The general's wife took her child on the road to exile

Chapter 4: The hare runs into the basket, and Night 9 turns into a koi

When they passed by the Ten-Li Pavilion, the wet nurse of the old lady of the palace came secretly to deliver a bundle. The old lady's heart was in a knot and tears fell. Aunt Zhao looked at the bundle eagerly, feeling very envious.

No one sent anything on the ninth night, but Zhang's mother sent a bundle with a pair of shoes, some cakes, and some silver coins. Zhang's face turned red and blue. Her family was originally wealthy, but now there was so little. It must be that her father was watching her mother and not allowing her to control her. Soon, everyone in the palace and the other prisoners set out. The whips of the police kept falling, and the people behind screamed and ran forward, fearing that if they were a little slow, their skin would be cut.

The team marched for several hours until it was completely dark. The officers stopped in a forest with a stream nearby. The chief officer Zhang Liu shouted, "Stop!" "Rest here tonight and set off tomorrow morning. If you want to drink water, one person from each family can go in turns. For meals, there are steamed bread. If you want to relieve yourself, one person from each family can go in turns. The whole family is not allowed to go."

Zhang Liu squinted his eyes and said, "His eyes are so small that if you don't look closely you would think he is talking with his eyes closed."

Ye Jiu sent Shuang'er to the old lady, and asked her to stay with her brother and grandmother. She went to the woods and flashed into the space. Tired and thirsty, Ye Jiu directly held the spiritual spring in her hand, drank a few sips, and then took a water bag to fill it with the spiritual spring. The water bag was very big. She took the buns that were put into the space and ate a few of them. Then she breathed a sigh of relief, and took a bag to put some steamed buns, dumplings and stewed meat, wrapped them in oil paper, put them in the bag, and put them in her arms.

Ye Jiu came out of the space and used his wood-related ability to pull the vines to weave a backpack in an instant. He picked the wild fruits and wild strawberries in the grass and filled the bottom of the basket. He also dug a bunch of mushrooms and wild onions and found ginger.

Ye Jiu turned around and saw that he had also picked a handful of wild peppercorns. He put the rest into the space of two pepper trees and some wild onions, so he didn't need to look for more to eat.

Ye Jiu condensed her metal power and cut a two-palm flat stone to make it concave inside, which became a ready-made frying pan. She also used her wood power to pull many dead branches and dead wood, and picked a few large leaves. When she came out, she saw more than a dozen rabbits. In an instant, she used her wood power to wrap the vines and strangled the rabbits directly, and then returned to the team with them. Ye Jiu carried five rabbits and walked to the head of the police, Zhang Liu, and said, "Sir, look at the wild rabbits I shot. I'll give you a snack. Can I make some soup myself?" Zhang Liu's small eyes were so happy that they couldn't be seen. He said, "Okay, do you have a fire starter? Here it is." After saying that, he took one over. Ye Jiu thanked him and returned to the old lady. She put down the vine basket. She called the second room's concubine Liu to come and help cook and light the fire, and asked her to take the rabbits to the river by herself. Before leaving, she stuffed the buns in her hand into the old lady's hand and asked them to sit with their backs to the police and secretly eat something to fill their stomachs. The old lady took the buns and stuffed them into Shuang'er and Zhen'er's hands. The children in this big house were all beautiful and graceful, so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off them. Especially Zhen'er, whose face was exactly the same as Gu Yiheng and whose skin was like his mother's. She was the apple of the old lady's eye.

Ye Jiu walked to the stream, bled and skinned the rabbits quickly, washed his hands, rubbed the seasonings, added the freshly picked wild onions, ginger, peppercorns and salt from the space, wrapped the leaves, covered them with soil, and made six rabbits according to the beggar chicken method. He also used his metal ability to get a stone knife to slice the rabbits for barbecue and stew. After Ye Jiu was done, he went to the nearby area to break off two very thick bamboos, cut a few sections to make cups and bowls. People who came to drink water nearby changed back and forth one after another.

Ye Jiu poured spiritual spring water into a bamboo cup, pretending it was drawn from a stream, and gave it to the old lady to drink. He also sent several sealed spiritual spring water tubes to the second master's family. Everyone was very happy. They were hungry and thirsty. After taking a sip of water, they instantly felt that their fatigue disappeared. Could it be an illusion? How could they not feel tired after taking a sip of water? Gu Yinan thought about it and thought that it was probably because she was too happy. Aunt Liu quickly made a fire. Ye Jiu put a few stones on it and installed the stone pot she had just made. After a while, when the pot became hot, she added rabbit and rabbit fat to stir-fry, turned it over with peeled branches, added wild onions, ginger and peppercorns, and a fragrance wafted far away. Ye Jiu added some water, cut a lid out of wood, and started to stew, so that it would be soft and suitable for the old woman's teeth. Ye Jiu moved the fire away and buried a few beggar rabbits, and then buried the charcoal fire on top. Now that he had some free time, Ye Jiu tore the washed mushrooms in the basket into small pieces and put them on large leaves, and crushed some washed wild fruits and added seasonings to spread on the meat slices, and waited for a while to roast the meat. The police were also roasting rabbits here, and Zhang Liu squinted his eyes and said, "It smells so good over there, why isn't the meat here so good?" Sent the servant Ge Xiao'er to Ye Jiu to ask for some seasoning. Ye Jiu brought him some wild onions, ginger and peppercorns and told him how to make it. Ge Xiao'er happily went back to show his treasure and taught Sun Si how to roast a rabbit. He told Sun Si Ye Jiu's method and Sun Si hurriedly followed it. Behold, the aroma began to become stronger. Zhang Liu was half lying against a big tree, looking lazily at the bird's nest on the tree with his eyes half closed. He thought of the little Honglian in the brothel. Her little waist was as soft as a willow branch when she danced, and she swayed. Zhang Liu felt sleepy.

Ye Jiu has already stewed the broth with wild fruits and mushrooms. The milky white broth is hot and looks very appetizing. Ye Jiu puts a bamboo tube as big as the small pot in front of the old lady and lets the people from the second room serve themselves. Gu Yinan says happily, "Sister-in-law, you are so kind. We are so hungry." This silly boy is now acting cute like a big wolfdog.

Ye Jiu brought the other pot of soup to Gu Yiheng, holding a bamboo spoon, he blew on it while feeding Gu Yiheng. Gu Yiheng had just finished drinking the spiritual spring water given by Ye Jiu. He lay there watching his wife busying around, feeling so distressed. He doted on Wuyang, his Jiu Niang, who was at the top of his heart. "Ah Jiu, you have suffered a lot. It's all because of your useless husband that you have to work so hard..." As he spoke, Gu Yiheng's voice gradually became hoarse, his eyes had become sadly bent into an arch shape, and his eyebrows were furrowed. It's okay, Yiheng, we are better now. There is no war to make you fight for your life. I can see you anytime, I am already very happy. As for your injury, I will heal you, believe me. After saying that, she blinked her sparkling phoenix eyes and said, "Eat quickly. After eating, I have to go to Shuang'er. Zhen'er was also frightened today. I have to comfort him." Ye Jiu fed the soup to General Gu Yiheng of Zhennan mouthful by mouthful. There were also small pieces of softened steamed buns in the soup, each as big as a fingertip. After eating a bowl of delicious She gave him some rabbit meat steamed buns and some spiritual spring water. She told the guard Xiu San to help the general. She wiped the corners of Gu Yiheng's lips with a cloth towel. She smiled slightly, touched Gu Yiheng's pulse, nodded, and the pulse was more stable. Ye Jiu got up and went to the old lady, and asked Aunt Liu to take out the beggar rabbit, peel off the dirt outside, open the leaves, and the tempting aroma of barbecue gushed out. The overbearing aroma once again swept the nearby several meters or even farther away, and the people who smelled it drooled again. Ye Jiu asked Aunt Liu to separate the rabbits, leaving enough to eat here, and take the rest to the second room. At this time, the third room's master Gu Yiwen was chewing on cold pancakes, looking at Ye Jiu hatefully, and the evil thoughts in his heart became stronger. He felt that Ye Jiu's food should be given to him. Why did the cowardly second son have it but I didn't? At this time, he had already forgotten about his own division of the family. He turned around to look at Aunt Lu and asked her to send the youngest Gu Yulan to the big room to ask for food. Gu Yulan didn't dare to go, but she had to go. So, her face wrinkled like a bitter gourd, she walked to the big room. "Grandma," Gu Yulan called quietly, the sound was not much louder than a mosquito. The old lady looked at the thin Gu Yulan, wearing a thin linen dress, tattered The rotten and dirty little hands sighed, waved for Gu Yulan to come over, and said that she must be hungry. Gu Yulan nodded. The old lady broke the steamed bun given by Ye Jiuhou in her arms, asked her to open her mouth, and fed her bite by bite. Gu Yulan didn't dare to chew it, and swallowed hard, choking. The old lady fed her a sip of water from the water bag. It was sweet and delicious. Gu Yulan's big eyes opened with bright stars, and she said, "Grandma, you are so kind! Lan'er is full." Grandmother stroked her yellow and slightly frizzy hair.

"Our Lan'er is a good child. Just eat when you are full. Come back when you are hungry. Go back. Your parents have separated. They can take care of themselves. Go back." But my mother asked me to come here to ask for food. I am afraid I will be beaten if I can't bring it back..." As she spoke, her tears rolled down. The old lady said, "What should we do? The situation is already very difficult. They can take care of themselves. Your father was so angry that he wanted to separate the family."

Ye Jiu brought over the vine mat that he had woven in the woods with his supernatural powers, spread thick soft grass underneath, let the old lady lie on it, and built a tent-like shed on top. The sparse starlight came in through the gaps in the shed, looking a little blurry. The old lady was covered with a quilt woven from soft grass, with a real quilt inside. It was very warm, with just a layer of grass on the surface. Ye Jiu used his wood-based supernatural powers to completely deteriorate the fibers inside, turning them into straw cloth that felt like modern knitted cloth. The old lady felt something unusual when she touched it, so she wisely kept her mouth shut and hugged Shuang'er quietly.

Zhen'er was sitting quietly on the other side of his grandmother, holding the little wooden horse his father had carved for him. He was so quiet that it didn't seem like someone of his age.

He closed his eyes, and scenes before his eyes were all of today. He was very surprised how his mother, who originally could not cook, suddenly became like a different person. The little red mole beside his mother's left ear was still there, and her every word, action and gesture showed that this was the real mother. But why was the weak mother suddenly so strong that she could catch a rolling pin attacking from a distance and dodge various vegetables, just like a guard with martial arts skills?

He had no way of knowing that his mother, whose core had been replaced, was now Ye Jiu, who came from the end of the world.

Ye Jiu knew that Ye Wuyang was a weak beauty, but if she followed her original owner's character along the way, everyone would starve to death and Gu Yiheng would be a disabled person forever, so Ye Jiu did not intend to disguise the original owner's character. She began to be like a lush green bamboo, standing upright and sticking to her original heart despite the withering and raging north wind. She possessed supernatural powers, medical skills, and a miraculous spiritual spring water, but she did not feel proud, let alone think of overthrowing the court and becoming an empress herself.

She just wanted to live quietly. The air in this world was fresh, without the foul and suffocating smell of the apocalypse, where some planets required oxygen masks.

There are birds singing and flowers blooming here, and there are endless herbs to collect. For military doctor Ye Jiu, this is very good and she is very happy. As for walking every day, it is not a big deal for Ye Jiu's original body, but for the delicate general's wife, it is very bad. Her feet hurt every day when she walks. Ye Jiu has secretly changed her feet into thick elastic insoles that she brought with her own, but she still feels pain after walking too much, but it is already bearable pain.

At night, Ye Jiu lay quietly against a tree. The old tree was very thick, probably hundreds of years old. Ye Jiu was almost invisible because of the trunk. She took off her shoes and washed the soles of her feet with the spiritual spring water. Her feet, like white jade, looked small, slender and beautiful, with each toe glowing. Ye Jiu put away the spiritual spring water and applied the ointment of the end of the world. In an instant, a touch of coolness covered the soles of her feet, and her painful and numb feet gradually recovered to this state. She wrapped her shoes and socks and walked to Gu Yiheng.

In the distance, owls were hooting, but the sound was not pleasant.

There were piles of fires burning underground, and the people here didn't dare to put out the fires for fear that wolves or other animals would come over.

Ye Jiu had already scattered some anti-mosquito and anti-snake powder around the first and second rooms. She also kindly gave Zhang Liu a pack, saying that she picked it from the forest. She knew medicine and made some herbal powder to prevent people from being bitten. Zhang Liu was happy, "Madam, with you following us, we don't have to worry about headaches or fevers along the way. It's great." He rubbed his hands with joy.

Ye Jiu accompanied Gu Yiheng, silently holding his hand, she sent in the wood element power to warm the tendons of Gu Yiheng's damaged wrists and ankles, as well as the fragmented meridians invaded by the poison. After a few operations, the broken parts of the tendons and veins recovered a little, and the big ones were still the same. Alas, my power is too low. Desperate to upgrade, Ye Jiu smiled softly and said to Gu Yiheng, "Husband, you should sleep. I will be drowsy for a while." After that, she lay on the mat next to Gu Yiheng, grabbed the straw quilt and quickly closed her eyes. In fact, Ye Jiu wanted to sleep more, but Gu Yiheng was fragile at the moment, and a little accident was enough to take his life. She didn't dare to gamble, so she could only stay quietly beside him.
