"No, you all went to bed very late last night, but Xingxing went to bed very early and slept until dawn. If a bad guy really broke in, Xingxing would be a burden to Mom and my brothers if she was still sleeping."
So why is Xingxing angry with herself? Why can't she hold back every time? Is she born in the Year of the Pig?
"Star needs to eat more so she can grow up quickly. When she grows up, she can protect everyone and fight the refugees with everyone." Although she usually eats quite a lot, she ate an extra bowl today, making her little belly even rounder.
"Yes, that's right. You're still young and your stamina isn't up to par, so you fall asleep without being able to control yourself. When you grow up, you'll definitely be stronger than your older brothers, so you need to eat more."
Looking at her chubby, rosy-cheeked daughter, Zhao Guihua was overjoyed. Children need to eat a lot and be well-fed to grow up healthy and chubby.
After breakfast, Zhao Guihua and Zhou Erfu killed the wild rabbits together, stewed two of them, and smoked the others into jerky.
"Dafu, you and Sifu should first send your father a bamboo tube of meat porridge, and at noon send him a stewed wild rabbit, and keep one at home," Zhao Guihua said.
"Mom, is Dad going to eat a whole rabbit by himself?" Zhou Erfu felt a pang of sadness. He had a big appetite and wanted to eat a whole rabbit by himself, but his mother wouldn't allow it.
Zhao Guihua glared at her second son. How could she not know what this kid was thinking?
“The village chief and the others are with us too. When we send food over, we’ll definitely have to share some with the others. Who knows when the refugees will arrive? We have to make sure your dad is well-fed so he’ll have more strength when the fighting starts.”
Zhou Erfu was silent, so he quickly ran to deliver the food.
Two days passed, and Yegou Village was still not attacked by refugees. It was unusually calm, and because it was too calm, the village chief became increasingly uneasy.
I'm afraid those so-called refugees are plotting something big, and we don't know if Yegou Village will be able to withstand it.
That night, Xingxing had just fallen asleep when she suddenly opened her eyes and sat up abruptly, startling Zhao Guihua.
"What's wrong, honey? Did you have a nightmare?" She hugged the little girl and gently patted her back.
In the darkness, Xingxing frowned. Little Rou pointed towards the village entrance and said, "Many people with tattered clothes and covered in dirt are running towards our village. They have knives in their hands. They will shoot rockets to burn down the houses in our village and kill the villagers with knives. Many old men, old women and children have died. It's so scary."
After saying that, Xingxing hugged Zhao Guihua tightly and buried her face in her arms, her little voice muffled, "Mom, there are so many bad people, it's so scary, there's so much blood."
Zhao Guihua was jolted awake, realizing that this scene was probably about to unfold. She couldn't just sit and wait to die; she had to go and inform the other villagers.
The people of Yegou Village had finally settled down, how could they be massacred? This absolutely cannot be allowed to happen. Since the stars foresaw it in advance, it means there is still time.
