    Because she was tired for a day, Xinhu made dinner very simple. She cut a few pieces of fatty bacon like Mrs. Liu did in the morning, fried a large pot of cabbage, and then used boiling water to make a bowl of rice cereal for everyone. She was too lazy to  Let¡¯s cook porridge and rice again.  The workload at the end of the day is really not small. Now my back is sore and my arms are so sore that I can hardly lift them.

    This rice cereal is not as good as what Dalang brought before, but it is only half of the whole grains, so Dabao can barely eat it.  It's just that it's a bit rarer than those of the three older children.  And I haven¡¯t had this kind of rice paste in a while, but everyone still enjoyed it. Besides, there was also stir-fried cabbage with meat, and each person could get three or four pieces of meat.

    "I've been eating really well these days. I'm full and there's still meat. It's just like the Chinese New Year." Ping'er bit into a piece of meat and said with a smile.

    ¡°His family is poor, with few people working and many people eating. It¡¯s good to be half full all year round, but don¡¯t even think about eating meat.  In the past, it was really rare for him to see the smell of meat, and he could only eat half full of whole grains and rice at most. Throughout the year, on the New Year's Day, he could eat as full and well as he does now.  Moreover, after eating that meal, I would eat worse and worse in the next few days.  Basically, in spring, I eat wild vegetable porridge to satisfy my hunger. The grains in the porridge can be counted clearly.  Therefore, his sigh was sincere.

    Dalang and Dabao obviously don¡¯t think that this extremely simple meal is like a New Year¡¯s meal, but Dabao is too young to say such a thing, and he is chewing meat hard at the moment.  Dalang understood and didn't say anything, just as focused on eating his own meal.  Only Xin Hu, after hearing this, stared at Da Lang with his eyes wide open, feeling unhappy for a while.  This kind of meal has become a Chinese New Year meal. If it goes on for a long time, she feels that she will definitely not be able to bear it.

    "This is a simple meal, lacking in oil and salt, without a real meal of dry rice and rice porridge. It's okay to eat it for a few days now and then, but it's okay to eat it every day, every month, every year. How can I bear it?"  If it weren't for the living habits that the original body had retained, the original life would probably not be much better than Ping'er's previous life. Therefore, Xinhu didn't find this kind of food too unpalatable to eat, but now that it's been a long time, the original body has left behind  The impact has disappeared, but she understands that in this state, if she doesn't eat, she will only be hungry, so she still reluctantly accepts it.

    However, she was not sure that she could survive eating this kind of food every day for many years.  It is very likely that she will be like Dabao and have to leave fine food to her alone.  What's more, she is still a real foodie. She used to have three dishes for every meal, but now she has reached the point where she can't even eat rice. This kind of life is simply killing her.  Fortunately, she only picked up this body. If she had come here on her own, she might not be able to survive for a few days.

    "Why are you staring at me?" Dalang asked in confusion.  Although he was eating well, he couldn't understand why Xin Hu was staring at him with such a bitter and resentful look.

    In the past few days, because of the bacon given by Aunt Liu, plus the dry food and meat for the three men he brought back from there, their meat actually has thirty or forty kilograms in stock.  In every meal, a few more pieces of meat are added than before, which makes the food richer and more delicious, and everyone eats more deliciously.

    "Didn't you say that there is meat to eat?" Xin Hu accused.

    However, as soon as the words came out of her mouth, she blushed.  This person is still a little kid. How can she really be responsible for ensuring that she has meat every day and lives a good life? However, she can't take it back even if she says it out loud, so she has to pretend not to understand.

    Dalang was stunned for a moment, his face turned red, he coughed twice, and then said: "We have to get through this winter first. With this weather and this time, it would be nice to have a full stomach."

    Hearing this, Xin Hu felt even more embarrassed and wished he could lose his face to the Pacific Ocean.  She picked a piece of meat from the bowl to Dabao and said, "Eat, I'm just complaining."

    "Sister." Dabao just finished eating his own meat. When he saw the eldest sister gave him another piece of meat, he smiled at Xin Hu.

    ??This child¡¯s original life was to have meat to eat every day, and he lived a very rich life. Even when he had a meal, he was coaxed by the nanny and others.  After following Dalang and the others, they lived a life of hunger and satiety, and this meat was a rare and delicious thing to eat.  Therefore, this extra piece of meat made him involuntarily show a flattering smile to Xin Hu.

    "However, Dabao is also very well-behaved and won't clamor for meat. He will eat whatever Xinhu gives him.  Because he also understands that everyone¡¯s food is not good.  There are good things to eat at home.  If you don't eat, you will only starve. It must be said that this child is very adaptable.  Therefore, the three eldest children loved Dabao very much.  Try to get him to eat as well as possible.

    Dabao¡¯s smile made Xinhu and Dalang even more uncomfortable, but the conditions are so bad now, no matter how powerful Dalang is,We can only live like this, which is better than letting everyone starve to death.  To be honest, he didn't quite know how long the winter here was, and how long they would have to endure before they could truly live a stable life. Although he had a lot of banknotes on him, right now he was just a man who could buy anything even if he had money.  When you don¡¯t have anything.

    Ping'er couldn't understand why his words made the scene become weird.  But he was also very sensitive. When he sensed something was wrong in the atmosphere, he didn't dare to make a sound and even lowered his chewing sound.  Only the young Dabao was still biting the meat without realizing it.

    It was originally a meal that everyone thought was very good, but in the end it ended up like this. Xin Hu felt very guilty. After everyone finished eating, Ping'er took Dabao to bed first.  She was alone in the kitchen, washing dishes and chopsticks. The more she thought about it, the sadder she became, and she couldn't help but cry.

    She was very dissatisfied with her current life. She usually didn't feel it even if she didn't want to. Now think about it carefully, in this place, she has to work non-stop without having enough to eat or wear warm clothes. She has to kill someone when she goes out, or else she has to be killed.  It¡¯s such a hard life to live like this when others are killed.  And the pressure of this kind of life made her miserable and embarrassed. Even to solve her food and clothing problem, she still relied on Dalang.  If she had been on her own, she might have died of hunger and cold.

    Dalang finished washing and came back to see her crying. He sighed and said, "Stop crying, finish washing quickly and go to bed. It's been a tiring day today, so sleep more tomorrow morning."

    Hearing his comfort, Xin Hu felt even more uncomfortable. The tears kept rolling down as if they were free, and finally he started crying all over.

    "Okay, okay, in a few days, we will ask Aunt Liu to go to the mountain to see if we can bring back some wild animals to give everyone extra meals. We really need to prepare some meat at home." Dalang was a little annoyed.  He grabbed a few handfuls of hair and said awkwardly.

    He also wants to eat meat. He is eager to eat a big bowl of meat. Sometimes, in his sleep, he dreams about eating meat.  It was just when he was growing tall that he usually did a lot of work, and he also had to do all kinds of calculations, which consumed a lot of money.  Two meals a day was really not enough, but he didn't dare to let Xin Hu cook as much as he wanted.

    Because the reality is so cruel, right now, even the stomach can only be half full.  There are two meals a day, either vegetable porridge or lotus root soup.  If it weren't for the extra bacon and oil in the stomach, life would be even more miserable.  If we can bring back some wild animals and eat more meat every meal, the food gap will be smaller. After all, without oil and water, we will have more food and we will get hungry faster.  Eating a few more pieces of meat is worth eating an extra bowl of vegetable porridge.

    "Oh, I'm not blaming you. I'm just complaining. In fact, the food has been much better these days, and there is meat in the bowl. But when I think about it, we only have four children. When are these days so big?  "

    Xinhu finished crying and venting, and his mood calmed down.  Now that I'm here, what else can I do, other than trying to live a better life, it's death.  She still didn't want to die, so she had to work hard to improve her living conditions.  However, she is really worried about how she will live her life.

    After all, of the four children, she and Da Lang are the only two who can be used as adults. Na Ping'er is a real child, only six years old. He can help carry Dabao, collect firewood, and clean the house, which is already very good.  .  She couldn't enslave such a young child and follow her and Da Lang to the fields to do heavy farm work.  In fact, when she thought about it again, Dalang was also a half-grown child and wanted to do the same thing, which made her blush even more.

    No matter how mature Dalang is, she is still a child. She is an adult with an adult heart, but she still has to rely on others. It is outrageous that she loses her temper at others just to eat.  Xin Hu kept scolding himself, wishing he could slap himself several times.  It was so embarrassing. If other people found out about this, she would not dare to see anyone.

    "Don't be afraid, life will get better. When the spring comes and the world becomes stable, we can go out to buy food and meat. We will live a good life in the future. I won't let you go hungry every day." Dalang  Said with confidence.

    "Okay. I believe you." Xin Hu said movedly.

    "Well, let's go, go to bed." Dalang smiled when he saw her turning the corner, turned around and went back to the room, stroking her stiff face.  In order to appease Xin Hu, he said all the good things he could say in his entire life.  Fortunately, this woman is easy to coax. If Xin Hu continues to cry, he doesn't know what to do?

    At night, Dalang looked at Xin Hu next to him and fell asleep as soon as he got on the kang. He shook his head involuntarily. He was the only one who was worried about his life.  He is still thinking about how to go hunting. He is just a child now. Although he can do some kung fu and is stronger than other children of the same age, he is not very skilled in bow and arrow shooting yet.  He only has a slingshot in his hand, which he usually plays with. This is not enough for hunting.

    Although Xinhu has strange strength, he doesn¡¯t know how to shoot an arrow. Is it possible to hit the prey with stones?  Although Aunt Liu is good at martial arts, she only uses a whip. She probably doesn't know how to use a bow and arrow. Hunting with a whip obviously won't work either.

    The more he thought about it, the more headache he got. Looking at the woman next to him who only had problems but didn't care at all, he felt angry.

    ¡°I thought about it over and over again for a long time, until I couldn¡¯t resist the fatigue anymore, Dalang sighed and decided to discuss it with Aunt Liu tomorrow before making any plans.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)nbsp;Although Xinhu has strange strength, he doesn¡¯t know how to shoot arrows at all.
