Chapter 75

Sure enough, as soon as I slept until dawn, nothing happened, but when I woke up in the morning, there was a lot of noise.

The reason was that the old Mrs. An asked An Zihao to invite a doctor at dawn, but she only saw a doctor for her two sons, regardless of Liu Mei's life or death.

Liu Mei was severely beaten by Ge Mingyu and Yang Qiuju, her nose was bruised and her face was swollen, she couldn't straighten her waist, crying and howling.

"The money was earned by selling my daughter, and I was also beaten by those two sluts. Why don't you give me medical treatment? Doctor, give me a prescription first!"

Liu Mei cried and yelled.

His man, An Zicheng, also had a hostile expression on his face. He stood there without saying a word, but was ready to speak out.

As for her two sons, one is 15 years old and the other is [-] years old. They saw that their grandmother did not treat their mother's illness, and they knew that their mother was beaten by two aunts.

In a fit of anger, he picked up the wooden stick and beat the two aunts to vent his anger, hiding what they had beaten and calling for help.

An Qingming was 15 years old and already tall and tall. He was already the same size as An Zihao. The young man chased the two aunts with a wooden stick and beat them, and suddenly there was a commotion.

When the news of Lao An's family subsided, the bearded man also brought people over to get the iron pot.

Li Zheng came forward to return the iron pot, and when he was about to leave, Xia Qiyue had someone distribute two more cornbread to each of them.

Now there are about [-] left on her side, but they are also packed in two cotton bags, plus fifty catties of big balls, she has nothing to do with it.

But without waiting for her to worry, the villagers volunteered to carry all her luggage, and she didn't even have to push her two children.

"Sister Qiyue, walk lightly, we've carried all this luggage for you! You'll be strong after eating!"

Simple peasants can't speak, but they know that there is a reason to repay their kindness.

Seeing the empty hands of her younger brothers and sisters, Xia Qiyue was quite moved. Although she did a good deed by feeding the villagers, she also had some selfish intentions.

And because of this good deed she did, the paperwork for the separation of the family was easily obtained, and she gave her a good beating to vent her anger.

As for Lao An's family who were left behind, at this moment, except for the old couple, everyone was sick, and Dafang's two sons were also beaten more or less severely.

Although An Zikang and An Zihang's wounds looked serious from the outside, they were actually skin traumas that didn't affect their walking at all, so they still walked behind the team with difficulty.

But An Qingling was being carried by An Zihao. Only Ge Mingyu hugged her two-year-old son bitterly. Originally, her leg injury was not healed. Became her, the most difficult journey along the way.

After walking for about half a day, we arrived at Maoshan Town at noon when the sun was at its hottest.

At first glance, the entrance of Maoshan Town is like a bottle mouth, surrounded by two winding mountains. Unless you climb the mountains, you can only pass through Maoshan Town.

Xia Qiyue found that there were quite a few people sitting at the entrance of the town, and they all seemed to be fleeing refugees, all with yellow and thin faces, but they all built simple log cabins with wood, and it seemed that it was not a day or two.

Li Zheng hurriedly put down his luggage and went to inquire with those people.

After coming back, there was a joyful expression on his face, and he told everyone that the guardian daughter of Maoshan Town gave porridge once a day in the morning.

So those people settled in this town, lived on a meal of porridge every day, and didn't want to go any further.

In turn, after discussing with the patriarch, he decided to stay here for a while like those people, so as to avoid any accidents on the way to the capital. If it rains, it is better to return to Liulin County from here than to return from the capital. closer.

The autumn tiger is very scary, no worse than Xia Tian. Everyone squinted their eyes in heat. After hearing the decision of the patriarch, they rushed to take a seat, and then they went up the mountain to get some wood and came back like those people who escaped from famine before. Put up a shed, simply build it, and live temporarily.

However, some smiles finally appeared on everyone's faces, which were not less than those from last night's full stomach.

At least after running around for so long, there is always a place to rest, and there is a meal of porridge a day to keep them alive, which is already the best thing for them.

The people who came before lined up one by one at the foot of the mountain on the left, and Lizheng took the people from Shanbei Zhuangzi to find a place a little away from them, and rested on the right side facing them.

After the people in Shanbei Zhuangzi got the order to choose the location, they started to prepare to build a shed, because they felt that they would definitely stay here for a few more days. It was too hot during the day and too cold at night, so it was necessary to build a shed. .

The strong men from almost every household followed Lizheng up the mountain to cut firewood, and Xia Xinghe also went, but he was so young that he couldn't carry much wood at a time.

Fortunately, the people of An Youde consciously got wood for them first and built a shed.

Back against the city wall, prop up the left and right fronts, and put a little thinner wood on top.

The men from the farmer's family can more or less do some carpentry work, and when Carpenter Gao saw that he was helping them, he took the initiative to come over to help, and it was done before dark.

"Sister, I saw that Shanxi Zhuangzi is right!" Xia Qiyue was observing her freshly baked shed, and her younger sister Xia Jiuyue whispered in her ear.

Xia Qiyue followed her sister's line of sight, and as expected, she could still recognize some people in Shanxi Zhuangzi, and there was the figure of Lin Lizheng.

"Don't worry about it! You have already separated from the old house, so don't worry about it!"

Xia Jiuyue didn't think so. She knew her grandma, and she also knew a few aunts. If they found out that their siblings hadn't died of starvation and thirst, they would definitely be suspicious and ask around.

If they find out about the fate of the eldest sister, it will be no worse than the old An's family.

"Big sister, I'm worried..." Xia Jiuyue hesitated to speak, she knew that the big sister could understand, she didn't want to say too much, so the two little ones would worry about it.

"Second sister, don't worry, we have separated a long time ago, what are you afraid of them doing?"

Xia Xinghe answered the words angrily, he felt that the second sister was too timid, worried about this and that.

The eldest sister is still the best, he liked the way of cutting people so much last night, so he followed suit a lot.

"What do you know? Didn't eldest sister and Lao An's family have to spend so much effort to separate the paperwork? If grandma and the others are also opposite, maybe they will come with us without a separation, then it will be troublesome!"

Xia Jiuyue was still a little worried and thought a lot, and what she said made sense.

"Then what should we do?" Xia Xinghe was frightened by his second sister, and looked towards the opposite side with some fear in his eyes, trying to see if the people from the old house were on the other side.

"Instead of worrying about things that didn't happen, you two should spread out the bedding quickly, so that you don't have to sleep on the cold floor at night. Even though it's just a simple wooden bed, it's better than the cold floor! Hurry up!"

Xia Qiyue directed the two younger brothers and sisters to work, telling them not to discuss any further, it was scary.

 Babies, let me ask you a question, has it been too long since we fled famine?Do you want Xia Qiyue and the others to escape to the capital or return the same way?
