"No..... Gone! ”

"Tell the truth!"

The man trembled with fright and shook his head repeatedly, "It's gone...... It's gone, it's gone......"

Zhang Xiu'e threw away the stone and let Song Xiaoyu and Li Qiang let go of a few people.

If you just look at the head, these fierce men also have some kung fu in their hands, but they have been hungry for too long and their physical strength is a little exhausted, so they were easily taken down.

"Get out, get out of here, the farther the better, if you do these unconscionable things again, your aunt and grandmother will screw off your dog's head, remember?"

The man who was beaten was obviously still a little unconvinced, but now he had to nod obediently, not daring to say anything else.

Seeing that those people stumbled away, everyone took a step and walked towards the mother and son......

It's a pity that the child's crying voice is hoarse, and his face is still frostbitten because of the wind.

They are all people with children, and Qin Xiaoniang is extremely sad to see it.

"Get up, it's cold on the ground, those people have already gone far away, and they won't come to you for trouble......" Qin Xiaoniang helped her up from the ground.

The child may be the reason for the cold, and he has been shivering all the time, and he is weak even crying.

The woman sniffed and replied tremblingly, "Thank you for the rescue." ”

Zhang Xiu'e looked her up and down, stepped forward and asked, "Where are you from, what happened to your family and you were exiled here, what about your man?" ”

The woman sobbed for a long time, the more she cried, the more sad she became, and after a long time, she replied: "We are from Yuzhou, because my father-in-law is corrupt, so the whole family was demoted here, because the environment here is really not suitable for life, my father-in-law died of a serious illness, my man ...... My man was ...... by a group of villains the day before yesterday Beat to death! ”

Then the woman began to weep miserably.

Song He'er was somewhat sympathetic to her plight, although they were all exiled, but now all her relatives have disappeared, leaving her alone to survive in this wild place.

If I hadn't met them today, I wouldn't have been able to keep the child in my arms, right?

"What about the others? None of them? Qin Xiaoniang asked.

The woman shook her head, "Those who flee and those who go, they are all taking care of themselves, who will care if we live or die." ”

Qin Xiaoniang and Zhang Xiu'e glanced at each other, not knowing what to say, now that they are already difficult to protect themselves, naturally they can't eat with two more mouths, so it is impossible to take them in.

Thinking like this, Qin Xiaoniang could only helplessly take out two dry cakes from the officers and soldiers from her baggage and hand them to the woman, and now that's all she can do.

The woman seemed to be very hungry, so she took it and devoured it into her mouth, and while eating it herself, she did not forget to break off a bite and feed it to the child.

But the cake was dry and hard, and when it reached the child's mouth, it could only roll back and forth, and it could not be swallowed at all.

If you soak it in hot water, you can still eat it.

"Are there a lot of people up ahead?" Zhang Xiu'e asked suddenly.

The woman nodded as she ate, "The further you go, the more people there are, and there are prisoners everywhere, all of whom are huddled together to sleep, some of them are rich in their homes, and they have brought tents and cotton clothes, and some have no place to live, and some are frozen to death......

Hearing her say this, Song He'er became more and more sure that Song Xiaoqi must be in front.

Zhang Xiu'e comforted the woman politely, and then led everyone forward and left the lot.....

Chun Rao turned her head, looked at the miserable woman, and said, "Actually, they are really pitiful, those damn men may still find trouble with them, it is better to ask her to follow us." ”

Zhang Xiu'e smiled, patted Chunrao's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Natural selection, in this kind of place, we can't pity others, God knows if someone will help us when we can't get along, you are young, it is normal to be kind, but the main thing now is to face the reality and do what you can." ”

Qin Xiaoniang felt that Zhang Xiu'e saw through and what she said was reasonable, so she persuaded her together: "We saved her once, it was because we happened to bump into her, but we don't know that in this Xinzhou territory, there are more old and weak women and children who are being bullied by others, so do we have to take care of it?" ”

Chun Rao sighed and shook her head helplessly, "In this world, women are always the most miserable ......"

Song He'er knew that she remembered that humiliating thing again, so she was heartbroken for the man, and in order to prevent her from falling into worry again, she could only quickly change the topic.

"Fourth aunt, you are the most proficient in poetry, why don't you teach the children poetry books after we stabilize?"

"Me?"

"Yes, although we can't get out, we can't let Sister Nian and her children do nothing for the rest of their lives, right? Always learn something to enrich your life. ”

"What's so hard about this, no problem." Chunrao smiled and replied.

The crowd did not speak, but continued on their way......

As the woman said, the road became more and more lively, and gradually you could see all kinds of tents and even a few adobe huts.

Zhang Xiu'e couldn't help but be a little surprised, "They can build a house?" ”

"There's so much soil here, why can't it be built? As long as you have the physical strength, as long as you are not bullied by others, you can do whatever you want! Song Xiaoyu replied.

"Then we can build a big house! That way, you don't have to freeze in your tent! Zhang Xiu'e said excitedly.

"It's not as easy as you think, every piece of chassis here is something they fought for, how can they take root casually, or find a clean place, and save day and night to quarrel with people!" Song Chengyu is a person who likes to be clean and doesn't like to waste time on trivial things.

However, Song He'er's thoughts are very different from him, since he has come here, he has to sharpen his head and live desperately, instead of relying on God's gift.

"Third uncle, don't you blindly hide away, is this place given to them by the imperial court? Or is their name registered? Since it's neither, then we have to compete fairly, and where we are idle, we have the right to use it, why should we hide! ”

Zhang Xiu'e smiled and directly gave Song Xiaoyu a slap, "You are not as good as a child, you have lived for more than thirty years in vain!" ”

"Why are you hitting me again?"

"I'm beating you stupid! It's not as good as a woman! ”

"You ......"

Qin Xiaoniang pulled Zhang Xiu'e aside and persuaded: "Don't make noise, outside, you must always give the man some face, okay..... Let's go ahead and see what's going on......"
