After Yu woke up, he didn't want to eat, and kept crying to find his two sons.

The Niu family felt sorry for the old lady, so he agreed to set off with the Hua family, and asked Liu Dahe to go to the Hua family to discuss the departure.

Liu Dahe is a humble person, and he patiently listens to Old Man Hua explain the precautions to him.

Old man Hua had a plan in his heart, and he said to Liu Dahe: "I heard that several nearby counties are in chaos, Dahe, you go back and quickly clean up, let's set off early tomorrow morning and go to the direction of Pengcheng together." ”

"Bring as few things as possible."

After Liu Dahe came back from Hua's house, Xiao Qi's family began to pack up their things at home.

Niu touched this and that, and was reluctant to throw anything away, so he packed a lot of things.

Liu Dahe persuaded: "We can't bring so many things, so don't be reluctant, and we'll come back when it's too peaceful outside in a few days." ”

Niu Shi glanced at the child on the bed, "What about the child?" ”

The child was watching the couple with wide eyes, not crying or making a fuss.

Liu Dahe: "Naturally, I brought it." ”

Niu glared at Liu Dahe, "You will really cause trouble, we don't know how long we can live, and now we have to bring other people's children, next time there is such a thing, I don't care." ”

Liu Dahe: "Chrysanthemum, I won't dare next time." ”

Ah Fu had already drawn several portraits of the new kid, and at this time he handed the portrait in his hand to Niu, "Mother, I like my brother very much, let's give my brother a name." ”

Niu didn't accept the portrait, "You and your father are the same, they are both rotten and good people." ”

Ah Fu looked happy, "My name is Ah Fu, why don't we call him Laifu, as soon as I hear the name, I know it's my brother." ”

The Niu family didn't have the energy to object, so he came to Fu, and he should have raised a pet for Ah Fu.

The carriage had been driven away by the cattle and sheep, but fortunately there was still a hand-pushed wheelbarrow left in the house, and a few people put all the things they had packed on the wheelbarrow.

After the things were almost packed, Niu began to make dry food for the road.

Xiao Qi lit the fire in the stove, and Niu baked all the flour in the house, and the cake was very dry and hard.

Ah Fu took a bite of the newly made cake, chewed it for a long time before chewing it, and said to Niu: "Mother, you have lost your level this time, this cake tastes like a stone." ”

Niu sighed, "This is also a helpless thing, your mother-in-law told me that this cake has to be made like this, we have to walk for many days on the road, and this kind of cake is not easy to break." ”

Ah Fu thought for a while and said, "Laifu is so small, how can he eat this cake." ”

Niu: "On the way, we will cook some porridge, and if there is no porridge, soak this cake in water until soft and then give it to Laifu to eat." ”

After packing up, the Hua family and Liu Dahe's family got up early in the morning and set off.

Niu's, Granny Hua and others were all sitting in the carriage, and the mule cart also put some dry food and small gourds filled with water, which were hidden in the dark compartment of the mule cart, and the secret compartment was made by Liu Dahe, and others could not easily see it.

The old man Hua was in charge of driving the mule cart, and Ah Fu sat on the wheel next to the old man Hua.

Mrs. Zhao didn't get into the mule cart, and she insisted on walking next to the mule cart.

Liu Dahe pushed the wheelbarrow behind, and in the wheelbarrow there were pots and some food utensils, as well as two gourds more than a foot long.

These two gourd kings were found by the old man Hua in the field, and they contained cold boiled water, and the water was still very precious and eye-catching at this time.

Xiao Qi felt very sorry for Liu Dahe, she had a lot of strength, so she followed Liu Dahe's side, and often helped Liu Dahe replace the cart, so that Liu Dahe could also relax for a while.

On the first day of departure, Xiao Qiyi and his entourage met many people from nearby villages on the road, and everyone greeted each other warmly, chatting while walking, as if they were going out to play.

The next day, Xiao Qi found that most of the people he met on the road were people he didn't know, and only two groups of people from Wangjia Village were familiar, and everyone was weak when they greeted each other.

After waking up on the morning of the third day, Niu boiled a large pot of porridge,?? The aroma of porridge wafted far away.

Many passers-by gathered around, all of them wide-eyed.

Xiao Qi felt that the eyes of these people had a little danger signal, and there was a great change from the people he met two days ago.

In the morning, Xiao Qi was responsible for serving porridge, and each bowl only contained less than half a bowl of porridge, a total of six bowls, all of which were handed to the carriage.

Their group only brought six bowls, which were not enough at all, and Liu Dahe and Xiaoqi had to wait for the people in the car to finish eating.

There were still two small bowls left in the iron pot, and the fire for cooking porridge was burned by Liu Dahe, and Liu Dahe was still sitting next to the iron pot at this time.

A moment later, a mighty man came to the iron pot, and the man held a dirty and thin child in his arms, and held a broken bowl in his hand and stretched out in front of Liu Dahe.

The man's voice sounded a little hoarse and weak, "The old man is good, the child is about to starve to death, give a little, just a little." ”

Liu Dahe was very conflicted in his heart, but his hand didn't think about it, he picked up the big scoop and added a few mouthfuls of porridge directly to the broken bowl.

This time it was lively, and everyone saw that Liu Dahe was very talkative, so they all came to the pot. A few children with dirty clothes swarmed up, and soon licked the little porridge left at the bottom of the pot.

Liu Dahe picked up the iron pot and was about to find some water to rinse it, but was stopped by the old man Hua.

Old Man Hua sighed, "I thought that the weather was cold, and I could eat something hot with the pot, but it seems that it is no longer feasible, and there is no need to keep the iron pot." Water isn't easy to find anyway, so you don't have to work hard. ”

Granny Hua also said: "They can politely ask you for it this time, and they can come up and grab it next time, it seems that we can only eat dry scum cakes in the future." ”

The old man looked at the wheelbarrow and said to Liu Dahe: "Dahe, move the dry food on the wheelbarrow and the big gourd with water to the carriage, and there is no need to leave other utensils, abandon the wheelbarrow." ”

Liu Dahe nodded in response, and several people packed up their things together and abandoned the wheelbarrow on the side of the road.

Xiao Qi was very reluctant to have two big gourds, and tied the two big gourds to his waist, one left and one right, which looked very funny.

Ah Fu probe said to Xiao Qi: "Sister, it looks very magnificent like this, I'll help you draw a portrait when you go back." ”

Xiao Qi blushed and said: "I like these two gourds very much, the gourds I grow myself are very small, I liked them very much when I saw these two big gourds at Aunt Xi's house a long time ago, but I was embarrassed to ask for them." ”

Hua Xi'er glared at Xiao Qi, "Why didn't you say it earlier, if you said it earlier, I would have asked my father to send one to you, so that you can hold it in your arms every day." ”

Old Man Hua touched Xiao Qi's head, "If you like it, hang it first, it's empty anyway, it's not heavy to hang, and you can't throw it away when you can't take it with you." ”

Xiao Qi was very happy, and when everyone stopped to rest, Xiao Qi held the gourd in his arms, as if he had a very rare baby.

Ah Fu painted a portrait of Xiao Qi holding a gourd, and the painting was passed to the old man Hua, who sighed that Ah Fu had a talent for painting.
