Among the fleeing crowd, there was a village where several hooligans were gathered together discussing something. They weren't discussing anything else, just robbing Tang Baozhu's carriage that night.
Unfortunately, while they were discussing their matters, they didn't expect that there were plants eavesdropping nearby, who reported everything they were discussing to Tang Baozhu.
Tang Baozhu didn't say anything after hearing this, and didn't care at all. Anyway, the puppet driving the carriage would handle those things.
However, he still gave the puppets an order: when they came forward, just break their legs; their lives were no longer a concern.
Actually, I felt that they were all from the same village as the people around them, so there was no need to provoke public anger. Although I could definitely beat them, I still felt that it was better to avoid trouble.
I figured if I broke one of their legs, no one else would say anything, since they were the ones who had bad intentions first, so I shouldn't blame myself for being ruthless.
The carriage stopped at the edge of the grove of trees. As soon as it stopped, the puppets beside it helped to take out the pots and pans from the back.
They didn't bring too much stuff, just a stove and an iron pot. They took out some noodles, cooked a little bit, enough for the mother and daughter to eat.
It just so happens that Xiaobao really likes flavorful food, even noodles with just a little salt and oil.
As the noodles were almost cooked, the aroma they emitted made the people nearby practically drool.
Even though they really wanted to eat it, no one came over to ask for it, and even though the naughty kids kept making a fuss, their parents stopped them.
After all, everyone knows that they can still take a horse-drawn carriage these days, and people on the road are not to be trifled with. They don't want something to happen when they are about to arrive at a big city.
However, this did not include those few hooligans, who looked like they were about to drool, their eyes filled with an even more obvious determination to win.
They were initially worried that there wouldn't be much good food when they went out tonight, but seeing the noodles that Tang Baozhu and the others had cooked, they felt that even just some noodles would be acceptable.
Tang Baozhu ignored the stares of others, blowing on the food to cool it down before feeding it to her son, and then eating herself after she had finished eating.
Then, he would secretly pretend to take out his baby bottle from the storage area below and hand it to Xiao Bao. After Xiao Bao had finished drinking, he would tidy up a bit and let him sleep on a blanket in the carriage.
Tang Baozhu is particularly satisfied with the fact that her son doesn't fuss when he sleeps. When he wants to sleep, he just drinks his fill from a bottle and lies in bed for a while before falling asleep on his own.
Seeing that her son was asleep, Tang Baozhu went into her space to wash up. After she was clean, she came out of the space.
I was worried that if I came back late, he would find out and that wouldn't be good.
Seeing that it was pitch black outside and that the people in the darkness were getting restless, Tang Baozhu simply blew out the candles inside, then hugged her son and went to sleep.
You have to give others a chance to attack; if the light is always on, they definitely won't dare to make a move.
As for the robbers, Tang Baozhu didn't care. The puppets would deal with them all in a moment, so she didn't have to worry about them. Her only concern was whether the noise would wake up her precious son.
Lying in the carriage, she hugged her son and prepared to sleep.
I'm glad I made this carriage myself; otherwise, I'm worried that if I bought a carriage from outside, with so much stuff piled up inside, I wouldn't even be able to stretch out my arms and legs.
While half asleep, Tang Baozhu heard noises outside. Knowing there were puppets around, she wasn't worried about safety at all, so she turned over, hugged her son tightly, and went back to sleep.
The hooligans on the side originally thought that the lights inside the carriage had been turned off, and that it would be time for them to make their move.
Although the puppet sat motionless on the side of the carriage, giving the impression that it was asleep, it was this that convinced the hooligans to take action.
Just as those hooligans reached the edge of the carriage and tried to go further, the puppet broke their legs with a wave of its hand.
They kept groaning in pain, and the puppet, worried that their noise would disturb its master's sleep, simply grabbed them by the clothes around their necks and threw them into the grove.
After throwing everything over, he returned to the front of the carriage where he had been sitting, sitting there motionless, as if he hadn't been the one who had just broken someone's leg.
Because the commotion was so loud, it woke up everyone else in the grove. Seeing the hooligans lying around groaning and groaning, some of their family members, seeing that the puppet was sitting there motionless, figured they wouldn't mind and quickly carried their family members back home.
Some of the good-for-nothings who had no family were completely ignored. It was only when their village chief saw that the puppet did not stop them from taking the people back that he called a few villagers to take them back to the place where everyone in the village lived.
Now no one dared to approach the carriage; to them, the person inside was nothing short of a devil.
Everyone is fleeing now; breaking someone's leg is practically denying them any hope of survival.
After all, no one wants to carry a person with a broken leg on their journey, even if they are from the same family. Seeing such a burden, they would have the thought of abandoning them.
So they felt that Tang Baozhu and her group were quite ruthless. Although they didn't kill them, it was worse than killing them. It was like letting them quietly wait to die.
Tang Baozhu had no idea what others were thinking. She held her son and slept soundly until dawn, feeling refreshed and invigorated.
Especially when my son woke up in the morning, with that adorable expression on his face, I couldn't help but pinch his cheeks a few times before I let go just before he started to cry.
"Little Bao, you can't blame Mommy, can you? You're just too cute, Mommy just couldn't help it."
Xiao Bao didn't say anything, but just looked at Tang Baozhu with a wronged expression, as if to say, "How could you do this?"
Tang Baozhu felt a little embarrassed by the stares, so she quickly got some water to wash herself and her son, then cooked some noodles. After they finished eating, she gave the baby some milk and then prepared to leave.
