Ah Jiu felt like she was being stabbed like a hedgehog, and subconsciously took two steps back to let her parents out.

It was Cai Lihua who broke the silence, even though everyone looked unfamiliar: "Hey, everyone is here. When will we set off?"

Wang and her eldest son looked at each other differently and reacted instantly:

"Shaode, you..."

Gritting his teeth, he stepped forward and pulled him aside, lowering his voice and saying, "Are you confused? Did you take what mother said as farts? Ah?"

Ah Jiu knew that the big family didn't like the two of them. In the past, his father was very filial and dedicated to his brothers and grandma.

It's not like they won't be welcomed, the two of them have always been like outsiders.

Mother's words were ignored at all. The uncle rolled up his sleeves and snorted coldly and turned away with his next words: "Young Master, I think it's better to take off your head and feed it to the dogs."

"Shaokang, please stop saying a few words. Mom is here, where can we talk?"

The eldest uncle, Luo Xiuying, tugged on her man's sleeves obediently, so as not to offend the old lady and not give him any food on the way.

Even the eldest brother Meng Nanxing, who had been separated for a long time, also muttered:

"Mom, why did you bring her here? Wouldn't it be a drag to follow a cheap girl on the road? If the Li family catches up, our Meng family will be in big trouble."

She threw up her sleeves and went out to pack the oxcart. Ah Jiu was surprised to find that her young sister-in-law and niece, whom she had never spoken to before, were not here.

Meng Shaokang glared at his mother-in-law, and glared at the thin mother-in-law until her head shrank, her face turned pale with fright, and she did not dare to say another word.

In this era, women had no family status, and Ah Jiu was used to it. Only her mother suddenly changed her appearance and dared to speak loudly at home.

Cai Lihua was completely confused at this moment, with ten thousand questions running through her head. Who is this person? Call her mother? Why didn't she know she had such an old son?

When he looked at Meng Shaode and wanted to ask, the man didn't know what he heard. He immediately picked up the pole angrily and said:

"My wife is my own, Meng Shaode's, and my daughter is my own. In this time of war and chaos, do I still have the time to be angry with my family? If you like to quarrel, go ahead. I won't accompany you."

Saying hello: "Lihua, Ah Jiu, let's go."

As he said this, he picked up the pole and headed out the door. The mother-in-law was dumbfounded. It was the first time she saw that the second brother was so protective of his wife.

If her husband could say a word for her, she wouldn't be afraid to say anything in front of her mother-in-law.

Ah Jiu's heart sank. In recent years, taxes have increased and the harvest has been very small due to drought. Every year, grain is collected and given to Ah Nai for distribution.

Now, if they don't unite as a family to escape famine, the three of them will not starve to death on the road.

"Grandma." Ah Jiu stood on the threshold and turned to look at Mrs. Wang. There was an aura of stability on her face that was rare for her age, and she said confidently:

"You may not know the seriousness of the matter. In less than three days, the ancient well in Majiazhuang will be occupied by refugee militiamen. The soldiers of King Chujiang in the city are being dispatched. Before they are dispatched here, strong men will be taken to the battlefield everywhere.

Sai, you should know very well whether things at home or outside are more important."

Cai Lihua looked at the man in shock. Her daughter was not only sensible, but also knowledgeable. What she said was better than his father who was teaching.

"Shaode, I think Ah Jiu is right." Cai Lihua whispered.

Meng Shaode was so angry that he put down the bucket.

The Wang family in the courtyard was quite shocked, but not as shocked as the eldest son Meng Shaokang.

This girl has never even been out of the village, how can she know better than him, a man working at the dock?

"Okay, I'm the eldest in the family, so this matter has been settled. It's better to leave first, and wait until we have time to settle down in Nanling."

Mrs. Wang didn't react at all. Now she was slapping her thighs and jumping up high. She gritted her teeth and pointed at Jiu'er's mother-in-law's fingers and tapped them vigorously:

"Let's walk together, and I'll be the first to say the ugly things. You two bastards have nothing to eat. You can't even think about my old lady's little food."
