Chapter 12: Something Happened

I was still thinking that after my life settled down, I would continue to take the children's exam.

Take the position of a showman, and then he will be a showman.

At that time, I continued to plan, maybe I could still be an official, if I became an official, I wouldn't be mixed with the homeless, and I wouldn't be like this...... I can't get enough to eat every day.

On the way to escape, Su Heng lost a lot of books, not to mention how sad he was.

Walking on the road with his head down, his spirit was still a little trance.

Su Qutian glanced back at Su Heng, who was shaking his head, and his eyes fell on Su Quhai: "Big brother, Su Heng is a scholar, why did you let him come out to find food with him." ”

"Winter is coming, so it's not wrong to prepare more food for the winter."

Su Quhai spoke in a deep voice, the food stored during this period of time has almost been used, and the stupid boy of the second family has not been able to change it into meat.

Eating is being consumed faster, and now it's getting colder and colder every day.

If you don't want to spend the winter, you won't be able to see the sun next year, let alone take the test.

As for what kind of two-legged mutton to eat, Su Quhai was also very resistant at first, but this time, the wafting meat fragrance around him was not a two-legged mutton.

Seeing that those bastards have eaten it all and have not been punished, plus the smell of meat wafting around.

No, Su Quhai was interested.

As long as you can live, let alone two-legged sheep, even the soil has to be eaten.

I also planned to change the stupid son of the second family one by one, losing money and goods, in that case, it would be enough to survive this winter.

However......

Last night, the eldest girl of the second family actually killed someone, and it is not easy to provoke anyone who has seen blood.

So, I had to think of something else.

"I heard that the second child dug up a sweet potato plant yesterday?" Su Quhai said.

"No, the second brother is still lucky."

"Well, come back in the evening and go to the firewood room to have a look, if there is something to eat, borrow some." Su Quhai seemed to be talking to himself, and he seemed to be talking to Su Qutian.

As for Su Qutian, there was a little more indescribable on his face, but he didn't speak, didn't refute or agree.

Borrow food from the second child?

Jokes.

If the second child really has food over there, he will go here to borrow food in the morning.

At this time, eating is life! The mother didn't lend it out, and the second brother was naturally disappointed.

Su Qutian didn't have anything to say about what happened in the morning, and they didn't eat much here, just some dried vegetables and dry food.

It's all hidden by my mother.

If you really lend it, you will have to tighten the waistband of your pants in the future.

If you don't lend it out, you can last a few more days.

These days, what can be eaten is getting harder and harder to find.

The book also said that if there was a famine, the imperial court would send silver and food for disaster relief, but all the way north, from southern Hebei to the edge of the capital, not to mention the silver money for disaster relief, and even the hot soup sent by the imperial court was not drunk.

Will it really make it up?

Su Qutian stretched out his hand and grabbed a handful on his cracked face.

The dry old face was shaved by the calluses on his hands, his eyes turned red, and the days were getting more and more sad.

Su Mo'er still walked towards the mountain with a few small ones.

There is a line of guards standing at the gate of the capital, and if the homeless people approach, they will be stabbed to death if they are not careful.

Only those rich and noble people or foreigners with identity documents can enter the city after paying the fee for entering the city.

These outcasts, as long as they get close, will be killed by a single shot.

is dead, and there is not even a place to cry out for grievances.

Getting into the city is almost impossible at the moment.

Su Mo'er went up the mountain much more smoothly this time than yesterday.

As soon as I came, I had something in my stomach and my body was strong.

Second, the path is already familiar.

It's also easy to walk.

After going up the mountain, when she saw konjac, Su Moer did not dig it, but continued to go deeper.

The temperature in the mountains is much cooler than outside.

You can dig some up and bring them back when you go back, and all you have to do now is find new food.

"Take a break and drink some water."

Su Mo'er was tired of walking, took out the water bag hanging on her waist, and drank two sips by herself.

After resting in place for nearly a quarter of an hour, he continued his walk deeper into the woods.

The mountain is a treasure of nature.

Su Mo'er saw a lot of wild Chinese herbs.

Honeysuckle, wolfberry, skullcap, schisandra, cassia seed......

The honeysuckle has passed the flowering period, and there are only pairs of golden yellow flowers hanging on the tree, but there are many wolfberries.

Goji berries are a good thing.

It's a pity that the picking speed is too slow.

Glancing at Su Tang, who had a sallow face, Su Moer pinched a few fruits from the wolfberry tree and put them in the water bag, wolfberry water is a good thing.

Glancing at Su Qi, Su Mo'er said: "You can pick the wolfberries here, if you have the opportunity to mix into the capital, you can also exchange the wolfberries for money." ”

"Goji ......"

Su Qi didn't know the red fruits that grew on the thorny dwarf tree in front of him.

Hearing Su Mo'er's words, doubts flashed in her eyes.

Su Mo'er picked a handful of wolfberries, and her eyes fell on Su Tang again.

Six-year-olds.

That's a little thinner.

Usually silly.

But the fingers are very flexible, whether it is a basket or a shoe, they are all very well braided.

I want to bring the goji berries back.

A small basket is still needed.

This can only be done by the little guy.

Glancing at Su Tang, his heart was a little heavier.

The child's body needs to be carefully conditioned by a doctor.

Otherwise......

The losses are too severe.

It's not just intellectual.

However......

One's eyes are bigger than one's stomach..

Su Tang weaves the basket very quickly, and it is not a big basket, and it doesn't take much effort to mention a little wolfberry.

Chen Qi was not idle, helping Su Qi pick wolfberries together.

As for Su Mo'er, she squatted under the tree and rubbed the rope, and with the rope, everything she did in the future would become simpler.

With a rope, she can dig a trap in the ground, and if luck strikes, she'll get a stupid rabbit or pheasant.

Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared, aren't they?

After frustrating the rope, Su Mo'er glanced back at the person who was still picking wolfberries, and just wanted to say something, a gust of wind blew, bringing the smell of blood.

Su Mo'er's movements paused.

Su Mo'er is a more cautious person, she doesn't dare to go up to check, and if a few half-year-old children don't run when they smell blood, they still go to check, it's not bold, they don't want to die.

turned around and walked to Su Tang's side, took Su Tang's hand, and whispered, "Don't pick it up, let's go back." ”

"Oh!"

When you go back, you can rest.

For this decision, Su Qi couldn't ask for it.

Chen Qi didn't ask any questions and followed behind Su Mo'er.

A few people walked down the mountain.

After going down the mountain, Su Mo'er's heart finally fell into her stomach.

"Sister, what did you find?"

"Nothing."

Su Mo'er shook her head, the smell of blood on the mountain could reach her nose along the wind.

It proves that either the place where the bloodshed took place is not far from them, or it is some distance, but it is a large bloodshed scene, otherwise a small amount of blood smell is not how a dog's nose can smell it so easily.
