Chapter 46: Temporary rest
Chapter 46 Temporary Rest
Ye Anlan folded her arms around her chest, "It's good that you have a kind heart, but you have to understand that you can't even take care of yourself now, and you don't have the ability to lend a helping hand to others."
"As for me. Although I don't mind protecting you within my ability, if you don't know how to measure and want to use your own standards to measure or restrain me while sheltering me, then I advise you to find another way out as soon as possible. "
Pei Huaixiu's face was a little ugly.
Ye Anlan did not soften her heart at all, she continued:
"Don't think my words are ugly. In order to avoid unnecessary disputes in the future, I think it is necessary for us to speak ugly words first."
"No matter how sympathetic you are, it has nothing to do with me, but if you want to go to Yuyang County with us, then you must act according to my rules."
"I don't ask much of you."
"First, I hope you all know what it means to do what you can, and you must also distinguish between close and distant."
"Even if you don't tell me, within the scope of my ability, I will save people who can be saved, such as you and Qingchun. But you have to understand that I am not a god, and I cannot save everyone."
"Also, if the price of my helping others is to hurt me or my companions, then I will choose to stand by without hesitation."
"Second, I hope you understand that in a team, there can only be one person responsible for making decisions, and in our team, this person can undoubtedly only be me."
"I know myself better than you, the strength of my companions, and the world and people's hearts, so please don't make decisions and act without authorization because of 'what you think'."
"You have to remember that our team should implement 'I think', not 'you think'."
Pei Huaixiu took a deep breath, "I remember."
As Ye Anlan said, he shouldn't cross the line, he shouldn't ask others to do what he doesn't have.
Ye Anlan was very satisfied, she gave Pei Huaixiu a smile, "Now that you understand it, let's go eat."
After she left, Qingchun asked Pei Huaixiu in a low voice, "Master, what do you mean by Miss Ye? If you insist on your own opinion, she won't give us food?"
Pei Huaixiu stroked her forehead speechlessly, "She won't deny us food, she'll just part ways with us."
Qing Chun: .
Qingchun clutched his little heart tightly, "Fortunately, young master, you figured it out."
Pei Huaixiu smiled wryly, "If I didn't have the experience of that period of time before, I might have argued for it."
Moreover, he is not selfish. If he weighed his brother against these refugees, he would choose his brother without hesitation.
Just like before, didn't he give up the family that raised him without hesitation, and would rather choose the drastic method of tearing face off with the family, and leave the family to find his brother?
With him like this, what right does he have to ask others to be impartial?
***
On the seventh day of heading southeast, Ye Anlan and the others were forced to stop.
Ye Tang, the youngest child of the Ye family, has been feeling unwell since the fifth day, and by the seventh day, he can only lean on Ye Wei's arms drowsily for most of the time.
The fatigue caused by the rush, the weakened immunity caused by poor eating and sleeping, and the fright suffered by refugees on the road due to conflicts and starvation everywhere, these cannot be solved by a few pills or bowls of soup.
She needs a relatively stable environment and needs a good rest.
"There is a relatively wealthy village in front, called Wangjiatun. We can live there for a while." Ye Anlan, who was in charge of exploring the way, finally found a suitable place for Ye Tang to cultivate, and immediately ran back to find Ye Jinkui and the others. up.
The Wangjiatun she was talking about was a large village located on a flat mountain top that had been built into a cottage by the villagers.
Ninety percent of the residents in this village are surnamed Wang, who is also the head of the Wang clan in Lizheng. He is very prestigious in the village.
The world is too chaotic. Wangjia Village, which used to be xenophobic, now hardly allows outsiders to enter the village.
If Ye Anlan hadn't secretly slipped twenty taels of small-value banknotes into Lizheng, and on the surface offered another ten taels of silver to rent the yard, Lizheng would not have allowed them to temporarily rest for a few days in the empty house on the edge of the village.
She took Ye Jinkui and others into the village, and then sent away several villagers who were sent by Lizheng to help them clean the yard and house with two copper coins.
By the way, she also bought a basket of eggs and two boards of tofu from the aunt who helped them clean up the house.
Auntie never expected that there would be people buying tofu from their house during the new year, and with the set money from Ye Anlan, Auntie was so happy that she couldn't see her teeth.
Sending the aunt away, Ye Anlan found Li Shi and told her about buying eggs and tofu, "The eggs will be delivered later, you can make an egg custard for the younger sister first, and then cook a bowl of noodles for her soup."
Seeing Ye Wei who was guarding Ye Tang anxiously, Ye Anlan said again: "Don't let others down, you can take out a bag of the white flour we brought, whether it's pancakes or steamed buns, we'll eat them all tonight better."
Mr. Li nodded, "Mother understands."
Ye Anlan said again: "Then I'll go out for a walk, father and Fengshou are still the old rules."
When Zheng Fengshou heard this, he immediately climbed up to the roof with hands and feet, "Don't worry, big sister, I will protect everyone."
Yang Xiaotao took a step forward, "Girl, I'll go with you. I know a lot of wild vegetables. If I encounter them, I can dig them up for everyone to eat fresh."
Yang Xiaomei: How can there be any wild vegetables at this time?
Ye Anlan glanced at Yang Xiaotao, who was eager to try, "All right, I will follow you if I want to."
She took Yang Xiaotao to the old doctor in the village.
Although the old doctor's medical skills are not very good, the medicinal materials at home are very complete. The few herbs that Ye Anlan wants, the old doctor has more or less stored here.
Ye Anlan paid the silver, took the medicine bag, and bought two old hens along the way to cook the soup.
Walking around this time, Ye Anlan has a rough idea of the overall situation of the village.
The two of them deliberately chose the opposite direction from when they came, and slowly walked back. As they walked, Yang Xiaotao actually found a very simple thatched cottage not too far from their temporary residence.
The thatched cottage was low, dark, and far away from the village, almost built next to the field.
Yang Xiaotao caught sight of the young man sitting in front of the thatched hut, gnawing on something, and was immediately shocked by how desolate he was.
She reached out and pulled Ye Anlan, "Girl, look at that person."
Ye Anlan glanced over, and then turned a corner directly.
She walked up to the man, "Brother, are you also from Wangjiatun?"
The man raised his head numbly, "You, who are you?"
"We are passers-by living in the village." Ye Anlan smiled and stood beside the other party, "I am Ye Anlan, and she is Yang Xiaotao. I don't know what to call this big brother?"
The young man shrank his hands a little awkwardly, "I, I call Gouzi."
