Shen Zhaozhao glanced at Yang.
After going through so much trouble, her mother-in-law finally came up with a serious suggestion that was worth referring to.
Guo disagreed, "Mom, you worry too much. Don't they claim to be of high moral character? They think we are criminals and look down on us."
"You are a person of high moral character, why would you do such petty thefts?"
Yang pursed her lips, wanted to say something, but swallowed it back.
That's all.
Whatever she said was wrong anyway.
She has three capable daughters-in-law, so it is not her turn as the mother-in-law to worry about household affairs.
Yang was about to turn around and leave without caring about the matter, but she heard Shen Zhaozhao say:
"Second sister-in-law, mother is right."
Yang looked at Shen Zhaozhao in surprise. Why did her third daughter-in-law, who was as capable of predicting the future as a fortune teller, speak for her today?
Shen Zhaozhao smiled and said, "As the saying goes, you should not have the intention to harm others, but you must be on guard against others!"
Guo nodded, "Yes, it's better to be prepared than to lose it for real."
Lin smiled and looked at Yang. "Mother gave a good suggestion today, which the daughters-in-law did not expect. I hope mother will teach me more in the future."
Yang's face turned a little red.
He said "hmm" and took Zhan Zhiyao away.
"Mom, all three sisters-in-law are good." Zhan Zhiyao did not forget to add.
Yang felt a little uncomfortable and snorted, "I didn't say they were bad."
Zhan Zhiyao laughed and took Yang's arm, "Mother is the most righteous."
Yang felt so comfortable after being coaxed that she suddenly realized that her master was not ignoring her words, nor was he looking down on her.
But before, what she said was too unpleasant.
"I'll put these three bundles on the donkey cart," Shen Zhaozhao picked up three bundles full of dry food and put them on the donkey cart.
On the donkey cart, the two disabled patients, Zhan Nanxing and Jiang Hu, were once again leaning side by side on their luggage.
Seeing her coming, everyone greeted her.
When the big Maozi saw Shen Zhaozhao coming over, he howled happily a few times.
Shen Zhaozhao smiled and placed the three bulging bags in Zhan Nanxing's arms, then reached out and touched the big hairy donkey's head:
"My dear, this is a few days' worth of food, please take good care of it!"
Zhan Nanxing, holding the bag, nodded in agreement.
The big Maozi also rubbed his head against her palm.
With the donkey cart, Zhan Jiaji traveled light and was at the front of the team just after leaving the town.
Sure enough, it only took a day's walk, and at dusk, Shen Zhaozhao felt that the scene in front of him suddenly became clear.
The golden sunset sank into the horizon, and the boundless prairie came into view.
It is already late autumn and the grassland is golden.
Shen Zhaozhao was admiring the sunset and the beautiful scenery of the grassland when he heard the officers calling on everyone to search for dry branches and weeds for fire.
"There may be wild beasts at night, and wild beasts are afraid of fire, so everyone hurry up!"
Zhao Xiaosan and his men shouted while not daring to sit idle, and spread out to search for flammable materials.
Shen Zhaozhao also went.
She looked around. This area had already entered the grassland, and dry branches were hard to find. After searching for a long time, she could only pull up a bunch of weeds.
Zhan Zhiyao has already lit the fire.
Shen Zhaozhao put down the pile of weeds in his arms, and saw that Guo and Lin did the same, both carrying a bundle of weeds back.
"That won't work. These grasses won't burn well." Huang Juan is an experienced person. "We must find some wood. Otherwise, these grasses will burn out in the middle of the night."
"What else can I say? My sister-in-law and I walked for a long way and didn't see a single tree," said Mrs. Guo, also worried.
"I'll go ask the officer." Shen Zhaozhao thought that Jiang Hu and his men often took this route and should know the tricks, so he went to the donkey cart.
When Jiang Hu heard this, he looked up and saw that the Zhan family’s bonfire was lit, and he became anxious.
"What's the trick?"
"The key is to hurry up and pull up as much grass as possible before it gets completely dark!"
"Hi!"
"Look at you guys, you can still see, why are you so angry? Isn't this a waste!"
Shen Zhaozhao blinked and looked around, only to find that Zhan Zhiyao had lit the fire too early.
It seems that apart from the Zhan family, only the Chen family is preparing for the fire.
The Cao family and the volunteers were still running back and forth desperately, trying to prepare more fuel.
"Tsk, this San is really something, he was so busy pulling weeds that he didn't explain it clearly to you." Jiang Hu was a little annoyed.
Spending the night on the prairie, everyone felt united.
If the fire here at the Zhan family is put out, it might attract wild beasts, and the other families will also be under great pressure.
Jiang Hu stretched his neck and wanted to yell to the Chen family to stop, but as soon as he said the word "Chen", his wound moved and he grimaced in pain.
"The Chen family!" Shen Zhaozhao saw that things were getting serious, and hurriedly shouted: "I told you to stop the fire first, and prepare more grass in case there is not enough fuel!"
When Chen Jun heard this, he immediately stopped his father's behavior and ran over quickly.
Shen Zhaozhao didn't have time to explain to him, "Hurry up and prepare the grass."
"Hey," Chen Jun nodded hurriedly, and was just bowing to thank Shen Zhaozhao for the reminder, when he turned around and saw that the fire in the Zhan family had been lit.
Shen Zhaozhao didn't care about him and was rushing back when he heard some movement behind him, and then Jiang Hu's voice came.
"Third Young Master, don't try to be so stubborn!"
Shen Zhaozhao turned around hurriedly and saw Zhan Nanxing struggling to get down to the ground, "What are you doing?"
Zhan Nanxing raised his eyes and said, "I'll help you pull some grass. Zhaozhao, you should also pay attention to whether there is any cow dung left over from grazing. It can also be ignited."
"Don't."
Shen Zhaozhao hurried over to stop him and pushed the dog back onto the donkey cart.
"Yes, Third Young Master, your legs and feet should not cause trouble," Jiang Hu also helped, pointing to the sky, "Look at the sky, don't cause trouble for your wife."
The speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it seriously.
Zhan Nanxing bit her lip and her face turned pale.
The big hands held tightly onto the donkey cart beneath him.
Shen Zhaozhao didn't dare to delay any longer, so he turned around and left quickly.
At the Zhan family's side, Chen Jun had already rushed over to remind them to put out the fire quickly and prepare more grass.
Zhan Zhiyao was almost crying.
"It's all my fault. I didn't know anything. I thought everyone was going to pull weeds, so I just made a fire..."
"Sister Yao, don't be anxious," Shen Zhaozhao looked at the sky. After just a short while, the sun had already completely fallen below the horizon.
Night is about to fall.
The other families who were going to prepare fuel also gradually quickened their pace, hoping to bring back more hay before it got completely dark.
Looking around, including the servants and volunteers, it was indeed the Zhan family that was the least prepared.
"Let's pull some grass nearby first," Shen Zhaozhao arranged for the Zhan family to take action first.
All of them dispersed.
Shen Zhaozhao also found an unnoticed place and pretended to bend down to pull out the weeds, but actually let his consciousness enter the space.
