Dressed as the best old lady in the famine years, I suddenly became rich

There was such a big difference between Zheng Hui's attitude and that of the government officials that Ke Muqing didn't even react.

Yang Wenxiao jumped on the bullock cart, took the slingshot, and then reported to Ke Muqing.

"Mom, Zheng Hui and I are going to hunt birds. You guys need to rest first and don't have to wait for me."

Ke Muqing waved his hand for Yang Wenxiao to play, and then asked Yang Yi and others to go to the other side of the open space to tidy up and prepare to spend the night there.

Ke Muqing prepared tents, but he only planned to use two tonight.

Men share one, and women use one with their children. It can keep out wind and insects.

Yang Yi and the others were very agile, so setting up such a simple tent was an easy task for them. They set up two tents in a short time, while Yang Shuangshuang and the other children looked on very seriously.

"Grandma, is this okay? Can we go in?" Yang Shuangshuang ran around the tent and returned to Ke Muqing and asked.

"Bring some hay in and put it on the ground, and then you can spread your bedding on the hay." Ke Muqing should try his best to create a comfortable sleeping environment for himself even when he is away from home.

The children said hello and ran to the bullock cart to move hay.

For the children who went out to sleep in the mountains for the first time, everything that happened today was particularly strange.

When laying out the bedding, several children spread their beddings together. Once they were laid, they lay down directly on them, looking left and right, chatting and laughing.

"Mom, that eldest girl from the Huang family is so weird. She came to our place alone. She didn't say whether she had something to do or what. She just stood outside our tent in a daze."

Zheng Qiu Shuang opened the tent door and walked in while talking to Ke Muqing. Yang Chengshaoyi in her arms saw that her brothers and sisters were all lying down and couldn't sit still. She screamed to find her brothers and sisters.

"I'll go take a look." Ke Muqing walked out with doubts, and saw the fifteen-year-old girl from the Huang family standing not far away, waiting for her.

The girl's clothes had been sewn, but after all, they were damaged by a whip. No matter how much they were mended, they could not be restored to their original appearance. Even the blood stains were still on the clothes.

"Little girl, what's the matter with you?" Ke Muqing didn't like the Huang family very much, so she asked without getting too close to the Huang family girl.

The girl seemed to have just noticed Ke Muqing coming over. She raised her head and glanced at Ke Muqing, then lowered her head and said in a low voice, "Nothing, I'll just stop here and go back in a while."

Ke Muqing noticed that the girl from the Huang family was holding something in her hands, and when she thought about the people of the Huang family, she subconsciously became vigilant.

"What are you holding in your hand?" Ke Muqing said, "If nothing happens, just leave. Don't stand here."

"Auntie, I just have some copper coins in my hand." The Huang family girl knew that what happened at noon would make the whole family hate her, so she simply opened her palms and gave Ke Muqing a look.

Then he explained, "My father and the eldest lady asked me to bring some copper coins to the aunt and ask if there are any leftovers that can be sold to us."

Ke Muqing's eyes fell on the palm of the girl from the Huang family. A rough calculation showed that the copper coins she held in her hands were roughly fifty or sixty yuan.

Ke Muqing felt that this girl was a bit strange. Since she was here to buy leftovers from her family, why did she ask her what was the matter at first, but she said it was nothing and just stood here for a while and then left. Although she said this later, she put away the two hands holding the copper coins and had no intention of giving the coins to Ke Muqing.

"Let's go. Not to mention that we don't have any leftovers. Even if we do, we won't sell them to your Huang family." Ke Muqing waved his hands and started to chase people away. "We have to rest too. After a long journey, you also Go back and rest early."

"Madam, I will just stand there for a little while. If I go back too soon, Madam will say that I am not paying attention to my work, and I will be beaten again."

"Please rest, I won't say anything. I'll stand quietly for a while and then I'll leave." The girl from the Huang family looked at Ke Muqing with pleading eyes, repeatedly promising that she would never disturb him.

Seeing this, Ke Muqing stopped chasing people away, but he also didn't stay there to hang out with the Huang family girl. He turned around and went to the tent of Yang Jiye's brothers.

"Mom, why are you here?" Yang Jimin hurriedly stood up and asked, "Mom, will your tent be crowded? If it's too crowded, let Cheng Zhuo and the other children come here together."

"No, those children like to crowd together. They are all brothers and sisters. We ordinary people don't have so many rules."

Ke Muqing feels that it would be good for her children to be closer together along the way. With the relationship that has accompanied them along the way, the relationship between brothers and sisters will be deeper when they grow up.

"I came here to explain to you that during the night vigil, we should keep an eye on the people in the Huang family." Ke Muqing said, "Also keep an eye on the things on our bullock carts, and don't let anyone steal our things at night."

Yang Yi and the others had to drive the carriage during the day, so Yang Jiye and the others who were keeping watch at night came in turns with those who would not be driving the carriage tomorrow.

After explaining, Ke Muqing returned to the tent next door.

"Mom, what did the Huang family girl do here?" Zheng Qiu Shuang just stood at the tent door and eavesdropped for a while but still couldn't figure out what the girl was here for.

"It's not like she came to buy our leftovers. You see, she just mentioned it and didn't ask if we had any leftovers. But you said she was okay. You drove her away, and she was very Have to stand a little longer."

As soon as Zheng Qiu Shuang finished speaking, Chen Nier immediately answered, "With so many people in our family, how can there be any leftovers? Originally, it was cooked according to the quantity, but it was really a little too much. With so many people, everyone can't even share a bite. It’s over, how can there be anything left?”

When the Yang family went south, Chen Nier felt that she had to make trouble at home, and that she had to come out to find trouble if she didn't stay in the village.

But when they stayed in the tent at night, Chen Nier felt happy again when she heard that Yang Jiye could not live alone with Feng Ying.

Ke Muqing got into her bed and lay down first, and then analyzed the matter with the people who were staring at her.

"I don't think the Huang family is holding anything back." Ke Muqing said, "At noon, there was an incident of children snatching food from our family. Both families were at odds. If they really wanted to buy leftovers, the Huang family wouldn't even have the guts to do so. Find our home."

"Listen to what Yang Yi said, this girl of the Huang family is a concubine of the Huang family, and she is not loved by the Huang family's uncle and old lady. You see, the Huang family asked her to do things like grabbing food at noon. Obviously, she didn't I thought about worrying about the reputation of a girl of this age.”

"That is to say, as long as the Huang family does bad things, they will let this daughter do it."

Feng Ying nodded in agreement, "Mom is right. Today I saw the eldest wife of the Huang family pulling this girl out in front of her, and no one in the Huang family criticized her. It shows that in their view, this matter is natural and nothing." Wrong place."

Ke Muqing thought about what Yang Yi told her today about the Huang family. The Huang family's words and actions were really like rats in the gutter, so she just asked Yang Jiye and others to keep an eye on the Huang family.
