Chapter 43: The people of Shenjia Village follow closely
The Shen family really couldn't figure out what Shen Lizheng and the others were planning.
However, if they stick to me like this, if they have any ideas, they will definitely reveal their flaws.
Then the soldiers will come to block it, and the water and soil will cover it up.
But they didn't have that much time to listen to his nonsense. They wanted to travel a little longer without taking a break.
Mrs. Shen's face darkened and she pulled Mr. Shen aside.
"We don't rest. If nothing happens, we'll be on our way."
After saying this, without looking at Shen Lizheng's livid face, he pulled Mr. Shen back into the team and let everyone go on.
After walking a certain distance and thinking that the people behind them could no longer hear them, the group of people started to mumble.
Wu Lang and Xiao Liu Lang walked beside Shen Yu Yu. Now they admired Shen Yu Yu, and they would ask some strange questions from time to time.
But most of them were about fighting, and also asking if there was anything strange in Shen Yuyu’s ‘little treasure box’.
Korokuro raised his head and asked curiously as he walked: "Sister, didn't Grandpa Rizheng remember to kick us out? Why were you talking to me just now? I didn't want to pay attention to him and he kept talking."
Shen Yuyu lowered his head and said mysteriously: "Maybe he has some bad ideas, Xiao Liu, don't be deceived by him."
Xiaoliu Lang also imitated Shen Yuxi and whispered: "Sister, don't worry, Xiaoliu is smart."
The others were amused by the two siblings, and the unhappy atmosphere just caused by Shen Lizheng also faded away.
Because Shen Yun was injured in his arm, he was not allowed to drive the bullock cart or push the cart.
He walked behind and said, "But that's right. Li Zheng has already kicked us out. With his face-saving temperament, how could he be so shameless that he takes the initiative to talk to us?"
When Mrs. Shen heard this, she rolled her eyes at him and looked at him like a fool.
"What else could be the reason? If he doesn't have an idea for our family, I don't believe he is so enthusiastic."
Others nodded in agreement and felt that this was the fact.
But when I turned around and looked around, I saw that the people from Shenjia Village were still following closely behind.
Shen Yuyu frowned. Just now, Shen Lizheng asked Grandpa if he wanted to stop and rest. That should be the time for them to rest.
But the team didn't rest, and no one in the team was heard making any noise.
If they couldn't figure it out, they stopped thinking about it. They just walked at a normal speed and didn't care about the people behind them.
At this time, the team in Shenjiacun was also talking in low voices.
However, their conversation was obviously not that friendly.
Everyone was watching when Li Zheng came up to talk to him just now. He originally thought he could stop and rest together, and took advantage of the opportunity to force the Shen family to share the food with everyone.
As a result, the Shen family members were so shameless that they left directly.
So everyone had no choice but to continue walking bitterly, placing two mouthfuls of dry food on the road and not daring to stop even though they could hardly lift their feet.
Mrs. Wu rolled her eyes and thought she had a good idea. She walked quickly two steps to Shen Lizheng and told her her idea.
"Erdan, why don't you go directly to them and tell them to return to the team? They will be so grateful that they will give us the food."
Mrs. Wu was very proud. She felt that she had come up with a good idea, and she would have to give her more when the food was distributed.
Thinking like this, she expressed her thoughts when she was happy.
"I have a good idea for you. When you get the food, you will have to give more to my family."
Shen Lizheng became angry when he saw her talking. I don't know how many things happened to Mrs. Wu in the team these two days.
Whenever something happened, he would use his name and say that he would kick people out of the team, which made everyone complain and have a bad opinion of him.
He also warned her, but this person was shameless and nothing he said was of any use.
So when Shen Lizheng saw her now, he just stayed away.
But Shen Lizheng's mother-in-law was unwilling after hearing what Mrs. Wu said.
If her man asked for food from Shen Xiucai's family, it would be her family's credit, so why should she give them more food?
The two of them said they didn't feel right in a few words, and started arguing over and over again.
"Shut up!"
Shen Li was so noisy that his ears hurt, so he turned his head and glared at them.
His eyes were not really friendly, and the two of them did not dare to argue anymore, and just followed him honestly.
But even though the two of them didn't say anything, they couldn't stop others from discussing it.
Some people felt that asking for food was still unreliable, and said, "No matter where the food comes from, it is in the hands of Shen Xiucai's family. Can they give it to us if we ask for it?"
"And you have forgotten that when someone went to ask for food, that girl just took a knife and put it on his neck, which scared him to death."
Everyone was not sure. It had been so long, and if no one mentioned it, they would have forgotten about it.
At this time, Mrs. Ma pulled Lin Chunyan and squeezed over, and happened to hear everyone talking about this.
When she heard this, did she not dare to ask for food?
That wouldn't work, her family had not confiscated grain in the first place, and the Shen family didn't sell it to them when they sold it.
Although the two hundred kilograms he asked for from Wang Zhicai was much more than others in the village, it seemed like he had no idea how to escape from the famine, so this little food was not enough.
She said, "Why won't you give it? Shen Xiucai's family is the most benevolent and righteous family. Seeing that we all have no food to eat, we must be soft-hearted."
"If we continue to obey, the food will become ours."
Lin Chunyan also said at the side: "What my mother said is, aunts, think about it, the Shen family sold that grain to you back then, and we walked for so many days before we left the boundaries of our county. If we yearn to go east, I don’t know how many more days it will take, but how can I deal with it if I don’t have any food?”
Lin Chunyan talked a lot and looked at the faces of the women becoming more and more solemn, feeling secretly happy.
She continued: "Aunts, don't think about anything else. There are more than two hundred of us, so I'm afraid they won't dare to do anything again."
"Besides, if they can't finish the food, it will be a burden to carry it with them. Giving us the food can be considered as relieving their burden."
The more everyone listened, the more they felt that this was what happened. They soon shook their minds and were convinced by Lin Chunyan's sweet words.
Now I no longer feel tired from walking continuously, but instead feel full of energy, as if the person in front of me is waving to them.
Several women smiled like flowers and praised Lin Chunyan as they walked: "Oh, you are still an open-minded girl. If anyone dares to speak against you in the future, my aunt will have to disagree with him."
Lin Chunyan smiled shyly, but her heart was filled with joy.
Huh, even if she leaves the team, she won't let Shen Yuyu and the others have an easy time.
She will definitely make them pay for ruining her reputation!
