"Uncle Jiang, you are this"

"Ye Lin, that's right. A few relatives of the family have lost food. I'll take two packs of sweet potatoes back!"

"The food is out of stock so soon?"

Ye Lin frowned. You must know that half of this month has passed, and it would be unreasonable to lose food at this time.

Either Uncle Jiang’s relatives concealed anything from him, or they made it casually, so there was no food so quickly.

But no matter which one, it is not a good thing for Uncle Jiang.

Uncle Jiang was just helping them, but now what is this? This is not helping them at all, but supporting them.

"Well! I came to my house to borrow food last night. Your aunt gave them some, but that little food is enough for what!"

After hearing Uncle Jiang say that, Ye Lin frowned and said, "Uncle Jiang, the amount of food I will give you in the future is limited. Every month, every month, every month, every month, every month, every day, every day, I don't care who you give it to, there will be so much."

"Uh! Ye Lin, you are"

You should know that Ye Lin never limited his amount before. As long as he needs it, he basically gave as much as he wants.

"Uncle Jiang, you also know the current food shortage, so I can't do anything about it. Anyway, there's only so much in a month. You keep your own food and give it to others, so I can't take care of it."

There is no way, Ye Lin can only do this bad guy by himself. He knows that Uncle Jiang is a good person, but sometimes he suffers too much as a good person.

Just like his relatives, at the beginning, Uncle Jiang took the initiative to help, just helping him a little every month.

But now! The appetite is getting bigger and bigger, and the help is no longer possible. I come to my house to ask for it, but Uncle Jiang will not refuse. Basically, I give it if I can.

This is not a good thing for Uncle Jiang, and Ye Lin is afraid that this will become a habit.

"Ye Lin, can this be compatible? This time, I will limit the quantity next time."

"No, Uncle Jiang, I think you know that I have always been the only one."

Uncle Jiang knew of course, but Ye Lin gave too little, twenty kilograms of white flour, fifty kilograms of cornmeal, and five hundred kilograms of sweet potatoes.

It is more than enough for their families to eat these, but it is not enough to give them to relatives, even if they give them all, they are not enough.

"this"

Uncle Jiang could only smile bitterly.

"Uncle Jiang, during the three-year difficult period, it was a little better than now, right? Or it was similar to now. I would like to ask, how many relatives did you help in a month at that time?"

Hearing Ye Lin’s question, Uncle Jiang thought for a while and said, “It’s about 500 kilograms of sweet potatoes per month!”

"Then I ask you, how much do you help in a month now?"

"Well"

Ye Lin's words made Uncle Jiang stunned for a moment, yes! He had never thought about this. If Ye Lin hadn't asked this today, he would have never settled the account.

This calculation really scared him. You should know that the current food price was several times, or even ten times that of that time.

Not to mention the price, there is too much more food than that time.

In the past, the family could only help with a hundred kilograms of sweet potatoes a month, but now! A month, the family only had twenty or thirty kilograms of white flour, and a hundred kilograms of corn flour and a hundred kilograms of sweet potatoes a month.

"Ye Lin, I"

"Uncle Jiang, I know you won't refuse, but sometimes you have to learn to refuse."

"Oh!" Uncle Jiang sighed.

"Of course, if you insist on giving, I won't stop you, but have you ever thought about it? If you continue like this, you will raise a group of borers and a group of lees."

"I understand Ye Lin, I will tell them, but I still have to help this month, starting from next month! I will tell them that food is in short supply now."

"Okay, you can do it yourself!"

Ye Lin has never been harsh on Uncle Jiang, but he doesn't want Uncle Jiang, a good man, to be hurt.

"Well! I know how to do it."

"It's good to know. As for the food, you can do it yourself! You can pull as much as you want."

Since Uncle Jiang has accepted his opinion, Ye Lin doesn't care because he believes Uncle Jiang.

"I'll just pull 500 kilograms of sweet potatoes today! I won't pull anything else."

"I said, you can do it yourself, and the food is yours."

Uncle Jiang did what he said, so he put ten bags of sweet potatoes away. Not to mention white flour, he didn't even pull the cornmeal.

Seeing Uncle Jiang leave, Ye Lin shook his head and smiled bitterly. Good people are sometimes not easy to be a human being! This is not to say that good people are not good.

But good people are more likely to be used by others, and Uncle Jiang is like this.

After Uncle Jiang left, Ye Lin fed Erhuang and others, and then went into the house to take out some of the food.

This is basically what Ye Lin has to do every day. He will collect grain money every night, then withdraw some grain, and feed Erhuang and them.

After everything was done, Ye Lin locked the door and went back.

"Woof, woof, woof."

Every time Ye Lin comes back from outside, the first one who follows him is always Dahuang.

"Rhubarb, have you eaten?" Ye Lin rubbed Rhubarb's head.

"Woom."

"Oh! I've eaten it, okay, just go and play after eating! I haven't eaten it yet!"

"Brother Ye Lin."

Maybe I heard Ye Lin and Dahuang talking! The little girl ran out of the house.

"Xiao Ai." Ye Lin squatted down and picked up the little girl and asked, "Have you brought you something delicious?"

"Yeah!" the little girl nodded quickly.

"What have you taken?"

Hearing Ye Lin’s question, the little girl said with her fingers: “There are milk candies, peach crisps, jerky meat, and peanut seeds.”

"Yeah, is it delicious?"

"Yeah! It's so delicious."

Ye Lin carried the little girl into the main hall. The food was already arranged and Li Ran was serving rice.

"Hey! Have rice today?" Ye Lin asked.

"Why, don't you want to eat it? Then I'll go and distill a steamed bun for you."

"No mom, I didn't stop eating rice, I just didn't expect to eat rice."

In fact, Ye Lin’s family does not have much rice, and rice only accounts for 10% of the monthly food.

There are four people in Ye Lin's family. Each of them has only ten kilograms of grain per month, while Li Ran has twenty-one kilograms, and a total of fifty-one kilograms.

Twenty percent of the white flour, that is, about ten kilograms, ten percent of the rice, that is, five kilograms, and the rest are coarse grains.

The reason why I am short of food now is that I can buy all the coarse grains from before, but now I can't. The coarse grains now include corn flour, sorghum noodles, dried sweet potatoes and fresh sweet potatoes.

"You don't drink rice porridge, so you can't throw away these rice! So I made the rice."

Li Ran is right! No one in Ye Lin’s family drinks rice porridge, but they all like to drink millet porridge. Then, five kilograms of rice per month are basically nowhere to be used.

"Mom, no one drinks the rice porridge, but there are people eating the rice! Do you think so?"

"Yes, Auntie, the rice is delicious." Li Ting said the first.

"Auntie, I like to eat white rice." The little girl said in Ye Lin's arms.

"Hahaha, why don't you like to eat?" Ye Qi pointed at the little girl's nose.

How can the first uncle's family compete with Ye Lin's family? Not to mention rice, they can't eat enough coarse grains every day. Fortunately, the little girl can come to Ye Lin's house for free, otherwise she would have to starve every day.

"Eat now!"

Ye Lin pulled a chair over and put the little girl on the chair and said.

"Have a meal."

When Li Ran said to eat, the little girl picked up the chopsticks and went to pick up the fish.

"Girl, you can't eat this. If there are thorns, don't get stuck." Ye Lin quickly stopped the little girl and grabbed a chicken thigh for her and put it in her bowl.

"Oh!" the little girl nodded, but her eyes were still staring at the fish.

Ye Lin shook his head and said, "This is how you eat chicken thighs first, I'll help you pick out the fish bones before eating."

"Thank you, Brother Ye Lin."

The little girl likes to eat fish like a cat, but she is too young and she is stuck every time she eats fish, but she still can't stop her from eating it.

Seeing the little girl eating chicken thighs voraciously, Ye Lin said to Li Ran: "Mom, why didn't you make braised pork today? This girl is greedy."

"I don't know if she came here today, so she was not prepared. Let's do it tomorrow! I'll do it tomorrow night."

"Auntie, I want to eat a big bowl of braised pork." The little girl said vaguely while eating chicken legs.
