Defeat natural disasters with farming

In the early morning of the second day, Ye Yu and his mother went to the assembly hall of the village. When they arrived, there were already many people there. Her husband came over, and the meeting hall was quite noisy, because this was the first couple in their village to ask for reconciliation.

After the last ancestor of the Ye family was helped over, Ye Hai put the Heli book he had written on the table. After all, they were farmers, and the Heli book was not as beautiful as that written by a scholar. ,Basically all in plain language, and the entire Heli book is not long, only a simple two hundred words. He attributed the reason for Heli to the disagreement between the two after they got married. Save Pandi's face.

In addition, the paper also records the distribution of property and children after divorce. Let’s talk about the children first. Ye Ru is raised by his father Ye Hai, and his mother is not prohibited from visiting. As for the property, the food that originally belonged to them will be divided equally, and the Ye family will return The dowry, but the Wu family did not have to return the dowry.

To be honest, this distribution is not fair, and it is somewhat biased towards the woman, but Ye Hai insisted, and Pandi did not let go, so they had to back down on the conditions.

Father Ye and other elders had all read the Heli book before asking Ye Hai and the others: "Do you still have any objections to the requirements in the Heli book?"

Ye Hai shook his head and said, "Not anymore."

On the other hand, Pandi didn't speak, just stared at Ye Hai, which made Ye's family feel a little worried. Could it be that she regretted it?

Fortunately, Pan Di looked away after a while, then nodded to Father Ye to express that she had no objection, and at the same time she swore in her heart that she would make Ye Family and Ye Hai regret reconciling with her.

Immediately afterwards, under the witness of everyone, Ye Hai and Pan Di pressed the vermilion ink pad with their thumbs, and left their fingerprints on Heli Shu.

There is nothing else to do after pressing the fingerprints. The Heli Book is stored in the village archives, where generally important paper documents are placed, such as maps, land deeds, etc., and the guard of the archives is Ye Tongsheng.

In this way, the matter of Ye Hai and Li came to an end for the time being, and then the village began to prepare for the trip.

The first thing is to choose the three strongest horses from the stables. Since there are horses in the village, they don't need to use their legs to walk. As for why there are three horses, Ye Yu can only say that although he has learned how to ride a horse, his riding skills are not perfect enough. It is certainly possible to ride a horse on flat ground, but it is impossible for the road to be flat everywhere, and there may be many rough trails, so it is not safe for him to ride alone, so he has to ride a horse with Chu Xufeng.

Since we are traveling on horseback, we have to prepare feed for the horses in advance. That’s the reason. I don’t know how the pollution of the water source and grassland will be along the way. If it is serious, the horses will not be able to eat grass. They can only eat the feed they prepared. Besides, the weather is still cold , and there are few tender grasses on the ground.

Fortunately, it is quite simple to make horse feed. You only need to cook coarse materials such as straw, corn stalks, rice bran, and wheat bran to make pancakes. This is done by the women in the village, and it only took them half a day More than 20 large round cakes were prepared within a short period of time, and a whole basket was filled.

In addition to making fodder, they also have to make dry food. The food is from the villagers in the village. The flour kneaded is not pure, and there are many rough noodles in it, but it is full. The biscuit looks dry and thick, but the inside of the biscuit is hollow, and when you eat it in the future, you can put various road vegetables and miso in it when it is slightly heated.

Of course, other people can eat these dry buns, but it is absolutely impossible for Ye Mu to let Ye Yu eat them. Steamed buns and steamed buns only need to be frozen for a while to save.

The day they set off was a sunny day, and the villagers gathered at the entrance of the village to see them off.

After Ye's father left, the village was temporarily under the care of Ye Tongsheng and Ye Boss, while Ye's family would be accompanied by Ye's mother by Mrs. Ye and Mrs. Ye. Otherwise, the father and son would be somewhat worried if she was left alone at home.

Mother Ye straightened the hat on Ye Yu's head, then patted him and said, "Be careful on the road."

Ye Yu nodded and said, "Don't worry."

After giving instructions to each other for a while, the villagers watched them get on their horses.

Chu Xufeng got on the horse first, and then stretched out his arm to let Ye Yu borrow his strength. After Ye Yu came up, he protected him with his left hand, raised his whip with his right hand, and quickly followed the few people in front.

The speed of the horses running along the way was not fast. After all, there were two or three baskets full of things hanging on their bodies.

Ye Yu used to be curious about riding a horse, but after riding a horse for a long time, he was not interested at all. He even hoped that he could get off the horse and go for a walk by noon.

The roots of his thighs were so painful, and his body became very stiff from maintaining one movement for a long time. In addition, he couldn't move around at will when he was on the horse. This time was really difficult.

Just as Ye Yu was lamenting in his heart, Chu Xufeng whispered in his ear: "Get off the horse at noon, take the ointment and apply it."

Ye Yu felt a burst of hot air coming from his ears, and he couldn't help but blushed, and the tip of his ears turned crimson quietly.

It took a while to recover and asked, "What ointment?"

Chu Xufeng replied: "I asked Dr. Chen to make the ointment on the root of the thigh. It promotes blood circulation and removes stasis. It is just right for you."

Ye Yu didn't feel ashamed when he heard the words, he stretched out his hand and patted Chu Xufeng's arm holding the rein, "Thanks, I didn't even think about getting the ointment, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have been very uncomfortable along the way. "

Chu Xufeng responded warmly: "Yes."

They chatted for a while, and Ye Yu covered her mouth and yawned, "I woke up too early in the morning, so I'm a little sleepy."

After saying this, he moved his body forward, straightened up and looked at the side of the road. The road was covered with snow, and the horses' hoofs stepped through the snow, leaving a series of marks. Fortunately, the hooves of the three horses Horseshoes are nailed on them, so they don't slip easily when walking.

They were all wearing masks, but Ye Yu didn't smell any special smell, the air was only fresh from the rain.

When the sun gradually rose to the center of the sky and the sunlight became stronger, they could finally rest. Father Ye chose a shady place, tied the horse to a dead tree trunk, and then he and Ye Zhong scattered to collect firewood. .

Ye Yu and Chu Xufeng were in charge of boiling water and hot cakes. Ye Yu jumped off the horse, and because he had been riding for too long, he staggered when he got off the horse.

After igniting the firewood with a flint and steel, Ye Yu chose two oval stones to stand beside the fire. A small pot could be placed in the middle of the stone, so that the edge of the pot could be stuck on the stone.

After the small pot was set up, Ye Yu poured a sufficient amount of water into it. When the water was boiled, he first poured a cup for each of the people sitting around the fire. As soon as the scalding hot water entered their throats, everyone was instantly satisfied Sighing, the temperature is still low now. Although they have been wearing masks while riding horses, their stomachs are always cool after drinking the cold wind. After drinking a bowl of hot water, they finally recovered.

Ye Zhong was still breathing a little white when he spoke, "According to the current speed, we will arrive in about two days."

Father Ye nodded, "Go slowly, I'm fine now anyway."

After they finished chatting, Ye Yu turned to them and asked, "Do you eat dry buns or steamed buns?"

"Dry buns, the steamed buns are too small, not strong enough to eat." Ye Zhong said, licking the corner of his mouth.

Father Ye and Chu Xufeng also said to eat steamed buns, Ye Yu shrugged after hearing that, then he was the only one eating steamed buns.

He took the food out of the basket. There were three sheets of dry buns and one white bun in total. They were all strung across the stone with branches stripped of bark. It also broke open.

Taking advantage of this time, Chu Xufeng took out two cans of miso. Among the two cans, the one tied with hemp rope was soybean paste, and the one tied with white thread was mushroom meat sauce. A jar of spicy dried tofu as a road dish.

The sauce can be spread on dry buns and steamed buns, and dried tofu can also be sandwiched inside. Ye Yu chose the mushroom meat sauce. The meat sauce is soaked in the soft steamed bun core and gradually warmed up. His eyes lit up as soon as he took a bite. When I got up, the steamed bun skin was roasted, so it was very burnt, and even had a little sweetness, and the meat sauce contained a lot of salt, which was slightly salty, but it was very suitable to match with the tasteless steamed buns .

Chu Xufeng broke off the dry bun and handed it to Ye Yu, "Try it."

Ye Yu was not polite either. After taking it, he put it in his mouth and tasted it carefully. The dry bun really lived up to its name, it was dry and hard, and it looked a bit like a pot helmet in both appearance and taste, so he ate a piece and didn't like it. I ate it, my teeth hurt.

After Ye Yu finished applying the medicine, they continued to set off. The journey was uneventful, nothing happened, and no danger was encountered.

The only thing worth pondering was that when Ye Zhong set up camp at night, Ye Zhong went to patrol nearby and saw several dog paw marks on the wet soil after the snow had melted somewhere.

Ye Zhong half-kneeled on the ground, looked at it for a long time before he said firmly: "It's the paw print of a wolf."

Ye Yu took a deep breath when he heard the words, and it was indeed a wolf. He originally thought about whether it was a wild dog, but after hearing what Uncle Zhong said, he let go of the chance.

"But don't worry, judging by the degree of wear and tear of the paw prints, these wolves probably have been away from here for three or four days." Ye Zhong was afraid that they would be afraid, so he added.

After he got up, he pointed to the paw print at the front and said, "It is estimated that there is a pack of wolves with a wolf king, and the number of wolves may be quite a lot."

"Anyway, be careful, watch carefully at night." Father Ye frowned and looked in the direction of the paw prints, he always had some ominous premonition in his heart.

"Yes." The other three responded one after another.

There was no accident during the night. First, Ye Yu took Ye Yu to keep watch in the middle of the night. During the night watch, Ye Yu couldn't hold back his drowsiness and fell asleep. Ye Yu didn't wake him up, but put a blanket on him.

In the middle of the night, it was Ye Zhong's turn to take Chu Xufeng to watch the night. The two of them were so light that they didn't even wake Ye Yu up. Chu Xufeng carried him and put him into the still warm bedding roll. tight.

With the extinguishing of the fire, the night passed quickly. After Ye Yu woke up, he sighed and asked, "Why didn't you wake me up?"

Ye Zhong patted him on the shoulder and said: "You are still on guard with your small body, go to bed honestly, and wait until the volcano needs you to be busy."

That was the only way to go, Ye Yu blinked and sighed, then dug a spoonful of soil to bury the fire, and waited to confirm that there were no more sparks inside, then the group got on their horses and continued to their destination.
