Traveling through ancient times to escape famine, I have a treasure chest so I don't have to wo
Chapter 34 The Lingering Person
The adults in the Xu family had the same idea in their minds. They thought that after staying in the valley for some time, they had been separated from Xujia Village.
Unexpectedly, the people from Xujia Village were right in front of them.
Xu Xiaohu was walking a little slower because he was carrying my mother, and happened to hear Xu Da's voice and came over. So where are the people in Xujia Village?
Even if we don’t find out today, we will know it tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.
"Well, Dayong, I just came to thank you. It was Li the hunter who told everyone the news in time last time, so my mother and I were lucky enough to escape." Xu Xiaohu saw that Xu Ning's family was not welcoming, and was ready to leave after speaking.
His mother wanted to say a few words to Old Lady Xu, but Old Lady Xu turned around and slapped her on the back of her head.
Xu Da looked at his mother, then at Xu Xiaohu who was at a loss, and he could only laugh it off and change the subject.
"It's not a big deal. Well, haha, you know, it's not convenient right now."
Old Mrs. Xu snorted coldly, thinking that since it's a thank you, you don't need to bring anything over, but you can't repay kindness with evil, right?
Anyone with eyes can see that Xu Xiaohu is trying to get close to him. Isn't he staying here just to get some food?
Could she give it to him? If she did, the people from Xujia Village would come to her like blood-sucking leeches the next day.
How could she not give it to him? Look at Xu Xiaohu's mother, she is so thin and light that she looks like she is about to fly away!
"Hey, eat quickly, wipe your mouth and go back. You know what to say and what not to say. Our family is not doing well either, with so many mouths to feed! You can only give us this one bowl, no more!"
The pheasant was not big to begin with, so each member of the Xu family could only get two bites. Now that one bowl was given to Xu Xiaohu and his mother, each member of Xu Ning's family had less food.
When she thought about the injustice done to her family, Old Mrs. Xu's face turned completely dark.
"Aunt Xu, I'm not here to ask for food!" Xu Xiaohu's face turned red, and he didn't dare to glance at the bowl of mushroom chicken soup that was oozing with oil.
"Chunhua, I don't want to drink chicken soup." Xu Xiaohu's mother stretched out her hand to push it back. Old Mrs. Xu couldn't bear it and directly took the bowl and stuffed it into Xu Xiaohu's mother's mouth.
"You'd be better off starving to death if you're in such a bad mood. Do you think I want to feed you? I just see how skinny you are. I'm giving you a bowl of soup out of pity. If you can eat it and survive, just don't forget me when you live a good life. If you can't survive, help me explore the way down and tell me in a dream. That'll be my repayment!"
"Chunhua!" Xu Xiaohu's mother struggled desperately, but the overwhelming strength of her body made it useless even if she stomped her feet. Xu Xiaohu did not expect that Old Lady Xu would do this, and before he could stop her, his mother had already taken a sip.
"Drink yours. If you're full, give it to your son. There's still a long way to go! Why are you being so shy? Anyway, we don't want this bowl anymore. It's stained with your saliva, which is disgusting!" After saying this, Old Mrs. Xu let go of her hand, and Xu Xiaohu and his mother quickly held the bowl.
"Xu Chunhua, from now on my son is your son." Xu Xiaohu's mother's eyes were filled with tears. When Old Lady Xu heard this, she quickly stopped talking and said, "Gu Xiangchun, don't be silly. If you want to never have anything to do with me again, just say it directly. There's no need to beat around the bush. You're getting more and more disgusting as you get older!"
Old Mrs. Xu had a look of disgust on her face and ignored Xu Xiaohu and his mother. She quickly called her family to eat and finished the meal quickly.
Xu Ning was holding the bowl and hadn't reacted yet. She thought there was going to be a fight, but it was easily resolved by her grandmother.
"Grandma, are you familiar with Uncle Xiaohu's mother?" Xu Ning was very curious. Grandma Xu was drinking soup when Father Xu put down his bowl and explained for Grandma Xu: "When your grandma first married into the village, she had the best relationship with Uncle Xiaohu's mother."
So that's how it is. No wonder Old Mrs. Xu gave one bowl each to Xu Xiaohu and his mother.
"Grandma, how about we..." Before Xu Ning could finish his words, he was interrupted impatiently by Old Lady Xu, "Xu Daya, can you please be quiet? Stop meddling in adults' affairs. If you don't shut up, don't drink the bowl of soup in your hand. There won't be enough for everyone."
Xu Ning immediately swallowed the unfinished words and lowered his head to drink the soup in silence.
Xu Xiaohu and his mother finished drinking the soup, ate the wild vegetables and mushrooms in the soup, licked the bowl clean, and finally washed it with clean water several times before returning it to Old Mrs. Xu.
"Take the wild vegetables away, Gu Xiangchun. Our family can't help you." Old Mrs. Xu refused the wild vegetables picked by Xu Xiaohu. Their family had no shortage of them. What Zhang picked every day was enough for the whole family to eat.
Xu Ning watched Xu Xiaohu and his mother walking back and forth with the wild vegetables they had picked in a lost manner. She had just confirmed with the treasure chest that the people from Xujia Village were not far ahead, and she would meet them sooner or later if she continued walking forward.
Sure enough, people from Xujia Village later sent people to look for Xu Xiaohu, and found that Xu Xiaohu and his mother, who had been following them, were missing. Then, after inquiring, they found that Xu Xiaohu and his mother had met Xu Ning's family.
After Xu Xiaohu left, Old Lady Xu quickly pulled Mr. and Mrs. Xu aside to discuss changing the route overnight. When the people in Xujia Village learned that Xu Ning's family was right behind them, they also gathered together and walked towards this side.
When Xu Xiaohu walked back, he realized it was too late and it was too late for him to report to Xu Da.
"Xu Laogen, you look really energetic!" The head of Xujia Village saw from a distance that Old Man Xu was directing Xu Xiaobao to pack things, and he spoke in a sarcastic tone as soon as he opened his mouth.
When Xu Ning's family heard this sound, they knew they couldn't leave for the time being.
"Uncle village chief." Xu Da put down his things and ran to the village chief of Xujia Village, using his body to block other people in Xujia Village from spying on his home.
"I don't deserve to be called uncle, Lao Gen, don't you think so?" The head of Xujia Village calculated that Old Man Xu was soft-hearted and easy to manipulate, so he ignored the sturdy Xu Da and chased after Old Man Xu and shouted.
Old Man Xu pushed his eldest son aside and stood in front of the village chief of Xujia Village.
He glanced at Xu Qianqian, who was looking at her granddaughter proudly behind the village chief of Xujia Village. Old Man Xu's expression became expressionless. His face, which had become timid due to old age, suddenly showed a sense of majesty without even being angry.
For a moment, the chief of Xujia Village was a little scared when looking at this face.
In fact, Old Man Xu is a generation older than the village head of Xujiacun, but they are of similar age and they were used to calling each other by their names in the village and never cared about the issue of seniority.
The same was true for the other people in Xujia Village, but today Old Man Xu changed his temper and said, "Shuanzi, you should call me uncle."
"You..." The village chief of Xujia Village was suddenly choked.
"Shuanzi, since you are here today, I will speak openly. Everyone has seen what happened along the way. Although I, Xu Laogen, am usually easy to talk to, I am not a fool. I also know the purpose of your coming here this time. I also tell you clearly that it is impossible, nothing is possible!"
"Mr. Xu..."
"Hey, don't talk yet. Wait for me to finish. You are all young and strong. I know my family can't beat you, but we are not afraid. It is absolutely impossible for you to take advantage of us. It is good enough to survive in this world. I didn't ask you to thank me last time I told you. This time you came here specially, but you didn't even say thank you at the beginning. We all know what you are planning."
"In a word, it is impossible to wrong my family. Go away. You can't get anything. If you dare to do it, then the Xu family will no longer be the same family. You can decide for yourself."
After saying that, Old Man Xu looked at the head of Xujia Village with a firm gaze. Behind Old Man Xu, Xu Da and Xu Ning had already taken their bows and arrows, Xu Dabao and Xu Xiaobao were holding their daggers, Old Lady Xu was holding a spatula, and Zhang was actually holding a knife. The whole family stared viciously at the other people from Xujia Village who were eyeing them covetously.
