The Shen family had no idea what Shen Lizheng and the others were planning.
But if they come so close to me like this, they will definitely reveal their true intentions if they have any plans.
If an enemy comes, we will fight him with our soldiers; if a flood comes, we will block it with earth.
But they didn't have that much free time to listen to him talking, and they wanted to travel longer before taking a break.
Old Mrs. Shen's face darkened and she pulled Old Man Shen aside.
"We won't rest. If there's nothing else, we'll just keep on going."
After saying this, without even looking at Shen Lizheng's livid face, he pulled Old Man Shen back to the team and let everyone continue walking.
After walking for a distance, thinking that the people behind them could not hear them talking, the group started talking in mutters.
Wulang and Xiaoliulang walked on either side of Shen Yu'an. Now they admired Shen Yu'an very much and asked him some strange questions from time to time.
But most of them were about fighting, and some were about asking if there were any rare things in Shen Yu'an's "little treasure box".
Xiao Liulang raised his head and asked curiously as he walked, "Sister, doesn't the village head remember to kick us out? Why did he talk to our grandfather just now? He kept talking even though our grandfather didn't want to pay attention to him."
Shen Yu'an lowered his head and said mysteriously, "Who knows what bad ideas he might have, Xiaoliu, don't be fooled by him."
Xiao Liulang also imitated Shen Yuan and whispered: "Don't worry, sister, Xiao Liu is very smart."
The others were amused by the brother and sister, and the atmosphere that had just been made unhappy by Shen Lizheng faded a little.
Because Chen Yun's arm was injured, he was not allowed to drive the ox cart or push the cart.
He walked behind and said, "But it's true. The head of the village has already kicked us out. Given his face-saving personality, why would he lower himself to talk to us?"
When Mrs. Shen heard this, she rolled her eyes at him and looked at him as if he were a fool.
"Why else? If he wasn't planning on targeting our family, I don't believe he's so enthusiastic."
The others nodded in agreement, and felt that this was the truth.
But when I turned around, I saw that the people from Shenjia Village were still following closely behind.
Shen Yu'an frowned. Just now, Shen Lizheng asked Grandpa if he wanted to stop and rest, so it should be time for them to rest.
But the team didn't rest and no one heard any noise in the team.
If they couldn't figure it out, they just stopped thinking about it and walked at a normal pace, not caring about the people behind them.
At this time, the team from Shenjia Village was also muttering to each other in low voices.
But their conversation was clearly not that friendly.
Just now the village head came forward to talk to everyone and everyone was watching. Originally, we thought we could stop and rest together, and take the opportunity to force the Shen family to distribute the food to everyone.
As a result, those people from the Shen family were so shameless that they just left.
So everyone had no choice but to continue walking, eating some dry food on the road, and they didn't dare to stop even though they could hardly lift their feet.
Old Mrs. Wu rolled her eyes and thought she had a good idea. She quickly walked to Shen Lizheng and told him her idea.
"Erdan, why don't you just go and tell them to return to the team? They will surely be grateful and give us the food."
Old Mrs. Wu was very proud and felt that she had come up with a good idea, and that she would be given more when the food was distributed.
Thinking of this, she happily spoke out what was on her mind.
"I have a good idea for you. When you get the food, you must give more to my family."
Shen Lizheng got angry whenever he saw her talking. He didn't know how many things had happened to Old Lady Wu in the team in the past two days.
Whenever something happens, his name is brought up and people are threatened with expulsion from the team, causing everyone to complain and have a bad impression of him.
He also warned her, but this person was shameless and it was useless no matter what he said.
So Shen Lizheng just wants to stay away from her when he sees her now.
But when Shen Lizheng's wife heard what Old Lady Wu said, she was unhappy.
If her husband took the food from Mr. Shen's family, it would be because her family had made the greatest contribution, so why should they give them more food?
After just a few words, the two of them started to disagree with each other and started arguing back and forth.
"Shut up!"
Shen Li's ears were aching from the noise, so he turned around and glared at them.
His eyes were not friendly at all, so the two of them did not dare to argue anymore and just followed him obediently.
But even though the two of them didn't say anything, they couldn't stop others from discussing it.
Some people thought that asking for food was not a good idea and said, "No matter where the food came from, it is in the hands of Mr. Shen's family. Will they give it to us if we ask for it?"
"And you forgot, when someone went to ask for food, that girl put a knife on the person's neck. It was so scary."
Everyone was not too sure. It had been so many days since this happened, and if no one mentioned it, it would have been forgotten.
At this time, Ma pulled Lin Chunyan over and just happened to hear everyone talking about this.
When she heard this, she thought, does this mean you don’t dare to ask for food?
That wouldn't work. Her family didn't have the grain confiscated in the first place, and the Shen family didn't sell any grain to them when they sold it.
Although the 200 kilograms he got from Wang Zhicai was much more than what the other people in the village had, but as they were fleeing the famine there seemed to be no end in sight, this amount of food was not enough.
She said, "Of course they won't give it to us. Mr. Shen's family is the most kindhearted. Seeing that we all have no food to eat, they will definitely be soft-hearted."
"If we give in, the food will become ours."
Lin Chunyan also said, "My mother is right. Think about it, aunts. The Shen family sold that little bit of food to you. We have been walking for so many days to get out of our county. If we go east, it may take a long time. What can we do without food?"
Lin Chunyan said a lot of things, and when she saw the women's faces becoming more and more serious, she felt secretly happy.
She went on to say, "Don't think about anything else, aunts. We have more than 200 people. I don't think they dare to do anything again."
"Besides, if they can't finish the food, it will be a burden to carry with them. Giving the food to us will help them relieve the burden."
The more they listened, the more they felt that this was the case. They soon changed their minds and were convinced by Lin Chunyan's sweet words.
Now they no longer felt tired from walking continuously. Instead, they felt full of energy, as if the road ahead was waving at them.
Several women smiled like flowers, praising Lin Chunyan as they walked: "Oh, you are really a bright-minded girl. If anyone dares to say anything bad about you again, your aunt will be unhappy with him."
Lin Chunyan smiled shyly, but her heart was filled with joy.
Humph, even if she left the team, she would not let Shen Yu'an and the others have an easy time.
She will make them pay the price for ruining her reputation!
