As soon as I was reborn, my fiancé came to propose marriage!

Chapter 255: Transporting Grain Back to the Village

When Chen Jixiang and the others got the news, they were ecstatic. They didn't care about their tired bodies and ran over happily.

Everyone was just preparing to introduce the lynx that had made great contributions to those who came later, but when they turned around, it disappeared!

"Hey, it was just here."

Chen Ping looked at the person in front of him who was scratching his head and couldn't figure it out, then silently glanced at his younger brother and found that he looked normal. He felt in his heart that this must have been caused by the third brother.

I don’t know what method he used. Could it be that the God of Wealth has been following them since they left the village?

"Let's transport the food quickly. It's getting late and it will take several days to transport so much food. Every minute of delay will bring danger."

Chen Yan reminded.

Gao Yingming felt that he was right, and told everyone to take up their weapons and go into the remaining caves. After confirming that a cave was safe, he would leave a few people behind to move the food inside to the open space.

After repeating this process over and over again, I finally encountered a ferocious animal!

There were giant snakes as thick as tree trunks coiled in several of the caves, and there was even a tiger lying in a high cave, but they were all dealt with by everyone's joint efforts.

After everyone had dealt with all the dangerous animals, they no longer had the energy to move the remaining food.

They decided to move tomorrow. Everyone collapsed on the open space with difficulty, and they couldn't believe that they had just dealt with those ferocious beasts by themselves!

“I really killed a tiger!”

"What do you mean you beat him to death? Aren't you ashamed? We all beat him to death together, okay?"

"Yes, and Brother Yan was the main force! Brother Yan rushed to the front and dealt with those big snakes!"

"So does that tiger!"

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone looked at Chen Yan with gratitude in their eyes.

Chen Yan rushed to the front in order to use the electric baton to stun those things so that everyone could kill them. However, others didn't know this and only thought that his martial arts skills were indeed very strong.

Even Lin Ye couldn't help but tremble in his heart, thinking that Master Chen was really being merciful by only using those little tricks to deal with his young lady and cousin!

Otherwise, with his methods, it would only take a few minutes to torture someone to death.

Gao Yingming was even more shocked. He was very glad that he made the decision on Gao Yingying's matter very quickly and did not become an enemy of Chen Yan. Otherwise, he and his two siblings would probably be lying on the ground like those beasts.

........

After returning to the village, Grandma Liao was very happy when she knew that they had found the granary.

Everyone was exhausted and could only carry a small amount of food up first, and they specially left a lot for Grandma Liao.

She looked at the huge pile of food in the yard and waved her hands repeatedly.

"I can't eat that much, you guys keep it for yourselves, it would be a waste if you give it to me!"

"Don't worry, we have some left for ourselves. These are for you. Please keep them well. We will leave soon after we move the food downstairs. Are you willing to come with us?"

Chen Yan leaned over and asked.

Granny Liao sat on a stool in the yard. Her figure looked hunched and weak, which made everyone around her feel sad.

Who doesn’t have an elderly person at home?

It's too pitiful to leave this old man here alone...

"Yes, why don't you come back to the village with us? Our village is very safe, and now you have food, so you can live well in the village."

Chen Jixiang also came forward to persuade him.

Mrs. Liao was firm in her attitude. "No, I won't go. I was born here and I will die here. They say fallen leaves return to their roots... The world is in chaos now, and so many people have left their hometowns. This is the only wish of my wife. Thank you for still worrying about me."

"But... since the food has been given to me, can I trade it with you?"

"Mother-in-law, if you have something to say, just say it directly. You don't have to exchange it for food. If it weren't for your riddle, we would never find it even if we searched for it forever. This is what you deserve."

Chen Yan said softly.

Mrs. Liao looked back embarrassedly. Dafu seemed to sense something and ran over and lay on her legs, refusing to let go.

"Mother-in-law..."

As soon as he said this, Mrs. Liao couldn't help but burst into tears, "Good boy, grandma won't live long. You can only survive if you follow your brother and the others."

Everyone then understood that Mrs. Liao wanted to entrust her child to the care of others!

Dafu has always been very sensible since being picked up by Mrs. Liao, but today he kept making a fuss. He clung to Mrs. Liao's body and cried, "I won't leave, I won't leave! I'll stay here with my mother-in-law and won't go anywhere!"

Everyone remained silent as they watched the grandparents and grandchildren crying their hearts out.

Although Dafu is not Mrs. Liao's biological grandson, everyone has seen how well Mrs. Liao has taken care of Dafu during this period. She treats him as her own grandson!

Mrs. Liao wanted to use food to exchange for Dafu's safe growth, which was a hundred times and a thousand times better than his stepmother cruelly abandoning him and his biological father who didn't pay any attention to his son!

.........

Three days later, everyone finally moved all the food up and found an empty house to store it, preparing to transport it to Yulin Village in batches.

Dafu was also sitting in the grain cart, lying together with Chen Chunsheng.

He looked at Mrs. Liao who was waving at him at the entrance of the village, biting his lower lip and refusing to say a word.

In the eyes of the children, it was like being abandoned by their loved ones again.

Chen Yan quietly approached their cart. Chen Chunsheng was startled at first and shouted, "Brother Yan, I, I didn't say anything this time. You can't be the one to hit me, right?"

Chen Yan didn't even look at him. He stretched out his hand to Dafu, paused, and then rubbed his head hard as if they were the first time they met, until his hair became a mess like a chicken coop.

Da Fu and he couldn't help laughing.

"She is doing this for your own good, she doesn't want to abandon you..."

"I know, brother."

Dafu's voice was choked with sobs, "I know everything..."

After saying that, he didn't even look at Chen Yan. He lowered his head and leaned on the grain bag, fiddling with his hands.

Chen Chunsheng felt a little sad, after all, he and Brother Yan were cousins ​​from different families. For so many days, Brother Yan never asked about his injuries except for the first day when he saw him injured.

I finally made the trip here today, just for this strange child.

Alas, it turned out that having a disabled leg was useless. Not only was he laughed at by everyone along the way, but he was also despised by his own cousin. He sighed to the sky.

When Chen Yan saw his weird look, he knew that he must be thinking about something else in his head. He didn't bother to pay attention to him. He left food and water to Dafu and ran to the front to push his own cart.

I don’t know if it was because God had mercy on them for the hardships they had gone through along the way, and the effort they had put into finding and transporting food, but the journey back was actually much smoother than the journey there.

They set out at night, taking the same path they had taken when they came here. Perhaps because they had already walked this path once, and the fact that the path was only half an hour's journey from the entrance of Yulin Village, the group did not split into two teams.

100 people and ten carts all headed towards Yulin Village.

Apart from a few refugees, I didn't see anyone on the road.

At first, the refugees wanted to go forward to ask for food, but then they saw a large group of people, all holding weapons in their hands, and they immediately hid far away, not even daring to ask.

.......

The village chief has been waiting in the village for several days, but no one has come back. He is so anxious!

It's not just him. Families whose relatives have left the village would block the village chief's house every day and complain.

Two days ago, I was still thinking that when there was food to eat, I should make a pot of noodles to reward myself. But later on, there was still no news, and I was so anxious that I almost exploded.

From the elderly to the children, the house was in chaos and the whole village was in chaos.

The village chief was even more frustrated by their questions. He felt a little uneasy and was wondering whether he should send more people to look for them.

What’s going on? Why hasn’t he come back in such a long time?

For safety reasons, the patrol team left behind dozens of people in addition to the 100 people who went to transport grain.

The villagers were not so stupid as not to leave any able-bodied men behind.

But if there is danger over there, wouldn’t the remaining people who are sent out also be in danger?

The village chief is really in a dilemma!

He couldn't fall asleep every day until midnight. In the past, Aunt Pang just let him worry on his own, but now she couldn't sleep either, and Chen Jixiang was also in there!

How can I not be anxious when I give birth to a son after ten months of pregnancy?

She wanted to ask 800 times a day, "What should I do?"

"What should I do? Say something!"

I can’t remember how many times I’ve spoken today.

The village chief held his forehead helplessly and said, "How do I know if you ask me? Just wait and see. If you don't come back tomorrow, I will go find him, okay?"

The village chief was so anxious that he put on his clothes and wanted to go to Chen Jixiang's room to sleep. If he continued to sleep with her, his ears would get calluses, and he was afraid that he would not be able to sleep that night.

As soon as I walked out of the yard, I heard cheers of joy and the sound of wheels turning in the distance.

After a while, the cheers broke through the sky!

The village chief's heart couldn't help but tremble, "Jixiang's mother, come out quickly!"

He hadn't called Auntie Fat like that for many years. Auntie Fat rushed out of the house in shock. She also heard the noise and sat on the ground and burst into tears. "Wow, my son, I almost thought I was going to collect his body."

The village chief's face fell after just two seconds of happiness. "Why are you crying? I know it's a good thing just by the sound. Why don't you put on your clothes and go to the village entrance to take a look!"

"This is a good thing. Don't look sad and miserable when you get there."

"You don't need to tell me that. I'm happy!"

Aunt Fat got up from the ground, brushed off the dust on her body, straightened her clothes, and without waiting for the old man in her family, she rushed out in one step.
