This time, no matter how dumb Wang Tou was, he could understand what was going on.
So, just as Jiang Hu thought, Huaer teamed up with her relative to deceive him in order to eat the Zhan family's fried buns.
One pretended to faint, the other pretended to cry.
“Pah—”
Wang Tou slapped himself in the face, glanced at Hua'er coldly in front of her shocked gaze, and turned away.
Even at his age, he was still cheated by a young girl.
Wang Tou thought of how he had been deceived by Hua'er's tears several times before, so he stepped in and asked Jiang Hu to help.
He completely lost face in front of his brothers!
Wang went back to the place where the escorts rested, sat down beside the campfire angrily, and looked at the dancing flames. Thinking that he would have to face Jiang Hu's teasing tomorrow, he hated it so much that he wanted to peel off his face and hide it.
On the volunteer side, Hua'er's face was flushed with anger under the light of the fire.
He looked at his cousin in the clan with great regret.
She was eating the steamed bun in big mouthfuls. After two bites, she finished the whole steamed bun. She kept saying good things about her and even bit her back.
As a result, the relationship between her and Wang Tou, which she had carefully cultivated along the way, was ruined.
How could she ask Wang Tou to take good care of the volunteers on the way to Mobei?
"Flower," came the old voice, and the old man raised his loose eyelids, glanced at her, and waved.
Huaer glared at her cousin who was licking his teeth with great satisfaction, then stood up and walked over.
"Grandfather, I'm afraid the king will take better care of us in the future," Huaer said angrily, "My cousin is such a jerk. He only cares about the little white bun in front of him. He shouldn't think about how we can live well in the future."
The old man snorted, "He is your elder after all. It is not right for a younger person to say that an elder is right."
"Besides, were you the one who wanted to eat the steamed bun first?"
"You blame your uncle for ruining your show."
Huaer pursed her lips and didn't say much.
"Forget it, let's take it one step at a time," the old man said, and then glanced at his nephew and sighed, "Who asked your father to give birth to a girl? She has to endure being bullied."
Hua'er said nothing, hugged her knees, warmed herself by the fire, and looked in the direction of the Zhan family.
She dared not talk back, after all, he was her grandfather.
But she was willing to accept it in her heart. Why should she deserve to be bullied just because she had no brothers?
All the men in the Zhan family died, leaving only a disabled person. The family is ruled by women, so why haven't we seen the Zhan family being bullied?
She thought of the officers' protection of the Zhan family, and the jealousy in her heart crawled darkly like a poisonous snake.
Although she was a prisoner, she was treated like a treasure by the police. On the other hand, she, a girl from a good family, was bullied by her clansmen. The relationship she had painstakingly built with the escort leader was as fragile as bubbles.
No matter how nice someone was to her before, they could become so cold to her the next moment.
She was convinced!
They were all women, and even the women of the Zhan family had even purer identities than her, so why did they have such a good life?
The fire was reflected in my eyes, burning fiercely.
Several families lived close to each other and lived in peace until the second half of the night. The people on duty at night changed into two shifts, and it seemed that the last shift could hold out for another two hours before dawn.
At the Zhan family, Zhan Zhiyao is on duty as the last shift.
She slept well in the first half of the night, and was afraid that someone would come to do something bad again, so she stared around with wide eyes while on duty, not daring to relax for a moment.
Suddenly, Zhan Zhiyao raised his hand and touched his nose.
There are some water stains on my hands.
She frowned and was looking up at the dark sky when her face felt cold and another drop of water fell on it.
Zhan Zhiyao jumped up with a bang.
"Is it raining?" Her first reaction was to raise her hand to shield the bonfire from the rain, but the flames burned her outstretched hand and she realized that she had done something stupid.
He quickly withdrew his hand.
I looked around with some worry, but the people from the other families didn't seem to notice anything wrong.
Zhan Zhiyao was too sure that the rain would be so heavy or just a few drops of water. Seeing that everyone in the family was sleeping soundly, he didn't want to disturb them.
She stamped her feet and whispered to the nearby Cao family, "Do you feel the rain?"
The Cao family was on duty with a young man who was dozing off. He yawned and said, "No, it's a clear and crisp autumn day. How could it rain?"
"Little girl, you are hallucinating because of sleepiness. It's nothing. I am just pretending to be on duty."
After saying that, he added a large handful of hay to the campfire, closed his eyes and continued to doze off in the warmth of the fire.
Zhan Zhiyao actually felt that it was just an illusion. She actually wiped a drop of water from her face.
Suddenly, my face felt cold again.
Zhan Zhiyao looked up at 꽭.
Soon, the second raindrop fell directly into her eyes.
Zhan Zhiyao didn't dare to delay any longer, and ran to Shen Zhaozhao on tiptoe, "Sister-in-law?"
Shen Zhaozhao was originally asleep when he woke up, suddenly opened his eyes, stood up and asked, "What's wrong?"
Zhan Zhiyao pointed at the night sky, looking troubled. "It seems to have started to rain. Several drops fell on my face. I was afraid that it would suddenly get bigger and we would be caught off guard. So I woke you up first to check on the situation."
Shen Zhaozhao looked up, and two drops of rain fell on his face, feeling cool.
Shen Zhaozhao's face changed. The scene in her dream was too horrifying. She remembered the scene of herself being bitten to death by wolves and the old man who did it, but ignored the reason why the wolves suddenly attacked them.
It was indeed raining at that time.
The tragedy happened because the heavy rain extinguished all the campfires, and without the flames that the wolves were afraid of, the tragedy occurred.
"Ayao, you did a great job." Shen Zhaozhao simply tied her long hair behind her head with a hair tie, and told her clearly: "Hurry up and call everyone. All of our family members should check their sleeve arrows and crossbows and be prepared for wild beasts at any time."
Zhan Zhiyao's face turned pale.
She believed her sister-in-law. Since her sister-in-law had said so, danger might come soon.
"I'll arrange for two people to hold one corner each," Shen Zhaozhao handed the rainproof cloth to Zhan Zhiyao, "I'm going to wake up the other families."
Shen Zhaozhao looked at Zhan Zhiyao, who was pale, and saw that she was indeed shocked. He slowed down his tone, raised his hand and patted her, "Sister Yao, you can do it."
Zhan Zhiyao pursed her dry lips and nodded heavily.
Shen Zhaozhao turned around and walked into the darkness.
She didn't waste any time and went to wake up the dozing young man from the Cao family. "Wake up Cao Ya, it's going to rain soon."
"Ah?" The young man was still conscious and looked at Shen Zhaozhao blankly, "Is it possible?"
"It's raining a lot this autumn..."
"Cao Ya!" Shen Zhaozhao was too lazy to talk nonsense with him and shouted loudly. There were too many members of the Cao family and she couldn't tell who was who one by one.
This shout woke up many people, and they kept complaining.
"Who is it? It's not light yet."
"I just fell asleep. It was the Zhan family's daughter-in-law who was looking for trouble..."
"Just go find Cao Ya, why are you shouting so loudly?"
Amidst the complaints, Cao Ya stood up. Although he had just woken up, his eyes were clear. He walked around a few people and came over:
"What's wrong?"
