But she soon discovered a loophole. She could get married and have children after finding a new home, which meant that as long as she was on the road, she didn't have to think about getting married first.
"Baby, if my mother gives birth to another sister, and she grows up and marries and has children like other women, would that be considered mission accomplished?!"
"Hello, player. Your mission is to help Xu Daya and her family safely find a new home suitable for living, and to help Xu Daya successfully marry and have children."
Xu Ning understood that he had to find a way to let Zhang give birth to another daughter, so he named her Xu Daya!
Xu Ning was trying to change the concept, but the treasure chest was completely unaware of it.
Have a good night's sleep.
The next morning, Xu Ning was awakened by the aroma of fish soup.
This fish soup smells delicious, but it tastes like an indescribable earthy smell!
"Baby, give me some ginger and pepper!" Xu Ning put down his bowl and chopsticks and reached out to touch the box. Before he could stretch out his hand, he was held down by Old Mrs. Xu.
The eyes of the other members of the Xu family also fell on Xu Ning, staring closely at her hands. Seeing this, Xu Ning said angrily, "Grandma, can I go to the woods to dig some wild ginger?"
"No, there's nothing in the woods. Daya, drink the fish soup quickly, and then we can continue on our journey."
Xu Ning looked at Old Lady Xu's face which pretended to be unhappy, and felt a little frightened. He had no choice but to bite the bullet, pinch his nose and drink up the bowl of still warm fish soup.
As for the remaining fish, she refused to eat it anymore.
Xu Ning handed the remaining fish meat to his father Xu Da. The fish meat had an abnormally large number of bones. Xu Ning had no idea what kind of fish was hidden in the mud. Not only did it have a strong smell, but the meat was also not tasty.
Xu Da didn't mind at all. He even chewed the fish bones into pieces and swallowed them. He ate with such relish that Xu Ning was stunned.
The others were the same, they didn't seem to feel how fishy the fish was at all, and they all ate it with relish!
Old Mrs. Xu sucked the bone marrow from the fish head, then turned around and chewed the fish head into pieces and swallowed it.
Xu Ning smacked his lips. It turned out that Xu Da had inherited such good teeth from Old Lady Xu!
The remaining large bones that could not be chewed were not wasted. Old Mrs. Xu carefully put them in a broken bowl and prepared to stew them for the next meal.
Old Man Xu was the first to finish eating. At this moment, he was half lying on the cart, leisurely picking his teeth with a fish bone.
Xu Ning was just about to grope her way over to Old Man Xu, but as soon as her butt left the ground, five pairs of eyes that were eating fish soup all looked at her again.
"I...I just want to move around after eating, hehe."
"Well, Daya, go and talk to your grandfather." Old Mrs. Xu spoke, and the others continued to lower their heads and concentrate on gnawing on the fish bones.
Xu Ning quickly apologized with a smile, patted his butt and ran to Old Man Xu.
"Grandpa, that's Uncle Li's wife. She's so beautiful!" Xu Ning looked around bored. The family closest to the Xu family was the hunter Li's family.
It is said that when Li the Hunter fled the famine, his wife had not yet given birth and the child was born on the road, and the midwife was Xu Ning's grandmother, Old Lady Xu.
"Of course. It's said that Hunter Li's wife is..." Old Man Xu lowered his voice and whispered a few words in Xu Ning's ear. Xu Ning's eyes lit up instantly and he couldn't help but exclaimed, "This Uncle Li is really amazing!"
After the Xu family had eaten and drunk their fill, they began to pack up their things.
As the sun gradually rose higher, Xu Ning felt her scalp was extremely itchy. She reached out and scratched it, and actually dug out a large piece of black mud!
Xu Ning put her finger close to her nose and sniffed. The stench almost made her spit out the fish soup she had just drunk.
Last night when she went to sleep, she felt something crawling in her hair, but she was too tired to pay attention to it. Now that she had time to think about it, she felt unwell.
It's over, my head must be a nest of lice! Xu Ning reached out and grabbed the youngest Xu Xiaobao. As soon as she pulled his hair apart, she saw a louse jumped onto her hand!
"Ahhh! Bang!" After Xu Ning killed the louse, he saw a red bump on Xu Xiaobao's scalp!
"Daya! What's wrong?" Upon hearing the voice, Old Mrs. Xu hurriedly put down what she was holding and ran over, and the other members of the Xu family also swarmed over.
He didn't feel it yesterday, but now under the sunlight, the Xu family exuded a strong stench. In just a moment, Xu Ning was almost choked to tears.
"Grandma, why don't you shave all your hair? It's full of worms!" Xu Ning had a sad face and looked like he was on the verge of collapse.
"What nonsense! Your hair and body are given to you by your parents, how can you just shave them off?"
Old Lady Xu feigned anger and patted Xu Ning lightly on the back. Then she turned to Zhang and said, "Old lady, go to Hunter Li's house and borrow a pair of scissors. I'll cut Xiaobao and Daya's hair!"
"Hey, Mom, I'm going right away!"
Almost all of the Xu family's belongings were robbed on the road. The pair of scissors from Li the Hunter's house was spared only because Li the Hunter's wife secretly hid it in the gap of the cart.
The Xu family did hide a knife, but a knife is not as useful as scissors.
"Granny, shave it all off. Leaving a little stubble will look ugly."
"What's ugly? You're a little girl who hasn't even grown all your hair yet, and you're still complaining about whether it looks good or not. I think you're dreaming!"
Old Mrs. Xu patted Xu Ning's back again. Xu Ning touched his prickly hair and pouted unhappily.
Old Mrs. Xu specially left a tuft of hair for Xu Ning, and did the same for Xu Xiaobao.
