Chapter 1168: Overcoming the Tribulation (Second Update)
Back home, it was time for lunch, but Mrs. Sun was not in the kitchen.
Xiaohua Xiaoduo is not here either.
Yang Ruoqing knew the reason for Xiaohua Xiaoduo's absence. It was because she sent the two of them to keep an eye on Xiaoan.
There is water everywhere now. It is the nature of children to like to play in water, especially for little boys of Xiao An's age.
Someone must be sent to watch over him, otherwise, if he is not careful, no one will be able to bear the consequences.
"No need to guess, my bodhisattva-hearted mother went to distribute porridge and steamed buns to the villagers again."
Standing at the door of the kitchen, Yang Ruoqing said helplessly to Luo Fengtang.
“Total counting of the villagers affected by the disaster, there must be one or two hundred people.”
“My mother rows a boat to deliver two meals a day, and makes porridge with rice in one day. It’s dozens of kilograms, and the wheat flour used to make steamed buns is also dozens of kilograms.”
"If the flood continues, my warehouse will be empty!"
Yang Ruoqing said mockingly.
This does not include the food and drink of the relatives raised at home...
Luo Fengtang grinned when he heard this.
"God may have received this blessing because he saw that the third aunt was so kind and kind." He said.
"The three golden leaves in your hand, Qing'er, can be afforded by the people in our village even if they don't do any work for a year. What does it mean to have some rice and wheat flour?" he asked.
Hearing this, Yang Ruoqing smiled happily.
"Haha, I didn't expect you to be quite good at settling accounts!" she said.
"Even without these three gold leaves, with the wealth we have earned from doing business over the past year, I can still afford to support the people of this village."
Although Qingshui Towns and restaurants in Huguang County will have a large business impact due to the flood.
However, the two Tianxiang buildings in Xiushui Town in the south and Licheng have been making money.
Floods are a catastrophe and a catastrophe for farmers whose family background is not good and who are looking forward to their fields regardless of source.
For her family, this is nothing, it is just a little loss of income.
"Well, saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. For those poor villagers, let's do our best to help as much as we can!" She finally said.
Luo Fengtang nodded: "My Qing'er, with a sharp mouth and a soft heart, is always the kindest!"
Yang Ruoqing rolled her eyes: "Okay, don't say any sensational words. I have to go to the side yard to see my grandma and the others. Will you go?"
"I'll go with you!"
"Let's go!"
Two people came to visit Mrs. Sun in the yard next door.
Old Mrs. Sun was sitting on the bed, playing with the soles of her shoes.
Inside the bed, Xiaojie is sleeping.
Seeing the two people coming in, Mrs. Sun put down the soles of her shoes and greeted them happily.
"Qing'er, Tangyaozi, why do you have time to come here? Come on, come and sit."
Tangyaozi saw Xiaojie sleeping, so he didn't go in.
Standing at the door of the house, he greeted Old Mrs. Sun, and then said to Yang Ruoqing: "I'll go take a look at the pig pen in the backyard."
"Well, you go ahead and I'll talk to my grandma," she said.
In the room, Mrs. Sun had already gotten out of bed.
The old lady opened the cabinet and took out a jar. Then she took a clean bowl, scooped things out of the jar, and put them into the bowl.
Yang Ruoqing turned around and happened to see this scene.
"Granny, what are you doing?" she walked over and asked.
Mrs. Sun said excitedly: "I'll make some sugar water for you to drink. You're so hot and sweaty from running. You need to replenish it!" It’s time to make sugar water. I can drink plain water or tea.”
Old Mrs. Sun. Said: "That's not possible. Sugar water is good and nourishes the body."
"Granny, I sold you this sugar to drink last time, so you can keep it alive."
"Water is too much." It's so big that it floods the road to town, so I can't buy it in time after I finish drinking it," she said. "Oh, why should I, an old woman, drink sugar water? Come on, you can drink a bowl to replenish your body."
In the end, Yang Ruoqing could not resist Old Mrs. Sun. She held a bowl of sweet sugar water and sat aside to sip it.
Old Mrs. Sun moved a stool, sat in front of her, and looked at it with a smile.
"Is the sugar water made by Ga Po delicious?" she leaned forward and asked.
Yang Ruoqing wiped the corners of her mouth and nodded: "It tastes delicious."
Mrs. Sun smiled with joy and a smile on her face.
"If you like it, come back later. Grandma Ga will keep all the candy in the jar for you alone, and none of them know about it!" she said.
“Huh?”
Yang Ruoqing opened her eyes wide and then looked at the bed over there.
Xiao Jie slept soundly.
"Granny, isn't it good for you to be so biased? If your brothers and sisters find out later, they will talk about you!" Yang Ruoqing said with a smile.
Old Mrs. Sun said: "Wait until the water subsides and you can buy more sugar, and then give it to them to drink. Don't say anything."
Yang Ruoqing couldn't laugh or cry.
Why?
This was not the first time that Mrs. Sun secretly stuffed something into her.
Last time, several younger brothers and sisters took turns celebrating birthdays, and the old lady always gave each child a pair of shoes as a gift.
When it was her turn to celebrate her birthday, the old lady not only accepted the shoes, but also secretly stuffed a pair of socks into the shoes.
From Mrs. Sun, Yang Ruoqing also heard that in the past, when this body was still crazy.
One year in the first month of the year, I followed Yang Huazhong and Sun back to Sunjiagou to pay New Year's greetings.
Old Mrs. Sun raised an old hen and was reluctant to kill it every year and during the holidays.
The granddaughter came and immediately killed the stew.
On the dinner table, there was a chicken and two chicken legs, all of which were torn apart and given to her to gnaw alone.
Daan Dajie and the others next to them all ate chicken breasts.
The younger Xiao An and Xiao Jie were not very good at eating at that time, so they cooked noodles with chicken soup.
At that time, I was stupid, fat and had a big appetite, and almost half of an old hen went into her stomach...
"Granny, there is water everywhere these days, and the yard at home is damp. Are your legs okay? Are your bones not hurting?" Yang Ruoqing asked.
Old Mrs. Sun smiled and shook her head: "It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt. You have a lot to do, so you don't have to worry about Grandma Ga."
"Your aunt and your mother, please take care of me." You're well taken care of!"
Yang Ruoqing nodded: "That's good. If there's anything painful there, please tell me quickly."
"Okay, okay!"
The grandfather and grandson talked for a while and spoke thoughtfully.
Yang Ruoqing learned from Mrs. Sun that Mrs. Sun and the others had indeed gone to make porridge.
The young and old men, such as Lao Suntou and Yang Huazhong, rowed into the village.
Accepting the instructions of the disaster-stricken villagers in the village, I went into the village and went door to door to help them get usable supplies.
Save as much as you can!
"Granny, I'm going back to cook lunch. When it's done, will you always go over and eat it, or should I bring you some?"
Old Mrs. Sun waved her hand: "You have to cook it alone. How about food for so many people? If you have enough work, I'll go with you and we'll cook together!"
"It's okay. Ga Po stays with Xiaojie. I'll just ask Tang Yazi to help me later."
Yang Ruoqing said.
Old Mrs. Sun could not defeat Yang Ruoqing, so she had to send her to the door of the house.
Luo Fengtang happened to come over there.
The two of them said goodbye to Mrs. Sun together and returned to their own yard.
