Xie Qin's face changed immediately, and he opened his mouth to refute, but was kicked to the ground by Xie Hong.

"Xie Qin, in the past, we were both members of the Xie family, so I covered up for you no matter how you two quarreled. But now you have done something so shameful. How can you afford to offend Young Master Song? Now, for your own selfish reasons, you have ruined Wenhui's reputation. How do you want her to live with herself in the future?"

Xie Hong was filled with anger, looking at his brother who always caused trouble, and finally sighed heavily: "Since you still don't repent, if you get into trouble again in the future, you have to solve it yourself. I'm going to make this clear today. The Xie family will no longer clean up for you for what you do in the future. I don't care what happens to you. An'er, let's go back, you are such a disgrace."

"Brother, brother, don't go. Brother, I was wrong. Please don't ignore me," Xie Qin looked at Xie Hong walking further and further away with despair in his heart.

Xie An followed behind Xie Hong and was indifferent to Xie Qin's pleas. Thinking of what Xie Hong had just said, he felt relieved.

Finally, I don't have to clean up their mess anymore. I just hope that my father can keep his word and not start acting like a housekeeper and meddling in everything when something goes wrong.

Song Shiwei heard everything the Xie family said in the tent clearly. Although he didn't care about their family's affairs, Song Shiwei didn't want to be stabbed by others. That would be too troublesome.

The tent curtain had always been tied up, but tonight was a surprise. Song Shiwei was not ready to sleep yet and was lying down thinking about something, so he did not hear the sound outside. He was going to get some fresh air before closing the curtain, but he didn't expect someone to pay attention to him.

No longer in the mood to sleep, Song Shiwei tied the door curtain and then went into the space to prepare some midnight snack.

The people from the third branch of the Xie family were still outside. Xie Qin helped his wife Lin Zhen and daughter Xie Wenhui up and yelled at them: "What kind of shit have you done? It's fine that you schemed against someone, but now you've been beaten back. How can Hui'er find a good family in the future? Big brother just said that he won't care about us anymore. Don't do such things again, or I can't protect you."

Xie Qin left with a flick of his sleeves, and before leaving he added, "Also, don't forget that we are exiles now, don't think of yourself as the master of the general's mansion anymore."

After Xie Qin left, Lin Zhen hugged Xie Wenhui and cried silently. After a long while, she suddenly pushed Xie Wenhui away and said, "I have taught you for so many years, but you can't even do such a small thing. Now that you didn't get the Song guy to recognize you, your reputation is ruined. Cry, cry, cry, you still have the nerve to cry."

Looking at the strange mother, Xie Wenhui felt as if someone had grabbed her chest, with disbelief on her face: "Mother, didn't your daughter do all these things just because you told her to? Now that the incident has happened and your daughter has no way to defend herself, do you still want to stab your daughter?"

Lin Zhen felt uncomfortable after hearing what Xie Wenhui said, and she felt that the current situation was very troublesome, so she waved her hand impatiently: "Go back first, and think of a way later, otherwise how can you find a good family when you really get to the north."

Tears flashed in Xie Wenhui's eyes. She followed Lin Zhen closely with a handkerchief clenched in both hands. When she left this place, she looked back at Song Shiwei's tent.

Nowadays, when traveling in the mountains, there is no need to set out at dawn. Everyone knows that it is very easy to encounter wild animals in the deep mountains before dawn, and the mountain roads are rugged and steep. If you travel in the dark, accidents are likely to occur. There are many people in the group, and even if you encounter wild animals during the day, they will only be a snack, but at night their vision will be affected.

Therefore, Huang Changyuan decided to set out again at the beginning of the Chen period. On the one hand, they could take advantage of the underground river here so that everyone could rest more. On the other hand, they would not have to worry about walking in the mountains under the sun, so it would be fine to set off later in the day.

Song Shiwei woke up at the beginning of the morning, washed up in the space before leaving the tent. Zhang Wu had already prepared breakfast and was waiting for Song Shiwei to get up.

"Master, the village chief said we should set off again at 7:00 p.m. I cooked some porridge and fried some pickled meat with some dried vegetables."

Song Shiwei nodded with a smile, sat down directly, scooped a bowl of rice porridge from the earthenware jar, and picked up a piece of pickled meat. It must be said that the pickled meat fried with soaked vegetables tasted quite good.

Song Shiwei was quite satisfied with the breakfast.

"Oh, you're eating," Liu Daming walked over carrying a pheasant.

Song Shiwei nodded at him: "Have you eaten? If not, just eat something."

Liu Daming held down Zhang Wu who was about to stand up and grinned, "I've eaten it a long time ago. Tian Meiliang followed my father out hunting. We were lucky today. There were fish in all three traps. Here, my father asked me to bring you a pheasant."

"I'll go back after I deliver the food. I'm going to take a bath in the underground river before we leave. You guys take your time eating."

After Liu Daming finished speaking, he placed the pheasant next to Zhang Wu and then left quickly, as if he was afraid that the two would refuse.

Song Shi smiled and shook his head: "This person looks a few years older than you, but I didn't expect him to have the temperament of a child."

Thinking of Liu Daming's daily words and deeds, Zhang Wu also smiled slightly: "He has a somewhat eccentric personality. Many people in the village have cheerful personalities, which is good."

"It's pretty good."

After they finished eating, Zhang Wu diligently took the pheasant and bowls and chopsticks to the underground river to wash them. Song Shiwei had nothing to do, so he packed up their tents and went into the carriage to take a look at the stock on display. The oil, salt, sauce and vinegar were almost used up, so he took out the seasoning from the space and filled it up.

Many people in the village went out hunting. Thinking that they would soon leave, most of them went to the underground river to wash clothes and to store water, wishing they could take the entire underground river away with them.

After a while, Zhang Wu came back jogging with a fish weighing about two kilograms in his hand.

"Master, Huang Hai and his men have caught a lot of fish in the river. I plan to catch some too and make smoked fish later."

Seeing that he was in high spirits when he spoke, Song Shi smiled and nodded: "I'll go with you to see, catch more fish, and have more vegetables on the road later."

Zhang Wu's voice was not small, so everyone else in the cave heard it. The villagers said something to the village chief, and then followed the two men to go to the underground river to catch fish. Two officials also came out. Shen Yan and Xie An were also happy to hear that there were fish, and hurriedly picked up the wooden baskets and went to the underground river.

Huang Hai, Liu Daming and others were in the river. As soon as they arrived, they saw Liu Daming catch a big fish and throw it on the shore. Seeing this, everyone rolled up their trouser legs and sleeves and went into the water.

After Zhang Wu said something to Song Shiwei, he also quickly jumped into the water and walked towards Liu Daming and the others who were waving at him.

Song Shiwei had no intention of going into the water, so he stood on the shore and watched, holding the bamboo basket given by the villagers in his hand.

Shen Yan and Xie An walked in from behind at this time, and naturally saw Song Shiwei standing in a conspicuous place.

Xie An stepped forward and said, "Master Song, why don't you go into the water and catch some fish?"

Song Shiwei turned around and looked at him. His eyes fell on Shen Yan for a moment, and then he smiled and said, "Everyone has gone down. Who will hold the fish?"

"That's right. We will have to trouble Young Master Song later. When we catch the fish, we will treat you to some fish," Xie An nodded towards Song Shiwei, put the wooden basket at his feet, and rolled up his trouser legs like everyone else and went into the water.

Shen Yan followed closely behind Xie An, and when he passed by Song Shiwei, he met his half-smile, his heart suddenly tightened, and he said softly "trouble" and quickly went into the water, forgetting even to roll up his trouser legs.
