"You are my father, we are a family, how can I not help if something like this happens?" Song Yutong helped the excited old man Song sit down.
Song Yuqian took the initiative to walk to Song Yutong and Cheng Hanyan, and was about to kneel down as soon as her knees bent.
However, Cheng Hanyan had quick eyesight and quick hands to stop him. He grabbed Song Yuqian's arm and supported her.
"Sister, what are you doing?" Song Yutong stepped forward to help Cheng Hanyan and pulled Song Yuqian up.
"Your brother-in-law and I came back to our parents' home from Xiaohe Village. Thank you very much for the five taels of silver you and your brother-in-law gave us. Today, I want to thank you even more for bringing us food rations so that our children will not starve."
Song Yuqian spoke very sincerely, and her eyes when she looked at Song Yutong were filled with regret.
"In Xiaohe Village, your brother-in-law and I treated you like this, it was us..."
Before Song Yuqian finished speaking, she was interrupted by Song Yutong.
"Sister, it's all over, why are you bringing up the past? Then we all have to live well. When the drought is over, I want to open a restaurant. Do you think I can open it with my current skills?"
Song Yutong talked about her plans for the future and also used this topic to divert Song Yuqian's attention from the past.
"It takes a lot of money to open a restaurant..." Song Yuqian was stunned, but she didn't expect her sister to have such a big ambition now.
But then I thought about it, my sister and her husband already had money in their hands, and they wanted to lend it to his family. Now they have no money in their hands. At worst, she and her husband will go out to find something to do.
Earn more money and pay it back to Song Yutong as soon as possible so that she can have enough money to open a restaurant.
"If you want to do it, sister will help you!"
"Okay!" Song Yutong nodded.
During their lifetime, Old Man Song and Mother Song were indescribably excited and happy to see the two sisters reconcile and become real sisters.
The two sisters finally help each other like other sisters.
"Sister, I'll leave the house to you. We will bring more food tomorrow night, and you and your parents will dig a more secret cellar to hide the food in."
Song Yutong asked Song Yuqian. Cheng Hanyan had already started to pack things and put away all the pots and porcelain jars they brought.
These are used to hold millet porridge, pickled spicy and sour radish and spicy cabbage.
After using it, you have to take it back. The millet porridge and vegetables in the pot are almost eaten, and only the empty porcelain jar and pot are left.
They also hid the remaining pancakes that they had not finished, so they could have a meal tomorrow. They would never go hungry again.
"It's late at night. You should go back early. Don't leave Mingxuan alone at home and make people worry."
Song's mother didn't see Naituanzi coming over, so she thought her youngest daughter and son-in-law had left the child alone at home.
It is indeed more dangerous to take it out than to leave it at home, but the child will also be scared at home alone.
"It's okay, Mingxuan is taken care of by Xiuwen. Let's go back now. If someone comes to cause trouble, you must not conflict with them. Leave everything to the man with the scar on his face who came to rob us just now."
Song Yutong told her parents what Cheng Hanyan had just done, and received unanimous praise instantly.
At the same time, I was extremely grateful to this little son-in-law. Everyone knew that he was a hunter, but they didn't expect that he was so capable that he could even bribe the bandit to work for him.
What a blessing! Both the eldest son-in-law and the younger son-in-law are good, and so is the eldest son-in-law. He would not have been injured in the first place, but he only blocked the knife to protect the two old men, and finally lost.
"Then let's go back first." Cheng Hanyan greeted the Song family and led Song Yutong towards Chengjia Village carrying the baggage.
The scarred man and his little brother, who had been hiding outside, hid in the corner and watched the married couple leaving.
"Brother, do you think we should go up and give them a sap?"
A young gangster suggested that he was beaten by the man just now and his body still hurts. If he doesn't take revenge and goes back, will he still be a man?
"Knock on you, don't you want the half bag of grain?" The scarred man glanced at the younger brother with sharp eyes, a clear warning in his eyes.
The younger brother touched his still painful arm and muttered in a low voice: "If we follow him now and find out where his home is first, will we not be able to get food?"
"He actually gave up half a bag of grain, which proves that their family must have a lot of grain. If we go over and knock their sap off, we will not only get revenge but also get more grain. Why can't we do it?"
The younger brother's muttering was clearly heard by the few gangsters around him. After thinking about it, it was indeed like this, and he was right!
The man with the scar slapped him up, knocking the talkative boy into silence.
"Although we are not decent people, you have to remember that we are not really gangsters. We were forced to do it because we couldn't eat. But we already have so much food in our hands, why do we need to do such things again."
The scarred man still retains a trace of kindness in his heart. He has just embarked on the road of banditry, and he has been forced by life. He does not want to see his family starve to death, and he does not want to see his subordinates starve to death.
"Brother, you are just too kind. We are already bandits now. We have already robbed us, and then we turn around and say that we are not bandits. Will anyone believe it?"
Another younger brother also spoke, looking at the backs of the married couple as if looking at moving grain, his eyes full of longing.
"That's different. Being forced to do evil and actively doing evil are not the same nature. The time spent in jail for being forced to kill and actively committing murder are different. Doesn't this illustrate the problem."
"You all should remember carefully. We have to do this kind of thing to make food for our families. It doesn't mean that we become real bandits after robbing someone once."
"If there is a better way in the future, we can't do such a thing again no matter how hard we try."
The scarred man still has a conscience in his heart.
Just after he said these words, Cheng Hanyan suddenly turned around and looked at the corner where the scarred man was.
What I was thinking was, this person can handle it!
His hearing has always been very good after hunting for a long time, and he himself has not traveled very far. Everything that Scar Man discussed with his younger brothers fell into Cheng Hanyan's ears.
At the same time, it also reassured him that at least this person's character was okay. He could also rest assured that she would protect the old, weak and wounded in the Song family.
For this sake, he can find a way to give him half a bag of rice.
Song Yutong saw Cheng Hanyan suddenly turn his head, as if he was looking at something, which was a bit strange.
"Sir, is there anyone following us?"
"No, we have chosen the right person." Cheng Hanyan told Song Yutong the conversation between Scar Man and his younger brothers in a few words.
After all, Song Yutong had to make the decision to give him an extra half bag of rice.
