No matter how hard life was in the past, there is now a sweet smile on my face.

Because he knew that he would no longer have to live in fear.

At the same time, in the main room, a wolf with green eyes was pouncing on a young and beautiful girl.

.........

Early the next morning, Chen Yan looked at his wife who was still asleep, kissed her gently on her fair and smooth forehead, and then quietly ran to the kitchen to heat up breakfast.

When he heard some noise in the guest room, he knew that Dafu had woken up. He took out Dafu and his own portion first, and kept his wife's portion in the pot to warm it with the remaining fire.

Then he went to the guest room with his and Dafu's breakfast, and just in time saw Dafu rubbing his eyes sleepily by the door.

"Why don't you sleep a little longer? Can't you sleep?"

"I usually have to get up early to work at this time at home. I am not used to getting up too late."

Chen Yan got up early because he had to go to Xiaoqiao Village to find Erzhuzi, but the child was in the growing period, and he didn't know what his family thought about having to get up so early every day.

Thinking about what he said about his stepmother kicking him off the car, he must have suffered a lot at home, otherwise his grandfather wouldn't have brought him with him every time he drove the car, for fear that he would be bullied if he wasn't careful.

"Hurry up and wash up, then come over for breakfast."

"okay!"

Da Fu ran to the toilet swiftly, but he paused as soon as he got there.

Water is so scarce nowadays, how can we use it for washing?

He thought about how much water he had wasted on wiping his body last night, and felt sad and regretful, so he immediately turned back.

Seeing him come back so quickly, Chen Yan asked casually, "You washed so quickly?"

Dafu was a little embarrassed, "Water is too precious nowadays, I can't bear to use it."

Chen Yan was really confused. He was used to using water at home and forgot to hide it in front of Dafu.

I tried so hard to save money last night, but I forgot about it when I woke up this morning...

He pretended to pat his forehead and said, "Oh, I've been on the road for so long that my brain isn't working very well. I forgot about it."

The child didn't understand the adults' thoughts and naively thought that Chen Yan had really forgotten about it. Then he happily sat on the stool and drank the brown rice porridge in the bowl with him.

A little salt was added to the porridge, so the taste was not strong, but it tasted exceptionally delicious.

Cui Yunzhu woke up after they finished eating. Knowing that Chen Yan got up so early just to go to Xiaoqiao Village, he went straight to the kitchen, took out his bowl of porridge, and drank it while leaning against the stove.

Then she quickly called him, "Husband, wait a minute, I'll go with you."

"Stay home."

Cui Yunzhu was so angry that she almost exploded! "

"I'm not a vase that will break if touched, why do you let me stay at home all the time?"

"Besides, I'm not stupid enough to act according to circumstances. If there's any danger on the road, I'll just hide and won't cause any trouble for you."

Seeing that his wife was on the verge of going berserk, Chen Yan immediately stopped talking and changed the subject, "It's my fault. My wife must go with me."

"Let's put Dafu with mom first."

"I can be at home by myself."

Dafu stood in front of the two holding an empty bowl, "I can cook for myself, and I can also help you guard the house."

"Uncle and aunt, don't worry."

This child is so sensible that it's hard to describe. Cui Yunzhu probably saw that Dafu was feeling uneasy. If she asked him to go to the Chen family's old house, he would probably become even more frightened and uneasy, so it was better to let him stay at home.

Before going out, she repeatedly reminded Dafu to lock the door and not let anyone in.

She was not afraid of the village’s security, but she was mainly afraid that some mad dogs would come out and bite people from time to time, like Wang or Wang Xiuchun.

Although they haven't been here for a long time, it's always better to be on guard.

.........

The two of them traveled for several hours and finally arrived at Xiaoqiao Village.

When I reached the entrance of the village, I found that there was no one on the village road. I guess they had all moved south like other villages.

At this time in the previous life, Yulin Village and Xiaoqiao Village had already become empty, and Zhou Shi on the road had to sell herself to Cui Xiang in exchange for food.

Cui Yunzhu's eyes were filled with disappointment. Chen Yan thought she was thinking of her parents, so he asked, "Don't be sad, wife. Do you want to go see them?"

"No, they left a long time ago. Besides, I'm not such a forgetful person. There's nothing to be sad about."

Just now she was just immersed in memories, feeling sorry for herself in her past life!

She no longer had any attachment to the Zhou couple in this life, and it would be better not to have such a family.

"Let's go find Erzhuzi as soon as possible. If we catch him and bring him back, we'll have one more strong man in the village."

Seeing her laughing, Chen Yan knew that his wife was not immersed in sorrow. He breathed a sigh of relief, held her hand and led her to Erzhuzi's house.

When I walked to the door, it was time for dinner. Erzhuzi's family eats quite early.

Chen Yan smelled the aroma of coarse grains and was a little surprised.

"What's wrong? Your eyes are about to pop out!"

Cui Yunzhu's words were a bit exaggerated, but Chen Yan's horrible look was indeed rare.

"The rice cooked by Erzhuzi is not so fragrant, so I was shocked when I smelled it. If you don't know, you might think there was a thief in his house!"

In the past, when they were hunting in the mountains, even if they got some meat, they couldn't cook it to such a good taste, let alone coarse grains. Could it be that their cooking skills have improved in the past few months?

"Whose cooking is so delicious?"

Chen Yan knocked on the gate curiously.

When the man in the house heard the noise outside, he immediately became alert, picked up the dagger and walked towards the door. Before he could open the bolt to ask questions, Chen Yan's rough voice came through the heavy door.

"Zhu Zi, open the door quickly. Your sister-in-law and I are here!"

"Brother Yan?"

When Erzhuzi heard the voice, he was so excited that he almost jumped off the roof. He unbolted the door and let the two people in.

He saw Cui Yunzhu and shouted a little embarrassedly, "Sister-in-law is here too, come in quickly, it's just right for you to have dinner with us, haven't you eaten yet?"

He said while blaming.

"Third brother, you are such a fool. Why do you have to come to my house when the world is so chaotic? I can't afford to die, so why worry about it?"

That being said, Erzhuzi couldn't suppress the raised corner of his mouth.

He was so excited that someone still remembered him even though he was all alone that he probably couldn't sleep for three days and three nights.

When he reached the kitchen door, he remembered something. Just as he was about to explain to the two of them, he saw them staring at the direction of the kitchen without moving.

The woman who came out was also stunned when she saw the stranger. The three of them just stood there staring at each other, and no one spoke first.

"Don't misunderstand me."
