Next to her was Fu'er, who was sleeping soundly with her child in her arms.
Just like yesterday, Chen Yang was in a daze for a long time after waking up before accepting the fact that he was Xu Qian.
Besides Xu Qian, who else could he be?
Chen Yang smiled to himself.
Then, the smile gradually became awkward.
The last memory of left and right in his mind was:
"Go to sleep, I'm tired."
Finally, one day when the children were not noisy, Fu'er became panicked and frightened again. She wanted to have a close interaction, but Chen Yang responded dryly.
Chen Yang felt embarrassed all over when he thought about it.
Unfortunately, he couldn't remember why he refused.
Anyway, I had a vague feeling at that time that it was wrong to do so.
That kind of weak and weak feeling is just like reaching out to pick something out from the other person's mouth and eating it in front of others, it is extremely embarrassing.
After Chen Yang came to his senses, he decisively went out.
Staying in this home, he always felt extremely depressed and depressed, as if every moving person was a clay-embedded wood sculpture in a temple, solemn and solemn, but without vitality.
The only exception is the younger sister Xu Lu, but she is busy taking care of her parents and washing clothes. Whenever you see her, you can see her forehead bangs stuck to her forehead, always covered with sweat.
Walking on the streets of Bowang County, Chen Yang gradually changed from being careless to feeling that something was wrong.
People on the street come and go in a hurry, often with a look of fear on their faces. Occasionally, you can see people whispering to each other at alley entrances, street corners, inside and outside teahouses.
They seemed to be exchanging some bad news with each other, and each of them looked grave, as if their wife had stolen someone.
Chen Yang heard the words "Qinghe County", "Cat", "Longmen County" and other words from the words that were blown by the wind.
"What happened in those places?"
Chen Yang frowned and thought for a moment. Longmen County and Qinghe County are right next door to Bowang County. If there is a problem there, it will certainly affect Bowang County.
"Is there going to be trouble?"
"Then we need to save some food."
Chen Yang thought of this and looked for the grain store where he carried a bag of rice home yesterday.
Half a street away, he saw a long line of people queuing directly in front of him from the door of the grain store.
Most of the people queuing up were carrying sacks or carrying poles. What they said to each other while queuing out of boredom was that food prices had gone up again, three times a day.
As soon as Chen Yang heard this, he saw from a distance that the clerk from the grain store walked out arrogantly, took out a wooden sign with plaster writing on it, and hung it at the door of the grain store.
This sign is called a water sign, and what is written on it is the changing price of food.
Food prices have risen again.
Wailing sounds came from all over the long queue.
The person at the front of the queue who had already bought the food was beaming with joy, as if he had gotten a huge bargain.
Those who were not yet in line beat their chests and screamed, partly scolding themselves for not being able to get ahead because of their weak legs; partly scolding the owner of the grain store for being evil and raising the price four times a day.
When Chen Yang saw this scene, his heart sank.
Don't look at the bag of rice he carried back yesterday. Unless he plans to tighten his belt in the future, otherwise, with his appetite, the bag of rice is enough to last two weeks.
With the current situation, even if another Lao Qi shows up to rob him, he may not be able to buy rice in Bowang County.
Chen Yang silently watched the long queue for rice for a long time, and the water sign in the middle that had increased in price frantically appeared twice more.
"Get money."
"Buy rice."
Chen Yang gritted his teeth and made a decision.
It is impossible to work as a long-term laborer. No matter how much hard work you sell, it may not be enough to buy a bowl of rice.
We can't even go to the mines.
After what happened yesterday, Chen Yang had to be more defensive.
