Chapter 2032 Deliver food in advance

After Lu Xiaoxiao sat on the kang for half an hour, she felt that her hands and feet had regained consciousness, so she moved the kang table aside and lay down on the kang.

It's so comfortable. It's so comfortable. If lying down for a long time wasn't bad for people's health, I would definitely lie on the kang all winter.

"Squeak...pull...bang bang, please pay attention, everyone, please pay attention, I have something to inform you.

I just received news from above that it will snow heavily in a few days, so we are asked to deliver the food in advance.

This afternoon all the male laborers gathered in the warehouse to help load the grain to be handed over.

I'm repeating, just now I..."

After Lu Xiaoxiao heard the words coming from the loudspeaker, she understood what was going on, but was the food delivered this year still the same as last year? Lu Xiaoxiao was particularly curious.

So she planned to go and have a look in the afternoon.

After lunch, Lu Xiaoxiao took out the large cotton-padded jacket she wore last winter from the space and put it on, then she went out and walked towards the grain drying field.

When she came to the grain drying field, she found that there were many people gathered around the grain drying field. It seemed that she was not the only one who was curious about how much grain would be handed in this year.

"Captain, will we turn in the same amount of food this year as last year?" an old man asked the captain.

"yes."

"Isn't there a reduction in production this year? Why do we still have to pay so much?"

"That's what the higher-ups told me, and I don't know."

"Hey, after paying for the food, the food in the village is not enough. What should I do now?"

The people in the grain drying field were all silent after hearing the old man's words, because their mood was as helpless as the old man's and full of confusion about the future.

"Okay, don't be so discouraged. The higher-ups have said that our production will be reduced this year and we will be given relief food, so you don't have to worry about not having food to eat."

The people in the grain drying field did not feel happy at all after hearing the captain's words, because the relief food was pitifully small compared with the food they handed in, and it was not enough for their family to eat for a month. How could they be happy?

Get up.

When Lu Xiaoxiao looked at everyone's sad, lost and hesitant expressions, she felt really uncomfortable, but she couldn't help them. It wasn't that she was selfish, but that the current environment was like this, so everything had to go as it should.

nature.

"Okay, now is not the time to feel uncomfortable. Work quickly. We have to hand over the food early tomorrow morning. There is no time for us to delay." The captain said to everyone in the drying field.

After hearing the captain's words, everyone in the grain drying field began to work. Although they were unwilling to hand over the grain, they knew that no matter how unwilling they were, the grain would eventually have to be handed over, so they could only endure the heartache and pack the grain.

Bag, hand it over.

When the captain saw everyone starting to work, he walked to Lu Xiaoxiao and said to Lu Xiaoxiao: "Xiaoxiao, I have something to ask you. Can you go with me to a place where no one is around?"

Lu Xiaoxiao nodded after hearing the captain's words, and then followed the captain towards a deserted place.

She asked the captain when he stopped: "Captain, what do you want from me?"

"Xiaoxiao, do you remember that time about selling maltose?"

"Remember."

"I came to you today just to ask you to help me buy food with the money from selling maltose. You also know that it is too difficult for us to buy food with money, so I want you to help buy food."
