At dawn, the three of them walked together behind the people in Xiaohe Village.

It was rare to see green and no water source along the way. After walking like this for who knows how long, Chen Yu felt that the soles of her feet had blistered and she was thirsty and hungry.

The sun was so bright in the sky that Zheng Xiang filled her up when she was about to faint.

"Ozawa, come down and let your sister sit down for a while."

Wei Zehan glanced at Chen Yu who was about to faint and reluctantly got off the donkey.

Saved, Chen Yu sat on the donkey and licked his dry lips and said

"How long will dad be gone?"

Zheng Xiang looked at the sky and said

"It's still early. It's only noon and we can rest by the time Shen Shi arrives."

Chen Yu felt a little dizzy, did he still have to walk for so long? She took a cucumber from the vegetable shop yesterday while everyone was asleep, thinking of adding it to her meal during the day.

There was a commotion in the crowd. Zheng Xiang stopped the person walking in front of him and asked

"What happened to this big brother?"

Niu Er had never met Zheng Xiang. When did this man come to their village? He couldn't have wanted to rob him.

"Third uncle, is there anyone you haven't seen following us?"

Niu Tieshi heard Niu Er's shout and came to Zheng Xiang. Looking at the other person's look, he felt that he looked familiar.

"Brother Tieshi, if you don't remember me, it's me, Zheng Xiang, Zheng Sangen's youngest son, Zheng Xiang."

Didn't Zheng Sangen and Niu Tieshi remember that their family had left Xiaohe Village more than ten years ago to join the government? How would it appear here.

"Zheng Xiang, why are you back?"

Zheng Xiang looked like an elegant scholar, and his body looked very thin. At this time, he looked sad and said to Niu Tieshi.

"Brother Tieshi, I have no choice. I am the only one left in the Zheng family, my daughter and my eldest brother's son. Before I entered the village, I saw the village heading this way.

I couldn't walk fast with my two children and just caught up with the team. "

Niu Tieshi looked at Chen Yu who was sitting on the donkey, and Wei Zehan who was beside him patted Zheng Xiang on the shoulder. He didn't ask why there were only so few people in the Zheng family. It would be good to leave a queen for the family in this world. , so he comforted him by saying

"It's not easy." Then the conversation changed.

"Xiao Xiang, it's not that Brother Tieshi doesn't believe you. Your family has been away for more than ten years. Many people in the village have never seen you. I don't know if you, Lu Yin, are here."

How could Zheng Xiang not be prepared to take out the prepared road guide?

"Brother Tieshi, look, this is it. I understand that I won't make it difficult for Brother Tieshi. Just let us follow the team. When we find a place to live, we will leave immediately."

Seeing that he was so sensible, Niu Tieshi agreed with his statement and continued:

"Someone found a water source in the woods. You can go get some water if you need it."

Zheng Xiang rejected his kindness and returned to Chen Yu and the others.

At this time, the fleeing team had stopped, and most of the people went to get water.

"Dad, do we really not have to go get water?"

Chen Yu licked his dry lips and said in a hoarse voice.

Zheng Xiang handed the water bag to Chen Yu

"If you don't go, who will take care of you if I go?"

Chen Yu took the water bag and took a sip, then handed the water bag to Zheng Xiang.

Zheng Xiang glanced at Chen Yu in surprise. The child could bear it. What he didn't know was that Chen Yu couldn't bear it. She was afraid of letting go.

Thinking this way, Chen Yu took this moment to open the luggage that the woman left for her yesterday. Inside, there was only a set of fully patched clothes, a mouthful of corn tortillas and a copper plate.

I'm afraid she saved this bite of corn tortilla from her own mouth, and I don't know how long the woman kept these copper coins.

Wei Zehan saw the corn cakes and the copper plate approaching Chen Yu and said

"Aren't you so moved that you cried? One bite of the corn tortilla will make you forget who forgot you."

If it weren't for him, Chen Yu wouldn't have realized that she was crying. After listening to his words, Chen Yu explained

"My stepmother has no choice. If she doesn't sell me, my father will sell me to a brothel."

Stepmother, has she also lost her biological mother? So is she a motherless child like herself?

Wei Zehan awkwardly wiped Chen Yu's tears with his sleeve and said

"Stop crying. There wasn't much water to drink, and you shed it as tears."

Wei Zehan obviously wanted to comfort people, but he succeeded in irritating Chen Yu.

Chen Yu pushed him away and wiped away his tears.
