Chapter 233 231. Wu Family
"Mom, I don't know where they have gone now, have they found Pinghe Village?" A middle-aged woman poured boiled water into each kettle while chatting with her mother-in-law.

They did not live in the resettlement houses with the refugees who came over there, but set up tents not far away to build a simple home.

"Whether they are found or not, they will come back tomorrow at the latest, and Tianxiang and the others will definitely abide by the time set by themselves." Grandma Wu took her reading glasses to carefully identify the wild fungi that were picked up. These wild fungi are still her own children and grandchildren. They picked it up in the mountains and forests they ran far away.

"Don't let them go out tomorrow. Fortunately, they brought weapons this time. Otherwise, a big wild boar would be enough for them to drink a pot." Mama Wu also sat down to clean up the fungus with her mother-in-law after finishing the work in hand.

"There is no way around this. If we don't find a way out, then everyone will starve to death together. Crisis comes with opportunities. Now that we have such a wild boar, we can temporarily solve our predicament."

"It's not that they dare not bring it back, and I don't know if the place they are looking for is safe." Thinking of all the old and young in her family going to deal with the wild boar, Mother Wu was still a little worried.

"I hope no one finds out, otherwise there will definitely be a dispute." Grandma Wu picked up a wild mushroom, "See if this one is a little different from the others. Why do I look at it? spot."

"There are really spots." Madam Wu took it and carefully identified it before returning to her. "Let's put this aside for now. I don't know if it is poisonous. I will take it out and ask others later."

"Grandma, we're back." Wu Tianshou shouted to them from afar.

"Did I hear Ah Shou's voice?" The old man's eyes were a little blurred, but his ears were still very sensitive.

"They are back." Mother Wu hurriedly confirmed with the old man.

"Looking at his relaxed tone, there should be something good." Grandma Wu continued to check the wild mushrooms in her hand.

"It's not a good thing. Look at the smiles on their faces." Mama Wu greeted them.

"Auntie." Wu Tianxiang and the others greeted Wu's mother.

"Come back and take a rest, it's been a hard journey." Mama Wu looked at the young men in front of her with bags in their hands.

"Grandma, look what we brought back for you." Brother Wu Tianfu and the others began to gather around the old lady.

"Mom, is everything okay at home?" After greeting his grandma, Angkor asked his mother.

"It's all good. Your dad and the others killed a wild boar when they went to pick wild mushrooms. Now everyone in the family has followed suit. It's been so long, and they should be back soon."

"Is anyone injured? Which direction are we going to pick them up?" Angkor was a little worried. If outsiders found out, there would be another dispute.

"No one was injured. They were all armed at the time. Sit down and rest quickly. They are almost coming back soon, and you don't know the exact location. Don't run around in vain. I'll pour you some water."

"Auntie, you come here first. It's thanks to the eldest brother that he brought us so much food. Come quickly and taste the cooking of sister-in-law Cheng." After only half a day of getting along, Wu Tianshou and the others have already called him affectionately. Brother Cheng and sister-in-law Cheng!
"Are you looking for someone?" Looking at the huge pile of food in front of her mother-in-law, she asked in surprise.

"I found it, and their village is pretty good, and they agreed that we can settle there."

"The main reason is that there are three comrades of the eldest brother over there, and we were not considered outsiders in the past." Wu Tianxi added after his brother.

"Then you are too ignorant, how can you bring back so much food from others? It is not easy for anyone at this time."

Seeing that his mother was about to start preaching, Angkor hurriedly interrupted, "Mom, we are usually like brothers, and we will spend a long time together in the future, and we can always reciprocate."

"Okay, eldest daughter-in-law, let them deal with it from now on. We just need to take care of the rear. I see a bag of millet over there. Let's cook them into porridge later. Everyone will nourish their stomachs tonight." Mrs. Wu had a good impression of Yun Qi and the others before they met, and her intentions could be seen from the meals they arranged.

The Wu family is a big family. The head of the family, Wu Xiaobai, is over 70 years old. Because he exercises regularly, his physical strength is better than some people in their 50s and [-]s.

And he has four sons named Wu Qingshi, Wu Qingshui, Wu Qingshan, and Wu Qingquan. He has six grandsons, plus his daughter-in-law and great-grandson, and a family of more than 20 people.

The Wu family's yang was prosperous and yin was in decline, and they hadn't raised a daughter for several generations, and he was a tall man, so no one dared to provoke him along the way.

When it was completely dark, Wu Xiaobai led the whole family back in the dark.

"We're back." Wu Xiaobai said as he vaguely saw someone looking around in front of the tent.

"Master, you're back." Wu Tianshou and the others came out after so long to take a look, and when they heard the voice of their own grandfather, they hurried up to greet him.

"You guys are back too. Did the journey go well?" Wu Xiaobai was very optimistic. Although his grandson said that there are comrades in arms here who can look for them, maybe they can find a place to stay, but he likes to do everything with both hands. In the past two days, although they were looking for wild vegetables everywhere, they also looked around to see if there was any suitable place to settle down.

After entering the tent, a family of more than 20 people packed the entire tent tightly. Everyone quickly put all the things on their backs together, and then walked to the open space outside.

"Let's deal with these things later, go eat something first." Wu Xiaobai also drove out the sons who were still standing beside him.

"This is what Ah Xiang and the others brought back." Looking at the millet and red date porridge in his own bowl, the old man looked up at the family's bowls again, and found that everyone had them, so he lowered his head and began to drink the porridge.

Others were holding the porridge, looked at the mung bean cake on the table and wanted to ask, but when they saw the old man bowing his head to drink the porridge, they suppressed their curiosity and began to enjoy this rare meal.

"What's the situation over there?" The old man asked when he saw that everyone had finished their bowls.

Wu Tianxiang told what he saw and heard along the way, and focused on introducing some information about Pinghe Village.

"Let's talk about everyone's opinions. Let's see if we should move to Pinghe Village, or we should find another place where there is no one to settle down." In the past few days, the Wu family has also looked around, and really let them find a more suitable one. place of residence.

"It's more risky to live alone. For example, we only encountered one wild boar today. If we encounter a herd of wild boars, we may not be able to escape unscathed." Wu Qingshan made a comparison between the two situations in his heart, and he was more inclined to move to Pinghe village.
