"Are the eldest and second brothers back?"

The old lady was overjoyed. Fortunately, she did not abandon herself. The bet was a win.

The eldest son's wife followed her mother's gaze and saw that it was indeed them.

The voices of joy became louder.

"Found it?"

The eldest brother walked forward a few steps, came close to the old lady, and squatted down, "Yes, I found it. Mother, what did you ask us to look for the third brother for?"

The old lady patted the eldest son's shoulder vigorously and said, "Silly boy, he must have something to eat there."

The eldest son felt that his mother was thinking too simply. She had treated the third son so badly in the past. Even if his family had food to eat, it wouldn't matter. They had already divided the family and were now two families.

Food is very expensive nowadays. It is already good enough for them to have enough food to eat. It is really wishful thinking to expect him to support such a large family.

"Mom, he won't give us anything to eat."

The old lady couldn't bear to hear this, and her face suddenly changed. "I am his mother. So what if we split up? That can't change the fact that he came out of my belly."

The second brother gave the eldest brother a look, signaling him to stop talking, saying that it was useless and a waste of time.

The eldest brother understood what his second brother meant, so he stopped talking and stood up.

Indeed, no one can stop my mother from doing what she wants to do. Even if a hundred mouths try to persuade her, she can still stop them.

Just now, the eldest and the second oldest had met Jinshui and Xiuli and told them about this matter. They were about to go find the third oldest. The two had different expressions after hearing this, but the eldest and the second oldest didn't care about it because they were just two girls.

The two of them used the excuse that they wanted to dig some more wild vegetables and wanted to notify Ni'er and the others to see if they could move to another place.

But the second brother asked them to go back first. He didn't want to make marks along the way, which would be troublesome. Anyway, they couldn't find much wild vegetables now, so it would be better to go back together so that they could also help carry things.

The two followed slowly from behind, not daring to speak loudly, and could only lean close to each other's ears and whisper, "Sister, what should we do?"

Xiuli frowned, her brows twisted even more than a knot.

"There's nothing I can do."

Hearing his sister's answer, Jinshui's eyes dimmed.

"Uncle San's place has a lot of food. Grandma must have thought of this before going there."

Xiuli nodded, agreeing with her sister's opinion. Suddenly she thought of something, a look of anxiety appeared on her face, and she pulled Jinshui's sleeve.

"Do you think Uncle San and the others would think that we were the ones who brought the person over?"

Jinshui was so scared that he choked on his saliva and coughed a few times.

The second child glanced back and didn't look again. He didn't know what the two were talking about behind him. Their voices were so low and they had been talking all the way. It might be something between girls and it was not convenient to tell adults. He was not interested in it either.

He urged impatiently, "Hurry up and catch up, it will be dark soon."

Jinshui coughed a few more times before he stopped. Xiuli took the initiative to respond, "I know, Daddy."

What should we do if they really think so? We must explain to them that this old lady is really useless. She causes all kinds of troubles every day. We finally got close to Ni'er and her family, and now this is the end.

Jinshui's eyes were full of despair, he was afraid that this incident would affect his relationship with Ni'er.

Xiu Li saw her sister's worry and put her arm around her shoulders.

"Nier is smart and can see the whole story clearly. She will definitely not misunderstand us."

"Besides, even if Grandma and the others move over there, they may not be able to eat their food. With Ni'er here, there's nothing to worry about."

Jinshui then felt slightly relieved, and the worry on his face dissipated like a dark cloud, returning to his former sunny state.

I could see grandma from a distance, lying on a stretcher, her hands constantly pointing in different directions. My aunt was running around without stopping to do what the old lady wanted. I felt really tired for her.

When can I stay away from grandma? Even if I am sold and become someone else's maid, it will be much better than the life I have now.

The eldest brother saw that his wife was being ordered around by her mother and looked more haggard than when he saw her just now. He reached out and helped her tidy up her fallen hair.

When I got close to the old lady, the same situation happened at the beginning.

"Mom, let's go, everyone is here."

The old lady had been looking forward to this moment and was so excited.

When we get there, we'll be able to eat good food, not just fill our stomachs.

The group started walking towards the third brother.

Ni'er and Niu Li were not nervous at all. They used mosquito repellent powder to carefully isolate their own tent.

When the old lady's gang comes over, they will definitely set their eyes on the food that their family brought over. Most of the food is placed in the tent, so it is relatively safe. There are also gold ingots, so they will not come in to steal it.

Ni'er and Niu Li did not tell Daddy that they were coming, nor did they explain their plans. Daddy did not need to know this. It would be really difficult for him to do this if he knew.

There is some food outside the tent, and they might eat it.

He might come and ask first, and if he doesn't agree, he'll just snatch it away. Dad will probably not say anything, he'll just be angry and let it go.

Then sprinkle some itching powder. Anyone who touches it will feel extremely itchy. Scratching the skin will not help. Washing with water can relieve the pain a little but it will not have much effect. You can only bear it. The effect of the medicine will wear off after two hours.

"Brother, the itching powder is already spread, don't let Dad and Mom touch it." He took out a porcelain bottle from his bag and poured out a pill, "This is the antidote, take it, if you touch it don't scratch it, it will hurt, just take the antidote."

Niu Li took the medicine and hid it on his body.

"Uh-huh~"

Ni'er called Yuanbao, who was playing nearby, over and gave it some instructions. Niuli was used to it, and Yuanbao barked to show his agreement.

Nier glanced at the donkey, which was lying there leisurely and contentedly. No one was more comfortable here than it.

"Brother Donkey, don't let anyone take you away."

He exhaled twice and looked at Ni'er again, as if to say, 'As long as I don't want to leave, no one can stop me.'

Everything is ready, just waiting for them to come.

The third child had no idea what was going on. He saw the two children busying around there and even applying mosquito repellent powder, which was very thoughtful.

"What do you want to eat tonight? Daddy will make it for you."

Ni'er and Niu Li both shook their heads.

Niu Li added: "It's still early in the evening, I'm not hungry at all. I'll think about it when I get hungry later. I really can't think of what to eat right now."

Nier's eyes fell on the tent and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"Yeah, how about Daddy go ask Mom what she wants to eat, and we'll eat whatever she wants."

After hearing this, the third brother walked towards the tent, turned around and said, "Okay, I'll ask you guys later."
