Xiao Zhang looked at Shen Yun who was screaming and being beaten, and pulled him aside in a funny way.
This person is so blind, even if it has something to do with him, how can he say that?
"The child kicked me yesterday, and he said there were two of them." Little Zhang talked about what happened last night, intending to distract everyone.
As expected, their attention was diverted, and they asked in surprise: "Two! Really?"
Mrs. Shen and others also gathered around, staring at little Zhang's belly in surprise.
But just for a moment, she worried again: "This woman has to go to hell to have a baby. The second son of the family suffered the crime of the boss when she was pregnant with Saburo and Shiro. What's more, now we are still running around outside all day long..."
Everyone understood what Old Mrs. Shen was saying. Shen Yun looked at Mr. Zhang nervously.
But Xiao Zhang herself smiled and comforted them: "Don't worry, although we have to run around outside for a while, you guys have taken good care of me, and everything will be fine."
Mrs. Song also quickly added: "What can you tell from Eucalyptus? There may not be two siblings in the belly. No matter what, it is right for us to take better care of them."
"Yes, what you said is right. Let's take care of it carefully. Even if there are two of us, we won't be afraid. Fortunately, Eucalyptus bought anti-fetal medicine in advance and prepared it." Old Mrs. Shen said.
Then he arranged for little Zhang to say: "In the future, when the sun is not shining so brightly, you can come out and follow me for a walk, otherwise you won't have the strength to give birth."
…
People who went around to look for Lin Popi came back intermittently, and they all said they couldn't find anyone.
Lin Popi had no relatives in the village, and he also had a bad relationship with everyone in the village. Not many of those who went out were looking for him.
It was just a show of walking a few hundred meters and then coming back.
"Yesterday, Lin Popi was unwilling to leave. Now that he's gone, he might have run back," someone said.
"Yeah, let's go quickly, otherwise the sun will get hot again soon."
Li Zheng listened to everyone's opinions and shouted: "Let's go!"
Shen Yuyu walked behind, remembering that when she woke up in the morning, her mother complained that there were too many mosquitoes, and when she looked at them again, they all had a few small patches of mosquito bites.
She used some thought to find mosquito repellent ointment from the space.
She gave a jar of ointment to each of her mother and grandmother.
She said mysteriously: "This is the ointment my grandpa gave me. It is used to repel mosquitoes. You can apply it on your body and give it to others."
Mrs. Shen took the smooth little jar and opened it to find emerald green paste inside.
"Oh, it smells really good. This must cost a lot of money." Old Mrs. Shen lowered her head and smelled it, and immediately refused to use it.
She said: "They all have rough skin and thick flesh, so there is no need for this. There is no one who doesn't get bitten by bugs in summer."
"Put it up quickly. When we find a place to live, this thing may be sold for a lot of money."
After saying that, he stuffed it into the baggage she was carrying.
Shen Yuyu stopped him quickly and said, "Grandpa might give me something sometime. Since he gave it, let us use it now."
"If we don't use it, what if he gets angry and thinks that we don't accept his kindness and won't give it to us in the future?"
Mrs. Shen was frightened and said in surprise: "Is it so serious?"
Shen Yuyu continued to lie: "That's not true. Otherwise, why didn't you give me this thing before? I can't say this again in the future."
She remembered that Mrs. Shen believed in gods and Buddhas the most, so she would definitely not dare to say such things again in the future.
If they are reluctant to use something every time I bring it out, I don’t know how troublesome it is to explain it, so I put an end to it at once and directly break through Mrs. Shen’s line first.
Old Mrs. Shen held the small jar that Shen Yuyu gave her in her hand. She felt distressed and confused, and finally made up her mind and said: "Use it, everyone can use it."
Then he quietly applied ointment on his body and passed it on to others.
The Shen family knew exactly where this thing came from, and it was not given to her by the old man who liked his eucalyptus, so they all happily used it.
Mrs. Song handed the jar to Ding Hehua, took her arm and said, "If you apply this ointment on your body, you won't be afraid of insect bites."
Ding Hehua opened it and pushed it back: "There is no need for this good thing, take it back quickly."
Mrs. Song argued with her some more before carefully taking the lotus flower and smearing it on her body.
After walking for more than half a day, when they were almost reaching the border of the county, everyone in Shenjia Village finally encountered another group of teams.
It is a team of less than a hundred people, all of them are gray-headed.
The leader was an old man who was over fifty years old. He looked a little more weathered than Shen Lizheng, but he looked kind-hearted.
When they saw the people from Shenjia Village appearing in their field of vision and the large and small bags they brought, their eyes lit up.
The luggage looked bulging, and there must be a lot of food.
Several middle-aged men standing behind the old man approached the old man and said, "Uncle, they seem to have a lot of food. When they come, let's... beg for some."
The middle-aged man said it was extremely difficult, and he obviously felt that this idea was not feasible.
Finally, he clenched his fist and said cruelly: "Maybe we can grab some of it, and at least let's get through our current life first."
"My grandson hasn't eaten for two days. If he doesn't have anything to eat, he won't last long."
The others looked at the old man expectantly, as if as long as he opened his mouth, they would have to wait until the people from Shenjia Village came over to muster up the energy to take action.
The old man shook his head when he saw that Shenjia Village had three times more people than them.
"Stand back and let others pass."
Those people looked unwilling, but no one refuted the old man's decision, so they had no choice but to move back.
However, when everyone in Shenjia Village approached, an old woman holding her grandson rushed to the front of the group.
"Give me some food. Please give me some food. My grandson has not eaten for two days. Please give me some food."
The old woman knelt down and cried in front of the Li Zheng family who were walking at the front.
Shen Lizheng's mother-in-law stared angrily and said, "We don't have any food to eat. How can we have any extra food for you? Get out of the way."
After saying that, he stepped forward and pushed the old woman kneeling on the ground aside.
The people in the team helped the old woman who almost fell.
Several daughters-in-law of Shen Lizheng's family tightly guarded the grain bags on the oxcart and stared at the old woman with wary eyes.
Everyone behind him also looked here and there, except for the old woman crying on the ground.
Even those who couldn't bear it were suppressed by others in the family.
In this current situation, when I don’t even have enough to eat, how can I have the kindness to help others?
The refugees behind the old woman stared at the team in Shenjia Village with eager eyes. They could only speed up their pace, trying to distance themselves from this group of refugees.
At the end of the line, Shen Yuyu saw the old woman still kneeling on the ground crying and the sallow-looking refugees behind her.
