"Mom, look!" Su Da opened a corner of the bag. There were six or seven frozen large grass carps lying inside.
Each one is half an arm long and a palm wide.
The man who had not seen meat and fish for two months couldn't help but his eyes lit up at this time.
Old woman Su tightened her arms around the baby and pursed her lips, "Let's make some food."
"Okay!" Su Da responded crisply, and before leaving with the bag in his arms, he tilted his head and gave his daughter a small kiss on her little face, and whispered, "Daughter, I'm relying on you during this time. When we get to the place, daddy will be a cow for you. horse!"
"Go and do your work! I'm looking for a cigarette!" Old woman Su shouted and drove people away.
When I got to the stove, I took out the fish. When the women and children saw the meat, they screamed in surprise one after another, and their excitement and joy were beyond words.
When Mrs. Su saw this situation, she sighed quietly. She looked down at her little granddaughter and asked quietly, "Bao, tell me honestly, will it do any harm to you if I take these out? Why is grandma always feeling uneasy?" .”
Tian Bao blinked his eyes and shook his little head.
"Really? Don't coax Grandma. Grandma knows that you can understand and know that you are good. If it's harmful, don't hold on. We can reach Yongzhou in more than ten days. Grandma will come up with a solution. Push through.”
This question is a bit difficult to answer without saying it.
Tianbao remembered that he had seen his three brothers patting their chests to prove that they were good. He immediately raised his little hand and patted his own chest in the same way, his eyes bright.
Sweet baby trip!
I have some sweet treasures, and I’m happy to give them to you!
Mrs. Su was originally worried, but when she saw the little baby's old-fashioned actions, she was amused.
"Okay, okay, grandma knows." She patted the baby's back, smiling with tears in her eyes, "Thanks to you, baby."
Otherwise, it is really unknown whether the Su family can survive to Yongzhou.
Although she said she would think of a solution just now, in fact, was there anything she could think of?
Ten mouths to eat.
There was no money and no food. In order to reach the place of exile before the deadline, they had to rush on their way.
Without their granddaughter throwing in some stuff to fill in from time to time, they might not even be able to get here in unison.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Su suddenly froze and looked up in the direction of the stove again.
There, the eldest couple, the second eldest couple, the three young grandchildren, the daughter Xiu'er and the old man all gathered together to work.
After traveling long distances for dozens of days in the cold winter, they had long lost their appearance. Their hair was messy, their clothes were sloppy, and the skin on their faces was chapped and red by the cold wind. They looked more like a nest of beggars.
But strangely, no matter how cold it was or how bad the environment was along the way, the family members were always in good spirits and no one got sick.
The four little babies are always healthy and active.
As for herself, except for the blood blisters on her soles from walking for a long time, she never felt depressed.
Old woman Su slowly lowered her head and looked blankly at her little granddaughter who was playing with saliva bubbles in her arms.
"Old lady, why are you still sitting there? Come here quickly? The fire is getting hot. Come over with Sweet Baby and warm yourself by the fire!" Old Man Su turned his head and raised his voice in this direction. He was so angry that he couldn't tell that he was just recovering from a leg injury. An old man in his fifties.
"...Hey! Here we come!" Mrs. Su responded, looking at her little granddaughter, her smile slowly bloomed and her eyes were surprisingly bright.
Unable to hold back, she also kissed her granddaughter's rosy little face hard.
Hey, hey!
Their sweet baby is really a treasure!
Tianbao wiped her face with her little hands and sighed. It's not good to be young. She is kissed all the time and can't resist.
Her eyes swayed in a certain direction. How long would that strange person be hiding behind the big tree? I have been following them for many days.
Ziyi hid behind a dead tree trunk thirty meters away, his eyes dim.
He was a secret guard and ranked among the top ten in martial arts in the secret guard camp. At first, he was not very happy when his master sent him to escort these ordinary people, and he did not take these people seriously at all.
Will come, just to complete the task.
but……
Like an eagle, his gaze penetrated the darkness of the night and landed on the swaddled child next to the open fire.
It wasn't an illusion, the little kid saw him.
But how is this possible?
While hesitating, the sound of horse hooves approached.
Ziyi quickly hid his figure.
The Su family knew nothing about this.
The fish on the fire was almost cooked, and bursts of burnt aroma overflowed, making the mouth water.
As Old Man Su started eating, everyone immediately tore the fish into pieces and stuffed it into their mouths, too greedy to even bother with boiling it.
There was a pot of fish soup stewed on the stove next to it, which was specially given to Liu Yuelan. She can only eat well if she eats sweet treasures. The Su family always keeps this in mind. As long as there are conditions, they will definitely have enough to eat.
"Grandpa, Grandma, Dad, Mom, this fish is so delicious!" Su An, Su Wen, Su Wu and the three cubs first filled their bellies to half full, and then they were free to speak, full of praise.
The hot fish meat entered his stomach, and his whole body warmed up. Su Er also felt that the fish was delicious when grilled, "It's really delicious. If you apply some oil and sprinkle some salt, it will taste even better."
"I can't even stop your mouth!" Old Mrs. Su scolded, "Go to ordinary people's homes and see how many of them still eat bran-fed vegetables. We can still eat meat in this situation, which is already the best. Very lucky."
"Why bother looking at other people's homes? At this time in previous years, our family would be eating bran vegetables around the brazier."
Everyone recalled the past, feeling sad but also a little happy.
Thinking about it more relaxedly, it seems that they are not in the worst situation now.
"Wait, did you hear the sound?" Su Da suddenly spoke, his expression wary.
"What's the sound? I didn't hear it. There is no one else at the foot of the mountain except us -" Su Er said carelessly. Before he finished speaking, the sound of horse hooves came to his ears and approached quickly. At the same time, there were also Ten torches.
Everyone in the Su family looked solemn.
Old woman Su lowered her voice and said quickly, "Hide the food first! Women and children should hide in the piles behind!"
From what they encountered along the way, the Su family had learned to be cautious in everything and immediately split up.
They were at the intersection of a trail at the foot of a mountain, with dry woods on both sides, and the forest was densely covered with large and small piles of soil.
There was a large pile of dirt not far behind them, which was enough for several women to hide with their children under the cover of night.
Old woman Su, old man Su, Su Da and Su Er were still sitting by the earthen stove, not hiding together.
They have a stove burning here, and the open fire burning in the night might catch someone's eyes early in the morning. If the whole family hides, everything will happen and everyone will suffer.
It would be better if the four of them were exposed and attracted attention.
The four of them were frozen at the moment, waiting for the horses to approach. They could only secretly pray in their hearts that these people were just ordinary passers-by.
Unfortunately, the opposite happened.
The leading horse came up and stopped in front of Mrs. Su and the other four. Before they could see their faces clearly, they smelled the strong smell of blood in the air.
The big man sitting on the horse looked gangster, and the sword hanging on his waist reflected the cold light in the firelight.
The tip of the knife drips blood.
