Chapter 500 The Orphan Abandoned by the Times 37
This year is the first year that everyone moved to Yuancheng Village
But there is no New Year atmosphere in the whole Yuancheng Village
As soon as I went out that day, the biting cold wind seemed to blow the skin off my face.
Children who don't want to stay at home and want to go out to play
Just two minutes after leaving the house, he ran back home and shivered in front of the brazier.
Gu Nuanyi and Chen Hanyu also stayed at home and did not go out.
Gu Nuanyi is weaving a basket with bamboo strips, and Chen Hanyu is knitting a sweater with needle and thread.
There was a brazier between the two of them, with an iron net on top, where they were roasting oranges, chestnuts and sweet potatoes.
The aroma of chestnuts and sweet potatoes penetrated their noses.
Chen Hanyu knitted the sweater more and more slowly, smelling the increasingly sweet scent in the air.
He put down his sweater and poked the sweet potato.
After confirming that it was cooked, he picked up one, peeled it and put it in the bowl. He also took a spoon and put it in Gu Nuanyi's hand.
"Sister Gu, it's cooked, eat it quickly. It smells sweet, so it must be delicious."
He quickly peeled another one for himself, but he didn't use the bowl or spoon.
I put it directly into my mouth, and it was so sweet that I squinted my eyes.
“So sweet and delicious!”
Gu Nuanyi also scooped a spoonful into her mouth and nodded.
As expected, the sweet potatoes are produced by Space Spirit Field, sweet and sticky.
I had just taken two bites when I heard someone outside holding a gong and banging it while shouting, "Everyone please go to the village committee square for a meeting now. Everyone please go to the village committee square for a meeting now."
Gu Nuanyi and Chen Hanyu looked at each other and ate the sweet potatoes in two or three bites.
He wrapped himself up so that only his eyes were exposed and then he slowly walked towards the village committee.
There are many such costumes.
Almost everyone is like this, they can't recognize who is who just by looking at one pair of eyes.
The clothes we wore had been there for years and were not warm enough, so we had to put on all the clothes layer by layer.
There are also people who go out wrapped in quilts
The villagers stood there, pacing and stamping their feet: "It's so cold, what's the matter that requires us to come here?"
"Yes, this movement will consume food. We don't have much food at home. It's better to lie down and save a meal."
"When is the time to talk? It's freezing."
Just when everyone was getting impatient, Cheng Deyi walked up to the stage with a smile on his face.
"Everyone, please be patient. I called you all here because I have something good to tell you!!"
Good news? Everyone suddenly became quiet, and all their eyes were focused on Cheng Deyi.
"It is indeed good news. The relief food we applied for has arrived. Each person will receive two kilograms of brown rice, two kilograms of dark flour, two kilograms of potatoes and two kilograms of sweet potatoes. Everyone should save some of it. After the spring, some wild vegetables should grow. We can hold on until the wheat in the field matures."
The crowd immediately became lively, and the windproof scarves and hats were torn off.
He looked at Cheng Deyi excitedly and shouted at the top of his voice
"Village chief, you really distributed food to us, that's great!"
"Where is the food? When will it be distributed?"
Cheng Deyi stretched out his hand and pointed downwards: "Everyone calm down, the food is already in the village committee, everyone line up to get it, everyone can get it, don't worry!"
Everyone was so excited that they only heard the key words: food is in the village committee
So they swarmed towards the gate of the village committee, scrambling to squeeze in.
Before the person in front of them entered, the person behind them pushed the person in front of them: "Hurry up, you guys in front, hurry up!!"
"I can't move! Please make way for me!"
"I won't let you, I want to go in first"
The door was so small that everyone was trying to squeeze in.
I want to get food quickly.
As a result, no one was able to get in first.
The secretary and the accountant stood in front of the warehouse and guarded the door together.
Looking at the villagers who were excited to the point of going crazy
Accountant Yan Su swallowed his saliva and said, "Brother Ming, why do I feel like our location is a little dangerous..."
The secretary pushed up his glasses and said, "It's okay. They still don't dare to rob openly!"
Gu Nuanyi and Chen Hanyu stood silently at the back, watching the crowd in front of them
Chen Hanyu tilted his head and whispered, "Didn't the village chief say that everyone can get one? Why are you in such a hurry? Now that everyone is crowded together, no one can get in."
Without waiting for Gu Nuanyi to answer, he answered again: "Maybe they also feel that it is too cold outside and want to get it earlier and go home earlier."
Gu Nuanyi pulled up her scarf to cover her entire face: "This year is indeed a little colder than before."
Cheng Deyi couldn't get to the front of the crowd, so he stood there anxiously and shouted, "Don't push, there is food, everyone can get it, don't push, please line up to get it!!!"
But no one heard it at all. No, it should be said that some people heard it, but the people behind me kept pushing forward, so I had to squeeze forward too.
"Why are you guys in front of me blocking the door and not going in?" a man shouted angrily, "Why do you have to squeeze in? Why can't you queue up?"
There's no point shouting, the front is still crowded
The two people stuck in the door were also in great pain. They wanted to go in but couldn't, and they wanted to go out but couldn't.
The people behind me kept pushing me, and it hurt even though I was wearing a lot of clothes!!
The two blamed each other: "It's all your fault. Why were you pushing so hard? Now we're stuck."
"Then don't push it!"
The two snorted at each other, turned their heads and held their breath as they squeezed forward.
With the help of the people behind me, I finally got out of the door.
The two of them rushed towards the warehouse with joyful faces and shining eyes.
"Ah!!" The two ran so excitedly that they failed to brake and directly knocked down the secretary Ming Wenbai who was guarding the door.
"Ouch~~ My butt!!" Ming Wenbai lay on the ground with his legs up in the air and wailed
Yan Su quickly stepped forward to help the man up: "Are you okay? Do you want to go to the hospital?"
Ming Wenbai moved around for a while and said, "It's not a big deal. Fortunately, I wore thick clothes."
Seeing that the gate was finally open, the other villagers rushed to the warehouse.
They all shouted at once: "Let's get food! Let's get food!!"
Yan Su shouted loudly: "Line up and take your tickets one by one. We still need to register. It's too chaotic for you to register. Everyone line up."
The villagers moved a few times and finally squeezed to the front, not wanting to run to the back.
The ones behind saw that the ones in front were loose and pushed forward again.
Secretary Ming Wenbai pushed his glasses which were crooked by the crowd and shouted: "Those who don't go to queue up don't have to take it. The warehouse door will be opened when the queue is ready. If you don't mind the cold, you can squeeze in here."
Cheng Deyi finally squeezed to the front after much effort.
"I guarantee that everyone will get it. If anyone doesn't get it, I'll give him my share."
Under the leadership of the trio, the team was able to successfully rank
Gu Nuanyi and Chen Hanyu were still standing at the back. The two kids were not in a hurry at all, as they would get their money eventually.
