General Liu ordered the officers and soldiers to retreat and not get close to these evil and poisonous leaves, "Sir Gu, I just asked someone to investigate. The tukra wrapped in these poisonous leaves was the idea of ​​the woman Liu who just talked to you.

.”

Upon hearing this, the imperial envoy, Mr. Gu Shao, was slightly startled, and a tall woman with a sallow complexion flashed in his mind.

Being able to fight back against those bandits along with the men, and also come up with such good ideas to adapt to local conditions and turn defeat into victory, shows that this woman is extraordinary.

If it weren't for this weapon, the fleeing people hiding behind the pile of rocks would probably have been caught by the bandits, and some were even killed.

The imperial envoy Gu Shao said in a deep voice: "General Liu, thank you for your help this time. We found a golden bark tree in this dense forest. Send more people to continue searching to see if you can find more. In addition, these leaves collected,

He will be rushed to the capital at high speed."

Although he didn't know for a while what purpose these leaves had, the lethality was so strong that Gu Shao felt that he should report it.

General Liu immediately replied: "Yes, Mr. Gu!"

After Gu Shao confirmed that all the bandits were dead, he rushed to Dadukou with the box containing the golden leaves.

After driving for most of the day, just before dark, Village Chief Li led his people to find a suitable place to rest.

The terrain is relatively high and the surrounding area is flat and dry.

Mrs. Liu brought back a bundle of firewood and looked up at the stars in the sky. "Thank God, it's a sunny day and it won't rain. You don't have to worry if you live in the wild."

Liu Pan'er was making a fire to cook. Since she had to go on a journey and got a bag of rice, she made a pot of thick porridge.

"Yes, but this is a mountain forest after all, and there is dew at night. Sister-in-law, let's sleep around the fire at night." Liu Pan'er reminded, "Get more firewood, which can not only remove moisture, but also drive away wild beasts."

Ms. Liu agreed, "I understand. You continue cooking while I go pick up more firewood."

"Thank you for your hard work, sister-in-law." Liu Pan'er smiled and thanked her. Having her sister-in-law to help her along the way really made her feel more relaxed.

The child is too young to help, but having an adult help saves her energy.

In the evening, gathering around the fire and eating delicious porridge, the children showed their long-lost innocent smiles.

They laid out a mat and sprinkled some realgar powder to repel insects. Everyone lay on the mat and looked up at the sky.

"Mom, would you like to tell Ah Nan a story?" Li Nan nestled in Liu Pan'er's arms and asked softly.

Although Li Xiaobao also wanted to listen to the story, his mother must have been very tired walking along the way and teaching everyone how to recite the multiplication tables.

"Nan, recite the multiplication table to your mother and see if you can recite it?" Li Xiaobao changed the topic and diverted his sister's attention, hoping that his stepmother would have time to rest.

Li Nan was naive, and when her brother said, she changed the subject, "Of course I can memorize it, mother, listen carefully. One to one is one, one to two is two...seven to eight to fifty..."

··six······"

After a while, Li Nan felt sleepy and fell asleep before he finished reciting the multiplication table.

Liu Pan'er listened to Li Nan's even breathing, turned to look at Li Xiaobao on the other side of Li Nan who was still asleep, and lowered her voice and said: "Xiaobao, go to sleep quickly, we have to be on the road tomorrow."

Li Xiaobao nodded and replied in a low voice: "Mom, you are very tired, you should go to bed early."

Liu Pan'er agreed, got up, covered Li Dabao and Li Rong with a piece of clothing on their bellies, and then closed her eyes to sleep.

Village Chief Li arranged for someone to keep vigil and enjoy a peaceful night.

The next day, at dawn, everyone was in a hurry, cooked quickly, and then started on their way again.

Finally, on the afternoon of the next day, we came out of the woods. Fortunately, the old scalper found the ox cart that he had abandoned, which made Liu Pan'er ecstatic.

Liu Pan'er's family, together with the villagers, returned to Dadukou.

There was a long queue in front of us, all waiting to board the boat, and they were all very anxious.

Mrs. Liu was hungry, and her children must have been too, so she said to Liu Pan'er, "Third brothers and sisters, you drive the oxcart and line up with the children. I'll go and make some vegetable dumplings."

Liu Pan'er thought about how difficult it was to make the dumplings and how she had to fetch water. She took out the sweet potatoes from the basket, one for each person, "Sister-in-law, these are the roots of the plant I dug. They have red skin and I call them sweet potatoes. You put these in

Roasting them in a fire is easier than making vegetable dumplings."

Ms. Liu's eyes lit up and she nodded repeatedly, "Okay, I'll do it right now."

Zhou Cuihua also went to the roadside to make vegetable dumplings for her family. The hungry adults could hold them, but the children could not.

But while they were making a fire to cook, some young and middle-aged thugs, who were also hungry, came over to rob them.

A man pushed away Ms. Liu who was turning the sweet potatoes with a wooden stick and said, "You bitch, you can eat whatever you want."

"Give me one quickly!" The other one quickly took a stick and wanted to take out the food from the fire.

Zhou Cuihua quickly yelled, "Do you think there is no one in our Lijia Village? The head of the family, bring someone over and beat these gangsters to death."

When Liu Pan'er heard the sound, she got off the bullock cart and said to Li Dabao: "Dabao, look at the younger brothers and sisters. I'll go help the elder sister-in-law."

Liu Pan'er strode over, and within a few breaths, she rushed in front of those thugs, jumped up and kicked over the bastard who just pushed Liu.

That bastard was holding a sweet potato that was dark in appearance and fragrant. Just as he was about to peel it open and eat it, Liu Pan'er kicked him down. When he saw that Liu Pan'er was just a woman, he cursed, "You stinky bitch."

, do you want me to kill you?"

Liu Pan'er didn't wait for the man to speak again, kicked him up again, picked up the stick that was used as firewood on the ground, and beat the bastard, "Then I'll beat you to death now!"

Several other people saw such a fierce Liu Pan'er and wanted to rush over, but Village Chief Li had already brought people over and surrounded those bastards, "Beat me, these bastards think we are easy to bully!"

Village Chief Li has absolute authority in Lijia Village. At this time, with an order, a dozen young men and young adults beat those bastards severely.

On the contrary, Liu Pan'er took a few steps back and did not continue to step forward to beat the person. She helped Ms. Liu up and asked, "Sister-in-law, are you okay?"

Mrs. Liu shook his head. The three younger siblings were so awesome just now. She smiled and said, "It's okay. I just fell down and it doesn't hurt anymore. The sweet potatoes are roasted. Let's quickly pick them up and give them to the children."

Liu Pan'er nodded, "Yes, anyway, the village chief will teach those rogues a lesson. Let's go back and protect the children."

Mrs. Liu agreed, accept it as soon as it suits her, be capable but not pushy, and the three younger siblings are good people.

In the future, as long as her daughter can learn two or three of the skills of her three younger siblings, she will be successful when she grows up.
