"It's okay, mom. I have plenty. No one will notice if you put a little."

Qin Zhongyue said as he reached into the gray flour bag again, took out the white flour, and stirred it a bit, otherwise the color difference would be too obvious.

Jiang watched her daughter's little hand wave gently, and there was more rice and flour, and they were all snow-white rice and flour. It was worthy of being the things given by the King of Hell. It was different and it was obviously the best at first glance!

But what if someone else saw this?

"Mom, I took it out carefully when I took it out. I only took it out when no one was around. I'm not that stupid, and my brothers and sisters don't seem to be that stupid either. Even if they found something, they wouldn't tell anyone.

Don't worry, mother."

"You say that every time, but you keep taking out different things. I don't know what you're thinking."

Jiang knew that her daughter was doing this for the good of the family. It might be a bit ungrateful for her to say this now, but she really felt that her daughter's safety was much more important than their family having better food.

"Mother knows that you are doing this for the good of this family, but mother hopes that you will be well, so that your father and I can feel at ease. Otherwise, we will not be able to rest in peace.

As for those things, don't take them if you can. Without them, your father, your brothers and I can support this family. You don't need to take the risk."

"Look at what you said, mother. It's not that serious. I am also a member of this family and I also want to do something for the family. I will pay more attention next time."

Qin Zhongyue felt her scalp tingling at what her mother said. Mother's love is too strong, but it is also a burden.

Although she didn't have a lot of supplies in her own space that she couldn't use, there were still a lot. She felt uncomfortable seeing that she had no use for them.

Especially when she saw her parents and brothers suffering, she wanted to take out everything in the space.

She also knew that it was only temporary that no one noticed and she could take things out at will. If she lived here for a long time, it would inevitably be noticed by others, which would be really disadvantageous to her. But those were things to consider in the future. Now she had to live her life well.

"Mom, I'm hungry, hurry up and cook!"

Qin Zhongyue had no choice but to use her trump card of acting coquettishly again.

Sure enough, when Jiang heard that her precious daughter was hungry, she immediately washed the rice and cooked.

When Qin Zhongyue saw that she only scooped a bamboo tube of rice, she knew what she meant. She wanted to have two kinds of rice, and she was the only one to eat the refined rice while they would eat the brown rice.

Qin Zhongyue reached directly into the basin and added a bowl of rice.

"Why don't you listen, girl?"

Just as Jiang was about to get angry, Qin Zhongyue raised her hand again. The meaning was very clear. If she continued, she would let go. Jiang immediately shut up.

"Mom, from now on, all of us in the family will eat the same thing. I don't want to eat something different from you. I'll be unhappy if I do."

Seeing that her daughter insisted, Jiang no longer wanted to help her. The whole family ate rice. They put the washed rice in an iron pot, added water and lit it.

This iron pan comes ready-made. Just wash it clean and use it directly.

In addition, they cooked a pot of egg, wild vegetable and mushroom soup in a small clay pot. This was their lunch today.

For people who have been exiled for so many days, being able to eat rice is already very, very rich.

Qin Zhongyue thought that the bowl of braised pork that Niu Su gave her had not been eaten yet, so she took it out in front of Jiang.

"Hehe, please come up with an excuse that satisfies both parties.

If I don't eat what the King of Hell gives me, then I am not giving him face, and he won't give me anything next time."

Qin Zhongyue talked nonsense openly.

Jiang was about to get angry when she saw this, but after hearing what she said, she had to rack her brains to think of a solution and had no time to talk about Qin Zhongyue.

By lunchtime, Qin Renshan and his three sons dragged down a lot of bamboo from the mountain, including three straight beams.

Of course, these are not enough. They have to go up the mountain again in the afternoon. It will take two days of logging, and this may be enough.

As soon as they got home, they saw a big bowl of brightly colored braised pork for lunch. The food was so delicious that it made them drool, and they all looked at Jiang and Qin Zhongyue.

Jiang coughed and said, "Just now, a man passed by our house with two pieces of meat. I asked him to buy these and came over, thinking that we should have a good meal since we just arrived here.

Stop standing there, wash up and eat."

The whole family believed Jiang's words and washed their hands before eating.

This was the first complete and hearty meal the family had had since their exile, and everyone's stomachs were full.

After dinner, Qin Renshan and his three sons continued to go up the mountain to cut bamboo, while Qin Sixi stayed at home to pick up stones and open up wasteland.

"Good girl, take a nap."

Jiang thought her daughter must be tired after running around all morning, so she let her take a nap while she watched her.

Qin Zhongyue thought of her weight loss plan and couldn't go to sleep now. The situation at home was not suitable for sleep.

"I couldn't sleep, so I went to work with my fourth brother.

Mom, if you are sleepy, take a nap. "

With that said, he left.

Jiang shook her head. Her daughter was really becoming more and more sensible, which made her feel more and more distressed. She quickly washed the pots and bowls and put them away, and then followed her children to pick up stones.

The stones that were picked up were not thrown away but piled together. The big ones could be used to build walls, and the small ones could be used to pave the road in front of the door.

"The older sisters are busy."

Niang San'er, who was picking up stones, heard a gentle voice. Qin Zhongyue looked up and saw that it was Aunt Li, who had fainted at the door of her house in the morning, coming over with a small waist basket.

Jiang immediately stood up, clapped her hands, and went to greet him with a smile.

"Sister-in-law, come and sit. Our home is simple, with only a shed. The father of the child is taking the children to the mountain to cut bamboo, so we are just tidying up the door."

Jiang was a typical country woman. She was not the dull type and liked to chat with people. It was just right that Aunt Li came over.

"This shed needs some work. It's OK in the summer, but it's really not okay in the winter.

My old man said that I was ignorant of etiquette and should have come to thank you for saving his life this morning. But I was decocting medicine for him this morning and only got time now.

Here are twenty eggs, not many, so don't be disgusted."

Aunt Li said this and put the basket down.

"That's not possible. Sister-in-law, take it back and eat it yourself. You need it more than my family. Even though we just got here, we are from farmers and we are strong and healthy and don't need to eat these."

Jiang immediately declined.

"Big sister, you don't want it but you think it's too little?"

Aunt Li's way of dealing with people seemed reasonable. Jiang was stifled by her words. If she refused, it seemed as if she really disliked the small amount of money given by others. So she had to accept it with a thick face.

"You should do this. You should do this. It's not that we don't have much at home. You should bring some decent things."

"Sister-in-law, you are not being polite. We are all neighbors, so please stop saying those inappropriate things.

Sister-in-law, how long will it take for you to go back?

We don’t know how to get through these three years.”

Jiang changed the subject, otherwise the matter of saving her would be impossible.

Aunt Li came to deliver gifts only for a secondary reason. She came mainly to find out about the Qin family's background. She didn't want to come, but the old man insisted that this family was intentionally approaching them. She even had a quarrel with the old man at home and bet that the Qin family definitely didn't know them.

She wanted to let the old man see and let him slap himself in the face!

So after Jiang received the eggs, she did not leave immediately, but started chatting with Jiang.

Because his motives were not pure and he felt guilty, he helped them pick up stones.
