Don't panic in a famine, I live in the mountains with my golden finger

There have been several days of sunny weather in a row, and the seedlings in the fields are looking different every day. Now is the time to apply fertilizer.

Make a wish and drain some water one day in advance. Don’t drain too much water so that it will be easier to spread wood ash.

I have been making preparations at home these days, planning to wait until sunset before spreading the seeds.

The temperature has been just right these days and the bean sprouts have grown a lot. They are not suitable to be kept for too long, so I will send them to Fumanlou today.

Xuyuan pulled the cart and came to the edge of the waterfall. There was a small hole at the bottom right of the waterfall, which was big enough for one person to enter. There was no water flowing here, and it was icy cold inside, making it an excellent storage room.

The sprouts that the villagers brought yesterday were placed here with wishes.

Xu Zhi was called over to help move the bean sprouts, and Xu Zhi also brought Dahua over.

At this time, all the baskets in the cave had been taken out. The cart was full and there was still room for some left, so Xu Yuan had to get some vines, tied them into bundles, and stuffed them in. The cart was still too small.

The cart was tied to Dahua, and Xuyuan sat on Dahua. They hurried on their way, but there was no room left on the cart.

"Sister, be careful on the road." Xu Zhi watched Xu Yuan and shouted.

……

"Sister Xuyuan, Sister Xuyuan, wait for me, wait for me."

When Xuyuan was about to reach the cave exiting the village, he heard a crisp voice calling him from behind.

He stopped immediately and got off the ground.

A kid about thirteen or fourteen years old ran over from behind, panting and sweating profusely.

"Pan Dahai, why are you here? What's the matter?"

Although the young boy in front of me is very young, his eyes are full of vicissitudes. He is wearing clothes full of patches and there is a hole in the shoes on his feet, but it does not affect the boy's self-confidence and full vitality at all.

Pan Dahai's family also lived in the west of the village, not far from where he lived, but also a little distance away. They fled from other places and followed Qingshan Village. There were only elderly grandfather and grandmother, and a younger brother in the family. Both parents were no longer alive.

"Sister Xuyuan, my grandfather is sick. Doctor Wei doesn't have this medicine. I have to take it to the county town to buy it, but I don't have enough money for the medicine. Can I borrow some money from you to buy medicine for a few days? I can also help you with the work. You can come to me anytime if you need any work." Pan Dahai was afraid of wasting time, so he quickly told the reason why he came in a hurry.

I hesitated for a long time at home, looking at my grandfather who was coughing non-stop on the bed. My grandmother was silently wiping my grandfather's hands, and my younger brother was also worried beside him.

"Brother, do you want to borrow some money from Sister Xuyuan? Just say you are borrowing the money from Yazi first, and then use Yazi to make up for it later."

Pan Xiaojiang thought about it and suggested.

"Yes, Dahai, seeing your uncle coughing so hard, I feel bad too. If Doctor Wei had any herbs, we could buy them on credit, but there isn't any right now."

"Dahai, cough cough, don't worry about grandpa, I'll just tell you, and it will be fine in a few days." The old figure on the bed seemed to have used up all his strength and made a hoarse sound.

Pan Dahai made a decision in his heart, "Grandpa, wait for me, I'll be back soon."

He immediately rushed out of the house and ran to Xuyuan's house. But by chance, he saw Xuyuan chasing Dahua out of the yard.

"Sure, no problem. How much do you need? Why don't you come with me to the county town? I'll give you the money when we get to the pharmacy, and then I'll take you back. It's on the way anyway."

Xu Yuan made room for the backpack and put it on his back. "Da Hai, you can sit here. Just squeeze in."

Seeing that Xu Yuan did not hesitate at all, Pan Dahai agreed to give him the money, which made him feel very surprised and delighted.

His family rarely interacts with others, so there are very few villagers in the village with whom he can speak. Everyone has some difficulties at home, and Pan Dahai knows this very well.

Pan Dahai felt relieved when he was able to borrow money to buy medicine for his grandfather.

"Thank you, Sister Xuyuan." Looking at the figure sitting on the cow with a backpack on his back, with the sunlight shining down, he really looked like an immortal.

……

After passing through the winding paths, we came to the main road. The road was now flat and wide, and our speed increased a lot.

After entering the county town, Xu Yuan first drove to Fumanlou. Pan Dahai looked around all the way, left and right. After all, he had never left the village since he came to Xinzhu Village. This was his first time in the county town after such a long time.

There were so many new and interesting things along the way. I also saw refugees carrying large and small bags and dressed just like me back then, looking around.

A luxurious carriage drove by, with four or five maids and servants following behind it. Pan Dahai looked at the carriage, then at the group of refugees, with mixed feelings.

A very luxurious and beautiful restaurant appeared before his eyes, and then he stopped at the back door of the restaurant.

"Dahai, we're here, let's get off the car." Xuyuan landed on the ground and patted Dahua's head.

I went up and knocked on the door. After a while, the door opened and I saw the familiar lady.

"Xuyuan, you're here. Come in and have a drink of water. Who is this?" He looked at the young boy who appeared next to Xuyuan in confusion.

"Auntie Pan, this is my brother. He came with me to see the world. All right, go in and ask for some water to drink.

Pan Dahai nodded politely and stood behind Xu Yuan.

Aunt Pan left the door wide open and Xuyuan led Dahua into the backyard, where there was a special place for livestock. After tying Dahua up, she made a wish.

Taking Pan Dahai into the kitchen as if he knew the place well, Aunt Pan was arranging people to move the sprouts, and she also called Manager Hu to come over.

The kitchen was bustling with activity at this moment, with the sounds of knives and firewood crackling.

Old Yang saw some movement at the door and looked out. "Hey, girl Yuan is here. How is it? How many sprouts are there today? Do you still have the dried fish and chili? The taste from last time was really unforgettable."

Hearing this, everyone in the kitchen stopped what they were doing and greeted Xu Yuan.

"The girl is here," said Chef Wang, who was stirring the wok nearby. He poured the cooked food onto the plate and looked over. "Who is that young boy?"

"My younger brother, I took him out for a walk today."

Pan Dahai nodded politely to everyone in the kitchen again.

"The dried fish and chili may not arrive so quickly. We have to wait for some time."

"Okay, don't worry about me, I just came in to have a bowl of water to quench my thirst." He picked up two clean bowls beside him, poured some water, and handed a bowl to Pan Dahai, "You guys do your own things, I'll wait for Manager Hu to come."

"Here we go, here we go, just waiting for the wishing girl to come, so I can see how many there are today."

Shopkeeper Hu came over in a hurry and looked at Yazi who had moved in. There was nothing but Yazi.

"Why is there no dried fish this time? I know the peppers haven't been planted yet."

"Manager Hu, it took me two weeks to dry the fish last time. I've been busy with farm work lately and haven't had time to do it. I'll definitely send it to you when I'm free. Besides, the peppers aren't in stock yet, so there's no rush."
