Bind the system and take your younger siblings to survive in the disaster years

That's the way people are, as long as someone takes the lead, those who waver will follow. The most important thing is that there is a saying that impressed them, that is, even if the leeks cannot be sold, they can still be eaten as food.

More and more people followed suit and said they wanted to participate. Li Zheng felt relieved when he saw this. He was really afraid that if these people started to make trouble and were unwilling to plant leeks, it would chill Li Qingxiu's heart.

Li Zheng looked at Li Qingxiu and said lovingly: "Qingxiu girl, since everyone is willing to participate, then these leek seeds..."

Li Qingxiu understood what Li Zheng meant. She took out a bag of chive seeds and placed it on the table in front of Li Zheng.

"Uncle Li Zheng, people's hearts are unpredictable. We don't want a family to just sign a representative. I think as long as one person participates, the whole family should write their names and fingerprints. I don't want someone to say that he didn't sign or sign." statement."

Li Zheng had no objection. He also felt that Li Qingxiu's idea was safer. If the insurance was not fully guaranteed, some people would really do this.

But he still asked everyone: "If you have no objection, let's get started."

Naturally, everyone didn't dare to say anything, since they wouldn't betray Lihua Valley anyway, so Li Qingxiu could do whatever he said.

Little Chen suddenly remembered her children and asked Li Qingxiu: "Qingxiu girl, do the children need to have their fingerprints pressed? The children are still in the cellar and haven't come out yet."

Except for Mrs. Chen, Widow Jia and Zhao Cuihua, the other women with children or half-grown children all rolled their eyes at Mrs. Chen.

It seems like you can, right? Li Qingxiu didn't even think of it, so you had to come out and help her make up for it, even though they would not do such heartless things.

But the feeling of being pinched is somewhat uncomfortable. How can I describe that feeling? It's a bit like being sold into slavery.

Li Qingxiu thought for a while and said, "Then also write your name and have your parents sign it on their behalf."

Li Zheng patted Li Xuan beside him and asked him to take out a pen and paper to sign and fingerprint everyone.

So everyone started queuing up in an orderly manner, with Li Xuan in charge of writing names and they in charge of pressing fingerprints.

The Li Zheng family took the lead and was the first to write. After he finished, he walked up to Li Qingxiu and asked, "Qingxiu girl, how do you plant these leek seeds?"

Li Qingxiu said that chive seeds are related to chive seeds and the planting methods are the same. However, chive seeds can only be planted in cellars. He also said that chive seeds cannot survive in fields.

Anyway, Li Qingxiu wouldn't say that these are leek seeds. Just cover them from the sun when planting.

Li Zheng smiled: "That's easy to do. I thought it would be difficult to plant. Don't you have a special seed? When will you start planting?"

The special seeds Li Zheng mentioned are peppers. But Li Qingxiu still had more than half of the peppers to process. Wait until she goes back to make a chili sauce, get out the chili seeds and try to grow a batch.

Li Qingxiu said: "No rush, let's plant the leeks first. I have a vacant cellar at home. You can arrange for a few people to plant leeks in my cellar tomorrow."

Before Li Zheng could say anything, Mrs. Chen and Widow Jia rushed to say that their family wanted to help Li Qingxiu grow leeks, so Li Zheng didn't need to arrange anyone.

Li Zheng thought it was okay and told them not to delay cooking.

Li Datian, who had deposited the painting, came over and said to Li Zheng: "Li Zheng, our lamp oil is almost running out, what should we do?"

Li Zheng, who originally had a smile on his face, lowered his lips when he heard this. He said helplessly: "My lamp oil has been used up a long time ago, and now I have to light a fire at the entrance of the cellar."

Li Datian frowned and said: "But I burn firewood every day, and the firewood is not easy to burn. I have to go up the mountain to chop firewood from time to time. I really don't want to go up the mountain to chop firewood in this weather."

Li Datian was unwilling to burn dry wood in the cellar. Because the cellar itself is not ventilated, the smoke from burning firewood fills the entire cellar and makes the eyes hurt.

So I could only choose to burn firewood at the entrance of the cellar. It would be a little warmer, but the smoke would still make people uncomfortable.

The three of them had no children, so they didn't need to burn firewood as long as they covered themselves with a thick quilt. However, the cellar was very dark without light all day long, so lamp oil was another problem.

Li Zheng reluctantly said that it wasn't that he didn't want to solve the problem, but that he actually didn't know how to solve it. His own home was heated by smoke every day.

Li Zheng and Li Datian couldn't help but move their eyes to Li Qingxiu's face. They knew that Li Qingxiu would definitely have a solution.

Li Qingxiu felt that this was not a problem. If it were still autumn, Li Qingxiu would ask them to go find pine trees to cut pine oil. But now it's freezing and snowy, so the pine oil probably won't flow out.

Another way is to use fish oil to make fish oil lamps. Li Qingxiu thought that everyone had eaten a lot of fish recently, and Widow Jia always fried the fish before making fish soup or stewing the fish, so a lot of fish oil was left. This fish oil can be used to make lamp oil.

Seeing the expectant looks in Li Zheng and Li Datian's eyes, Li Qingxiu kindly told them about the fish oil method.

But Widow Jia disapproved. "How can that work? The fish oil is very fishy. They don't like to eat it when cooking. They always say it has a strong fishy smell. If the fish oil is used to make lamp oil, the whole cellar will be smoked and fish will be everywhere. It smells fishy."

Li Zheng and Li Datian also nodded when they heard this. It doesn't matter whether it's fishy or not. The most important thing is that the fish oil is a bit unpleasant to eat, but it's still edible. They don't have much oil to eat, so how can they waste it like this?

Li Qingxiu smiled slightly: "You can add some vinegar and wine to the lamp oil, so that there will be no smell."

Some people who had done their fingerprints saw Li Datian and Li Zheng chatting around Li Qingxiu, and they also stayed to watch. What were they talking about?

Everyone was surprised when they heard Li Qingxiu talking about adding vinegar and wine to fish oil to make fish oil lamps.

Chen Guangliang, who was half-listening, knocked on the empty cigarette rod and asked: "Old man, in all my years of living, this is the first time I heard about using fish oil to make lamp oil. But why are vinegar and wine added to the fish oil?"

Chen Guangliang's family had little sense of existence after Zhou Xinghua disappeared. They worked hard to complete the tasks assigned by Li Zheng every day, and returned to their homes to rest after the work was completed. Except for the two sons-in-law, Li Dazhuang and Li Erzhuang, they have little contact with other families.

In particular, Chen Wen became much thinner and haggard. After all, she was his wife and the mother of his two children. They really couldn't accept it when they suddenly disappeared.

After searching for several days without finding Zhou Xinghua, Chen Wen gradually stopped looking. He must have been kidnapped by a passing refugee when Zhou Xinghua went to pick wild vegetables.

Mrs. Lin, the mother-in-law of the eldest and oldest Chen family, has recently been looking for a new wife for her son Luo. Even though Chen Wen and her two grandsons disagreed, Mrs. Lin did not give up the idea.
