"I understand." Yao Xiaoqing thought about it and warned him again, "Uncle Chun, if there is something wrong in the tribe, please remember to tell me or my father and Uncle Dashi. If bad guys sneak in, we will
Trouble."
Ah Chun nodded repeatedly, "Don't worry, Ah Chong and I are watching! We can't spare anyone who dares to do bad things."
"Yes, that's how it should be!" Yao Xiaoqing gave him a thumbs up, "Uncle Chun, you are all good. The stability of the tribe cannot be separated from your maintenance."
After listening to Ah Chun's words, Yao Xiaoqing returned to the cafeteria to find Yun Amu, called her out and asked: "Amu, the woman named Meihua in the tribe, which tribe did she come from? In which courtyard does she live?"
Yun Amu thought for a moment, "Meihua was brought back by the leader from the Qiushan Great Fair. She turned out to be from the Shanyin tribe and lives in the third row of yards. What happened?"
Yao Xiaoqing told her what A Chunbo said, "Let's take a look first."
Yun Amu followed Yao Xiaoqing and walked to the third row of the yard. After thinking about it, she said: "When I saw her today, I felt something was wrong with her. She used to smile when she saw people. She even rushed to help in the cafeteria. She has been hanging her head since the morning.
, no energy at all. I thought she was uncomfortable somewhere!"
Yao Xiaoqing listened silently, and the two of them soon arrived at the yard where Mei Hua lived. Yun Amu pushed open the first room in the west wing and saw that it was neatly tidied.
Yao Xiaoqing and Yun Amu rummaged around and found that there was nothing that shouldn't be in the Plum Blossom House, including tribal-haired clothes, pants, shoes and socks.
Yun Amu said: "Xiao Qing, Dashu Amu is taking them to dig potatoes in the field. Do you think you should call her to ask?"
Yao Xiaoqing thought for a moment and asked, "What did they do yesterday?"
“Yesterday I helped Shan Ammu peel kudzu!”
Yao Xiaoqing shook his head, "If you don't call her here yet, I'll have people keep an eye on her."
When they were replaced, there were no iron weapons in the tribe.
The Shanyin tribe is just a small tribe, and they shouldn't have the ambition to send people to hide in other tribes.
The two came out of the yard. Yao Xiaoqing went to the refining room and told Yao Hu about Mei Hua and her guess.
Yao Hu thought for a moment and said, "Let the gatekeeper watch her. As long as she goes out alone, let others follow her."
"I know." After Yao Xiaoqing agreed, he went to the small gate at the foot of the mountain and told the gatekeeper to keep an eye on Mei Hua. If he found her going out, he would have someone follow her.
Dashu Amu and about a dozen women were busy in the yam field. Some of them hit the yam vines with hoe handles, and some slapped the yam beans on the yam vines with their hands. The brown yam beans fell all over the field.
land.
Several women carried bamboo baskets to pick up the yam beans that had fallen into the furrows, and several women took sickles to cut off the vines from which the yam beans had been collected.
Some people also used shovels to shovel away the soil on the ridges of the fields, and dug down along the potato vines that were exposed on the ground, revealing the potatoes as thick as their arms.
The woman holding the yams in her arms smiled happily and said, "Look, Amu, the yams we grow ourselves are much fatter than the ones we go out to collect."
"Can you not get fat? I put a lot of fertilizer on it when I planted it last year, and I even chased it twice this year." Dashu Amu cheerfully picked up a yam and put it into the bamboo basket with openings on both sides.
Suddenly there was a cry of pain. Dashu Amu looked at the round-faced and flat-nosed woman covering her fingers, frowned and said, "Meihua, did you cut your hand again?"
Meihua nodded, "Yeah!"
"What's wrong with you? This is the second time you've cut your hand," Dashu Amu looked at the blood dripping from her fingers and waved, "Look at your bloody hands, go pick some elderberries and pound them
Apply it."
"Oh! Thank you Eminem!"
Mei Hua held her bleeding fingers and walked towards the mountain in a daze.
All she could think about was the scene when she met her sister by the river in the morning. Her eye sockets were sunken, and her whole body was like a dry stick, dark and scary.
If she hadn't heard her talk about what happened in the tribe before, she would never have recognized that it was her elder sister.
Sister A asked her to beg the leader to take them in. Will the leader agree?
When walking through the gate, she suddenly saw Yao Xiaoqing walking in front. Meihua summoned up the courage to shout: "Qingsha..."
Yao Xiaoqing looked back at her and saw the blood on her hand, "It's a cut! Follow me back to clean the wound and apply some medicine." She turned and walked towards the medical room.
"Yes!" Mei Hua followed Yao Xiaoqing, lowered her head and bit her lip, hesitated for a while, took two quick steps and whispered, "Qing Wu, I, I..."
"Does your hand hurt?"
Yao Xiaoqing looked back at her anxious look, and suddenly thought of the woman A Chunbo was talking about. Could she be Mei Hua?
"what's your name?"
"My name is Mei Hua," she said looking at Yao Xiaoqing and said, "Qing Wu, I want to ask you to help my sister."
Yao Xiaoqing looked at her nervous look, smiled slightly and said: "You come in first, I will help you apply the medicine, and then you tell me."
"Yes!" Mei Hua followed Yao Xiaoqing into the medical room.
Yao Xiaoqing saw two cuts on her hands, and there were grass clippings on the wounds. After applying hemostatic medicine, she looked at Mei Hua and asked, "How did your sister find you? Where is she now?"
Mei Hua looked at Yao Xiaoqing uneasily, "This morning, when Amu took us to cut cattle grass, I met her by the river. The tribe that Auntie moved to before was occupied by giant bears, and they were also attacked by giant bears.
People brought giant bears with them."
"A few days ago, the giant bears were besieged by Da Wu and Wu Xian. They took their children and followed the women from the Yaoshan tribe and fled to another Yaoshan tribe. For some reason, they fled to the cave where Douzi lived before. Qing Wu, please
Please give them some food."
Yao Xiaoqing lowered his eyes. Although Huoli had already cut off his hamstrings, there were still Black Badger and the others. A group of women fled to Yaoshan. Why did they let them go? They also happened to meet the sisters who had moved to Yaoshan.
Is there really such a coincidence? She decided to go and find out first.
"You can stay in the tribe with peace of mind. I'll take someone to check it out."
Meihua remembered the tribe's rules and confessed: "Qingsha, today I gave my breakfast pancake to my sister. I didn't do anything to disgrace the tribe!"
Yao Xiaoqing smiled and nodded, "You're very good. If you have anything to do, come to me. Your sister will make arrangements when I find out."
After hearing this, Mei Hua felt relieved and gratefully saluted Yao Xiaoqing, "Thank you Qing Wu!"
Yao Xiaoqing nodded, "The wound on your hand is a bit deep. Remember not to get wet in the past two days."
"Hey! I'm going to help pick the yam beans." Mei Hua happily ran towards the yam field.
Yao Xiaoqing looked at her brisk footsteps and walked towards the refining room with a smile.
Returning to the refining room, Yao Xiaoqing told Yao Hu what Mei Hua had said, and then asked: "Father, how many women were robbed by giant bears in the Yaoshan tribe?"
