Chapter 237
After talking to Yan Yan, Dai Yu Cicada had been thinking about this matter in her heart.
The great desire of man is to eat and drink.
In the past, there were often patrolling teachers and students in the school found couples in no man’s land, and after the discovery, it became a laughing stock. She had heard a lot, she patrolled also found, although it was someone else found, she only saw a girl from the tree behind the ogonori drilled out, covered his face and ran away, the boy with the patrol fight.
Because I do not know who the girls are, patrolling students and teachers did not seriously pursue, to avoid seriously pursued, but the problem occurred.
She carefully recalled …… indeed did not hear any sound ah.
Visible Yan Yan said is not right.
Old thinking about this, so that she was ashamed of herself. But the more don’t think about it, but the more to think about it.
So,When she got up in the morning, she had two large black circles under her eyes on her face.
She hadn’t slept all night.
Zhu second miss is sleep well, in the morning get up while folding the quilt and ask her: “You did not sleep well last night ah?”
Dai Yu Cicada couldn’t help herself and asked her in a low voice: “Did you hear anything last night?”
She didn’t sleep a wink last night, and when she heard the slightest movement, she pricked up her ears. She heard the sound of the wooden door closing, the sound of the curtains whirring and being drummed by the wind, and she could also hear the sound of people’s footsteps going up the stairs, Zhang Ma’s cloth shoes kicking and pulling on the ground, and also the sound of Shi Wuwei’s big and hard footsteps, and also Mr. Su wearing small leather shoes, walking slowly, gently and crunchy footsteps, as well as Zhu Yanshu.
Zhu Yan Shu even if not wearing high heels, wearing a new small leather shoes, the palm of the shoe is re-nailed, particularly pleasant.
With her together upstairs is another ordinary, indistinguishable footsteps. The footsteps were in step with hers. If she stopped, he stopped, and if she walked, he followed.
The two spoke a few words on the stairs, went into the house together, closed the door, and were heard no more.
All night long.
Until she heard the morning, Shi Wuwei got up to go downstairs behind the kitchen woodshed to carry firewood to split, she did not know that the sky, already dawn.
She didn’t sleep all night.
Zhu Er Miss did not understand at first, but …… not smart enough to be in the right place she suddenly understood! She turned her head and looked at her sister, just looking, just looking.
Downstairs, everyone had already gathered in the dining room to prepare for breakfast.
Zhang Ma is placing one thing on the table.
Su Chunjun is reading the newspaper.
Zhu Yanshu and Prof. Dai are in the small hall next door discussing classes.
Shi Wuwei was in the kitchen.
Suddenly, Second Miss’s loud laughter came from upstairs.
“Hahahahahahahahaha …… Ouch! Ouch ouch ouch ouch!!!”
Everyone downstairs tilted their faces to look upstairs.
Apparently, Second Miss had taken a beating.
Ms. Zhu stretched her head and didn’t care.
Professor Dai took a look at Ms. Zhu and Mr. Su were sitting properly, so he had to not care either.
Mr. Su put down the newspaper and laughed.
Zhang Ma walked to the stairway in a good mood, and without bothering to climb up, she shouted up the stairs.
“How old are you still fighting! Calling people to look at the joke yo! One by one, they are all big girls who are going to get married, still fighting like when they were little? Come on down, it’s time for breakfast. Big sister! Yan Yan!”
The door to the upstairs boudoir suddenly opened, and out rushed a still laughing Second Miss. She rushed down like a whirlwind, and when she reached downstairs, she crossed over to Zhang Ma, bursting into laughter again.
Upstairs, a Dai Yucan came down immediately after her, a friendly and kind girl who may have been a bit strict with her sister, but had never lost her temper, rushed down angrily and red in the face, and went straight to Miss Er.
Second Miss first hid behind Mr. Su.
But her usually reliable fiancé was still sitting motionless on the sofa today, with no intention of getting up to help her.
She ran towards her newly minted stepfather again, but Ms. Zhu was right next to her, had already put down the pen in her hand, and was saying nonchalantly, “Yan Yan, you’re too unintelligent, what did you do wrong again? No running, let your sister teach you a good lesson!”
Second Miss had to go and grab Zhang Ma.
Zhang Ma didn’t hurt her anymore and slapped her hand away, “I still have to go serve the rice, being so dishonest so early in the morning, you should go up to your sister and whack you hard.”
Just before the Great Demon King Dai Yu Cicada grabbed her, Shi Wuwei, who was carrying a grass curtain as big as a pot lid with white buns all over it in both hands, came over.
Second Miss immediately burrowed behind Shi Wuwei.
Shi students are gentle and shy by nature, originally took more care of the second miss, and then because of the budding love for Dai Yucan, and then look at the second miss really look at his sister as if he was grabbed by her, and did not hide, but only coaxed her: “Yan Yan, you do not make a fuss, look at the baozi fell again.”
Then he saw Dai Yu Cicada huffing and puffing and gasping for breath, so angry that her face changed color.
But Miss Dai had lost sleep all night last night because of this thing called the great desires of men and women, and while it was true that she had lost her temper because of the newlywed couple of Ms. Zhu and Professor Dai at home, it was more because of him.
Now that she saw him, where could Ms. Dai face it?
She couldn’t even care about catching her hateful sister and turned her head away.
Second Miss breathes a sigh of relief.
Shi Wuwei turned to ask her seriously, ”Did you deliberately mess up and make your sister angry? Quickly go find her and apologize. She’s so good to you, you can’t bully her.”
Second Miss: “……”
Second Miss realized that she couldn’t even argue.
The whole family thought that she had bullied her sister.
Though she felt that Dai Yu Cicada was just a young girl’s shyness.
But she really shouldn’t have laughed so loudly.
It was wrong to laugh at someone who was shy and serious.
The second young miss quickly found her bearings and was honestly escorted in front of Dai Yu Cicada to apologize, solemnly apologizing and bowing her head.
Dai Yu Cicada didn’t care about her apologizing, pulling her into the shadows and threatening in a low voice, “You’re not allowed to tell the truth about what we’ve said!”
A question mark popped up on the top of Second Miss’s head, followed by the realization that it was referring to this discussion about whether or not there was a voice.
“Well, I sure as hell won’t say anything.” She immediately nodded her head in agreement.
Dai Yu Cicada didn’t believe her, “You can’t say anything to anyone! Mr. Su can’t say it either!”
Second Miss: “Uh-huh, I won’t say anything to anyone!”
The two sisters return and everyone sits down to eat.
Today’s breakfast is soy milk with savory buns.
It’s salty and spicy.
Second Miss spits out her little tongue fanning herself with the spice, but the soy milk is also hot, making it even spicier to drink.
Mr. Su sat next to her and slowly stirred and blew with a spoon to help her cool the soy milk faster.
Zhu Yanshu asked, “What did you do to your sister? Making her so angry.”
The second lady again to laugh, but thought can not laugh, to endure, hard to endure back, then choked, bun filling chili chunks choked into the nasal cavity, while coughing while going to the faucet there to wash the nose.
Mr. Su hurriedly followed the same, borrowed a handkerchief to wipe her face, quietly asked her: “What in the end?”
Second Miss elbowed him and asked him not to ask.
Where did Mr. Su want to know this? He just wanted to talk to Second Miss, so he smiled and softly asked after her, “Tell me quietly.”
Second Miss wiped the water from her face with his handkerchief, choking on her red eyes and the head of her red nose still wet with moisture.
“Not telling you.” She said.
Mr. Sue touched her somewhat cooler face and took the wet handkerchief, content.
The two returned to the table and the topic had changed.
The new topic was the vegetable fields in the school, where male students were needed to keep watch over the fields at night to prevent nearby villagers from stealing the vegetables.
The people in the small red building have not complained about the table meal is getting more and more barren, eggs can not be eaten every day, milk can not be drank every day, do the dishes in addition to chili is salted vegetables, green vegetables is the freshest vegetables, but not every day, can eat once a week is about the same.
There are no more stores on the streets. The dim sum stores, western cake stores, lo mei stores, preserved meat stores, wonton stores, noodle stalls …… and so on that used to fill the streets are all gone.
Grain stores, rice stores, noodle stores have also long been closed, the owners have long gone back to their hometowns, the storefronts have been smashed, the doors are broken, the windows are broken, and the inside has long been raided by the hungry people and the hooligans.
This city, in fact, does not produce grain ah.
Although the nearby villages have land, but only grow some fashionable fruits, peaches and plums, or fast harvesting vegetables, in addition to their own food, is specially picking a stretcher to pick to the city to sell vegetables.
There are fishing boats at the docks every day, and the grain and most of the fresh meat from cattle and sheep are brought in from outside the city.
Su Chunjun picked out all the fillings from the buns and only left the skin for the second young lady to eat, so that she wouldn’t choke on the spice again.
He said, “August is the wheat harvest season, but the grain can’t come in. Trains, cars, all the roads into the city have long been guarded tightly, soldiers guard the railroads and roads, and when they see cars coming, they stop the cars and trucks in the middle of the road, forcing the trains and cars to stop, they get on the cars and search them, and when they find out that it’s grain, they unload it on the ground.”
Not only grain, live chickens and ducks, live cows and sheep and pigs, all of them would be snatched away as soon as they were found.
Previously, Mayor Feng had shorted the treasury and intercepted funds in order to buy arms. But now that the arms had been sent to who knows where, the soldiers realized that there was no food in the battalion.
In order to avoid a mutiny, many of the troops that were originally stationed here drove away one by one. But there were still many troops who couldn’t leave in time, they lacked food, guns, everything, and if the top didn’t give it, they had to rob it themselves.
The people in the city are running out, but the people outside are also fleeing to this city.
Su Chunjun: “It’s not easy out there.”
It’s not going to be good anywhere.
There was a lack of food in the city, and the people were starting to starve.
The university was a little bit better, that’s because Principal Tang chose to build the school on a piece of wild land far away from the city, except for the place where the school was built, the rest of the land was all land.
Principal Tang’s family is a large landowner origin, see the land as life, so at that time is the largest land to buy, after buying all the circle as the school’s land.
Of course, there weren’t even that many students in the school, and there were only a few buildings – originally he was just trying to scam a paycheck, anyone else remember that?
So what was the rest of the land for?
Principal Tang had the bright idea of hiring nearby villagers to plant it. Plant vegetables, wheat, fruit trees, anything.
We can’t let the land go unused!
This is a school motto written by Principal Tang.
Later on, more and more students, more and more buildings were built, more and more teachers, and the spread became bigger and bigger.
But most of the school was still a vegetable field.
Students learn advanced knowledge on this side, a push window, downstairs is a compost, the stench.
It’s natural for the students to complain. The teachers have to complain too.
They’re talking about poetry over here, and the stench is coming from over there?
Principal Tang, however, is very good at justifying himself, saying “This is so that students don’t lose their life skills! Don’t forget your roots!”
Instead, he orders the whole school to learn to farm, to raise pigs and cows, chickens and ducks.
The girls could take it easy and learn to weave.
Such as Prof. Dai and Shi Wuwei, they all believed in the principal very much, and thought that all the principal’s doings were for the good of the students, and were all very meaningful.
And students from farming families are also very good at tending to the land, so all the land in the school grows very well, but also deliberately opened up paddy fields to grow rice, grow better than the villagers grow their own land.
Now the people lack food, no food, but the school is there ah.
At first, the school themselves enough to eat, but also willing to help the villagers and the people, so also give them food.
But there were too many hungry people, and when they heard that there was food and land in the school, more and more people came, and soon there was not enough food in the school.
People like Prof. Dai and Shi Wuwei were willing to help the villagers, willing to go hungry themselves, but also wanted others to have enough to eat.
But only the “heartless” Principal Tang realized that this would not work, because the school’s land was limited, and under the present circumstances, no one knew how long the food would be in short supply, nor did he know when the school’s stock of food would be enough to eat.
So, Tang ordered the principal no longer to the villagers to give food, not to sell them, all the food in the school, all the output of the field, all reserved for the teachers and students in the school to eat and use.
The villagers who used to be hired to work the fields were all dismissed and given two bags of potatoes each before they left.
All the land in the school was planted by the students themselves.
It is now very common for Shi Wuwei and his students to wear straw hats and work in the fields while attending classes. It is also common for the teachers to write on the ground with branches outside the pig pens where the pigs are kept.
But the villagers who had gone away, and the people who lived nearby, knew that there was food at the university. So they burrowed in and stole it while people were not looking.
At first, the students, out of kindness, didn’t really have the heart to stop them.
Until one group of villagers pushed down the wall of the pigsty, smashing two pigs and dragging a dead one away.
By the time the students arrived, it was too late, and in addition to the smashed pigs, several piglets were also injured.
Only then did the students rise to defend their pigsties, vegetable gardens, and grain.
So now the male students were organized into teams every night to guard the pig pens, sheep pens, cow pens, chicken coops, etc., as well as grain bins and vegetable plots.
to guard against thieves.
They also have a couple of dogs, which they plan to raise to help keep watch.
Although the students got into a flurry of activity, everyone here knew that this was just the beginning.
Su Chunjun: “It’s going to get worse in the future.”
Second Miss wiped her mouth as she ate two pieces of bun skin and drank the soybean milk that Mr. Su had helped her dry, in a small voice-but in fact audible to all.
She said, “Can we buy smuggled goods?”
The docks are in foreign hands now.
Foreign traders sell everything.
As long as they found the right doorway and had dollars in their hands, buying food shouldn’t be a problem.
Su Chunjun smiled and nodded, “This is the best way now. Mayor Feng is putting us in touch with foreign merchants, and now is the time to investigate which country’s merchants are more reliable and can actually buy grain.”
