The second day of the escape was obviously a little slower than the first day.
Firstly, the mountain road became more and more rugged and difficult to walk. Secondly, after this sleep passed, many people not only did not rest, but also felt extremely sore all over. Naturally, the progress was slower.
The children in the Mei family are not bad, even Mei Qingying is young after all. After working hard all day yesterday, after walking for a while today, her face turned red and she was breathing heavily.
The few strands of hair on her forehead were wet with sweat and stuck to her face. She looked hot, tired and very uncomfortable.
Qiao Huaping couldn't stand it anymore, so she picked up Mei Qingying and put her on the trolley: "Sit down and rest."
Mei Qingying moved her little body awkwardly, her eyelashes fluttering like a round fan, she looked at Qiao Huaping, she didn't say anything, she just licked her dry lips.
Qiao Huaping was so cute that she took off the water bag hanging on the side of the car and handed it to Mei Qingying: "Drink some water."
She got up early in the morning, went to the nearby mountains and forests to collect some herbs that could clear away heat and relieve heat, and made a large pot of soup.
Because he was afraid that Mei Qingying wouldn't be able to drink it, Qiao Huaping threw some licorice in when making the heat-clearing and relieving soup in the morning.
Although this licorice is not as sweet as sugar, the sweetness is very good. When paired with the refreshing herbal soup, it is actually very good. After drinking it, the whole person feels refreshed.
Mei Qingying took the water bag from Qiao Huaping, hesitated for a moment, and then unscrewed the lid.
The unique smell of Qingrejieshu Decoction hits you, and just by smelling it, your whole body is shaken.
Mei Qingyao was always wary of Qiao Huaping.
When he saw Qiao Huaping giving the little sister a water bag, and after the little sister unscrewed the water bag, she was still holding the water bag in a daze, he thought that this vicious woman had done something else.
Mei Qingyao rushed forward and asked Qiao Huaping angrily: "What did you give to my little sister? Are you trying to do something else?!"
But before Mei Qingyao finished speaking, he saw the little girl holding a water bag and taking a few sips!
Mei Qingyao was shocked.
Mei Qingying put down the water bag, her eyes were shining, and her whole body was visibly more energetic.
She said loudly: "It tastes delicious!"
While talking, he stuffed a water bag into Mei Qingyao's place: "Brother, drink too!"
Mei Qingyao was extremely embarrassed.
Qiao Huaping glanced at Mei Qingyao with a half-smile.
Mei Qingyao took the water bag stuffed by her little sister, whether it was a drink or not.
Mei Qingying was still urging her persistently: "Brother, drink it, it tastes good, it's really good!"
Qiao Huaping's smile deepened a little deeper, and she finally spoke leisurely: "Yao Yao, as a human being, it's a good thing to be on guard against others. But, you misunderstand others again and again, right?
You also need to reflect on yourself?... Be more open-minded and don’t always have persecution paranoia and feel that everyone is going to harm you."
Mei Qingyao was still an eight-year-old child, no match for an old and cunning adult like Qiao Huaping. He turned red when Qiao Huaping spoke to him, was dumbfounded, and was a little unwilling: "But, but before you -"
"Oh, you also said it was before. Before is before. People always change." Qiao Huaping changed her expression to a more serious expression, "I treated you badly in the past, and I apologize to you, and you should also do the same."
You can see that I don't just talk with words, I also try to show it with actions, right? Yaoyao, as a human being, you have to look at the development pattern of things dialectically. You should not always completely deny everything about me. Yes.
Isn’t that right? - Without further ado, let’s start with the water in the water bag. Do you think I did something in the water?”
After saying this long series of words, Mei Qingyao's heart jumped suddenly and her face turned red like a monkey's butt.
He felt that what Qiao Huaping said seemed to make some sense.
After just two days, Qiao Huaping's performance was indeed completely different from before.
He subconsciously asked Mei Qingyu, the smartest second brother, for help. As a result, Mei Qingyu thoughtfully took the water bag from Mei Qingyao's hand, first smelled it, and then drank a few sips, showing a somewhat...
He looked shocked, but also a little confused, and said in a deep voice: "Brother, this water... is really delicious, and after drinking it, I feel as if the heat all over my body has been taken away."
Mei Qingyao was extremely shocked: "So amazing?!"
Mei Qinghuang hurriedly came over: "Let me take a sip, let me take a sip!"
Mei Qinghuang took the water bag and drank a few gulps. He was so shocked. The little guy looked at Qiao Huaping, his eyes full of disbelief: "Really, it tastes so good?! You, you do it?"
of?"
Qiao Huaping smiled proudly and raised her chin: "Thank you!"
She looked at Mei Qingyao again with a smile: "You have a drink too. If it tastes good, should you say something to me?"
Mei Qingyao gritted his teeth, took the water bag from his brother's hand, and raised his head to drink like a strong man.
As a result, after these few mouthfuls, he fell into a trance!
It’s really delicious!
Qiao Huaping looked like she was looking forward to what Mei Qingyao would say, waiting for Mei Qingyao to speak.
Mei Qingyao closed her eyes and said, "I misunderstood you about the water. I'm sorry!"
Qiao Huaping was a little surprised that Mei Qingyao, the upright and fiery little eldest brother and the child who was most wary of her, actually apologized to her.
Qiao Huaping's smile deepened.
She was smiling.
Mei Qingyao was already mentally prepared that Qiao Huaping would take the opportunity to ridicule him. She was gritting her teeth and closing her eyes, preparing to be ridiculed, when she unexpectedly received a cold hand.
The hand gently touched his head.
On such a hot day, Qiao Huaping's hand had a hint of coolness, which made Mei Qingyao stunned.
Qiao Huaping came over with a smiling voice: "Yao Yao, you are a good boy."
Nothing else was said.
Mei Qingyao's face instantly turned red like a monkey's ass.
…
In this long fleeing team, many people slowly fell behind under the scorching heat.
The village chief had no choice but to ask the young and middle-aged men to shout and spread the news that there was a shady patch of land ahead. When they got there, they would collectively repair it.
Although this was a bit of a wish to quench thirst, it finally brought a glimmer of hope to the team that was overwhelmed by the sweltering heat.
The long fleeing team moved forward slowly, and finally, less than half an hour later, they arrived at the shady place the village chief had mentioned.
This shady area is under a protruding cliff. The terrain is special. There are many wild fruit trees growing lushly. The fruits are very sour and inedible at the moment, but the shade of the wild fruit trees is quite refreshing.
Blocked a lot of the sun.
Every household in Liujin Village looked for the shade of a tree, leaned there, and sat down to rest.
Some older people couldn't bear the scorching heat. The only doctor in the village was already busy treating people.
