Chapter 17: Father and Mother are reconciled

"Mother...... My mother just cooked for us. ”

Sanni on the side also immediately followed and said: "Yes, Daddy, my mother has been taking care of us all the way, even if there is an injury on our hands, she has to cook for us." ”

Of course, Xiang Jiuling's injury was not caused while cooking, but the wound would be discovered sooner or later, so she lied to the children.

The little girl didn't know the actual situation, and her tone was innocent: "The opening on my mother's hand is so long, when will it be good, is it good to blow it on her." ”

"Got it, Daddy just go get some ointment for your mother."

Wen Xi sighed silently and reached out to touch Sanni's little head.

After thinking about the events of the past two days, he didn't notice that her hand was injured? When did this happen? Is there really a misunderstanding?

Wen Xi naturally didn't think that Xiang Jiuling was as vicious as Old Lady Ji said, if she was really so cold-hearted and ruthless, she wouldn't care about the children's lives or deaths.

I don't know how many people fled the famine, let alone a few who sold their sons and daughters, not only did she not move those thoughts, but also bothered about their food and drink, I am afraid that he really thought too much.

He didn't think it was strange to say that Xiang Jiuling had done such a thing before, but now that she was her, he always felt that she would not do such a thing.

Xiang Jiuling was cooking at night, and the wound on her hand was simply bandaged, without careful treatment, and there was a tingling pain from time to time.

But what is this compared to those thrills?

When Wen Xi walked in, his gaze unconsciously paused on Xiang Jiuling's hand: "It's all injured, why don't you say it?" ”

"You...... How do you know? ”

As soon as Xiang Jiuling finished speaking, he realized that this must have been told to him by the children, otherwise how could he have noticed?

"If you are injured and still cook, is it now that you are asked to carry stones, you can also carry them, and if you are told the truth, you will not be willing, as if you want your life."

Wen Xi saw the wound in her palm, and knew at a glance that it was a sharp blade injury, so she said a few sarcastic words and got up to find medicine for her.

To put it bluntly, he is hard-mouthed and soft-hearted.

"Actually...... I picked up those things. ”

Xiang Jiuling only said this, which is also the truth.

She just didn't want him to know about the horse bandits, in case he wanted to go to them on the spur of the moment, those people were all fierce and vicious, they were all ruthless characters who killed people without blinking, and it was not a good thing to fight them.

And it's easier to reveal her identity, because she killed one of them before she left, and the horse bandits should still be looking for her at this time.

……

The leader was so angry that his face turned pale: "It's impossible for her to run away with a woman and a child, why can't she find anyone after looking for so long?" ”

"There's a cliff over there, maybe the two of them have fallen off the cliff and died."

The leader's face was full of anger: "She died so easily, wouldn't it be cheaper for her!" ”

As soon as he thought of the tragic death of the sixth child, his finger bones were pinched and creaked by him.

It seems that he underestimated the woman, who could kill people in such a short period of time and hide with a child, is obviously not a simple person.

He slowly narrowed his eyes: "Okay, rest for a while, and then continue to look for it, don't ask me to find it, otherwise I will break her bones." ”

If Dabao saw his look, he would definitely cry in fright.

Xiang Jiuling didn't worry about any horse bandits coming over, after all, they were taking a detour, and it was impossible for them to stay in this area for a long time, after all, the officers and soldiers were strictly investigated.

They couldn't have imagined that she would be in this small village.

"Okay, wipe the medicine first."

Wen Xi's voice pulled Xiang Jiuling's thoughts back, just in time to meet Dabao's worried gaze.

She knew what the kid was thinking, and he must have wondered, why hadn't he told the truth until now?

But she has her considerations, and if she says it, Mrs. Ji will have something to do.

Now the whole village has misunderstood that she is a thief, and if Mrs. Ji knows about the horse bandits, she will definitely say even more ugly words, and even take the opportunity to let their family leave the army.

The old lady's mouth is quite powerful, and she can be said to be a live horse by her, and she doesn't seem to have anything serious to do, so she knows how to make irresponsible remarks and sow discord.

She is too lazy to deal with this kind of person, and more is better than less.

Seeing that the children were all looking at him, Xiang Jiuling could only smile at the little guy and said softly: "You guys wait, just wait for a while." ”

Wen Xi is still looking for medicine.

Looking at his serious back, Xiang Jiuling didn't say anything, but his heart was extremely happy, and the corners of his mouth slowly rose.

"Mother, it's great that you're finally smiling!"

Sanni has always been innocent and cute when she speaks, and when she saw Xiang Jiuling smiling, she was also happy.

The little girl didn't know much about stealing, she only knew that it was wrong to take other people's things, but in her consciousness, those things were picked up from the mountains, and they couldn't be stolen at all.

But she was young and didn't know how to explain it, so she could only be in a hurry.

Although they were just children, they all knew that Xiang Jiuling was sad because of Wen Xi's suspicion of quarreling, and they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they saw the two reconcile at this time.

Dabao's tense nerves also relaxed.

Thinking of the previous incident, he was still a little afraid that he would know that his mother was misunderstood by others, and that Mrs. Ji had spread rumors, and his heart became more and more uncomfortable.

Erbao also coaxed, and his tone was extremely excited: "Daddy and mother have finally reconciled, great!" ”

Listening to the children's coaxing, Xiang Jiuling's face turned red, and her heart felt like a small stone had been thrown down, and there were ripples all of a sudden.

"Alright, don't say anything, get ready to eat."

In fact, Xiang Jiuling was also a little worried in her heart, worried that Wen Xi really believed those rumors.

To be honest, those rumors are ridiculous, and the more they spread, the more unseemly they become, and what is even more terrifying is that there are still people who believe them.

Wen Xi had his own judgment, although he suspected that those things were stolen, he didn't think in other directions, and he didn't expect this matter to spread so badly.

A few children were still coaxing there, and Xiang Jiuling's eyes were filled with layers of smiles, and he couldn't help but pat Dabao's head.

Dabao straightened his waist at this time, and his expression was like saying, rest assured, he will never tell the secret between them.

This serious appearance successfully made Xiang Jiuling laugh, and the family sat happily to eat together.

With the increase in the number of days of survival, the number of times Xiang Jiuling's consciousness space can be used has gradually increased, but she doesn't dare to blatantly take too many things out, so she can only secretly take some useful living materials, so the life of the family is relatively fulfilling.

Of course, you have to show weakness where you should show weakness, and you can't live too well, otherwise there will always be those people with sore eyes.
