Natural disasters in books: I stockpiled goods to escape famine in ancient times

In a blink of an eye, it was the day that Wu Dahai had agreed to go into the mountains. Before dawn, Zhang Wu led Huang Ying to the door of Song Shiwei's house. On his chest hung a bag of medium size, which contained a thin shirt and a few cakes.

The person who opened the door for the two people was Feng Ru. The little girl got up early every day to exercise, so she was just in time to open the door for the two people.

"If I don't come at night, you can sleep with Ru'er. If I come back, I will pick you up then."

Huang Ying stood at the door and nodded, with worry in her eyes: "Be careful, I'll wait for you to come back home."

Zhang Wu smiled and said, "Okay, don't keep embroidering. I'll be back as soon as possible. Don't worry."

"Brother Zhang Wu, don't worry. My sister-in-law and I will be waiting for you at home. You have to come back as well."

"Got it, take your sister-in-law in quickly, I should leave too."

Huang Ying did not go in. She stood at the door and watched Zhang Wu and Wu Dahai walk away. She closed the door and went into the house only after they were out of sight.

Feng Ru took Huang Ying's hand and walked towards the main room with a smile: "Sister-in-law, I also embroidered a purse recently. Please help me take a look at it later. I want to give it to Sister Song."

Thinking that Song Shiwei didn't seem to have much money, Huang Ying smiled and said "OK".

When Song Shiwei got up at noon and entered the main room, he saw two people, one big and one small, sitting at a round table embroidering.

When Feng Ru saw Song Shiwei, her eyes lit up immediately. She ran to her with a purse in her hand and said, "Sister, look, this is the purse I embroidered for you. The previous ones are all old. This is a new one. Come and see if you like it."

The purse is made of light green material and has a crabapple flower embroidered on it. The color combination is very bold, but the combination is very eye-catching.

Song Shiwei took the purse in her hand and looked at it carefully. Under the expectant gaze of the little girl, she nodded slowly: "It looks very nice."

"Then let me change it for my sister," Feng Ru said, and then took off the purse that Song Shiwei had used for a long time on her waist, and then tied a new purse on.

It just so happened that Song Shiwei was also wearing light blue clothes today, and the purse hanging around her waist was very suitable.

Huang Ying walked forward and looked at it carefully for a moment: "Ruru's craftsmanship is getting better and better. This old purse was also made by Ru'er, no wonder Shi Wei has worn it for so long and liked it at first sight."

When Song Shiwei first came here, she bought a lot of cloth and clothes, but forgot to buy some purse handkerchiefs. As a result, although she had a lot of clothes, there were no purses to match them. No wonder the little girl and Huang Ying would embroider handkerchief purses for her every once in a while.

After receiving the compliment, Feng Ru's eyes curved like crescent moons, and she smiled brightly: "Most of my sister's clothes are blue or white, so I chose blue material, so that no matter what color clothes my sister wears, she can wear it."

Song Shiwei smiled: "You are still careful."

"Hehe, as long as you like it, I'll make it for you next time."

"You'd better practice your calligraphy and martial arts. I don't need a purse anyway. One or two will do."

Feng Ru pouted immediately and put her hands on her waist: "How can that be possible? I practice calligraphy every day and have time to do needlework. My mother said that girls should know how to do needlework. I can't just give it up. Brother Zhangwu has his sister-in-law to do it for him, so I will do it for Sister Song."

As they spent more time together, the little girl became more and more clever, and Song Shiwei could only shake his head helplessly in the end.

After some chatting, Feng Ru made tea for Song Shiwei, while Huang Ying returned to the round table to continue embroidering. While threading the needle, she said, "Auntie Tian came to our house this morning and asked us to go to her house and sit down. She also said that we shouldn't stay at home all day. I think we will be together for a long time in the future, so I plan to go to her house in the afternoon to talk and get to know her."

"The village chief's home is not far away. If you have time, you can go to his house and have a chat. Auntie Tian is cheerful and easy to talk to, and most of the villagers are also warm and helpful."

Huang Ying nodded seriously, then smiled and said, "I've noticed that too. Auntie Tian is very straightforward. It's most comfortable to interact with people like her. Shi Wei, do you want to go with us?"

Song Shiwei immediately shook his head: "I won't go. I have nothing to say to them. If you feel embarrassed to go alone, then take Ru'er with you. She has been bored at home for some time anyway."

"I remember there seems to be a girl of Ruer's age in the village. It would be good for her to go with me. Maybe we can make some friends. It's better than staying at home with you."

Song Shiwei smiled gently.

At this time, Feng Ru came in with a cup of steaming hot tea, and turned around to add hot water to the teacup next to Huang Ying.

When Feng Ru heard that she would be taken to the village as a guest in the afternoon, she immediately smiled and nodded in agreement.

After lunch, the two went to the village chief's house together. Huang Ying even went back home to get a handful of dried vegetables, saying that she felt embarrassed to go to someone's house empty-handed for the first time.

As soon as the two left, Song Shiwei entered the space, moved a chair and lay down in the yard of the space. Various fruits and snacks were placed on the small coffee table next to her. She lay down, reading a storybook and eating a snack one bite at a time. It was so comfortable.

Zhang Wu and Wu Dahai came back on the afternoon of the second day. Both of them were covered in dirt and looked rather disheveled. Wu Dahai said a few words in a hurry and went home carrying a roe deer.

There were five or six pheasants and a wild boar in the yard. Zhang Wu took the handkerchief handed to him by Huang Ying and wiped his face with it. As he wiped, he said, "This time, my luck is really bad. I encountered a big one, but it turned out to be two blind bears. I can still try to kill one, but the other two can only run away."

Huang Ying took the dirty towel back, washed it and gave it to him once: "If you don't run, do you think you can fight against the blind bear? He will knock you down with one palm."

"If they had really slapped me, I would have lost at least half my life. Dahai and I saw that something was wrong and ran away quickly. Fortunately, we didn't attract their attention, otherwise it would have been a real problem."

Huang Ying threw the handkerchief directly at him and said angrily, "Pooh, pooh, pooh, what half a life? Don't talk nonsense."

Watching the young couple talking, Song Shiwei and Feng Ru left quietly.

Afterwards, the two of them walked into the main hall and sat down. Zhang Wu said to Song Shiwei, "We encountered a blind bear when we walked a little deeper this time. It seems that the wild animals in the mountains have reproduced. This time we got a wild boar. I don't plan to go to the mountains in the short term."

"Going into the city tomorrow?"

Zhang Wu nodded and said, "Wild boars can't stand being left out in this weather. Let's go into the city early tomorrow to deal with them. We can also visit Song Da and the others on the way. I plan to take Ru'er with me tomorrow."

Thinking that he wanted to ask about Song Da and the others, Song Shiwei nodded and agreed.

Feng Ru and Huang Ying had been chatting with people in the village these past two days, and the little girl had also made a friend. When she heard that she was going to the city tomorrow, her eyes widened: "I have an appointment with Sister Hui to embroider together tomorrow, so I won't go to the city."

Zhang Wu smiled at her and said, "Do you think I'm taking you to the city to have fun tomorrow? I have some serious business to attend to."

"Oh, then I'll go tell Sister Hui later, so she won't have to wait for me at home tomorrow."
