, so it's not so conspicuous.

Both Jin Saozi and Zhuang Jingjing understood what she meant and said nothing more. Jin Saozi took the initiative to take the job: "I'll go steam it."

She has a hot-tempered personality and even if someone says something to her, she can still retort.

After the children had shared the eggs, the adults took off their cotton-padded clothes, filled a few more bottles with hot salt water, lowered the tent curtains, and went to sleep.

Snow is falling and the world is quiet.

When I woke up again, the ground, which had originally shown a hint of green, suddenly turned white again.

The weather is not good and everyone is worried.

Huo Yisheng took people to the mountains to hunt and brought down two more wild boars in case the snow really didn't stop falling.

If there is food, everyone won’t be too panicked.

Ye Shu said: "I will go to the river again and bring back more fish. It's cold now, and they will freeze if I throw them outside."

Huo Yisheng: "Alright, I'll arrange a few people for you."

Ye Shu did not refuse. After all, with so many fish, someone would definitely need to get them ashore and bring them back.

Mrs. Jin also said: "I will go with you and watch the tent for you."

Zhuang Jingjing stayed to look after the children.
