"Thank you, mother!"
After Chen picked up some for her daughter-in-law, she picked up a piece for Shu as well and praised her.
Shu was even more flattered.
He also gave some to Meng Liqian and Meng Lihou, and finally to the grandson and son, and then to the old man.
After a round, only wild vegetables and soup were left in the big bowl of stewed meat.
Chen gave meat to everyone except herself.
"Mom, you eat too."
Leng Yingshuang couldn't bear to see her like that, so she took a piece of meat from her own bowl and gave it to her mother-in-law.
Chen was so moved that she felt more and more that she had been senile and confused in the past.
"Mom has just eaten, you can eat now."
Chen wanted to return the piece of meat to Leng Yingshuang.
"Mom, you eat."
Leng Yingshuang's face turned serious, and Chen nodded and raised it to take a bite.
The whole family was busy eating and pretending not to see.
Only Meng Shuyan dared to see and speak.
[Wow, when did mom become so powerful!
Even grandma has to look at mom’s mood?
Or is it because Qiao Qinglu died, and everyone has returned to their true selves?】
The others didn't seem to mind listening to it, but Leng Yingshuang seemed a little stiff.
She was very worried that her daughter would think that her mother was very vicious.
In fact, she had thought about it carefully and felt that being kind all the time would make it easy to be bullied.
You have to be a little more aggressive and ruthless to survive better.
For example, she was too kind in the past, so she was noticed by Qiao Qinglu and her fortune was taken away.
Her husband was away from home all day, and her mother-in-law felt that she was too weak and could be bullied to support a family, so she thought about replacing her.
After the migration began, she didn't want to endure it anymore and didn't want to pretend to be a lady anymore because her father had died, her daughter had just been born, and her husband was still thinking about another woman.
Otherwise, she and her daughter might not survive.
Then I felt that this was really useful, and I didn’t want to endure or give in anymore, and I just did whatever made me happy.
But she didn't want her daughter to be afraid of her.
[I’m pretending to be awesome to get Grandma to eat meat, but I’m really cool like this!]
Meng Shuyan's words made the whole family breathe a sigh of relief.
Seeing that her daughter understood her, Leng Yingshuang ate her meal happily.
Chen also happily finished eating the meat given by her daughter-in-law in the bowl.
The family members pushed and shoved each other, sharing the last wild vegetables and broth in the pot and eating their fill.
In order to save water, Ji and Shu only used half a bucket of water when washing dishes.
First wet the rag, then wipe the bowl. Ji wipes the first time, and Shu wipes the second time.
There was not much oil or water in the bowl to begin with, so they ate it almost as clean as if they had licked it. They wiped it twice with a wet rag and then wiped it dry with a clean rag.
Put it in the same cleaned pot and cover it with a lid.
【I learned something new. I didn’t know there’s a way to wash bowls. 】
Meng Shuyan was shocked by this way of washing dishes.
After dinner, I prepared to go to bed.
There were only two families living in the village, and many of them had not yet set up their tents, so they thought of going into the village to see if they could find shelter for the night.
It's better to sleep in the house than on the floor.
Maybe you can find something useful.
Those houses had been unoccupied for at least one or two years, or even three. If someone were to fall asleep in the middle of the night and the roof collapsed, crushing them to death, it wouldn't be unfair.
Meng Shuyan looked at those people rushing forward and felt that they would definitely end up empty-handed.
[Besides, there are still two families in this village.
There are no good things here, they have already been bought by other people, and they are still waiting for you to pick them up at a bargain price.
Meng Shijie, Meng Shuxia and Meng Shuqiu were just thinking about going into the village to see if they could get any bargains, when they heard Fubao's voice.
The three of them decided not to go and just go to bed.
When I thought about washing, I remembered that their water had not been replenished yet.
Meng Shijie went to question the officer.
"Brother, we are running out of water, where can we get water nearby?
I should go get some water to store, in case the situation on the road is the same as before, it would be bad."
“Alas, we asked about this as soon as we entered the village.
They said there was no water here.
The only well in the village has run dry.
I was already preparing to leave, and if that old man hadn't passed away today, I would have left tomorrow as well."
As soon as the officer finished speaking, everyone who heard it panicked.
“Without water, how can we go on?
The water Doushi used to cook tonight was borrowed from someone else."
Most of the people in the Wang family were very timid. Because of Ning Zhuoying, they were afraid that Ning Zhuoying would come to seek revenge on them in the middle of the night and they would be beaten. So they would set up tents closely following the officers at night.
"That's right, there's no water in my house either."
The other few who also had no water followed suit and spoke anxiously.
"Everyone, go to bed early. We'll set off early tomorrow morning and arrive in Runing Prefecture soon."
He didn't know about other places, but in a city like Runing Prefecture, there must be people.
Where there are people, there is water.
"Yeah, go to sleep quickly. Stop talking. The more you talk, the drier your mouth becomes. You won't even have water to drink."
The person who was about to speak shut up after hearing this.
Meng Shuyan picked another half pound of wild vegetables in the space. She was so tired that she drank some spiritual spring water and went to sleep.
I was awakened by a miserable cry in the middle of the night.
The two families in the village carried the old man to the back slope and buried him.
"Dad! Have a safe journey~~"
The son and daughter-in-law walked, scattering paper money and shouting to clear the way.
"Farewell, Dad~ Woo woo..."
There's nothing we can do about it since they're having a funeral. Even if the people who are woken up are unhappy, they won't say anything.
