Farm widows have space, pick up a treasure on the way to escape

Chapter 3
After hearing what she said, the others didn't say anything. In this world, whether you can survive or not depends entirely on your own destiny.

"In that case, let's all go to bed early. The boss and the second will take turns keeping watch. Remember to inform everyone if anything happens."

The only two middle-aged men in the family were the eldest and the second, and they were the ones keeping watch all the way, so there was no objection to this.

There was hay on the ground, which was much better than the previous few nights spent in the wild.

Several adults lay outside to protect a group of children, then took out the quilts they brought from home to cover them, and fell asleep like that.

Concerned that her grandson was weak, Ms. Sun took a special look at the dog when she got up at night, only to find that the dog was no longer as sick as before, and his body temperature had dropped a lot. His face was flushed and he looked sleepy. Get the fragrance.

Sure enough, it's different to have your own mother by your side to take care of you.

Mrs. Sun nodded with satisfaction. When she saw the white thing on the dog's forehead, she wanted to take it off for him, but seeing that the child was sleeping soundly, she refrained from doing it.

Everyone got up at dawn. Mrs. Yu and Mrs. Qin were busy getting some food, while Mrs. Sun and He Jiuniang took a group of children out to let the water flow.

The man on the ground woke up, his eyes widening in disbelief as if he had discovered something important.

"Master, are you awake? Do you feel uncomfortable?"

Remembering He Jiuniang's words and thinking that this person had an unusual identity, Old Man Lu's attitude was extremely gentle.

Qin Jian was just wondering when a smiling old face suddenly appeared in front of him. He subconsciously tried to draw the sword from his waist, but found that his sword was missing.

This action startled Old Man Lu. After reacting, Qin Jian stood up and clasped his fists and said, "I'm sorry, I offended you so much, but I hope Haihan."

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter," Old Man Lu said cheerfully, "It's not easy for everyone these days. It was my third daughter-in-law who saved you."

An old face wrinkled up with a smile, and it was time to write the word "repay the favor" on the face.

Qin Jian looked in the direction pointed by Old Man Lu and saw He Jiuniang coming back with her son after urinating. The mother and son didn't know what they said, both of them were smiling.

Three years of drought had killed countless people. Along the way, Qin Jian had seen all kinds of people, but he had never seen anyone smiling so happily.

Looking at this family, it's obvious that they came out to escape. It's not easy for them to laugh so happily after they have fallen into this state.

"Qin Jian thanks my sister-in-law for saving my life."

Although Qin Jian felt that this woman looked a few years younger than him, there was no other title that was more appropriate than this.

He Jiuniang nodded seemingly casually: "It's just a small effort. If you really want to thank me, why not show some sincerity."

Qin Jian's movement of holding his fists froze for a moment, but he didn't expect this woman to be so direct.

"It should be!"

Qin Jian touched his body and took out his money bag. He only took out a small piece of broken silver and kept it for himself. The rest was given to He Jiuniang.

Fortunately, the place where he was unconscious was relatively remote, otherwise if he met other refugees, he would probably have his pants stripped off.

He Jiuniang weighed it up, and she should have dozens of taels, but she was not satisfied. If she wanted money, she would have just taken it on the road. What she wanted was to use his identity to find a place to settle down as soon as possible. But now it seems that this idea seems to have failed.

Even so, the honest Lu family still felt that they had gone too far in repaying a favor.

"I'm not sure about something, please give me some advice from my sister-in-law."

After thinking about it, Qin Jian finally spoke. He Jiuniang raised her eyebrows, guessing what he was going to ask, so she nodded: "You tell me." poison?"

The first time he woke up, he found that the poison in his body was gone. If he looked closely at his fingertips, he could see some pinpricks. It was obvious that he had received help from an expert.

Although the woman in front of him looked like an ordinary peasant woman at first glance, he always felt that this woman was something special.

"I don't know," He Jiuniang shook her head, "I just gave you some water."

The Lu family originally thought that the third daughter-in-law had gained some great abilities after her death. They all stared with wide eyes. After hearing her explanation, it made sense.

Qin Jian frowned in disappointment. Who could have saved him?
Thinking that he still had important things to do, he couldn't get too entangled, so he turned around and said to everyone: "I still have important things to do, so I won't stay any longer. We will meet again in the mountains and rivers. Let's say goodbye!"

After saying that, he disappeared in front of the Lu family the next moment.

"This young master is really awesome. He hasn't even brought his sword yet!"

Old Man Lu couldn't help but smack his lips and was about to say a few words when he turned around and saw He Jiuniang pouring out all the white money in her purse to count. Her eyes lit up and she hurriedly went over to take a look.

Darling, that’s a lot of silver!The Lu family has never seen so much silver in their lives!
There are three large silver ingots worth ten taels, two small silver ingots worth five taels, and some broken silver, totaling about 50 taels in total.

After He Jiuniang counted them carefully, she handed them to Sun: "Mom, please keep it."

But Ms. Sun confiscated it: "You saved the person, so you keep the money yourself. The dog is not in good health, and there will be many places to use the money in the future."

"Mom, our family is not divided. My wife and dog have been taken care of by my family these years. This money should be put in the public house and used by everyone together. Just take it."

He Jiuniang forcefully handed the money bag to Mrs. Sun. She did it deliberately in front of everyone.

The original owner didn’t have a man in this house. In the past, the eldest and second son were busy working in the fields, and the dog was weak and sick and could drink the decoction as water. Although the people in the first and second bedrooms were kind and easy to get along with, they would inevitably have complaints in private. Now that she is putting the money in the public house for use in person, it can be regarded as an explanation to the second room of the first house.

It's not just luck that Mrs. Sun can manage a house in an orderly manner at her age. After thinking about it, she accepted 40 taels and gave the remaining [-] taels to He Jiuniang.

"In this case, the money will be paid as originally planned. The public will receive [-]%, and you will keep the remaining [-]%."

After saying that, he turned around and said to the second room of the first house: "You have all seen that the third wife got this money. In the past, this money would have been enough for our whole family for more than ten years. Nowadays, the world is difficult, and in the past In the end, it might even be our life-saving money. Although the third brother is not at home, the third brother has also contributed to this family. My wife, I don’t allow you to have any other thoughts in private. "

The eldest brother and the second child immediately said that since the third brother was not here, it was their duty as brothers to take care of their younger siblings and nephews.

The eldest daughter-in-law, Yu Shi, said: "We all understand what mother said. We are a family and we should help each other. What's more, if my brothers and sisters suffer such a disaster, their blessings are yet to come!"

The second daughter-in-law Qin also nodded: "Even if mother didn't say anything, we knew it in our hearts. The third brother and sister came back with food and drink and so much money. This saved the lives of our whole family. We How can we not be kind to their mother and son?"

Several children were listening and felt that the third aunt was so powerful and they must be nicer to Brother Gouer in the future.

The dog's fever has gone down quite a bit, but he still feels a little drowsy because he has been weak since he was a child. He fell asleep in his mother's arms since the adults started talking.

However, although he missed the excitement, he had a sweet dream, and he still had a smile on his lips when he fell asleep.

The Lu family didn't dare to delay, so they simply packed up and hurried on their way.

A few days ago, the dogs were weak and weighed down, and they were already far behind the large troops in the village. Now that the situation has improved, they have to catch up quickly, otherwise they may suffer more accidents.
