Chapter 16

This is a good thing, something she liked at a glance, thanks to them taking the initiative to find fault, otherwise she would have no excuse to get this thing.

As for the other things, except for the basket, the three of them wore tattered clothes, and there was nothing Gulan could fancy.

She really wanted a pot, but it was a pity that they didn't carry it on their backs, but this water bag was enough, after all, she was only one person, and most of them were fleeing from the whole village and family. Not much good.

"You're right, I'm really not a man who is unreasonable and unforgiving, and I don't think about it for the time being, but it is a fact that my son was frightened, so this thing should be regarded as an apology for my son's fright, no problem?" Gu Lan Dingding looked at the three mother and son.

The old woman wanted to get back the water bladders. They only had two water bladders in their family, one was in the hands of the old man and the other was in the hands of the eldest son. At that time, they cost a lot of copper coins.

But looking at the little brother with unkind eyes, he finally swallowed the words in his mouth, this kid is not a kind person, if he really doesn't give it, then he is really getting started, fortunately, the water bladder is empty.

well!It's really unlucky enough, who made their blindness provoke a bad star.

The old woman's heart, liver, spleen and lungs hurt everywhere, but she still nodded, looked at Gulan bitterly, and dragged her son to the upper edge of the river cursing in her heart, secretly thinking that she must pay back the loss if she had a chance.

After their delay, the sky had turned dark at this time, and the crowd looking for mussels below the river had gradually dispersed.

Different from the gloomy mood of the old woman, Gu Lan felt happy in his heart. Can he be unhappy if he got a water bladder for nothing?

With this thing, she doesn't need to put water in the clay pot every day, and she doesn't need to be careful all the time when she is on the road, lest she make too much movement and knock over the clay pot. She doesn't care, mainly because she is afraid that the little bun will cry.

"Father" An An approached and grabbed Mother's hand.

"Hey, let's go." Gulan touched his son's head, put away the water bag and pulled him to the river bank, Dahei followed closely behind, and followed his master away from the crowd.

On the other side, the old woman brought her son back to the place where they rested at night with a look of resentment.

The daughter-in-law who also went out to look for food has gathered around the fire and started preparing for the day's food, which is actually wild vegetables and a little bit of black rough noodles.

Several hungry and emaciated children also gathered around the fire, keeping their eyes on the pot on the fire.

"What's the matter?" Old man Liu glanced at the gloomy old woman, thinking that she was upset because she didn't find anything to eat, and didn't think much about it.

But it was only when they turned their eyes to their sons that they noticed the abnormality. Both sons were covered with scars and exuded a faint smell of blood, obviously injured.

The old man Liu couldn't calm down immediately, he hurriedly got up and went to check next to his son, he was shocked and said, "What's wrong with you, did you have a conflict with someone?"

By the light of the fire, he found that the injury was not as serious as he thought, and he was relieved. They could not be injured while fleeing famine, and if the injury was too serious, it would be fatal.

"What... his father, what's the matter... how did you get hurt? It's not serious." Hearing what the old man said, the eldest daughter-in-law who was standing by the fire quickly came to her man, regardless of the rice on the fire exploded in an instant. Check it up and down.

The second daughter-in-law also came together. Seeing the bloodstains on her man's body, her eyes turned red and she wiped away tears, "Father Chun Shu, are you okay..." she asked in a sobbing voice.

"It's okay," the eldest said with pain, and the second also smiled at his wife.

"Okay, why cry, don't apply medicine for your men, let my mother remind you of everything, I don't know what use you are for."

Old Liu, who dug out the few wound medicines left from the package, glared angrily at the two daughters-in-law who only knew how to wipe away their tears.

The two of them didn't dare to cry and quickly got up to take the medicine from the mother-in-law's hand, and carefully and quickly gave the medicine to their man.

It's not like they couldn't see the mother-in-law's face, she was obviously in an extremely bad mood, and it was often their daughter-in-law who suffered in the end.

Seeing the daughters-in-law obediently applying the medicine to their sons, Mrs. Liu let out a "hum" before sitting down on the ground, her face still grim.

"What's the matter with the old woman? Didn't she go out to find food? How did the boss and the others get their injuries?"

Old Liu also held back all the way, and couldn't bear it when he heard the old man's words, and looked at the people not far away from them and whispered.

After all, it is not an honorable thing, the snatcher was robbed, and the old Liu naturally didn't want others to hear it. They were all in the same village, and they would inevitably laugh at him in the future. She couldn't afford to lose this person.

Here the old man Liu heard the old wife's words and knew the cause and effect. He has always been upright, his eyes widened in anger, and he pointed at the old wife with a trembling finger, "You...you..."

Before he finished speaking, there were loud coughing sounds, which made old Liu hurried to his wife's side and patted him lightly.

"Old man, don't get angry!" Old Liu was in a hurry, but he didn't expect the old man to react so strongly.

"Father..." Boss Liu on the side was also in a hurry. Seeing that his face turned red from coughing, he quickly took off the water bag hanging on his body and gave him a mouthful. Calm down.

"Old man, are you alright?" Old Liu asked with lingering fear, his wife is the backbone of their family, so nothing will happen.

"Mr. Liu, let me tell you what's good about you." The old man Liu was really angry, and he didn't even shout at the old woman, but he couldn't say anything more when he looked at the worried look of the old wife, so he sighed and said It's not for their family.

"Old man, I know what you mean, but I will do it again. We old things are fine. The loess has been buried up to the neck. It's a pity to die, but the children can't. Their lives have just begun. I don't want to. I want them to live, even if it's stealing or robbing, as long as they can survive."

Speaking of this, the always strong old Liu's eyes are red, as long as the child can live, it doesn't matter if she is a villain.

Hearing this, the eyes of the two sons and daughter-in-law also turned red.

The daughters-in-law are grateful to the mother-in-law for one thing. Although the mother-in-law has a bad reputation outside, she is mean and likes to take advantage of it, and she always sets the rules in front of them, but whose mother-in-law is not like this, at least the mother-in-law did not treat them harshly.

Even in such a difficult time like now, the mother-in-law does not have it. Both adults and children in the family eat the same food, even the portion is the same.

To be honest, along the way, I saw a lot of people who sold their wives and daughters for a few liters of grain, and what's more... Thinking of the horror in the eyes of the two of them, compared with them, their parents-in-law are already much better.

Old man Liu was only in a moment of anxiety, seeing his old wife's eyes turned red and saying that he didn't feel sorry would be a lie. They have been married for decades, and although the old wife has many problems, they are true to them.
