Zhou Qingyun also understood that he had no way to take the main road in his current situation, otherwise his second uncle would not have taken him all the way through the mountains. When the earthquake came, he was almost crushed under the mountain by the earthquake, but his second uncle directly protected him and rolled him under a big tree, and he escaped with the help of the tree.

"Okay, I'll listen to my grandpa."

The old man smiled at the child. Although he was young, he had a unique demeanor that made people want to get close to him. This should be due to the good teaching of the child's biological mother.

"These two are your eldest uncle and second uncle, this is your aunt and second aunt, this girl is your sister, her name is Wang Shiyu, this is your brother, his name is Wang Shiyi, you can just call him Xiaoyi."

The old man introduced everyone to Zhou Qingyun one by one, and Zhou Qingyun was well-behaved. Following the old man's introductions, he began to call Wang Yizhuo and Wang Yixin, who all nodded and responded with a smile. When he called Wang Shiyu, Wang Shiyu just smiled and called him "brother", and Wang Shiyi followed suit and called him "brother".

Wang Shiyu could see that the child had not let down his guard and had no sincerity towards their family, so Wang Shiyu did not rush to talk to him, but stayed quietly aside with her brother.

Now that they have this child, there are many things they can no longer eat. Even if Wang Shiyu wants to improve the food for everyone, she can't take it out in front of this person. You know, the children of the royal family have countless minds since they were young, just like lotus roots, nothing but minds.

Even though Zhou Qingyun didn't believe these people in his heart, he didn't show it on his face. This period of escape had changed some things in his heart. It seemed that the kindness his mother taught him was not enough to survive in this world.

The old man forgot that he had picked up such a thing, so he gave up the idea of ​​eating delicious food. While walking on the road, they were thinking, what is the possibility of leaving the child to the Zhang family when they reach Jianmen Pass?

They could take the child with them, but they couldn't stop them from eating delicious food. In just one day, the Wang family's food standard dropped significantly, from two dishes and one soup a day to steamed buns with pickles. Even so, the family ate with relish, but some people didn't think so.

While Zhou Qingyun was holding the steamed bun in his hand, he was still thinking in his heart how could such good things come from his great-grandfather's house. Along the way, his second uncle had tried his best, but he only got him a few steamed buns without bran, which was already considered good. Now, his great-grandfather's family could actually eat steamed buns.

So he began to observe the actions of the Wang family carefully, as if he wanted to find out where these people got the food from and why they were so soft.

Sometimes I would ask my cousin about the situation openly or secretly.

"Grandpa, can we still buy food in the villages and towns down there?"

The old man turned around and glanced at Zhou Qingyun who was eating a steamed bun.

"Yes, the water here is more abundant than in Jinling. There is still some water down there, but not much, so we still have to save it."

Looking at the child's suspicious eyes, Wang Shiyu knew that he had begun to doubt how their family could eat such delicious food, but Wang Shiyu did not pay attention to him or explain to him. Instead, she started eating and drinking normally.

I don't want to treat my mouth badly at all. If the child talks too much, I will just leave him at Jianmen Pass. Anyway, it is not necessary to take the child with me.

Every time the old man went out, he would bring back a lot of food when he came back. As for where all the food came from, Zhou Qingyun never asked. It was good enough for him to eat with him. How could he possibly tell him where the food came from?

The young boy began to observe the actions of the Wang family every day, and even wanted to follow the old man down the mountain to see what was going on below. Why could his great-grandfather even get braised meat, roast chicken, and pastries?

Suddenly, he no longer believed that his second uncle did not have this ability. There must be other secrets. It would be great if he could find them. This way, he would not starve and he could also take his mother out to live a good life.

Wang Shiyu stood next to him, looking at the wariness and strong interest in Zhou Qingyun's eyes, which was really annoying, and she couldn't help but scold him coldly.

"If you think our Wang family is meddling in other people's affairs, wait until the next city and you meet your great-grandfather, then you can leave with him. You don't want to live a good life, but you want to live a hard life. Is this how your mother taught you to explore other people's secrets?"

Hearing Wang Shiyu's cold voice, Zhou Qingyun's original bad thoughts were immediately retracted. He had no worries about food and drink when he lived with the Wang family, and when he was tired, there would be adults to carry him for a while. Why would he choose to leave?

He concealed the inquiry in his heart and eyes, and looked at Wang Shiyu's cold little face with a smile. Although Wang Shiyu was a little dark due to the sun exposure, at this moment he was a little afraid to face the coldness in her eyes, as if she wanted to kill him directly.

"Sister, you think too much. How could I explore your secrets? You saved me, and I am very grateful. I have never seen anyone else along the way. That's why I am more curious about the situation down the mountain."

Even if he wanted to explore the secrets of his maternal grandfather's family, he didn't dare to move now. After all, he was young and still living under someone else's roof. If his great-grandfather really threw him on the road, he would not be able to survive and see his great-grandfather and others.

"Then just close your eyes, don't look around, and don't ask about useless things. Eat what you can eat and drink what you can drink."

"You need to understand your identity. It's because of you that we took this difficult mountain road and gave up the flat official road. Please don't cause me trouble. If the people chasing you find you because of your curiosity, don't blame us for abandoning you. After all, it's hard to persuade a damned ghost with kind words."

After saying that, Wang Shiyu left his side and sat down in front of Mo Ruru. At this moment, Mo Ruru was busy cutting meat to make roujiamo, and pretended not to hear what her daughter and the child of a somewhat noble status said.

They had all seen the child's behavior over the past two days. They could understand that he came from a royal family and was cautious in his heart, but they could not accept that this child would doubt his own relatives in this way.
