Chapter 28

Quan Qijin didn't know what his daughter-in-law was thinking, he just thought she was cheering him up, and immediately hugged her into his arms.

Yi Meng was taken aback, and was afraid of waking the child, so she could only whisper angrily: "What are you doing? You scared me."

"Hey, daughter-in-law, you are so kind!"

Quan Quanjin kissed his daughter-in-law, and then let go of her: "Okay, soak your feet, you must be tired after a busy day."

Yi Meng was also polite, and directly put her feet into the basin.

The water is a little hot, but this is the best way to relieve fatigue.

This night, let alone the Qi family, even other families in the village were snoring.

No way, I've been busy all day and I'm really tired.

At dawn the next day, Qi Zheng woke up.

Qi Chengshi also got up immediately, but was stopped by Qi Zheng: "What are you doing up, it's so early, and everyone is woken up by some noise."

"Then what are you doing up so early?"

After hearing this, Qi Cheng lay down again, but watched his old man put on his shoes worriedly.

Qi Zheng sighed: "I'll go to the village to take a look."

Although he was quite tired yesterday, Qi Zheng had something on his mind and couldn't sleep anymore, so he wanted to go out for a walk.

He has lived in this village all his life, he has been here since he was born, and now he has to leave suddenly, he is really reluctant!
Even at the moment when he decided to flee the famine, Qi Zheng wanted him to stay.

But he knew that if he chose to stay, the children in the family would definitely not go either.

Instead of arguing again at that time, why not choose to give in yourself!
As soon as Qi Cheng heard this, he knew what the old man was thinking, and got up after thinking about it.

Seeing the old man looking over, Qi Cheng said: "I can't sleep anymore, I'll follow you out for a walk."

"Ah."

Qi Zheng didn't stop him.

The old couple walked out of their yard lightly, and then walked side by side on the small road in the village.

Although Qi Cheng married into Yongping Village, he has lived here for decades.

Not to mention that every tree and every grass is familiar, but there are too many memories.

She is reluctant to leave now.

The two walked out of the village and walked directly towards their field.

At this time, the sky was only getting brighter, and there was a layer of water mist on the field, which looked like a fairyland, very beautiful.

It's just that the air humidity in the morning is high, and the grass on the ground is wet, making it a little slippery to walk on.

"Ouch!"

Qi Cheng didn't pay attention, slipped his foot and tilted his body.

Although he didn't fall, he was also taken aback.

Qi Zheng also reached out and grabbed the old wife's hand as soon as he found out.

"It's okay, just slipped."

Qi Cheng shook his head and was about to withdraw his hand as he spoke.

But it twitched, and there was no twitch.

The old man's hand as hard as an iron lump just held her hand, and walked forward step by step without looking back.

"You, what are you doing holding my hand? Let go!"

Qi Cheng was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly looked around to make sure that only the two of them were there, and then said angrily: "I'm not afraid of being seen by others, I will laugh at you later."

"Don't be afraid, you are my daughter-in-law. I held this hand at the beginning, and then I will hold it for the rest of my life. Anyone who likes to laugh will make a joke."

Qi Zheng said this without looking back, and at the same time tightened his hands.

Qi Cheng felt that his hand was being clenched even tighter, and there was a hint of God's will in his heart.

Although my face is a little hot, this feeling... is really too warm.

The old man of his family doesn't seem to be very close to people on weekdays, but Qi Cheng knows that this man is his reliance in this life.

Even if it is a son, it can't compare to this bad old man.

The two old men just walked hand in hand between the fields, at a very slow speed, as if they were walking their way of life.

In the misty morning light, two old men dressed in coarse cloth walked hand in hand. The scene was inexplicably touching.

When the old couple returned to the village, they found that there were already people walking around in the village, so Qi Cheng hurriedly withdrew his hands.

Qi Zheng wanted to catch him again, but his old wife didn't give him a chance.

"Hurry up and go home! I don't know if those little bastards are up or not. One or two, if they really escaped from the famine, how can there be a chance for them to sleep like this!"

Qi Cheng began to chatter again, but Qi Zheng didn't find it annoying, instead he followed his old woman back home with a smile.

Someone saw the two of them on the road and just said hello without saying anything else.

We will be leaving the day after tomorrow, everyone is busy organizing things as much as possible, for fear of missing something.

In the blink of an eye, it was the third night.

There are already five more wooden carts in the yard of Qi's family, and the area of ​​each wooden cart is not small.

It is 1.2 meters wide and 1.6 meters long.

Such a wooden cart can be paved with things as a temporary bed board.

There are a lot of cans on each wooden cart, and each can is separated by dry straw to reduce shock and collision as much as possible.

Inside the jars are the grains, seasonings, and even cloth and needlework.

The jar was placed in the center of the trolley, and the surrounding area was empty. Back to put bedding and the like, and the children at home could also be placed.

By the light of the fire, Qi Manman ran around with his brothers.

While running, Qi Manman suddenly stopped, blinking his big eyes and looking in one direction.

Qi Manman's voice suddenly disappeared from the original joyful laughter, and almost everyone in the family noticed it immediately.

Qi Cheng hurriedly asked, "Where is Man Baoer?"

"Mother, Man Baoer is here!"

Yi Meng was the first to see the girl standing on the open space staring in a certain direction, and hurried forward: "My girl, what are you looking at?"

While asking, Yi Meng looked in the direction her daughter was looking at.

Except for the firewood shed in the corner, it was so dark that I couldn't see anything.

For a while, many scary pictures appeared in Yimeng's mind.

It is said that children can see some unclean things, and Man Baoer can even get space for herself, so wouldn't she be able to see more?

In just three or two breaths, Yi Meng broke out in a cold sweat from fright.

At this moment, Qi Manman pointed to the firewood shed, and said in a childlike voice, "Chai Chai also takes the car."

"what?"

Yi Meng didn't react for a while.

The rest of the Qi family who rushed over at this time also heard this, and all of them were puzzled.

Qi Cheng walked up to Qi Manman, knelt down and asked, "My dear granddaughter, tell grandma why you need to take a car?"

"Chai Chai! Chai Chai for cooking!"

Qi Manman pointed to the firewood shed, and said seriously: "It won't work if it rains, so you have to take a car."

As soon as this word came out, the audience was silent.

Everyone subconsciously thought of what the child said about fleeing famine.

If she hadn't mentioned it, the next day would not have changed from selling grain to looking for news, and there would have been no such thing as the village deciding to flee famine later.

Now that it is raining and loading firewood into the car, does it mean that there will be rainy days on the road and there is no way to collect firewood?
