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

When Old Zhuang heard about the wine, a smile appeared on his face.

"Didn't you say you were out of wine last time? Why are you still hiding it!"

"Alright, bring that wine over at noon, I'll make you some spicy rabbit!"

Bai Song smiled and agreed.

Lu Qingqing had grown accustomed to seeing Bai Song obediently take away two rabbits.

She had two of them sent to Qian Chengzhi.

In addition, she left three for Old Man Zhuang and Sun Yue, and asked Bai Song to distribute the rest to the villagers.

When Bai Song heard her mention dividing the food, he knew she wanted to help those who had run out of food.

He clicked his tongue twice, but didn't say anything more.

That morning, many people were skinning rabbits and chopping rabbit meat.

While Bai Song was dividing the rabbit meat, he suddenly had an idea.

He placed the rabbit meat and grain directly on the table.

On one side was the rabbit meat that Lu Qingqing had given them, and on the other side was the grain that could be exchanged for three pounds of grain.

Apart from Manager Wu and Xu Erniu, all the other villagers needed the grain.

In the end, there was hardly any less rabbit meat on the table.

Bai Song looked at Qian Chengzhi not far away and approached him with a smile.

The two chatted for a while, and then Qian Chengzhi brought over some more grain, which he exchanged for some meat to take back.

Those who are in charge can't just eat the meat themselves while their subordinates watch.

By lunchtime, the entire camp was filled with the aroma of rabbit meat.

The soldiers under Bai Song and the guards under Qian Chengzhi ate rabbit stew with dried vegetables for lunch.

Qian Chengzhi, Bai Songyanxu, and others came to Old Man Zhuang's side.

A large group of people looked at the sizzling, spicy rabbit meat on the table and couldn't help but swallow their saliva.

After Old Man Zhuang started eating, the others quickly followed suit.

It had been quite a while since they had eaten such flavorful food, and the group nodded in approval as they ate the rabbit meat.

On the other side, those who lost their luggage were also given some meat soup.

It turned out that Bai Song and Qian Chengzhi had given prior instructions.

Tell the person cooking to add more broth when stewing the meat.

Now, they are eating hot flatbread and drinking hot meat soup.

Those families who left their belongings felt that they could get by again.

After lunch, Lu Qingqing and the others went to the gentle slope to check the situation.

By now, the muddy water had mostly receded to the edge of the mountain path.

Looking at the area where the water had receded, which was covered in mud, clods of earth, and branches, the men's faces did not look too good.

If the roads remain like this after the floodwaters recede, their journey ahead will be very difficult.

Even if the road is difficult, they have to grit their teeth and keep going.

Even if we could return, let alone whether the road we traveled had been damaged by mudslides.

But if you don't take this mountain path, the detour will be much longer.

Bai Song sighed and waved for everyone to go back and pack their belongings.

Lu Qingqing looked at the situation below the mountain path and then retrieved the most protective face mask.

At the same time, everyone was reminded to wear masks properly during their journey.

After all, nobody knows whether there are germs in this sludge.

For those households without masks, everyone searched and found old, unused masks.

But even so, it's still not enough.

Lu Qingqing simply took out a piece of cloth and prepared scissors and needle and thread.

The women from the East Courtyard quickly cut and sewed, trying to finish the masks before they left.

About half an hour later, the water on the mountain path receded completely.

By this time, everyone had already packed their things and was waiting to set off.

Before setting off, Bai Song called out Xu Erniu, who was with the women in the East Courtyard.

Nowadays, the ground is covered with mud and stones, making it easy to slip and fall if you're not careful.

Under these circumstances, it was naturally inappropriate for the pregnant Xu Erniu to leave.

Since there were no spare carriages, Bai Song gave up his own carriage and let Xu Erniu sit inside.

He and Bai Xu sat on the carriage shaft, driving the carriage.

This time, the formation was completely different.

Soldiers, guards, and villagers without luggage walked ahead, responsible for clearing obstacles such as large rocks and logs from the road.

The carriage lagged behind.

However, the road surface after a mudslide is extremely difficult to clean.

It took more than fifteen minutes to walk more than ten meters.

At this rate, it's unlikely we'll be able to get down the mountain before dark.

Bai Song and Qian Chengzhi were anxious, but they could only proceed step by step.

More than an hour later, the people at the front of the line were already panting heavily from exhaustion.

Seeing this, Bai Song and Qian Chengzhi arranged for people to stop and rest for a while.

When they set off again, the person who was catching the train was replaced.

Lu Qingqing and Qin Lang also took turns going down to clear a section of the road.

The group cleared a section and then moved forward.

We didn't reach the foot of the mountain until it was almost dark.

However, the area at the foot of the mountain is even more chaotic than the mountain path.

The mudslide bends here, and many large rocks and trees are piled up here.

Those large rocks were clearly not easy to move.

Everyone was dumbfounded by the scene before them.

I've been exhausted all afternoon and can't get any further?

Bai Song angrily slapped the mud off his hands and walked towards the carriage, cursing under his breath.
