Chapter 5 Are you lying to us?
When Shen Yunxi heard these words, he was speechless about the character of the original owner.
Although the original owner was a stepmother, and although these children were brought home by her husband during the war, they could not be sold secretly!
But her husband was away at war all year round, and the family was separated from her parents-in-law, so no one could care about her.
Shen Yunxi paused for a moment and then said solemnly, "Just now when Jinghu and Jingbao were trying to snatch Erniu and Xiuli away, you protected them. I saw it all. You are all kind and righteous." Good boy! What I did in the past was all wrong, but if I don’t protect you on this deserted road to escape, then I’m not a human being."
Tian Xiuli still didn't believe it and asked, "Aren't you deceiving us?"
Shen Yunxi felt bitter, but then she said, "You are all your father's treasures. If I sell all his treasures, he will definitely beat me to death. I have to think about my own fate, right?" "
When Tian Daniu and Tian Xiuli heard this, they understood. Their father indeed loved them very much. He had once taught his stepmother a lesson because Xiuzhu was too thin.
"Yes, it's good that you understand. If you treat us badly, we won't complain to our father!" Tian Daniu pretended to be calm and frightened Shen Yunxi.
Tian Xiuli tugged on Tian Daniu's sleeve, feeling that her elder brother was a bit stupid, "Okay, please stop saying a few words. We can't remind her. We have to wait until dad comes back and file a complaint directly!"
Erniu and Xiuzhu had already fallen asleep on their brothers and sisters' backs, and were unable to express their opinions.
Shen Yunxi nodded and urged, "Well, now that we have made it clear, let's hurry up and catch up with the large army. It will be safe!"
Shen Yunxi walked in front with his baggage on his back, ignoring Tian Daniu and Tian Xiuli's muttering behind them, and must catch up with the large army in the village before dark.
After leaving the woods, we got on the road again and walked quickly for a while.
"village head!"
Tian Daniu shouted in surprise.
If they had stayed with the villagers, their food and bullock carts would not have been taken away.
Chief Tian is in his forties and is the son of the village patriarch.
When he saw Shen Yunxi chasing after him with several children, he also looked happy and breathed a long sigh of relief.
Nearly a thousand people in the village fled the famine all the way, and there were even people who fell ill along the way, and hundreds of people were missing.
Chief Tamura's mood became increasingly uncomfortable.
In particular, before his distant nephew Tian Youqing went to the north to fight, he asked the village chief to look after his children more.
But when they encountered a flood and had to flee, Chief Tian couldn't take care of him, and Shen Yunxi was also a vicious stepmother.
Moreover, Shen Yunxi had a hot temper and would not listen to anyone's advice. Even what he, the village chief, said, Shen Yunxi ignored.
Shen Yunxi was not happy when the village chief said a few more words, so he talked back to the village chief, so he simply stopped making himself unhappy.
Not long after, Shen Yunxi's family got separated from the village chief and others.
"Daniu, where is the oxcart? Didn't you drive the oxcart when you came out?" the village chief asked quickly. He saw two older children carrying two younger ones, and Shen Yunxi was covered with luggage.
Moreover, several people looked injured and their clothes were in tatters, which made the village chief worried.
When Tian Daniu heard the village chief ask this question, he cast a resentful look at Shen Yunxi in the next second, "It's all her fault. We were scattered by the flood. She didn't mention catching up with everyone, but she led us to the woods. We walked on a small road, but the result was great, even the oxcarts and grain were all robbed."
"Ah... you brothers and sisters are not big enough. Aren't you tired and ruined if you carry your younger brothers and sisters on your back? Quickly, put them on the bullock cart. Let's go faster." Chief Tam also felt sorry for the children.
Carrying a small one on his back, he probably wouldn't be able to go very far before he died of exhaustion and hunger.
Following them, although the food was getting less and less, the cows could eat grass and carry the children's food and luggage, so everyone was taken care of.
