She lifted her skirt and said calmly, "Second Aunt, is this for you or is it really for my mother?"
"Of course it's your mother!" She glared at Tong Wen Yao, and her caring tone didn't sound fake. Was she being too suspicious?
She could allow Second Aunt to have her own plans, but she couldn't plan them towards her family! However, it now seemed that Second Aunt's plans were only for outsiders.
"Second Aunt, if you really love my mother, please let her take the car! Otherwise, I'm worried that she won't be able to keep the baby in her belly."
"What!" She looked at me in shock, her tone turning to worry.
"Why didn't your mother tell me? If she had told me, I would have let her take the bus a long time ago!"
Tong Wenyao looked at the people around her. Aunt Cui was indeed attentive and knew how to ask them to stay aside.
"I only found out yesterday when I took your pulse."
"You, when did you learn medical skills?"
"I learned it from reading medical books at home."
Aunt Cui was shocked. She suddenly realized that the person in charge of the eldest house seemed to have changed!
Now that the eldest daughter in her family is in charge, does what her sister-in-law said to her before still count?
Perhaps seeing through her inner thoughts, Tong Wenyao said, "Don't worry, I won't abandon you even when we reach the border."
Her thoughts were exposed in this way, and her face looked a little embarrassed.
"Wen Yao, you know your second uncle is stupid and only knows how to follow military orders, and your brother Bo never takes charge. As a mother, I naturally have to give it more consideration."
"Well, Second Aunt is wrong. Bo Ge'er is a smart man, but you, Second Aunt, have never let him show it."
When Tong Fu heard about herself, she didn't expect her sister to see things so clearly. Her eyes couldn't help but moisten. She knew that she would be recognized one day. Tong Wenyao continued, "Second Aunt, I discussed this with Mother and Bo Ge'er last night, so you can rest assured."
At noon that day, everyone was resting in the forest again, and those who didn't like Qian's mother riding a cart naturally went to the Tong family.
Tong Wen Yao was lighting a fire nearby, planning to go to the woods to see if there was anything to eat. She looked up at the people who came to cause trouble and frowned, even though she knew that they would be jealous and unhappy if she let her mother sit on the food cart.
Aunt Du walked in front and said in an unhappy tone: "Why can your Qian family ride in a cart?"
There were many people following behind her and making a fuss.
"That's right, we're all exiled, so why should she get to sit here?"
"Could it be that he's hooking up with Master Chen?"
After hearing this, Qian's mother's face turned pale. This was going to ruin her reputation!
When Cui's mother heard this, her impatience came out.
"Bullshit! Our eldest sister-in-law is pregnant, how come all of you are pregnant?"
Aunt Du snorted coldly after hearing this, "Why, everyone here has been pregnant before, why is your family the only one who is so delicate!"
I pulled my second aunt and signaled her to stop talking.
"Aunt Du, it cost a lot of money for our family to ride on a cart!" The voice paused.
Tong Wen Yao looked clearly at the people causing trouble one by one. In addition to Aunt Du, there were also Aunt Mo and Mrs. Zhang from the side branch.
She looked at the group of people with a smile.
"Why, if you have money, you can pay for a ride on a cart, and my family won't say a word!"
Aunt Du was still unconvinced, and kept saying, "Everyone knows that exiled prisoners can't ride in cars. Why are you breaking the rules?"
"Aunt Du, that was arranged by Lord Chen out of pity for my mother's pregnancy and her exile. Are you saying this to disobey Lord Chen's orders?"
As soon as the voice fell, their faces turned ugly. Who dared to question Master Chen? Isn't it because they are small and lame that they come to bully them? But who knew that they are not easy to mess with?
Mrs. Zhang tried to appease him, "We misunderstood. We'll take our leave now!"
After they left, Mother Qian looked at Wen Yao and asked anxiously, "Yao'er, I won't sit here tomorrow!"
"Mom, you can sit as usual tomorrow. After this round, I'm afraid they won't bother you anymore."
The exiled prisoners all have the same destination. In addition to their Tong family and branch families, there are many other prisoners. Among those who just came to cause trouble was Aunt Mo. Neither Aunt Zhang nor she belonged to them. Now Aunt Du is mixed up with them, and the people from the branch families don't care. So, are they trying to see if there is any way out for other people besides their family?
"Mom, boil the water first. Second Aunt and I will go into the woods to see if there are any wild vegetables."
When Tong Wenjiang heard this, she also wanted to go, but she stopped her.
Tell him that if those women come to cause trouble again, just call me.
Second uncle and his men took Wen Yao and Tong Bo into the woods to hunt early. This place was not close to a big river, only a very small stream. There were not big fish and shrimps there, so she didn't plan to touch them. She went straight into the woods to see if there were any wild fruits and vegetables.
There were mostly fallen leaves in the forest in autumn, and many birds were chirping. Tong Wen Yao walked into the forest for about ten minutes, and there were many people around picking wild vegetables.
Tong Wen Yao observed it carefully. This wild vegetable is also called hemp vegetable, which has the effect of clearing heat and dampness. However, she wanted to enter the space when no one was around, so she had to avoid the crowd.
"Second Aunt, you pick wild vegetables here. I'll go over there to see if there are any herbs for my mother."
Cui's mother lowered her head and quickly picked wild vegetables. Without looking up, she replied, "Okay, then be careful."
Tong Wen Yao was beating the grass with a stick while observing the surrounding area for medicinal herbs. Suddenly, she saw a bunch of green fruits growing on a tree. She looked closely and found that they were wild dates.
Wild dates are good for replenishing qi and blood, so I picked some to nourish my mother and them. Winter is coming, and every time the sun goes down, it always feels a little cold. She has been climbing trees since she was a child. She can climb up by holding a branch with one hand and pushing hard with her feet.
When she got to the tree, she found some wild dates that had already turned red. She picked them and put them in the basket. Now she had enough space and was not worried about not having enough space. She quickly picked the wild dates with both hands. After a while, the basket was full. She quickly threw them into the basket and picked more.
Seeing that she had picked almost all of them, she climbed down and looked around carefully. She found Sichuan peppercorns, which made her look happy. They are a major seasoning for cooking! You can also add some to fish to remove the fishy smell.
The Sichuan pepper fruits have also become ripe and are bright red. If they hadn't turned red, she probably wouldn't have noticed that there were Sichuan peppers growing here. She can get a small handful of Sichuan peppers by plucking them off. However, she still has to be careful when plucking them because there are small thorns on the edges of the Sichuan pepper leaves.
After installing it, she slipped into the space when no one was around, ate a meal inside, and then slipped out again. Alas, she also wanted to take the supplies inside to feed them, but she was afraid of being exposed! She was afraid that they would mistake her for a monster!
