After learning that the famine was about to come, the old lady couldn't sit still and began to think about the food issue.

It is not good to expect the harvest in the field. The fields have been drought for so long and there has not been any signs of rain yet. This year's harvest will definitely not be good.

The old lady went back to the house to count the deposits at home, intending to prepare as soon as possible and spend money to buy grain.

After work this day, the old lady wrapped herself and Lin Yuan in thick clothes when she got home, and then went out with Lin Yuan on her back.

Lin Yuan looked at the old lady who had been carrying her for more than ten miles with her in pain, sweating, her originally neatly combed head was messy, and the steaming heat was still emitting.

"My mother, I'll go by myself, you can rest."

The old lady ignored her granddaughter's request and was still fast.

"I'm not tired of breast milk, so I'll arrive at the county town immediately. When I get milk, I'll buy a donkey for me to roll and eat."

Lin Yuan was a little helpless, afraid that an old lady who could not control her will fall, so she didn't dare to slap her around, so she had to continue being pressed by the old lady on her back.

Fortunately, the old lady's body has been conditioned by Lingquan water these days. Recently, she has been full of food from the big pot and has strength. Lin Yuan, who has only more than 20 kilograms of clothes, has not been difficult for the old lady to carry her back.

"Milk, where can we buy food?"

Lin Yuan, who was being carried by the old lady, couldn't help but feel curious and asked in a low voice in the darkness.

The old lady didn't treat her granddaughter as a child who didn't know anything. Perhaps she was a little nervous when walking at night, so she started talking to Lin Yuan.

"We are going to Old Man Song's house in the west of the county town. In the early years, we sold things to him for embroidering milk. This old man had some tricks. He used to eat supplements like wheat milk essence. He had to buy them in the supply and marketing cooperative and had to ask for tickets. Old Man Song could get them wherever he could add some money."

"Along with your father's pension over the years, the family has saved a lot of money. I think that the food is more important in the future, so I plan to buy all the money and stock up on the grain. Before the famine has started, I can buy food much cheaper now."

The old lady estimated that she had saved more than 200 yuan in her pocket. She planned to buy most of the coarse grains, and the rest were all fine grains.

The child's stomach is so sweet that he will definitely not be able to eat coarse grains. I don't know if Old Man Song can get so much food.

It was dark early in winter. Lin Yuan estimated that it was around 7 o'clock in the evening. Looking at the light not far away, the grandparents and grandchildren were sure to arrive in the county town.

"It's better to have an electric light, it's bright. I don't know when we can use this good thing in rural areas."

Looking at the bright houses on both sides of the street, the old lady was full of envy.

The old lady had done too many embroidery work in the early years and had already lost her eyes. She lighted kerosene lamps the size of soybeans at home, but she couldn't see anything clearly at night.

"It will be used in a few years."

Lin Yuan comforted that according to what he saw in his dream, in a few years, their village will be able to connect to the wires in about sixty and five years, but there are very few that can be used, and only the brigade and the village chief’s home installed lights.

For Lin Yuan, who is used to the bright lights of the 21st century, she is also envious, even if it is just an ordinary incandescent lamp.

The county town is not very big, and the grandparents and grandchildren quickly arrived at the west end of the city.

Along the way, the old lady led her skillfully to avoid several waves of patrols and stopped in front of a somewhat old courtyard house.

The old lady put down Lin Yuan on her back first, gasped, and then stepped forward and knocked on the door.

After a while, there was movement inside the door. Lin Yuan couldn't help but feel nervous when he watched the old lady joining the underground party.

Now she is catching speculation everywhere, and she is really worried about being unsafe.

The door quickly opened, and the old lady grabbed Lin Yuan, who was observing the enemy situation everywhere, and got into the crack of the door.

The one who came to open the door was Song Weibing, the youngest son of Old Man Song. The two sons in front of Old Man Song had already been separated from each other. Now he and his wife live in this small courtyard with their youngest son who also likes to do business.

Song Weibing was obviously very familiar with the old lady who often came to his house to buy things, so he led the old lady to the main courtyard without saying much.

"Auntie, you are here to buy supplements for your granddaughter to nourish your body. The two cans of malt milk semen I finished eating so quickly? This is what the aunt always talked about? Oh, it's so good to raise and looks good. When you grow up, you must be a little beauty."

Song Weibing, who was seventeen or eighteen years old, was still a little talkative. He turned his head and saw Lin Yuan being held. The little girl's face was red because of the cold weather. He saw that his hands were itchy and couldn't help but pinch his chubby little face.

Lin Yuan was pinched and felt a little painful. He couldn't help but glared at him, in return, Song Weibing grinned his teeth and smiled at her.

"I won't buy supplements this time, but it's OK if I have more."

Although the good granddaughter will not get sick after having good health and body water, the old lady is always generous to her granddaughter. Anyway, she will not break if she buys it. She will eat it slowly after she collects it.

When she found out whether the old lady came to buy food this time or a considerable amount, Song Weibing was immediately surprised.

You should know that the countryside is eating big pot rice now. Unlike the ones distributed in the city, which are not enough to eat, they have to buy them privately. Song Weibing can't figure out what the old lady buys food.

However, although he is talkative, he is not a silly person. He still knows whether he is from the business or the wherever he is from, and he doesn't ask much about it.

Song Weibing was still a little excited when he received a big deal of thousands of kilograms of grain. When he was a child, he was determined to be a big businessman like his father, but unfortunately he was born at the wrong time.

Especially not long ago, seeing that the situation was not right, he was already preparing to wash his hands with his father and find a factory to work. Unexpectedly, he would encounter a big deal before he completely stopped. Song Weibing began to figure out the source of goods.

Old Man Song was quite calm. Although he had seen big scenes, he could guess the reason why the old lady bought food and garrisoned her.

Since the eldest son is in transportation, he is quite clear about the situation in other places. During this period, Old Man Song also analyzed from his son's words that the next year is probably not good.

Some time ago, he listened to the radio and heard reports of the grain yield per mu of 80,000 yuan and was still amused. Later, when he thought about it carefully, he felt something was wrong.

With natural disasters and man-made disasters, it is certain that food shortage in rural areas will be short of money, and the city may not be much better.

Old Man Song admired the old lady's foresight.

You should know that most people in the country are now immersed in the fanaticism of the Great Leap to launch satellites, and not many people can see the hidden dangers here.

"Fine grains are easy to deal with, but the amount of coarse grains is too large, and some are too eye-catching."

Old Man Song thought about it, but he did not refuse the business.

Although it was a bit troublesome to handle, I knew the old lady for more than 20 years and knew the situation of her family. If the orphan and widowed mother could help, it would be said that the amount of food was life-saving food.

Besides, their family also had to start preparing to stockpile grain, and it would be a matter of getting more grain.

The old lady, who had the right words, was relieved. Although the food she bought here must be slightly more expensive than on the black market, she still knew how much trouble and risks were there when she got such a large amount of food.

It’s more expensive. She doesn’t have to worry about spending the money she saved over the years. She can receive pensions every month, but she doesn’t lack money.

The old lady who solved the big problem bought Lin Yuan a donkey and rolled in, and also filled the 100 or 200 kilograms of fine grain stored in Old Man Song's house.

Looking at the bag of white flour and a large bag of white rice, the old lady was satisfied.

As for the coarse grains that had been deposited, they were waiting for Old Man Song to bring the grains and she would come and take them back.

The old lady was carrying two bags of food and preparing to leave, intending to put it away with the granddaughter's sleeve when she left the county town. But Song Weibing didn't know. Looking at the old and young, how could she feel assured to let the old lady carry such a heavy thing, so she pushed the bicycle to deliver the goods to her door.

Seeing that the young man was so enthusiastic, the old lady refused, but she couldn't say that she had cheating methods, so she could only agree to ask Song Weibing for help.

All the way to Shanglin Village, the villagers almost fell asleep at this time. In addition, the location of the Lin family house was a bit off when it was built, and there were no other families within 50 meters. Now it is convenient to do things.

"Auntie Lin, you don't have to rush to the county town for the next coarse grains. I'll send them to you when the grain arrives. I'll guarantee that they won't be noticed, so I can save you another trip."

Song Weibing parked his bicycle outside and carried two bags of food into the house.

Seeing that the old lady was with her granddaughter in the family and there was no man in the family who could make her feel excited, Song Weibing reminded her a little worriedly.

The county town has not been too stable recently. If you walk too much at night, you may not have to worry about something.

The old lady didn't refuse. At most, she would save a lot of trouble if she added some travel expenses.

Although you can get the food back by using the universe in your good granddaughter's sleeve, you have to avoid some eyes and ears, which is very inconvenient.

Now, when Song Weibing delivers it to her, he will put it directly into the heart. Even if the family buys grain, the village will not be caught.

Song Weibing was originally worried about the old lady where to hide the food she bought, but seeing that the old lady was smiling mysteriously, he guessed that there might be some secret base, so he didn't ask much.

Although Lin Yuan was still angry that Song Weibing pinched her face, he decided to give him some rewards because he had helped a lot.

With a bowl of hot water poured by the old lady, Lin Yuan quietly added some spiritual spring water into it.

When Lin Yuan met the old lady's conscious gaze, she couldn't help but laugh.
