Chapter 151 Good parents will never sell their children
As soon as Shen Qing came back, someone told them about Wang Fugui borrowing grain.
Huo Bing apologized first: "I'm sorry everyone, if it weren't for my delay, we would have already left when Wang Fugui and the others came. There's no need to put up with his anger."
Feng Xing smiled smugly, "I didn't get bullied! It's better for us to let him get bullied!"
"Yeah, can any cat or dog make us angry? Then how weak are we?"
"When we first fled the famine, we tolerated him. Now that we've experienced the ups and downs of life, how can we still be controlled by him?"
Especially with Aunt Shen Qing setting an example in front, if Wang Fugui and his group dare to come again, who knows who will rob whom!
Wang Cui stepped forward, patted Huo Bing's hand, and comforted him, "If you're talking about delays, how could our Zhao family have wasted more time? If it was because of delays that we encountered these disasters, then Boss Sun and today were all delayed by our Zhao family.
Auntie knows that this is definitely not what you meant, so don't take the blame on yourself. We solve problems when they arise. The bad ones are the ones who do evil, not us!"
Wang Cui's words not only made Huo Bing feel less guilty, but also made Shen Qing look at her with admiration.
Women in this dynasty could not read or write, and had no way to make a living. If Wang Cui was born in China, she would definitely be able to find a good way for herself and live a better life...
It was getting close to evening, and even if we hurried, we could only walk a dozen miles at most. The further away we were from Wen'an City, the more uneasy we would feel.
In addition, I was very tired from traveling recently, so I finally decided to have a good rest tonight and get up early tomorrow to continue my journey.
The firewood for the stove is prepared at noon and can be used for dinner.
"Come on, I bought some buns for everyone to drink with the porridge. There aren't many buns, so I can't have meat or vegetable fillings for everyone.
Only one per person, it depends on your luck." Shen Qing said with a smile, holding the backpack.
Every household had heard from the man who followed Shen Qing into the city that he had eaten wontons and sesame cakes in the city. Now that they were given buns, they just thought of it as a reward for entering the city.
"No, no, they've already eaten wontons and sesame cakes. Going into the city isn't a big deal. How can they eat and take everything at the same time?!"
"If you ask me, I shouldn't eat wontons or sesame cakes. It's my fault for not teaching my child well in advance. Now this bun..."
Shen Qing interrupted with a smile: "Now everyone should eat these buns. This is not to express gratitude for their escort, nor has it anything else to do with it. I am just happy to treat everyone to a bun. Shouldn't everyone eat it?
Besides, I bought this big basket, and I can't store it in this weather. If you don't want to eat it, I can't just wait for it to go bad and throw it away, right? Wouldn't that mean I've wasted my money and gotten nothing in return?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Qing had already stuffed the bun in his hand into the hands of the child in front of him.
The child who got the bun swallowed his saliva at the plump and soft white bun in his hand, but no matter how greedy he was, he didn't dare to eat it directly. Instead, he looked up at his parents.
Shen Qing then stuffed a big bun into each of the child's parents' hands!
After a while, everyone had a solid bun as big as a fist in their hands, and Shen Qing replied with satisfaction.
With their diligence, their lives will get better and better in the future. Then, not only will they have one bun, but they will even have buns for every meal!
How could a steamed bun eaten while fleeing famine be so memorable?
Besides, life is so tiring and hard right now, having something delicious to eat is a little bit of sweetness in the midst of hardship...
The adults in each family holding the buns had mixed feelings, while the children were unconcealedly happy!
"Mom, is this all mine?" He had never eaten the buns before, but his parents hadn't eaten them either. He only heard from his uncle that the buns were delicious.
"Well, anything given by your Aunt Shen Qing belongs to whoever it is given to. Eat it with confidence."
A whole big bun is enough to fill children up, and adults only need to have a bowl of wild vegetable porridge to have a full and delicious meal.
The family who bought the sesame cakes made a salted duck egg and wild vegetable soup, broke the sesame cakes into pieces and threw them in, and paired it with big white flour buns. After eating it, they felt like they had nothing else to ask for.
Shen Qing's family not only has buns, but also sesame cakes, which are bought according to the number of people. Everyone gets one, so there is no need to break them into pieces and share them equally.
The egg drop soup was made directly, and the egg drops in the bowl were almost more than the soup. It was served with sesame cakes and buns. The three people in the Guan family were satisfied and more uneasy after eating it.
Especially Guan the Carpenter and Guan Xiaoshan, they always felt that they shouldn't have asked to partner up in the first place.
Originally thought that their family had enough food, even if it was not refined rice and white flour, but brown rice and grains could still fill them up and there would be some left over, so it was definitely not taking advantage of the Jiang family. But along the way, the Jiang family had good meals every day, so they took advantage of the Jiang family every time.
Carpenter Guan was particularly nervous. He kept thinking that he would buy all the furniture for the Jiang family once they got settled. Otherwise, how would he pay back for all the meals?
After dinner, Guan Li boiled water for Huo Bing to wash up and started to make medicine for him.
My aunt said that we can ignore everything else when fleeing from famine, but we women must pay attention to our hygiene. Our body structures are different, and if we don’t pay attention, we will be the ones who suffer later.
So as long as you can make a fire, you must boil a large pot of water and let it cool down for washing.
It was indeed effective. At least they didn't feel any pain or itching and suffered less.
"Xiao Li, thank you for your help." Huo Bing quietly walked to the fire and expressed his gratitude to Guan Li.
She has two little babies, especially Xiaocao who still needs to be fed. Whether it is Xiaoshui, Xiaogu, or Guanli who works with her, they all take care of her and do a lot of work for her.
She knew it in her heart.
Guan Li thought it was a trivial matter, not worth mentioning: "Why should we be polite to each other?"
Huo Bing picked up a branch, poked the fire, and chatted, "I originally thought it would be troublesome to boil the medicine on the way, so I told my mother to wait until we settled down and boil the medicine. Anyway, I don't care too much about whether I remember things before I was ten years old.
But my mother said that once the blood stasis has dissolved, I won’t have to worry about headaches anymore. To avoid long nights and more dreams, it’s better to eat it early.”
Guan Li nodded in agreement and said sincerely, "Aunt is right! Life is better now, and it's good to be able to recover childhood memories. What's more, you are not only recovering your memories, but more importantly, curing your illness. There is still a long way to go. You can't be in pain for the rest of your life."
She had seen Huo Bing when she had a headache. In the past, her aunt would only say that she was being pretentious and pretending to be sick and not working, but it was obvious that she couldn't fake the pain.
Since I finally got to see a doctor, it is naturally most important to get cured as soon as possible.
However, she was also a little curious about what Huo Bing was like as a child.
"Have you ever thought about what you were like before you came to the Jiang family? When you regain your memory, do you want to go find your biological parents?"
Huo Bing shook his head, a wry smile forming on his lips: "It's already been sold, how good can it be?"
Good parents will never sell their children.
She will be sold, and it can only be because she is not loved.
