Chapter 11176

The boat slowly docked at the shallowest water level of the river dam behind the village. There were still more than ten steps of sticky water grass and mud road to reach the dry grassland at the foot of the mountain, where seven or eight large pots were set up for cooking.

A dozen women were cooking there. Cooking was secondary, the main purpose was to take this opportunity to get together and chat.

The daughter-in-law of the east family and the mother-in-law of the west family were all gossips among the farmers. But because everyone had recently brought their families to the grassland to avoid the disaster, relatives and friends spontaneously gathered together to form a big tent, and the whole family gathered together to eat in a big pot, and several daughters-in-law took turns cooking.

So, those families who had separated in the past, such as the Yang family, and many similar families in the village, all came together again temporarily.

During the first two or three meals, everyone was polite to each other, but as time went on, after a day or two, all kinds of small conflicts arose.

Some families are more rational and know how to endure. Even if they have some dissatisfaction, they will keep it to themselves. Anyway, they won't live like this forever.

Some people cannot keep secrets, or cannot suffer even the slightest loss, so these past two days, I often heard people quarreling in someone's tent.

Whenever one family quarrels, other families nearby will be alarmed and gather around to watch the fun under the pretext of trying to stop the fight.

When they saw Yang Ruoqing and the others coming off the boat, the women who were busy cooking and chatting rushed to greet them.

Liu was among them. Her task was to guard one of the stove fires. When she saw Sun and Wang Cuilian coming, she was so excited that she threw the fire stick in her hand to the ground, stood up and ran to Sun and Wang Cuilian like an excited fool.

He grabbed the hands of others and shouted excitedly, "Sister Cui Lian, Third Sister, haha, I haven't seen Sister Cui Lian for many days, I dream about her!"

When Wang Cuilian heard Liu's words, she was immediately moved and held Liu's hand tightly with both hands, "Aunt, I'm sorry for you. You still miss me and even dream about me..."

I'm really sorry, Wang Cuilian said to herself, I have never dreamed of you once.

"Auntie, don't be so moved," Yang Ruoqing said with a smile, "Just ask my fourth aunt what she dreamed about you."

"Ah?" Wang Cuilian was a little confused and didn't quite understand what Yang Ruoqing meant.

"I really had a dream, but I forgot what it was about when I woke up. My brain isn't working very well and I can't remember anything..." Liu added anxiously.

Yang Ruoqing smiled and said to Liu: "Fourth Aunt, I came to the pasture this morning, and the first thing you said to me when you saw me was that you missed me and that you had dreamed about me these past few days."

"I asked you what you dreamed about, but you couldn't remember clearly. Why, you really have been busy in your dreams these past two days, huh?"

Liu knew that her lie had been seen through by Yang Ruoqing, and Wang Cuilian and Sun also understood it, and everyone smiled kindly.

Liu's lie was exposed, but she was not embarrassed at all. Instead, she continued to hold Wang Cuilian's hand and said to Yang Ruoqing, "Qing'er has this bad habit. She loves to spoil things. We old sisters haven't seen each other for a few days. When we get together to say a few intimate words, she has to spoil things. Eh!"

Yang Ruoqing also laughed.

"Aunt Fourth is exaggerating, and I love to spoil things. Look, we complement each other perfectly!"

"Well, that seems to be the case."

When Liu saw the baskets brought by Sun and Wang Cuilian, which were full of several birds, her eyes lit up again.

"Third sister-in-law, you brought all these? That's great. We've been eating so little these days, and dad and the others want to eat some fruits and vegetables!" Sun said, "I brought this basket of radishes."

The other two baskets of things were what Wang Cuilian brought to the Sun family and Xiaoduo and the others, and there was no portion prepared for the Yang family.

But Sun's personality meant that she was embarrassed to say it too clearly in person.

  Since Sun didn't explain clearly, Wang Cuilian felt embarrassed. She even wondered whether she should temporarily give some to the Yang family.

At this time, Yang Ruoqing's voice rang in Liu's ears: "The things from our Luo family are for my Gagong and Duoer. The children have been eating and drinking at Duoer's place these days and have eaten up all of Duoer's food."

"Ah? Is that so?" There was a hint of regret in Liu's eyes.

Yang Ruoqing nodded: "Yes, that's right, so don't think about it, Fourth Aunt, there's no share for you if you think too much, just eat the big pot meal here with peace of mind!"

Liu responded and grinned: "I eat well here and I can get paid. This is all because of your care for me, Qing'er. I understand, I understand everything!"

"Since you understand, then work hard and don't be lazy."

"Auntie, mother, let's go to the pasture!"

"it is good."

Yang Ruoqing carried a basket in one hand and walked in front to lead the way, and Sun and Wang Cuilian quickly followed.

The food here smells delicious, and there are eight large pots cooking rice and dishes. As she walked past, Wang Cuilian was infected by the atmosphere.

It felt like these days of fleeing weren't that hard. Everyone was busy waiting for the men who could work to come over for dinner, and it became even more lively here.

However, when Wang Cuilian followed Yang Ruoqing and Sun into the grassland, and saw the tents one after another in the distance, as well as groups of villagers and children of all sizes running and playing, Wang Cuilian had an illusion that she was not in the grassland, but in the northern grasslands and the life scenes of nomadic peoples that Tuoba Xian often mentioned to Wang Cuilian a long time ago when he was still living in Luo's house...

It was so similar that Wang Cuilian felt as if she had come to the place Tuoba Xian had mentioned...

"Mother Qing'er, this tent looks pretty good!"

"Hehe, Sister Cui Lian, how about staying here tonight?"

Wang Cuilian was embarrassed and kept shaking her head: "No, no, I won't do that. People will scold me to death."

"You have no choice but to do this. I left my bed at home and came here to live in a tent. People are going to poke me in the back!"

Chatting and laughing, everyone came to Xiaoduo's house.

Xiaoduo is making the bed in the room.

When Xiaoduo heard the noise and came out of the house, she was overjoyed to see Sun and Wang Cuilian bringing so many things over.

Sun and Wang Cuilian left a lot of things for Xiaoduo. Sun also left all the children's shoes, socks and clothes that she brought from home with Xiaoduo, and then went to the Sun family's tent with Wang Cuilian.

Finally, Yang Ruoqing stayed in the Sun family tent with Wang Cuilian to talk, while Sun herself delivered the radish back to the old Yang family tent.
