Xie Songlin and his men had a horse-drawn carriage and were traveling fast. When they had finished their soup and dinner and were preparing to set up their tents, the large group from Xiejia Village had just arrived in a hurry.
A large group of people also began to set up tents to rest. Some people, like Xie Songlin and his friends, would cook some soup or porridge to eat with steamed buns, but most people did not have the conditions or energy to make a fire and cook. They just took out the dry food they had prepared long ago from their bags, sat on the ground in the night, and silently ate the dry food.
Xie Dazhong helped Xie Songlin set up the tents. It took a lot of effort and it took him a long time to set up two tents.
Xie Songlin was exhausted. Actually, it was called a tent, but it was just some small branches bent into an arch and tied with oilcloth. It was actually quite simple. However, fortunately, as long as the oilcloth was tied tightly without any gaps, it could at least serve as a windbreak when sleeping at night.
He found these oilcloths from the space. Fortunately, these oilcloths did not look particularly conspicuous, and it was not easy for people to tell that they were modern items, so Xie Songlin dared to take them out and use them.
But he really couldn't remember why there was such a thing at home?
He really wanted to take out the camping tools his daughter bought from the space. The tent would automatically set up once inflated, and the space inside was large and comfortable, with folding tables and chairs, a grill, and so on.
But he didn't dare, he couldn't explain these things.
He could only continue to silently set up tents with Xie Dazhong. Fortunately, they could sleep in the carriage, so they didn't need to set up too many tents.
It is already dark now, and the coldness around seems to be getting stronger. The current weather is still a bit chilly, so it is best not to sleep outdoors.
On Xie Songlin's side, the tents were almost set up. He gave one of his tents to a few of the boys. After all, it was okay to sit in the carriage, but when they really wanted to sleep, the boys couldn't stretch their legs. They could only have a few of them lie down in the tent, and the rest would have more space in the carriage.
Old Mrs. Shen was old and could not stand the cold night and the cramped carriage. Xie Songlin also thoughtfully prepared a tent for Old Mrs. Shen. After all, he couldn't let the old lady sit stiffly in the carriage all night. So Old Mrs. Shen took Xie Shu and Xie An into the tent, while Qian, Zhou and Qiuyue stayed in the carriage.
Xie Dazhong, Xie Songbai and others squeezed into another big tent together. They also had to take turns to keep watch at night. They couldn't all fall asleep.
In the end, only Xie Songlin, Cheng Hui, Xie Wanxing and Xie Yao were left. The whole family moved into a relatively small tent.
Xie Dazhong looked at the small tent and couldn't bear to look at it. He couldn't help but ask: "Songlin, can you really sleep here? You can't even turn over when you go in." The small tent looked a bit cramped, and the space inside felt tight. It seemed a bit difficult to fit so many people in it.
Xie Songlin quickly responded, "I can sleep, I can sleep, it's okay, go and rest quickly."
He crawled into the tent. Xie Yao was already fast asleep, snuggling up to Cheng Hui. Xie Wanxing waved to Xie Songlin, who was sitting in the corner, then turned around and entered the space.
The reason why their family had to squeeze into this slightly cramped little tent was naturally to hide from others. They were all family members, and Xie Yao was sleeping so soundly that no one could notice that they had returned to the space to sleep.
Cheng Hui looked at Xie Yao in her arms, lowered her voice and said to Xie Songlin, "If you can't bring Yao in, I'll be outside. You can go into the space and sleep."
"Okay, cover yourself more." Xie Songlin flipped his hand and took out a thick blanket from the space and covered Cheng Hui and Xie Yao with it. Although this small tent was smaller than other tents, it was still spacious enough for an adult like Cheng Hui and a baby like Xie Yao. Cheng Hui could lie comfortably, and Xie Yao had enough space in her arms to move around freely without feeling too cramped.
After doing all this, Xie Songlin returned to the space, entered the master bedroom of the space villa, and lay down comfortably to rest. The space still ejected them every once in a while. Although they could not sleep well, the environment was much better than outside.
The next day, as the sky was just beginning to turn pale, everyone woke up from their sleep and began to prepare for a new day of travel.
Li got up early and had already cooked a pot of porridge. She didn't dare to make it too thick. After all, there were many people now. Although they had a lot of food, it couldn't feed so many mouths every day. They still had to plan ahead.
Xie Wanxing and Xie Songlin also got up in the space. After washing up, Xie Songlin cooked a pot of tomato and beef noodles in the kitchen. The father and daughter had a full meal. He also came out and quietly took Xie Yao and asked Cheng Hui to go in and eat something as well.
They are full in the space, so they can eat less outside and try to save some food. Although the amount saved each time may not be much, it adds up to a lot. It is good to save more food outside.
After the family of four came out of the space, Xie Yao's big round eyes opened. He probably smelled the aroma of food, and his little mouth opened and closed, humming and expressing his desire to eat.
Cheng Hui carried him over to drink porridge. While feeding him, she felt guilty in her heart: What a sin! It’s not that mother doesn’t want to give you delicious food, it’s just that there are too many outside and she dare not take anything out.
While Xie Songlin was packing up the tent, Xie Wanxing tiptoed to his side. She looked around mysteriously, and after making sure that no one noticed her little action, she quickly took out a large oil-paper bag from her arms.
Xie Songlin: "...What the hell is this?"
Xie Wanxing: "Aren't you familiar with this smell? It's cold medicine."
"What do you want to do?"
"What can I do? I need to make a pot of cold medicine! I'll have everyone in the village scoop a bowl and drink it. The weather is still cold now, and not everyone can wrap themselves up like us. Whether we're traveling during the day or sleeping at night, someone is bound to get caught in the wind. If someone gets a headache or a fever, it will be troublesome. We won't be able to continue on our journey. So should we wait for him or not? If we wait, it's definitely not possible. We can't gamble with so many lives. If we don't wait, will he die of illness on the road or be captured and killed by the Huns?" Xie Wanxing sighed, "I'm taking precautions to avoid any moral dilemmas later."
Xie Songlin was deeply convinced by Xie Wanxing: "Then how big a pot should we make?"
“It’s as big as a casserole.”
