Before the house is confiscated, the enemy's warehouse is emptied and exiled

Chapter 16 Good intentions are treated as donkey liver and lungs

At this time, Shen Qingge and her third sister-in-law did not leave immediately. They chose to stay and see how Liu Min, the grandson of the Liu family, was doing!

They ignored the bad words from the other two families. No matter what grudges there were between the adults, the children were innocent, or rather, they could just assume that the children were innocent for the time being.

Even if, after this, the Liu family continued to be full of malice towards the Shen family, they would just treat it as a broken conscience, but they couldn't just stand by and watch them die!

Shen Qingge walked to the side of Mrs. Liu, squatted down, and looked at the little boy of four or five years old in front of her.

After drinking the water, the little boy still did not open his eyes and his face was still pale, but his lips looked less dry with the moisture of the water.

Shen Qingge touched the little boy's forehead, which was still very hot and twitching constantly, without a drop of sweat on his body. He thought that the little bit of water he had just fed him was probably just a drop in the bucket!

Seeing that her grandson did not wake up after drinking the water for a long time, Mrs. Liu became anxious again. She no longer cared about other people in the family, opened the stopper of the water bag in her hand, and prepared to pour it all in.

Shen Qingge grabbed Madam Liu's arm, shook her head and said:

"Madam, your family was so anxious to confiscate our property that they didn't have time to bring any water. Now the whole family depends on this half pot of water. If you give it to this child, what will happen to the others? Even if the adults can endure it, can the children bear it?"

Old Madam Liu turned her head and looked at the other little kids in the house. They were also looking eagerly at the water bag in her hand.

Instantly, Mrs. Liu burst into tears. She said helplessly, "What should I do?"

"Well, I still have some water here. Give some to the children first. Leave your own water for the children!"

After saying that, Shen Qingge took out the water bag from her waist and carefully fed the child her spiritual spring water.

When the child's lips touched the sweet spiritual spring water, it was like sweet dew after a long drought. He sucked it eagerly. Soon, he drank most of the water in the water bag.

Old Madam Liu, who was standing by, had a very complicated expression, looking at Shen Qingge with shame and longing.

Everyone knows how precious water is...

Shen Qingge comforted him, "It's okay, just drink it. I think the child has almost finished drinking, so let's wait and see if the child can wake up!"

At this time, the sky gradually darkened, and occasionally a cool breeze blew by.

After an incense stick of time, a low sob came out of the little boy Liu Min's mouth, and he slowly opened his eyes...

It was not until this time that the Liu family finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Shen Qingge and her third sister-in-law Qin Qing smiled at each other, and then she stroked the child's forehead again.

"The fever is gone!"

"Thank God, thank you Madam Shen!"

Old Madam Liu's excitement was beyond words. She stood up staggeringly, handed her grandson to her son Liu Lin, and then reached out and held Shen Qingge's hand tightly.

Although the rest of the Liu family did not surround them immediately, they all looked at Shen Qingge with gratitude.

At this time, Zhao Du, who was not far away, saw the Liu family's reaction and started cursing again.

"Liu Lin, you old devil, don't forget how your family was exiled! It was because you were involved with the Shen family in the matter of distributing food and fodder to the Zhenbei Army.

That old scoundrel Shen Xiaolin, not only committed treason, but also gave food to the enemy. And you were suspected of being an accomplice, so your property was confiscated! If you turn against us just for a sip of water, I, Zhao Du, will be the first to look down on you!

When the Liu family heard this, the smiles on their faces froze instantly. After a moment, they all lowered their heads, turned around, and said nothing.

Old Madam Liu also quietly withdrew her hand that was tightly holding Shen Qingge, her face full of embarrassment.

Zhao Du saw that what he said had worked, and a smug look appeared on his face.

He wanted to disgust the Shen family, to unite with the other two families, to isolate the Shen family, and to make sure that no one in the Shen family would have an easy time on the road of exile! Then, he would torture the Shen family to death, so that the prince would see his ability and reinstate him!

The more he thought about it, the more he couldn't stop smiling...

Third sister-in-law Qin Qing looked at Shen Qingge helplessly, feeling powerless as if her kindness was taken as an insult. It was not worth it to lose so much water in vain!

Shen Qingge's expression remained calm. She could see that Zhao Du was deliberately making trouble. The more this happened, the more she had to act as if she didn't care.

She looked at Zhao Du coldly, as if she wanted to see through him, until his scalp tingled, until he had to avoid Shen Qingge's sharp gaze.

Then, Shen Qingge took her sister-in-law's hand and deliberately raised her voice: "Come on, sister-in-law, do you still have the meat pies your parents sent today? Let's go back and eat some meat pies!"

At this time, everyone was gnawing on the black-flour steamed buns dryly. Every bite made their teeth hurt, and every swallow made their throats feel like they were cut into a long bloody gash. They didn't dare to drink water. There was only a small bag, and each person finished it in one bite.

When they heard Shen Qingge say this, they were envious and hateful at the same time.

Shen Qingge didn't care and turned away. Third sister-in-law also smiled in relief.

As soon as they returned to the open space where the Shen family was, the grandmother began to complain:

"Ge'er, you can't do this! These people are colleagues of your father's, and they're speaking ill of our Shen family because of a misunderstanding. Once the misunderstanding is explained, everything will be fine. Harmony brings peace!"

"Yes, grandma is worried about us too! It's better to have less trouble than more. Grandma is also afraid that we will suffer losses."

Second sister-in-law Ye Yurou said gently.

Shen Qingge gently leaned her head on her grandmother's shoulder and responded in a coquettish tone, "Grandma, sometimes, the more you give in, the more others will push their buttons. Some people are just born evil, wicked to the core, and they won't change!"

Sister-in-law Wang Lan agreed, "That's true. Look at the Zhao family. They're clearly targeting us with malicious intent. If we keep giving in, they'll think we're afraid of them! Besides, our Ge'er is so good at singing. One of us can take on three. What's there to be afraid of?"

Fourth sister-in-law Jiang Yue and fifth sister-in-law Bai Yu also nodded in agreement. They should not be too weak when going out, especially since they are a group of women and children and cannot be looked down upon.

Grandma couldn't do anything about them, so she smiled and said, "Let them do whatever they want!"

At this moment, his nephew Shen Jintang was pulling his mother's sleeve and started to make a fuss: "Mom, I'm hungry..."

The other nephews and nieces also gathered around eagerly, and even the adults' stomachs started to growl.

Seeing this, the grandmother said, "Let's eat first. Everyone is tired and hungry after a day."

Third sister-in-law Qin Qing quickly distributed the remaining food in the bag to everyone.

Everyone started to eat voraciously without caring about their image. There was no other way. They had been traveling in the scorching sun for most of the day and everyone was very hungry!

Suddenly, Fourth Sister-in-law Jiang Yue, with an egg pancake in her mouth, said, "By the way, little sister, why didn't you let Third Sister-in-law buy white flour buns today?"
