"Old sister, what are you saying? Juanniang is a daughter of the Li family. How can she be bullied and suffer in silence? Even if Zhaozhao hadn't intervened last night, we wouldn't have let it go. There's no question of implicating anyone. Today is only the third day of our escape from famine. We have a long road ahead. Don't underestimate the Li family just because we are large. We might still need your help later." Old Mrs. Li knew what they would encounter on their escape. Last night's attack was just the appetizer. What lay ahead would likely be much more difficult.
Although Minghui and Minghuang are strong and powerful, they lack flexibility. Juanniang, Yangyang, and Zhaozhao, on the other hand, are thoughtful and perceptive. Only by cooperating with each other can they go further.
To put it bluntly, with food supplies dwindling, the Li family was in dire straits and had no one to look after them, leaving them with no one to rely on but the Lin family.
The two old ladies chatted casually, seemingly without any rhyme or reason, but every word they uttered was actually a gentle reminder. Towards the end, Old Lady Li gave the younger generation a chance to speak, saying, "Take this opportunity to speak your mind. Don't keep things bottled up inside, or you'll cause trouble later."
Li Junsheng felt as if he had been shot in the knee.
"Could you slow down a bit? My brother can't keep up."
"Are you mute? Can't you talk if you can't keep up? Would they urge you to run if you did? All that reading you did has gone to waste. You're throwing a tantrum at your cousin. If it weren't for Zhaozhao last night, would you have been eating so well? Would that villain have been subdued?"
"You petty wretch, how will you ever pass the imperial examinations, become an official, and rid the people of evil?"
"I think you're just bored. After you've rested, set aside half an hour to practice horse stance with your uncle so that you don't lose your balance and fall flat on your face."
Don't let Li Minghuang's usual quiet demeanor fool you; when things get serious, he's incredibly eloquent.
Li Junsheng didn't understand how things had suddenly turned into a denunciation meeting for him when everything was fine just moments ago.
The two families were making a huge fuss. Old Mrs. Lin and Old Mrs. Li looked at each other and smiled, then breathed a sigh of relief. Once the grudges were cleared up, they would be gone.
As the farce came to an end, accompanied by the long chirping of cicadas, the snoring of someone falling asleep began, strangely rhythmic.
Lin Zhaozhao lay in the mule cart, overwhelmed by weariness, as if she could fall asleep the moment she closed her eyes. But because she had something on her mind, she forced herself to stay awake.
To be honest, Lin Zhaozhao has always been vigilant, having lived in the apocalypse for many years. However, she only discovered the attack last night when the thief touched the mule cart. If it were her original body, such a thing would never have happened.
But she is now six months pregnant, and physiological reasons are causing her to be sleepy, which cannot be completely eliminated by human intervention. If we want to solve this problem once and for all, we need to think of a way.
Thinking this, Lin Zhaozhao turned and entered the space.
Upon sensing her presence, Meimei and Xiaoli rushed towards her, begging for their superpowers with their cute and charming antics. Meimei is a little lamb, and Xiaoli is a low-level mutated cherry.
Lin Zhaozhao fed the superpower and looked around the space. Everything was in good order and harmonious. Trading a superpower for an all-around little housekeeper was not a bad deal.
