Escape from the Famine

Chapter 9 10. Down and Out
"Get out!" Chi Yu didn't bother to talk to him!Ever since Arthur started following her, you probably haven't seen her so downcast, right?

Chi Yu took the rabbit back to the woods, and the couple were anxiously waiting for her.

"Miss Yu'er, are you injured?" Aunt Li checked and was relieved to see that she was not injured.

Chi Yu threw the rabbit on the ground, smiled and shook his head, "I'm fine, I don't know how to do this, Aunt Li, I'll leave it to you."

It's too hard for her to pack this thing with one hand, how to cook it is a problem!
"Okay, okay! You didn't care about what happened to me just now, and you let our mother and I follow. We are already grateful! We will listen to you in the future! We will never stop you again!"

Aunt Li apologized for what she just did.

It's because she is too narrow-minded. If people are willing to take their great kindness with them, how can they not know how to be grateful?
"Miss Yu'er, leave the matter of cleaning up the rabbits to me."

Li Yi didn't say anything, and planned to speak with practical actions.

Chi Yu also felt that going on like this was not an option, so he said coldly: "Since we are traveling together, we must have a leader! From now on, you all listen to me. If you have any objections, you can go on your own!"

Chi Yu turned around and leaned against the tree trunk, closing his eyes and resting his mind.

She had never felt so tired before. At that time, no one dared to refute her words.

look now?Aggrieved!
The coldness emanating from Chi Yu's body just now made the two of them tremble.

Li Yi silently picked up the rabbit and went to the stream to clean it up without saying a word.

Aunt Li saw that Chi Yu was changing the wrapped animal skins for the child, so she wisely didn't disturb her.

Find some twigs to prepare rabbit stew.

The baby slept all the way, finally woke up, and saw that he was lying in his mother's arms, with happy eyebrows and eyes.

"Mother." The baby leaned against Chi Yu's arms.

Chi Yu touched his forehead, and it was fine that he didn't have a fever. It seemed that he had absorbed the nutrient solution well.

"Is baby hungry?"

Chi Yu asked Arthur to put the nutrient solution in two porcelain bottles so that the nutrient solution would not be too obtrusive.

"Hungry." The baby's eyes are full of pond fish, and he can't see anything else.

Chi Yu found that he was still weak, and his whole body was as soft as noodles, so he raised his hand to touch the few pitiful hairs on his head.

The hair is withered and yellow, and the sparse ones can't cover the scalp.

The child's weakness made her feel distressed.

Maybe it's a mother-son bond!Chi Yu didn't reject the little guy's closeness at all.

The little guy didn't realize that his mother had changed the core.

"Then let's have a drink."

Chi Yu fed him the nutrient solution little by little.

Aunt Li had already started the fire and saw that the child had woken up, "Miss Yu'er, is the child hungry? I still have an egg here, give it to the child first."

This is still the eggs given to them by the fish, and they are not willing to finish them.

She was also embarrassed by her selfishness just now.

Why should a girl's family support them?

It is a kindness to be able to go on the road together!

Chi Yu shook his head, "Aunt Li, this child is too weak to digest eggs. I specially prepared the nutrient solution for him. He can only drink this now."

Chi Yu showed her the porcelain bottle.

"That's fine! The child is weak now, and it's good to drink some liquid food."

Aunt Li didn't understand what nutrient solution was, and thought it was something like liquid food.

With the lesson she learned just now, Aunt Li will never refute Chi Yu again, and she won't ask any more questions.

Chi Yu was also pleased with Aunt Li's sense of humor, this Aunt Li is a sensible person.

The little guy glanced at Aunt Li curiously, then continued to look at Chi Yu.

Looking at Chi Yu as if afraid of her disappearing suddenly.

"Girl Yu'er, can I make some soup for this rabbit?"

Aunt Li took the packed rabbit from her son and asked Chi Yu for his opinion.

"Aunt Li, I don't know much about cooking, but you can make up your own mind about cooking in the future."

She really doesn't know how to cook, and there are many methods of cooking in the ancient earth in her mind, which she hasn't practiced yet.

"Okay! You take a break, and I'll go to stew right away."

Aunt Li happily started chopping rabbits.

When the two of them went out, they took all the pots and pans with them, but now there is only one clay pot, two bowls and a kitchen knife left.

Aunt Li found a tree stump and chopped the rabbit into small pieces on it.

Li Yi took the rabbit winkingly and went to the stream to wash the rabbit meat before putting it in the pot to stew.

Aunt Li was not willing to use the water in the bag, so she went to the upper stream to get some water to stew the rabbit.

They have the medicinal solution mixed with pond fish in the water, so they are not afraid that the stream water will be unclean.

The rabbit meat was light and stewed in clear water, so Aunt Li took some ginger grass and threw it into the clay pot to cook together.

Chi Yu was feeding the children nutrient solution, Li Yi lit the fire, and their small team performed their duties.

At first they did not attract the attention of others, the smell of stewed rabbits wafted out, and the refugees resting in the distance began to move around.

Seeing that there was only one man among them, and the rest were women, children and children, they became bolder.

"Hand over your meat!"

At this time, two strong men surrounded Chi Yu and the others with a dozen of them.

Li Yi protected his mother and Chi Yu behind him, and his legs were trembling with fright when he saw the fierce man in front of him.

"Why, why give it to you? Don't all of you elders go find food by yourself?"

Li Yi pointed a fire stick at the people who came, these vicious people almost scared him to the point of peeing his pants.

If he had given up his food in the past to save his life, now it was different, as if there was a fish in the pond, he felt that he also had courage in him, and couldn't help but glanced back at the fish in the pond, and found that she was sitting there without looking at her. move.

He swallowed hard, what should he do next?
"Hahahaha! Only your small body can stop me? If you are sensible, hand over the meat!"

The brawny man also wanted to show courtesy first and soldiers later.

If they don't go up and grab it.

Chi Yu was still concentrating on feeding the baby the nutrient solution. After drinking the small bottle of nutrient solution, the little guy's energy improved.

"Baby, someone wants to rob us of our food, mother will go and beat the bad guy away, will you be obedient?"

She would not let go of the child, so she had to wrap it in animal skin again and hang it on her chest.

The baby heard that he was going to beat up bad people, so he nestled in Chi Yu's arms obediently, covering his face from looking at those people.

Chi Yu picked up the kitchen knife at the side and pushed Li Yi away. What nonsense are you talking about at this time?
If you can do it, don't make any noise!

Apart from anything else, Chi Yu waved a kitchen knife with one hand and played with afterimages.

shhhhh--

There were many pieces of hair and clothes flying in the air.

The dozen or so people led by the strong man, no matter men, women or children, felt a chill all over.

what--

Looking at myself again, there are only two rags covering the spring.

The women huddled together and shivered behind their men.

The men hugged their chests together, like women from good families being molested.

The leading man was trembling with anger, "You are shameless!"
