Chapter Eighteen: My People

"What are the good things about snake fish? Don't go." Hao Zhao kicked the dead fish on the ground and said, "And these fish are grown up by eating dead children. Don't you feel sick?"

When Hutou heard this, he scratched his head awkwardly and said, "I, I just want to find some food for the village. The black water pond is full of snake fish, not a thousand or eight hundred, and they are still so big."

Hao Zhao glared at him, and Hutou didn't say anything else.

Another companion, named Gouzi, said: "Brother Zhao, Huzi didn't mean it. It's winter is coming, so he also wants to prepare more winter food for the village."

Hao Zhao pursed his lips and said nothing, as if there was a story.

Wei Wen looked at all this and did not interrupt. He had first arrived and learned about some bad habits in history books, such as children's ditches and mass graves, almost every place has them.

The atmosphere was a bit dull. Hutou and Dogzi hugged aside and did not dare to provoke Hao Zhao. Wei Ju shook his head helplessly. His fishing rod was broken, and he could only bored to see what useful medicinal materials were there by the stream.

It’s true that the mountains and forests of this era are not polluted, and the animals and plants have not been over-captured and excavated. As soon as I opened up a piece of grass, I saw good things.

It was a flowering licorice. Although this thing is not valuable, it is suitable for cooking herbal tea in the summer. The "Bencao Tujing" records: "Treat wind-heat, erysipelas, and sores in children. Decoct with licorice and drink."

Wei Wen knew that a herbal tea recipe requires such good quality licorice. In summer, the heat is heavy. After the herbal tea is cooked and frozen, let’s have a cup. It is more comfortable than a fat man who is happy and has more water.

Wei Ju picked a few plants, washed the rhizomes with stream water, and smelled them. It felt like there was a little more vegetation and wood fragrance than modern artificially cultivated. To put it more exaggeratedly, there was a little more spiritual energy, which was the best medicinal material.

As noon approached, Wei Wen felt a little hungry, so he suggested going back to the village to rest.

Hao Zhao and the other two had no objection. Anyway, the fishing nets in the deep mountains and forests were not afraid of being stolen. Moreover, their main task was to protect Wei Zi's safety. If Wei Zi wants to go back, they should accompany him.

The four of them came happily in the morning, but when they went back, they were a little silent because of a black fish.

Wei Wen was very curious about what happened to Hao Zhao, but he was just curious and did not ask about the meaning of inquiry.

Back at the top of the mountain, several children in the village were chasing each other. They were wearing new clothes given by Wei Wu and playing games happily.

When Xiao Aning saw Wei Feng coming back, she ran over and rushed into Wei Feng's arms, and suddenly rushed into Wei Feng's arms, and was very dependent on Wei Feng.

"Brother Wei, I'm hungry."

Wei Feng was so amused that he picked her up and said, "Go back and cook noodles for you."

He bought a lot of noodles last night, and also bought meat sauce and Lao Ganma for mixed noodles. This thing is convenient and delicious. When Wei Wu was alone, he basically solved the meal like this.

When Aning heard that there was noodle to eat, he thought it was instant noodles. His little face was filled with joy, and he hugged Wei Wen's neck excitedly and refused to let go.

The other children looked envious when they saw him. They had heard Aning say that delicious instant noodles were so envious. Now they heard Aning go to eat instant noodles again, and they were all so envious.

Wei Ju didn't notice this scene and hugged Aning back to the thatched cottage on the hillside. The two words "humble room" on the door plaque were engraved very three-dimensionally, and the carving work on the head was not bad. Wei Ju liked this plaque very much. The key was that you could smell the faint sandalwood when you entered the door.

Pushing open the yard, Hao Niang and Xiao E were cleaning the yard. A little water was sprinkled on the ground. Hao Niang carefully gathered a pile of fallen leaves with a broom woven by twigs. Xiao E took a bamboo basket and collected the leaves, so she could start a fire when she turned around.

Seeing Wei Feng coming back, the two of them bowed to Wei Feng with a restrained look.

Wei Feng was about to instruct Hao Niang to cook in the fire when he suddenly saw a bright red slap on Xiao E's face.

Wei Feng couldn't help but frown and asked, "What's going on? Who beat me?"

Xiao E was so trembling that she didn't dare to raise her head, and even blocked Wei Wen's vision with her hands.

Hao Niang frowned slightly, took Xiao E's hand, and said, "Don't be afraid, the young master is a good person."

Wei Feng looked at Xiao E and found that in addition to the slap marks on her face, there were also traces of bruises on her wrists.

Wei Feng couldn't bear it anymore. Xiao E was only fourteen or fifteen years old. Who would have the heart to put such a heavy hand on such a young child? The key is that the old and new scars on her arm overlapped, and it was obvious that she was beaten a day or two.

After some inquiry, I realized that the person who attacked Xiao E was not someone else, but Xiao E's biological father.

And this time Xiao E was beaten, which has more or less something to do with Wei Feng.

The reason is that yesterday Wei Feng asked the woman to cut new clothes for the children in the village. Xiao E's younger brother was just ten years old and did not get the clothes. After returning home, he cried and made a fuss, accusing Xiao E of turning his elbow out.

In the morning, Wei Feng asked Hao Niang to steam an extra pot of steamed buns and distribute them to the elderly in the village. Xiao E's father took one with a greedy face. Xiao E just said something more and was slapped by her father. In addition, her son did not get a new clothes yesterday, Xiao E's father slapped her and was unable to relieve her. He even fucked and fucked her directly.

Wei Feng didn't expect that such a thing would happen, so he immediately asked Hao Niang to find Hao Dadao.

Hao Dadao was tying at home. He heard that Wei Ju was looking for him and ran up without wearing any clothes. As soon as he came, he saw Xiao E kneeling on the ground and crying. He thought that Xiao E had annoyed Wei Ju. He was so scared that he scolded Xiao E.

Seeing this, Wei Feng said in a deep voice: "Uncle Dadao, do you know that Xiao E was beaten by her father?"

Hao Dadao was stunned for a moment, then quickly responded: "I know, I know, this is a misunderstanding. Lao Liu took a steamed bun and I have scolded him."

Wei Feng frowned, "Is it the mantou business? I mean Xiao E was beaten."

Hao Dadao didn't react for a while. Isn't it normal for adults to beat children? What's wrong with making a fuss?

Seeing that the explanation was not understood, Wei Feng simply said, "Since you arranged the person for me, then they are my Wei Feng's people. My person was beaten. Don't you need to give me an explanation?"

Now Hao Dadao got enlightened. He was so shocked that Wei Feng wanted to vent his anger for Xiao E.

When Hao Niang, who was standing beside him, looked at Wei Wu with a trace of unknown meaning, because Wei Wu just said "them", which naturally included her. For some reason, she felt sweet in her heart.

Wei Ju said again: "It was a good thing to wear new clothes for the children and eat steamed buns for the elderly, but what I didn't expect was that my kindness caused my people to be beaten. Haha, the men in Haojia Village are so manly, even a little girl with no power to tie her up."

Hao Dadao was already sweating profusely, and Wei Wen's sarcasm made him feel a little confused about Wei Wen's attitude.

"Then, what does the young master mean?" Hao Dadao looked at the wound on Xiao E's body and looked up and tentatively.

Wei Feng didn't know what to do with Xiao'e's father for a moment, so he said, "Think about it yourself, what would you do if Hao Niang was beaten?"

When Hao Dadao heard this, he looked at his daughter. After thinking about it, a trace of harshness flashed in his eyes, and he clasped his fists and said, "Don't worry, young master, I know what to do."
