Excessive bloody smell would attract wild animals. Fortunately, the villagers in the toilet did not keep Xu Yue and others waiting for too long.
It turned out that there was noise from the villagers venting their anger. After a while, the courtyard was lit up with flames, and the villagers worked together to burn the bodies of the robbers.
After a busy night, Xu Yue and others were already very hungry. Despite the faint smell of burning, the dinner was very delicious.
Xu Dongbei and Xu Pingyuan drank two large bowls of milk and each ate an egg.
The eggs were purchased from the villagers at Kingfisher's hometown. They are native eggs, which are original and pollution-free.
Even though they were not big, a basket of boiled eggs made Xu Yue want to eat two more after eating two.
Unfortunately, when she reached out, the boiled eggs had been divided up by the members and she touched the air.
Xu Yue licked her lips, still feeling a little unfinished.
Xu Da was peeling the egg that belonged to him in his hand, and suddenly he felt a bit chilly behind him. When he looked back, Xu Dalang was winking at him, which was full of threats and inducements.
Xu Da frowned and looked at the peeled eggs in his hands with reluctance. He struggled a lot in his heart, but finally couldn't resist the murderous gaze of his elder brother. He stuffed the eggs into his daughter's hands with a loving look on his face.
superior.
Xu Yue, who didn't know the truth, was so moved, "Dad~"
Xu Da smiled and nodded, "Eat more if you like, and eat quickly."
Xu Yue nodded fiercely, holding the peeled eggs in her hands, not wanting to finish blowing them too quickly, and ate them in small bites.
Xu Da: Please eat quickly!
"Dad?" Xu Yue noticed her old father's burning eyes and turned to look over.
Xu Da's expression changed quickly, he nodded lovingly, and urged, "Eat quickly."
Xu Yue: "Yeah."
The shelled eggs were delivered directly to her. Dad was so kind to her.
In the past, she thought that her father only cared about himself and would not care about his children. Now it seems that she thought of her father wrongly. In fact, he is really a good person. Xu Yue thought happily in her heart.
Xu Da: Thank you!
...
After dinner, everyone sat around the fire in front of the tent to discuss tomorrow's route, hoping to reach Hejian County as soon as possible.
With her father taking care of the route, Xu Yue took the twins and Kingfisher and used sticks to write pinyin on the ground to teach them how to read.
Kingfisher never thought that he would have the opportunity to learn to read, and he was simply flattered.
Xu Yue said with a smile: "In Youzhou, as long as children are over six years old, they have to start attending school to learn to read."
Kingfisher asked in surprise: "Are all the people in Youzhou so rich?"
Every family can afford to go to private school. Kingfisher cannot imagine how wealthy they must be.
Xu Yue shook her head, wrote the word "Kingfisher" on the ground, marked the pinyin, and explained:
“The elementary literacy class is free, you just need to bring your own paper and pen.”
"There are big buns!" Xu Dongbei said excitedly next to him. He had gone to the school with Uncle Adou and the others. The lunch there was delicious.
"Studying well has big drumsticks, Daniel does, Adou doesn't." Xu Dongbei added.
Although he didn't know who Daniel and Adou were, Kingfisher still showed envy when he heard the words "big chicken legs".
At the same time, I was also surprised by the expressive ability of the Son of God.
This is just a two-year-old child. Thinking of those two-year-old children in the village who are still rolling around on the ground, and looking at this one in front of him, Kingfisher feels extremely sad.
Sure enough, there are walls between people.
"Seriously, follow me and say cui cui, four tones..." Xu Yue pointed to the word cui on the ground and taught her patiently.
When Kingfisher heard that it was his name, he glanced at Xu Yue in surprise, and received a positive answer from her smiling eyes, and his face turned red with excitement.
For the first time, she knew that the word "cui" in her name was like this.
Twenty miles of physical training during the day did not affect Kingfisher's energy at night. Young people always have unlimited energy as long as they have a full stomach.
After Kingfisher and the twins were able to spell out the word Cui, Xu Yue continued to teach the next word for bird.
While he was reading the spelling, the villagers came out of Li Zheng's house, and thirty people came towards the camp in a mighty manner.
Kingfisher and the twins wisely stood behind Xu Yue and ended tonight's teaching.
Xu Yue stood up, and the thirty people plus the eight villagers who had just been rescued, a total of thirty-eight people, all stood together.
A thin man in his early twenties with sunken cheeks raised his hand, and the villagers knelt down toward the camp.
Xu Darao raised his eyebrows with interest. Wen Qing glanced at Xu Yue, stopped wanting to step forward and help the person up, and waited to see what happened.
"What do you mean?" Xu Yue asked doubtfully.
The villagers didn't say anything. They bent down and kowtowed three times in a row. The leader, a very thin young man, said hoarsely:
"My name is Zhou Yu, and my father is an upright person in the village. Five days ago, a group of robbers suddenly came to the village. Taking advantage of the fact that the villagers were not paying attention to spring plowing, they robbed the villagers of their food and money, and also dragged away their hard-earned crops.
Cattle and sheep.”
"When my father found out, he led the strong men in the village to resist, but instead he angered the robbers. The next day they led the entire village down the mountain, killing many innocent villagers, and even took my father..."
Having said this, Zhou Yu took several deep breaths, but still couldn't hold it back, tears fell down, "They threw my father alive into the boiling cauldron and cooked..."
"All the women in the village were bullied by them, and their children were robbed... Today, there are only 38 people left in the village of 150."
Zhou Yu raised her hand to wipe away her tears, choked with sobs and took a deep breath. After calming down, she took three more licks at Xu Yue.
Xu Yue couldn't stop him in time, so she could only stand aside and avoid it.
"Thank you Xu Jiajun today for allowing my father and the villagers who died tragically to take revenge!"
"Now I am the only one left in the family, and the meager property has been used up by the robbers. I only have this humble life. If the leader does not dislike it, Zhou Yu will be at the mercy of the leader!"
After saying that, he was about to kowtow again. This time, Xu Yue rushed forward and grabbed Zhou Yu's back collar.
Then, she heard the sound of "stabbing" as the cloth broke under the weight. Xu Yue awkwardly looked at the piece of linen in her hand that was torn off with a gentle lift, and looked at Zhou Yu's big eyes.
"...I'll give you one as compensation." After a moment of hesitation, Xu Yue regained her composure, handed the linen cloth in her hand back to Zhou Yu, and said seriously.
"As for the reward you mentioned, forget it." Xu Yue waved her hand, "I'm afraid you can't even carry a knife with your small body, let alone kill the enemy. You don't meet the standards."
Hearing Xu Yue's words, Zhou Yu looked embarrassed, his lips moved, and he wanted to fight for it again. Xu Yue shook her head slightly and helped him up.
"Let's talk about it when we get up. Your gratitude has been felt by everyone. We will help you when there is injustice. We are just acting in accordance with the rules of the Xu Jiajun."
