Li Qingxiu stirred the bottom of the pot to prevent it from sticking. Then he asked: "Aunts, what's the matter?"

Xiao Chen took out the needle in her hand. "I'm here to prick the blisters on the soles of your feet."

When Li Qingxiu looked at Xiao Chen's appearance, she recalled a scene in a modern costume drama where a certain grandmother pricked a certain princess with a needle, and she couldn't help but shudder.

She quickly waved her hand and said, "No need, Second Aunt, I'm wearing newly bought cloth shoes, so I don't have blisters on my feet."

Qingfeng Li also nodded in agreement: "I also wear cloth shoes, and I don't have blisters." After saying this, he didn't forget to stretch out his little feet.

He just saw his second aunt pricking the blisters on Brother Yuhao's feet. Brother Yuhao was so painful that he grinned and cried.

When Xiao Chen heard this, she saw that Li Qingxiu and her sister were indeed wearing a pair of beautiful cloth shoes. She then put away the needle with some disappointment. In fact, she really liked pricking blisters on the soles of people's feet. Pricking one made her feel very comfortable.

Da Chen said: "Fortunately, you bought these cloth shoes to avoid this crime. I also want to say that I brought the medicine and I will give you some medicine after she finishes pricking you. This will save you money."

Li Qingxiu looked at Li Xiaocao, who was crying in pain not far away. Her feet had been wrapped in cloth strips, and it looked like they had been treated with medicine.

When Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Chen went back, the noodles in the small iron pot started bubbling, and then the two siblings started to eat.

Qingfeng Li's eyes lit up when he tasted the meat. But he was reluctant to take a second bite and put the small bite of meat into Li Qingxiu's bowl.

"Sister, you have worked hard all day, so you need to eat more meat."

Li Qingxiu put the meat back into Qingfeng Li's bowl: "You can eat it yourself. I have some in my bowl. If you don't eat meat, you won't be able to grow up and you won't be able to protect my sister and sister."

The little baby sleeping next to him seemed to be echoing Li Qingxiu's words, his pink little mouth kept babbling.

Qingfeng Li started to eat heavily. The one thing he longed for most was to grow up quickly so that he could protect his elder sister and younger sister.

Li Qingli arrived late and was too slow to grab the others. It took me a long time to find two old wild shepherd's purses.

When she passed Li Qingxiu carrying an empty basket, she couldn't help but glance at the two siblings who were eating gnocchi.

Li Qingxiu also looked over, and the two of them happened to meet each other's eyes. Li Qingxiu also deliberately took a piece of fat and thin meat and stuffed it into his mouth, showing a very satisfied look.

Li Qingli stomped her foot angrily and ran back to her home camp with a sigh.

When Mrs. Li saw that there were only two old wild vegetables in the basket, she said angrily: "You can't do anything, you can't eat anything! You still want to eat meat like this?"

Li Qingli was also very angry when she was told that. She pouted and complained: "Huh! Why doesn't Li Qingxiu do anything? She eats both meat and white dough."

Just this small piece of bacon with black dough batter Li Yuanbao, when I heard Li Qingxiu eat meat and white dough dumplings. I felt like I couldn't eat the black batter in the bowl, and my little head was still looking around to see where Li Qingxiu was?

When Li Yaozu saw this, he frowned and said, "What? Do you want to be beaten by her again?"

Li Yuanbao's head shrank when he thought of the pain when he was beaten, but he wanted to eat white noodles again. He shouted to Mrs. Li: "Nai, I also want to eat gnocchi, and the white one also has bacon."

Mrs. Liu said nothing, if Mrs. Li is willing to make noodles for her son. She didn't think it was anything, and she could probably drink some soup.

Mrs. Li, who was in charge of the family's financial affairs, stared. "If you want to eat, go to Li Qingxiu's to eat. The family won't cook it for you. It's good to have bacon every day."

After speaking, he looked at Li Qingli again. "Or do you also want to split up like Li Qingxiu? Then I won't care what kind of meat you want to eat."

When Li Qingli heard this, she turned off the fire, scooped up a bowl of black batter and ate it with pickles.

But I kept thinking about what Mrs. Li just said, if I lived alone, would my life be better than now?

At this time, almost every household can have dinner, and almost half of them eat a sumptuous meal, the most common of which is stewed chicken, duck and goose.

These are all home-raised poultry. I killed them when I was packing my luggage before fleeing the famine. I kept them for a day yesterday and couldn’t bear to eat them. If I don’t eat them today, they will go bad.

So tonight most people are stewing eggplant meat, and the children are so happy that they are running around the iron pot on their backs like they are celebrating the New Year.

"Oh~ I'm eating meat! I have chicken legs to eat!"

But the families without water looked miserable. They couldn't borrow water, and everyone said they didn't have enough water at home.

I should have known better not to drink so much during the day, but I was really thirsty at that time. If I don't drink, I feel like I'm going to faint from heatstroke.

But now they were really worried about how they could survive without water. Several people who had no water sat together to discuss for a while, and then they all went to find Li Zheng.

Li Zheng, who was preparing to have dinner, heard these families explain their intentions, and he frowned. "I'm worried about this too. I'm running out of water at home, and I have to save water for the cows."

Next to the Li Zheng family camp is the family of Orion Li Lei. Li Lei, who was eating roast duck, stood up and expressed his thoughts. "Uncle Li Zheng, I see there is a big mountain ahead. How about we hide there for a few days tomorrow, and then we can look for water."

Li Xuan also thinks Li Lei's idea is a good one. Then he nodded in agreement: "Dad, I think it's feasible."

Li Zheng thought for a moment and sighed: "Oh, that's the only way to go. This is also an impossible solution. Let's go there tomorrow and have a look. It's good to find a water source. If you can't find it, there's nothing I can do. "

As soon as the news spread, everyone was actually quite happy. Not only could they rest for a few days, but they could also find water sources. Now every household actually didn't have much water, and they could only last a few days at most.

Brother and sister Li Qingxiu packed up their things after eating. Then we went to the team of Li Dazhuang and Li Erzhuang. The three of them blocked the two oxcarts and small carts on the outside. Inside were important grains and sleeping places for their family members.

Li Dazhuang asked Li Qingxiu, his three siblings, and his children to sleep in the innermost room.

Li Dazhuang and Li Erzhuang each took their eldest sons and divided them into two teams. One pair watched for half the night and the other half of the night.

Li Qingxiu directly laid out the oilcloth, and after feeding the baby, she lay down and fell asleep within two seconds, even snoring.

The baby was not asleep yet. She was babbling at Li Qingxiu and she didn't know what she was talking about. But after seeing Li Qingxiu ignoring her for a long time, her little mouth shrank and she was about to cry.

Qingfeng Li was afraid that she would wake up Qingxiu Li, so he quickly picked her up and coaxed her: "Sister, be good, don't disturb sister. Sister has worked very hard during the day, let her have a good sleep."

The baby was picked up by Qingfeng Li, just enough to see the burning fire not far away. The baby's attention is immediately attracted.
