Wu Cuihua looked at Song with gratitude. There were many people in her family, but there was only one cart, and she had to carry a lot of things.
After traveling like this all day, I am really tired.
It would be much easier if we had another cart.
Thinking about how her children had followed the villagers in asking for food from the Shen family, she felt extremely guilty.
"Chunzhen, you are so kind to our family." Wu Cuihua's eyes were red with emotion.
Song's name is Song Chunzhen.
"With our relationship, what are we talking about? Let's go back." Song smiled and patted Wu Cuihua, and handed her a bundle.
When she was in the village before, whenever something happened, Wu Cuihua would always speak up for her.
Wu Cuihua pulled one cart back, and the remaining one was given by Old Lady Shen to another family in the village with whom she had a good relationship.
At Mr. Shen Xingwang's place, the second son's wife had just been taught a lesson and didn't dare to say anything.
I could only hide in the team and mutter quietly: "They are really ungrateful. They gave everything to others and didn't even think about their own family."
"That's right. I saw him handing Wu Cuihua a bulging bag. I don't know what good things are in it." The third son's wife stared at Wu Cuihua with envy.
Old man Shen Xingwang's mind was filled with all the slanderous words his sons and daughters-in-law had said in the past few days against his second brother's family. It would be a lie to say that he was not disappointed.
He scolded, "Shut up. You only think about other people's things all day long. When did you become like this? We have harvested all the food from our fields. Although it is a bit tiring to walk outside, when have you ever been hungry? Isn't it all thanks to your second uncle's family that we were able to harvest the food?"
"You also know that you and your second uncle's family are one family. It's fine if you don't help when there's trouble, but you're always the one to stir up trouble!"
The old man was also very angry. He scolded them many times and kept coughing after that.
As a result, his three sons did not feel guilty at all after hearing this.
"It's all thanks to them. Shen Rong is teaching in town. Isn't it natural for him to help the kids at home? Besides, our family is not the only one collecting grain, and Second Uncle's family didn't just talk to our family."
"We have supported you for so long, and we only let you stay at your second uncle's house for two days. You are so biased."
The old man looked at these unfilial descendants angrily and asked, "Don't tell me you didn't know that the two kilograms of grain your wife left for me were moldy and old."
"What's wrong with stale grains? We can still eat them!"
The old man was so angry that his chest felt stuffy. It was okay to eat stale corn, but eating stale corn that had been soaked in water and become moldy could be fatal.
There was once an old man in the village who had no children or grandchildren. He was reluctant to throw away his moldy grain, and ended up losing it the next day.
The second son's wife looked at the old man holding his chest and gasping for breath, and was afraid that he would be angry to death by them and die here.
He quickly said, "Our family can no longer serve you, so you should go with your second uncle."
After saying that, he winked at Shen Daya, asking her to send the old man away.
Many people heard about their farce, and they all looked down on it. At the beginning, the old man's daughters-in-law even said that in order to make the old man live a better life, they left a lot of food for the Shen family.
The result was two pounds of moldy stale grains, but no one intervened.
On the contrary, I think it is better for the old man to stay with Mr. Shen's family than here.
Afraid that the old man was unwilling to leave, Shen Daya planned to pull him back.
But before his hand touched the person, he was stopped by a pair of beautiful hands.
Shen Daya looked up and saw Shen Yuan's half-smile.
"The old man is in poor health. If you do this, people will accuse you of assaulting an elder." Shen Yu'an said coldly, his smile not reaching his eyes.
Shen Daya was startled and said angrily: "Shen Yu'an, what nonsense are you talking about."
Although many people saw how their family treated the old man just now, it would be fine as long as no one said anything.
If she pointed this out to Chen Yu'an so bluntly, she would be criticized for being unfilial and how would she get married in the future?
Shen Yu'an didn't even look at her, and asked the old man obediently: "Grandpa, Grandpa said he was leaving soon, so he asked me to pick you up."
After such a long delay, the sun had already set a little and it wasn't as hot anymore.
The Shen family decided to take advantage of this time to continue their journey.
Logically speaking, the two carts of grain from the Shen family had already been sold, so there was no need for Shen Lizheng to follow them.
As a result, not long after they set off, Chen Lizheng also shouted at the villagers to pack up and follow.
Shen Lizheng's eyes were gloomy, and he was very dissatisfied with what had happened in the past two days.
Not only did he fail to get the food, but he was also embarrassed by the Shen family many times.
But when I think about the big knives in the hands of the Shen family today and the girl Shen Yu'an fighting more than a dozen people alone.
After hesitating for a moment, he followed!
If we follow that girl, maybe we can use their house to protect us when we encounter danger.
The knives had already been through the clear road, so Shen Yu'an didn't let them put them away.
It was the knife in their family's hands that blocked many people's thoughts in the days that followed.
The rest of the journey went smoothly for another two days. On the afternoon of the third day, Shen Rong and his companions finally saw a mountain range.
This should be the nearest mountain range that Shen Rong mentioned. They have used up a lot of water, so it’s just right for them to go into the mountains to see if there is any water source.
"Let's go a little further and find a flatter road. There's no water source. Let's get some water and continue walking."
"Okay!" Zhang's father and son said happily.
If they couldn't find water, they would start to worry about getting lost.
As soon as they smiled, they heard panicked voices.
"Help, there are robbers, help!"
In a short while, several men came running in panic, followed by several robbers holding long knives and looking fierce.
The men also saw the Shen family and the large group behind them, and their eyes lit up.
"Save us, robbers are coming!" As he said that, he rushed behind the Shen family.
The robbers chasing behind were also forced to stop, but when they saw so many "fat sheep" appearing in front of them, they instantly became happy.
"Hahaha brothers, this trip was worth it. We caught a large number of sheep."
"Stop, this is robbery, surrender now."
The robbers pointed their knives at the Shen family members in front of them and the people from Shen Village behind them.
The people in Shenjia Village panicked when they saw the robbers. They squeezed back one by one, hoping that the robbers didn't notice them.
Shen Yu'an counted the number of robbers and found that there were only eight of them in total.
But maybe because he had been robbing all the time, he was still fat and strong during this famine year.
The men from the Shen family and the Zhang family stood in front of their family members with knives, staring at them without showing any weakness.
