The female dependents were not idle, the Queen Mother gathered everyone together, there were many female dependents here, some were trampled by horses' hooves in a panic during the assassination, some fell when they ran away, and some were injured by mistake, in short, the situation was very tragic.

The Queen Mother looked at these injured people, and her heart was very uncomfortable, "It's the mourning family who can't stand you." ”

"Queen Mother, don't say that, it has nothing to do with you, didn't you stay with us too? We are content! A woman smiled calmly.

"Hongrui, go and turn out all the boxes, gather all the food together, eat the easy spoilage first, now we must cherish every grain of food, and we can't waste it. Taking advantage of the current chaos, go get some game and come back, there should be a lot of salt, all gather and marinate the meat, you can store it for a few more days, and wait for them to come back to save us. Mingzhu thought about it and automatically helped the Queen Mother think a little more and arrange a little more.

"Yes."

"Find out all the weapons and distribute them to the ones who can move, and you will come with me to find more water and come back, bring all the containers with you, and come back with as much water as you can, I'm afraid that if you miss tonight, maybe we won't be able to get water." Mingzhu did her best to think things through.

"Some herbs are needed." Doctor Matthew hurriedly opened his mouth to add.

"Yes, write it down, and we'll go out and look for it later. And dry firewood. ”

Everyone began to replenish what they needed, and gradually the original desperate mood came back to life.

Most of the men were civil servants and did not know how to fight at all. The old man was highly respected and experienced, and commanded everyone to get busy, arranging defenses and traps. Fight for your own living space.

Mingzhu picked up a dagger and a short scimitar, and tied a crossbow quiver, which Zhou Li and Brother Yu left for her before leaving, for her to use for self-defense.

I carried a basket on my back, which contained a jug and a kettle for holding water, and I also brought two more women's gowns for wrapping things.

"Let's go."

"Wait, we'll go too. Your arms are hurt, I'll carry it, you can tell me what to do. Zhang stood up. Take the initiative to take the back basket.

"Hey, hey! Thank you, auntie. Mingzhu grinned.

Zhang scratched her nose, "The two of us are really blessed, I have a hard time coming out once, and the game is really thrilling!" ”

"Hahaha! Auntie, what kind of life are you! Mingzhu couldn't help but laugh.

She smiled. The big guy laughed too. It's a bit of a bitter feeling.

"Let's not be idle, let's put this place together, it's okay to help them hand them something and boil water, don't let the children see jokes, children are so sensible, we have all lived this age, and everyone who can move gets up and moves." An older woman struggled to her feet.

Everyone got up silently when they heard this, and found something to do within their means. There are also dead maids, and it is not realistic to rely on maids to serve them alone. Find some work to do yourself, and feel better when you are busy.

"Mother, brother, are they still back? I'm scared! Li Qingyun suddenly covered his face and cried.

"Hey!" Many women sighed, looking at these delicate children like flowers, their hearts were not painful, but they couldn't take them with them, and they couldn't run away.

"I will definitely come back, the Queen Mother, my grandfather, me, my aunt, we are all here, how could my father leave a large family and escape alone, how can he face my grandmother and my mother when he goes back, and face my third brother and my sister? He just leaves no one behind, and he won't leave his father and daughter, not to mention that the Queen Mother is still there, don't cry, let them see that it's time to laugh at us, our girls are not half a point worse than their boys, we are also heroes! Mingzhu said unconvinced, stalking his neck.

Li Qingyun wiped his tears fiercely, stood up, and hugged a kettle by himself, "Sister Mingzhu, I'll go with you to fill the water and come back after picking up some dry firewood, I'm sorry for making you laugh, I'm ...... I'm not as good as you! She bowed her head in shame, a little embarrassed.

"Silly girl, you've done a good job, it's dark, don't leave me too far after me, you can't find anyone if you go the wrong way." Mingzhu admonished.

"yes, I see." Li Qingyun ran to take off her skirt and put on a riding costume, which was more neat.

Mingzhu nodded appreciatively, and she also changed into riding clothes early, in order to be convenient when she escaped.

"You go to Shengshui, Sun Jin, you follow them." The old man commanded at the door, and when he saw that their female dependents were carrying something, he knew what they were going to do, and asked Sun Jin to protect them.

Fortunately, when the emperor and the others left, he deliberately made a noise around the forest to attract the thieves away, and they had not seen other thieves at this time, so they could take advantage of the whole time to prepare more things for themselves.

Mingzhu and they came to the river, Sun Jin was in charge of guarding, and several female dependents brought out all the things that could hold water at home, and they wanted to put them back at one time, and they didn't know if they could come out to fill water next time.

Hongrui went to hunt a few wild animals and brought them back to eat, and there are many people who can last for a few days without eating or drinking.

After a while, everyone got better, Mingzhu's injuries were on his shoulders and arms, and he couldn't carry things, so he could only walk back with a kettle.

Sun Qian knew herbal medicine, and picked a lot of needed medicinal materials to go back and change the medicine for the injured.

The old man had been waiting at the door, waiting for them with his neck stretched, and when he saw them coming back, he breathed a sigh of relief, "It's considered to be back, and if you don't come back, it'll be dawn." ”

"Thinking of decorating with more water, after a delay, we also got two wild boars, and Master Sun and Hongrui carried them back together."

"Okay, don't go out for the next two days, just stay in the cave quietly." The old man took the kettle and said.

"Traps set?" Mingzhu asked.

"Well, almost, the materials are limited, some traps have been set, and I will find some wooden arrows in a while." The old man also used all his abilities.

"Well, I'll do it with you."

"Are you okay, do you want to burn?" The old man touched his granddaughter's head.

"It's not burning, it's fine." Mingzhu smiled.

The water was carefully gathered together, and the women sliced the meat and smoked it over the fire, so that the meat would not rot too quickly.

Zhang's family made some wild vegetable porridge for the wounded and sick, and there was only a little bit of rice left, they were reluctant to eat it, and they all left it to the wounded and sick, even the queen mother's share was given out, and Mingzhu didn't have to eat, her injury was not serious.

A few girls are busy spreading out the wild vegetables to dry, even if it is an old vegetable stalk is good now, the wounded can't eat meat every day, the wound will start, although the wild vegetables are old, they are better than meat, and they can still be eaten if they are chopped a little.

"We, the wounded, are dragging everyone down, if it's really that time, leave us and you go, and take these children out." A badly wounded woman said.

"What nonsense you say, no one will be left behind." A civil servant angrily reprimanded.

This is her husband, who came to escape the summer and relax by the way, but he didn't expect to encounter such a thing.

"Don't worry, if that's the case, we can't run, we can die together, not lonely!" The Queen Mother chuckled. (To be continued.) )
