hen she went back to her parents' home for the second year of junior high, she dressed up to show off to her relatives.Without saying Wenjuan's thoughts, let alone Li Lao Tai recalling her granddaught...He couldn't cry in front of Grandma, he couldn't cry in front of Dad, and he definitely couldn't worry his younger brothers.

It was only when she held her youngest sister in her arms that she cried out all the fear and disappointment she had been feeling.

Li Lao Tai had one arm bound up, she carried water over, and from afar when she saw this, she also secretly wiped away tears.

It's fine if he can read or not, the eldest grandson will be able to farm and won't starve. Besides, there are still Jia Xi and Jia An.

But that such a kind and filial grandson, she was really afraid he would be disheartened, lose his spirit...

Now it's good, crying doesn't keep it bottled up inside anymore, I'm not afraid of getting sick from holding it in...

No one knew how Jiarren had made up his mind, but seeing him walk out of the cave with his injured hand and help with the work, everyone was happy for him.

Sometimes people urged him to take a rest, but Jia Ren just smiled and shook his head.

Perhaps the wolf pack's annihilation had intimidated all the beasts, big and small, in the surrounding area.

This night, the area around the cave was exceptionally quiet, unlike before when it was constantly under surveillance. Not even a single bird or beast dared to come close.

But most of them were in pain from their wounds and tossed and turned all night.

In the middle of the night, Mrs. Liu developed a fever and Jia Ren also flushed and babbled incoherently.

Liu Biaotou and Liu Yang were in a panic, but luckily Tao Hongying wasn't seriously hurt. They fetched water and used cloth to cool down Mrs. Liu.

Li Lao'er and Jia Yi's family are responsible for taking care of Jia Ren, which is also a common practice.

The divine physician Zhang had prepared the herbs beforehand and quickly boiled them into a remedy. He force-fed it to the two until dawn broke, and only then did their fevers subside completely.

The cave was packed with people. Jiayin didn't dare make any small movements, her heart was pounding with impatience.

Luckily, Dr. Zhang was reliable and everything went smoothly.

But after such repeated back-and-forth, everyone was somewhat down in the dumps.

Now I've gone deep into the mountains, climbed almost a dozen peaks, and there's no way to retreat.

Anyone can be infected, and the illness could worsen at any time, leading to a fever. Even with a doctor by your side, no one can guarantee you won't end up being called upon by the Grim Reaper.

Could the path they chose for survival actually be a dead end

Uncle Zhao's injured leg worsened, though it wasn't feverish, it was still very uncomfortable.

The village head's daughter-in-law was already weak, and after being attacked by a pack of wolves, she wasn't doing well. The village head has been taking care of her all this time.

The two ringleaders didn't have time to attend to the emotions of the crowd at that moment.

And Lao Si also had to lie down and recuperate...

At this time, Liu Biaotou stepped forward. He didn't call out to the villagers; he just took his son and Jiayì and plunged into the forest.

When the villagers finally discovered it, the sun had already begun to set.

These three people also came back, bringing five rabbits, three wild chickens, and one deer, one goat.

Such a bountiful harvest caused the entire camp to erupt in excitement.

But everyone who could move, including the elderly and children, got busy.

Boil water, peel, roast meat and stew meat, simmer chicken soup.

Everywhere is fragrant, everywhere is hot.

Hot food and a full stomach can cheer anyone up.

Yesterday, Mrs. Liu risked her life to save an elderly person and a child by killing a wolf, getting bitten on the shoulder. Today, Master Liu, the head of the鏢局, is just as valiant, returning with abundant prey.

This couple is simply the second surprise Heaven sent to Qing Shui Village.

Of course, the first one is Li's family!

Everyone ate while thanking each other profusely. Liu Biāotóu personally fed his wife chicken congee, waving his hand dismissively and casually advising the crowd.

"Eat well, drink well, and heal up. Tomorrow we'll hit the road again, we have to keep moving. This weather gets colder by the day, be careful not to get stuck in the mountains. Who knows what kind of chaos is going on outside Did the barbarians come raiding Even though we're in the mountains, it's still dangerous, but it's better than being chased by barbarians with swords out there."

Everyone nodded, thinking about the chaos outside. It did seem much better to be in the forest.

At least when facing wolves, they have a fighting chance, but against the barbarian iron cavalry, they are probably only fodder.

“Alright, let's leave early tomorrow! We have to get out there as soon as possible!”

"Yes, my left hand is hurt, but I still have my right hand. I can pull the sled with my shoulders."

"Me too, no broken bones, just flesh wounds that will heal in a few days."

Everyone began to discuss how to rearrange the sleds for the patients.

The patients, hearing this, refused to be carried and insisted on walking if their legs weren't seriously injured, lightening the burden for everyone else.

Li Lao Si gnawed on the rabbit leg and gave Liu Biatou a thumbs up.

"Liu Gege is still the most capable, truly worthy of being a leader. With just a few words, he rekindled everyone's fighting spirit."

Liu Biaotou chuckled wryly, pondered for a moment and decided to be honest. He told them about his encounter with the Li family before.

Originally, when they left from Junyang, there were seven or eight families and forty to fifty people.

I thought that with so many people, there would be someone to look after me on the road.

To their surprise, those families' wives were foolish and meddlesome. They went out without a care for the saying "keep your wealth hidden."

Not only did he bring a lot of valuable things, but he was also dressed in silk and satin, with jewels all over his head. As a result, he was targeted on the road.

At night, a group of people came with axes and sticks to attack.

They fought valiantly, even neglecting their own carriage, which was snatched away by the thieves.

But the rest of them were unrighteous. Some ran away that very night, and others saw them injured the next day and slipped away secretly.

Fortunately, their last remaining carriage still had some rice and grain.

But the toll to cross the city gate was too high, the three of them were worried about it, just when they encountered Li Laosi and villagers.

After finishing the congee, Mrs. Liu felt a bit better and sighed in agreement.

"Not to mention others, even I brought a lot of useless things. The first time fleeing for my life, my head was in a mess, I didn't expect it to be so...difficult."

Li Laosi quickly comforted, "Sister-in-law don't get angry, although it was difficult, but luckily it's over now."

Mrs. Liu nodded and smiled, "That's right, your family is our lucky charm. Before when escorting goods, your brother Liu always said he had found a treasure with you two nephews around. He didn't have to worry at all. Unexpectedly, in these turbulent times, we got your help again, saving three lives."

"Your sister-in-law is truly remarkable. Brother Liu and Liu Yang are both skilled fighters, but your sister-in-law is a rare warrior among women. We are fortunate as a village to have met your family."

Nearby villagers, who had just heard bits and pieces of the story, began to shout.

"Yeah, our village is lucky. We can pick just about anyone and they'll be the best."

Everyone burst into laughter, making the camp atmosphere even more lively.

The next day, everyone got up early to build a fire, cook, pack their belongings, check their sleds, and feed the surviving big green one before setting off again.

This time, there was no village chief or Zhao Shu's arrangement, but after experiencing life and death, all the young and middle-aged people were like spring grass broken by a storm, standing up again, and becoming even more tenacious.

Whether it's clearing the way ahead, forming a rearguard, or distributing tasks like plowing, the villagers arrange everything through their own discussions and agreements.

All the way, work was clearly divided, and no one complained about hardship or fatigue.

The village head and Uncle Zhao were overjoyed, they almost shed tears.

They are not unwilling to protect the villagers, but what could be more gratifying than having successors, having younger generations take up the mantle!

Jia Yin didn't have time to care about so much. Taking advantage of the march, the team stretched out, and nearby were all their own people.

She was busy making food in the space, feeding them at any time, of course mostly steamed buns.r June. At that time, we will ask a fortune teller to calculate which day is auspicious and set the date accordingly.In the afternoon, after bidding farewell to Jia Erfu and her daughter Baozhu, who h...
