As he said that, he broke open the multigrain cake that he was reluctant to eat and stuffed half of it into each person.

Before the two women could say anything, Meng Shaode stood up and called his eldest brother to go out.

Ah Jiu hadn't finished finishing what she had in hand, and there was another piece. Her father had really changed his temper, and he actually felt sorry for the two of them.

If it had been in the past, this father would never come home unless he spent all his food and money. How could he have considered the life and death of the two of them?

its not right.

Ah Jiu then thought about it and quickly looked at his hands.

His calloused hands were as thin as chicken paws, and he was looking at the aunt and two cousins ​​across from him.

She could even see clearly how the corners of her clothes were wrinkled.

Ah Jiu was so frightened that she dropped the cake in her hand and looked out of the cave with some unwillingness. As soon as her uncle and father came out of the cave, they each had a sickle in their hands.

"There used to be a wild boar on the mountain behind this. I caught it several times but failed to catch it. I wonder if I can catch it today."

"Even if we meet, what use can our sickles do?"

"It's enough to satisfy your craving with just a few glances." Meng Shaode answered awkwardly.

The two brothers exchanged words with each other, and the previous hatred was gone.

But Ah Jiu could see the rust on the sickle as clearly as daylight.

"Ajiu, lie down in mother's arms and sleep for a while. I don't know what will happen tomorrow."

The mother next to her patted Ah Jiu's arm and motioned for her to lie down.

But in her mind, she was thinking about the delicacies from her past life. If she could reach Nanming City safely, she would sell her blood to make Ah Jiu fat.

Ah Jiu couldn't sleep. After a while, her mother started snoring.

The arms hugging him also dropped.

The moonlight outside the cave slanted in. Ah Jiu looked at the white moonlight and just closed his eyes.

"Damn girl, your family has sold you to me, where do you want to run?"

Ah Jiu sat up suddenly. The air was still and only the smell of animal feces was in her breath. It turned out that she had a nightmare.

The moonlight outside was facing the cave entrance, and a figure suddenly flashed past the cave entrance.

Ah Jiu was so frightened that he suddenly covered his mouth. It couldn't be the refugee army. It was extremely dark inside the cave, and it seemed that he was not noticed by that person.

Before the idea came to fruition, the figure stretched out its head instead, and Ah Jiu quickly poked her mother a few times.

"Mom, mother?" Ah Jiu shrank her little hand, why did her mother seem to be dead while sleeping.

At this moment, Ah Jiu suddenly discovered that the half of his head that was peering into the hole was gone again.

After a long time, as if the air was half frozen, Ah Jiu stood up carefully and moved to the entrance of the cave to take a look.

A voice drifted down the wind from afar.

"The people in Xinghua Village must have leaked military information among the people who escaped. Since they were not caught, they must be hiding in Qiming Mountain. Let me search them."

Ah Jiu was so frightened that he staggered and collapsed on the ground. He looked at the torches in the jungle at the foot of the mountain in the distance, like scattered fireflies, swaying in separate directions towards the mountain.

Ah Jiu hurriedly turned around and rushed back into the cave to wake up her mother and uncle. She had to run quickly.

A round figure was shivering towards the cave. In an instant, the two of them bumped into each other, and Ah Jiu hurriedly took a few steps back.

"Who?" they both said almost in unison.

But when Ah Jiu looked closely at the man holding his heart, he could clearly see the big beads of sweat on his face.

Isn't this person the housekeeper Hong from Li's wife's family?

How could Ah Jiu dare to gasp for air? After all, the Li family had sent someone to catch up.

"Which village are you from? Say." Butler Hong took a few steps forward and saw Ah Jiu's appearance clearly:

"Hey, you cheap girl, it's you. How the hell did I go to find you?"
