Chapter 261: The Cubs Being Treated as Two-legged Sheep on the Road to Exile (2)
The old grandmother of the Wei family sat on the cart pulled by Wei Laoer, looking at the Fang and Hu families behind her quarreling over the remaining things, and then looking at the harmony and friendship in her own family. She felt as comfortable as if she had eaten a bowl of ice in the dog days of summer.
Uncle Wei and Old Man Wei followed their mother's gaze and sighed deeply.
"Alas, ever since the death of Mr. Fang and Mr. Hu, these two families have become useless!"
"Never mind them, as long as we are fine!" said Boss Wei.
"Yes, as long as we are fine!"
"Haha, great, we are free!"
"Yes, we are free!"
The eldest daughter in Song Yuxian's arms also giggled, "Mom, we are free!"
The little girl didn’t know what freedom meant, but she saw that everyone in the family was happy when they talked about this word, so she was happy too!
Song Yuxian smiled and pinched the little girl whose face had shrunk a little, "Yes, we are free now. Linglong can eat whatever she wants in the future!"
"Really? Linglong wants to eat meat. She hasn't eaten it for a long time. And some sweet snacks," the four-year-old girl shouted happily, clapping her thinning hands.
"Okay, when we find a place to rest, Mom will give Linglong some meat and sweet snacks," Song Yuxian kissed the little girl's face and said with a smile.
The Wei family members who were walking beside Song Yuxian couldn't help laughing when they heard what the mother and daughter said. It was great that they were finally free!
Wei Keyuan did not stay with the mother and daughter, but walked in front. He was looking for a place suitable for resting at night and avoiding the crowd.
It was not until the evening that they came to a deserted village and decided to rest there for a while.
Wei Keyuan brought the Wei family to the village and looked at the largest empty house in the yard.
The owner of the house must have gone to escape famine.
I guess he was still thinking about coming back in the future, so except for the more portable things, all the other large items were basically left at home.
The Wei family had no intention of destroying the owner's belongings, so they were very cautious during the action.
The owner of this empty house was probably a wealthy man in the village. There were eight rooms in the house, which was more than enough to accommodate them.
The yard was big and the wall was high, and except for being covered in dust, this house was the best they had lived in in the past few months.
Looking at this luxurious house, the Wei family members were very excited and they all asked to stay here for a while longer.
Wei Keyuan looked at the environment. The house was some distance away from the village entrance and was relatively safe. However, he still had to be careful not to open fire during the day to avoid attracting passing refugees.
I told the Wei family about my discovery and ideas. They decided to cook more food at night when they couldn't see anything, and try not to cook during the day. Anyway, the weather was warm now, so it was okay to eat cold food.
Wei Keyuan and his four brothers collected more than a dozen bundles of firewood from several nearby courtyards, then found a few large wooden stakes to prop up the gate of their current residence, and began a rare rest.
Wei Keyuan took out ten large vats and four large wooden barrels from the space, so that everyone could take a comfortable bath tonight.
There are still a lot of ready-made meals in the space, so there is no need to light the fire tonight. It’s just the right time to boil some hot water for a bath.
It has been a long time since I had a good hot shower. No, it should be said that I haven’t even had a good cold shower.
It was still okay for men. When they came across a stream or lake, they could jump into the water to wash themselves. But it was not the same for women. They could only avoid people and wipe themselves. Later on, there was not even water to wipe themselves.
So, tonight they can finally have a good soak.
With hot water, women took a little longer to take a bath.
The men of the Wei family didn't mind. After Wei Keyuan took out the food, they didn't wait for the women, but started eating and drinking first. Of course, they didn't forget to add firewood to boil hot water. After all, everyone needed to take a shower, so a lot of hot water was needed.
They washed and ate together until the late night, when the small farm finally quieted down.
The next day, everyone woke up late as expected.
There was nothing to do after getting up, so even if they woke up, everyone would lie on the kang and whisper to each other.
Occasionally, you can hear some loving voices from the couple. After several months, the couple can finally sleep in a room alone~~
Wei Keyuan was the first to wake up as usual. He didn't go out the door, but jumped over the wall directly and cleared all traces of their entry into the village.
This village is quite secluded, so he decided to stay here for a while.
Thus, the Wei family, who had been wandering for four months, could finally live a peaceful life again.
