Chapter 1 Dressed as a vicious little stepmother

"The bad woman seems to have run out of energy!"

"Then should we bury her or just leave?"

"She is so bad and wants to sell her little sister for money. It is God's will to die. Eye! Let's go directly, who cares about her!"

Several childish voices rang in my ears.

Qiao Huaping had a splitting headache and his eyelids weighed over a thousand pounds.

She only vaguely remembered that when she was supporting local work as the leader of the special agent team, she died trying to save a few children.

What's going on with these sounds now?

Suddenly, a massive amount of memories poured into Qiao Huaping's mind.

It turned out that she had passed through the body of an ancient stepmother who treated her stepsons and stepdaughters harshly. Not only did the original owner treat several children who had no father or mother, but she even wanted to give the youngest stepdaughter to her while the whole village was fleeing for famine. Sell ââit for some money and run away!

As a result, the original owner was chased by his stepsons on the way to sell the child. He stepped on the air and fell down the hillside to his death. She, the leader of the special agent team with the same surname, came through!

After clearing his thoughts, Qiao Huaping cursed in his heart. After a lot of effort, he struggled to open his eyes.

The weather is so hot that people's throats are a bit smokey.

Four children in ragged clothes were supporting each other, wading in waist-high grass, and were about to leave. However, they saw the lifeless woman sitting up slowly in the grassy beach!

"Ghost!"

the four children screamed, hugging each other and shivering. The second

child, Mei Qingyu, is seven years old this year and has always been bold and cautious. He first looked at Qiao Huaping's feet, his little face stretched out, and he said in a deep voice:

"Bad women have shadows, not ghosts!"

The other children said Look, it's true, the sun is blazing in the sky, and although the shadows on the grassy beach are a little blurry, they are real.

The grandmother in the village said that ghosts have no shadows.

All the children breathed a sigh of relief.

Qiao Huaping was sitting on the ground. The injury on her forehead still ached a little, and her whole body was in severe pain.

She squinted her eyes and looked at the children with dirty faces and ragged clothes in front of her. They were leaning against one place and looking at her with vigilance and hatred, and she felt that something was wrong.

Don't panic when something happens, think about how to deal with it first for the best solution.

However, the way she squints her eyes and thinks about things with a blank face is really like the way the original owner used to be evil and wanted to treat several children harshly.

The oldest child, nine-year-old Mei Qingyao, the eldest son of the Mei family, immediately stood in front of his younger brothers and sisters and shouted: "Bad woman, if you have bad ideas again, I will make you look good!"

Qiao Huaping He squinted his eyes, groped in the grassy beach with his hand supporting his body, and found a sharp-edged stone!

This body was covered in injuries from rolling down the hillside. Qiao Huaping endured the pain and threw the stone at the four children without hesitation!

Mei Qingyao subconsciously hugged the youngest sister tightly.

However, the sharp-edged stone fell heavily at the feet of the four children, and something splashed out!

The four children looked down subconsciously, only to see a snake creeping up and lurking at their feet. The bad woman threw a stone at them and smashed their heads to pieces!

The snake had black and white rings on its body, shimmering with fine light, and the children's faces turned pale in fright.

They are all children who grew up in the mountains and fields. They recognized it at a glance. This is the venomous snake Bungara!

If you are bitten by this snake, you are basically dead!

Qiao Huaping slowly stood up and walked towards the frightened children.

Mei Qingyao was very responsible as an elder brother. He protected his younger brothers and sisters and looked at Qiao Huaping warily: "What do you want to do!"

What evil plans is this vicious woman planning?

Qiao Huaping ignored him, slowly knelt down and picked up the dead body of the Bungara snake with its head smashed.

There was a creek not far away. Qiao Huaping endured the pain with an expressionless face, found a sharp stone, disemboweled the remaining intact body of the bungara snake, skinned it, and cleaned it. Clean and tidy.

The children of the Mei family didn't know what Qiao Huaping was up to, so they didn't go far and looked at Qiao Huaping warily not far away.

After Qiao Huaping disposed of the body of the snake, he picked up some firewood and started a fire. He cut the snake into pieces with sharp stones, skewered them on the wood and roasted them.

The unique burnt aroma of barbecue spread quickly.

It was very quiet everywhere. Apart from the crackling of the fire, Qiao Huaping could even hear the swallowing sounds of several children.

Qiao Huaping chuckled inwardly and said nothing.

She knew that she was a vicious stepmother in the minds of several children, and her aggressive approach would only make the children more wary.

The roasted snake meat was cooked quickly, and the aroma penetrated right into the nose, enough to bring out the gluttons in people's stomachs.

Qiao Huaping inserted the other four pieces of roasted snake meat into the pile of ashes, ignored it, and started to chew on the roasted snake meat in her hand. It was delicious!

Hey, people are as good as iron rice and steel. Only when you are full can you work without panic!

Mei Qinghuang, the third eldest among the four children, and Mei Qingyu, the second eldest, are twins, but their personalities are completely different.

He looked longingly at the skewers of roasted snake meat stuck in the ashes, swallowed, and tugged at the corner of his second brother's clothes pitifully: "Brother Yu, this smells so good."

"The bungara snake is poisonous." His second brother Mei Qingyu frowned as if he were a grown-up, and emphasized to his twin brother, "Don't think about eating everything. What's more, that woman is very vicious. Who knows what bad things she can do?" The idea."

The eldest brother, Mei Qingyao, felt that his second brother was right, and nodded: "Maybe he poured out our medicine and sold it all?"

"But..." Mei Qinghuang took a sneak look at the meal. Qiao Huaping, whose mouth was oily, swallowed, "She is eating it herself..."

The youngest sister Mei Qingying is only five years old this year. She stood aside and watched Qiao Huaping eating snake meat for a long time. For a long while, she didn't say a word. She just grabbed one of the four skewers of roasted snake meat stuck in the ashes of the vegetation, and bit off a large piece of meat with a loud slurp.

She was so hungry!

This time the three brothers were quite frightened.

"Little sister!"

The three broken children were all frightened and looked like they were about to cry.

Qiao Huaping glanced at the children and spoke lazily: "The venom of the bungara snake is only stored in the venom sac on the head. This part of the body is not poisonous, and it is even powerful - you don't want to eat it?" Come on, the village chief has informed you today that the border is becoming more and more chaotic, and the whole village will have to move away to the south tomorrow. If you donât eat some meat to gain strength, will you take your head to escape tomorrow? "

Previous chapter: â1. Chapter 1: Dressed as a vicious little stepmotherNext chapter: â3. Chapter 3: These two unlucky kids are so brave.

Chapter 2 Is this the legendary space?

Qiao Huaping has already thought about it.

Since this body is the stepmother of these four children, she has passed through this body and cannot leave the four children alone, so she can take these four little ones and flee together.

Mei Qingyu gritted her teeth. Although she didn't know what evil intentions this vicious bad woman had in mind, she was right. If she didn't eat enough, she would not be able to keep up with the team when she fled tomorrow, and would be left behind. Can be a dead word!

"Just eat!" Mei Qingyu gritted his teeth, as if he was sinking his boat.

The little sister has already eaten it. Even if this vicious woman really has some conspiracy, the four brothers and sisters will die together!

Mei Qinghuang, the third child who has always been greedy, heard the second brother's words and quickly pulled out the remaining three skewers of roasted snake meat from the ashes.

He swallowed and attentively gave a bunch to his eldest brother Mei Qingyao, then gave a bunch to his second brother Mei Qingyu, and finally kept a small bunch and ate it happily.

Fragrant, so fragrant!

Mei Qinghuang almost burst into tears.

He has never had a bite of meat since his father died!

The snake meat roasted by this vicious woman was actually more delicious than all the barbecues he remembered!

Qiao Huaping had already finished his skewer of roasted snake meat. She glanced at the poor children who were eating vigorously and their mouths were dripping with oil, and she hummed in her heart.

She endured the pain all over her body and went to the low-lying area near the water in Caotanzi to search for a while. After a while, she found ten small snake eggs.

Snake eggs are small and delicate, about the same size as quail eggs. Although they are not big enough to fit between teeth, they are high-quality nutritional protein and can be used at critical moments.

Qiao Huaping took the ten snake eggs into a pocket with the hem of her dress, glanced at the four children, and saw that all four children had almost eaten, and walked back slowly, minding their own business.

As she expected, the four children hesitated for a while and then followed.

Probably because of eating barbecue, my body feels much stronger. Qiao Huaping has always been someone who can endure pain. She worked hard and walked back to her and her four children's "home" - two shabby thatched huts at the foot of the mountain without stopping.

Qiao Huaping put the ten snake eggs away, and looking at the thatched house with four bare walls, he felt like cursing her mother.

In fact, they lived in a spacious and bright tile-roofed house at first. But after the child's father died, the original owner said that he had no money to raise the children, so he sold the spacious and bright tile-roofed house and moved his four children to this shabby house. in that thatched house.

As for the money - Qiao Huaping sneered twice, the original owner was just stupid!

Most of the money spent on selling the house was deceived by the parents' sweet talk!

At the moment,

Qiao Huaping, the family's belongings, took out a handful of coins from his arms with an expressionless expression.

I counted only twenty-three.

With only twenty-three copper coins, it would be nothing more than a dream to take four children through this escape route.

I can only find ways to make money on the road.

Qiao Huaping endured the pain all over her body and went to the kitchen to have a look, and she probably had an idea.

The first thing to sort out is definitely the pots and pans.

I don't know how many days it will take to go south, so I must take these cooking guys with me.

In addition, there was half a jar of extremely rough coarse salt grains placed next to the stove, and a few strings of dried red peppers hung on the window beams. These were all good things, so Qiao Huaping naturally packed them away.

In addition, there is a small half bag of brown rice piled in the corner of the kitchen - yes, that's right, this is the last ration for their family.

Qiao Huaping thought calmly, if it really depends on this thing, why go to the south? Going to the west is just as good.

She wandered around the house twice more, and it actually made her pull out some more things.

A rusty sickle, a long hemp rope hanging from a wooden beam, a messy pile of linoleum in the corner, and a wooden longbow with a broken bowstring.

The four children stood in the yard, warily watching Qiao Huaping coming in and out of the house.

"Second brother, what is that vicious woman up to?"

"I don't know, let's see first."

"Brother Yao, Brother Yu, if that vicious woman still wants to sell my little sister, we will fight her to the death!"

Qiao Huaping was busy at the moment and had no time to pay attention to those little brats.

Among the things she had dug out earlier, the one that interested her the most was actually the long bow with a broken bowstring.

This should be the belongings of these brats and their father.

Qiao Huaping planned to dismantle the bow string, find someone to buy some beef tendon, and make a new bow.

For food on the road, we have to rely on this bow.

But Qiao Huaping never thought that when he took off the bowstring, his hand would get a small cut for some reason.

She only shook it, and then continued to work on unraveling the bowstring.

Qiao Huaping didn't notice that a drop of blood slowly flowed into the jade ornament on her left wrist.

The jade ornaments looked like low-quality jade. The red thread was woven through a simple bracelet. It was not worth a few pennies. The original owner had worn it since he was a child.

And Qiao Huaping, at the moment when the blood and jade merged, he felt like the world was spinning. When he opened his eyes again, what he saw was no longer a dilapidated thatched house, but a strange place shrouded in fog.

This strange place seemed very vast, but most of the place was covered in mist, making it difficult to see its true appearance.

Only the center of the fog was clearly visible.

In the center of the fog, there is a stalactite hanging in the air.

The tip of the stalactite is dotted with a drop of water, which is about to fall.

Under the stalactite, there is a stone bowl hanging, apparently to catch the drop of water flowing down from the stalactite.

She understood immediately.

Is this the legendary "space"?

Logically speaking, the stuff coming out of this stalactite should also be good stuff?

At this moment, the drop of water on the tip of the stalactite finally dripped and fell into the stone bowl.

Following Qiao Huaping's thoughts, the drop of water in the stone bowl flew straight up from the stone bowl according to Qiao Huaping's thoughts, flew towards Qiao Huaping's consciousness, and instantly merged into her soul. .

It seemed that the whole soul was trembling with this drop of water, feeling extremely comfortable.

The pain that he had been holding back disappeared in an instant.

Itâs really great stuff!

Qiao Huaping had another thought.

She actually escaped from that mysterious space in an instant and returned to reality!

Qiao Huaping didn't have time to think too much, and subconsciously looked at the four cubs who were watching her eagerly.

There was nothing strange about the four cubs. Even when Qiao Huaping looked over, Mei Qingyao, who had a somewhat fiery temper, subconsciously protected her younger siblings, glared at her with disgust, and said warily: "What bad idea are you planning again!" "

Qiao Huaping calmly looked back and understood.

Although she had spent a lot of time in that mysterious space, in reality, in the eyes of other people, nothing had changed.

Qiao Huaping turned his back and pretended to continue repairing the broken bow, but quietly picked up a stone on the ground.

She had a thought in her mind.

The stone in my hand really disappeared!

And in the mysterious space deep in the consciousness, on the ground near the stalactite, that stone suddenly appeared!

Qiao Huaping's mind moved again, and the stone in the space appeared in her hand again!

Now Qiao Huaping was sure that this space could indeed be used for storage and retrieval!

Qiao Huaping showed a bright smile.

However, before the smile fully bloomed, she could smell something sour and smelly at the tip of her nose...

Chapter 3 These two unlucky kids are so brave!

Qiao Huaping took a sniff, and her expression suddenly changed.

This smell comes from her body!

"I'm going out and I'll be back soon!"

Qiao Huaping looked ugly. He grabbed the tattered bow and cut a section of the hemp rope with a sickle, and then hurried out of the small yard.

"Second brother, tell me, what is that vicious woman doing?"

"I don't know, let's just watch."

Mei Qingyu paused and looked at Mei Qingying, who had been silent, and the look in his eyes softened instantly: " "Little sister, are you still hungry? Can my second brother cook you some wild vegetable porridge?"

Mei Qingying shook her head and said intermittently: "Yingying, you are not hungry. Let's eat on the way." "

Mei Qingyu felt so weak that he said to Mei Qingyao: "Brother, you stay and look after Yingying, and my third brother and I will dig some wild vegetables."

"Okay!" Mei Qingyao clenched his fists, feeling a little self-conscious. Blame, "We all went looking for food before, so that vicious woman took advantage of the opportunity and almost caused my little sister to be sold - I will definitely protect Yingying this time!" The

three brothers divided up. After finishing work, brothers Mei Qingyu and Mei Qinghuang went up the mountain carrying bamboo baskets.

At this time, Qiao Huaping found a secluded place in the back mountain and took off his clothes.

There was a layer of sour and unpleasant stains all over her body, which was unbearable to look at and smell.

Qiao Huaping couldn't bear it and plunged into the creek.

It was summer and the stream was not too cold.

Qiao Huaping took a vigorous shower for half an hour before she managed to wash away all the stains on her body. She felt that her whole body was filled with light energy from the inside out.

It was as if the ailments in the body and soul were dispelled as the stain seeped out.

I feel refreshed and refreshed like never before!

It was even said that her five senses - she was keenly aware of them, and they all improved significantly!

The water droplets flowing down from the stalactites in the space are indeed excellent things!

Qiao Huaping simply washed his clothes again and put them on while wet. Anyway, the weather was hot and they dried in a while.

Her whole body was filled with endless energy, and she dexterously attached the hemp rope to the long bow without a string, planning to go hunting in the mountains.

She first used the stream to sharpen her sickle on a stone by the stream. Then she used the sickle to cut out a few pointed branches and used them as arrows. After being prepared, she entered the mountain.

This mountain is a wild mountain without a name.

However, among the local people, this mountain has some evil qualities.

But in the eyes of Qiao Huaping, the leader of the modern special agent team, the terrain of this mountain is just a bit weird, and the magnetic field is slightly disordered. Even experienced hunters with many years of experience have difficulty finding their way, and it is especially easy to get lost in the mountain. .

None of this is a problem for Qiao Huaping.

She carried a long bow and went deep into the forest, carefully distinguishing the traces left by animals in the forest. Soon, she found a rabbit.

Qiao Huaping held his breath and concentrated, bow and arrow, looking for the best time to attack.

Uh-huh!

She let go, and the arrow flew away like a meteor!

The branch penetrated half of the rabbit's leg!

It wasn't that Qiao Huaping's shot was wrong, she just wanted to verify one thing - Qiao Huaping stepped forward and tried to put the injured rabbit with its last breath into the space.

However, space showed no response.

She broke the rabbit's neck without blinking or taking a breath.

Qiao Huaping tried again to put the rabbit's body into the space - well, it was no problem this time.

The rabbit's body appeared on the land near the stalactites.

Qiao Huaping looked thoughtful.

It seems that this space cannot hold living things.

The newly caught rabbit is quite fat, but it is estimated that it will only be enough for them to eat for a day.

Still have to hunt some more.

Qiao Huaping put her bow on her back and continued walking into the forest.

Probably because of the "evil reputation" of this wild forest, few people come to hunt in the forest on weekdays. Qiao Huaping got a lot during this trip. He hunted a total of three golden pheasants, two rabbits, and even one. Silly roe deer.

In addition, Qiao Huaping also picked up a lot of mushrooms, wild fruits, and even a wild ginseng that was not very old - she put all the edible and valuable things she came across in the space. .

After doing this, she breathed a sigh of relief.

At least I can survive for a while on the road to escape.

Even if they can't finish these things, they can trade them with others for food.

Just as Qiao Huaping was about to return home, he suddenly heard an intermittent cry for help in the air.

Qiao Huaping's expression suddenly changed.

Why does that voice sound so much like the unlucky third child in her family?

Qiao Huaping didn't waste any time, took off the bow on his back and ran quickly towards the direction of the sound.

As he approached, Qiao Huaping's expression changed.

She heard the sound of oohoo!

That voice clearly sounded like a leopard!

Looking closely, there were two little boys in a miserable state falling among the weeds in the dense forest.

If not her twins, who are they? !

Not far away, an adult leopard was staring at the two children!

How could these two unlucky kids dare to go so deep? Are you so unlucky to meet a leopard?

Qiao Huaping's scalp was numb.

If she had something handy, like a leopard, she wouldn't be afraid.

But right now, she only has a long bow with hemp rope as the string, arrows made of wood, and a sickle!

Don't panic when something happens!

Qiao Huaping took a deep breath, his eyes were as sharp as a knife, he bent his bow and arrow, but he shot it directly at the tree trunk beside the leopard!

Leopards, extremely keen animals, sense danger almost immediately.

It arched its body and looked cautiously towards Qiao Huaping.

Qiao Huaping didn't waste any time. After intimidating the leopard with her bluff, she directly took out a hare she had shot earlier from the space and threw it at the leopard!

The leopard jumped up, grabbed the bloody hare in its mouth, jumped up on the branches in the forest vigorously, and left.

Qiao Huaping took a breath.

She walked out of the dense forest and walked up to the embarrassed twins. She looked at them condescendingly and said, "Get up quickly. I'm sure some wild beasts will come over soon."

The two children, Mei Qingyu and Mei Qinghuang, were pale at the moment, and they were obviously still in shock.

Mei Qinghuang hugged his brother and shivered for a long time, and then he realized something - that woman who had always been vicious had somehow managed to drive the leopard away!

She saved the two brothers!

Mei Qing screamed and couldn't bear it anymore. She threw herself into Qiao Huaping's arms and burst into tears.

Qiao Huaping froze.

This poor kid...

it took a long while before she stiffly stroked Mei Qinghuang's back a few times.

Mei Qinghuang hugged Qiao Huaping's waist and cried uncontrollably. He was obviously frightened.

"If you cry again, it will be time to attract the leopard again." Qiao Huaping is not very good at comforting people, "Maybe it will attract the tiger. Which one do you like to be eaten by?"

Mei Qinghuang: "..."

He began to cry. He stopped, and when he came back to his senses, he realized that he was actually crying while holding the vicious woman in his arms!

Mei Qinghuang was almost electrocuted, and he ejected it. He wiped his hands on his clothes a few times, as if he couldn't accept the fact that he just held the vicious woman and cried non-stop.

Qiao Huaping tutted, "Little scumbag."

Mei Qingyu is different from the little scumbag Mei Qinghuang.

Since just now, he has been standing there with a pale face, just after recovering from the shock, but silently looking at Qiao Huaping.

Qiao Huaping knew that the second child was the calmest and smartest of the four children. She chose to communicate with Mei Qingyu: "Can you leave? Take your brother with you and let's go home quickly."

Mei Qingyu trembled slightly.

This vicious woman actually told him to go home?

...But it was this vicious woman who saved them twice today.

Mei Qingyu felt that she could not understand this vicious woman.

What kind of medicine is she selling in her gourd?

Mei Qingyu silently picked up the wild vegetables that had been scattered on the ground when they fell down, and put them all into the basket behind his back.

Mei Qinghuang's legs were still a little weak, but he also knew that he couldn't hold him back, so he gritted his teeth and followed his second brother to pick up wild vegetables.

"It's not easy to get out here." Mei Qingyu said in a hoarse voice, "The two of us came here chasing a rabbit. We got lost after entering the forest and walked for a long time and couldn't get out."

After all, he was just A seven-year-old child, there was a hint of uneasiness in his words.

Qiao Huaping didn't take this seriously.

"Follow me." Qiao Huaping only said this and walked forward.

The brothers Mei Qingyu and Mei Qinghuang looked at each other.

Mei Qinghuang was still a little uneasy and whispered: "Brother Yu..."

Mei Qingyu gritted his teeth and said: "Follow me."

If this vicious woman really wanted to kill them, she didn't have to fall from the leopard's mouth just now. Save them.

The two children supported each other and stumbled forward with Qiao Huaping.

Qiao Huaping walked quickly in front, stopping from time to time to wait for the two children.

When she walked out of the treacherous mountain forest, Mei Qingyu was still a little unbelievable.

Is it that simple?

Are they coming out now?

Qiao Huaping pointed to the looming thatched roof at the foot of the mountain not far away: "Okay, the rest of the way is much easier to walk. You can go back by yourself. I remembered that I left something in the forest. I have to go back and get it. "

Mei Qingyu's expression changed slightly. He wanted to say something, but he seemed unable to say it.

While hesitating, Qiao Huaping waved his hand carelessly: "Don't worry about me, I'm not like you two novices."

Mei Qingyu's expression changed again, and he held his brother's hand without looking back. Went directly down the mountain.

Qiao Huaping clicked her tongue, turned around and walked into the forest again.

It wasn't that there was anything else in the woods, it was just that she had to get some game from the space.

You can't hold it in front of the two children, exposing the space.

By the time Qiao Huaping returned to the thatched house carrying a golden pheasant that had been dead for a long time, Mei Qingyu was already cooking wild vegetables to a paste.

Seeing what Qiao Huaping was holding, the Mei brothers and sisters all opened their eyes wide.

Mei Qingyao, who was responsible for adding firewood to the stove, almost jumped up: "You don't know where to steal chickens, do you?!"

Qiao Huaping sneered: "Why are your eyes so hard to use at such a young age? See clearly that this is a house Chicken or pheasant?"

Mei Qingyao was choked by Qiao Huaping, speechless, and angrily filled the stove with firewood.

"I'm so tired of eating wild vegetables that I don't have enough energy to drive tomorrow. Let's have an extra meal tonight." Qiao Huaping didn't care about Mei Qingyao's anger at all. "We'll boil some water in a while and I'll feather the chicken."

Mei Qingyao subconsciously thought He said "I don't", but Qiao Huaping obviously had some prediction and said directly: "If it doesn't burn, we will all be hungry."

Mei Qingyao's refusal was immediately stuck in his throat.

He can stop eating, but what about his younger brothers and sisters?

Tomorrow the whole village will be moved, and they have to walk a long way. I heard that many people died of exhaustion and illness on the way out. If I don't have enough to eat tonight, what will I do tomorrow?

Mei Qingyao gritted his teeth and burned!

While Mei Qingyao was boiling water, Mei Qingyu hesitated for a moment, and then whispered to Mei Qingyao about Qiao Huaping rescuing them in the woods.

Mei Qingyao was so shocked that he dropped the firewood in his hand.

At first, he was a little scared. What if something happened to his two brothers in the woods? What should he do?

Secondly, I thought it was outrageous. Ever since their father died, the woman had been hitting and scolding them. She usually looked like she wished they would die. How could she risk her life to save Qingyu Qinghuang?

Mei Qingyu hesitated and whispered: "Brother, I think that woman seems to be different from before."

Mei Qingyao actually felt something.

He thought for a while: "That's not right. She wants to sell her little sister today. I don't know what kind of trick she is using to paralyze us?... Second brother, you have always been smart. You are so smart." Pay attention."

He clenched his fists, "If she dares to take advantage of my little sister again, I won't let her succeed even if I risk my life!"

Mei Qingyu nodded.

Not far away, Qiao Huaping, who could hear clearly because his five senses were strengthened, was also a little helpless.

Since she had inherited the sins of the original owner, she naturally had to bear them for him.

"Is the water ready?" Qiao Huaping asked loudly.

No one paid attention to her, but after a while, Mei Qingyao, who was extremely strong, came over with a large iron pot of boiling water.

Qiao Huaping scalded the golden pheasant with boiling water and quickly pulled off all the feathers.

Mei Qingying stood silently about half a foot away from Qiao Huaping, tilting her little head and watching.

Wherever Qiao Huaping went, she followed him from a distance.

The little girl is less than four years old, and she is extremely beautiful. Although she is wearing patchwork clothes, she has a pair of big eyes that are as bright and smooth as black pearls, and she has a small hair on her head, which makes people fall in love with her. very.

But Qiao Huaping wanted to tease her and let her get closer, but Mei Qingying was very wary and refused to get even half a step closer to Qiao Huaping.

Qiao Huaping simply ignored it.

She rolled up her sleeves and didn't use much seasoning. I pulled out a wild ginger tree from outside the house, sliced ââit and threw it into the pot. When it was finally out of the pot, I added a little salt and a big pot of fragrant chicken soup was ready.

The fragrant smell penetrated straight into the nose, even the most reserved second child Mei Qingyu was a little unable to walk.

Chapter 5: You donât understand the joy of harvest.

Qiao Huaping filled a bowl of chicken soup for herself, squatted in the courtyard, and ate happily with the bowl in hand.

While gnawing on the chicken legs, Qiao Huaping glanced at the four children who were still staring at her silently, and was amused: "What, don't tell me, I will have to treat you to every meal from now on? Hurry up? Eat it quickly."

She raised the chicken drumstick in her hand, "I have to do a lot of work tomorrow, and my physical strength is necessary, so I won't be polite to you if you don't eat the drumstick. It's over."

Mei Qingyu was silent for a while, then took the initiative to get a bowl, filled a bowl for Mei Qingying first, and put the remaining big chicken leg into Mei Qingying's bowl.

Mei Qingying pushed the small bowl: "Yingying, no. Here, brother, eat."

Mei Qingyu coaxed Mei Qingying: "Be good, little sister, you have to eat this to gain strength. You have to walk a long way tomorrow. It's a long way, what if you get sick?"

Mei Qingying tilted her head and thought for a moment. She didn't want to be a burden to her three brothers, and then she reached out and took the bowl.

The chicken soup was so fragrant that when the little girl took the bowl, she couldn't hold it back and took a big sip.

It was still a little hot, but the little girl still had a satisfied smile on her face: "It tastes good! Brother, drink it too!"

The three boys couldn't help but grinned, and then they continued to serve the chicken soup.

Qiao Huaping watched from the side and couldn't help but click her tongue, but she didn't notice that a faint smile appeared on her face unconsciously.

This pot of chicken soup, one large and four small, was eaten completely, not even a mouthful of soup was left.

When sleeping at night, the four children huddled on the broken bed made of straw, whispering: "That woman looks different."

"She can also cook chicken soup for us. The chicken soup is so fragrant!"

"No. Knowing what she is planning, we must be more careful when we go on the road tomorrow. She can run away if she wants, it doesn't matter, but we can't let her take away the food." Mei Qingyu said in a low voice.

The remaining three children all nodded together.

We experienced a lot today. The four children cuddled each other and quickly fell asleep.

The next day, according to the time mentioned by the village chief, Qiao Huaping and the four children gathered at the entrance of the village with their packed luggage.

Although Qiao Huaping has space, if you don't bring some things with you, others will definitely become suspicious.

Therefore, Qiao Huaping packed the linoleum cloth, several people's bedding, pots and pans, and some scattered daily necessities into bags and put them on the trolley at home.

Her bow was on her back, and the bowstring was in place. It was made of strong beef tendonâshe bought it for eighteen cents last night at a villager's house at the foot of the mountain.

At this time, Qiao Huaping only had five copper coins left.

Qiao Huaping's reputation in the village was not very good, and most of the others looked at her with disdain.

Qiao Huaping naturally didn't care either.

The village she lives in is called Liujin Village. The village is neither big nor small, with about a hundred households and a total of five to six hundred people, making it a mighty and large team.

Many people were familiar with the nearby places within three days' walking distance. The village chief did not let people go out to explore the way. When everyone was gathered, he said that everyone was from the same village and they should help each other. The speech about overcoming this difficulty together led people to set off.

The villagers dragged their families with them, supported the old and the young, their bodies were covered with baggage, and their carts were piled with things, forming a long fleeing team.

This long escape team meandered nearly half of the mountain's mountain road.

Can't watch from beginning to end.

Qiao Huaping pushed the trolley, and the four children each carried something on their backs. Even the youngest Mei Qingying carried a few pieces of her patched clothes and a buckwheat pillow that she usually used.

The children did not dare to put the last half of the bag of brown rice left by the Mei family on the cart. Mei Qingyao was carrying it.

Although he is only eight years old, he is stronger than some adults.

After walking for only half an hour, Qiao Huaping suddenly spoke to Mei Qingyao: "Yao Yao."

Mei Qingyao trembled all over.

Qiao Huaping didn't take it seriously and called him: "Come here and push the cart. I remembered that I left something at home. I'll go back and get it."

Only a ghost can believe this!

There were only so many things in the two thatched houses. When they came out earlier, they wanted to dig deep and bring everything they could use. Where did the "things left behind" come from now?

Several children only thought of Qiao Huaping and wanted to run away.

Mei Qingyao looked at Mei Qingyu, waiting for him to make up his mind.

Mei Qingyu had long expected that Qiao Huaping might run away, so he was not surprised.

"Let her go."

Mei Qingyu said to Mei Qingyao.

Mei Qingyao nodded and said in a rough voice: "If you want to leave, hurry up!" and snatched the trolley from Qiao Huaping's hand.

Qiao Huaping didn't explain much and quickly turned around and ran towards Liujin Village.

When the villagers saw this scene, they all shook their heads: "Ms. Qiao has really lost her conscience!"

"It's pitiful. How can the children of the Mei family survive without an adult to look after them?"

"Hey, in the war years, who doesn't? It's pitiful. It's all up to God!"

Qiao Huaping's senses were heightened by the water droplets flowing out of the stalactites. As he ran past, he heard these comments and didn't take them seriously.

She soon returned to the deserted Liujin Village.

Everyone in the village had moved away, and even the chickens and ducks raised at home were killed and taken away. At this time, Liujin Village was as quiet as a dead village.

Returning to the dead village, there are still some things that cannot be taken away and left behind.

Qiao Huaping came here for these things.

There was nothing she could do about it. The original owner had previously sold her belongings for a fortune to support her parents' family. Now she was running away, and she didn't have anything to bring with her even if she wanted to.

Qiao Huaping searched door to door.

I have to say, itâs great to have space.

Everything that Qiao Huaping thought could be used was put into the space.

Something like an iron hoe, a hoe, an axe, and even a plow. Qiao Huaping was happy to accept many of the tools that were thrown away because they were too heavy.

Qiao Huaping even found a small half bag of grain in the cellar of a wealthy family!

I guess they have too much stuff and they really can't take it away.

Qiao Huaping was not polite at all. For the sake of convenience, he even used someone else's stove and an iron pot found in someone else's house to spread the small half bag of grain into about thirty steaming pancakes and put them all in the space.

A dustpan that cannot be taken away from the yard? receive!

Unfinished vegetables from the garden? receive!

Hey, the people who sell pigs in this village didnât take away many of the meaty bones?

The tofu seller has a big piece of tofu left in the yard?

If Qiao Huaping doesn't care about these things, won't they all become moldy and smelly in the yard?

What a shameful waste!

Collect, collect, collect!

Qiao Huaping felt no burden and was so happy to take in the space!

Turn off the lights small medium large

Previous chapter: â5. Chapter 5: You donât understand the joy of harvestNext chapter: â7.Chapter 7: Can running away from famine be called stealing?

Chapter 6: This vicious little stepmother was quite pleasing to the eye.

By noon, the mighty fleeing team in Liujin Village also stopped, preparing to avoid the hot sun and eat something to replenish their strength.

The villagers looked around for a shady place, sat on the ground in household units, and ate the dry food they had brought.

Because there are many elderly people and children in the village, the team's journey is not very fast to take them into account. Just walk around and rest. After half a day, itâs not too tiring.

Mei Qingyu took out an oil paper bag from his arms. Inside were several dry vegetable pancakes he had made before.

There was not much food. Mei Qingyu cherished the food very much. He took out two wild vegetable pancakes and broke them open. The four brothers and sisters ate them among themselves.

Under the shade of a tree not far away, villager Song Yuelan started a fire with stones and boiled water. She saw four children nibbling on wild vegetable pancakes. She couldn't stand it, so she brought some pickles and hot water.

"You can eat the home-made radish and pickles with wild vegetable pancakes." Song Yuelan sighed a little, "Auntie is also raising a family here, so she can't help you much." How

can the Mei family lend a helping hand at this time ? The child was already very grateful.

No matter what, it's much better than Qiao Huaping who ran away without them.

"Where is the little stepmother of you four? Did she run away?"

A harsh voice sounded.

It's the little bully in the village, Cao Hongchang.

He was born tall and strong, and because his uncle was a government servant in the county, he had always been the king of children in the village. He led a group of brats and ran rampant and domineering in the village every day, causing people to jump up and down.

But this little bully had lost a battle with Mei Qingyao before, and was tricked by Mei Qingyu again. He suffered a moderate loss. After that, he only dared to use his words to ridicule the Mei family. Four brothers and sisters.

"None of your business!" Mei Qingyao glared at Cao Hongchang and said in a rough voice, "Do you still want to take a fist?"

Cao Hongchang chuckled: "I see you four wild kids that no one wants. , How far can we go!"

"It doesn't matter how far you go, just eat carrots and don't worry about it."

A lazy voice sounded, and the children of the Mei family couldn't believe their ears and looked back. , they saw Qiao Huaping striding towards them with a hare in his hand and a long bow on his shoulder.

When Cao Hongchang saw Qiao Huaping coming, he curled his lips and ran away.

She actually came back?

Mei Qingyu's lips moved slightly, but in the end she didn't say anything.

Mei Qingyao, on the other hand, couldn't help but yelled: "Why are you back?"

The villagers who were enjoying their meal under the shade of the trees couldn't help but look over.

They all thought that Qiao Huaping took the opportunity to leave the four oil bottles and run away, but they never thought that Qiao Huaping was back again?

Qiao Huaping clicked her tongue: "Yao Yao, what are you talking about? Didn't I say it before? I just went back to get some things, why didn't I come back? Who do you think I am?"

She asked three times in a row. Mei Qingyao couldn't even answer the question.

Who do you think she is?

In the past, Mei Qingyao could immediately name a bunch of adjectives, including sinister, shameless and vicious women.

But now, he was inexplicably unable to speak.

Fortunately, Qiao Huaping didn't really want to hear any answer from Mei Qingyao.

She picked up the rabbit in her hand nonchalantly, and showed off happily: "Look at this, is it fat enough? I was lucky to get it on the way back. We can have a snack tonight. It's sizzling and roasted. "Rabbit, do you want to eat it?"

She actually hunted this rabbit yesterday, but her space probably had a preservation effect. The bloody rabbit went in yesterday, and when she took it out today, it was still bloody, and the blood had not yet solidified. , looks no different from the newly hunted ones.

None of the Mei children spoke.

Only the youngest Mei Qinghuang swallowed her saliva and looked at the rabbit in Qiao Huaping's hand with burning eyes. This rabbit is very fat, and you know how fragrant it will be when roasted.

It's like a dream rabbit.

Furthermore, Mei Qinghuang felt that this vicious little stepmother was somewhat pleasing to his eyes.

Qiao Huaping hung the rabbit on the side of the cart with a hemp rope. He saw that several children were still holding wild vegetable pancakes in their hands. Obviously this was their lunch.

Qiao Hua paused and took out a few boiled snake eggs from the bag on his shoulder.

"Take it."

Qiao Huaping stuffed it into Mei Qingyao's hand without hesitation: "Go and give a share to your younger brothers and sisters."

At least add high-quality protein.

Mei Qingyao hesitated for a moment, but followed the instructions and divided the snake eggs.

Mei Qingying got two. She hesitated, peeled off one, walked towards Qiao Huaping in small steps, stretched out her arms, and handed it to Qiao Huaping.

Qiao Huaping felt so happy that she took Mei Qingying's hand, opened her mouth and took a bite of the little snake egg.

When she was about to say something, she saw Mei Qingying running away again.

Qiao Huaping was a little regretful, but she also knew that everything had to be done step by step.

After the sun was at its hottest at noon, the long queue of people fleeing slowly began to move again.

This was the first day of the escape. Everyone was in good mental and physical condition. In addition, the weather gradually cooled down in the afternoon. The escape team, with their families in tow, walked and rested for nearly three days. Ten miles of mountain road.

After all, the mountain road is not easy to walk, but this is already pretty good.

As the sun approached sunset, the village chief took several young adults in the village to find several caves nearby to take shelter from the wind. They also drew lots and selected ten families. Each family sent a young man to form two teams, which were divided into two teams to watch the night in the first half of the night and the second in the middle of the night. , to prevent wild animals or other dangers from approaching.

The cave Qiao Huaping and the others were assigned to was not big, and could only be divided into about ten households.

Qiao Huaping took off the linoleum cloth from the trolley and spread it on the ground to isolate the moisture on the ground.

She was just about to remind the children to spread their bedding so they could rest for a while, but she saw several children lying directly on the linoleum, curled up and falling asleep.

Qiao Hua screen looked at it for a while.

This cave doesn't see light all year round, so it's a bit cold after all.

She dug out a thin mattress from the bedding and covered the children with it. She gently untied the rabbit from the cart and carried the rabbit out.

After she left, Mei Qingyu opened his eyes, with a complicated look on his face, and stared at the dark cave roof in a daze for a while.

Qiao Huaping carried the rabbit to the stream. She put her hand into the bag, covering her movements of taking out the knife from the space.

This knife was something she had picked up from someone else's house earlier, and it was quite useful.

Qiao Huaping quickly used the stream to bleed and skin the rabbit.

Qiao Huaping was not the only one cooking by the stream. Many families piled stones and started cooking stoves by the stream. They gasped when they saw Qiao Huaping's deft disembowelling of the rabbit.

Qiao Huaping set up a fire and started roasting the rabbit.

Because no one dared to enter the evil sect in the forest, this rabbit was born very free. Anyone who saw this fat and strong body would give a thumbs up and say that he looked really considerate of human beings.

When Qiao Huaping grilled it, he didn't need to apply any extra oil. The fat just came out of the rabbit meat.

When the evening breeze blows, the fragrance spreads ten miles away!

Previous chapter: â6.Chapter 6 This vicious little stepmother is a bit pleasing to the eyeNext chapter: â8.Chapter 8 If you keep causing trouble like this, the village will not dare to take you in again

Chapter 7: Escape from famine, can you call it stealing?

The aroma of roasted rabbit made everyone who was cooking nearby have their mouths watering.

We were all going to escape famine, so we brought as much dry food, pickles and other portable items as possible.

Some people also brought jerky, but it was basically the kind that was pickled until it was hard. When making porridge or something at night, cut some of it and throw it into the pot to cook together. There is no such aroma as roasted rabbit.

By the end of the roasting, the people cooking nearby were so greedy that their mouths were drooling all over the place.

When the roasting was almost done, Qiao Huaping took out the coarse salt he brought from home from the bag, pinched a little, and sprinkled it evenly on the roasted rabbit, and the roasted rabbit was ready.

Qiao Huaping took the roasted rabbit dressed in wood and went into the cave.

The people who were cooking nearby almost wanted to beat gongs and drums to say goodbye.

Because the cave was damp and gloomy, the smell was not very good. Qiao Huaping just took the roasted rabbit and stood at the entrance of the cave. The smell attracted many people resting in the cave to look up.

Fragrant, really fragrant.

Mei Qingyu, who was sitting on the linoleum, even heard the sound of many people slobbering around.

"Wake up your brother, your younger brother, and your sister. It's time to eat." Qiao Huaping raised the big roast rabbit in his hand and signaled to Mei Qingyu, "Eat this tonight."

In fact, Mei Qingyu didn't even need to shout. The scent penetrated straight into people's noses, and the three remaining children of the Mei family were awakened.

As soon as Mei Qinghuang opened his eyes, he saw Qiao Huaping standing at the entrance of the cave against the dim light, holding a fragrant roast rabbit and calling them to get up and eat.

He would never forget this scene in his life.

His nose felt sore for no reason.

Not only him, but also Mei Qingyao and Mei Qingying, who had just woken up, looked at Qiao Huaping and the roast rabbit in her hand in a daze.

Qiao Huaping is actually not very patient, but when it comes to several children, she thinks she is quite patient.

"What's the matter, you don't want to eat?" Qiao Huaping said kindly, "Then I'll eat it by myself! Oh, the rabbit is roasted this time. The skin is charred and the meat is fragrant and oily. I'll have another piece of cake and just eat it. Well, Absolutely!"

After saying that, he turned around and left.

The children of the Mei family looked at each other, sipped their saliva, and silently climbed up from the linoleum, and quickly walked towards Qiao Huaping, who was leaving.

Qiao Huaping raised her eyebrows and smiled. She avoided the wind in a humanitarian spirit, lest the fragrance make the children next door cry.

She found a low spot and gently pushed the stick for roasting rabbit into the ground.

The stick sank straight into the ground like a tofu stick.

ââSince using that drop of water, Qiao Huaping's physical fitness has been strengthened in all aspects, his five senses have become sharper, and his strength is much stronger than before.

It's a pity that the water dripping from the stalactite spring was too slow. She had just glanced at the space earlier and saw that the second drop of water was condensed from the stalactite spring. From the looks of it, it would take more time to wait for it to drip. when.

It was really too slow, otherwise Qiao Huaping would have thought about strengthening the physical fitness of her children so that they would have less hardship on the way to escape, and she would also be able to take it easy.

Qiao Huaping took out four steaming pancakes from the bag.

The eyes of the children in the Mei family were widened.

"Didn't I go back earlier? I baked the food that others didn't want." Qiao Huaping winked at the children and said quickly, "This is a little secret between us. We can't tell others." . "

Keeping a common little secret together is a very easy way to enhance your relationship.

Sure enough, after Qiao Huaping finished speaking, the precautions and vigilance in the eyes of several children dissipated unknowingly.

"You are stealing." Mei Qingyao grumbled.

Qiao Huaping spoke righteously: "What are you talking about? Can fleeing from famine be called stealing? If I don't take it away, the food will just rot in the ground. What a waste! Waste is a very shameful behavior. I am Itâs about cherishing the good quality of food, Yaoyao, itâs okay if you donât understand, but donât talk nonsense to slander me.â

Mei Qingyao was speechless.

He said one thing, and Qiao Huaping could pay him back ten.

Qiao Huaping shook the cake in his hand again: "Are you going to eat it?"

Mei Qingyao swallowed, and when he was about to struggle, he saw that his third brother Mei Qinghuang had already reached out and took one of the cakes.

The little guy also whispered "thank you".

Immediately afterwards, Mei Qingying also took a piece of cake.

The little girl also said slowly: "Thank you."

Qiao Huaping smiled a little deeper.

Mei Qingyao puffed up her cheeks.

Mei Qingyu glanced at Mei Qingyao, took a piece of cake, and handed it to Mei Qingyao first.

Mei Qingyao took it awkwardly.

Only then did Mei Qingyu take another piece of cake for herself.

After dividing the cakes, Qiao Huaping took out a small knife from the bag. She gestured and winked at the Mei brothers and sisters: "This is what I picked up on the previous trip back. I sharpened it, don't tell me, It's so easy to use."

After saying that, she raised the knife and cut off a large piece of rabbit meat with just one stroke.

Qiao Huaping handed it to Mei Qingying: "Here, roll it with the pancake and eat it. The fat will seep into the pancake and it will be more fragrant."

Mei Qingying swallowed unconsciously, took it and whispered: "Thank you."

Qiao Huaping cut off another piece and handed it to Mei Qinghuang with a smile: "Huanghuang, here you go."

Although the sky was dim, the joy in Mei Qinghuang's eyes was bright. He took it and couldn't wait to bite it. After taking a big mouthful, the little guy's eyes lit up again and he almost cried. He

chewed vaguely and said with a cry: "It's delicious..."

Qiao Huaping puffed out her chest: "Well, don't you see who baked it?"

He raised the knife and quickly cut off a piece of rabbit meat and handed it to Mei Qingyu.

Mei Qingyu took a deep look at Qiao Huaping, and said thank you when she took it.

The last person to get the rabbit meat was Mei Qingyao, the boss.

Mei Qingyao thanked him awkwardly.

Qiao Hua said calmly, don't worry, although these four children have their own difficulties, there really are no big problems in their upbringing. After taking something from someone, I still knew how to thank her, the "evil little stepmother".

It seems that the short-lived ghost man who died early was quite good at teaching children.

Satisfied, Qiao Huaping took out another pancake from the bag, cut a piece of fragrant rabbit meat, and ate it with the pancake.

Mei Qinghuang quickly finished the rabbit meat in his hand, and when he was hesitating, he saw Qiao Huaping hand over the knife: "Cut it yourself."

Mei Qinghuang jumped up again and said "hmm" happily.

He cut a piece of meat that was roasted golden and buttery. After hesitating for a moment, he handed the piece of meat towards Qiao Huaping: "Here you go."

Qiao Huaping said "Huh", but did not brush the child. Expressing his kindness, he took it with a smile: "Oh, I just finished eating the meat, thank you, Huanghuang."

The dim sunlight covered the sudden blush on Mei Qinghuang's face.

Eating meat and pancakes alone was a bit dry. Qiao Huaping was just thinking about boiling some water when he saw Mei Qingyu turn around and go back to the cave. He brought the water bag over. He glanced at Qiao Huaping and handed the water bag over. come over.

Qiao Huaping once again lamented that the short-lived ghost man did a good job in educating the children. When they settled down later, she would burn some yellow paper for the short-lived ghost.

Eating the rabbit meat cut off by Mei Qinghuang, drinking the water handed over by Mei Qingyu, and blowing the cool evening breeze, Qiao Huaping was enjoying himself when he heard footsteps approaching.

Qiao Huaping looked in the direction of the footsteps and saw an old woman walking this way holding a little boy with a runny nose.

Previous chapter: â7.Chapter 7: Can running away from famine be called stealing?Next chapter: â9.Chapter 9: Just wait and go out tonight

Chapter 8 If you continue to cause trouble like this, the village will not dare to take you in again.

"Qiao, did you bake this rabbit meat?" The old woman was close to Qiao Huaping, her little eyes full of shrewd calculations.

Qiao Huaping raised her eyebrows, feeling that this old woman's ability to find something to say was a bit low.

She didn't bake this rabbit meat. Did it fall from the sky?

"What's the matter with you?" Qiao Huaping asked straight to the point.

This old woman also has some impressions in the memory of the original owner.

Her surname was Xu. A man died when she was young. She raised her only son and lived in poverty.

As a result, a few years after the only son married his daughter-in-law, the daughter-in-law couldn't stand the hard life, so she left the man and the children and ran away.

The only son was in a bad state of mind.

Then the original owner married to Liujin Village. Somehow, the only son fell in love with Qiao Huaping, who had a large birthmark on his face. Especially after Qiao Huaping's man fell off a cliff and died, the only son became obsessed with Qiao Huaping, the little widow. Got some ideas.

However, the original owner looked down on poor people like Mrs. Xu's only son and refused directly. The only son couldn't bear it, so he left his wife and children behind, saying that he wanted to go out to do a big business.

Looking at Qiao's picture screen, this guy left his wife and children and walked away irresponsibly. He talked about doing a big business, but in fact he was evading his responsibilities.

This matter is a bad thing. It may have something to do with the original owner. It really doesn't matter much, but Mrs. Xu has been resenting Qiao Huaping ever since, and she always exchanges curses with the original owner several times from time to time.

At this moment, Mrs. Xu brought her grandson over, and Qiao Huaping guessed that there was nothing good going on.

She simply asked directly.

Mrs. Xu licked her face and stretched out her hand: "You're good at roasting rabbits. My grandson is hungry. Give me a rabbit leg."

Qiao Huaping couldn't help but raise her eyebrows: "Old guy, I think your face is better than your age. It's so thick."

Mrs. Xu got angry and started to curse again: "Miss Qiao, you are such a slut! If it weren't for you, how could Liang'er leave? You forced me, Liang'er, to leave. Shouldn't you keep me and my grandson? If you want a rabbit leg, it's light!"

Qiao Huaping was simply amazed by Mrs. Xu's views.

Mrs. Xu's precious grandson, drooling at the corner of his mouth, ran towards the roasted rabbit stuck on the ground.

To be honest, Qiao Huaping thinks that he is not stingy.

If you really come to her in a nice manner and ask for some rabbit meat, she won't refuse to give it to you.

Especially children.

Qiao Huaping had sacrificed her life to save the children before, and she was not that stingy towards the children.

However, it must be something she is willing to give, not to rob openly.

Qiao Huaping sat on a stone nearby and said loudly: "Yao Yao, protect our rabbit!"

Mei Qingyao jumped up and stepped forward to block the roast rabbit.

Mrs. Xu's precious golden grandson hit Mei Qingyao directly, bounced off, and fell to the ground, sobbing.

Mrs. Xu couldn't bear it anymore and hurriedly helped up her precious grandson. Instead, she sat on the ground by herself, slapping her thighs and crying: "Oh, come on, someone is bullying me. We're going to kill people!"

Even though the place Qiao Huaping chose was a bit quiet, Mrs. Xu's cries were very penetrating. Soon, many villagers followed the sound and said, "What's going on?"

Even the village chief came.

After all, it was the first day of escaping, and the village chief didn't want to get into trouble as soon as he started on the road.

As a result, the village chief couldn't help but feel a headache when he saw that it was the Qiao family, a notorious person in the village, who had a conflict with Mrs. Xu.

Mrs. Xu was still acting up on the ground: "Village chief, you are here to judge. This old woman is old, and Mrs. Qiao will do whatever she says. From now on, she will not be able to beat and kill me!"

Mrs. Xu's eldest grandson She was also crying on the side, pointing at Qiao Huaping: "She bullied grandma! Bad guy!"

Then he pointed at Mei Qingyao: "He even beat me!"

Mei Qingyao was so angry that her face turned red and her neck was thick, and her fists were clenched!

This naughty kid!

At such a young age, you can actually tell lies to slander people? !

When the village chief heard this, he immediately frowned and looked at Qiao Huaping displeasedly: "Ms. Qiao, can you live a little more peacefully? You usually torment your four children. That is your family's business and no one else's. It's okay to say anything. But now our village is running away from the famine. If you continue to cause trouble like this, the village will not dare to take you in."

The villagers also nodded: "Mrs. Xu's family only has her and a child, and you still bully people like this. " It really shouldn't be."

"That's right."

The four children from the Mei family turned red with anger as they listened to the villagers' comments.

Qiao Huaping had treated them harshly before and was right to bully them.

But in the past two days, Qiao Huaping seemed to be a different person. He always smiled when he spoke, prepared delicious food for them, and even saved them from a leopard!

What's more, the villagers didn't know what happened just now, but they saw it clearly.

It's obviously that Mrs. Xu who wants something but doesn't get it!

"It's not like that..."

Several children tried to speak for Qiao Huaping, but their voices were immediately muffled by the villagers.

Qiao Huaping clicked his tongue, slowly reached into the robe, and took out a kitchen knife from the space under the cover of the robe.

She threw the kitchen knife forward!

Although the sky was dark, the kitchen knife blade was shone with cold light. The villagers only saw a cold light flash before their eyes, and then heard a bang!

ââThe kitchen knife was thrown onto the tree trunk by Qiao Huaping, and it penetrated three points!

The blade is still trembling!

The villagers who were still talking to each other before immediately became quiet.

"Can you listen to us talk properly now?" Qiao Huaping asked slowly.

The village chief was so frightened that his face turned blue. He covered his chest and tried his best to maintain his dignity as the village chief: "You, what do you want to say?!"

Qiao Huaping said slowly: "What I want to say is very simple. This old woman, And that kid, didnât he say that my son and I beat them and bullied them? If I really bullied them, I would be willing to leave this fleeing team. But if this old godly woman talks nonsense about me, wouldnât the village chief have to do the same? Deal with it?"

Mrs. Xu immediately said: "Stop talking nonsense! Why are you slandering me? You are so unscrupulous that you don't even let the elderly and children go!"

She sat on the ground and kicked her legs. crying.

Qiao Huaping said kindly: "If you keep arguing, I just threw the kitchen knife at your head."

"Village chief, look, she is threatening me!" Mrs. Xu said, "Such a cruel and vicious person cannot be kept here anymore. !â

The village chief of Liujin Village gritted his teeth and said, âQiao, since you said that, how can you prove that you didnât hit anyone?â

Some villagers also hesitated and said, âThatâs all, Qiao, but the Mei family? "These children have always been well-behaved, so it doesn't seem right that they hit people on their own initiative."

Song Yuelan, who came after hearing the news, also nodded heavily and said anxiously: "Those children from the Mei family are so sensible that anyone who sees them feels distressed! How can they take the initiative to bully others?"

"That's right!"

Chapter 9 Just wait and go out tonight.

Several children in the Mei family, whether it is the powerful and somewhat irritable eldest son Mei Qingyao, the twins Mei Qinghuang and Mei Qingyu, or Mei Qingying The little girls who don't like to talk are all good-looking, which makes people like them. In addition, they are well-educated, and they have always been very popular in this Liujin Village. .

Hearing that the villagers just didn't want to see her, but were still willing to speak for the four children of the Mei family, Qiao Huaping nodded with satisfaction: "It shows that everyone has sharp eyes."

She chuckled and stretched out her hands. Come.

The villagers were puzzled and frowned.

Mei Qingyu thought of something, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

"What are you doing with your claws!" Mrs. Xu cursed, "You're the only one with claws?! Or are you trying to seduce someone with your claws?!"

Qiao Huaping just treated it like a dog barking and ignored it.

She smiled and said: "Look, everyone, I was eating roast rabbit with my Zaizai just now. Our hands were all shiny - this old godly woman was crying and yelling that Zaizai and I beat them and bullied them. , you can go up and take a look at their clothes, is there any smell of roasted rabbit fat?"

Mrs. Xu's face turned dark when she heard this.

She doesnât even have to smell it!

This bitch's hooves had never touched her from beginning to end, so how could there be any oily aroma? !

Mrs. Xu's grandson even grabbed the hem of his clothes and stepped back.

With this appearance, how can anyone else say it?

The faces of all the villagers turned dark!

The village chief of Liujin Village has prominent veins on his forehead.

I was already very tired after traveling all day, but Mrs. Xu still did this.

"You have nothing to do!" The village chief of Liujin Village glared at Mrs. Xu and said in a rough voice, "Seeing as you are so free, there is no need to draw lots tonight, so you can be responsible for patrolling in the second half of the night! If you keep doing this If you have nothing to do, you don't need to stay in the village anymore, just leave!"

The village chief left angrily.

The inspection in the second half of the night was the hardest. The village had agreed before that only young and middle-aged people would be selected. Mrs. Xu, who only had an old man and a young child in her family, did not have to suffer this penalty.

It's good now that Mrs. Xu failed to frame Qiao Huaping, but instead found herself a "good job".

Mrs. Xu got up from the ground in great embarrassment, pulled her precious grandson, bent over and ran away.

Seeing that the excitement was gone, the villagers dispersed.

Song Yuelan originally wanted to say something, but seeing that Qiao Huaping and the others didn't care much, she kept her mouth shut.

Just as she was about to turn around and leave, Song Yuelan heard Qiao Huaping calling her with a smile: "Sister-in-law Song~"

Facing Qiao Huaping, the notorious little stepmother in the village, Song Yuelan looked unhappy and asked: "Is something wrong?"

Qiao Huaping didn't know. Angry because of Song Yuelan's downcast face. She smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, the pickles you gave to the children at noon were quite delicious. Do you still have any more? I'll trade you for some roast rabbit."

Song Yuelan was stunned for a moment, but she was a little suspicious. Own ears: "What did you say? Roast rabbit for pickles?"

Qiao Huaping nodded with a smile, picked a broad leaf from a nearby bush, washed it with water from the water bag, took a knife again, and I sliced ââa few pieces off the half-roasted rabbit, took a pack of leaves, and stuffed them into Song Yuelan's hand.

Song Yuelan was panicked. The roasted rabbit meat in her hand was a rarity even if it was kept in a farmer's house, let alone on this deserted road.

"Sister-in-law, take it quickly." Qiao Huaping waved her hand, "Sister-in-law will prepare some pickles for me later. I'll just ask my sister-in-law to get them."

After saying that, Qiao Huaping ignored Song Yuelan and happily took the food from the roasted rabbit . Eat slices of barbecue.

Song Yuelan couldn't tell what it felt like. After hesitating for a while, she still took the package of roast rabbit and left.

Mei Qingyu took a bite of the meat pancake in his hand and looked at Qiao Huaping who was grilling rabbit meat, thoughtfully.

After a while, another mother-in-law came, with a smile on her face. Qiao Huaping recognized her. She was Song Yuelan's mother-in-law, Zhou Xu.

Mrs. Zhou Xu held a pack of pickles in her hand and exaggeratedly said to Qiao: "Hey, eldest niece, why are you so polite? It's just for ordering pickles. Let me tell you, it's worth it. Take the roasted rabbit." "I 'll give you the meat."

Qiao Huaping said with a smile, "That can't be done. Sister-in-law Song was kind enough to give my Zaizai a few pickles at noon. I heard some people scolding Huai," and

Mrs. Zhou took it as such . As if Qiao Huaping meant something, she smiled and said a lot of good things, and finally revealed her meaning: "Niece of the Qiao family, there are many people in my family, so those few pieces of baked goods you gave me Rabbit meat is really not enough - but I won't give it to you for nothing, I'll give you pickles in exchange, don't you think so?"

Qiao Huaping couldn't help but laugh.

This week, Mrs. Xu really pretended to be confused.

Do you think Qiao Huaping really cares about their pickles?

Qiao Huaping stood up from the stone, still holding a meat knife in his hand: "No need, I only like to eat the pickles given by Sister-in-law Song, and I don't like anything else."

Mrs. Zhou Xu's face showed a hint of embarrassment . Come, put down the pickles and leave in a hurry.

Qiao Huaping looked at Zhou Xu's back and clicked her tongue.

The roasted rabbit was very plump. Qiao Huaping and the four children had a hearty meal, and sliced ââsome meat for Song Yuelan, leaving some bone-in rabbit meat.

Qiao Huaping sliced ââoff all the roasted rabbit meat with superb knife skills, and in the end, only a pair of lean rabbit skeletons remained.

Qiao Huaping didn't let go of this thing. He cut the rabbit skeleton into segments with a kitchen knife, wrapped it in washed leaves, put it all into the bag, and threw it into the space under the cover of the bag.

Qiao Huaping patted his trousers and said with a smile: "When I take a break at noon tomorrow, I will use this rabbit skeleton to make soup and make cakes."

The arrangement was very good at making the best use of everything.

Mei Qinghuangrao's stomach was chubby from eating right now. After hearing Qiao Huaping's words, she couldn't help but start thinking about the delicious rabbit soup at noon tomorrow.

Now he looks more and more pleased with this little stepmother.

Mei Qingyu couldn't help but glance at the robe, not knowing how much the woman had put in it.

He saw the woman take out many things from inside.

Kitchen knives are trivial.

Mei Qingyao, on the other hand, muttered in a low voice: "It's so hot, why don't you worry that the food will turn rancid tomorrow at noon? I think this woman might have the intention of giving us diarrhea!"

Mei Qingyao said in a low voice. , but Qiao Huaping's five senses were strengthened, and she heard clearly. She smiled sweetly: "Yes, Yaoyao, you discovered it! In fact, when I roasted the rabbit tonight, I put a lot of croton on the rabbit meat. , Just wait to go to Chugong tonight!"

Mei Qingyao's expression changed, and before he could think about it, Huo De stood up, as if he was about to rush out to Chugong in the next second.

. Mei Qingyu grabbed Mei Qingyao and said helplessly: "Brother, just listen to her scare you. She also ate the roast rabbit. If there were crotons, she could escape. ? "

Yes.

Mei Qingyao finally reacted and realized that he had been tricked by Qiao Huaping. He was ashamed and annoyed, and his face turned red.

Looking at Qiao Huaping again, she was sitting on the stone, smiling happily.

Mei Qingyao was so angry that she ran to the woods to gather grass.

Mei Qingyu didn't notice, there was a faint smile on his lips.

On the willow trees above the moon, the frosty moonlight shines down, bringing a touch of coolness to the mountains.

However, the originally dank cave inevitably seemed a little cold now.

For the villagers of Liujin Village, although it is not that unbearable, it is naturally much worse than the earthen beds they usually sleep on.

This first night of escape is destined to be a sleepless night for many people.

But the Mei family was fine. Qiao Huaping encouraged Mei Qingyao: "Yao Yao, you gathered a lot of grass in the forest earlier?"

Mei Qingyao's face was distorted. He thought this vicious little stepmother was You're mocking him!

Mei Qingyao was about to jump when she saw Qiao Huaping issuing a new command with a smile: "Yaoyao, there is no freeloader in this world. If you eat my roast rabbit, do you have to do some work?"

Mei Qing Yao's eyes widened.

But couldn't refute.

It's true, he did eat the rabbit roasted by this vicious woman...

Well, to be precise, he ate a lot...

Seeing Mei Qingyao, Qiao Huaping was so aggrieved that he couldn't speak, with a drooped face, as if " Although I'm very unhappy, there's nothing I can do about you." She stood there, waiting for Qiao Huaping to continue, and her smile deepened.

Although Qiao Huaping has a strong sense of responsibility for these children, she is not a mother's character. Naturally, she will not take care of all the tasks that the children can't do.

Qiao Huaping smiled brightly: "Yao Yao, go and take your younger brothers and sisters to bring all the grass you have gathered in the forest."

Mei Qingyao's eyes widened, and she was about to say, "You are free." As a result, his second brother Mei Qingyu pulled his sleeve.

Mei Qingyu probably guessed Qiao Huaping's intention. He whispered to Mei Qingyao: "Brother, just do as she says."

"...Okay." Mei Qingyao saw that the smartest second brother was like this. Having said that, he endured it and prepared to go to the forest to hold grass.

When he turned around, he saw his little sister Mei Qingying rolling up her sleeves and looking like she was going to hug the grass with them. He felt a little distressed and said quickly: "Little sister, just rest in the cave. Brothers can go there. "

Mei Qingying shook her head, her tone was a little slow but firm: "Yingying, I want to go, too." If

Mei Qingyao wanted to say anything, Qiao Huaping was already sitting there leisurely. He opened his mouth and said: "It's just a few straws, it won't make anyone tired, Yingying can do it."

Mei Qingyao glared at Qiao Huaping, thinking angrily, she is indeed the stepmother, she just doesn't know how to care about people, they Yingying The reflection is still so small!

But before he could say these words, Mei Qingying's eyebrows relaxed and she smiled sweetly.

...The eight-year-old eldest brother Mei Qingyaoâs heart melted.

He gave in to his lovely sister.

ââJust walk around and let his Yingying hold some grass.

The four children worked together and soon returned with a lot of grass.

Qiao Huaping smiled and reused the grass and spread it on the ground. He also spread the linoleum cloth on the grass. In this way, the moisture was not so heavy.

Only then did Mei Qingyao suddenly realize.

It turns out that this vicious woman didnât mean to embarrass them!

He couldn't help but feel a little awkward.

Qiao Huaping sat on the corner of the linoleum. Seeing that the children were unwilling to come near her because of her presence, she couldn't help but curled her lips: "What's the matter, do you want to keep a vigil for me tonight? It's not impossible, then I will." Go to bed first and recharge your batteries."

The Mei family only has Qiao Huaping and four children, so naturally they don't need to draw lots and keep vigil.

When she said this, several children from the Mei family immediately rushed to lie down.

Especially Mei Qingyao, who almost pounced on him.

Just kidding, who wants to keep vigil for her!

After all, they had walked a lot of mountain roads during the day. Although they had eaten a good meal of meat and replenished their physical strength, they had consumed too much. The children of the Mei family fell asleep almost as soon as they lay down, and even started playing. Snoring slightly.

Some people in the cave have already fallen asleep, and the sound of snoring can be described as one after another.

Mei Qingyao was not sleeping well. When she turned over, she kicked off the thin quilt covering her body.

The Mei family was very poor, and all four children shared a quilt. When he kicked the quilt, the quilts on the other children were gone.

Several children were shaking in their sleep.

Qiao Huaping, who was lying on the other corner of the linoleum cloth and had not yet fallen asleep, opened his eyes and sighed helplessly. He got up and carefully covered the children with quilts, and even tucked the corners of the quilts tightly. In fact, he lay down again.

The villagers who were not asleep nearby saw this scene through the moonlight at the entrance of the cave and felt it was incredible.

Why did Mrs. Qiao change her temper?

What surprised the villagers was yet to come. On the second day, as soon as it was clear, they were woken up by the smell of porridge.

The villagers got up from the cave in a daze and saw Qiao Huaping holding a cracked porcelain bowl in his hand, sitting on a stone outside the cave, enjoying the morning breeze and eating there slowly. A bowl of porridge.

The porridge was filled with finely chopped meat. The aroma of the meat was mixed with the dense rice porridge and sprinkled with finely chopped pickles. The aroma was simply tempting!

Thanks to this bowl of porridge, the villagers woke up quickly, washed up, cooked, and prepared for a new day.

Naturally, the children of the Mei family also woke up.

They were still a little confused.

Especially after seeing the pot of rabbit meat rice porridge, they were even more confused.

They knew that the rabbit meat should be the leftover meat from the barbecue yesterday.

...But where did this dense corn come from?

Qiao Huaping curled her lips, as if she understood the surprise on the faces of several children. She smiled and said: "Is it difficult? I exchanged some roast rabbit for some."

Just as they set off on the road to escape, everyone started to There is food in it, and the gaps between the fingers are naturally wide. What's more, Qiao Huaping exchanged it for genuine roast rabbit meat, so naturally some people are willing to exchange it.

Several children were stunned.

"Gurgling."

Someone's stomach growled several times.

The third child, Mei Qinghuang, subconsciously covered her stomach.

He looked at the pot of porridge pitifully.

Qiao Huaping smiled brightly, and her words sounded like sounds of nature among the children: "Okay, go wash up quickly and eat well so that you can go on your way."

Several children looked at each other and didn't know what was going on. Although they were running away from famine at the moment, they felt that the days of running away from famine were no longer so gloomy that they only left despair when they thought about it.

Chapter 11 Itâs difficult to travel in the scorching heat.

The second day of escaping was obviously a little slower than the first day.

Firstly, the mountain road became more and more rugged and difficult to walk. Secondly, after this sleep passed, many people not only did not rest, but were sore all over, so their progress naturally slowed down.

The children of the Mei family are not bad, even Mei Qingying is young after all. After working hard all day yesterday, after walking for a while today, her face turned red and she was breathing heavily.

The few strands of hair on her forehead were wet with sweat and stuck to her face. She felt hot, tired and very uncomfortable.

Qiao Huaping couldn't stand it anymore, so she directly picked up Mei Qingying and put it on the trolley: "Sit down and rest."

Mei Qingying moved her little body awkwardly, her eyelashes fluttering like a round fan, and she looked He looked at Qiao Hua on the screen and said nothing, just licking his dry lips.

Qiao Huaping was so cute that she took off the water bag hanging on the side of the car and handed it to Mei Qingying: "Drink some water."

She got up early in the morning and went to the nearby mountains and forests to collect some heat-clearing and anti-inflammatory drugs. I brewed a big pot of hot herbs.

Because he was afraid that Mei Qingying wouldn't be able to drink it, Qiao Huaping threw some licorice in when making the heat-clearing soup in the morning.

Although this licorice is not as sweet as sugar, the sweetness is very good. When paired with the cool herbal soup, it is actually very good. After drinking it, the whole person feels refreshed.

Mei Qingying took the water bag from Qiao Huaping, hesitated for a moment, and then unscrewed the lid.

The unique smell of Qingrejieshu Decoction hit me, and just by smelling it, my whole body was shaken.

Mei Qingyao was always wary of Qiao Huaping.

He saw Qiao Huaping give the little sister a water bag. After the little sister unscrewed the water bag, she was still holding the water bag in a daze. He thought that this vicious woman had done something else?

Mei Qingyao rushed forward and asked Qiao Huaping angrily: "What did you give to the little girl? Are you trying to do something else?!"

Before Mei Qingyao could finish her words, he saw the little girl hugging her Water bag, take a few sips!

Mei Qingyao was stunned.

Mei Qingying put down the water bag, her eyes were shining, and her whole body was visibly more energetic.

She said loudly: "It tastes good!"

As she said this, she stuffed a water bag into Mei Qingyao's place: "Brother, drink it too!"

Mei Qingyao was extremely embarrassed.

Qiao Huaping glanced at Mei Qingyao with a half-smile.

Mei Qingyao took the water bag stuffed by her little sister, whether it was for drinking or not.

Mei Qingying was still urging her persistently: "Brother, drink it, it tastes good, really good!"

Qiao Huaping's half-smile deepened a little deeper, and finally she spoke leisurely: "Yao Yao. , as a human being, it is a good thing to be on guard against others, but if you misunderstand others again and again, do you have to reflect on yourself? ...Be more open-minded, don't always have paranoia, and think that everyone is wrong. I want to harm you."

Mei Qingyao is still an eight-year-old child. He is no match for an old and cunning adult like Qiao Huaping. He blushed when Qiao Huaping said it, and was dumbfounded. He was a little unwilling: "But, but you did it before? ââ"

"Oh, you also said it was before. People always change." Qiao Huaping changed her expression and said, "I was not good to you in the past, and I apologize to you. You should also be able to see that I don't just talk in words, I also try to show it with actions, right? Yaoyao, as a person, you have to look at the development pattern of things dialectically. You should not always deny me completely. Everything. Right? - Letâs not talk about anything else. Letâs start with the water in the water bag. Do you think I did something in the water?â

After this long sentence, Mei Qingyaoâs heart skipped a beat. He jumped and his face turned red like a monkey's butt.

He felt that what Qiao Huaping said seemed to make some sense.

In just two days, Qiao Huaping's performance was indeed completely different from before.

He subconsciously asked Mei Qingyu, the smartest second brother, for help. As a result, Mei Qingyu thoughtfully took the water bag from Mei Qingyao's hand, first smelled it, and then took a few sips, showing a somewhat... She looked shocked, but also a little confused, and said in a deep voice: "Brother, this water... is really delicious, and after drinking it, it feels like the heat all over the body has been taken away."

Mei Qingyao was extremely shocked: "So awesome?!"

Mei Qinghuang hurriedly came over: "Let me take a sip, let me take a sip!"

Mei Qinghuang took the water bag and drank a few sips. He was so shocked that he couldn't be more shocked. The little guy looked at Qiao Huaping, his eyes full of disbelief: "Really, it tastes so good?! You, you made it?"

Qiao Huaping smiled proudly and raised his chin: "Thank you!"

She smiled Mei Qingyao looked at Mei Qingyao again: "Drink it too. If it tastes good, should you say something to me?"

Mei Qingyao gritted his teeth and took the water bag from his brother's hand, as if he was a strong man. He raised his head and started drinking.

As a result, after these few mouthfuls, he fell into a trance!

Itâs really delicious!

Qiao Huaping looked forward to what Mei Qingyao would say, waiting for Mei Qingyao to speak.

Mei Qingyao closed her eyes and said, "I misunderstood you about the water. I'm sorry!"

Qiao Huaping was a little surprised. Mei Qingyao, the upright and fiery little brother, was also the most wary of her. The child actually apologized to her.

Qiao Huaping's smile deepened.

She smiled.

Mei Qingyao was already mentally prepared that Qiao Huaping would take the opportunity to ridicule him. She was gritting her teeth and closing her eyes to be ridiculed, but unexpectedly received a cold hand.

The hand touched his head gently.

On such a hot day, Qiao Huaping's hand had a hint of coolness, which made Mei Qingyao stunned.

Qiao Huaping's smiling voice came over: "Yao Yao, you are a good boy."

He said nothing more.

Mei Qingyao's face instantly turned red like a monkey's ass.

...

In this long fleeing team, many people slowly fell behind under the scorching heat.

The village chief had no choice but to ask the young men to shout and spread the news that there was a shady area ahead. When they got there, they would work together to repair it.

Although these words were a bit wishful thinking, they finally brought a glimmer of hope to the team that was overwhelmed by the sweltering heat.

The long fleeing team moved forward slowly, and finally, less than half an hour later, they arrived at the shady place the village chief had mentioned.

This shady area is under a protruding cliff. The terrain is special. There are many wild fruit trees growing lushly. The fruits are very sour and inedible at the moment, but the shade of the wild fruit trees is quite refreshing. Blocked a lot of the sun.

Every household in Liujin Village looked for the shade of a tree, leaned there, and sat down to rest.

Some older people couldn't stand the scorching heat. The only doctor in the village was already busy treating people.

Chapter 12: The good thief's space

doctor's surname is Zhu, and his name is Zhu Xiangyi. He is not too old, less than twenty years old. He was an apprentice of traditional Chinese medicine with the old man in the village.

Later, when the old doctor passed away, Zhu Xiangyi took over the medicine box from the old doctor and began to treat the villagers.

After a few years of watching, his reputation gradually spread. On weekdays, people from all over the country would come to Dr. Zhu if they had a headache.

Zhu Xiangyi was so busy that he didn't even touch the ground. He didn't carry many herbs with him, most of them were emergency herbs. However, before escaping, he had anticipated that the heat would be difficult to prevent along the way, so he prepared some pills to relieve the heat in advance. Nowadays, it is convenient to dissolve it in water. It can also greatly alleviate the symptoms of heat stroke in the elderly who have signs of heat stroke.

These days, who doesnât have an old man at home?

The villagers were all worried.

The village chief of Liujin Village had no choice but to decide to stay under this wild fruit forest after discussion, and wait until the sun was not so bright in the afternoon before setting off.

Qiao Huaping saw that the large team was starting to repair, and she had nothing to do. She picked up a bamboo basket and put it on her back, and then picked up the sickle: "I will go to the forest to find some more herbs and make some medicinal soup to clear away heat and relieve summer heat. "

Mei Qingyu showed a somewhat hesitant look on his face.

Qiao Huaping seemed to have read through his mind.

She smiled and said: "Okay, you guys should have a good rest. Don't get sick from the heat by then. I will have to take care of you."

Qiao Huaping bent down and got into the wild fruit forest.

The forest was overgrown with weeds, vines and shrubs. Qiao Huaping waved his scythe to clear the way, while not forgetting to identify the herbs growing in the wild fruit forest.

It's just that she didn't know if it was her luck or something, but she found a plant with blood-like petals in a deep corner of the wild fruit forest.

Qiao Huaping's eyes suddenly lit up.

Qiao Huaping didn't know what this plant was called in ancient times, but in her time, this herb was a very precious and rare medicinal herb called Xue Jianchou. It had miraculous effects on stopping bleeding and was a truly life-saving herb.

This Xue Jian Chou has extremely strict requirements for the growth environment. It needs shade and enough moisture. It is best that the soil is acidic, otherwise even if Xue Jian Chou takes root and sprouts, it will not bloom.

It is useless to worry about blood that cannot bloom.

Only the flowered Xie Jianchou can be used as medicine in its entirety. Qiao Huaping didn't want to waste it, so he carefully dug up the whole Xue Jianchou plant without even cutting off any roots.

Seeing the bloody blood with its roots completely dug out, Qiao Huaping only felt proud!

Never waste a single star!

Qiao Huaping smoothly received the Xue Jianchou tree into the space.

This thing is too precious and must be kept.

However, somehow, as soon as the Xue Jianchou fell into the space, Qiao Huaping's spirit was shocked.

I saw that the moment the blood fell into the space, its roots actively spread towards the land in the space, firmly grasping the land in the space!

It actually took root!

At the same time, the water droplets that were still slowly condensing on the stalactites solidified instantly, and even dropped into the stone bowl under the stalactites with a "pop" sound!

Qiao Huaping said "Huh", thoughtfully.

She did another experiment, randomly digging up a weed on the roadside and throwing it into space.

The weeds did not take root like Xue Jianchou.

ââBut like other dead objects placed in the space, it lies there quietly, maintaining the original state when Qiao Huaping put it into the space.

Qiao Huaping raised her eyebrows, she seemed to understand.

However, it still needs a little verification.

Qiao Huaping searched the wild fruit forest for a long time, but could not find the second Xue Jianchou.

However, she was also lucky and found another rare medicinal plant called Mingxincao.

This clear grass looks inconspicuous, just like a weed in the mountains, but it is an extremely rare herb that can treat epilepsy.

Qiao Huaping tried to place the entire plant of the White Heart Grass in the space. Sure enough, this extremely rare White Heart Grass, just like the previous Xue Jian Chou, quickly took root and grew vigorously in the space, with no leaves. The wind moves itself.

Forget it, just now a drop of water dropped from the stalactite. According to the previous rules, it would take at least a few days for the stalactite to condense water droplets. Now it started to condense water droplets again!

Qiao Huaping: "...Haha."

She understands!

This space is so thief!

Only extremely precious medicinal materials can grow vigorously in the space, and it will also increase the speed at which stalactites condense water droplets!

Also, I don't know if it was her imagination, but she seemed to feel that the mist surrounding the stalactites in the space seemed to have receded slightly.

Qiao Huaping discovered another characteristic of this space!

She was in a great mood, humming a song and walking back with her basket on her back.

Naturally, the basket on her back contained a lot of common herbs she had collected, as well as a large handful of licorice.

She planned to use these to make some decoction to clear away heat and relieve summer heat.

However, before she got closer, she heard a faint cry, and occasionally the angry calls of several children.

Qiao Huaping's expression changed!

She heard it, including the voices of her cubs!

Qiao Huaping had a look on his face, accelerated almost instantly, and ran back quickly!

When she rushed out of the wild fruit forest, the first thing she saw was several adults pulling Mei Qingyao. Mei Qingyao was riding on Cao Hongchang, the little bully in the village, clenching his fists. It seemed that if there were no adults stopping him, , Mei Qingyao's fist was about to fall on Cao Hongchang.

Qiao Huaping felt the anger rushing straight to his scalp!

"Stop!"

Qiao Huaping shouted.

The adults were stunned and subconsciously let go of Mei Qingyao - Qiao Huaping looked at them as if he wanted to skin them!

Mei Qingyao didn't expect Qiao Huaping to come back at this moment, and his clenched fists froze in mid-air.

Cao Hongchang took the opportunity to push Mei Qingyao and stood up in embarrassment.

His body was covered with dirt, and his hair was covered with weeds and dirt. He looked very embarrassed.

"Just wait for me!" Cao Hongchang said harshly and ran away.

Qiao Huaping ignored Cao Hongchang.

Mei Qingying whimpered and threw herself on Mei Qingyao.

Mei Qingyao was stiff all over, with her hands open, not daring to touch Mei Qingying: "Little, little sister... Big brother is dirty..."

Mei Qingying hugged Mei Qingyao's waist regardless, sobbing and crying.

Qiao Huaping felt like her scalp was swelling: "Can anyone tell me what is going on?"

The children of the Mei family remained silent.

Qiao Huaping wasn't angry either. He looked at the adults who were arguing before and picked one of them: "He Jin!"

He Jin, whose name was called, was stunned for a moment and said quickly: "I don't know, I don't know!"

Chapter 13: This is going to beat our brother Chang to death.

Qiao Huaping looked at He Jin and chuckled, but his eyes were filled with anger.

When she went to the wild fruit forest to pick herbs, the Chiujiu on Mei Qingying's head was still fine. She also picked a wild flower and gave it to the little girl to pin on the Chiujiu.

But at this moment, it looked like the chirp on the little girl's head had been torn apart, and the wild flower was missing.

She threw the sickle in her hand casually, and the sickle whirled and flew towards Na He Jin!

"Bang!"

A dull sound struck the wood.

The sickle actually turned sideways from He Jin's face, flew into the wild fruit tree behind He Jin, and penetrated three-thirds of the way into the tree!

He Jin almost peed in fear!

He had heard someone say before that Mr. Qiao didn't know where he learned it. Throwing a kitchen knife away could make it penetrate three-thirds of the wood. Now that he saw it, it was really true!

His legs went weak and he trembled: "Sister Qiao, I'm just here to start a fight... When I came over, your boss was already beating Cao Hongchang!" He saw Qiao Huaping and blinked. Mi, obviously very dissatisfied with this answer, hurriedly said, "But, it seems, it seems that Cao Hongchang bullied your Yaomei first..."

"Okay, I understand, this is what you said. "Yes." Qiao Huaping sneered, "Remember to be this witness later."

He Jin felt cold sweat on his forehead.

Why does he feel that this Mr. Qiao seems to know everything? This is just to force him to say this and to testify!

Qiao Huaping heard He Jin's words and ignored He Jin.

She walked towards Mei Qingyao.

Mei Qingyao was originally at a loss because his sister was crying, but when he saw Qiao Huaping coming over, he immediately turned his head to the side, looking very rebellious.

This happened before. He beat Cao Hongchang because he bullied others. As a result, the vicious little stepmother actually beat him with a whip.

Although he was stopped by other villagers after only a few whippings, when Mei Qingyao thought of the previous incident, he felt that the whip marks on his back were still aching.

No, itâs just a few more whippings!

He is not afraid!

However, what he was waiting for was not a whip, but Qiao Huaping's slightly cool hand.

Her cool hand gently touched his face and asked him: "Yao Yao, are you injured somewhere?"

The little boy froze!

After a long while, he deliberately spoke in a rough voice to cover up his confusion and trembling heart: "What are you talking about! With Cao's skills, I will get hurt if I hit him?!"

"Really? "Qiao Huaping's hand gently touched somewhere on his neck.

Mei Qingyao immediately took a breath and hissed.

broken!

Mei Qingyao immediately swallowed the uncontrollable cry of pain, and his expression became extremely unnatural.

He almost forgot that he was so angry that he didn't pay attention and was sneak punched by Cao Hongchang.

...She will definitely laugh at him!

Mei Qingyao closed her eyes as if she were dead.

However, the ridicule he imagined did not come.

He opened his eyes and saw the little stepmother putting down the backpack she was carrying and rummaging through it.

Finally, she was actually asked to dig out a piece of grass vine.

When Mei Qingyao saw the woman, she put the piece of grass and vine into her mouth and started chewing it.

Before he understood anything, he saw the woman spit out the chewed herbal medicine on her hand, and then with lightning speed, she paste the herbal medicine on his neck and wiped it on his neck.

Mei Qingyao was about to turn to stone!

Mei Qingyu and Mei Qingyu were responsible for holding down one of Cao Hongchang's followers, two of them beat one, and they were brothers. They had a tacit understanding, so they obviously didn't suffer much, and even their clothes were not messed up.

Mei Qingyu also clenched his fists when Qiao Huaping got angry and asked He Jin at the beginning, thinking that Qiao Huaping was going to hit people for no reason like before.

Since then, he has been watching Qiao Huaping's various activities with cold eyes.

But these were beyond his expectations, and Mei Qingyu looked a little confused.

Seeing Qiao Huaping smearing a lot of chewed-up stuff on his elder brother's neck, he finally couldn't help but ask, "What is this?"

Qiao Huaping glanced at Mei Qingyu.

The wariness and vigilance in this kid's eyes were about to turn into knives.

Still like this now, the curious look that can't help but ask out loud is more pleasing to the eye.

"This is called Hemp and Blood Vine. When applied externally, it has the effect of activating blood circulation and removing blood stasis." Qiao Huaping smiled and raised the paste in his hand, showing it to Mei Qingyu, "Do you want some?"

Mei Qingyu took a step back. , shook his head firmly.

However, Qiao Huaping took a step forward without hesitation and shouted: "Don't move, let me check to

see if you are injured." Mei Qingyu was held by Qiao Huaping's hand and checked up and down, left and right.

His face turned red with shame, and he looked to his elder brother Mei Qingyao for help.

Mei Qingyao probably saw that his always smart brother was so weak, pitiful and helpless, so he let out a happy chuckle.

Mei Qingyu: "..."

He was held down by Qiao Huaping and checked again with no expression on his face.

Fortunately, he was very alert in the previous fight and was not injured.

Qiao Huaping let go and grabbed Mei Qinghuang again.

Mei Qinghuang let out an "ouch" and wanted to run away.

But Qiao's painting speed was too fast, and he directly grabbed Mei Qinghuang.

Qiao Huaping smiled conspiratorially: "Huanghuang, I've seen it. Did you get punched over there?"

Mei Qinghuang let out another "ouch", thinking that Qiao Huaping had really seen it, so he hurriedly covered his head. He held his left shoulder.

Mei Qingyu: "..."

How could he have such a stupid brother?

The shoulder was covered by clothes and was injured. How could the little stepmother see it? ?

This is deceiving him!

Fortunately for him, he took the initiative to expose his fraud!

Qiao Huaping smiled meaningfully: "Oh, so it's here."

"..." Mei Qinghuang was weak, pitiful and helpless as Qiao Huaping tore the clothes off his shoulders and burned the herbs on his shoulders.

After applying herbs to the three fighters, Qiao Huaping wiped his hands with tree leaves, wiped off the herbs on his hands, and then pulled Mei Qingying, who was standing beside him, into his arms.

Mei Qingying hesitated but did not avoid it.

"Yingying, tell me, why did Cao Hongchang bully you?"

Unlike the other three brats, Qiao Huaping's voice was extremely gentle. She hugged Mei Qingying and asked in a low voice.

Mei Qingying's big, round eyes quickly filled with tears: "He grabbed Yingying's water bag. He also pulled Yingying's hair...Brother, beat him!"

Qiao Huaping saw that the little girl in her arms was aggrieved, and she described her efforts in a tearful tone. Her heart felt like it had been kneaded into a ball, hurting and sore.

"You dare to bully our Yingying!" Qiao Huaping was furious and cursed, "You can even bully such a cute little girl. She is simply not human! You guys fought well!"

Brothers Mei Qingyao, Mei Qingyu, and Mei Qinghuang All three were stunned.

They never expected that the little stepmother would say this!

At this moment, a burst of crying and screaming gradually came closer from a distance. It was obviously the man complaining to others as he walked: "Village chief, you have to make the decision for our brother Jiachang. Look, you Look, how badly our brother Chang was beaten, his face is so bruised! Our brother Chang has suffered a lot! ... If those bastards weren't holding us back, they would have beaten us. Iâll beat him to death!â

Chapter 14: Looking back, I will gather some grass and say it will cure all diseases!

The village chief who was pulled over felt his head grow bigger.

It had only been two days since he had been on the run. On the first day, Mrs. Xu was howling and accusing Mrs. Qiao. Although Mrs. Qiao later proved her innocence, these extraneous things always made people upset. He did not expect that the second time Another day, a mother-in-law from the Cao family came to complain, saying that her son was almost beaten to death by a child from the Mei family!

The village chief was also very angry.

He had been traveling all morning and was tired and panting due to the sun. Unfortunately, there were many elderly people suffering from heat in the village. He couldn't rest. He was running back and forth with Dr. Zhu. His busy feet did not touch the ground and he was tired. There is only one breath left.

When she was full of anxiety, it happened that the Cao family woman came to complain, saying that the children of the Mei family had beaten her son badly. He was too tired and had no strength, so she had to be pulled over by the Cao family woman. .

When I arrived, I saw that Qiao Huaping was waiting there with a few children, who seemed to have something to say.

The village chief was panting: "What the hell is going on?"

When Qiao Huaping saw the village chief, he looked filled with indignation. He took a step forward and stunned the village chief with his first words.

"Village Chief, Cao Hongchang almost killed half of the people in our village!"

Mrs. Gao, the mother-in-law of the Cao family, did not expect that Ms. Qiao, who had always been cruel and ruthless, would be so vicious in her first words!

Even the cubs of the Mei family were stunned.

This little stepmother of theirs is so brave to say that!

"You vicious bitch, what are you talking about!" Mrs. Gao reacted, her face turned purple with anger, and she was about to tear up Qiao Huaping, "I'll tear up your excrement-spouting mouth! "

The villagers who had previously held Mei Qingyao to prevent him from hitting Cao Hongchang, now quickly stopped Gao.

It's not that they were facing Qiao Huaping. After all, the sickle Qiao Huaping threw earlier was still clearly stuck in the tree trunk!

When Qiao Huaping saw villager He Jin and the others consciously stopping Gao, he snorted and continued to preemptively complain to the village chief.

"Village Chief, you don't even know what that naughty kid Cao Hongchang did if I didn't tell you!" Qiao Huaping obviously has some acting skills. After all, as the leader of the special agent team, he often carries out tasks. In addition to his strong strength, , but also have superb acting skills.

Her tears came easily, and her black and white pupils were full of grief and anger, as if she had suffered some great injustice.

Itâs going to snow in June!

How did the village chief know that such sinister acting skills existed in this world? He was so frightened that he asked, "What did he do?"

Crystal tears shone in the corners of Qiao Huaping's eyes, and she burst into tears, her emotions moving to heaven!

"ââHe took away the life-saving medicinal tea I had prepared for those who had fever in the village and spilled it all!"

As soon as Qiao Huaping said this, the village chief and the villagers present were shocked. Stayed.

Gao was also frightened for a moment, but she quickly reacted and cursed angrily: "How dare you say that, little hoof! And life-saving herbal tea?! Just you?! Don't be so shameless!" My face is so shiny! I asked our brother Chang before he came! He just wanted you to ask for water! What if you spilled some water? Is your water still made of gold? "

If the villagers hadn't pulled her away, she would have rushed up and tore Qiao Huaping's mouth open right now!

The village chief also felt that it was outrageous. He coughed and suppressed his discomfort: "Ms. Qiao, you..."

Qiao Huaping said righteously: "Village chief, you just heard me. Mrs. Gao admitted it. Cao Hongchang started trouble! And He Jin and the others can prove that it was Cao Hongchang who made the move first! "

He Jin and the others were sweating, this Qiao family is waiting for them here!

Gao was pulled by the villagers, struggling non-stop, wanting to go up and tear Qiao Huaping's mouth apart: "It's just a little water, if you spill it, it will be spilled! You have to be here talking about life-saving medicinal tea! You heartless little boy Hooves!"

The hot sunlight shone through the branches, and Gao was cursing and noisy again. The village chief, who was already exhausted physically and mentally, felt dizzy, his feet went weak, and he stumbled. If it weren't for Qiao Huaping, He grabbed the handle and fell down.

"Village Chief!"

The village chief of Liujin Village sat weakly on the ground, leaning against a tree trunk. His eyes were dizzy, his limbs were weak, and there was faint cold sweat oozing out of his head. It looked like he had a fever.

The villagers rushed to call Zhu Xiangyi over.

Zhu Xiangyi came over in a hurry, and after just one look, he concluded: "It's a fever." He quickly poured out a pill from the medicine bottle, and took off the water bag from his waist to show it to the village chief. Take it with water.

But the village chief's face was still tense when he saw it, and he was sitting in the shade, extremely weak.

Several villagers were very nervous.

The village chief is well-informed and is their pillar of support on the road to escape. Hundreds of villagers in Liujin Village are counting on him, so nothing happens to him!

Zhu Xiangyi sighed and said: "The effect of this medicine is relatively mild and the onset of effect is slow. If you have a fever, you should rest more."

Gao on the side rolled his eyes and suddenly slapped his thigh: "Isn't that the prodigal hoof of Mrs. Qiao just now?" "Does she have any life-saving medicinal tea for treating fever?"

She grinned happily, "Let her treat it for the village chief!"

Qiao Huaping sneered: "Just give me the remaining medicinal tea. " Your son has lied, and you still have the nerve to say it!"

Gao's expression changed, and just as he was about to curse again, Qiao Huaping changed his voice: "However, I just saw that there were many people with fever in the village, so I went to the wild fruit forest. I picked a lot of herbs and came back. I can brew some according to the recipe... I hope nothing happens to me when I brew this herbal tea!"

Mrs. Gao didn't believe it and sneered: "Okay, you can brew it while I do it. Want to see!"

Zhu Xiangyi also became interested and watched Qiao Huaping quickly start the fire and then throw the herbs in the basket into the pot.

Mrs. Gao looked at it and curled her lips, and sneered at the side: "I grabbed a few handfuls of grass and boiled it, and then I said it could cure fever! What a shame! Then I went to grab a few handfuls of grass and boil it, and I said I could cure all diseases. Here!"

Qiao Huaping glanced at her, chuckled, and said nothing.

The medicinal tea was ready quickly.

The aroma of herbal tea is unique and rich. Just a whiff of it makes people refreshed and refreshing.

Gao's expression changed slightly.

Zhu Xiangyi was hesitating about how to ask Qiao Huaping for a bowl to see the effect of the medicine, when he saw Qiao Huaping take out a bowl with a crack and fill it with a bowl of medicinal tea and hand it to him generously. Said: "Doctor Zhu, do you want to help me take a look first?... I'm afraid that someone will say later that I brewed it randomly and that the herbal tea is poisonous. Then I really can't defend myself."

Zhu Xiangyi was a little embarrassed. In fact, he also had this worry. .

But Qiao Huaping's eyebrows were clear and his expression was calm. He was obviously honest and did not care about this at all.

The breeze blew by, blowing away the hair on Qiao Huaping's face, and the birthmark that occupied half of his face. Zhu Xiangyi was stunned and felt that the birthmark on Qiao Huaping's face seemed to be lighter.

He looked away with some embarrassment and took the bowl of medicinal tea.

Chapter 15 Distributing Medicinal Tea

Before the medicinal tea was in his mouth, Zhu Xiangyi held the bowl, took a deep sniff, and nodded secretly in his heart.

This smell, smelling it, can make people feel hotter and cooler, and it should be unmistakable.

He couldn't help but take a taste.

At first, I only felt that the medicinal tea was slightly bitter in the mouth, but before this slight bitterness came up from the tip of my tongue, I already tasted the sweetness of licorice.

These two flavors, mixed together, form an extremely strange taste enjoyment - the tea soup slides into the throat, and the refreshing feeling almost comes from the bone marrow, and the whole person's spirit is lifted. .

At the first sip, Zhu Xiangyi was so attracted by the taste of the herbal tea that he forgot to taste the ingredients of the herbal tea!

"Doctor Zhu, how are you?" Qiao Huaping asked with a smile.

Zhu Xiangyi coughed lightly: "Let me try it again."

"Please." Qiao Huaping nodded.

Seeing Qiao Huaping's confident look, Mrs. Gao couldn't help but squeeze her son Cao Hongchang's hand.

Cao Hongchang hissed and complained loudly: "Mom, you are hurting me!"

Qiao Huaping glanced over with a light gaze, seemingly with a sarcastic smile.

Gao's face turned green and red.

Zhu Xiangyi was already tasting the ingredients of the herbal tea.

Gradually, Zhu Xiangyi's face showed a bit of excitement, and he couldn't help but exclaimed "Wonderful!"

He Jin quickly asked: "Doctor Zhu, this herbal tea..."

Zhu Xiangyi was excited and excited: "The pharmacological combination of this herbal tea complements each other, it's quite magical! It's not that I'm bragging, this herbal tea does have the effect of reducing heat and relieving summer heat. It has the effect of quenching thirst and promoting fluid production, reducing dryness and refreshing the mind. It is indeed a life-saving agent for treating fever! Even people who are not sick can effectively prevent fever after drinking it!"

He Jin was overjoyed after hearing this! Although he didn't know a word about Douda, he was still somewhat knowledgeable. Naturally, he knew how important this herbal tea was to the people of Liujin Village in this situation!

Zhu Xiangyi couldn't help but look at Qiao Huaping: "Sister Qiao's family, this herbal tea..."

Qiao Huaping's thin willow-leaf eyebrows curved: "Since it is effective, Dr. Zhu, please let the village chief drink it quickly."

He Jin was attentive . He was so excited that he quickly supported the village chief and fed him the medicinal tea.

The village chief had rested in the shade for a long time, and as soon as this wonderful herbal tea entered the throat, people felt refreshed all over. Not long after drinking it, the village chief regained his energy and opened his eyes. , looked at Qiao Huaping with a somewhat complicated expression.

Qiao Huaping was not the kind of person who made sacrifices without expecting anything in return. She smiled and raised her eyebrows: "Village Chief, I didn't tell a lie, did I?"

The village chief couldn't help but ask: "Where did you get this powerful prescription? " Got it? "

The Qiao family's natal village is only a few hills away from theirs, so he knows something about the situation there.

No one in Qiaoâs family knows medicine, so where did they learn this recipe?

Since Qiao Huaping dared to put this medicinal tea in the open, she said that she had already prepared it. She said mysteriously: "Just before, once I went into the mountains and rescued a gray-haired old man in the mountains. Perhaps the old man saw my kindness and taught me how to treat fevers. Itâs the first time Iâve tried it today. Our whole family has tried it, and itâs really effective!â

She glanced at Gao and Cao Hongchang, curling her lips, âSuch a life-saving thing. , but someone accidentally spilled it!"

The efficacy of this herbal tea is obvious to all. Even the arrogant Gao family has nothing to say. He can only defend his son with a face: "Brother Chang is still young, how can he know how to save lives? The medicinal tea!"

The village chief asked He Jin to help him stand up. He glanced at Cao Hongchang, who had a bruised nose and swollen face, and then looked aside, and took out the five members of the Mei family's medicinal tea, which had miraculous effects on fever.

"Okay, this is Brother Chang's fault." The village chief coughed twice, "If you break other people's things, you deserve a beating."

Wherever Gao was willing to comply, his voice suddenly became louder: "What do you mean, our Brother Chang's beating was in vain?!"

He frowned and warned: "If you think it's unfair, then you Cao family can go on your own."

Just this sentence made the Gao family The rising anger was suppressed.

Mr. Gao's face turned blue and white. He gritted his teeth and grabbed Cao Hongchang's hand: "Okay! Let's go!"

Cao Hongchang was still a little reluctant. After being dragged by Mr. Gao for a long distance, he almost rolled on the ground. : "Mom, did I really get beaten in vain?!"

Mrs. Gao looked at her son's green and red face, feeling extremely distressed and couldn't help cursing: "That old immortal, usually your uncle is here He is on duty in the county government, so he looks down upon us! Now that we are running away, we, the Cao family, are not paying attention! I am really angry that we have to look at him while we are running away

! He also scolded: "Those nuisances in the Mei family, I will give them a good beating next time!"

The two of them scolded each other for a long time, but in the end they had no choice but to return with hatred.

On the other side, Zhu Xiangyi and several strong villagers like He Jin hurriedly distributed the medicinal tea cooked by Qiao Huaping.

The main thing is to focus on those who have fever symptoms first.

When distributing the medicinal tea, Zhu Xiangyi did not forget to say: "This is cooked by a girl from the Qiao family. I have seen it, and it is indeed effective."

Most of the villagers who heard this showed an unbelievable look: "Mr. Qiao's "

There are many people with mixed surnames in the village, but there is no one named Qiao.

That is to say, before, the head of the Mei family married Mrs. Qiao, and the identity document of Mrs. Qiao also came to Liujin Village. Only then did Liujin Village have such a person named Qiao.

Zhu Xiangyi practices medicine in the village, so he naturally knows that the people in Liujin Village have a bad opinion of Qiao Huaping.

But he is a doctor, and aside from other things, the medicinal tea that Qiao Huaping brewed is indeed very suitable for the disease.

Naturally, he wanted to help Qiao Huaping clear her name: "Yes, it's her. The village chief and I have already tried the medicine, and it's very effective."

Zhu Xiangyi has a very good reputation in villages and towns. He said this, no After some hesitation, the villagers reluctantly believed it.

However, after drinking this bowl of herbal tea, their worries were gone at all with the refreshing feeling that was soothing and refreshing all over their bodies.

Zhu Xiangyi had a faint smile in his eyes.

Soon, the big pot of herbal tea was all gone, and some were not enough.

Qiao Huaping didn't complain. She poured out the medicinal residue and made another pot of medicinal tea.

This time, she asked several children from the Mei family to help deliver it.

Because the effect of the previous pot of herbal tea was almost immediately confirmed, this time several children from the Mei family brought the herbal tea over without any effort. Those who had the fever hurriedly took it and drank it. He drank it in a gulp.

The children of the Mei family also received many sincere thanks.

Mei Qingyao and Mei Qinghuang didn't think much about it, they just felt very happy.

However, Mei Qingyu couldn't help but look back at the little stepmother who was hiding in the shade of the forest.

Chapter 16: Dilute the spiritual water and distribute it to the children.

Qiao Huaping didn't know that Mei Qingyu had already beautified her with complicated emotions.

She didn't go because it was too hot!

Qiao Huaping felt that he had made his own contribution in collecting and brewing herbs, which was enough. It was very hot today and it was time for her to rest.

There's no harm in giving the kids some exercise.

Qiao Huaping felt very at ease and found a shady place to rest.

By the way, while no one was paying attention, her thoughts sank into space.

Sure enough, with the stalactites as the center, the fog dispersed slightly, revealing more land.

A blood-seeking sorrow and a clear-hearted grass have taken root in this fertile land, spreading their branches and leaves without any wind.

A drop of crystal clear spiritual water was lying quietly in the suspended stone bowl.

This was the spiritual water that dripped from the stalactites when she put the rare medicine Xue Jianchou, whose whole plant could be used as medicine, into the space.

Knowing that this water droplet has an excellent effect on the human body, Qiao Huaping immediately decided to take the photo. There are four children in the Mei family. When the time comes, she will dilute this drop of spiritual water in water and give it to the four children to drink. She will first improve the children's health, otherwise there will be an escape route later, in case any of the weak chickens gets sick. , very difficult to handle.

Having made up his mind, Qiao Huaping added the drop of spiritual water to the water bag in his hand and shook it.

After a while, the four children came back covered in sweat.

Qiao Huaping waved with a smile: "Come on, come on."

The four children had just received thank yous one after another, and they were very happy. Even Mei Qingyu, who was the deepest in the city, also raised the corners of his mouth, obviously in a good mood.

As soon as Qiao Huaping called them, among the four children, even Mei Qingyao, who had always disliked Qiao Huaping, did not hesitate and came to Qiao Huaping obediently.

Qiao Huaping kindly handed the water bag directly to Mei Qingying: "Drink some, it will relieve the fever."

Mei Qingying did not doubt that he was there, and took several sips of the water bag, with a smile on her face. She smiled: "It tastes good!" After

Mei Qingying finished drinking, she handed the water bag to Mei Qingyao who was nearest to her.

Mei Qingyao didn't say anything like "poisoning" this time, and then took a few sips.

Several children took turns drinking it.

Mei Qinghuang licked his lips, his eyes sparkling: "I feel that this herbal tea tastes even better than the previous one! As soon as it enters my stomach, I feel that my whole body is full of strength!"

Qiao Huaping lied to the child without any psychological burden: "Oh, I put more licorice to make it sweeter."

None of the children raised any suspicion. After a while, the second child, Mei Qingyu, moved her nose and her face changed slightly.

He smelled a stink...

Qiao Huaping made an exaggerated look: "Wow, you are all sweating!"

All four children blushed.

Mei Qingyao's handsome little face was filled with embarrassment, and she was almost dying of shame and anger.

He stammered to defend himself and his younger siblings: "The weather is so hot..."

"Yes, it's too hot." Qiao Huaping nodded in agreement and made another suggestion, "There is a creek over there in the forest. You want to Why don't you go and take a bath at the stream downstream?"

Mei Qingyao didn't say a word, but she grabbed her younger siblings and ran towards the stream.

Qiao Huaping held down Mei Qingying.

The little girl was a little shy and wanted to break free from Qiao Huaping's hand: "Yingying, you stink."

Qiao Huaping said: "It's okay, I don't mind. Yingying, you are a little girl, what are you doing with those three stinky boys? ? I'll take you to take a shower."

Mei Qingyao couldn't help but stare at Qiao Huaping again.

Qiao Huaping said: "You brat, what are you looking at? Don't worry, I know you don't trust me, so I will take Yingying to wash near you."

Mei Qingyao muttered something, but did not object again.

The mountain stream flows through the rocks, gurgling.

The water flow is not big, but the water is clear and cold, which makes people happy to see it.

Qiao Huaping took a few children to find a deserted place downstream. The three boys couldn't wait to wash themselves in the stream water with their hands.

Qiao Huaping pulled Mei Qingying behind a larger rock and gave the little girl a bath.

After taking a bath, Mei Qingying looked white and clean, looking at Qiao Huaping with a pair of wet eyes like a deer.

Probably due to the effect of that drop of spiritual water, the little girl's skin now looks white with red, delicate and white.

The little knot on the head looks more erect.

Qiao Huaping couldn't hold back, hugged Mei Qingying and gave the little girl a slap on the face.

Mei Qingying turned her eyes shyly.

After the four children took a bath, they all looked refreshed and their spirits were much better than before.

Qiao Huaping couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction.

It seems that the effect of the water droplets dripping from the stalactite is immediate.

A healthy body is the capital to escape from famine!

...

Because the herbal tea distributed for free by Qiao Huaping was indeed very effective in treating and preventing fever, not many villagers in Liujin Village fell ill.

In addition, after half a day of repairs, most of the people recovered their strength. When the sun was not so strong in the afternoon, the villagers of Liujin Village embarked on the journey to escape from the famine again.

Because of the herbal tea, the villagers in Liujin Village had a slightly better attitude towards Qiao Huaping. At least they were no longer as easy to treat Qiao Huaping as before.

Qiao Huaping and Mei Qingyao still took turns pushing the cart.

Mei Qingying walked obediently to the side of the cart with her short legs.

There was a thin layer of sweat on the little girl's forehead, but she didn't feel tired or bitter.

Qiao Huaping was very interested in the little girl: "My dear, are you tired? Get in the car and push you for a while?"

Mei Qingying shook her head and silently refused.

The sky was getting dark quickly, and it was very dangerous to walk on the mountain road in the dark. The village chief planned to have people set up camp for repairs.

But there was no cave nearby. The village chief led a team of young adults to search for a long time, and finally had to settle on a flat land under a ridge.

At least the terrain is stable and far away from the woods. There are relatively few insects, ants, snakes, and even wild beasts.

The villagers were all very tired and each looked for a place to sit and rest.

Some fastidious people started to light up the stove, while others who were too tired just settled for a meal with dry food and pickles.

Qiao Huaping asked Mei Qingyao to move stones and build a simple stove.

Although Mei Qingyao was a little reluctant to be manipulated by Qiao Huaping all the time, he also knew that Qiao Huaping was not the only one to build the stove. He still moved a few stones and followed Qiao Huaping's instructions to build a simple stove. stove.

There was no water nearby, so Qiao Huaping filled a pot with the clean water he had fetched from the stream earlier.

Then, she pretended to put her hand into the sack, took out the roasted rabbit skeleton left over from yesterday's meal, threw it into the pot, and made a pot of thick rabbit bone soup - Qiao Huaping conveniently put some of the leftover roasted rabbit bones in it. The herbs found in the forest are used as condiments, and they are actually fragrant.

The aroma was a bit unreasonable and went straight into people's noses. The nearby villagers looked at Qiao Huaping with some resentment.

Chapter 17: Dried Fish for Rabbit Bone Soup

Several children from the Mei family squatted beside their stove, breathing hard.

Qiao Huaping chuckled and filled a bowl for each child. He also took out some dry biscuits from his bag and distributed them to several children.

The children broke open the dry biscuits, soaked them in the fragrant rabbit bone soup, and ate the soup cakes deliciously.

After the meal, there was still some soup left in the pot.

There was a man who had been looking towards Mei's house, so he couldn't hold himself back anymore and came over.

He didn't come empty-handed, he brought a dried fish that he had dried at home.

Even so, he was still a little uncomfortable facing Qiao Huaping, who was notorious throughout the village.

"Sister Qiao..." The man tried his best to force out a smile, "My wife is still breastfeeding, and smelling your bone soup today, she is really greedy... But I will give it to her for a while. I can't get it out."

He moved the dried fish forward in a flattering manner, "...can I exchange a bowl of soup with you?"

the man said nervously.

Qiao Huaping sighed inwardly.

The original owner's previous reputation was really bad, so it's no wonder this man is so reserved.

But then again, this man is willing to eat for his wife, even if he is facing a "evil woman" like her, he can show off his face in exchange for something. Just for this, Qiao Huaping recognized him as a man.

Qiao Huaping showed a kind smile and agreed simply: "Okay, why not. Do you have a bowl?"

The man was stunned for a moment, then he immediately reacted, "Hey" twice, turned around and ran away.

As a result, halfway through the run, he seemed to remember something again, ran back, and stuffed the dried fish he was carrying into Mei Qingyao's hand: "Ah Yao, take it!"

Without waiting for Mei Qingyao's reaction, he said again I have to run towards his house.

Qiao Huaping stopped him: "Wait!"

She strode forward and handed the pot directly to the man.

"My family is full," Qiao Huaping said with a smile, "There isn't much left in this pot, so just take it all. Just bring the pot to me later."

The man came back to his senses and thanked him profusely. He took the pot and left.

When I left, I was still a little dizzy.

Everyone said that Mr. Qiao was very vicious, but he really didn't expect that he could be so easy to talk to.

Thinking about the fact that she had brewed herbal tea earlier and made people all over the village... The man decided that it was all a misunderstanding in the past, and Mrs. Qiao is a good person!

Mei Qingyao also didn't expect that Qiao Huaping would be so kind.

Dried fish is not a rare thing, especially if it is dried in the sun, it is salty and smells bad.

But rabbit bone soup is a serious meat and fish soup.

Mei Qingyao held up the dried fish in her hand, a little confused: "This..."

Qiao Huaping glanced at it, picked up a leaf from the side, washed it with water from the water bag, wrapped the dried fish, and put it on her body In the bag: "Dried fish is a good thing. Keep it well and it will last a long time!"

Mei Qingyao thought thoughtfully.

Because they were doing repairs in the open air tonight, after eating, Mei Qingyao took the initiative to go to the forest to cut some grass, vines and other things for paving.

The other three children also volunteered to follow their eldest brother.

Qiao Huaping was so happy that he was lazy.

When the man returned the pot, he had already washed it clean, and there was still a handful of wild fruits in the pot.

It's not something expensive, but it's better because it's someone's heart.

Qiao Huaping actually likes this kind of goodwill that comes and goes.

When Mei Qingyao and his younger brothers and sisters came back with a large ball of vine grass, Qiao Huaping stuffed a wild fruit into their mouths one by one: "That uncle just now brought it when returning the pot. I just ate one. , I think it's quite refreshing. Come on, try it. "

The wild fruit is not sweet, and is even a little sour, but for some reason, the children feel that the wild fruit that the little stepmother stuffed into their mouths has a very unique flavor. The taste makes them feel sweet in their hearts.

The evening breeze was blowing gently, and that night, whether it was because the spiritual water had transformed the body or for other reasons, the children all slept very soundly.

Have a good night's sleep.

The next day, before dawn, the villagers of Liujin Village took their children and their families with them and embarked on the mountain road to escape from the famine.

Yesterday, because the sun was too hot, they didn't go too far. The village chief and several clan elders worked together, so this definitely wouldn't work.

I donât know when the military disaster will catch up, so I have to leave the place of right and wrong as soon as possible.

So, they slightly changed their itinerary and started on their way before dawn. When the sun was at its hottest, they found a shady place to rest. When the sun went down, they continued on their way.

Mei Qingyao pushed the trolley and muttered to her second brother Mei Qingyu with a puzzled look on her face: "...Is it because I have eaten meat these days? Why do I feel like I have endless energy in my body. Pushing this The car is no longer tiring."

Mei Qingyu nodded: "Brother, I feel the same way, I feel a lot stronger."

Qiao Huaping followed along, listening to the two children chattering about their strength . The big reason is that she has no expression on her face, but she is very beautiful in her heart.

The spiritual fruit dripping from the stalactite is indeed a wonderful thing.

She had only taken one drop before, and all the pain in her body disappeared. Her ears and eyes were clear, and her strength also increased a lot.

Several of the kids looked the same.

If they take it every day in the future, who knows how powerful it will be?

Qiao Huaping thought about it and couldn't help but glance into the space.

The Xue Jianchou and the White Heart Grass are growing very well, but the small stone bowl under the stalactite is empty.

Looking at the stalactites again, since yesterday, a drop of water has been condensed on the tip of the stalactites. Today, it is still the same as yesterday. It is about to fall and there is no progress.

Qiao Huaping is very patient and she is not in a hurry.

Right now, I have enough physical strength to cope with the rush.

On the third day of the escape, nothing happened.

Because they adjusted their strategies, avoided the hot midday heat, and took more breaks, the villagers were able to keep up, and no one fell ill again.

However, although no one fell ill, they had been on the road for three days. Even the strongest villagers were a little overwhelmed, let alone some old people and children who were already weak in physical strength.

Many people are exhausted.

But the members of the Mei family, whether it was Qiao Huaping or the children of the Mei family, all looked in high spirits.

It makes people envious when they see it.

Many people think that perhaps because they eat meat, their physical strength naturally keeps up.

Thinking of this, when they rested in the evening, many people gritted their teeth and took out the bacon or bacon they had brought at home, and made a fairly sumptuous meal.

This night, it can be said that the meat is delicious.

Because Qiao Huaping took advantage of the fact that there was still some daylight, she went for a walk in the forest and dug some herbs. She didn't have time to cook first. When she returned, she saw Cao Hongchang bringing a bowl of cabbage stewed with bacon. The four Zaizai ate in front of them, smacking their lips while eating.

Chapter 18 Who said Mrs. Qiao is a vicious stepmother?

The eldest Mei Qingyao sneered at Cao Hongchang, while the second eldest Mei Qingyu didn't even look at it and took his younger sister Mei Qingying to rest aside. However, the third child, Mei Qinghuang, was a foodie. At this moment, she was eagerly looking at Cao Hongchang's bowl of cabbage stewed with bacon, but she refused to show weakness in front of Cao Hongchang. She stubbornly turned her head to prevent herself from showing her greedy look.

But the tight little chin, and the red eyes from holding it in, looked a bit aggrieved.

Qiao Huaping couldn't bear it anymore.

She put the basket on the ground and ignored Cao Hongchang. She turned to Mei Qingyao and said, "Yaoyao, go build a stove and light a fire."

Sister-in-law Song, who had finished cooking not far away, stood up and glanced here. After hesitating for a moment, he still said, "Come and use my stove. The fire is still a little hot."

Sister-in-law Song's mother-in-law, Mrs. Zhou Xu, showed a bit of dissatisfaction on her face. She was still thinking about the pickles she had brought in exchange for them last time. Qiao Huaping's roast rabbit was rejected by Qiao Huaping.

Mrs. Zhou Xu smiled softly and said, "That's very generous. I'm sorry you didn't pick up this firewood. You don't feel sorry for my son, but I still feel sorry for my son."

Sister-in-law Song stood there looking a little embarrassed. She was extremely embarrassed.

There is firewood all over the mountains and plains, just pick some at random, no matter how much effort it takes.

Qiao Huaping glanced at Song Yuelan, smiled and thanked Sister-in-law Song for her kindness: "It's okay, sister-in-law, we can just go there now, it won't take much effort."

There were also villagers nearby who remembered Qiao Huaping's kindness in making herbal tea. Seeing the commotion here, she greeted Qiao Huaping enthusiastically: "Hey, what a big deal, big sister, come to my place to cook." She didn't forget to stab Zhou Xu, "I can't even light the firewood, it's really... She is really petty."

This eldest sister's surname is Du, and she is very enthusiastic.

As he spoke, he stood up and wanted to help Qiao Huaping and the other guys get the cooking guy.

This makes Zhou Xu even more stingy.

After all, Song Yuelan was also a member of the Zhou family, and her face turned red with shame.

Mrs. Zhou Xu even snorted coldly: "If I didn't blindly agree in the first place, this wouldn't be a problem."

The daughters-in-law in other rooms of the Zhou family all stood aside without saying a word, happily watching Song Yuelan's joke.

The man who prefers Song Yuelan is still urging her in a low voice, forget it, my mother has that temper.

Song Yuelan was so angry that she walked away quickly.

As for Qiao Huaping, she told the enthusiastic Sister Du that she still had some things left in the woods, and turned back to the woods.

Cao Hongchang followed him with his bowl of cabbage and bacon, and he didn't forget to fan the bowl with his hand to smell the smell, deliberately greedy for the plum blossoms: "It's so fragrant! Haven't you started cooking tonight? That can't be the case. Can you make some paste? Itâs so miserable if you donât have a father or a mother!â

âWhat are you talking about!â Mei Qingyao clenched her fist and tried to hit someone.

"Yao Yao!"

Qiao Huaping called out as he walked out of the forest. Mei Qingyao subconsciously looked over and saw that Qiao Huaping was holding a fat pheasant with a broken neck in his hand!

Mei Qingyao was stunned!

When Mei Qinghuang saw the pheasant, he remembered the pheasant that Qiao Huaping cooked a few days ago before he set off to escape.

It was so fragrant that he even drank two bowls of soup!

Even the fingers dipped in chicken soup were licked clean!

Cao Hongchang was so angry that he almost dropped his bowl!

Sister Du came up in surprise: "Oh, this pheasant is really fat. Sister, where did you catch it from?"

Qiao Huaping pointed to the forest with her free hand. He smiled and said, "In the forest, I was lucky. I met a stupid guy who didn't even run when he saw me. I jumped on him and broke his neck... I was too tired when I came back just now, and the chicken was very heavy." When I couldn't carry it, I put it on the edge of the forest temporarily. I didn't want to put down the backpack first and then go back to get it. "

Of course, this pheasant was caught and thrown into the space by Qiao Huaping before. I just went to the woods to do a show and secretly took the pheasants out of the space behind people's backs.

Due to the preservation function of the space, the chicken seemed to have just died, but no one raised any suspicion.

Sister Du did not become suspicious and helped Qiao Huaping weigh the pheasant. She was happy for Qiao Huaping and said, "Hey, this wild pheasant is very fat. I estimate it weighs six or seven pounds!"

Qiao Huaping smiled.

There was no water source nearby, so Qiao Huaping used the water she had previously stored in the water bag and boiled the water with Sister Du's wild stove. Then she bled the pheasant, removed its feathers and removed its internal organs, all in one go with a skillful technique.

This time she still made chicken soup. She reached out and took out some mushrooms that she had picked earlier, and sprinkled them into the pot. She didn't need to add too many other ingredients. The aroma was so strong that you could almost see it.

The four children of the Mei family squatted beside the stove, staring eagerly.

After the chicken was cooked, Qiao Huaping waved his hand and filled a bowl for each of the four children.

Although Cao Hongchang had escaped long ago, Qiao Huaping never let him go like this.

She sneered and asked the four children to carry their bowls of chicken to Cao Hongchang's place to eat.

Mei Qingyu's eyes were shining, and he and the other three children squatted on the windward side of Cao's house, holding a bowl and eating happily.

The fragrant smell of chicken soup wafted unceremoniously into the Cao family's noses.

Even though the Cao family had just cooked a meal of cabbage and bacon stew before, the meat and vegetables were all destined for the escape route. Even if they made a hearty meal, they didn't say that there was enough meat for everyone to eat.

But the four children of the Mei family are different. The chicken in the bowl is piled up to the top, and it seems that they are willing to give it to the children to eat and drink!

She gave birth to four children and all of them ate with gusto, which made peopleâs appetites increase greatly.

No one will be greedy after watching it!

The Cao family is so angry!

Cao Hongchang even wanted to take action.

But Cao Hongchang had already been warned by the village chief before he started fighting with Mei Qingyao. The Cao family did not dare to let Cao Hongchang bully anyone anymore, so they could only be left to the four children to get angry all night long.

Even though they had eaten a meaty meal, they felt like they had not eaten well inside and out. The Cao family was in trouble, and when I thought about it, they felt aggrieved and angry!

When the four children came back with empty bowls, they were all in high spirits.

Qiao Huaping also smiled happily.

Not to mention that she has no moral integrity, she actually has the good quality of not smacking her lips when others are hungry.

But Cao Hongchang came here deliberately to covet her Zaizai and seek his own death, so he can't blame her for fighting back, right? !

"More?" Qiao Huaping asked.

The four children said in unison: "Yes!"

Qiao Huaping raised her eyebrows: "Put it in your own pot."

Mei Qingyao was like a big brother. He served it to his younger siblings first, and then poured a bowl for himself.

Qiao Huaping, who had already eaten and drank enough, sat and watched with a smile.

Sister Du looked at this scene and sighed in her heart.

Who said Mrs. Qiao is a vicious stepmother?

Look, whose vicious stepmother can feed her children with meat in this era of war and chaos?

The rumors are really unbelievable!

The rumors that Xiao Qiao's character is not good are also not credible.

Xiao Qiao, just now saw her little girl sucking her fingers with greed, so she even gave her a bowl with several pieces of meat in it!

Apart from anything else, anyone who can eat someone's flesh on this escape route cannot be a bad person!

Thinking about Xiao Qiao's previous behavior of making medicinal tea for the villagers, Sister Du made her own judgment in her mind - if anyone dares to say that Xiao Qiao is not good in the future, she will be the first to stand up and refute!

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard the villagers nearby saying that Song Yuelan, the Zhou family's daughter-in-law, could not be found!

Chapter 19: Good people are rewarded.

It was completely dark now, and the summer breeze was blowing. You could still vaguely hear the Zhou family calling people around.

"It couldn't have been snatched away by some wild beast in the forest, right?"

"The forest is dark. If you were dragged in, how would you find it?"

"Shh, please keep your voice down. Look at Song Yuelan, her daughter, she's crying. It's terrible."

Qiao Huaping followed the words and saw Song Yuelan's eight-year-old daughter, Zhou Xiaoqing, crying and asking, "Have you seen my mother?"

The village chief sighed, and there was nothing he could do . A dozen young adults from the village were divided into three teams and carried torches into the forest to search.

Qiao Huaping thought for a while and asked Mei Qingyao to take care of his younger brothers and sisters and stop them from running around.

Mei Qingyu sat up straight, a little unbelievable: "What are you going to do?"

Qiao Huaping lowered his head to find a thick branch, then used a knife to cut a piece of bark from somewhere else, and made a simple torch.

She heard Mei Qingyu ask her and replied casually: "I will also go to the forest to take a look."

"Are you crazy?!" Mei Qingyao was shocked, "You are just blind, you are not afraid of wild beasts dragging you away. ? â Qiao Huaping raised an eyebrow

and smiled: âOh, Yao Yao, you donât care about me?â

Mei Qingyao immediately said: âYou can go if you want, I donât care!â

Seeing that Mei Qingyao was getting angry now, he stopped teasing the child and simply explained: "I saw it when I was looking for herbs in the forest before. There are no traces of large beasts in the forest, but there is one thing that is not quite right." It's an obvious slope. I probably still remember the location, so I went over to take a look."

As she spoke, little Mei Qingying turned around and ran towards the cart, hugging Qiao Huaping's long bow. Come over and hold the screen up to Qiao.

It means asking her to bring a longbow for self-defense.

Qiao Huaping was so moved that she hugged Mei Qingying and kissed her three times: "Oh, Yingying, my mother is such a good baby, so considerate."

Faced with such a cute Mei Qingying, Zaizai, Qiao Huaping is willing to be this old mother.

Mei Qingying was a little embarrassed, turned around and ran away from Qiao Huaping's arms.

Qiao Huaping laughed, put a long bow on his back, lit a fire on the unburned firewood in the stove, held a torch, and followed several young adults into the forest.

Although it was already dark, Qiao Huaping still remembered the rough route and went straight to the slope.

It was night, and the forest was so dense that the thin moonlight filtered through, which almost didn't help. It was all about the light from the torch.

ââIt stands to reason that this should be the case.

However, probably because he had taken the water droplets from the stalactite before, Qiao Huaping could see more clearly than ordinary people even in the dark night.

This was something she had discovered before. Holding a torch was just a cover up.

When she arrived near the slope, Qiao Huaping carefully distinguished the marks on the ground, and finally she discovered an obvious collapse.

This is a trace of a slip.

Qiao Huaping looked down hard.

However, the slope is a bit deep and the shrubs are very dense, so there is nothing visible.

"Sister-in-law Song?"

Qiao Huaping shouted several times.

No answer.

But thinking about it, if a person rolled down a slope, he would probably hit his head and faint.

Qiao Huaping was a nimble person, so she didn't hesitate. She reached into her robe and took out a hemp rope from the space. She tied one end to a nearby tree and tied the other end to her waist. She made a Secure the safety rope and slowly go down the slope along the trace.

Sure enough, at the bottom of the slope, Qiao Huaping discovered the unconscious Song Yuelan.

"Sister-in-law Song?" Qiao Huaping called softly, but there was no answer.

Qiao Huaping took a pulse.

As the leader of a special agent team, it is normal to be short of medical treatment and medicine when performing missions in the field.

Others dare not say that Qiao Huaping can be said to be a doctor after a long illness due to injuries caused by bruises.

As soon as she took a pulse, she felt relieved.

It is estimated that when he rolled down the slope, his head hit somewhere, causing a slight concussion and coma.

There were no serious injuries, so it wasn't a big problem.

Qiao Huaping breathed a sigh of relief and looked around, planning to climb up again and find someone to come down and rescue him.

When his eyes scanned somewhere, Qiao Huaping's eyes narrowed.

There, there is a large Ganoderma lucidum that is all red and looks great!

This is not over yet. Not far from this large Ganoderma lucidum tree, which is in excellent condition, there are clusters of smaller Ganoderma lucidum trees. The fragrance is overflowing and it looks very tempting!

Qiao Huaping's mouth was about to drool immediately.

She was not polite, took out the tools directly from the space, carefully dug out these Ganoderma lucidum, and put them all into the space.

In an instant, she could feel those Ganoderma lucidum taking root on the ground, and her space swayed slightly, and the fog clearly dispersed.

The open space centered on the stalactite is larger.

And the drop of spiritual water condensed on the stalactite fell into the stone bowl with a "pop".

Qiao Huaping was delighted.

Look, look, what is this called? It means good people are rewarded!

Song Yuelan took care of her four cubs. When Song Yuelan was in danger, she came to help. This is good news for good people.

And when she came to help Song Yuelan, she discovered such a large cluster of Ganoderma lucidum down the slope. This is also a good reward for good people!

...

Qiao Huaping climbed up the slope, called for someone to come, and carried the unconscious Song Yuelan back to the place where Liujin Village set up camp.

Doctor Zhu Xiangyi had made the bed and was ready to sleep. As soon as he heard the news, he hurried over with his medicine box.

Zhu Xiangyi's conclusion was similar to Qiao Huaping's. He said that the coma was caused by a concussion on the head. It was nothing serious and he just needed to rest more. After saying that, she didn't confiscate the five-coin consultation fee handed over by Song Yuelan's husband. She waved her hand and left with the medicine box.

Zhou Xiaoqing threw herself on her mother and cried loudly.

Mrs. Zhou Xu muttered dissatisfiedly on the side: "She is the only one with a lot of problems! If she runs out at night, the whole village will have to look for her..."

The daughters-in-law from other houses were also there to fan the flames: "That's right, everyone has been traveling all day. , I'm so tired, I still have to go find her."

"My mother hasn't slept with us yet!"

"I told you to stop crying. It's so late at night, and your mother is not dead. It's so unlucky to cry."

Zhou Xu also looked at Zhou Xiaoqing with great dissatisfaction.

Zhou Xiaoqing didn't dare to cry anymore. He suppressed it so much that his face turned red. He tried not to let himself cry out. His little body was twitching, and he looked quite pitiful.

Song Yuelan and her husband Zhou Heishi could not beat a fart with three sticks, but when he saw his daughter crying pitifully, he said in a low voice: "Okay, I haven't woken up yet. Let's wait until we wake up to talk about anything."

Mrs. Zhou Xu at least gave her son some face. She didn't say anything more, she just mumbled a few words of disgust before going to her own bed and lying down.

People in the other rooms also lay down on their own.

The Zhou family finally became quiet.

Sister Du looked at the mess in the Zhou family and muttered to Qiao Huaping with some unhappiness: "Sister, I'm not provoking trouble. It's so late at night, you're just a woman." They took such a big risk to go into the forest to find someone, but they didn't say anything at all... If you hadn't gone down to the slope and found someone, I guess Sister Song would have passed away at the bottom of the slope tonight. Even if he didn't fall out, he might still be in danger - I'm not cursing Sister Song, let's just be honest, right... There are so many people in the Zhou family, they are stunned. No one thought of saying thank you."

Qiao Huaping thought about the clusters of Ganoderma lucidum growing in the space, and she smiled sincerely: "It's okay, I don't want them to remember me well before I was there. , Sister-in-law Song helped take care of a few of my cubs. I just helped as much as I could."

Sister Du became more and more fond of Qiao Huaping: "Hey, our Xiao Qiao is kind-hearted!"

None of the Mei children were asleep, so they were lying on the linoleum nearby.

There was no need for Qiao Huaping to say anything this time. Mei Qingyao took the initiative to cut some grass and spread it under the linoleum cloth. Then he spread the bedding. Even in the open air, the four children could lie down very comfortably.

They all looked a little complicated when they heard Aunt Du praising Qiao Hua Ping.

These days, this little stepmother seems to have changed.

In the past, they would beat them, but recently, the little stepmother either patted their heads or hugged them.

Today, he has become even more kind-hearted and even took the initiative to go to the woods to help find people.

Thinking about it, they had eaten well every day and slept well in the past few days. They were obviously escaping from famine, but they were more comfortable than before in the village.

In fact, probably because of eating well and resting every day, their strength has increased, and today they feel that they have endless energy all over their bodies.

Or...is this vicious little stepmother really getting better?

The children each had their own thoughts and fell asleep.

Qiao Huaping sat aside, chatting quietly with Sister Du, while rubbing a withered vine. A lot of powder fell from the withered vine and fell on a large leaf placed by Qiao Huaping.

Sister Du didn't chat with Qiao Huaping for too long. After all, she had traveled all day and was very tired. When she was going back to her home to make bed, Qiao Huaping stopped her, took another leaf, and gave some to her. Wrap up the powder and give it to her.

"This is powder made from dried insect-avoiding vines. It's a good thing." Qiao Huaping lowered her voice for fear of disturbing the sleeping children. "Sister, please spread this near your bedding and make a circle around it. It can prevent insects and ants."

Sister Du did not have any doubts, thanked Qiao Huaping, and happily took the leaf bag away.

Not long after, Sister Du brought back a cattail leaf fan in the dark and secretly gave it to Qiao Huaping: "Here is this for you. You can also fan yourself when it's hot."

Qiao Huaping said "Ouch" and happily thanked Sister Du. . When Sister Du saw that the thing she gave made Xiao Qiao so happy, she went back happily.

Qiao Huaping shook the cattail leaf fan gently, and the refreshing wind slowly blew from the swing of the cattail leaf fan.

What a good thing.

Qiao Huaping smiled and rolled his eyes.

She put away the cattail leaf fan, spread the powder she had kneaded before evenly along their linoleum cloth, then lay down, covered herself with a quilt, and fell asleep.

It was still dark the next day. When many people woke up, they found that they had red bumps on their bodies that were bitten by insects and ants.

Of course, the villagers usually dig in the loess for food, so being bitten by an insect or ant is not a big problem. It is just an itchiness and scratching. However, there are also some serious cases, such as allergies and redness and swelling all over the body, and they have no choice but to I took some medicine from Dr. Zhu Xiangyi and applied it on.

After Sister Du woke up, she was surprised to find that none of her family had any traces of insect or ant bites on their bodies!

The medicinal powder Xiao Qiao gave me is really useful!

She ran to Qiao Huaping with some excitement.

Qiao Huaping also woke up and was lighting the fire to cook porridge when she saw Sister Du running over excitedly and said to her: "Xiao Qiao, do you still have the pink powder you gave me yesterday? At my sister-in-lawâs house, the two-year-old baby was bitten badly by bugs. We adults didnât care. The child was so itchy that his skin was scratched, and he was crying so hard that he looked uncomfortable.â

Qiao Huaping thought for a while and took out a piece from the bag: "I happened to come across it in the woods yesterday and took some. There are not many of them. I don't know when I will encounter it again. I will take this piece first. Go and use it."

Sister Du thanked her again.

Not long after, she came back with a sullen face. She took a handful of red dates and stuffed them into Qiao Huaping's hand: "I've washed these dates. You put them in the porridge. It will taste delicious after boiling... My sister-in-law is ignorant and doesnât believe in the efficacy of the insect-avoiding vine. I told her that our family was not bitten by insects at all last night. She still didnât believe it, saying that there were so many people in the village who were not bitten by insects. "Our family is just lucky." Sister Du became more and more

angry , "...forget it! Anyway, I gave her the things, and I have done my best, so there is no need to let her do it!" Gone.

Qiao Huaping put the handful of dried red dates given by Sister Du into the pot.

Taking advantage of the situation, she added the drop of spiritual water dripping from the space yesterday due to the Ganoderma lucidum into the porridge.

The sweet and fragrant red dates quickly floated out of the pot.

Probably because of the addition of spiritual water, Qiao Huaping always felt that the red dates were extremely sweet.

Qiao Huaping was in a good mood, so she cut the pickles into shreds and placed them on a small plate made of leaves.

After doing this, the children almost woke up.

Mei Qingyao looked a little awkward when she saw that Qiao Huaping had already cooked the meal again: "...I can chop wood, make a fire, and boil water. Just call me when you get up from now on."

Qiao Huaping couldn't help laughing: "Don't worry, I will definitely not do the work that you can do. This is not the time when you children are growing up. It would be nice to sleep a little longer...so that we don't end up like this in the future, a bunch of little ones. Shorty."

When he said "little shorty", Mei Qingyao almost jumped up: "I'm only eight years old, I'm not short!"

Qiao Huaping nodded obediently: "Yes, not short, that is, he can hit my knees when he jumps. ."

Mei Qingyao's face turned red with anger and she even ate an extra bowl for breakfast!

Qiao Huaping smiled secretly.

This child, probably because he was scared of hunger in the past, was always worried that his younger brothers and sisters would not have enough to eat, so he held back his appetite every time he ate.

If this didn't excite him, Qiao Huaping was really afraid that the child would be malnourished.
