"Take the child back."
After Zhao Da finished giving the instructions, he smiled kindly, bowed to the villagers, and apologized for his children.
Most of the villagers forgave him.
The village chief was even more satisfied.
Chu's mother was quite satisfied and naturally didn't bother with him. Zhao Da then turned around and left.
When Zhou Jiaojiao looked at Zhao Dashi, she accidentally met the eyes of Shen Lin, who had appeared at some point and was standing next to the tree opposite.
She was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted and looked at her calmly.
Surprise flashed across Shen Lin's eyes.
She raised her eyebrows slightly. Zhou Jiaojiao was not dead? She was even found by Chu San. She was really lucky.
but.
Her eldest uncle from her husband's family suffered a loss in front of the Chu family this time. I'm afraid they won't let it go and there will most likely be an internal conflict. He's a gigolo!
When Shen Lin thought of this, she was no longer in the mood to pay attention to Zhou Jiaojiao, so she turned around and left.
"My wife?"
Chu San was asked by his mother to take his wife back to the cave. The cart he was pulling was being pulled by his elder brother Chu. The elder brother Chu looked at Chu Erbao and asked him what had happened and whether his injury was serious.
"Well, let's go back." Zhou Jiaojiao withdrew her gaze and couldn't help thinking in her heart. It seemed that Chen Lin did not doubt the problem with the jade pendant. However, she still had to find a chance to take the jade pendant back. After all, it was the original owner's personal belongings.
Zhou Jiaojiao was carried by Chu San and walked towards the cave where the Chu family lived.
She wanted to go on her own.
But Chu San, who had nothing left, was determined not to do it.
She didn't want to make a fool of herself in front of everyone, so she had to snuggle in his arms and obey him.
It was getting dark now.
There was still some moonlight outside.
The cave was pitch black.
When Zhou Jiaojiao was carried in and heard the sound of dripping water, she finally understood why the people in the village had to stay here.
But judging from the sound of water, I'm afraid there's not much water left.
Because the caves with water are not damp at all.
"Third brother."
"Third sister-in-law."
"You are finally back."
"We were really scared." Chu's second sister-in-law Zeng Wenling patted her chest in fear. After Zhou Jiaojiao was put down, she quickly pulled her towards the Chu family's bonfire.
"Third sister-in-law, it's just right that you're back. We're going to have dinner."
The fire is used to drive away wild beasts or cook food. Every household has one, but a small fire is enough. After all, it is too hot and you will feel too hot if you get close to the fire.
The Chu family had two carts.
We ate on a cart, a little further away from the fire so our faces wouldn't get roasted.
The three children next to them have already started eating.
Brother Chu has two children, Chu Dabao and Chu Erbao, both sons. Chu Dabao is eight years old and Chu Erbao is five years old.
Brother Chu has two children.
Chu Dahua, Chu Xiaohua, Dahua is six years old, Xiaohua is three years old.
Although Zeng Wenling gave birth to two daughters and was talked about by outsiders in the village, her own people didn't think anything of it. Although she wanted to have a son, she knew that she couldn't force it, so she didn't change her personality.
Zhou Jiaojiao took the steamed bun and a small bowl of pickled vegetable soup handed to her by Zeng Wenling and said thank you.
Zeng Wenling was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Third sister-in-law, why are you being so polite?"
Zhou Jiaojiao froze for a moment. She was used to saying thank you, but she didn't expect Zeng Wenling to notice something strange.
"Wenling, what you said is true. My third sister-in-law has received education and is used to it." The second brother Chu was more lively than the eldest brother Chu. He said this with a smile and inadvertently helped Zhou Jiaojiao out of the predicament.
She simply averted her gaze and asked while eating dinner, "Is there still much water in the cave?"
This made the Chu family silent, except for the child who didn't quite understand and was still eating with big mouthfuls of food, as he was very hungry.
"Not much." It was the second brother Chu who spoke.
He sighed and said, "Let us hold on for three more days at most."
"Also, Third Sister-in-law, all the water in the cave had been distributed before you came back. Our family received three buckets."
"Three buckets won't be enough for us to walk very far." Chu Xiaomei said worriedly, "Second brother, where are we going to find water in the future?"
Mother Chu glared at Second Brother Chu and Little Sister Chu and said, "Don't say those discouraging words."
"If you want to eat, eat. If you don't want to eat, go to work."
"I got a lot of grass roots, ground them up and packed them up."
"If there's no water, just drink less. As long as you don't die of thirst, that's fine."
Chu's mother made arrangements in an orderly manner.
Both Chu Xiaomei and Chu Erge kept silent tacitly, and no one mentioned the future again. Instead of worrying, it would be better to make more preparations.
Zhou Jiaojiao actually likes the atmosphere of the Chu family very much.
She didn't eat much, but Chu's mother asked her to eat more.
"You should eat more. No one with a twin body can handle it." Mother Chu sighed and said, "This child came at a bad time. He has suffered with us."
"Mom, I can't eat anymore. I'll eat later." Zhou Jiaojiao didn't have a big appetite and was used to eating small meals frequently.
Chu's mother was obviously used to it and agreed to let her put it away.
Finished the meal.
Everyone got busy.
It turned out that according to the thinking of most of the elderly people in the village, the water in the mountains had dried up, and if they stayed here, they would not be able to wait for water, so they should continue to head north as soon as possible.
We have to set off early tomorrow morning.
After Zhou Jiaojiao finished her meal, Chu San carried her to a place near the mountain wall and sat her on a cart.
She asked Chu San to call Chu's mother over.
Chu's mother came over, sat next to him and asked.
"Jiaojiao, what's the matter?"
Zhou Jiaojiao pointed to the supplies on the cart and said, "I brought these back from the road."
She told him about the bandits she met on the road.
Mother Chu was shocked: "There is meat?"
"It seems that this meat needs to be processed, otherwise it will go bad and we will lose money."
"But Jiaojiao, this meat was earned by you and Lao San, so you can eat it."
"Mom, that won't do. Since we are a family, we must eat together."
Mother Chu smiled and sighed, "Alas, I had originally thought that after the autumn harvest, we would have enough money to buy a skull for the third child. But we didn't expect a natural disaster to happen. It's hard for you. You should have lived a good life."
She didn't think that Zhou Jiaojiao would have to live a hard life with the whole family if she married the third brother.
She's not that shameless.
When Zhou Jiaojiao heard this, she subconsciously said, "Mom, I actually learned some medical skills before. I will take good care of my husband. It's just that I don't have medicine or silver needles now. I have to wait a little longer if I want him to recover."
She had felt Chu San's pulse before and found that there was nothing wrong with his body. The reason why he became stupid was probably because of the blood clot in his brain.
"Jiaojiao knows medicine?" Mother Chu was a little surprised.
Zhou Jiaojiao was worried that she would think she was hiding it on purpose.
After all, the original owner never actually said that he had been in the Chu family for half a year.
"Mom, will you be angry that I didn't tell you before?" Zhou Jiaojiao asked, staring at Chu's mother nervously.
