When Liu Pan'er heard this, she couldn't smile bitterly, she didn't scold, but her tone was gentle, and she patiently explained, "If I want to eat alone, why do I have to take it back when I find a place to bake and eat it alone just now?"

The reason why we don't let you eat is not because we are reluctant, but because we have been hungry for a long time before, we eat too much, and it is easy to accumulate food. In case I get sick, on the way to escape the famine, I can't go to the village or the store, even if I know a few herbs, I may not find all the medicines in the wild, what do you say? ”

Li Dabao and Li Rong, who were still angry, felt quite reasonable after hearing their stepmother's words.

Once when his father came back, Li Dabao rarely ate meat, ate too much, had diarrhea and fever, and was sick for several days.

The two of them honestly packed the roasted quail eggs in a package and carefully carried them on their backs.

After eating and drinking, Liu Paner had the strength to continue to carry all the packages and quail eggs, seventy or eighty pounds of things on her back.

"Let's go out, and find the people in the village as soon as possible while it's still dark." Liu Paner knows that on the way to escape the famine, she can't fight alone, especially when there are so many children around her, and she has to find someone she knows and rush together.

Li Dabao still had lingering palpitations about the vicious stepmother, and did not relax his vigilance because he ate the stepmother's things, "You are right, just listen to you." ”

Li Rong carried her sister on her back, walked a few steps quickly to catch up with Liu Paner, looked nervous, stared at Liu Paner and asked, "You, why are you so good to me?" You used to hate us, you thought we were an eyesore, and you didn't want to throw us away. ”

When Liu Paner heard this, she was quite speechless about what the original body had done.

As a stepmother, the original body is too bad, these four children were not born to her, but were brought back by the original husband who was out of the war.

She didn't feel distressed at all, so she called the child to work.

If there are good things, eat them yourself first, and in the end, the scum will be left before it is the turn of these stepsons and stepdaughters.

The man is not at home, and he is separated from his in-laws, and no one can control her.

Liu Pan'er pondered carefully, and then said slowly: "When Wang Dazhu and Wang Erzhu were about to snatch Anan and Xiaobao just now, you protected them, I heard and saw it, you are good children who value love and righteousness."

I was wrong before, and I admit my mistake to you. The family broke bones and tendons, and on the way to escape from the famine, if our family is not united, we will die on the road before we can escape to the south. ”

Li Rong was skeptical and asked, "Do you really think so?" It can't lie to us, right? ”

Liu Pan'er felt bitter in her heart, to be honest, no one believed it, and then she had an idea and sighed, "Your father loves you so much, if you know that I threw you away, and when he comes back, you won't beat me to death?" So, you should believe me, right? ”

When Li Dabao and Li Rong heard this, they looked at each other and suddenly realized. Daddy really loves them, because Anan was too thin before, and he taught the vicious stepmother.

"Yes, you have to remember, Daddy is tall and strong, and he loves us, you treat us badly, when we see Daddy, we will sue and let Daddy beat you." Li Dabao pretended to be vicious and said fiercely, bluffing to scare his stepmother.

Li Rong patted the eldest brother on the back, thinking that the eldest brother was so stupid, "Say a few words, even if you sue, you have to wait for your father to come and then sue, now say, isn't it a reminder to her?" ”

Li Xiaobao and Li Nan, the pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses, were full of food and drink, sleepy, very tired, and had already tilted their heads and fell asleep, not knowing the arguments and entanglements of their brothers and sisters.

Liu Pan'er nodded and kept urging, "Since we have talked about it, let's go quickly, don't delay time." ”

Liu Pan'er walked in front, ignoring Li Dabao and Li Rong behind her, and she must take advantage of the darkness to meet the people in the village.

Out of the jungle and onto the main road.

"Village Chief!" Li Dabao shouted loudly with sharp eyes, his eyes showing surprise.

If they hadn't been separated from the villagers, their ox carts and grain would not have been taken away.

Li Village is about forty years old, and when he saw Liu Paner and others, he was also happy and relieved. In one village, hundreds of people came out to flee the famine.

Along the way, they were scattered, less and less, and Village Chief Li didn't feel good in his heart.

In particular, his distant nephew Li Yuanqing went to the northwest and asked him to take care of the children at home. But when it comes to escaping from the famine, Village Chief Li has more than enough heart but not enough strength, and there is also a backward girl Liu Paner.

This Liu Pan'er was short-tempered, he couldn't listen to his persuasion, he didn't care about coming and going, but he didn't expect them to be separated.

"Dabao, where's your ox cart?" Village Chief Li hurriedly asked, seeing that they were carrying their younger brothers and sisters, Liu Paner was carrying luggage, and they were injured behind them, and he was worried.

When Li Dabao heard this, he glared at his stepmother angrily, "It's all her fault, she was scattered, she had to go alone, the ox cart was robbed, and the grain was also robbed." ”

"The child is small, Dabao, Ah Rong, put your younger brothers and sisters on the ox cart, let's hurry up." When Village Chief Li heard this, he felt uncomfortable, the food was getting scarce and scarce, and he took them on the road, so he could only save rations from his own mouth and give them rations.

Now there are only five ox carts in the village, loaded with grain, for the elderly and children to sit on, and all the young and middle-aged people walk.

Zhou Cuihua, the daughter-in-law of the village chief, was suddenly unhappy, and muttered: "That Liu Pan'er is capable, has a lot of food and money, and people dislike us, for fear that we will take advantage of her and go on the road by ourselves." was robbed, and came to follow us all the way, but where did we get the food? ”

When Li Dabao and Li Rong heard this, their faces were embarrassed, and they began to resent the vicious stepmother again. But they had no food, and the four children did not dare to travel alone.

Village Chief Li was embarrassed, but gritted his teeth and insisted, "Cuihua, I can't ignore Yuanqing's children. When I fell into the trap, if Yuan Qing hadn't found out and rescued me from the trap and carried me down the mountain, I would have frozen to death. ”

Hearing her husband say this, Zhou Cuihua opened her mouth, her eyes were red, and she choked.

She is not naturally mean, just because the world is difficult, she also has sons and grandchildren, and she also wants her children to eat more.

But the grace of saving lives is greater than the sky, without Li Yuanqing saving her man, there would be no family like her.

Liu Paner knew that following the people in the village, at least there was safety to rely on, and when she went to find food, someone helped watch the children.

Seeing the embarrassment of her stepson and stepdaughter, Liu Paner immediately made a decision and took out the roasted quail eggs, "Uncle and aunt, the village chief used to be my Liu Paner's shallow eyelids, and I always felt that I was powerful, but I didn't know that in front of the real villain, my little martial arts couldn't protect the child at all." I just ask you to take me and my children in, and to travel with you and take care of them. As for food, I don't need your help, I will hunt, and I will look for food. ”

Liu Paner distributed quail eggs to everyone, two per person, hoping to change the pungent and unreasonable bad image left by the original body in Lijia Village through what she ate.

Originally, Liu Paner's family, who complained that the village chief had taken in no food, was very dissatisfied, but when they saw Liu Pan'er take out the cooked quail eggs, they suddenly stopped talking.

Although there is food, they don't dare to eat more, they all eat wild vegetable dumplings mixed with coarse grains, and they have not tasted meat for a long time.

Li Rong looked at her stepmother stupidly and generously, a large bag of bird eggs was distributed in half, they had no food, what should they do in the future?
