Su Man said with a smile, "Pingping and I ran fast, and there were not many bandits chasing us, so we escaped."
Zhou Pingping pouted. She was lying. It was not like what she said at all.
She remembered that the bandits said that she had magical powers and must be a demon in disguise. She didn't know whether she would kill her, her brother and her grandmother.
Grandma Zhou also found it incredible, but she saw that Su Man didn't want to elaborate and didn't ask any more questions. She smiled and said, "It's good that you can come back, it's good that you can come back."
"Grandma, I'm hungry." Zhou Pingping said from a distance away from Su Man, holding her flat belly.
Grandma Zhou borrowed a pot from a villager, and Zhou Anan picked up firewood, lit it and used it to cook corn porridge.
Seeing that Grandma Zhou had only poured a small amount, Zhou Pingping pointed at the pot and said, "Grandma, you put too little in. This is not enough to eat."
Grandma Zhou tied up her bag and said, "We don't know when we'll be able to find food again. It's good to have something to eat."
Zhou Pingping pouted. She knew that food was hard to come by now, so she had to give up.
After a while, the porridge was ready.
It’s not quite right to call it porridge. It’s half a bowl of water and only a little rice at the bottom of the bowl. I drank...and ate it all in one go.
You don’t even have to wash the bowl after eating, just rinse it.
At this time, every household was having dinner, and opposite Su Man and her family was Qin Mosheng's family.
Originally, Widow Song didn't have much food left, but with the help of Wang Xiuxiu, she had a full meal with wild vegetables and porridge.
Because of today's disagreement, Widow Song deliberately moved the bowl around so that Su Man and the others could see the full bowl of wild vegetable porridge.
Qin Mosheng and Qin Wanru were not as ostentatious as Widow Song, but they also seemed very proud.
Su Man was amused. Is this a chain of contempt?
She patted her pants and stood up, "Mother-in-law, I'll go see if there's anything to eat nearby."
"etc."
Grandma Zhou held Su Man back. She was very scared after coming out of the bandit's den and didn't want Su Man to take risks again. "Why don't we not go today? These things are enough for us to eat for two days."
Su Man knew that Grandma Zhou was concerned about her, so she soothed her gently, "Don't worry, I'll be careful, and I won't go far. I'll stay nearby and won't get lost."
"I'll go with Sister Man."
Zhao Yuru also stood up. Afraid that Su Man would refuse, she stared at Su Man with her hands clasped together.
Su Man didn't want to bring anyone, but in order to reassure Grandma Zhou, she had no choice but to nod.
If it doesn't work, just send her away and let Mimi replenish her warehouse.
And so, the two set off together.
Zhou Pingping kept staring at Su Man. When she saw Su Man leave, she said anxiously, "Grandma, that evil woman has some magic. You should drive her away!"
"What nonsense."
Grandma Zhou scolded softly, "Your aunt brought you back safely, you should be grateful to her, how can you say that to her?"
"I'm telling the truth!"
Seeing that her grandmother didn't believe her, Zhou Pingping told her everything that had just happened.
Including how Su Man kills people without blinking an eye, and the mysterious hidden weapon in her hand.
"...That's just how she is."
Zhou Pingping raised her hand and made a biu gesture, "That person is dead!"
Seeing that what she said was so convincing, Grandma Zhou was also a little shocked, "Is it really like that?"
"I swear, if I tell a lie, I will never be able to eat again!"
Zhou Pingping's words were so convincing that Grandma Zhou had no choice but to believe them.
Hidden weapons? Magic?
They all live in the village, how did Wang Man learn all this?
Zhou Anan wasn't as scared as Zhou Pingping, and asked excitedly, "Is Auntie really that powerful? What about those bad guys? Did she beat them all to death?"
Speaking of the dead, Zhou Pingping shrank her neck in fear. "They were all dead. One even fell on me with his eyes wide open. It was so scary."
Zhou Anan's eyes lit up. If his aunt was really that powerful, then he could become her apprentice!
"Then when Auntie comes back, I'll ask her to teach me so I can protect everyone!"
Zhou Anan was eager to try, but Grandma Zhou stopped him, "No."
After some thought, Grandma Zhou made a decision. She said seriously, "Pingping, keep this to yourself. Don't tell anyone. Do you understand?"
"Huh? Why?"
Zhou Pingping was puzzled. Shouldn't everyone be told so that everyone could be on guard?
Grandma Zhou patiently explained, "Pingping, I know you harbor resentment towards your aunt, but think carefully. If it weren't for your sister-in-law, would you have been able to live peacefully until now?"
"I..."
Although Zhou Pingping didn't want to admit it, she couldn't help but remember that when Su Man was facing the bandits, she told the bandits to let her go first.
Seeing Zhou Pingping fall silent, Grandma Zhou continued, "Think about it, your sister-in-law is so powerful, but along the way, no matter how you called her a bad woman, she never did anything to you. She even saved you from the bandits. So, people should know how to repay kindness."
Zhou Pingping seemed to understand, but when she thought of Su Man killing someone, she couldn't help but feel scared, and her voice became louder. "Grandma, could that bad woman be a demon?"
"Shhh."
Grandma Zhou covered Zhou Pingping's mouth and looked around to see that no one was paying attention to them. Then she lowered her voice and said, "Don't talk nonsense. If the villagers hear you, it will be a big disaster."
The villagers are feudal and conservative. If they knew there was a "witch woman" around them, they would definitely capture her and sacrifice her to the gods. That would be terrible.
-
At the same time, the "witch" was trying her best to get rid of Zhao Yuru.
