The end of natural disasters: the daily life of child brides in ancient times

Before noon, all the people who had gone out to look for wood returned, and this time they brought back enough trees.

While everyone was processing the wood, the women had already prepared the meal.

At lunch, none of the injured people in each family had fever again, and everyone got up to eat.

Because there were so many injured people, most families made porridge, which was easier to digest.

Even Senior Brother Luo, who fainted yesterday, looks to be in good spirits now.

He even drank two large bowls of porridge at lunch. He wanted to drink more, but was persuaded by Li Rui next to him.

If you drink too much of this porridge, you will urinate more, and it will be easy to hurt your wound when you stand up.

After lunch, everyone gathered around the seized items.

Lu Tianming was injured and unable to move around, so Lu Shuhe, under his father's guidance, gave a brief account of the things that had been seized.

The most common items inside were water bags and gourds for water, as well as a small amount of copper coins and other miscellaneous odds and ends.

Except for the copper coins, anyone who needs the other items can just take them back.

In fact, most people don’t look down on these “junks”. They already have the things inside, and they are better than these things.

A few families thought the water bags were good and picked one to take home.

Only Lu Laosan looked at the pile of things on the ground as if he had found a treasure.

When he joined the others, he had almost nothing but his tattered clothes. Even the refugees were wearing better clothes than him.

Before dragging the body in the morning, Lu Laosan found a few sets of clothes that were not too torn and took them off.

At this moment, Lu Laosan looked at the pile of things on the ground and felt that everything was good!

He politely made way for others, and when he saw that no one else was picky, he squatted down beside them and started picking at the food.

He took four water bags and picked up a bunch of miscellaneous items.

Seeing this, Lu Tianming knew his situation and ignored him. He directly asked Lu Shuhe to distribute the copper coins.

The copper coins were divided equally according to the number of people, and each person received two copper coins.

Tian Fu Niang took the copper coins she had received, carefully put them in her arms, and spat.

"Bah, those guys are such poor bastards! We worked so hard and only got two copper coins!"

As she spoke, Tian Fu Niang came close to her son and daughter-in-law, and her eyes sparkled as she looked at the copper coins in their hands.

"My son, Xiu'er, this money is not much, I'll keep it for you. You are young and can't handle money, so I will save it for you and help my eldest grandson find a wife in the future."

Lu Tianfu took two steps towards his wife cautiously, keeping a distance from his mother.

He knows his mother best. If he gets too close, the coin will be snatched away!

When dividing the large pieces of barley before, his mother felt that the amount of money was too much and was embarrassed to ask for it. Now she only asked for two cents, which showed her vicious side!

Shi Xiu'er felt a little embarrassed. It was rare for her mother-in-law to speak, so she wanted to hand over the copper coins.

As soon as he stretched out his hand, Lu Tianfu snatched it away.

"Xiu'er, keep this money. Our mother has more money. Don't worry about it. I know the money!"

Tianfu's mother looked at her son's attitude and knew that the money was hopeless. She curled her lips, turned around, picked up her eldest grandson, and started chatting with him.

Lu Laosan, who was still picking up "junk", heard that he was asked to take the money. He quickly brushed the dust off his hands and took the two copper coins with care.

Then, he carefully put it into the cloth bag on his chest.

After Qin Lang got the copper coin, he rarely handed it over.

He moved closer to Lu Qingqing next to him and whispered:

"Daya, when I went out to pee earlier, my brothers all said I had no money. Can I keep these two copper coins myself?"

Lu Qingqing thought about it and felt that given the playful personalities of Li Rui and the others, it was really possible that they would play this joke on Qin Lang.

She returned to the carriage, took out a small purse from the space, and took out a few silver coins and put them into the purse.

Then, he took Qin Lang's two copper coins and put them in together with his own two. Now his little purse was completely bulging.

On the side, Qin Lang looked at the bulging little purse with sparkling eyes.

Lu Qingqing tied the small purse around Qin Lang's waist, tied it firmly and patted it, feeling good.

Qin Lang looked down at the purse tied around his body and felt that the purse Daya tied for him looked better than those worn by his senior brothers!

After patting his purse, Qin Lang went to find some senior brothers to show off his small purse.

In the cave, after each family divided the money, they began to process the wood.

With the experience of building the gate before, everyone worked together and finished the gate in half an afternoon.

The newly installed gate looks very safe.

After the door was secured, Lu Qingqing and Qin Lang took a rare opportunity to lie down on the mat and rest.

At this time before, everyone was practicing martial arts with Master Yan.

But there were too many people injured last night, and there was a lot of work to do, so Master Yan let everyone rest and recuperate first.

In the evening, Mrs. Yao felt better and was able to stand up and walk around.

Lu Tianming couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that all the injured people in the cave were not seriously injured.

It was not until the third day, when Lu Tianming saw that most people were able to get up and walk, that he arranged for people to fetch water.

They were supposed to go fetch water on the day before, but because there were so many injured people, Lu Tianming asked each family to recuperate first.

But because of the injuries, every family made some porridge, and the water consumption was actually higher than usual.

If we don’t fetch water now, everyone’s buckets will be empty.

Early that morning, those with less serious injuries went to the first round first, and Lu Qingqing and Qin Lang were among them.

When going out again this time, Lu Qingqing found that the refugees passing by looked at them with fear and consciously avoided them.

Lu Qingqing looked back at the team and found that everyone in the team had a solemn expression and a murderous aura, which, coupled with the big swords at their waists, was indeed terrifying.

The group arrived at the pond safely and found that the water level in the pond had dropped even more seriously this time!

As usual, there were still many refugees by the pond.

When Lu Qingqing was fetching water, she heard a refugee not far away say in fear:

"Brother Quan, I heard someone over there has been infected with the plague. Is that true?"

The man called Brother Quan sighed:

"How could this be fake? I saw him from afar. He was lying on the ground, vomiting and defecating. He looked exactly like those people who had the plague outside the mountain!"

The refugee muttered in panic.

"Oh my! What should we do? There's a plague on the mountain. I'm afraid no one will survive!"

Without waiting for Lu Qingqing to respond, the village chief spoke first:

"Did you all hear that? If what that person said is true, then we're in trouble!"

The others also looked terrified, but there was nothing they could do at this moment so they could only quickly fetch water and go back.

Lu Qingqing looked carefully around the pool and didn't see any corpses or suspected plague patients, so she breathed a sigh of relief.

The group quickly rushed back to the cave and told everyone in the cave what had happened. The whole cave was in an uproar.

They went up the mountain to avoid the plague, but now the plague has appeared in the mountain.

Seeing everyone in a panic, Lu Qingqing raised her voice to suppress the other voices and said:

"I don't see any plague patients around the pond. Everyone needs to get some water quickly so we can stock up!"
