Chapter 570: Being a Naughty Child in Troubled Times 33
What happened next was what Xiao Yun and his friends encountered. It can be said that they were lucky, otherwise they would have died here.
As for why Xiao Yun and the others didn't go to the bandits' lair? Because Xiao Yun's soul search revealed that there was nothing interesting in their lair.
Don't forget who they work for. The bulk of the benefits are taken away by others, so they just follow suit and spend the money on food and drink or take it home.
Forget about asking Xiao Yun to go door to door looking for the families of those bandits, as they have no grudge against her.
As for the official Xiao Yun who colluded with this man, she had no interest in him at all. She would help him if she met him, but she would not take the initiative to cause trouble for others unless they provoked her.
Moreover, this place belongs to three provinces, none of which are under the jurisdiction of Lao Hei. If it were in the northern province, she might have told Lao Hei and gotten rid of the harm at the same time.
When the two of them were walking back, they actually met those people. They were also going in the same direction. I don’t know if they were going to the Northern Province. However, they did not stop and directly passed those people.
Because they were moving so fast, those people didn't notice them at all.
When they got home, it was just dawn. Bai Qiu and Gun Gun were still sleeping. They looked at their watches and realized it was only 4:30. It was still a bit early, so they simply went back to the room and took a nap.
It was not until seven o'clock that Bai Qiu woke them up. After having breakfast, he carried his things to the drying yard.
On the way, the four of them communicated with each other about what happened yesterday. Xiao Yun and Xiao Erhei were still a little surprised that Xiao Bao went to the county.
They said they were going to buy medicine, but in fact the medicine they used was all picked from the mountains. If they couldn't find it, they would use the medicine in the space. There was quite a lot in stock, so there was no need to buy it at all.
Xiao Yun first thought that Xiao Bao was helping Xiaowang Village. He saw that there were not many people left in the two villages, especially Xiaowang Village, and it was indeed inappropriate to send some more people to escort those squashes, so he volunteered.
After staying here for a few years, the little leopard has learned a lot about the ways of the world and has become very humane.
Bai Qiu and the others were more interested in what happened to Xiao Yun and the other two, and asked a lot about the situation in the three provinces.
Xiao Yun told Wan Hu and the big boss everything he remembered. In fact, the two knew very little. They were just following orders and basically didn't know any secrets.
There is a small part about the Xiao family. It is said that Xiao Zhenyu has been seriously injured and in a coma, and everyone under him is ready to make trouble, especially his uncles and brothers. Not only do they not help, but they also make trouble, so that his eldest son can only barely hold on.
If this continues, the Xiao family's military power may change hands.
As for Xiao Xinyue, there is none. Maybe her privacy is well protected, or it has not been passed here yet.
……
When they went over, they found that the village head's wife, Old Lady Yang, and her two daughters-in-law were already there.
Looking at the porridge and pickles on the table, he actually came over to deliver food.
Yes, Xiao Yun and the others also brought food with them. In the morning, they asked Uncle Liu to make some extra food. It was also porridge and side dishes, but it was porridge made with millet and some red dates, which was just right for replenishing blood.
Old Lady Yang and the others had just arrived. Seeing the jars in Wang Ma and La Mei's hands, Old Lady Yang smiled and said, "I didn't expect that we had the same idea. I was just about to say that we didn't bring much and had to feed the wounded first, but now you're here. They'll have enough to eat now."
Gungun asked Aunt Wang to put the pots and dishes on the table, and replied with a smile, "When I came back yesterday, their family asked me to take care of them. The village chief also told me to do that. But I got back late at night, and I slept so hard that I almost didn't get up this morning. I hurriedly made some millet porridge, but I didn't expect you, Auntie, to be here already."
The four family members hurriedly thanked them. It was already troublesome enough for them to come here to get treatment and occupy someone else's house, but they didn't expect that they would bring them food in the morning. The four of them felt very embarrassed and grateful.
The four seriously injured people had also woken up, but they were still unable to get up, so they raised their pillows and thanked them.
Before Xiao Bao left, he also told her that she could eat liquid food, but she should try not to eat anything too dry or irritating.
Those who were lightly injured went back to their homes to recuperate yesterday, so there were only eight people left here, which means that there is one family member to take care of each injured person.
Old Madam Yang smiled and said, "We all thought the same thing. I was thinking that if they sent the food over, it would be cold by the time it got here, which would be harmful. Eating cold food is never good, so we who are close by can take care of them."
Old Lady Yang and the others also brought millet porridge, but the portion was indeed not much, and it was definitely not enough for eight people to eat. I had originally thought that the wounded would eat it first, and the remaining four people would have it as a filling. When someone came to replace them, they could go home and eat. Now, with what Gungun and the others brought, it was just right.
It’s not that Old Lady Yang is stingy, it’s mainly because there isn’t much food left at home.
Although there have been no disasters in the past two years, the grain production is still there. There are so many mouths to feed at home, and now it is spring, which is the time of the year when there is a shortage of food. We have to save food every day, so there is really not much to take out.
When the porridge was served, they saw red dates in it and thanked him again, saying that this was just right for feeding the wounded.
While they were eating, Bai Qiu and Gun Gun chatted with Old Lady Yang and her daughter-in-law, and also told the eight people about what happened in Xiaowangzhuang yesterday.
I came back too late yesterday and no one came over, so I don’t know what happened afterwards.
Old Mrs. Yang didn't know either. The village chief didn't come back yesterday. He just sent someone to tell him to stay there and didn't say anything else, so she listened carefully.
As they were talking, there was a noise outside. It sounded like two children from the village, probably coming to practice martial arts.
They usually come here at five or six o'clock, and should have finished practicing by now. But these people got up late last night, so they didn't get up this morning.
Dunzi came in and took a look. After all, his grandfather was inside. He greeted everyone and looked at the wounds of his grandfather and the other three people. Seeing that there was no need to change the bandages, he went to the drying yard outside to practice.
After a while, a uniform "He! Ha!" sound came from outside.
After a while, a few more people came in. They were also the families of the four injured people. They came with Dunzi and the others. They were just moving things, so they were a step slow.
They came to replace the other four and brought with them bedding and other supplies, even a bedpan. It was not known how many days it would take for them to go back, so it would not be convenient to use other people's things.
