"Ouch! I am sorry for being rude. I don't mean to offend you. I'll give you the pass!"
Li Yanbo, the son of the Li family, was catching rabbits nearby with everyone. He saw an abandoned manhole cover and opened it to find that it was full of various vegetables!
He was so frightened that he quickly put the manhole cover back.
But he never expected that he would be slapped by Lin Shaoxuan immediately.
"Bookworm! Look carefully, is there anyone else around here besides us?!"
The group looked around and found two abandoned thatched houses not far away. They were probably in the backyard of a farmer.
It was just that the area had not been cleaned for a while, and was covered with weeds and snow. They were just trying to catch rabbits, so they accidentally broke in.
Li Yanbo was slapped and immediately retorted angrily:
"The vegetables in this cellar are neatly arranged. It's obvious that they are stored by this farmer for the winter. I opened it by accident, regardless of whether the farmer is here or not. Of course I have to apologize!"
Everyone thought about it and realized that this was the truth. Their good mood for a big meal was immediately destroyed.
But at this moment, Sheng Nanxi was seen waving her chubby little ponytail and pointing to the southwest. She was yelling in a baby voice:
"Lali! Lali! Lali smells like blood!"
The little fat girl looked soft and cute. When she was excited, some crystal tears hung from the corners of her mouth.
At this time, no one questioned her anymore, and they all ran in the direction she pointed.
Not long after they walked, they saw several human skeletons in the woods not far away!
"Oh my god! These people have been dead for at least a month, and you can't even smell it!"
"Sheng San! Your sister is a genius! Absolutely a genius!"
"These people look like they were being eaten by wild animals... It's so pitiful."
“…”
The young men who followed were shocked by Sheng Nancy's keen five senses, and also felt some sympathy for those who had died long ago.
Everyone squatted down to take a look, and all guessed that it was the body of this farmer.
The food in the cellar must have been prepared by the farmer to survive the winter. Unfortunately, the family was attacked by wild beasts and all died.
Everyone was so sad that they dug a hole and buried the remains of the family.
When he looked at Sheng Nanxi again, his eyes were full of amazement.
But they didn't think much of it. This year, one or two legends about child prodigies popped up from time to time.
In the eyes of everyone, Sheng Nanxi is also a little kid who is more talented than ordinary people.
"Hehe~ Actually, I'm not that great~"
Nancy Sheng continued to play the role of a three-year-old cute kid. She waved her hands at the crowd in a humble manner, but in fact she secretly puffed out her chest with a smug expression on her face.
Sheng Yichen also had a proud expression on his face, and very naturally accepted everyone's envious gazes.
The food would go bad if it was left in the cellar without anyone eating it. The people didn't hesitate and immediately decided to take out all the vegetables and bacon in the cellar.
When checking the abandoned thatched hut, we found several large bags of brown rice inside!
Of course! These things were all secretly put there by Sheng Nanxi.
Not far away earlier, she had sensed something unusual in this area.
The family had indeed been killed in a wild beast attack, but there was not much food left in the house.
However, it was also convenient for Sheng Nanxi to use it as a loan to move the food in the space.
The people who followed were all the sons of the Liu and Li families. One was a noble family, and the other was a scholarly family. They were all exiled because they had offended Prime Minister He.
Both families have excellent traditions, and the sons and daughters are loyal.
They all said that it was thanks to Xiao Xier that they were able to find so much food. They all piled the food they found in the farmers' homes in front of Sheng Yichen, letting him eat whatever he wanted.
There were so many vegetables, grains and meats that it was almost as high as a small building. It looked like a gathering place in the town during the Chinese New Year.
The two siblings whispered to each other. They both felt that they had helped to move things together.
Besides, we all see each other every day, so it is necessary to build good relations with these two families. We can share some benefits with everyone appropriately.
Sheng Yichen immediately squatted down and picked out all the food that Xier liked to eat.
He selected enough food for the family to eat for the next few days and then distributed the rest to the sons of the Liu and Li families who had come with them.
It was the first time since they were exiled that they had seen such a rich feast, and they were all delighted. They all rushed to help Sheng Yichen get food.
When everyone returned to the camp, the people from the Liu and Li families were all shocked to see the boys returning with full loads.
After hearing that the food was found by the Sheng family's little Fubao by accident, they were even more grateful and all ran to play with little Xier.
A group of aunts and sisters held little Xier in their arms, lifted her up high, spun her around, and pinched her cheeks, looking very cute.
Sheng Yichen kept staring at Sheng Nanxi who was surrounded by the crowd without blinking.
Seeing his little sister with a big smile on her face, she made jokes and faces, making the aunts laugh.
For a moment I didn’t know who was making whom happy…
Seeing that the little sister was tired of playing, he smiled and tried to smooth things over, and took her back.
In the Sheng family's eldest house, everyone had harvested so many delicious foods every day, and their faces were all beaming with joy.
Fortunately, Li Zhenyi and Yun Jinxiao quickly processed the two huge tiger skins and were just waiting to dry and soften them before cutting small clothes for Xier.
Since it was inconvenient to cook in the wild, Li Zhenyi had to borrow a large pot from the official. She cut the tiger meat from yesterday into pieces and stewed it with various vegetables.
He built a small fire on the other side and cooked pumpkin porridge for Xier and her grandmother in a small pot.
They had more food than they could eat, so they had to keep the few rabbits they had caught the previous day and eat them later.
The father and son of the Lin family have been following the eldest branch of the Sheng family for a living recently, and have also been diligently helping Li Zhenyi and Yun Jin.
The adults were busy with their own things. Sheng Nanxi was squatting on the ground, babbling and making a snowman.
In fact, he was secretly turning up the heat while quietly adding his favorite seasonings to the two pots.
Not long after, a heady aroma emanated from the Sheng family's main room.
It was the first time for everyone to have such a sumptuous dinner since their exile. After making a large bowl of stew and sharing it with the official, the family gathered around the stove and enjoyed it.
It was time for dinner. The Liu and Li families also knew that Tian was able to eat so many good things thanks to the eldest wife of the Sheng family.
They all brought their own roasted game to add to their meals. Sheng Yichen immediately smiled and gave them some food in return.
Several families were sitting around the fires, filled with laughter and joy.
The Sheng family's Yifang branch, which was some distance away from them, and several families that were on good terms with the Yifang branch seemed quite deserted.
None of them has such good skills as Sheng Yichen and Lin Shaoxuan, father and son.
Previously, the officials allowed them to forage for food on their own, but they only dared to walk around nearby.
As a result, I couldn't find anything to eat, so I had to come back and drink the free brown rice porridge and black flour steamed buns.
Those who were better off only had to spend a little money to buy some white flour steamed buns and lean meat soup without much oil from the officials.
At this time, the aroma of meat from Dafang and the neighbors was like free, drilling into my nose. The steamed buns that I had managed to swallow at first tasted like chewing wax.
The more I eat, the hungrier I get, and the louder my stomach growls.
But the eldest branch of the Sheng family was full of strong and capable men. The families around the second branch of the Sheng family did not dare to express their complaints. The complaints and jealousy in their hearts were all written on their faces.
Their bad mood did not affect Sheng Nanxi at all. The little girl was very satisfied with the meal she had today, and her belly was full.
After playing in the snow with her third brother for a long time, it was getting late, so Li Zhenyi boiled a pot of hot water for her to wash her body, and then carried the little girl into the warm tent.
But Sheng Nanxi is a good baby who loves cleanliness. In order to prevent tooth decay, she would sneak into the room every night and wash up carefully before going to bed.
The moon moved lower and lower, and the exile team quickly packed up and fell asleep.
The camp gradually became quiet. Sheng Nanxi suddenly opened her big obsidian eyes and reached out to poke Sheng Yichen who was sleeping beside her.
"Third brother, there is danger!"
