Chapter 133: The sister of childhood friend in the novel (37)
Gu Huanzhi didn't say anything, and Su Xingchen ignored him. Instead, he suppressed his nausea and drank half of the tea seed soup in the bowl.
To be fair, the taste of this thing is really hard to describe, but because of the high oil content, it is very filling.
Of course, neither of them spoke to each other that night.
Su Xingchen used this method to force Gu Huanzhi to promise him not to go out and take risks. Therefore, he could not agree to Su Xingchen's request, he simply could not do it.
However, Gu Huanzhi could not imagine what it would be like if one day he saw Su Xingchen starving to death in front of him.
The next day, Gu Huanzhi heated up the tea seed soup cake that Su Xingchen had left over yesterday and ate it himself. Then he took out some more life-saving food from the cellar. He gritted his teeth and put half a piece of malt sugar that Su Xiangran had given him in Su Xingchen's bowl.
Su Xingchen likes sweets. When the soup noodle entered his mouth, he was slightly stunned, but he only ate half of it like he did yesterday.
After a few days of reducing food intake, Su Xingchen looked a little thinner.
But the two of them just remained deadlocked, neither of them willing to compromise.
On the morning of the sixth day of food shortage, Gu Huanzhi felt depressed when he saw that there was only one piece of tea seed cake left in the jar.
Although there was still some food here and there, it could not guarantee how long the two people could survive.
Although Su Xingchen didn't cook, he had a basic idea of the food in the cellar, so when Gu Huanzhi gave him today's soup noodles, he just took a light bite and put the bowl down.
Gu Huanzhi pursed his lips without saying anything. Taking advantage of the bright light at noon, he put on a thick cotton coat and wanted to go out.
Seeing his action, Su Xingchen didn't care about the cold war between the two, and followed him out of the house, holding him with all his strength, not letting him leave even a step.
Su Xingchen stubbornly believed that as long as Gu Huanzhi walked out of the forest farm, he would be doomed to death.
While the two were pulling each other, they didn't hear the footsteps coming from the distance until Su Guoan stood in front of them and talked to them, which broke the tug of war.
"Are you guys playing tug-of-war?" Su Guoan looked at the two people and asked in confusion, "Didn't you say that you've been out of food for several days? You guys are still quite strong!"
Su Xingchen looked at his father Su Guoan and was startled for a moment, then burst into ecstasy: "My dear father! You finally remembered us."
Su Guoan felt a little embarrassed by what Su Xingchen said: "The person who delivered the supplies was sick, and the person who handed over to him didn't know the situation, so the supplies were not delivered."
"Brother Su, Brother Gu." Wang Xiangbei was right behind Su Guoan, and he greeted the two men. "The road up the mountain is blocked by snow, and the supply truck can't get here. But it's not too far away, and the supplies can be delivered in a few trips."
Then, the people who went up the mountain with them delivered the supplies to the forest farm one after another.
Gu Huanzhi made a rough calculation and concluded that the food he brought would be enough for him and Su Xingchen to eat until the start of school in March.
Wang Xiangbei also took the easy-to-store life-saving food that Su Xiangran asked him to bring up and put it back into Su Xingchen's small cellar.
Su Xingchen ran over excitedly to take a look, only to find that tea seed cakes accounted for the majority of the food, and for a moment he lost interest in the life-saving food.
Su Guoan also asked Su Xingchen and Gu Huanzhi if they wanted to go down the mountain with him.
Su Xingchen wanted to go down, but he thought that even if he passed this hurdle, who knew if Gu Huanzhi would be in danger again, so he did not follow him down the mountain.
On the third day after the food supply team set out, all the members finally returned to the farm in one piece and in one piece.
Everyone is happy.
After this incident, the supply personnel of the forest farm and relevant personnel of the farm were punished. However, Wang Xiangbei had a good life. Not only did he make a contribution, he was also given a position - inspector.
Specifically responsible for managing inspections and third-party supervision in this area.
But to do this job, one must be able to read and write, otherwise anyone can fool him.
Wang Xiangbei was not completely ignorant of any words, at least he could write his own name. But that was not enough, so he used his spare time to study cultural courses with Su Xiangran. Soon, this capable and talented young man was able to take charge of the farm.
This made many villagers who had originally been pessimistic about him start to look at him with admiration.
Because of his contribution to the rescue, Su's father Su Guoan gradually developed a good impression of him and no longer opposed his daughter Su Xiangran's relationship with him.
When Su Xiangran was sixteen years old, she got engaged to Wang Xiangbei, who was nineteen years old.
Two years later, when Su Xiangran officially turned 18, the two of them took the letter of introduction issued by the farm to the town government to get a marriage certificate and became an official couple.
