Chapter 170: Chapter 163: Deserved

Jiang Xiaoxiao was excited and gave Feng Guoqiang a call.

When Feng Guoqiang heard it was the famous Jiang Xiaoxiao, he had heard about her from his brother-in-law.

Qin Ming and Jiang Yue’s connections with Mr. Wang were all because of this little sister-in-law and younger sister, this was the real talent.

People actually came to him for help, he was naturally more than willing.

Without a word, they agreed to contact by phone tomorrow.

Jiang Xiaoxiao pondered, this was a one-time deal.

Now just waiting for Feng Guoqiang’s reply.

This shouldn’t be a problem.

Jiang Xiaoxiao said goodbye to Li Dahu.

"Captain, I’m going back, I’ll come down again tomorrow to wait for the call. You’re not going out tomorrow, are you?"

The production team is the only place with a phone, nowhere else has one.

This was one of the inconvenient aspects.

Li Dahu shook his head, "No! The road is open, but it’s not thawed yet, we can’t do anything, and right now we can’t even eat, what kind of work is there to do! Just come by, come and find me at my house anytime."

They’re worried on the farm now too.

No grain, who wouldn’t be worried.

"Alright, Captain, I’ll come again tomorrow, I’m going back."

Jiang Xiaoxiao prepared to go back, the round trip wasn’t short, the road is hard to walk, otherwise the sky will be too dark soon.

The road might be even less safe.

"Wait a minute, I’ll find someone to take you back, going up the mountain alone is too dangerous."

"Captain, no need, no need! I can go back."

Jiang Xiaoxiao was eager and shouted, but Li Dahu had already turned around and saw Fang Peizhong and Hong Mei walking over.

"You two come over, take Jiang Xiaoxiao up the mountain, go and come back quickly."

"I’m talking to you! Fang Peizhong, Hong Mei, did you hear?"

Jiang Xiaoxiao held her forehead, what bad luck!

Anyone but Fang Peizhong to send her.

Letting him send her! This really annoyed her.

Looking for trouble for no reason.

"No need, no need, Captain, really no need. I can do it myself."

Jiang Xiaoxiao almost said directly not to.

"How could it be? You’re a young lady, what if something happens, can I still be the captain? Don’t say anymore, Fang Peizhong, Liu Hongmei, you two take Jiang Xiaoxiao back to the forest farm, go and come back quickly."

Li Dahu felt he couldn’t just let Jiang Xiaoxiao leave.

A young girl is too risky, he, as production captain, must take responsibility.

Fang Peizhong and Liu Hongmei were so hungry they couldn’t even take a step.

Now, food has been distributed on the farm, but their small collective’s rations for this winter are simply not enough to eat, initially it was a meal of dry rice, then it became a meal of thin porridge, now it’s just a meal of one bowl of gruel, so thin it reflected a shadow.

The two were so hungry their chests touched their backs, how could they walk?

Still sending them up the mountain.

Fang Peizhong glanced at Jiang Xiaoxiao, his mouth even more disdainful.

"Her? Captain! I’ve been hungry for three days, I have no strength at all, if you’re not afraid I’ll starve to death on the mountain halfway, and have to expend effort to carry me down, then let us go! Ugh, starving to death!"

With sighs, Fang Peizhong looked at Jiang Xiaoxiao unfavorably.

Jiang Xiaoxiao seemed to have lived well through this winter, she looked the same before going up the mountain, and now she still looked the same.

She hadn’t lost any weight.

Is the forest farm life that good, do they have special meals?

Liu Hongmei saw Fang Peizhong’s attitude, she too was unwilling to go.

"Captain, we haven’t had a full meal all winter, can’t even walk two steps, Captain, really can’t walk more than a few steps. Captain, you better send someone else!"

With each word gasped, her appearance showed she couldn’t walk two steps.

Li Dahu sighed, there’s no way, nobody has enough food.

Not to mention others, their family ate porridge every meal, he heard green lights flashing before his eyes.

He now couldn’t properly direct these guys.

Turning his head, he saw his eldest and youngest sons walking together, the two kids’ faces looking pale from hunger.

"Da Niu, Er Niu, come over!"

At this time he could only let his own sons go, luckily they were nineteen and fifteen, both had been seasoned, not the kind unable to go out, and the brothers could keep each other company.

He was quite reassured.

"Dad, what’s up?"

"You two take Jiang Xiaoxiao back to the forest farm, go and come back quickly!"

Li Chengwu and Li Chengwen nodded, "Comrade Jiang, let’s go, we’ll take you."

Li Dahu’s sons were like him, honest folks, starved themselves until sweat streamed down, yet still restrained their inner hunger, taking Jiang Xiaoxiao up the mountain.

Jiang Xiaoxiao truly felt sorry in her heart, she was burdening these two kids.

Even though she was younger by a year than Li Chengwu, she considered herself an elder psychologically.

"Go on, don’t dawdle. Tomorrow let a male comrade come down with you, otherwise I’ll personally scold them, can’t believe big men don’t care for a lady, are they men or not?"

Li Dahu was annoyed that Jiang Xiaoxiao had come down the mountain alone.

"Captain, actually Song Moting brought me here today before going to the county. He had business to handle, otherwise he wouldn’t have let me come alone."

Had to explain!

Otherwise, people at the forest farm would be criticized.

"Alright then, go on!"

Jiang Xiaoxiao and Li Chengwen and Li Chengwu headed up the mountain.

Li Chengwen stepped falteringly, too hungry to move his feet, almost fell headfirst onto the ground.

Li Chengwu quickly caught him.

Li Dahu’s heart ached, how could he not care for his sons.

All because of this famine.

Fang Peizhong and Liu Hongmei sneered, it was self-inflicted.

A production captain didn’t know what kind of madness this was.

Jiang Xiaoxiao, a mere youth, wasn’t anyone precious, why protect her so much.

Letting his two sons suffer, serves him right!

Fang Peizhong and Liu Hongmei hurried away.

Glad they didn’t go, otherwise they’d have suffered.

Jiang Xiaoxiao walked three miles with Li Chengwen and Li Chengwu, the brothers.

Just saw them both sweating profusely, faces pale.

Just wanted to suggest a rest.

Saw Li Chengwen fall headfirst to the ground.

Li Chengwu quickly tried to help his brother.

Jiang Xiaoxiao pushed him aside and carefully checked.

Gave a sigh of relief.

"What’s wrong with my brother?"

Li Chengwu didn’t know what Jiang Xiaoxiao examined, just knew the comrade knew a bit more.

Jiang Xiaoxiao pinched Li Chengwen’s acupoint, and after a short while, Li Chengwen came to.

Fished out a piece of dried peach, stuffed it into his mouth.

"He’s fainted from hunger."

Li Chengwu finally relaxed.

Li Chengwen had something in his mouth, couldn’t help but chew it, saliva formed, he swallowed quickly, feeling revived.

Awkwardly looked at Jiang Xiaoxiao, "Comrade Jiang, sorry, I..."

Even at 15 he understood now, every household had no food to eat.

This sweet dried peach, who knew how long she’d saved it, giving it to him meant Comrade Jiang herself would have less.

Right now, who’d want to take out their own food for others, even if it was a grass root, they wouldn’t give it away.

Let alone this sweet dried peach.

"How long has it been since your family ate a proper meal?"

Jiang Xiaoxiao felt heartache, how hungry had they become like this.

Li Chengwen’s face turned red, "It’s not just us, every household has no food, my dad says after a few months then we’ll get through it. Once we harvest the rice, we can fill our bellies. And then once spring comes, with the grass growing, we can gather wild vegetables, roots, it’d help.

Just tough it out these two months. It’s okay, I’m young and strong, not afraid of hunger."

Stomach growled.

Jiang Xiaoxiao sighed.
