Chapter 94: The cries and curses in the wind

Chapter 94 The cry and curse in the wind

The villagers were ashamed and whispered, "It's hard for us to do anything to a few little babies."

Fourth Uncle Wang snorted coldly, "Where are those little babies? Someone is testing us! This time you were soft-hearted and gave us food. After a while, more people came to do misfortune and asked for food. I won't be able to get rid of you even if I want to. !”

The village chief walked out carrying a pipe and pot, and nodded.

"Old Wang is right. Besides, at this time of year, it is not a spring drought, let alone a heavy snowfall. Even if there is no food, as long as you are diligent, there are always wild vegetables in the mountains next to you. If you pick some, you will not starve to death! This is their temptation. As for us, once we open our mouth, there will be no end to it.”

Li Laosan sighed and said when he thought of escaping from the north to Kyoto.

"The fourth uncle and the village chief are right. On the way to Junyang, our family once felt soft-hearted and gave some food to the children. As a result, they were robbed of food the next day. If it weren't for good luck, The fourth child can always catch some pheasants and rabbits, but he may starve to death on the road. "

Perhaps he felt that everyone didn't believe it, so he simply led them in the direction where the children were running, and quietly walked over.

Sure enough, there were several men beating and scolding the children under the woods less than fifty or sixty feet away.

"Useless things, you can't even get back even if you beg for food! If they don't give it to you, you won't cry. If you cry to death, if they cry, they will be soft-hearted, so they will definitely give it to you."

“That is, if you can’t ask for food, you should always see clearly what they eat, right? What is being cooked in the pot? Do you bring a lot of food?”

The children would cry when they were beaten, which made the men even more angry.

They wanted to talk again, but when they looked up, they saw Li Laosan and others shrinking their necks in horror.

Li Laosan and others looked cold and slowly raised the hatchets in their hands.

Those people turned around and ran away, followed by a crying child. How could they make a mess of words?

Li Laosan and others did not pursue them, but they all felt heavy when they returned.

These troubled times are so terrible. At this time, the news has not spread completely. There are still wild vegetables and leaves on the mountains to satisfy hunger.

But there have been so many calculations and so many covets.

In another month, there will be no food to be found on the mountain, and the barbarians will come after them. By then...

Everyone felt as if a big stone was weighing on their hearts. No one dared to think about it, and no one could think of it.

Let’s go, we must hurry up and don’t delay for a moment!

At this moment, this was a consensus reached by everyone without any discussion.

As the night grew darker, everyone shared more than half a bowl of vegetable porridge. A few pieces of chicken or duck were added to the porridge, and a little broth was added.

The young boys really got three extra pieces of chicken, and they all ate it with great joy.

Little babies like Jiayin also get rice soaked in broth.

The Li family gathered together, each picked off their own chicken and gathered it into a bowl.

Mrs. Li shredded the chicken bit by bit, mixed it into the vegetable porridge, and gave it to her granddaughter in bite-sized portions.

While the rest of the people drank the porridge and smacked the bones, they also felt it was sweet.

Jiayin felt sad and wanted to refuse, but she knew she couldn't.

At this time, she should eat more and sleep more to make her family feel more at ease.

Sure enough, she managed to eat most of the bowl of meat porridge, and her belly was bulging.

The whole family was very happy to see him.

“Fu Niu’s food is so delicious and fragrant. I will eat like this in the future.”

“It’s better to eat more and sleep more, and become as fat as a pig.”

“We Fu Niu are blessed, we eat with ease and are not picky about food.”

Jiayin held grandma's shoulders and walked around her side, doing some exercise after dinner.

Occasionally, she ran to hug her second uncle, kiss her parents, sit in her third aunt’s arms and sway her legs twice, looking like a happy nut.

Strive to give your family more comfort and joy at such a time.

Uncle Zhao and several old men were gathered around with Divine Doctor Zhang, and they were also eating and talking.

Although we are in the wild, the night is dark, like a giant man-eating beast, which makes people feel heavy.

However, it has been four or five days since we escaped from the famine, and we have traveled more than a hundred miles. It is relatively smooth, and it gives everyone a little confidence.

As long as we are not afraid of hardship, if we stay together as a group and keep walking, we will reach the Jinsha River after a month. After eating, everyone simply tidied up, those who should watch the night watch, and those who should sleep went to bed.

After walking for a day, the blisters on my feet were burning and painful, but no one cared about it.

After it is broken, it will be more painful to walk tomorrow.

You can only wait for the blisters on the soles of your feet to be broken down during the day-to-day trek, and the flesh and blood will quickly turn into cocoons as you move forward, and you will never get blisters again.

San Aunt Wu gathered next to the campfire, listening to the loud snoring, and carefully mended her worn cloth shoes.

Old Mrs. Li walked around and said something like this.

“Tomorrow at noon I’ll look for suitable grass and knit a few pairs of big straw sandals, which can be worn over cloth shoes. I’ll save whatever I can.”

Aunt Wu also nodded, "I think so too. We have to go for more than twenty days. If we continue like this, we won't even have enough cloth shoes to change."

After chatting for a while, Mrs. Li went back to the temporary shack she had built.

Sure enough, the granddaughter was still awake and was sitting eagerly waiting for her.

Beside him, Jia'an Jiaxi was already asleep and snoring, with her granddaughter's quilt covering her belly.

Who could not love such a sensible granddaughter?

Orange Mrs. Li hugged her granddaughter, kissed her on the forehead, took off her coat and wrapped her around her, and then they fell asleep.

The next day we started on our way at dawn as usual. Everyone was already familiar with their tasks and their cooperation was getting better and better.

The women and the old men were really looking for cattails and weaving straw sandals as they walked.

The other fleeing people who followed him not far or near saw this and also followed suit.

For a while, the cattails on the roadside were robbed earlier than the wild vegetables.

Just like that, we stayed overnight at dawn, everyone hardened their hearts and ignored anyone's misfortune or chatting.

As long as he raised his hatchet whenever anyone approached, he walked away without incident for two days.

Finally, at noon on an autumn day when tigers were raging, everyone approached the gate of Jin'an, the first county town going south.

When they were seven or eight miles away, everyone saw that the gate of the city was crowded with people, and it was blocked by water.

There are still many people stranded in the open space on both sides of the city gate.

The autumn wind carried faint cries and angry shouts, which made people feel heartbroken.

No one knew what was going on, so the village chief discussed it with the Li family and led everyone to find a place to camp.

Having been walking for so many days, it’s time to rest for an afternoon and explore the situation ahead.

The village chief stayed behind, and Li Laosi took Jiaren Jiayi and several villagers to the city gate to have a look.

No matter how worried the rest of the people are, they have to cut cattails, dig wild vegetables, pick wild fruits, and even wash clothes and cook, all without touching the ground.

Jiayin was carried on Tao Hongying's back, making her dizzy. When she saw her father was about to leave, she opened her little hands and shouted.

“Dad, dad!”

Li Laosi turned around, guessing that his daughter wanted to follow, so he quickly coaxed her.

“Daughter, it doesn’t seem to be very good over there. Dad will go over and have a look. He will be back soon.”

Jiayin refused, and still clamored to follow.

Old Mrs. Li was lighting the fire and was reluctant to let her granddaughter go as she wished, so she called out.

“With Fu Niu, even if something happens, so many people still won’t protect her!”

Li Laosi had no choice but to agree.

Soon, the good news was carried on Dad’s back and set off towards the city gate.

The closer the crowd got, the more clearly they could hear the cries and curses.
