Chapter 43: The Smell of Meat

'There is a famine outside, how can this family still have meat to eat?' Suspicious, she deliberately approached the three to see what was boiling in their pot.

Unexpectedly, the three of them saw Jiao Niang approaching, and stared at Jiao Niang vigilantly, as if Jiao Niang was going to snatch the meat in their pot in the next second.

"What's wrong?" Xin Ping walked over and asked when he saw the three people looking at Jiao Niang with unkind faces.

"I just want to see what's so fragrant, without malice." Jiao Niang hurriedly waved her hand to explain to the three people.

Unexpectedly, the scrawny man among the three made a strange laugh: "Is it fragrant? Don't you have that too? ”

Xin Ping and Jiao Niang looked at the man's eyes and found that the man was staring directly at Xin An in Lin Ruyi's arms! Xin Ping was furious and kicked over the clay pot on the fire.

The clay pot turned over, Xin Ping and Jiao Niang vomited after just one look, the mother and daughter of the Lin family wanted to come over, Xin Ping waved his hand to prevent them from getting close. The three men lay on the ground, nervously picking up the scattered things and stuffing them into their mouths, like the demons of hell.

Ye Wenzhou first called the mother and daughter of the Lin family and Xin Wuxian Xin An into the carriage, and then walked over and stepped on the man's back, the man had no strength to resist at all, so he could only stick to the ground and "whoop" and scream.

"Say, 'Where did this kid come from?' Ye Wenzhou pointed to the wreckage on the ground and asked viciously.

"This is my own, I am his son! You can't take care of it! The man shouted excitedly, as if he didn't feel that he was doing a heinous thing.

"That's right! We don't want to, the daughter-in-law is gone, the granddaughter is gone, we just didn't touch him, we want to leave a root for our grandson's family, but he himself is sick and angry, and we have no money to show him...... We're going to live! The old woman with a bulging mouth also argued very confidently.

Before Ye Wenzhou could say anything, Jiao Niang had already rushed over and kicked the old woman to the ground, and in excitement, she turned around and kicked the man several times.

"A bunch of scum, no humanity, you still deserve to live? You all deserve to die! "The lady was mad, thinking of the poor woman and her two children, who could hear their desperate cries as she stood here at this moment.

She is a glorious pediatric nurse in modern times, and she faces cute children every day. She also helped her sister take care of the baby, every time she saw the cute babies, her heart was soft, and the children were little angels to her. So she simply can't accept that someone would do such a vicious deed!

"Damn, when you're hungry like this, I don't think you're tall. I tell you that children are the best, because they are very tender. Especially at the age of that little boy just now, that taste...... Ahhh......h

"Don't kill me, don't kill me, no matter what I do, I'm also forced." Seeing this, the old woman and the old man hurriedly kowtowed and begged for mercy, Ye Wenzhou wiped the long sword on the dead man's body, and said lightly: "Get out!" ”

The old woman and the old man ran out of the yard, and the old man grabbed a piece of meat from the ground before leaving.

Looking at the mess all over the ground, Jiao Niang clearly realized the darkness of this world for the first time, she was not so afraid of being kidnapped last time and on the verge of death.

In her time, even earthquakes and floods were in trouble, and all sides supported them. Not to mention one's own country, out of humanitarianism, other countries will also extend a hand of friendship.

But not here, ordinary people can only rely on themselves, and if they can't resist the thirst for life, they may break the code of ethics and become demons. Jiao Niang didn't dare to imagine that one day she would become this kind of thing that was neither human nor ghostly.

"Are you alright? Let's go, my brother will help you to the car. Although Xin Ping's face was pale, he cared more about his delicate sister. However, as if he hadn't heard, he pulled his sister's arm and found that she couldn't stop shivering.

"Jiao Niang? Girl! Xin Ping patted Jiao Niang's face anxiously, and Jiao Niang came back to her senses, but she still kept shaking.

"Oh, my mother, what a sin!" Widow Lin was not worried, and the brothers and sisters of the Xin family came over to take a look, patted their legs, and shouted loudly.

"Auntie, quickly help Jiao Niang to the car." Xin Ping and Widow Lin hugged Jiao Niang and helped her into the carriage. Ye Wenzhou followed, handed a gourd of wine for Jiao Niang to drink two sips, and as the spicy wine entered her throat, Jiao Niang finally eased up.

Xin An was already hungry and crying at this time, and there was no way for a few people to run outside the courtyard to light a fire and make porridge for Xin An to drink, and a few adults barely ate a few bites of the pastries brought out to satisfy their stomachs. Of course, Jiao Niang had no appetite at all, and leaned in the carriage sickly.

Originally, Ye Wenzhou planned to take them to find a dilapidated house in this courtyard to spend tonight, but Widow Lin and Jiao Niang were unwilling to stay here for long. Ye Wenzhou had no choice but to set up the car and continue to hurry.

It was pitch black all around, except for a faint glow of a white moon that illuminated the way. The carriage was jolting on the path, and the lady put her arms around the sleeping Xin An, listening to the movement outside.

I don't know how long it took, they finally found another uninhabited house, there was an empty bed in the house, Widow Lin took out a few quilts and spread them casually, and asked Jiao Niang and Lin Ruyi to take Xin An to sleep.

She herself and Shin Ping took turns sleeping in the carriage for vigil. Xin Wuxian was very playful, he had to follow the vigil, the night and the bonfire made him curious and interesting, he didn't sleep all night, and when he went on the road the next day, he fell asleep directly in the carriage.

Two days after the carriage stopped and stopped, it had already made a detour through the deserted mountainous area, and it turned out that for the sake of safety, Ye Wenzhou took a car of old and weak people to deliberately avoid crowded places.

The different scenery in the mountains made Jiao Niang feel a lot more happy, and when she got off the car to rest, she could also go around to find wild vegetables and fruits, which was also full of fun.

Jiao Niang even caught a few small crabs by the stream, with the oil and flour on the carriage, she actually made a noodle crab, and a few adults who had not eaten oil and water for a few days were still unsatisfied, and the aftertaste was repeated. Sometimes small fish and shrimp can be caught, and Jiao Niang uses them to boil porridge to keep Xin'an nutritionally balanced.

After walking for another two days, Ye Wenzhou began to have a smile on his face: "You should be able to reach Chuzhou after walking for another three days!" Everyone felt relaxed, and Jiao Niang could imagine the scene of taking a hot bath and eating a bowl of hot noodles at the inn.

There were not many supplies in the car, and everyone tried to save some for the youngest Xin An to eat, so everyone else was more or less thin, only Xin An and Xin Wuxian were still round and jade. Xin Wuxie's mental age is about the same as Xin An'an, and he only knows that he has to eat when he is hungry.

On this day, the carriage finally drove out of the mountains and approached Chuzhou. It's a pity that they were greeted by a large group of refugees who were in a panic, and Ye Wenzhou grabbed an uncle who was holding a salute and asked about the situation. The uncle said in a panic: "The north is coming!" ”
