Traveling through the famine years with the system to raise cubs

Chapter 27 Using Bamboo to Get Water



"Did mother tell you before that we are a family?" Jiang Ling looked at the three little guys in front of her and asked.

The three little fellows nodded in unison, and Jiang Ling continued: "Do you think that children without mothers are very pitiful?"

Before Jiang Ling finished speaking, Jiang Wenxi cried out with a "wow". She cried and grabbed Jiang Ling's arm and choked up, "Mother... mother, don't you want us?"

Jiang Ling was speechless, she patted Jiang Wenxi's head and said, "How could mother not want you?"

"But...but..." Jiang Wenxi wanted to say something, but was choked by his own tears.

"Wenxi doesn't cry, mother won't want you, it's this kid named Nianci, his mother has left him temporarily, mother hopes that the three of you can accept him and let him stay in our house for a while!"

As soon as Jiang Ling finished speaking, Jiang Wenxi stopped crying, and she asked tentatively with eyes still full of tears: "Mother... Mother, are you telling the truth? You really don't want us?"

"Yes, but you have to take good care of this new kid! This is the common little brother of the three of you! But, this matter is a secret. If anyone asks, you can't answer, you know?" Jiang Ling gently pulled Nian Ci to her side and said softly.

The three children nodded tacitly. The always bold Jiang Wenxi walked to Nian Ci's side. She blinked her watery eyes and said tentatively, "Nian Ci, hello! My name is Jiang Wenxi..."

Although Nian Ci was a little scared, she still bravely replied: "You... Hello, my name is Nian Ci."

Children always get along quickly, and the four of them have become one with each other in a short time.

Jiang Ling yawned loudly. She was a little tired after barely sleeping all night. She still managed to bake some shredded potato pancakes for the four children as their breakfast.

After eating, Jiang Yaojie and Jiang Suihe sensiblely asked Jiang Ling what he was going to do today.

Jiang Ling just wanted to go to sleep now, so he simply said to the two children: "Take a day off today and do nothing!"

Before the two children could continue to ask questions, Jiang Ling yawned and walked into the house.

This time Jiang Ling fell into a deep sleep, and when she opened her eyes again, it was already sunset.

Jiang Ling sat on the bed and stretched comfortably, put on her shoes and got off the ground with a satisfied face.

Although Jiang Ling didn't arrange for the child to do anything today, he opened the door and found something unusual.

There are a few more green wild vegetables in the corner, the three buckets are also full of water, the firewood pile seems to be higher, and there are several more washed clothes on the clothes rail.

"You guys did all of this?" Jiang Ling looked at the children in front of her in surprise and asked.

Seeing the four children nodding, Jiang Ling was relieved for a while.

When making dinner, Jiang Ling put a few extra handfuls of white rice on purpose, and took advantage of the four of them not paying attention, bought a little minced meat from the mall and put it in the chopped wild vegetables to make steamed wild vegetable balls.

After dinner, Jiang Ling hadn't thought of a particularly good way to drain the water. Although she had considered digging ditches to drain the water before, Lujia Village was too dry. The water in the ditches would definitely be absorbed by the dry land before it flowed down. .

Thinking of this, Jiang Ling was a little upset. She planned to go out and see if she could find any inspiration.

The ghost came to the front of the white-haired lady's cave again. During the day, the bamboo cut by the village chief was still scattered on the ground.

Jiang Ling picked up a piece of bamboo on the ground and looked at it for a long time, when suddenly an idea came out of her mind.

"That's right! You can dig a ditch and put bamboo under it to waterproof. Although some water will flow out along the gap, the loss is minimal. What's more, bamboo has excellent corrosion resistance. Even if it is soaked in water for two or three Years will rot!" Thinking of this, Jiang Ling looked towards the mountain, and not far away were countless bamboos as thick as the mouth of a bowl.

"Well, the amount of these bamboos should be enough. I can't say this method from my mouth, otherwise these people will definitely have doubts..." Thinking of this, Jiang Yaojie's slightly immature face appeared on Jiang Ling's face heart.

"Yes! Let Jiang Yaojie talk about this matter!" On the way back, Jiang Ling had already thought of all the plans.

At that time, Jiang Suhe and Jiang Wenxi were already sound asleep.Jiang Ling glanced at the two of them, tiptoed off the bed, and walked towards Jiang Yaojie's bedroom

"Yaojie, can I come in?" Jiang Ling asked in a low voice.

Soon, Jiang Yaojie's voice of consent came from inside, Jiang Ling gently opened the door, and Nian Ci had already fallen asleep snuggling up against Jiang Yaojie.

Just as Jiang Yaojie was about to open his mouth, Jiang Ling made a silent gesture and pointed out the window to signal Jiang Yaojie to speak.

Jiang Yaojie nodded, and walked out with Jiang Ling one after the other.

The heat of the day still hasn't dissipated, and even at night it's hot outside.

"Mother, what do you want from me?" Jiang Yaojie looked at Jiang Ling with some puzzlement.

"Yaojie, I'm really happy that you can recognize me as your mother, I know you are a sensible and obedient boy!"

Jiang Ling originally wanted to praise Jiang Yaojie, but when it came to the topic, Jiang Yaojie, who has always been sensitive, turned red-eyed.

He sniffed and didn't dare to look at Jiang Ling, and said in a tentative tone: "Mother, you...you...you don't want me anymore, I...I know there is another brother now, I It's the biggest one in the family again, mother, don't worry..."

"Yaojie, what are you talking about! When did I say I don't want you anymore?" Jiang Ling was a little confused by Jiang Yaojie's words for no reason, and she frowned and looked at Jiang Yaojie.

"I...then...then...then why did you say that just now?" Jiang Yaojie froze for a few seconds before stammering out this sentence.

Jiang Ling rubbed her temples helplessly again, "It seems that Jiang Yaojie is more sensitive than I thought!" Although Jiang Ling thought so in her heart, she didn't say it out loud.

She showed a gentle expression and spoke peacefully: "Because Yaojie is indeed excellent and worthy of praise, don't worry, you, Suihe, Wenxi and Nianci, the four of you are my mother's heart, and my mother will never want you of!"

When Jiang Yaojie heard Jiang Ling's answer, he subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. For him, even if he lived separately, he was uneasy. Although he was a boy, he was not Jiang's biological child after all. Will become a wild child without father and mother.

Jiang Ling could see all his small thoughts, but it would not be overnight to change this state, but Jiang Ling was confident that he would definitely get rid of Jiang Yaojie's sensitive problem.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ling continued: "Yaojie, you are our eldest son, and in many cases you bear much greater responsibilities than Suihe and Wenxi..."

"Mother! Mother! You... You must be terminally ill, right?" Jiang Yaojie blurted out.

After hearing Jiang Yaojie's words, Jiang Ling's face was full of black lines. She looked at Jiang Yaojie puzzled and asked, "Yaojie, why do you think I'm terminally ill?"
