Would several women, if they were officers and soldiers, come out with so many burdens to commit murder and robbery?"
Now that the words had been said, the man put down the hoe in his hand, looked at Qian Qian expressionlessly, then turned his gaze to Nan Meng's face, and said: "If I offended you just now, please
Don’t mind, brothers, there’s nothing we can do about it. Please just rest here!”
After saying that, he waved his hand behind him. Immediately, the doors and windows were opened with a roar, and many heads popped out from inside, all of them were women and children.
As soon as Qian Qian saw this scene, her nervous heart completely relaxed.
The man ordered: "Why are you hiding? Hurry up and prepare food and water!" Then he ordered a few people behind him to collect the horses.
Nan Meng walked to Qian Qian, hugged her and got off the horse. Feeling that her body was still shivering, she couldn't help but asked with concern: "Are you okay?"
Qian Qian shook her head weakly and said, "I just want to drink some water."
The villagers settled Qian Qian and his party in an abandoned ancestral hall. There was a lot of dust on the beams, but fortunately the place was big enough and they could barely fit in.
The women quickly brought over water and food. They said the food was just thick flour buns with a little salt and chili.
This has satisfied this group of panicked people.
They all ate happily with smiles on their faces, while several children were still fighting over each other to stuff more steamed buns into their mouths and into their torn pockets.
Nan Meng was holding a bamboo cup in his hand, filled with cool water. He walked to Qian Qian and sat down, handing the cup to Qian Qian.
With a slight smile, he looked at the satisfied smiles of the children after getting the food, and the pain in his heart was slightly relieved. Looking at Nanmeng's chapped lips, he pushed the water glass and said softly: "You
Drink first!"
Nanmeng smiled, took Qian Qian's hand away, put the water glass to her mouth, and drank it without any reason. Qian Qian was worried about spilling it on the ground and wasted it, so she hurriedly closed her eyes and raised her head to drink.
He almost choked, coughed twice, and his eyes were forced to turn red. After he recovered, he smiled and said, "What are you doing! What if the water spills?"
Nan Meng just looked at her with a smile and said nothing.
Qian Qian felt a little embarrassed, lowered her head quickly, then raised it and looked over again, "So, have you drank water?"
Nan Meng seemed not to have heard anything. After a while, he blinked his smiling eyes, stood up, and said, "I'll go get another drink."
Qian Qian glanced at these refugees again, feeling melancholy in her heart, wondering how to resettle them, and where should she go?
Looking around, he saw a black shadow outside the dilapidated window, and a pair of resolute and handsome eyes staring at everything inside. Qian Qian instinctively jumped up and shouted: "Who is it?"
This call immediately caught Nanmeng's attention. He quickly turned around and saw that the shadow outside the window was leaving in a hurry, leaving only the swaying branches to prove that someone had been there.
