Chapter 49: Things will work out when the time comes
Xu Wuyan advised Lin Mo not to think about it.
After they had eaten, the escort came soon to urge them to get up and continue their journey.
The death of a child will not affect the team's progress.
The Zhou family originally wanted to bury the child's body directly.
But Zhao Tong held the child tightly, and no matter how you beat or scolded her, no one could take the child away from her arms.
When she was in a hurry, she opened her mouth and bit people.
Many people in the Zhou family were bitten by her accidentally.
In addition, the escort came to urge them to set off, so the Zhou family was too lazy to pay attention to her and let her hug him if she wanted.
So, when they set off, Zhao Tong held the child's body and stumbled behind.
Many people think she is unlucky and keep their distance from her.
So, Zhao Tong walked alone at the back.
Xiao Liuzi felt sorry for her and didn't have the heart to hit her. He just urged her to hurry up and catch up.
Lin Mo sat in the carriage, looked back at Zhao Tong who was at the end of the team, and frowned even more tightly.
"Don't look." Xu Wuyan pulled her back.
Looking at her seriously:
"It's not your fault, don't blame yourself."
His wife suffered an unprovoked disaster.
It's like when disaster strikes while you're sitting at home.
"You said it wasn't my fault, why would I blame myself?" Lin Mo shook his head:
“I just think about the long road ahead and how much is already going on.
So many things are waiting for us next."
Lin Mo has a headache.
My rebirth has changed a lot of things.
Like the death of Zhao Tong’s child, that child also died in his previous life.
But he died of starvation.
And he didn't die so quickly. He starved to death after walking for almost two months.
But now he is drowned.
So, some things have changed, but the ending remains the same.
She is now a little worried about the fate of her mother and her brother, who will not change like this child.
"Things will work out in the end. There's no point worrying now." Xu Wuyan sighed.
"Everything is in our hands. You just worry too much."
Lin Mo was stunned for a moment and nodded.
Then the two of them chatted casually.
During the evening rest.
As soon as she got off the carriage, Lin Shuo mysteriously pulled her aside.
"Sister!" He glanced around nervously, and after making sure no one was looking at him, he looked at Lin Mo excitedly:
"Sister, I, I seem to have suddenly become stronger, look."
After saying that, he picked up a small branch beside him and exerted force with one hand.
Click.
He broke the branch easily.
This was not enough, he picked up another tree trunk as thick as a baby's arm, and with a force of both hands, he easily broke the trunk.
"I see."
Seeing that he was about to pick up a stone to test it on herself, Lin Mo quickly stopped him.
A dry cough:
"Maybe our ancestors had this ability, so now that they've been forced into exile, it's coming out."
"Really?" Lin Shuo scratched his head. Why did he feel that this explanation was so far-fetched?
"Of course you can't doubt me, your sister." Lin Mo said seriously:
"Also, you have to keep this a secret and don't let anyone know, understand?"
"Okay." Lin Shuo nodded.
He obeyed his sister's words unconditionally.
"Okay, go in." Lin Mo was satisfied.
When he was about to go in, he saw Zhao Tong rushing out crying, and in front of him there was a man running holding something that looked like a human.
"Give it back to me, give the child back to me!"
"Zhou Laosan, give the child back to me."
…
Zhao Tong's voice was shrill and ferocious.
But not long after she chased out, two sturdy-looking old women rushed out from inside.
After they caught up, they each grabbed Zhao Tong:
"Zhao Tong, stop making trouble. Your son is dead. Just let him rest in peace."
"That's right, you went in with a corpse in your arms, it's really disgusting."
…
"Let me go, I want my son, let me go." Zhao Tong screamed and struggled angrily.
Just then, a young man came out.
With a snap.
He slapped Zhao Tong on the face, "Zhao Tong, have you made enough trouble?
The son is dead; he is dead.
If you keep holding his body, will he come back to life?"
Zhao Tong was stunned by the slap.
Soon, she came to her senses, her face ferocious, and she roared at him angrily:
"Zhou Yuan, you bastard.
That's our son, and you can actually say such things? You are a heartless person."
"It's not like I only have one son," Zhou Yuan muttered dissatisfiedly:
"Besides, who told you not to take good care of him? Who do you blame?"
"Ahhhh!" Zhao Tong screamed:
"Yes, you have many sons, but I only have this one son.
Zhou Yuan, you are not a human being, you are not a human being."
Zhou Yuan was impatient and stuffed a rag into her mouth, then tied her up with a rope while cursing.
…
Lin Mo took Lin Shuo and walked past the Zhou family with an expressionless face and went inside.
She turned a blind eye to the Zhou family's farce.
She would never do anything that would bring trouble to herself.
"Sister!" Lin Shuo chased after her.
Lin Mo immediately understood the reluctance in Lin Shuo's eyes and shook her head:
“Don’t meddle in other people’s business.
This is someone else's family affair. If you interfere, you'll end up in trouble for both sides, understand?"
Moreover, there is a possibility that Zhao Tong will resent him again.
Zhao Tong...is just a lunatic.
She has not forgotten what Zhao Tong did after her son's death in her previous life.
The Zhou family almost died because of her revenge.
Lin Shuo was stunned for a moment and nodded.
"Um!"
This night passed peacefully.
Except for Zhao Tong who was tied up and whimpering outside, everything else was normal.
The next day.
Everyone continued on their way with a worried look on their faces, and many of them rubbed their stomachs from time to time.
And Zhao Tong, after making a fuss all night, finally quieted down today.
She no longer clamored for her son, as if she had accepted her fate.
The morale of everyone in the team was lower than before.
There's no way. I found very little to eat last night.
After being hungry all night and not eating anything in the morning, how many people have the strength to continue on their journey with an empty stomach?
Lin Mo remained silent.
In the previous life, if I came here and went to look for food, the bailiff would bring back some food.
And it was because of these foods that her mother and brother died here.
In her previous life, when she came here, she was sick.
Her mother and brother went to grab something to eat for her, but were eventually used as scapegoats by the Shen family and beaten to death.
Lin Mo couldn't help but clench his hands into fists.
Will these things happen again in this life?
Lin Mo wasn't sure.
Because she had something on her mind, she looked around from time to time.
Lin Mo breathed a sigh of relief when he didn't see anyone coming on horseback.
Her nervousness was transmitted to Lin Shuo.
"Sister," Lin Shuo looked at Lin Mo nervously:
"Is something serious going to happen?"
Lin Mo was stunned for a moment and shook his head.
Thinking of her past life, her eyes dimmed and she stared at Lin Shuo seriously:
"Lin Shuo, promise me, no matter what happens next, don't join in the fun, okay? And don't let mom join in the fun either. Stay as far away from crowded places as possible."
Although Lin Shuo was puzzled, he nodded seriously.
Lin Mo breathed a sigh of relief. They had appeared at this time in his previous life.
If they don't show up now, things must have changed and they may not be able to make it back today.
She just needs to look after her brother and her mother for the next two days.
Just get through these two days first.
By the time the lunch break came, the escort still hadn't returned, and Lin Mo finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Because there is not much food left, and it will take another four days to get out of here.
Lin Mo thought about it and decided to go for a walk under the pretext of looking for food, and then find a chance to take some food out of the space.
Before leaving, Lin Mo repeatedly instructed Lin Shuo. After getting his promise, Lin Mo felt at ease to leave with Xu Wuyan and the others to find something to eat.
But life is full of coincidences.
She had just left to buy food when the escort came back.
Two escorts on horseback came back, each carrying two bags of steamed buns.
Knowing that there was food to eat, the people who stayed behind screamed with excitement.
After the escort got off his horse, he took off the steamed buns and put them on the ground.
Before they could even speak, the starving people rushed forward, pushed the others aside, and started snatching food.
Liu Ying watched this scene and also became eager to do something.
"Son, let's go grab a few too.
Now that there's food, your sister doesn't have to go around looking for food. We can help her share the pressure."
Lin Shuo was moved.
But when he saw the crowded crowd in front, his face darkened and said, "Sister said I can't join in the fun."
He quickly reached out and grabbed his mother who was about to move forward:
"Mom, I can't go."
"Son, what do you mean?" Liu Ying frowned, a little anxious:
"Let me go quickly. If you don't go now, all the steamed buns will be snatched away."
"I can't go!" Lin Shuo insisted.
At the same time, he looked at Nanny Qin and the others, "Nanny Qin, you can't go either."
Nanny Qin and Nanny Yun looked at each other, not understanding what Lin Shuo meant.
But he was very obedient and didn't go over.
Liu Ying was displeased and her expression became serious:
"Lin Shuo, let go. Those are all food. If you go too late, they will be gone. Let me go quickly. I'll go get those."
After saying that, he reached out and hit Lin Shuo's hand that was holding him.
"Mom, you can't go."
"I told you to let go!"
