Aunt Liu opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but when she saw Su Qi's cold expression, she felt a little scared of her, so she closed her mouth and said nothing.
Su Qi naturally knew that Concubine Liu was a peacemaker. She would not tolerate Concubine Liu's behavior and leave herself with trouble.
"The cave is ahead, everyone hurry up." Yao Wu, Yao Liu and several other officers stood on both sides of the road, constantly urging everyone to speed up.
Raindrops as big as soybeans fell.
The sparse raindrops hit people, washing away the dust.
But it cannot cleanse the filth and selfishness in your heart.
No one wanted to be outside in the rain. Everyone knew the consequences of being wet, so they hurried into the cave. Old Madam Gu didn't have time to curse and anxiously urged Gu Beiyang to hurry up.
Su Qi and Gu Beiheng took out umbrellas and put them in their backpacks.
The two of them quickly reached the cave and found a dry place to stay. Su Qi took out the thick quilt from her bag and asked Gu Beiheng to find some dry leaves and straw outside the cave.
It's just raining.
The leaves and grass in the woods outside won't get wet so quickly.
When Gu Beiheng went out, more people came into the cave one after another.
After a while.
Gu Beiheng brought in a large bundle of straw tied with vines, and also brought back some dry tree sticks.
Su Qi found a place near the cave entrance, in a corner where it was dry and breathable. The air was stagnant due to the large number of people inside, and the smell of clothes not being washed for several days was a bit overpowering.
Gu Beiheng spread the thatch on the ground.
Su Qi spread the small quilt on the thatch. Then she whispered, "Mom, take Dabao and Erbao to sit here."
Concubine Liu's eyesight had become a little weak due to her bad mood and frequent crying. She slumped on the straw, not even looking up, and agreed, "Leave this to me."
Su Qi knew that she was in a bad mood, but she didn't care.
No one wants to constantly console others; life is for one's own benefit. She needs to let go of the knot in her heart and move on.
Su Qi and Gu Beiheng, holding umbrellas, went out into the woods with Gu Beiyao, Monkey and Yao Liu to look for some wild vegetables.
Gu Beiting also wanted to go out, but Su Qi asked her to stay and rest while she took Gu Beijing out. A few people from the side branches also went out, and Gu Beihan's two concubines also followed to look for wild fruits.
How can Dabao and Erbao stay still?
The two little guys squatted at the entrance of the cave, watching the rain outside, digging holes with branches in their hands.
"Dabao, let's have a competition." Erbao stuck his butt up high and kept digging holes with a branch in his hand.
Dabao squinted his eyes and smiled, "Okay." Looking around, the little guy threw away the branch in his hand and picked up a small stone not far away to dig a hole.
One edge of the stone is sharp, which makes digging faster.
Seeing this, the other little boys also joined their respective teams, divided into Dabao Team and Erbao Team.
Some people were holding branches to help.
There were also people standing by and giving military commands.
There was a round-headed boy jumping up and down and shouting.
"Erbao, you're about to lose." The round-headed boy, feeling rather annoyed that he was on the wrong side, shouted at the top of his lungs, his face reddening. "Silly Erbao, Dabao is faster at digging the hole with a stone."
Erbao was concentrating on digging a hole, but when he heard Dundun say that Dabao was using stones to dig a hole, he didn't believe it.
When I looked up, I saw a small palm on my forehead.
Too careless.
The boss is a cunning one.
"I want to use some stones to dig a hole too." Erbao jumped up and spun around. "Where are the stones?"
Erbao cried and lay on the big rock at the entrance of the cave, wanting to be picked up.
(⊙﹏⊙).
The whole person is not even as big as a rock. I can’t hold him.
What should I do if my eyebrows are curved downwards?
Erbao frowned like an old man, his eyes fixed on the bearded man leaning against the cave entrance. His little eyes lit up instantly.
"Uncle, lend me your big knife to dig the hole."
Erbao walked over and used his muddy hands to pull the bearded man's trouser legs. "Erbao can't lose."
The others gasped, Erbao was looking for death.
Concubine Liu was so frightened that two of her three souls flew away. She clenched her right fist and pressed it tightly against her chin. Tears streamed down her big eyes.
Erbao couldn't pull the bearded man away, so he raised his head, frowned, and patted his leg again. "Uncle, did you hear that?" he asked in a soft, drawn-out voice.
A look of surprise flashed across the bearded man's frozen face.
Not to mention children, even adults would be scared to death when they saw him.
This little guy is not afraid of him.
He squatted down and looked directly at Erbao.
She pushed him down with one finger: "You little brat, not even as tall as a knife, how can you hold me up?"
Erbao didn’t believe that he couldn’t hold it.
He climbed up using his hands and feet, shaking his little head like a rattle, "Let me hold you. Erbao wants to be your friend."
The hideous scar on the bearded man's face twitched, making him even more intimidated. "Be my friend?"
Erbao nodded, thought for a while and said, "It's okay if it's my brother." Anyway, Dabao wouldn't let him, and having this fierce brother could keep the bad guys at bay.
It seems like a good deal when you think about it this way.
The bearded man's expression was one of disbelief. As expected of Gu Beiheng's offspring, he was always trying to take advantage of him.
"Erbao, right? You want to be my brother?"
Erbao grinned and buried himself in the bearded man's embrace. He put his little hands on his neck and whispered in his ear, "That's right. This is a secret between us brothers. Don't let anyone else know."
His two scowls trembled like a caterpillar, "You are my big brother~." He also made a shushing gesture, and a lot of saliva sprayed out with the shushing.
All of them fell on the bearded man's face.
There was almost an echo in the cave.
You don't let others know.
The bearded man held him on his legs and rubbed him, "You little guy, do you still want to take advantage of me?" He rubbed Erbao until he giggled, then took off the dagger from his waist and threw it to him.
"Since you're not a coward, I'll lend you this dagger."
Erbao felt like he had his brother's support, and he laughed so hard that his throat was exposed.
"Hahaha, Dabao. I will definitely win." Erbao walked differently when he came down, like a general reviewing his troops.
He came to the pit, holding a dagger, and started digging the pit with his butt sticking out.
Aunt Liu wanted to come over to stop Erbao, but the cold look from the bearded man frightened her so much that she hid in the corner, quietly looking up at Gu Wushen.
…
Su Qi and Gu Beiheng had to find some edible wild vegetables before dark. Actually, there were some in the space, and Gu Beiheng's uncle also sent two kilograms of polished rice and two kilograms of flour along with the iron pot.
The two of them no longer need to come to the woods to look for wild vegetables.
Su Qi wanted to go to the woods to take a look and get some fresh air, so Gu Beiheng naturally accompanied her.
Everyone was scattered around looking for wild vegetables, and there was not even a wild rabbit in the woods.
It seems there is no hope of hunting.
"Qiqi, will the next journey be difficult?" Gu Beiheng thought of something and couldn't help but speak.
Su Qi squatted down, picked up the dirt and smelled it. "Hmm, I'm afraid it will rain heavily from now on. I'll get you another pair of shoes tomorrow, but where are your mother's?"
Speaking of Aunt Liu, Su Qi still hesitated.
She is not someone you can trust.
"I'll find a way to make a pair of clogs for her to wear." Gu Beiheng said after thinking for a moment.
"That's not necessary. I have clogs here." Su Qi was extremely glad at this moment that she had collected everything. There were quite a few clogs in the room next to the small warehouse in the kitchen of the villa.
I think it was prepared by the workers.
There are also many new shoes that no one has worn.
Su Qi frowned as he looked at the forest, and finally couldn't help but take out the sweet potato vines from the space and planted them in the soil separately.
Gu Beiheng didn't know what she was going to do, but when he saw Su Qi doing this, he followed her and planted the sweet potato seedlings.
"Qiqi, what are you doing?"
"I'm planting some sweet potato seedlings here. If people fleeing famine come here in the future, maybe these can save their lives." Perhaps because he comes from modern times, Su Qi still hopes to do what he can when facing natural disasters.
Gu Beiheng was originally a soldier.
He is willing to help others as long as it does not affect his own family.
The two of them planted a lot of sweet potato seedlings in this forest.
Before Su Qi and Gu Beiheng left, they scattered another handful of radish seeds.
