Chapter 105: The True Identity of the Dead Body
Song He'er didn't want to stay in this kind of place for longer, she just wanted to go farther quickly, so she quickened her pace.
"Wait a minute, didn't we say last night that we were going to get those dog-headed officers and soldiers to exchange for some seeds or food to eat? Although I can't change much, I still have to save the emergency temporarily? ”
Song Xiaoyu stopped his steps and groped for a few copper coins from his arms.
"Along the way, all the money on my body was looted by those officers and soldiers, and now I only have these left, and I don't think I can buy anything."
Zhang Xiu'e sighed, "We used to earn some money by selling things on the road, but we bought all the quilts yesterday, so now I am also empty-handed, and I really can't come up with any money......"
Some of the copper coins exchanged in Xizhou before were scattered in the hands of a few people, and now they are the same when they are taken out and spent, I am afraid that these officers and soldiers will not accept them.
Chundi took out the money from her body and handed it to Zhang Xiu'e, "Fleeing all the way in the snow mountain, that's all left, don't you still have it on everyone?" Take it out and make it up. ”
As soon as the words fell, the others also got together from the scattered copper coins on their bodies and gave them all to Zhang Xiu'e.
"This ...... Give it all to me? I'm going alone? ”
Zhang Xiu'e stared at a pair of round eyes and looked around.
Song He'er thought for a while, then stood up and replied: "Third aunt, you have a bad temper, it's better for me to go with you, with me by my side to urge you, I won't quarrel with those officers and soldiers." ”
When Zhang Xiu'e heard this, she laughed, "How can I be so irritable, forget it, you are young, let's follow your little mother, I will go by myself, let your third uncle stay and help take care of the children." ”
Song Xiaoyu is a man who loves his wife very much, and seeing Zhang Xiu'e dealing with the officers and soldiers by herself, she was naturally unwilling, so she said: "He'er stays, and I will accompany your third aunt." ”
"No, what are you doing with such people! Sister Nian has to be taken care of, right? ”
"Just let Chunhuan watch it, I don't worry about you going alone, and besides, this road is not clean......"
Speaking of being unclean, Song He'er is indeed a little scared, how can there be dead people all the way? It's almost like a mass grave.
"Third aunt, you just let the third uncle go with you, Sister Nian is not very young, it is enough to have us watch, the third uncle is a man, so he is naturally bolder, if you see something unclean on the way, you will be safer with him."
After listening to Song He'er's persuasion, Zhang Xiu'e sighed and nodded in response.
"Then the two of us go, you continue to walk forward for a while, and go to a clean place and wait for us."
"Okay, got it."
As soon as the words fell, Zhang Xiu'e and Song Xiaoyu left together.
Song He'er looked at Sister Nian'er who was well-behaved, patted her forehead, and asked, "Is Sister Nian hungry?" ”
"Hmm...... Fifth sister, I didn't eat enough last night......"
Song He'er thought carefully for a long time, if you let everyone stay hungry like this, it is not a way, you still have to take something out of the space, otherwise even if the adults can survive, the children will have to starve their appetites.
Thinking of this, Song He'er stepped forward and said to Qin Xiaoniang: "A-Niang, I see that if you go further, there will be another forest, look, it is not the kind of tree that can produce fruit, but it is very clean there, why don't we go there and rest for a while, and then wait for the third aunt?" ”
Qin Xiaoniang followed Song He'er's line of sight, and saw that the forest in front of her was indeed a good place, the smell here was too bad, if she walked to the trees, she could also let the smell of those grass roots and bark dispel the nausea in her stomach.
"Alright then, let's all go there and rest for a while."
Chun Rao and Chun Di don't talk much on weekdays, and they don't have much opinions, so they heard that Qin Xiaoniang was in charge of going to the front to rest, so they had to go with them.
"Fourth aunt, you are not in good health, just stay and watch the child, when you get there in a while, my fifth aunt and I will go out to find something to eat, in case there are wild vegetables or something, you can also satisfy your hunger."
Chun Rao frowned, "He'er, how can there be wild vegetables in this wild place?" Also, I don't think it's safe here, so let's not go far. ”
Chundi looked at her sister so timid, so she complained angrily: "Sister, why do you always think about things that haven't happened yet?" We don't have anything to fill our stomachs now, and if we continue to wait like this, we will starve to death, and if we go out to find something, there is still a chance to live, are you willing to sit and wait for death, or are you willing to go out and find food? ”
Chun Rao sighed and replied helplessly: "All the food we prepared with great difficulty was lost on the snow mountain, and the hemp rope was really broken in detail!" ”
"Okay sister, you can help Xiaoniang and the third sister-in-law take care of the children with peace of mind, just me and He'er, as for Tian Niangzi, you and Li Qiang take care of your own children......"
Now in the whole team, there are only two men, Song Xiaoyu and Li Qiang, and so far, no one has seen the housekeeper Su Yu.
Song He'er asked Li Qiang as she walked, "Steward Li, why didn't Steward Su come to us, is he with the general?" ”
Hearing this, Li Qiang lowered his head, as if there was something unspeakable,
Li Qiang's daughter-in-law was anxious when she saw his twisting and pinching appearance, and directly waved her fist at his chest and asked, "A man, don't hesitate so much, say something quickly!" ”
"What are you hitting me for, just say it! Su Yu is gone, and like the eldest lady, she disappeared halfway, and she disappeared on the snowy mountain! ”
Missing in the snowy mountains?
Song He'er suddenly thought of the dead body, the male corpse that was thrown down from the mountain, was it Su Yu?
If you think about it carefully, this guess is indeed traceable, after all, there are few people in the general's mansion who are similar to the body of the corpse......
Song He'er was thinking about it, when Li Qiang's daughter-in-law suddenly shouted, "I remembered, that night, a dead man suddenly fell from the mountain...... Could it be ......?"
Qin Xiaoniang immediately interrupted her, "Okay, don't say it, Zhou Niangzi is staying in Xizhou now, her man has an accident, the first person to worry about should be her, not us, let's just take care of ourselves." ”
The more Li Qiang listened, the more confused he became, and finally couldn't help it, and asked, "She stayed in Xizhou!! This is a traitor to the enemy! Didn't those officers and soldiers interrogate you? ”
"Asked!"
"And what did you say?"
"Let's just say that I might die halfway, and I'll leave the matter of finding someone to the government, don't you ask about it, okay?" Li Qiang's daughter-in-law replied angrily.
