All the people from Daohua Village gathered in the dilapidated temple. There was not much space, so everyone could only find cracks to rest.

Old Lady Tang cursed, "Lazy woman Sun! She said she was going to town to find embroidery work! It's been so long! Why hasn't she come yet?"

Boss Tang stammered, "Yue Ling is here too. Maybe she got stuck with something."

"You are such a fool! If your wife and daughter run away, you will cry."

They arrived here three days ago. It was raining heavily and hailstorm was happening at that time. No one had money to stay in the town, so they could only find such a shabby and old temple to live in.

The dilapidated temple was full of holes, rain was flowing into it, the cold wind was biting, and it was impossible to sleep at night.

Everyone could only put on all the clothes they brought and burn weeds and wood in the dilapidated temple to keep warm, but even so, many people were still cold.

Today, when the hail was a little smaller, Sun, relying on her embroidery skills, volunteered to go to the town to find work to earn money and store food.

Not only Sun and Tang Yueling went to the town, but other skilled men and women also went to the town to find work, even if it was just washing dishes.

Unfortunately, there isn't that much work to do nowadays.

As Mrs. Tang cursed, Sun and Tang Yueling came back. The old Tang family saw them and hurried over. But when they saw the two empty-handed people, everyone looked disappointed.

Old Lady Tang laughed sarcastically, "Embroidery work? Did you two take the embroidery work?"

"Mom! I haven't received any embroidery work."

Tang Yueling remained silent, her face blushing.

Next, the villagers who had left the dilapidated temple to look for work came back in groups of three or four, dejected.

Village Chief Fang saw this and coughed loudly, "What should I do?"

"How much money do you have left? If you can't find a job, let's pool our money together to buy some food to get through the winter, and some warm clothes. It's okay for us adults to endure it, but the children may not." Village Chief Fang glanced at everyone present, but did not get a response, so he couldn't help but sigh.

"Do you want Guoguo to starve herself to death?" Village Chief Fang was furious, looking puzzled.

Still no one responded. What's worse, some people just closed their eyes and fell asleep, looking like they had given up hope, which made people grit their teeth.

Fang Haoze and Fang Qingqing hurried over to help Village Chief Fang to rest aside. "Grandpa, if they want to starve to death, you can't do anything about it. Don't get angry and hurt yourself."

Village Chief Fang looked very unhappy and patted their hands. "Grandpa knows, good boy."

Here, Old Lady Tang stared at Sun's distraught appearance for a long time, so long that other people in the Tang family noticed something was wrong, but unfortunately Sun still had no reaction.

Old Lady Tang gritted her teeth, walked forward and stretched out her hand to pinch Sun's arm, "Why are you in a daze? Hurry up and collect firewood, do you want to freeze your man and son to death?"

In the past, Old Lady Tang turned a blind eye to Sun's laziness. After all, Lin, whom she disliked the most, was in front of her, and everyone else had to stand aside. But since she drove away the people from the third house, Old Lady Tang disliked everyone, and only Tang Yaozu, the eldest grandson from the first house, was the one she liked the most.

Old Mrs. Tang would not allow anyone to say anything bad about Yaozu, because her precious grandson was going to be a high-ranking official!

"Mother!" Sun was pinched so hard that her teeth clenched and she looked at Old Lady Tang pitifully, "Why are you pinching me?"

Old Lady Tang's eyes widened, and she was furious. "You were in a daze as soon as you came back. What else can you do besides being in a daze? Don't you know to take the clay pot to the door to get water? Boil it for your man? Don't you see how dry Yaozu's mouth is?"

Tang Yaozu neither stopped nor cared about it. In his mind, he was the eldest grandson of the Tang family and should enjoy the admiration and service of everyone, including his father and mother.

"Mom! I came back from the rain all the way here! Please let me rest for a while." Sun smiled awkwardly and discussed with Old Lady Tang.

Without saying anything, Mrs. Tang pinched her arm again, "Can I wait for you, can Yaozu wait for you! Hurry up!"

Sun pouted in dissatisfaction, "Second brother's wife didn't do anything, why didn't you ask her to do it!"

When Wu saw that the fire was about to burn her, she quickly gathered some firewood and ran to the fire to work on it. Sun was so angry when she saw this that she just kept pretending all day long!

"Hurry up!" Mrs. Tang roared.

The other villagers were not surprised by this. They had seen so many interesting things happen in the Tang family during their escape that they were used to it.

Sun could only carry the clay pot to the door to fetch water. The more she thought about it, the more upset she felt. Thinking of the familiar face she saw in the town, she simply threw down the clay pot and went into the dilapidated temple. She rubbed her hands and approached Old Lady Tang. Before she was about to attack again, she muttered twice in a low voice.

"Are you serious? You really didn't see it wrong?" Old Mrs. Tang paused with her hand that was holding the stick because of what Sun said, and it fell to the ground again.

Old Mrs. Tang’s exclamation attracted everyone’s attention.

"It's true! It couldn't be more true! Mother, when have I ever lied? I've been watching that silly girl for more than ten years, how could I have been wrong?" Sun looked so arrogant as if she had a good memory, which made Old Mrs. Tang roll her eyes.

Old Lady Tang asked, "Did you see clearly where she went?"

Sun scratched her head and said, "I can see it clearly, but you know I can't tell the directions. Besides, it's raining so hard that my eyes hurt." She still has a large wet area on her body!

Mrs. Tang couldn't stand it anymore and pinched her, "Useless thing!"

Tang Laoda came over and said, "Mom, what did you two whisper about? Let me hear it too."

After getting a nod from Old Lady Tang, Sun told the story of Tang Qiyue that she had seen in the town without hiding anything. Her voice was so loud that Village Chief Fang and the others also heard it.

What? The stupid girl from Tang San's family? She's not dead?

At the same time, everyone had this idea in mind.

That fool is so lucky!

Don was incredulous. "That's impossible! You must have seen it wrong. How could the Third Brother and his gang get here? You must be kidding me."

Sun squinted at her man and said, "I lied to you that I am a dog."

Tang Yueling's eyes flickered at the side. It turned out that the reason why her mother was in a trance in the town just now was because she saw that fool Tang Qiyue!

What a pity! If she had seen it, she would definitely be able to find out where that idiot is now!

Wu suddenly said, "From what my sister-in-law said, I felt like July girl was no longer stupid. Could it be that escaping can cure her brain?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the dilapidated temple suddenly fell silent.

Everyone looked at Wu with bated breath. Wu shrank her shoulders and hid behind Tang Lao Er, looking very scared.

Tang Lao Er stood up and smiled, "That's right! I also think that Qiyue is a smart girl. Didn't my sister-in-law just say that she was carrying a backpack and walking with two tall men? If she was a fool, no one would care about her."

These words immediately made everyone think in the wrong way.
