By noon, the mighty escape team in Liujin Village also stopped, ready to avoid the hot sun and eat something to replenish their strength.

The villagers looked around for a shady place, sat on the ground as a unit, and ate the dry food they had brought.

Because there are many elderly people and children in the village, taking care of them, the team's journey is not fast. Walking and resting, this half day is not too tiring.

Mei Qingyu took out an oiled paper bag from his arms, which contained a number of wild vegetable cakes he had made earlier, which were dry.

The food is not much, Mei Qingyu cherishes the food very much, took two wild vegetable cakes out and broke them, and the four brothers and sisters ate them separately.

Under the shade of a tree not far away, Song Yuelan, a villager who took a stone stove to make a fire and boiled water, saw four children eating wild vegetable cakes there, she really couldn't look at it, and sent some pickles and hot water.

"You can eat the radish pickles made at home, and you will eat them with wild vegetable cakes." Song Yuelan was a little embarrassed, "My aunt is also dragging her family here, and she can't help you much." ”

To be able to lend a helping hand at such a time, the children of the Mei family are already very grateful.

What's the matter, it's much better than the Qiao painting screen who left them and ran away.

"What about the four of you, the little stepmother? Ran away? ”

A foul voice rang out.

It's the little overlord in the village, Cao Hongchang.

He was born tall and big, and because his uncle was a servant in the county, he has always been the king of children in the village, leading a group of little hairy children, and he is rampant and domineering in the village every day.

But this little overlord lost in comparison with Mei Qingyao before, and was yin by Mei Qingyu again, and suffered a big loss, after that, he only dared to move his mouth and make fun of the four brothers and sisters of the Mei family.

"What's your business!" Mei Qingyao glared at Cao Hongchang and said in a rough voice, "Do you still want to eat fists?" ”

Cao Hongchang smiled: "I see how far you four wild children that no one wants, can go!" ”

"It doesn't matter how far you go, you don't have to worry about salty radishes."

A lazy voice sounded, and the children of the Mei family couldn't believe their ears, and when they looked back, they saw Qiao Huaping carrying a hare in his hand and a longbow on his shoulder, striding towards them.

When Cao Hongchang saw Qiao Huaping coming, he pursed his lips and ran away.

She's back?

Mei Qingyu's lips moved slightly, but she didn't say anything.

It was Mei Qingyao who couldn't help but shout: "Why did you come back?" ”

The villagers who were eating in the shade of the trees couldn't help but look over here.

They all thought that Qiao Huaping took the opportunity to drop the four oil bottles and run away, but they never thought that this Qiao Huaping would come back again?

Qiao Huaping snorted: "Yaoyao, what are you talking about, didn't I say it before?" But why don't you come back when you go back and get some things? Who do you think of me? ”

She asked three questions in a row, and Mei Qingyao couldn't answer the questions.

Who did you think she was?

If it was before, Mei Qingyao would immediately be able to say a bunch of adjectives, what is insidious, what is shameless, what is a vicious woman.

But now, he can't say it inexplicably.

Fortunately, Qiao Huaping didn't really want to hear any answers from Mei Qingyao's mouth.

She picked up the rabbit in her hand indifferently, and said happily: "Look at this, it's fat enough, right?" I was lucky enough to shoot on the way back. We can have extra dinner tonight. Oily roast rabbit, do you want to eat it? ”

This rabbit was actually hunted by her yesterday, but her space probably has the effect of preserving, yesterday's bloody rabbit went in, and today it was taken out, it was still bloody, and the blood had not yet coagulated, and it looked no different from the newly hunted.

The children of the Mei family did not speak.

Only the third Mei Qinghuang swallowed her saliva and looked at the rabbit in Qiao Huaping's hand with burning eyes. This rabbit is very fat, and I want to know how fragrant it will be when it is roasted.

It's just a dream rabbit.

Even with it, Mei Qinghuang felt that this vicious little stepmother was also a little pleasing to the eye.

Qiao Huaping hung the rabbit with hemp rope to the side of the cart, and saw that several children were still holding wild vegetable cakes in their hands, obviously this was their lunch.

Qiao drew his hands and took out a few boiled snake eggs from the blanket on his shoulder.

"Take it."

Qiao Huaping stuffed Mei Qingyao's hand without saying anything: "Go and give your younger brothers and sisters a point." ”

It's good to supplement high-quality protein.

Mei Qingyao hesitated, but still divided the snake eggs as she said.

Mei Qingying got two, she hesitated, peeled one, walked towards Qiao Huaping in small steps, stretched out her arm, and handed it to Qiao Huaping.

Qiao Huaping's heart was beautiful, and he directly touched Mei Qingying's hand, opened his mouth and took a bite of the little snake egg.

When he wanted to say something, he saw Mei Qingying running away again.

Qiao Huaping was a little regretful, but she also knew that everything had to be done gradually.

After the noon sun was at its hottest, the long queue of escapees slowly moved again.

This is the first day of escaping, everyone's mental state and physical strength are not bad, plus the weather is gradually getting cooler in the afternoon, this team of people who are dragging their families to escape the famine, walking and resting, a total of nearly 30 miles of mountain roads.

After all, the mountain road is not easy to walk, which is already very good.

Approaching dusk, the village chief took a few young adults in the village to find a few sheltered caves nearby, and drew lots to draw ten families, each family produced a young man, formed two teams, divided into the first half of the night and the second half of the night to patrol the night, so as not to have wild beasts or the risk of approaching.

The cave that Qiao Huaping and the others were assigned was not very big, and it was probably divided into more than a dozen families.

Qiao Huaping took off the linoleum cloth from the trolley and spread it on the ground to separate the moisture on the ground.

She just wanted to remind the children to put on the bed and rest for a while, but she saw a few children lying directly on the linoleum cloth, curled up and falling asleep.

Qiao looked at it for a while.

This cave has not seen light all year round, and it is a little cold in the end.

She took out a thin mattress from the bedding and covered the children, and gently untied the rabbit from the trolley and carried it out.

After she left, Mei Qingyu opened her eyes, her expression was a little complicated, and she stared at the top of the dark cave for a while.

Qiao Huaping carried the rabbit to the stream, and she put her hand into the blanket to cover her action of taking out the knife from the space.

This knife was also picked up by her from someone else's house before, and it is quite easy to use.

Qiao Huaping quickly bled and skinned the rabbit with the help of the stream.

Qiao Huaping is not the only one who cooks by the stream, many people have piled stones and built stoves by the stream, and they watched Qiao Huaping's swift action of disemboweling the rabbit, and gasped.

Qiao set up a fire and directly started roasting rabbits.

This rabbit is born very freely because no one dares to enter the evil gate in the mountains and forests, this fat and strong, whoever sees it has to give a thumbs up and praise that it looks really for the sake of human beings.

Qiao Huaping's roasting, there is no need to brush the oil extra, and the grease, Zi'er Wow,

When the evening breeze blows, it is simply fragrant!
