The second strongman was very excited. "Third sister, I will go with you."
"No, you can train all the children in the village from seven years old to upwards."
"Understood."
"Is there anything missing?"
"Third sister, we are short of guns."
Chen Miao nodded, "Is your wife about to give birth?"
"Well, it should be at the end of the twelfth twelfth lunar month." Er Qiang was still wondering, why did he transfer it to his wife?
"I will discuss with my fifth uncle. I will give you some money every day from now on. No matter how much it is, it is also a kind of guarantee for you." I have given it to you before, but it was interrupted later. This time I have made a plan to give it to you after the Liberation War.
After all, they are also suffering and have to support their families.
Chen Miao has had this idea for a long time. She ignored it before, but now she has made arrangements at home.
"Third sister, no need."
Chen Miao shook his head, "I got money from outside and gave it all to the team. Of course I have to take care of my family as well. You all have families and need to support your family.
As long as you do your best, leave the rest to me."
The second strongman nodded excitedly, the third sister was right, he only organized the training, and the third sister did the rest.
After telling the guys that the third sister was going to find guns and ammunition, the boys were very excited. Who doesn't want a gun?
Chen Miao went directly to Shen Wufu. He was doing the interrogation at home. This required too much, and several men who had nothing to do were working on it.
Chen Miao went in and asked people to say hello one by one.
"Xiao Feng's family, what do you want?"
"Uncle Wu, I think that from now on, I will give each of the two strong men three cents a day, and all boys and girls over seven years old in the village will have to train with the second strong men."
"What's going on at Xiaofeng's house?"
"Uncle Wu, that is to give the big guys the ability to protect themselves. Also, this time I got some money from dealing with the traffickers. The two strong men all have families and have to support their families. It is normal to give them money.
"
Shen Wufu nodded, "Okay, you make arrangements."
"I'll go out in a few days and see if I can get a gun."
"Where to go?"
"I don't know yet. It should be just to grab the guns of the national army. We have no other options."
There is no other way but to rob it, and there is no way to spend money to buy it.
"It's from Xiaofeng's family, how about we go outside and take a look? Then we can all go together."
"Okay, let me think about it." It is impossible for the national army to pass through this small mountain village, so they can only go out and look for it.
There are not many troops stationed in the county, and there are not many weapons. It is not interesting. It is still peaceful now. If we rob it and break the peace, it will not be good for everyone.
"Uncle Fifth, I will give you fifty yuan first, and you can arrange to give the money to the second strong ones."
"Okay, I'll give it once every ten days." This way no one will be dissatisfied. After all, this is everyone's business. It's really not kind to expect a few people.
"I will keep accounts in the future and will not go on business trips when it comes to money."
"Well, I can rest assured if I leave it to my fifth uncle. And I will ask my fifth aunt to make a coat for each of them. It's too painful to be outside in the winter. In fact, next year, two houses at the end of the village will be fine."
Several people sounded a little nervous now. How can we be more meticulous at this time than the little devil at that time? Will this war last for many years? Is it more fierce than the little devil at that time?
Chen Miao didn't explain anything, mainly because she didn't know clearly. This was just a precautionary measure.
When I got home, I went to the old house and told them to make cotton coats for Erqiang and the others.
"Yes, I know, I can definitely make it in two days."
"Aunt Wu made it thicker. It's too cold outside."
After the explanation, she went back to sort out the money. Although she couldn't give it to Dayang even if she gave fifty yuan, and ordinary people couldn't exchange it, she might as well give some more copper coins.
After she left, the women doing the work talked in a hurry. "That's good. I'm given a coat and will suffer less when I'm outside."
"Who says it's not the case? Er Qiang's wife said that Er Qiang's body was hard when he came home from work. His hands and feet were all frozen."
"I'll make them cotton hats and gloves later."
In the past, it was all spontaneous and I didn't think too much about it. Even if I felt distressed, I would make it for my own family. Last year, Chen Miao gave everyone a cotton-padded coat and some people were reluctant to wear it.
Several women began to study cotton coats. Although they said they wanted to make hats, they finally decided to make cotton coats with hoods.
Chen Miao pushed a cart to deliver money to Shen Wufu. One bag contained twenty yuan of copper coins, and the rest was given as silver dollars.
"For Xiaofeng's family, you'd better let the second strongman follow you out, so you can rest assured."
"Uncle Wu, I have a small goal. Don't worry, I have seen a lot over the years and I will avoid danger.
If there is a large force, I will come back and call for people."
I have already thought about it, but if there is nothing suitable, I will take it out from the space, as well as some weapons. These things are not too advanced, so they can be used now.
On the morning of Laba, I started making porridge before dawn. Anyway, I put all the food away and made three big pots.
I filled out two small pots and thought of sending them to my parents' family and Shen Wufu's family.
When I opened the door, I saw Zhao Xiaoyun outside. "I'm bringing you Laba porridge and Laba garlic."
"Just in time, I also want to send it to your home for you to take back."
"Good guy, there's enough grain in your Laba porridge."
"Of course, there is also a pack of brown sugar for Jiaojiaozi Kang to mix with porridge."
"Just spoil them both." Zhao Xiaoyun said with a smile.
Chen Miao carried the porridge into the house, and then went to deliver it to her parents' family.
Liang Caixia's porridge was also cooked, and she wanted to give it to her third daughter.
"Mom, I've been through a lot, there's no need to give it to me."
"Take it back, every family cooks it differently."
When I got home, I decided to eat the porridge I made. I added a spoonful of brown sugar and a spoonful of white sugar. It was too sweet, and the sweetness was a bit cloying. I had no choice but to change it to a big bowl and add porridge in it. I ate too much now. Yes, but it’s true that I feel good after eating sweets.
The second strongman had just packed up and came over. "Third sister, when are you going to get the gun?"
Chen Miao was speechless. She was more anxious than herself. So she could have it whenever she wanted?
"Today, if there is Laba porridge, please give your wife a bowl."
"Third sister, my wife has made porridge."
"My cooking is delicious."
After cleaning up, I went to Shen Wufu's house and said, "Fifth Aunt, I may not come back one day, so you can just light the fire by yourself."
"Zhong, be careful."
"fine."
I went to my parents' house and said, "Let your father light a fire for you every day." It was too cold in the winter, and I was not sure when I would come back. I still had my child in my arms, so I would light a fire every day and the house would not be so cold.
"Okay, you can light a fire every night."
Chen Miao was planning to go out for two or three days. She didn't want to stay out for too long in the twelfth lunar month.
"Where are you going? Let your father drive the car to see you off."
"I don't know where to go yet? Just wandering around."
