Chapter Twenty-Three: I Really Won't Be Blessed
"Mother, I'm sorry, it's all my fault."
As soon as he heard that Xiang Jiuling was looking for something wrong with him, Dabao couldn't help but feel guilty in his heart, and his eyes were a little red.
"It's okay, it's none of your business."
Xiang Jiuling touched his head, in the past, she was much more injured than this, but her face did not change, it seems that there are fewer life and death crises, and people's resistance to pressure will also decrease.
She comforted her a few more words before Dabao recovered.
The sky outside had completely darkened, and she couldn't see her fingers, and the temperature in the mountain was already low, so she took the sleepy Dabao into her arms before looking at Wen Xi on the side.
The latter didn't need her reminder, he had already found dry wood and started to make a fire, and it was the first time he saw someone drilling wood in front of her to make a fire, although there was already a little smoke, but there was still a certain distance from the flames.
"Use this."
Xiang Jiuling took out a flint and steel from his arms, threw it into Wen Xi's hand, and while he lit the fire, he picked up some dry wood that was easy to light and gathered together.
After a while, the fire rose and the heat spread, driving away the cold in the forest.
The two sat around the fire, and Xiang Jiuling took out a few more powders from his sleeve to drive away the beasts, "You will help spread this later, and then use some bushes to block the cave door, so that we should be able to have a peaceful night." ”
Wen Xi took the medicinal powder from Xiang Jiuling's hand, but his eyes seemed to be glued to her.
"What's wrong?"
"It's nothing, I just don't think I know much about you before."
I didn't expect to hear him answer like this, Xiang Jiuling couldn't help but be a little surprised, but Xuan even smiled, "Then let's understand it slowly in the future." ”
"Hmm."
The night was uneventful.
At dawn the next day, Wen Xi consciously squatted in front of Xiang Jiuling, who no longer twisted and climbed up quickly, and this night eased the relationship between the two a lot.
After that, they took Dabao down the mountain.
The second treasure of the family also took care of Sanni sensibly, and the two children were relieved when they saw their father and brother return safely.
Of course, Dabao also realized his mistake again and repeatedly promised that he would not run around alone.
In the following days, Xiang Jiuling's consciousness space was also upgraded, she used some seeds obtained in the space and farming methods to start experiments, Wen Xi successfully reclaimed three fields, Xiang Jiuling also planted a lot of fruits and vegetables in it, plus fertilizing with the water of the space, the fruits and vegetables grew very fast.
After a month's time, the three acres of fields, which were originally bare, were bearing fruit.
Although Wen Xi was a little surprised, it was not like he hadn't seen magical things happen these days, and he gradually got used to it.
Especially when he saw Xiang Jiuling and the three children happy, he also felt a little satisfied in his heart.
"This kind of life doesn't seem like a good thing."
The corners of his mouth curled.
This scene happened to be seen by Xiang Jiuling on the side, and a look of surprise suddenly flashed in her eyes, and she suddenly understood why the original owner forced him to marry her when she saw Wen Xi.
It is said that women are bad for people, and sometimes, men are no exception.
Sure enough, everyone loves beautiful things.
"What are you looking at?"
"Look at you."
Xiang Jiuling blurted out that she realized what she had said, and hurriedly covered her mouth, and secretly cursed a beautiful woman, "I...... I didn't mean that. ”
She wanted to explain something, but she saw several children hugging her, and she didn't forget to joke and say, "My mother was stunned when I saw my father, and my mother was ashamed." ”
This time, it was really useless for her to explain, and her face turned red in an instant.
"Alright, you guys are going to play."
Seeing what they were going to say, Wen Xi interrupted in time and rescued Xiang Jiuling from his embarrassment.
"In recent days, when there has been a disaster, we can not only ensure food and clothing, but also take some things to the bottom of the mountain to sell, and we can also help some other villagers in exchange for some things we need."
His words made the red on Dexiang Jiuling's face fade, and he also said with a straight face: "I also think it's okay." ”
The reason why it is not sent directly is naturally to avoid causing random robbery, after all, people's hearts cannot be tempted at this time.
Both of them are action-oriented, and after sorting and picking some vegetables, they took a few children down the mountain to sell them, because Wen Xi was guarding them, and the whole process was also thrilling, and they exchanged some materials they needed.
So, they would go down the mountain every once in a while, and gradually, the news that Xiang Jiuling's family had a lot of food was spread.
Because of Wen Xi's deterrence, coupled with the fact that he didn't know the specific situation on the mountain, those people didn't dare to have any crooked thoughts, but this didn't have any effect on some people.
Mrs. Lin recognized that the person who came to change things every time was Xiang Jiuling, her eyes rolled, and she immediately ran to the Xiang family, who had just joined the team.
"Yo, Brother Xiang, you really won't be happy!"
"Blessed? What's the blessing? ”
These words made Xiangli often stunned, a little unclear why, their family was ruined, and now they are in the team fleeing the famine, and they don't have enough food and clothing every day, what blessings do they have?
Seeing that Xiangli Chang Zhen looked unclear, Mrs. Lin said in a strange manner, "Ouch, it seems that you don't know yet, now your daughter is very capable, and she doesn't know where to get the food every day to exchange things with the people in our team, I heard that their family lives in the mountains, and there is so much food that they can't eat it at all." ”
"Brother Xiang, you are such a good daughter, but you ......"
At this point, it is impossible for Xiangli not to understand what this means, but when she thinks of her daughter who is a master and has low eyes, she can't believe that she can have endless food in such a year of famine, this is ......
In the end, he can only blame the man who must be married to Xiang Jiuling!
As soon as Xiangyue came back, Xiangli often couldn't wait to tell her the news.
Xiangyue has always been disgusted with his lazy daughter, and he didn't believe it at this time, "Who did you listen to, is it true or false?" ”
"Listening to Mrs. Lin's tone, it seems to be true!"
Mrs. Lin and they are in the same village, so they naturally know Xiang Jiuling, so they should not admit their mistake, and Xiang Yue's family immediately rejoiced.
Before, they drove people out because they disliked Xiang Jiuling, but now when they heard the news, they couldn't sit still, so the two took their precious son Xiang Erhu up the mountain after summing up.
When they just climbed up, Xiang Jiuling and the others were still picking in the field, and they looked over when they heard the voice.
And when Xiang Yue saw those fresh and delicate vegetables and fruits, her eyes were bright and red, and Xiang Erhu next to her was even worse, almost falling out of saliva.
