The three brothers and sisters of the Wu family also followed them to pick up the leak.

They didn't really want to look for something, they just wanted to take the opportunity to have a good relationship with Xiao Dalang and them.

Now most of the post stations are far away from the villages, so the small villages are also seven or eight miles away from here, and nine young men and girls walked all the way talking and looking like they had gone out to play in the spring.

"Look at the fish in the river over here?" Xiao Sanlang, who was looking around, pointed to the small fish that jumped up in the river and was not as big as a palm, and shouted excitedly, and then regretted: "It's a pity that we didn't bring fishing nets or fish baskets!" ”

Xiao Wei was afraid that he would fall into the river, so he hurriedly stepped forward and pulled him: "Be careful, this river doesn't look shallow." ”

There is also a lot of farmland in front of the village, but unfortunately the fields have been swept away at this time, and only some unripe rice has not yet been sold.

Well, Xiao Xiao admitted that what he thought was too beautiful before.

But now that they're here, they certainly don't want to go home empty-handed.

After a while, Xiao Wei pointed to a bamboo shelf behind a house, and couldn't hide his surprise: "Look, there are beans and loofahs over there, go pick them." ”

Beans, loofahs, water spinach, and amaranth and eggplant are all seasonal vegetables that are common in ordinary people's homes.

When there are many vegetables, you can buy two catties for a penny.

If it's far from town, it's not worth the effort to pick and sell.

Because the people in the neighboring villages will also pick and sell, if they can't sell it, they will either pick it back, or they will be taken away at a low price to dry, or they will be pickled.

More people sometimes simply use the vegetables they can't eat to feed pigs, chickens and ducks.

However, now that they have not eaten fresh vegetables for several days, they are all on the table of wild vegetables, which is of course very happy.

Not to mention that the Xiao family began to pick vegetables, even the three brothers and sisters of the Wu family also picked vegetables.

For them, the family is a restaurant, and they can often eat delicacies from the mountains and seas, and this bacon is not a rare thing.

Wu Erlang happened to see four or five palm-sized cucumbers on the cucumber shelf, so he immediately picked them, rubbed the small thorns on the outside of the cucumbers with a handkerchief, and ate them in a big gulp: "Come here, there are cucumbers here." ”

"Second Brother Wu is lucky!" Xiao Xiao also came over and picked one, and rubbed it with a handkerchief before eating.

Today's cucumbers are light yellow before they are ripe, and golden yellow when they are ripe, thicker than a fist.

Although the skin is rough and a little astringent, it is also crisp and delicious.

In fact, the only people who fled could take with them were the money and clothing that needed to be taken with them, as well as the food they had stored at home, or what they could harvest in the fields.

Soybeans, peanuts, corn, etc., although they are not yet ripe at this time, but the tender flavor is better, and people will definitely take them.

Many people's doors were kicked open, and the tables, chairs, baskets, and baskets inside were overturned to the ground, and some broken water tanks and crockpots were broken, indicating that this place was once visited by officers and soldiers, bandits, or people who wanted to take advantage of the opportunity.

Xiao Xiao also walked in cautiously, she was also one of the people who wanted to take advantage.

In every kitchen, it was really clean enough to starve rats to death, and there was not even a grain of rice left, a little oil and salt.

Iron pots and kitchen knives are also valuables, but they are certainly not likely to be left behind.

After walking a few houses, Xiao Xiao found several small tandoors, and asked for some clay pots.

This thing is heavy, plus she can pick 100 catties of vegetables and vegetables, she simply asked Xiao Erlang to run back to find her father to drive a mule cart to transport it.

None of them are people who carry baskets, so it's good to walk back by themselves.

It's a pity that the sweet potatoes in the field were also dug up.

Fortunately, the vegetables in the field can continue to grow after cutting off a stubble, so Xiao Xiao and they can be regarded as having a lot of harvest.

It doesn't matter if you can't eat the vegetables for a while, just take advantage of the good weather now and spread them on the roof of the car to dry them.

Not to mention, the relationship between the two children has become much more harmonious.

On the road after that, the Wu brothers would also follow them down for a while, hunting with Xiao Dalang and them, and going down to the fishing basket.

It's a pity that the technology is not good, and the harvest is not abundant.

Miss Wu will also come over to talk to the Xiao sisters and help them go to find wild vegetables.

Master Wu also deliberately took out the wine to drink with the three fathers and sons of the Xiao family, and also took the opportunity to confess to them, saying that although his sister was a concubine, she was a good concubine, and she was lucky to give birth to her eldest son.

As long as they can find someone safely, they will definitely be arranged.

The father and son of the Xiao family also understood in their hearts what Master Wu meant by 'safety'.

It's just to dispel the thoughts they shouldn't have, and in case something happens on the road, the Xiao family can also help, instead of treating them as a burden.

After walking for six days, I finally passed through Huining County.

Just in case, Xiao Youfu first took Xiao Dalang to investigate the current situation in Huining County, and the people left behind repaired in the hidden grove.

They also saw a lot of people fleeing with their families along the way, there were fewer horse-drawn carts, mule carts were common, and the most common ones were ox carts, and most of the people could only walk on their legs, holding the old ones, leading the few ones, or pushing the wheelbarrows.

It's really hard and embarrassing, and if you look at them more, you feel that your life is not too hard.

Now that the weather is hot, there are already more than 100 people resting on the edge of this forest.

Seeing their carriage and mule cart coming, there were envious eyes, unwilling eyes, and malicious eyes all fell on them.

Master Wu also felt that their carriage and mule cart were enough to dazzle the eyes, and if the food was too good, he was afraid that someone would have a bad heart.

He immediately asked his mother-in-law to cook wild vegetable porridge, and did not forget to remind the Xiao family to also cook a pot of wild vegetable porridge.

Xiao Xiao took a look after getting out of the car, and there was no trace of wild vegetables as far as her eyes could see, and then she saw the unkind eyes of those people, she simply asked the second uncle to take Ah Chang Ah with a knife and sit on the side to suppress the formation.

Not to mention, Second Uncle Xiao is worthy of killing pigs, and he is tall and big, even if he has lost some weight in the past few days, he can still be regarded as strong.

Ah Chang Ah Quan was injured a few days ago, and he was scared again, but he lost a lot of weight, and now he is standing behind Master Wu, who is still white and fat, with a knife, but he is also majestic.

It is said that the officials force the people to rebel, but until the last resort, the people are still afraid of being officials.

Therefore, those who had other plans looked away, suspecting in their hearts that they were official families that could not be provoked.

"It's still thoughtful that the third girl is thoughtful." Master Wu was worried, and he didn't want to drink wild vegetable porridge in his heart: "Then why don't we still cook porridge?" ”

Xiao Xiao just didn't want to drink porridge, so he came up with this idea, and hurriedly said: "We're going to cook gnocchi here, uncle, you are free." ”

Even if it's her now, she knows that it's not easy to be in charge.

It's only been six days, and there are forty or fifty catties of rice left.

Coarse noodles and thin noodles can only be eaten for one more meal.

Now she is looking forward to Huining County really making people peaceful, allowing them to go in and rest for two days and replenish rice noodles.

These days, it's all sunny days, and although it's so hot that people don't want to move, the advantage is that they can pick up some dry branches as firewood all the way, and now there is no shortage of firewood.

Old man Xiao was afraid that there would be too many people, so he beckoned the two families to cook together.

Xiao Xiao and the others finished eating the gnocchi, and before they saw the people who went to explore the way back, they were all a little anxious: "Grandfather, my father and they have been gone for almost an hour, right?" ”

"Well," the boss was not around, and the old man Xiao was also afraid of making trouble, so the second child couldn't hold back the scene, so he pretended to be relaxed and said: "Your father is greedy, maybe he will go first to have a big meal." ”

Xiao Sanlang, who was only six years old, took it seriously, and Hara all flowed out, and it was difficult to hide his grievances: "Why does the uncle only take the eldest brother to eat delicious food?" ”

grabbed Xiao Xiao's hand again, looking forward to it: "I'll be my eldest uncle and aunt's son in the future, right?" Then Uncle will hurt me the most, right? ”
