"Two more bags, too." Tang Li said.
Wei Qing looked at her in surprise, somewhat puzzled by her behavior.
Tang Li raised his eyebrows: "You can't carry it, right?"
How can a man be incompetent in front of his wife? !
Wei Qing suppressed his confusion, only remaining with a competitive spirit: "How is that possible? Let alone six bags, I can carry even six more!"
Finally, Wei Qing bought three bags of rice and three bags of noodles, put them in a large bag, and carried them on his back. This man was as strong as an ox, carrying four or five hundred kilograms of things without any pressure!
Tangli also carried a package on his back, which contained cotton-padded jackets for winter and food for the babies. The two of them hurried home together.
By the time we got home, it was already dark.
At Aunt Wang's house, three babies were clinging to the fence and looking towards the village entrance with eager eyes. When they saw Tang Li and Wei Qing, their eyes suddenly lit up.
The three babies rushed to Tangli like small weights and surrounded Tangli.
"Mom, let me help you get it!" Dabao said sensibly.
Tangli took down his package and placed it on the big baby's back. Although it was not heavy for the big baby, the package was bigger than him.
Sanbao said in a baby voice, "Big brother looks like a turtle."
At first glance, it really looks like a turtle crawling on the ground. It's so cute.
Hearing everyone laughing at him, Dabao didn't get angry. He hunched his back, stretched out his two little hands and paddled forward, pretending to crawl like a turtle, which made Sanbao laugh so hard that he fell forward and backward and hiccuped with laughter.
When the family of five returned home, Erbaobao ran to pour a glass of water for Tangli and Wei Qing.
The third baby clenched his little fists and punched Tang Li's legs, then punched Wei Qing's legs, his little body twisting and turning with a wheezing sound.
Madam and Daddy have walked so much, their legs must be sore!
A warm feeling welled up in Tangli's heart again. These three babies were so well-behaved and sensible.
Dinner was buns brought back from town.
These buns are much more expensive than flour. A man like Wei Qing naturally cannot make buns. He only brings some for the three babies when he goes to town. Therefore, the buns are considered a luxurious meal, and the three babies enjoy eating them very much.
After dinner, Tang Li asked Wei Qing to hide the food.
Wei Qing always felt that Tang Li looked like a mouse hoarding food, and he laughed at her.
Tang Li rolled his eyes at him and said, "Yes, I am just stockpiling food. After a while, you will understand the importance of stockpiling food."
Wei Qing didn't take it to heart.
Winter is coming. Once winter comes, nothing can be planted in the fields and there are not many prey in the mountains. So during this period, Wei Qing goes to the mountains very frequently, almost every day.
A few days later, when Wei Qing went to the town, he felt something was wrong. The town seemed to have suddenly become more populated, many of them wealthy people from other places. These people brought their families with them, and it seemed like they were going to live here permanently.
Soon, the news spread in the village. It was said that a war was going to happen, and everyone was asked to store up food quickly.
Many people in the village rushed to the town before dawn, but returned empty-handed at the end of the day because all the food in the town had been sold out!
When Wei Qing heard the news, he thought of Tang Li asking him to buy more food...
Did she really know something?
No matter what, it was thanks to her that we stocked up on food, otherwise several families would have starved.
His wife is such a lucky charm.
…
There was food stored at home and Wei Qing was hardworking, so Tangli didn't need to work at all. Tangli liked little babies, so she was responsible for taking care of the three babies at home. The two of them had their own division of labor, and their lives were getting better and better.
The Tangli carp was raised to become much plumper, its shriveled body gradually gaining flesh, and the necessary growth areas were also growing...
But unexpectedly, that night, Tangli had a dream. In the dream, Wei Qing was carrying a few pheasants in the forest and was suddenly surrounded by a group of wolves. Wei Qing took a stick and started fighting with the wolves.
Wei Qing was fierce, but there were too many wolves in the pack. After a fierce battle, all the wolves died, but Wei Qing was also injured. He fell in the cold wind with blood all over the ground.
He just lay there for who knows how long, and it seemed like all the blood had drained out...
After a long time, someone who had gone into the mountains encountered him and rescued him. However, he had lost one leg, unable to walk or hunt. He spent his days lying in bed, his leg rotten and maggot-infested. His three babies were also adopted by others, and the family was broken up.
Tang Li suddenly opened his eyes, his heart pounding, and the feeling of palpitations was particularly obvious.
The seat next to him was empty. Tangli looked at the sun again and found it was already late. Tangli ran to the woodshed and saw that the bow and arrow, knife and fork used for hunting were gone. It seemed that Wei Qing had already gone into the mountains!
Tangli comforted herself, it was just a dream, don't worry.
However, when the sun set and Wei Qing still hadn't returned, Tang Li started to feel uneasy. In the past, Wei Qing always returned before sunset!
Tangli walked back and forth in the yard, feeling more and more uneasy.
She suddenly thought of something. The novel described that the villain had some problems with his legs, which matched the scene in her dream!
If such a dashing and energetic man really had problems with his legs...
No! She has to go into the mountains to take a look!
However, she had never been into the back mountain before. If she went in rashly, not only would she not be able to find Wei Qing, she might also get herself killed!
Tangli bit her lip and made a decision.
She brought her three babies to Aunt Wang's house and gave Aunt Wang two white flour buns.
"Auntie, this is for Erdan!"
Erdan is Aunt Wang’s grandson, slightly older than Dabao.
Food is in short supply now, and every household is tightening their belts to eat frugally. These two white flour buns are good things.
Aunt Wang was embarrassed to answer: "This... How can I be so embarrassed?"
Tang Li placed the things directly on her stove: "Aunt Wang, please help me take care of the three children. Also, I want to trouble you for something..."
"I want to go into the mountains now. Could you please ask Erdan's father to show me the way?"
"Going into the mountains so late?" Aunt Wang was surprised.
"Wei Qing hasn't come back yet, I'm a little worried." Tang Li said, and took out another ounce of silver from his pocket and handed it to Aunt Wang, "Aunt, please help me!"
This one or two taels of silver is not a small amount!
Seeing that she was really anxious, Aunt Wang called her husband to discuss the matter, and finally decided that Aunt Wang's husband and eldest son would take Tangli into the mountains.
The three of them hurried into the mountains. At first, it was still light outside and the road was easier to walk on.
Aunt Wang's husband, Li Dashan, said this was the only way into the mountains. Tang Li actually hoped to run into Wei Qing along the way; that dream was just a dream.
However, after walking for almost an hour and not meeting anyone, Tang Li's heart sank.
The three men walked forward for a while with torches, and then Li Dashan stopped.
"Wei Qing's wife can't go forward." Li Dashan said.
"Uncle Dashan, what happened up ahead?" Tang Li asked.
"The mountain ahead is called Bear Mountain. There are bears there. We don't dare go there during the day. Only someone as powerful as Wei Qing would dare to go there!" Li Dashan said with fear on his face. "Many people in the village have died on Bear Mountain!"
"How about coming early tomorrow morning? And calling more people from the village?" Li Dashan's son also suggested.
Tang Li looked at the dark forest. She understood Li Dashan and his son very well. No one was willing to risk their life. But when she closed her eyes, all she could think of was Wei Qing lying in a pool of blood.
Tang Li gritted his teeth and said, "Uncle Li, Brother Li, you go back first. Light a torch for me, I'll go alone!"
