Ye Xiao and his whole family just walked out of the village when they saw a lonely figure. Ye Xiao walked over and said,
"Do you really want to escape with us?" "Well, I have nowhere to go, and I still have a chance to survive with you." The little girl looked at Ye Xiao. "Let's go." Ye Xiao couldn't change what she had promised, and she was not alone.
A group of people went into the mountain while no one noticed that the Wang family was dead. They arrived at the cave in two hours. There was really no sound. Ye Xiao turned on the strong flashlight. The eldest uncle and the second uncle were in the front, middle and back of the crowd. Holding a lantern in his hand.
It's not that far away, just a few hundred meters. It came to an end very quickly. By the moonlight and Ye Xiao's flashlight, I could roughly get a good idea of this place. A group of people returned to the widest part of the cave. They cleaned, found some hay to spread on the floor, put their luggage on it, and sat on it to rest.
Ye Xiao stewed the cut pork in his own army pot and his own seasonings. Four large pots, a few tables from the landlord's house, chairs, benches, pots and pans. The eldest brother and the second brother were holding guns and keeping vigil outside.
"Come here and eat," Ye Xiao shouted. Everyone smelled the aroma and gathered around. I'm really hungry. I haven't eaten all day and I've walked so far.
Only a solitary figure remained motionless. "Why don't you eat?" Ye Xiao asked the girl. "I didn't know whether to let him or not, so I didn't move." The girl told the truth.
"Haha, since you came with me, we are a family, so don't worry." Ye Xiao said softly to the girl. Seeing that she didn't have a bowl, he got her one from the space and some chopsticks.
"What's your name?" "My name is Qiao Sitong. My family is not from here." "Then why are you in the Wang family?" "My family is a businessman. I went out to play with my father's caravan. When I encountered bandits, they all died. I My father told me to run away, but later I fainted from exhaustion, and the Wang family passed by and picked it up for me. Old man Wang wanted to wait for me to recover from my illness, and forcefully married me. He heard that your family got a wild boar, so he blackmailed me. They all died later. "
"What's going on? Let's eat first." As he spoke, Ye Xiao got her two large pieces of meat and put them in a bowl. Maybe I'm really hungry. Ye Xiao also got a large piece of meat and ate it, and gave a few pieces to his eldest and second brothers.
The whole family had a wonderful meal, and Ye Xiao got two older brothers back. He went to watch the night, not worried about the two brothers.
All woke up after a night. It's broad daylight too. Only then did they all look at this home carefully. What a beautiful place, with a few big trees in the middle.
Ye Xiao took advantage of last night to put the pigs, sheep and cows in here. I left a few for seed. Keep a pair of cattle and horses, and more chickens, ducks and geese.
Ye Xiao came out of here and went to the end of the cave to find a big stone, which was similar to the entrance of the cave. Put it at the door. The blockage is tight. It's all safe now.
"Lao Wu, what's going on with that girl?" Mother Luo Ying asked Ye Xiao. "That's the girl I picked up from Landlord Wang's family. I killed Landlord Wang's family and rescued her. There was no one at home, so the bandits killed her. So she insisted on following me, so she came here."
"Haha, I'm afraid our family is going to have a happy event again, right?" The second aunt made fun of Ye Xiao.
"Ask the girl. If she agrees, marry her. The fifth child is nineteen anyway," the eldest aunt said, "Then I'll ask." The second aunt said and ran over to Qiao Sitong.
"Daughter, can I talk to you?" Second Aunt asked Qiao Sitong. "Auntie, are you okay?" Qiao Sitong asked her second aunt anxiously,
"Daughter, are you married?" "Ah! No." Qiao Sitong blushed, this was too sudden. "Daughter, what do you think of our fifth child?"
"Who is Lao Wu?" Qiao Sitong was a little confused. "It's Ye Xiao." "He's Lao Wu? That's good. But I'm alone. Brother Ye doesn't know what to think." Qiao Sitong's voice became smaller and smaller.
"Daughter, if you have no problem, I'll ask him," the second aunt said, "Qiao Sitong didn't say anything and nodded.
"Lao Wu." "Second aunt, what's the matter?"
"Lao Wu, what do you think of that girl?" "How about what? She's pretty good." Ye Xiao looked at the second aunt not knowing why. "That's fine." After saying that, the second aunt left.
"What does this mean?" Ye Xiao was still a little confused. I have never experienced anything like this in my entire life.
Ye Xiao walked out of the cave, opened the door, and looked for dry wood in the mountains. There were quite a few. Especially in the valley between two ridges. Use a space chainsaw. Start cutting wood and splitting it into planks. Wood square. There were more and more, and I didn’t go back to eat at noon. They were all finished, and there was a big pile of wooden boards and squares. Take the space and go back.
Take out two sacks of rice from the space. One hand and one bag, my physical strength has increased in the past two days.
Put it in the cave. Block up the cave. Get out some salt and seasonings. Entering the innermost meadow, I looked for a suitable place to build a house, at the lowest point of the creek. The cliff behind me is as smooth as a mirror, with solid stones and no trees.
Release all wooden planks. Wooden cubes of twenty centimeters are used as pillars. The eldest uncle, second uncle, and several brothers came over, uncle, and cousin. There is strength in numbers.
The pillars were buried at a depth of 1.5 meters according to Ye Xiao's requirements. They were all buried before dark. We were all tired, so we went back to the cave to eat. At night, there were beds made of wooden boards, and men and women lived in separate places.
I worked on the house non-stop for three days. Nails looted from the landowner's house solved the big problem. The wooden house was repaired to perfection. Start making adobe bricks. It's just right now, it will be done in four or five days.
There are adobe bricks everywhere. The women began to clear the grass, and half of it was cleared into land and made into ridges. Half of them were untouched, separated by wooden boards, and inside were chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, cattle and sheep.
This half is more than thirty acres, which is enough for this family. For a whole month, adobe bricks were built outside the wooden house, and the roof was covered with thatched roof. It's done neatly and everything is clean inside. The uncle and the old men direct the Kang. Ye Xiao's room has a heated kang in the inner room and a bed in the outer room.
Qiao Sitong lived in his inner room. Every household has a pot and fires it independently. Each family has more than a thousand kilograms of grain distributed by Ye Xiao.
The whole family has never been so wealthy, no one bothers them, and they are happy every day. The ground cannot be planted this year, it is not the right time. There is enough food to eat. The cave is dry and there is a lot of food stored in it, which will be the family's food for the coming year.
Ye Xiao summoned all the men in the family. "Grandpa, uncle, uncle, dad, I want to go out and come back in the spring. There is enough rice, flour, grain and oil here." "Isn't it nice here? Why are you going out? I'll leave after you get married."
"Who are you marrying?" "Girl Qiao, she came with you, and she feels uneasy when you leave. Once you get married, you are a real family." Grandpa said to him.
"You also have to agree. We are not landlords, rich men, strong men and domineering women," Ye Xiao said.
"Girl Qiao, come out. Ye Xiao agreed and we are going to get married today." "Is this too soon?" Ye Xiao was still a little shy and tried to find excuses.
