Since Yang Dachun said he wanted to sit on the shaft, Su Qiuyi also got on the carriage. The carriage was already a bit crowded with six people plus their luggage.

Sisters Su Qiuyi and Su Mingyue carefully supported Yang Ruchuan.

Yang Ruchuan was already an eighteen-year-old young man. He was awake at this moment and was supported by his two cousins. His handsome face was flushed red.

But there was no other way. The carriage was bumpy and the mountain road was difficult to navigate, so they had to hold on.

Just after I walked a short distance, the voices of Lao Yang's family were heard from behind.

Yang Dachun looked in the direction of the sound and saw that his parents, brothers and sisters who had left them behind had all returned.

He didn't understand what was going on for a moment and thought they were worried about them coming back again.

Su Xiaofang spoke quietly at the side, "When I met them on the road, they were being chased by three big men. I beat them away and left them some water and steamed buns. I'm going to catch them now!"

When Yang Dachun heard this, he said nothing and ignored his mother who was shouting heartbreakingly.

The carriage was already full. If we dragged the Yang family members on board in my son's condition, it would not be worth it if it touched his wound.

Since they can go back and forth twice to cover such a long distance, what's the problem with walking up this short distance?

Thinking about this, he rode his horse forward and met the Su family on the road. Su Dazhuang asked them to take the old couple and his injured daughter away, but Su Xiaofang didn't even look at them.

Su Laosan in the carriage wanted to say something, but when he saw that his three daughters all looked unhappy, he shut up.

As expected, the group was the first to arrive near the cave, and the carriage stopped at the entrance of the cave. Since there was a large open space at the entrance of the cave, stopping the carriage here did not affect them at all.

Yang Ruchuan was carefully carried off the carriage, and Su Qiuyi hurriedly took his second sister Su Mingyue to move the bedding down.

"Yiyi, let's live in the cave in the east. That cave is bigger and just right for us to live with our uncle and his family of three!"

Su Xiaofang pointed to the cave at the easternmost end and asked the two sisters to quickly spread their son's bedding there.

Su Qiuyi had no objection. She had just that idea. The smaller cave next to the spring was for her and her daughter to live in.

The group was busy packing for a while, moving all the bedding, luggage, pots and pans out of the carriage. There were no beds or anything like that in the cave, so they just spread the bedding on the ground and let the injured people lie down to rest before they breathed a sigh of relief.

After they finished all this, the villagers also came one after another. However, there were only a dozen households left in the cave, and there were still not enough caves to go around.

Everyone started arguing and finally came to Xinlizheng Su Laosan.

At this time, Su Laosan was sitting on the mat laid out on the ground, chopping wood with a kitchen knife in his hand.

Although he was a carpenter, he had no tools to make beds. He wanted to make a bed for his daughters, so he could only use the only knife in the house, which was both a weapon and a kitchen utensil, to carve wood.

A large group of people came into the cave entrance noisily. They were those who failed to snatch the cave.

There are also the Yang family and the Su family inside.

The two families who were related to the village head actually failed to snatch the cave. These people were not convinced and were all angry.

"Third brother, you lived in such a nice cave, but you didn't even think of giving us...our parents one. We came late, what should we do now? Where should we live?"

Su Dazhuang no longer had his previous attitude of staying out of the matter, and repeatedly accused Su Laosan of being unfilial and heartless.

"That's right, Third Brother. Our parents have nowhere to stay. Is it appropriate for you to enjoy yourself like this?" Behind him, Su Xiaofei, the old daughter of the Su family, finally couldn't bear it anymore and criticized.

With one charge of unfilial piety after another being thrown down, the villagers who had come over to seek justice were at a loss for words.

Su Qiuyi stood up and pushed the people out with his arms. "Stand outside and don't dirty my mattress! This is one of the few things we got when we separated!"

After saying that, he squatted down with a look of heartache and swept the mattress that had been stepped on with his hands.

The villagers around saw clearly that this was someone telling the Su family that they had separated long ago.

Everyone in the village had heard that before the Su family fled, they separated their lame third son and didn't give him much.

When Su Laosan saw his daughter like this, he realized that there was nothing she didn't understand. She thought she was trying to deceive him.

But he is not a fool. Others can be so decisive to him, why should he care so much?

"Third brother...why don't you let mom and dad and the other kids live here with you? We adults can handle it, but it's very cold outside at night, and I'm afraid mom and dad can't stand it!"

Su Erzhuang saw that it was useless for his elder brother to act tough, so he thought he was smart and started to persuade him.

The two brothers of the Su family came over with their younger sister. They spoke one by one and did not let others speak. Everyone looked at Su Lao San, wanting to see how he would solve the problem.

Under the gazes of the crowd, Su Lao San hesitated for a moment, and did not directly answer the three Su brothers and sisters. Instead, he looked at the crowd and said:

"You didn't get the cave either, right?"

When everyone heard the head of the village ask this question, they all nodded and started to complain.

Some said they came late because of injuries and their legs were inconvenient to walk, while others said there were few people in their family and they could not compete with others. Everyone had their own reasons.

Su Laosan raised his hand to stop everyone, and pointed outside. "Didn't everyone live well before there were caves? Besides, the conditions are here now. You can work harder and cut some trees. It's not a big deal to build a simple shelter from the wind and rain, right?"

When the villagers heard this, they felt that the problem was being thrown to them to solve on their own, and they became a little unhappy.

"But Li Zheng, why do they live in caves while we have to cut down trees and build houses ourselves? This is not fair!"

"That's right. It's so hot outside now. If you cut down trees to build a house, won't people get burned to death?"

"Village head, you have to make the decision for us. We want to live in the cave, too!" The group of people started arguing with each other, and it was even more intense than when they came here just now.

This was the situation when Su Xiaofang and Yang Dachun came over. No one could hear what was happening because of the noise coming from the people here.

"Shut up! What are you arguing about?" Su Xiaofang yelled at the top of her voice, shocking the few people who were shouting so much that they subconsciously shut up.

Especially Su Dazhuang, he really closed his mouth subconsciously.

He would never forget how his eldest sister chased him for ten miles with a dead snake and wrapped it around his neck because he stole the wild fruits from his third brother.

Although many years have passed, he still has psychological trauma. Whenever he hears his eldest sister's angry voice, he becomes subconsciously afraid.

Su Xiaofang walked in supporting her husband. Although Yang Dachun was fine now without her support and his wounds had scabbed over, she still pretended to be careful.

"What? Do you want to push all the eating, drinking, defecating, urinating and sleeping of your family to the third brother? Just let him serve you? What do you have to complain about building the house by yourself? Do you want us to build it for you?"
