Cill was digging through the dirt and thinking about it.
She thought of many ways, such as running to the battlefield to pick up guns from those dead soldiers, or sneaking into the army to steal one, or finding a way to make one herself.
She thought of about six or seven solutions, but in the end she didn't implement any of them.
Because all her energy was focused on the food that she and Didice had worked so hard to dig up from the forest.
Cill was standing in his house, looking down at the two baskets of things that had just been dug up from the forest, and Diddish stood beside her, pouting with her lips in her skirt.
After a cursory glance, he saw that the two baskets combined for six things, two potatoes, a sweet potato, a taro tree, and a pumpkin.
Ciel looked at these things and pursed his lips and thought for a while, then turned his head and told Diddis, "Diddis, you quickly take a shovel and loosen the dirt in the yard and dig a few holes, we have planted all these things."
Didis was astonished when she heard this, and asked, "But Miss Ciel, if we grow all these things, what will we eat at night?"
"Diddis, we can eat that pumpkin at night, we only need seeds to grow pumpkins, don't we have to plant other things, otherwise we will eat them all and no new ones will grow, and we will only wait to starve to death" "But Miss Ciel, even if it is planted, it will take a month or two to bear fruit, what will we eat in these two months?"
"I don't know Didis either," said Ciel, who sighed annoyance, and raised his hand to rub his aching temples, "but we can go outside every day to find food, and I think we'll find something to fill our stomachs."
"Alright then, Miss Ciel, I'll go loosen the soil."
Ciel's attitude was very resolute, and Didis did not dare to disobey and had to turn around and run towards the place where the yard had planted vegetables.
Ciel bent down and picked up the two baskets of vegetables and followed behind Diddis, intending to plant them.
A week later.
Carrying an empty basket with a frustrated face on her face, Didis pushed open the fence and went into the yard, where she was watching the newborn ducklings in the duck pen when she heard the sound and looked in the direction of Diddis.
She didn't look at Diddis, but looked directly at the basket in Diddis's hand, and when she found that the basket was empty, her hungry face was lost.
"Diddis, haven't you found any food?"
she asked.
In the first two days, Didis was able to pick some wild vegetables and come back every day, but these days Didis came back with an empty basket every day.
Didis walked up to Sil and cried, "Miss Sil, go outside and take a look, the forest that used to be full of trees is now like a desert, and only the trunks of the trees are left, and the leaves on the trees are all picked by the villagers and used as wild vegetables to make soup, Miss Sil, I have walked through the whole village and have not seen any food to eat, Miss Sil" “” With a look of despair on his face, Ciel turned to look at the duck pen and no longer at Diddic.
Now it seems that it is impossible to find food outside, only to hope that the plants and small animals in the yard will grow up quickly for them to eat, otherwise they will starve to death.
But these ducklings are not the size of a palm for a day after they are born, and the potatoes and sweet potatoes planted a few days ago have just sprouted, and when they grow up and can eat, it will be a month or two later.
God, how are they going to solve the problem of food and clothing in the next month or two?
