Rebirth: The whole family travels through time together: Fubao Koi is busy eating melons

Mrs. Zhang took the document and issued an order to leave in a resolute and almost cold tone: "Hurry up and leave quickly. This place doesn't belong to you anymore!"

He asked in a tearful voice, "Could it be that our parents dislike us so much that they can't bear to let us stay one more night?"

Facing her son's plea, Mrs. Zhang was not moved at all. Instead, she scolded him in an almost cruel tone: "You bunch of losers, get out of my sight immediately and don't bring your bad luck to us!"

As he said this, he picked up a broom beside him and acted as if he was going to take action, forcing them to leave.

The six people from the second house silently walked out of the Zhang family's door.

Xu Liyun covered her chest with her hands, lowered her head deeply, and her trembling shoulders seemed to be crying silently.

The rest of the children had faces filled with loss and confusion, and their worries and fears about their future lives were clearly visible in their eyes.

There were many sighs and lamentations among the crowd watching.

Although everyone wants to lend a helping hand, when looking at the tight life at home, who can have the extra ability to support another family of six?

The fickleness of the world is fully displayed at this moment.

Finally, the village chief proposed a solution: "At the end of the village, at the foot of Daxiu Mountain, there is a thatched house that has been neglected for a long time. I will take the initiative to let your family settle down here for the time being. What to do in the future depends entirely on your own wishes and efforts."

Faced with this rare place to live, an imperceptible light of gratitude flashed in Zhang Laoer's eyes. He quickly nodded in agreement, and kept expressing his gratitude to the village chief.

As the village chief finished speaking, the villagers responded one after another, went home, and spontaneously prepared what they could.

The Wang family brought a handful of fresh and tender vegetables, while the Li family contributed some plump and round sweet potatoes.

These little bits of thoughtfulness gathered into a warm torrent, flowing towards the Zhang family's newly moved cottage.

The little girl held her arms full of gifts, tears sparkling in her eyes, and expressed her sincere gratitude.

This warm atmosphere infected everyone. The villagers were so enthusiastic that they spontaneously organized themselves to help move their belongings. The huge team escorted Xiao Youniang and her family towards the lonely thatched house.

However, the thatched cottage looked particularly desolate due to years of disrepair.

The thatch on the roof was sparse, and the coolness could be felt even when the night breeze blew. There would be nowhere to hide when the rain was raging.

Although the walls are barely holding up, the interior has been abandoned, with weeds growing wildly and insects and ants running rampant, revealing a sense of desolation and ruin everywhere.

Seeing this family, with its thin adults and immature children, the villagers couldn't help but feel sad. They involuntarily extended a helping hand and started to clean up spontaneously.

Fortunately, the stone walls surrounding the yard are still strong, protecting this area and at least ensuring that it is not disturbed by the outside world in the dead of night.

Everyone worked together to carefully lay the intact tiles they had picked up on the most intact hut. After a busy time, they finally cleared out a space big enough to live in. Although it was simple, it was enough for Zhang Laoer and his family to take shelter from the wind and rain and spend their first night.

As for other difficult problems, they decided to leave them for discussion in the Ming Dynasty.

Xu Liyun and her family sincerely expressed their deep gratitude to the enthusiastic villagers.

Zhang Laoer even made a solemn promise: "When our lives improve, I will definitely host a banquet to entertain you and use the best food and wine to repay your kindness."

These heartfelt words made the villagers feel a little embarrassed, thinking that they were just polite remarks. No one could have expected that in the near future, the Zhang family would actually hold a banquet and invite the whole village to celebrate.

More than a dozen villagers fought side by side, but even so, it still took four hours.

Until the last ray of setting sun in the sky was swallowed up by the night, everyone went home, leaving behind strings of laughter and joy echoing on the path.

Zhang Laoer, with a smile on his face, sent each helper to the gate of the yard, then turned around and started to busy himself at home, helping his family pack the remaining luggage.

While no one was paying attention at home, Xu Liyun quietly took out some snacks that she had hidden before and carefully distributed them to her family. Fortunately, everyone had filled their stomachs before returning to the village, otherwise their stomachs would probably have been rumbling with hunger by now.

After simply replenishing his energy, Zhang Laoer took his two sons and started to dismantle a few relatively solid wooden boards in the house, thinking about how to build a temporary bed to solve the urgent problem.

At this time, Xu Liyun had an idea and borrowed a few branches from Zhang Wuya, planning to go up the mountain to hunt a rabbit to add a dish for dinner.

Xiao Youniang picked up some scraps of cloth and, together with her sister, carefully wiped every corner inside and outside the house.

The only drawback is that there are neither water tanks nor clear wells around this simple thatched house, and there is not even a place to get water nearby.

The clean water I am using now is all donated by neighbors out of kindness. I think about returning the borrowed basins one by one tomorrow to avoid owing favors to others.

Under the overcast and rainy sky, Zhang Laoer's thatched cottage looked particularly desolate.

In that already simple thatched house, the wooden boards had taken on a faint dark green color due to long-term moisture, as if water could be squeezed out of them. In addition, many places had been eaten away by greedy insects and ants, leaving small mottled holes, adding a sense of precariousness.

Zhang Laoer and Zhang Sanwa looked at each other in bewilderment, their hands covered in grease, but at a loss as to what to do. Without the right tools, the lack of hammers and nails left them helpless in the face of the crumbling wooden board.

After some futile efforts, several people had helpless smiles on their faces and finally decided to give up this seemingly hopeless repair work.

Zhang Laoer frowned and after thinking for a moment, he decisively sent his eldest son to seek help from Zhou Xiucai.

"The Zhou family has ample space in their mansion, so we can borrow a seat for emergency use. Remember to tell him that when our batch of spiritual medicine is successfully refined, we will give him two pills in return as a token of gratitude."

Zhang Sanwa's mind was in a mess because of the conversation in the carriage during the day. All the rumors about Mr. Zhou came to his mind again, but he quickly calmed down and urged Zhang Siwa to set off immediately.

As for Zhang Siwa, Zhou Xiucai made him inexplicably afraid. After hesitating for a long time, he chose to pick up the little girl who was helping Zhang Wuya clean the yard.

Seeing this, Zhang Wuya hurriedly chased after them, but her pace could not match Zhang Siwa's urgency, and she could only watch the backs of the brother and sister gradually disappear into the distance.

The little girl was startled by the sudden "flight" and started laughing.

At this time in the Zhou family courtyard, the servants who were usually busy were nowhere to be found, leaving Zhou Xiucai alone lying on the creaking rocking chair, leisurely flipping through the book in his hands.

When Zhang Siwa appeared in sight holding the little girl, Zhou Xiucai reacted calmly, as if everything was expected. He just raised his eyes slightly and asked calmly about their purpose.
