Chapter 283 Cold-hearted Brother——Qin Da Niu 10
Chapter 283 Cold-hearted Brother——Qin Da Niu 10
"Why did you drive her away? If you drive her away, won't there be one less person to do the work at home?" After Chu Liucui left, Old Man Chu looked at his wife with dissatisfaction.
"She's already that old, aren't you afraid that she might get into trouble again if she goes out?"
"Then you didn't stop me when I beat and scolded her just now!" Listening to her old man's complaints, Mrs. Chu was unwilling to refute.
"She's a girl, she won't go anywhere. If you go out and look for her now, you might be able to find her."
"Okay, stop arguing. I'll go find her outside." The quarreling of his parents made Chu Tianquan, who had been in a bad mood these days, even more irritated. He interrupted the two of them from blaming each other and quickly walked out the door.
But there were no footprints outside, and Chu Tianquan didn't know which direction Chu Liucui left. He looked around the house and went back home.
Since they couldn't find the person and couldn't delay any longer, they loaded everything they could take away from home onto the donkey cart.
Chu Mingzhi had almost recovered after so many days of nursing, but he still got on the donkey cart without hesitation.
"Let's go! Let's follow them." Xihe pulled Chu Liucui, whose appearance had changed, and followed them quietly.
She also wanted to watch the fun! Only by following them could she enjoy it more, and she also wanted Chu Liucui to see how cruel Chu Mingzhi was.
Along the way, Mrs. Chu held the old hen in her arms, and whenever it laid eggs, she would ask Tian Ying to cook them for Chu Mingzhi.
Chu Mingzhi took it without any hesitation and put it into his mouth, not caring at all whether his other elders had eaten it or not.
Chu Mingzhi ate the egg in his hand, but he cursed Xihe thousands of times in his mind.
His hand healed, but a scar was left on his face. Without the best scar removal medicine, he would never be able to enter the court in his lifetime.
"Master, if you bring Chu Liucui with you to follow them, aren't you afraid that she will go to rescue her own parents?"
"It's human nature. If she wants to, let her go. I'm just bored and want to watch the fun." Xihe doesn't care about her at all. If he wants her to live a lifetime, he has plenty of ways to do it.
Feng Qi: That's right! You tied the two of them together just to watch the fun, just to let them meet as soon as possible.
"You're teasing me in your heart again." Xihe smiled gently, raised his hand and tapped Fengqi's head, then said with a smile: "Have you forgotten how long Chu Mingzhi was delayed because of his injury?"
"Yes, Master, if you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten."
"Learn more in the future."
"Okay." Feng Qi nodded and made a face at Xi He.
"Naughty."???
Xihe had other considerations when bringing Chu Liucui with her, because she observed from the sky that the drought would last for another two years.
Chu Liucui's marriage is also in the south. Whether she gets married or not is her business. Taking her with him is just a convenience.
Although Chu Mingzhi had troubled Chu Tianquan and his wife before, he was still their precious son.
Along the way, he tried to find ways to get food for Chu Mingzhi, fearing that Chu Mingzhi would lose weight.
They felt the sun was too hot that day, so they rested under the shade of a tree.
"Tian Ying, go find some fresh wild vegetables to make soup so that everyone can fill their stomachs." As soon as they stopped, Chu Tianquan assigned tasks to Tian Ying.
"Okay." Tian Quan didn't dare to refute and walked into the woods under the sun.
"I'll go unload the animals." Old man Chu was not idle either. He rubbed his old waist and walked towards the donkey cart at home.
"Then I'll go collect firewood."
Seeing that everyone else was busy and had no place to cook, Chu Tianquan went to find a place to dig a stove.
Seeing that everyone was busy, Chu Mingzhi sat under the tree without moving.
"He just watched? Watching them work?" Chu Liucui in the dark looked at Chu Mingzhi's leisurely look and felt very surprised.
"He was like this before, and he won't change now." Xihe was not surprised at all.
"I thought he would change now that we are on the road to escape famine?"
"You must know that it is difficult to change one's nature."
"Master, master, here they come, here they come, the person who killed you... bah... the person who killed the original owner is here, here they come..." Feng Qi was sitting on the tree and saw the person coming towards them. She excitedly called out to Xihe.
"I saw it, I saw it..." Xihe smiled and nodded, then pulled Chu Liucui closer to them to watch the fun.
Yao Mingqiao ran while looking back. She was really scared. If she hadn't run fast, she would have been treated as food by them like that girl just now!
"Ugh..." He couldn't think about it. His stomach would feel very uncomfortable the moment he thought about it. Yao Mingqiao quickly squatted on the ground and cleared his throat.
Seeing her expression, Xihe understood most of what was going on. She looked at Feng Qi in the tree and said, "Feng Qi, go kill those beasts."
If they can kill their own kind, then there is no need for them to live.
"Yes, master." Feng Qi responded and flew away.
A glance that lasted for a thousand years. Chu Mingzhi looked at the woman running towards him from afar, and his eyes could no longer see anyone else.
I don’t know if it was because Chu Mingzhi’s gaze was too hot, but Yao Mingqiao, who was running for his life in a panic, also saw him.
Even his tattered clothes could not hide his heroic spirit. Yao Mingqiao forgot about the horrific scene he had witnessed and walked towards Chu Mingzhi.
"Can I...can I rest here for a while?"
"Okay, okay, please sit down!" Hearing the gentle voice, the stunned Chu Mingzhi immediately came back to his senses and hurriedly gave her his cushion.
"Thank you." Yao Mingqiao thanked him and then began to introduce himself: "My name is Yao Mingqiao. What's your name?"
Facing Chu Mingzhi, Yao Mingqiao felt a lot more relaxed for some reason and wanted to say something to him.
"Ah?" Chu Mingzhi handed over the few fruits in the basin and replied with a smile: "Then we are so destined to be together. My name is Chu Mingzhi."
"Really? We are so destined to be together. Both of our names contain the word 'Ming'." A bright smile immediately appeared on Yao Ming's pretty face.
Seeing Yao Ming's pretty smile, Chu Mingzhi was stunned again.
Seeing his silly look, Yao Ming smiled even more happily.
Yao Mingqiao made a decision in her heart that she wanted to stay. She felt that the man in front of her would protect her.
"Brother Mingzhi, I'm all alone on this famine-stricken road. Can I stay?"
"Huh? You want to stay?"
"Well, I'm too scared to be alone, I want to be with you..."
"Okay, you stay! Just come with us, and I will protect you from now on." Chu Mingzhi patted his chest, and his face was no longer as cold as before.
"Thank you, Brother Mingzhi. You're so kind. I mean, will your family agree?"
