Get the golden finger at the beginning: Enjoy the journey of escaping from the famine

The shouting and cursing in the yard never stopped all morning. Only after Yang Chunhong finished cooking did the shouting and cursing quiet down a little.

At this time, Shen Changshan pushed open the door and walked out. Lin Cuicui followed him, carrying Shen Li on her back.

Xu Taohua followed them, while Shen Jingyuan and Shen Qi'an went up the mountain with bows and sickles.

Shen Dajiang and Yang Chunhong's faces turned red and blue.

The boss's family just ignored them!

It is only a short time since the beginning of spring, and the village is full of greenery, with no signs of drought at all.

When we arrived at Doctor Liu's house, the door was already open and Doctor Liu was sitting in the yard picking up medicine.

"Uncle Liu, I'll bring my daughter to change the medicine."

"Okay, put it in there."

After washing his hands, Doctor Liu went into the room and removed the cotton cloth on Shen Li's head.

"The wound hasn't gotten worse. You still need to take the medicine that was prescribed. After changing the medicine today, come back the day after tomorrow."

"Okay, thank you Uncle Liu."

I don’t know how big the hole on his back is, but I feel like the cotton cloth is easy to tear apart, and the back of my head feels cold.

"Sigh~"

I don't know what medicine your doctor gave me, it hurts a bit.

After changing the medicine, Shen Changshan looked a little embarrassed, "Uncle Liu, I'll send the consultation fee to you later."

Doctor Liu obviously understood their family's situation and readily nodded in agreement.

On the way back, Lin Cuicui, carrying her daughter on her back, asked her husband, "Boss, we don't have any money to give, right?"

Shen Changshan was silent for a while. "My parents have some. If they don't give me any, I'll catch the hens at home and give them to Uncle Liu as compensation."

Lin Cuicui's eyes lit up, "I know where my mother-in-law hides the money!"

Xu Taohua next to him was really frightened. Are his parents-in-law crazy?

When the family returned, the Shen family was preparing to go to the fields to work in the yard.

Seeing the family coming back, Yang Chunhong was about to get angry, but then he saw Shen Changshan stretching out his big hand in front of him.

"Mother, Ah Li's consultation fee is one tael of silver."

Yang Chunhong almost couldn't catch her breath, "What? Do you think your daughter is a treasure?"

"One tael of silver. If you don't have it, find a way yourself!"

Shen Changshan didn't hesitate and walked straight to the chicken coop. He kicked open the door and caught two hens in no time.

Yang Chunhong suddenly became angry, "Shen Changshan, let me go, what do you want to do?"

"Is my chicken still laying eggs?"

"Since mother has no money, I have to find a way to pay Ali's medical fee."

As he said this, he handed the hen in his hand to Lin Cuicui, and then bent down to catch two more.

Yang Chunhong's face turned red with anger as she watched the unfilial son about to take the chicken away.

He managed to squeeze out a few words from between his teeth: "Put down the chicken, I'll go get you the money."

Shen Changshan didn't move. Yang Chunhong gave the couple a fierce look and turned around angrily to get the money.

After a while, the old lady came out with a small string of copper coins in her hand, "I can only give you 500 coins at most, no more."

Shen Changshan took the copper coin with his free hand, then called to his wife, "Cui Cui, let's go."

The couple walked out of the yard without even closing the door of the chicken coop.

Yang Chunhong jumped up and down in the back, cursing, "You bastard, you have a black heart, you want to kill me!"

Just as Yang Chunhong was about to chase him out, she heard a voice coming from the neighbor next door, "Old Shen's family, there was a quarrel last night and this morning. Is it really unlucky to be your neighbor?"

Shen Dajiang's face turned pale and he stopped Yang Chunhong with his eyes. He always hated to let family disgrace be made public, and now that Wen Song was studying in the academy, he had to pay extra attention to his reputation.

Yang Chunhong looked so ugly as if her parents had died.

Shen Li and Xu Taohua returned to the room and closed the door. Listening to Grandma Shen's yelling and cursing outside, the two sisters-in-law looked at each other.

After a while, Shen Dajiang took his family to the fields, leaving Shen Jiaojiao, Shen Li and Xu Taohua at home.

Xu Taohua came out to make medicine for Shen Li only after she heard no sound outside the yard.

……

Shen Changshan and his wife carried four chickens and went straight to Doctor Liu's house.

"Uncle Liu, how much is the medical bill? Can these chickens be used to pay for it?"

"Changshan, the total amount of the medicine for the diagnosis and treatment is 185 coins."

"A chicken is 50 cents, I'll give you 15 cents."

Shen Changshan threw a few chickens into Uncle Liu's chicken coop, and refused to take the 15 cents he got.

When the couple returned to the Shen family, the house was very quiet. Lin Cuicui saw Xu Taohua making medicine for her little girl, so she went to catch a hen.

The Shen family originally raised 6 hens, but now there is only one hen laying eggs.

Lin Cuicui took the kitchen knife and cut her neck to let the blood flow, while Shen Changshan was already boiling water.

At noon, the family finished eating a 5-jin hen. When Yang Chunhong came back, she found that one hen was missing.

"Oh, you damn family!"

"What sin have I committed?"

As he spoke, he slammed the door loudly, "Boss, Boss's wife, come out quickly, don't play dumb in there!"

The room was very quiet. No matter how the old lady yelled and cursed outside, no one responded to her.

When Yang Chunhong saw the door was locked from the inside, she knew there was someone in the room.

The most important thing was that she smelled the chicken coming from inside.

"You black-hearted people, raising your family is worse than raising animals!"

"All my food is wasted!"

The family ate with gusto, ignoring Grandma Shen's insults.

When Shen Dajiang came back at noon, Yang Chunhong complained to him.

"Just eat it. It's just a chicken, right?"

"Besides, I told you last night that we should catch a chicken to nourish Ali's body."

Yang Chunhong rolled her eyes. A chicken?

I only have one chicken in the chicken coop now?

It is true that you don’t know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are until you manage the household! !

……

Shen Li took the medicine for another three days before she felt much better. The back of her head also started to itch, and the wound began to heal slowly.

During these three days, the people in the first house adhered to the principle: Even if they didn't work, they would still eat, and they would eat good food.

In the past, I never ate any of those black flour steamed buns, wild vegetable dumplings, or coarse grain cakes.

The brown rice, eggs and oil in the house were all cooked, and if Grandma Shen hadn't kept a close eye on the old hen, I wouldn't know where to find it now.

Yang Chunhong had already locked the food in the room, but Lin Cuicui was so strong that she broke the lock in two strokes, and then the food was gone.

The news of the Shen family's excitement these days has spread throughout the village.

Shen Li was also stunned. She hadn't even started yet!

Her cheap dad has awakened now?

So fast?

And the awakening seems to be very thorough!

In terms of attitude over the past two days, Shen Li scored eight points, and the remaining two points were because there was not enough time.

Yang Chunhong has been a little mentally disturbed these days. Of course, it was because of the anger she caused her by the eldest wife's family.

He Lai Di from the second wife looked at the actions of the first wife's family and was amazed at first, but later she couldn't laugh anymore.

Because there is a lot of work to do at home, someone has to wash clothes, feed the pigs, cook meals, and do housework.

In the end, it all fell on her.

It would be strange if I could be happy!

Shen Jiaojiao didn't dare to offend the eldest wife these two days. The reason was that all of this was caused by her.

So she has been keeping a low profile at home these two days.

But He Lai Di still held a grudge against him.

Seven days later, Shen Li was finally able to walk out of the yard by herself. She had been confined in the yard and the room for these seven days and felt like she was getting rusty.

The eldest brother often took the fourth brother hunting, and sometimes Shen Changshan would go too. They would take half of the prey home to eat and the other half to sell to restaurants in town.

Of course I kept the money myself!

Thanks to the good food she had eaten these days, her face gained some flesh and her complexion became a little rosier.

Not only her, but several people in the big house have gained some weight because of the rising food prices.

Grandma Shen and the second wife were so angry.

But they didn't dare to make a fuss, because Shen Dajiang cared most about his reputation, and there was a scholar in the family.

If this gets out, you'll suffer a great loss!
