Chapter 25 Development Space
When the Su family heard this, they looked at those people with mixed feelings.
Their family ended up in this situation because they were implicated by the wealthy Su family. How could they not feel resentful?
But now that he saw the other person's miserable appearance with his own eyes, he didn't know how to release the resentment, and it felt like a thorn in his throat.
Not cruel enough after all.
Old Lady Su turned her head away and said, "Let's find a place to stay first. Don't stand here and get in the way of the officers. And don't try to get close to them. We may recognize them, but they may not recognize us."
Su Da and Su Er immediately pulled the wooden cart and retreated quickly with their family before the yamen runners noticed them.
The whip in the yamen runner's hand was blind. Although they were tired and exhausted from the journey, at least they were not actually injured. There was no need for them to be whipped at the last moment. What's more, except for the two young and strong brothers, the rest of the family were old, weak, women and children. How could they withstand the beating?
As for the noble Su family and the main branch, just get out of here.
Now we are all exiles, so let’s not talk about status.
"Dad, Mom, there are more than a dozen households at the foot of the mountain, so it should be inhabited. I see there are still a lot of vacant land around. Let's find a place nearby to settle down temporarily? We can find a way to build a house tomorrow morning." Su Da pointed to a thatched hut at the foot of Tubei Mountain and suggested.
Mrs. Su and Mr. Su looked at each other and nodded. "This is the only way. When you choose a place, stay as far away from those houses as possible. Don't get too close. We're new here and don't know who lives there. It's better to stay away for now."
Be careful and cautious to live longer.
The whole family has been traveling around for a while and has learned a lot.
After discussing it, the family finally chose a corner at the foot of the mountain, a little further away from the thatched hut, to settle down.
I thought I could sneak along the road quietly without attracting anyone's attention, but I didn't expect that I would still attract people's attention, and many people came out to inquire about it.
When he saw that the people coming were a group of beggars, and then saw that the wooden cart was empty except for a few kids, he immediately lost interest and turned around to close the door.
The Su family, "..."
The human nature here can be summed up in two words: indifference.
"If there is something in our car, I guess those people will steal it." Su Er smacked his lips.
Su Da, "We haven't eaten anything for most of the day. We're so exhausted. Should we get something to eat now?"
"No matter how careful you are, you can't starve yourself to death. Eat!" Su Er rubbed his hands, licked his face and approached Old Lady Su, "Mom, Tianbao... give me something to eat? Only when you are full can you have the strength to work!"
Liu Yuelan, He Daxiang and Su Xiuer, the three women, looked at him with such worthless appearance that they wanted to laugh but felt bitter.
It is extremely embarrassing for a group of adults to rely on a baby who is still in swaddling clothes.
But given the current situation at home, they really have no choice.
The three kids on the wooden cart were so hungry that they curled up with their hands on their stomachs. They knew there was not much food at home, but despite their young age, they managed to hold back their tears and make a fuss all the way.
Don’t you feel sad?
The corners of Mrs. Su's lips twitched, and she looked at Tianbao with her vicissitudes eyes, "Bao..."
Tianbao raised his little hand and touched the corner of the old woman's bitter mouth, "Ah."
The empty bags on the wooden cart bulged.
Su Da, who had been staring at the bag since the morning, grinned immediately, "Yuelan, Daxiang, Xiu'er! Go to the slope behind and get some hay. Lao Er, build a stove!"
"Okay!"
The family's eyes were slightly wet, and they responded crisply.
Soon, away from the corner of the house, with their backs to the wind, the Su family sat around the fire, warming themselves by the fire and chatting, while secretly eating pears to fill their stomachs and waiting for the grilled fish buried under the fire to be cooked.
Su An and the other two little kids followed their parents' instructions and ate quietly without making any noise.
My grandparents said that if anyone found out they had fruit to eat, they would come and steal it.
But we can’t let anyone snatch it away. They are all hungry and their eyes are full of stars.
"I don't have to keep traveling, and I feel much more at ease," Old Man Su sighed as he looked around in the dim light. "Let's live here from now on, cultivate the land, and if the family works together, we can definitely make a living."
"Everything is difficult at the beginning. Let's build our shelter tomorrow. Spring will arrive in about ten days. Then we can go to the supervision office and find out where to get farm tools and seeds." Old Lady Su continued, "And these families around here must have been exiled here before us and have already put down roots. We should take the initiative to interact with them. Once we get to know them, we can find out a lot."
Tianbao is young, so she doesn’t need to worry about these things, and she can’t worry about them, so she went back into the space.
She hasn't forgotten that there are wild animals in the mountains.
There was a large mountain range shrouded in clouds and mist beside her space fields. Tianbao had only regarded it as a background before, but now she wanted to explore it.
My grandparents have been eating fish for a long time. No matter how delicious something is, you will get tired of it if you eat too much.
Of course it would be better if there were more dishes.
As Tianbao approached, the clouds covering the mountains automatically dispersed to both sides, revealing their true appearance bit by bit.
Near the foot of the mountain, behind the hazy white fog, there was a large fruit forest.
The branches were filled with all kinds of fruits, including orange-red tangerines, bright red apples, and many other fruits that Tianbao didn't recognize and had never seen before.
As you go further in, the trees become denser and denser, with many towering ancient trees reaching into the clouds, and vines and thorns growing underneath.
When Tianbao was almost getting impatient, he finally saw the beast.
It has triangular pointed ears, fierce green eyes, a coat of gray and white fur, sharp claws on its feet, and a furry tail behind its butt.
Their eyes met, and Tianbao's eyebrows slowly wrinkled. He tilted his head and thought hard for a moment, then his eyes lit up, "I recognize you, you're a dog!"
"dog":……
The dog's body stiffened for a moment, its bared fangs slowly retracted, the fierce light in its eyes faded, and the tail hanging behind its butt slowly and awkwardly rose up.
Then, he shook it at Tianbao.
"I'm not mistaken, you really are a dog! It seems like dog meat is edible!"
The "dog's" tail suddenly froze in mid-air.
Tian Bao sighed in disappointment again and waved her little hand, "You look too fierce and too big, it's not easy to roast, I don't want you."
"Woo!" The dog wagged its tail again and disappeared into the jungle.
It scared the dog to death!
Tian Bao had no idea that he had frightened the king of the jungle. Seeing the beast, his patience was restored. He walked deeper into the jungle while muttering, "I can eat rabbits and pheasants... I need to find rabbits and chickens."
As soon as she finished speaking, there was a rustling sound in the thorny bushes at her feet, and soon, the hare and pheasant that Tianbao definitely knew appeared in front of her.
Gray rabbits and white rabbits, each one has beautiful fur and plump meat.
The pheasant has beautiful feathers, bright red combs, and looks majestic and proud.
Tianbao blinked his eyes, looked at the little animals for a while, and his little mouth opened to the sides with joy.
She reached out and easily caught the pheasant, and with her other hand she grabbed a fat rabbit, "That's it for you!"
