"Mom, give us some water, we have run out of water."
Li Jiao'e walked all day today and drank all the water she had with her.
Last night, her family didn't give her any meat or even any dry food.
She had been hungry all night, and if she hadn't helped to make porridge in the morning, she probably wouldn't have been able to eat a single bite.
She was already hungry and could only drink water to fill her stomach.
Li Jiao'e handed the empty bamboo tube to Shen Yuehua.
Shen Yuehua glanced at her eldest daughter-in-law, and her face darkened.
"This amount of water is for your family of three for one day, and you used it up in just half a day?"
Li Jiao'e didn't feel guilty at all, and said confidently: "Mom, you didn't give me two meals. If I don't drink some water, how can I have the strength to travel?"
"You won't even let me ride in the carriage. I've walked for such a long time and I'm hungry and thirsty. How can I survive without drinking some water?"
...
...
"I've already told you that there's not much water left at home, so we have to use it sparingly. The amount of water I give you is calculated by me. If you want to drink water, wait until tomorrow." Shen Yuehua didn't give in and directly retorted.
Her daughter risked her life to find water resources outside and rushed to the front to kill the enemies for everyone.
I asked my sister-in-law to cook some food, but she kept making excuses and refused to do it. She has no awareness at all.
Do you take it for granted? Do you really think the Su family is a soft persimmon?
"Mom, how can you do this! Are you going to force your daughter-in-law to die? Why am I an eyesore to you?"
"You have never treated us daughters-in-law like this before! It's only since your daughter came back that you've turned a blind eye to me. It must be this bitch who instigated me from behind!"
"She is indeed a troublemaker! She makes the family restless! No wonder the Lin family kicked her out! She is nothing compared to Wanwan!"
Li Jiao'e couldn't get any water, so she broke down and started cursing.
When Su Changan saw his wife and mother arguing, he dragged his tired body over to ask.
"What's going on? Mom, did you bully her again?" Su Changan frowned unhappily, feeling tired.
When will this exhausting life end?
He couldn't hold out for even a day!
Shen Yuehua watched her son blame her without asking why, and the little flame in her heart continued to grow.
"Drag your people away from me, and don't come around and ask for trouble in the future! Get away from me too, you sick bastard."
Su Changan was stunned by the scolding. He didn't expect his mother to scold him like that.
He is a scholar after all. How can mother just not give him face?
There are so many people watching nearby!
"Mom, could you please stop being unreasonable?" Su Changan accused Shen Yuehua in obvious displeasure.
Su Yunhai had just returned from arranging the team when he heard the boss teasing his wife.
He didn't even ask why and kicked the man out.
"You evil creature, how can you talk to your mother like that? You haven't been beaten enough recently, have you?"
"Take your people and get out of here. Don't force me to slap you."
Su Changan didn't expect that his father kicked him again!
He has been kicked twice in the past two days!
What did he do wrong to treat him like this!
Even though he was dissatisfied, he did not dare to talk back to his father. He pulled Li Jiao'e away and found a shaded place to sit down.
Seeing that his elder brother had been plagued by bad luck recently, Su Dingan didn't dare to get close to his parents. He immediately hid far away and fed water and feed the livestock at home.
Old Mrs. Su and her husband and the people from the first and third rooms gathered around the second room.
Old Mrs. Su originally wanted to come over and get close to the second wife, or at least ask for some water for the family and cook a meal for everyone.
She saw the second brother and his wife looking for someone angrily. She was a little timid and didn't dare to go over and make trouble.
When she glanced at the third grandson from the second house, her eyes suddenly lit up.
This third grandson is such a spendthrift!
People had no water to drink, but he still fed so much water to the animals!
It's going to cost her her life!
She immediately picked up the washbasin at home and rushed over, pushing Su Ding'an aside.
He deftly scooped a full basin of water from the wooden barrel, not caring whether it had been drunk by the animals or not, and just gulped down the water wildly.
She hadn't drunk much water for two days, so this sip was so refreshing!
The mule, who was drinking water, was upset when his food was suddenly taken away.
It has never seen people and animals fighting for water!
It's the one it drank!
How uncouth!
Su Dingan was so shocked by this sudden scene that he couldn't recover.
"Milk, that's water for the animals, how can you snatch water from the animals!"
All the supplies at home depend on these animals!
We must not just withhold their food rations!
Otherwise, if these animals are exhausted to death, how will we transport the supplies home?
Can I rely on him to carry it?
He doesn't have that ability and doesn't want to treat himself as an animal!
Su Dingan understood this matter more clearly than his other two brothers.
Therefore, Su Dingan was responsible for the food of the livestock at home and he dared not be negligent at all.
Shen Shuli sat under a tree to rest, feeding herself and Su Yunhai's horses separately.
But her ears were always paying attention to what was happening at home.
She saw all of Old Lady Su's outrageous actions.
She couldn't help but admire that this old lady Su had such a unique style of doing things.
He actually snatched the water that the animals had drunk and showed off.
She deserves to be able to drink the water, she accepts it!
Old Mrs. Su had already carried the washbasin to her eldest son's side.
She showed off to her old man and eldest son with a smug look on her face.
"Look, this is the water I managed to grab. Let's cook some porridge to replenish our water."
"Big brother's wife, what are you still standing there for? Hurry up and light the firewood and cook."
The people from the Su family's eldest branch watched Old Lady Su grabbing water.
Even they didn't expect that this basin of water was obtained in this way.
Everyone was disgusted and couldn't drink it.
But they haven’t had much water for two days, and they were reluctant to waste the water they had finally gotten!
What else can I do! Just bear with it and drink it!
Su Dingan was worried that Old Lady Su would continue to snatch water from his animals, so he was always on high alert when feeding them water.
Su Yunhai and his wife also saw it, but what could they say?
She is his biological mother. Can he go up and stop her from snatching water from his animals?
Then Su Yunhai would probably lose all his face.
Not only did the people in the Su family have no water to drink or cook with, but the people in Taohua Village who escaped halfway also had no water or food.
He stared at Su Yunhai's family and Li Youren's family and swallowed his saliva.
A few shameless ones even tried to ask for water from them, but were all rejected.
Rested there for an hour.
The hottest sun finally subsided a little.
Su Yunhai asked everyone to continue on their journey and try to reach the small town ahead to spend the night before dark.
Zhang Shiwen asked for information along the way and chased after him without taking a rest.
From a distance, he saw a man who was several times larger than a normal person preparing to set off.
"You guys continue on your way, I'll go ahead and see if it's Su Xiucai's family." Zhang Shiwen said to the team and immediately rode his horse to chase after them.
