"Grandma, haven't they always wanted to bring disaster to the people of Houshan Village? It's perfect, let's see how they can bring disaster this time."
Xiushui sneered, and the old lady sighed.
"Alright, let's do it this way. We don't know who will be dealt with in the end. And that fat woman surnamed Zhou, I really don't want to see her again. Let's deal with her together this time."
If she lets that fat guy jump down again, she will be sick to death.
Xiushui nodded, and was also thinking about how to deal with the people in the eldest house when the time comes.
Old Mrs. Xu from the eldest house was not a good person either. I let her go earlier, thinking that she would learn to be smarter.
Unfortunately, apart from hating her family even more, people only feel resentment towards them.
This kind of person will only blame others for all the misfortunes that happen to her.
And she herself is the most innocent person.
Without giving it any further thought, it was just like usual. Those who were supposed to be taught medical theory went to school, while the other children followed along and recited various soup recipe songs.
Nowadays, anyone who flees without knowing a few herbs or a few words will be laughed at by others.
Even the group of people in the women's village are now trying hard to learn to read and recognize herbs.
Xiushui had reason to suspect that after arriving at the destination, this group of refugees might really become a village that knew medicine.
As usual, Wen Changding once again wandered among the newly arrived refugees, picked out suitable young men and women who were pleasing to the eye, and began to lobby for them to be hired as workers or to do some work.
The smarter ones would leave as soon as he asked, but anyone who stopped would almost always be persuaded to leave by him and the people he brought with him.
Sister Zhou said that finding one more person means more money.
He knew that this kind of life would not last long, so he had to make money. Only by making a lot of money could he buy a house and marry a new wife.
Thinking of getting married, he glanced unhappily at Xiao Xu who was also coaxing someone not far away.
This woman had been filled with hatred for him ever since he traded her for the youngest girl. Don't think he didn't see it, but she just wanted to rely on him for a living, so she kept it to herself.
In fact, he just thought that she worked well and could coax people, otherwise he would have sold her off long ago.
As a man, as long as he has money, he will have no worries about finding a wife.
He really didn't want to sleep with a woman like Xiao Xu, who had become even uglier after giving birth to a baby.
If he became rich, married a virgin girl, and had a bunch of children, his life would still be very good.
The thought flashed through his mind, and Wen Changding saw the person in front of him nodded and agreed to go to work, so he said goodbye to Xiao Xu and took people back.
Xiao Xu watched the man leave, her eyes filled with hatred.
She didn't feel it before when she was in the village, but since she fled the famine, she finally understood it.
The person next to me is the typical one who only loves me, and all the other wives and children are expendable.
Thinking back to when the man escaped, he sold the eldest child for a bag of rice.
At that time, she thought that although Da Wa was sold, at least he was still alive, and the family who could buy him would definitely not let him down, so even if she had some resentment, she didn't say anything.
Who knew that the man behind this was so heartless, knowing full well what would happen to the girl if she was replaced, he agreed to the replacement without changing his expression.
When the skinny child was put into the pot, she couldn't eat a single bite, but this man was chewing on it with gusto...
Every time in the middle of the night, as long as I close my eyes, the image of Wen Changding grabbing the child's leg bone and sucking greedily with a smacking sound will appear...
Several times, she even saw that the child eventually became her own daughter.
But she didn't dare to get angry, and could only endure it and try to please him and do the job he asked her to do.
Otherwise, this man would have taken action against her if he saw that she was of no use to him.
"Why are you sitting here staring blankly instead of working? No wonder the boss doesn't like you. You look so dull all day long. You don't have the cleverness you used to have."
Hearing Old Xu's curses, Young Xu suppressed the hatred in her eyes. This old woman was not a good person either.
She clearly had a lover in her heart back then, but she insisted on getting herself and Wen Changding together.
She said that she was her brother's daughter, and that as her aunt, she would definitely treat her as her own daughter in the future.
Oh, pamper?
She started acting like a mother-in-law from the first day she got married. After escaping famine and reuniting with the eldest daughter, she even instigated her and enjoyed torturing her every day.
Until now, she can't show off her status and wealth without being scolded every day. Can this be called pampering?
"Mom, I'll go right away."
"Hey, wait a minute, I see there are so many people in this group. No, this group of people are from Houshan Village. Old family, come back quickly, let's hide in the crowd first."
After seeing who was coming, Mrs. Xu was so scared that she quickly pulled out her hair and wiped her face.
After making sure that no one could recognize him in this ghostly appearance, he felt at ease and hid in the crowd.
She was not afraid at all of being recognized for her appearance. After all, it was very common to see people like them with dirty hair and unkempt faces in the refugee group.
The fact that most people in Houshan Village appear clean is actually an abnormal state.
"There are so many people here. Although they are fleeing famine, they look a little different from us."
"Of course it's different. We've been fleeing famine for so long, and we have nothing but the necessary clothes and cooking pots.
This group of people had cars and horses, and their clothes looked a little dusty.
There are quite a few elderly people and children nearby. This is obviously different from how we are fleeing famine, isn't it? "
"Yes, I mean what's different. This group of people, young and old, are obviously fleeing famine in the village.
The people in our village dispersed a long time ago, but this group of people can still form a village. It's really not easy."
"It's really not simple. Earlier I thought this group of people were from some escort agency. But after a closer look, I realized they weren't.
They are obviously from the same village, but how come so many people from the same village have weapons?"
