There is a little cute baby in the family, fleeing famine is not enough to get rich and busy

Chapter 72 I want to find water

If you don't want to return to what you don't want, Yimeng still knows what the little white snake means, that is to take it out to find the water source.

As soon as he got out of the space, he felt the little white snake on his wrist loosen. Yi Meng hurriedly lowered his voice and said, "It's still dark, you can't move, you can leave in the daytime."

Hearing that, the little white snake was really wrapped around Yi Meng's wrist again.

Such a well-behaved and obedient little snake made Yi Meng's uneasiness dissipate a lot.

Of course, it would be even better if it wasn't a poisonous snake.

Back in the team, Yi Meng lay down beside Quan Quanjin, and soon fell into a deep sleep.

As soon as it was dawn the next day, everyone got up one after another.

The children are still sleeping, but the adults are not in a hurry to wake up the children of each family.

Taking advantage of the cool weather, every household seized the time to boil water and heat up the remaining dry food at home.

At the end of the day, that is, you can only eat some hot food in the morning and evening.

It's still just dry pancakes and water. Unlike dinner, breakfast has a little more pickles.

If you don't eat something salty, everyone's strength will not be able to keep up, and you won't have the strength to push the carts on the next road.

The Qi family can't cook any new dishes now, they are all the same as those in the village, so there is no need for Yi Meng to cook.

Yi Meng covered the little ones in the family with quilts, and found Quan Jin.

Quan Quanjin was currently discussing with several strong men and the village chief how to take the next journey.

The village chief meant to bypass the village and leave close to the foot of the mountain.

But Quan Quanjin thought that he would rush into the mountains.

Although the danger is more, there is also a chance to find something to eat.

Not to mention prey or anything, even wild vegetables and the like are fine.

After all, although each household has a lot of food, it is not always the case to eat dry pancakes every day.

When they were arguing, Yi Meng came over.

"Daughter-in-law, why are you here?"

When Quan Quanjin saw his daughter-in-law, his originally stern face instantly softened.

Yi Meng, the village head and others nodded, and then said to Quan Jin: "Brother Jin, I see that there is not much water at home, so I want to find out if there is any water source nearby before I leave."

The man who was punched by Qi Manman yesterday immediately turned black: "Looking for water? If water is so easy to find, we wouldn't be saving water these days."

Yi Meng was not happy with the other party's attitude, but thinking of her daughter's performance yesterday, she still held back her unhappiness and said lightly: "I didn't find it, how did I know I couldn't find it? Besides, no one in that village left the village. Meaning, what does this mean?"

"What's the problem? Do you still want to say that there is water on this mountain, so they have water to eat?"

The strong man immediately sneered and retorted.

Yi Meng didn't want to talk to this person anymore, so she directly said to the village chief: "Uncle village chief, it's true that people in the village have wells. But they don't want to leave, so there must be a lot of water in the well."

"This shows that there is still water in the ground, and the forest is still green, which means that the plants should not be so short of water. So I thought about looking around, and if I found water, everyone can pretend to be some, even if If we can’t find it, we just need to come back before the team leaves, and we won’t delay today’s journey.”

This remark was thought of by Yi Meng before going to bed last night.

She is a woman who wants to go into the mountains alone to find water, which obviously doesn't work, and even if she finds it, she won't be able to get much back by herself.

At that time, you will have to toss back and forth, which is a waste of time.

The village chief didn't speak, but looked at Quanjin.

Qi Qijin also felt that there should be water sources in the mountains and forests, but they haven't found them yet.

Now that it was brought up by his own daughter-in-law, it is even more impossible for him to refute his daughter-in-law's face at this time.

So Qi Qijin said: "I think you can try it. Village head, how about this? I will take a few people to look for it. If we can't find it, we will come back as soon as possible."

Seeing that Quanquan Jin said the same thing, the village chief nodded: "Okay, then you can see who you are taking!"

The strong man just said immediately: "I'm not going! There are so many people in the village, and the people in the village are not easy to mess with. What if the men in the village are not here and come here to bully people?"

This is also a problem.

Qi Quanjin didn't get angry with the other party, and looked directly at the other people: "What do you mean by brothers? If you stay, then I will ask others if they are willing to go."

Several other people looked at the strong man who spoke, the meaning was obvious, and they didn't want to do useless work.

Quan Quanjin didn't embarrass everyone, so he went to ask the villagers.

Many people in the village can only support this day with water storage.

But when they heard that they were going to search for water in the mountains, everyone felt that the possibility of finding it was not high, so they all lacked interest.

Seeing that no one was willing to follow, Qi Quanjin went back to his home: "Big Brother, Third Brother, and Fifth and Sixth Brothers, follow me to find water. Second Brother, you and our father will take care of the house."

"to make."

Qi Ercai had no objection.

He is quick-witted, but in terms of strength, except for Min Quanli, he is really inferior to other brothers in the family.

Qi Dalang heard it, and said quickly: "Fourth Uncle, let me go too! I am very strong."

Qi Dalang is the eldest grandson of the Qi family. He is 16 years old this year, only one year younger than his uncle.

However, following his father Qi Dafu's strength, he is indeed a strong young man.

Quan Quanjin nodded without objecting.

When the villagers saw that the Qi family man had gone out to find someone, they were even more reluctant to move.

There is no way, whoever makes the Qi family have more boys, none of them can compare with the Qi family.

But just as they were about to leave, Ji Hu, the youngest son of the village chief, ran over with a bucket in his hand.

"Brother Qi, my father asked me to come and follow you. If I find water, I will run back to deliver news."

As Ji Hu said, he still didn't forget to bump the basket on his back.

Inside the basket was a large earthen jar, which was only a little smaller than the back basket, with a wooden lid on top.

Naturally, Quan Quanjin would not refuse.

He is also happy to have someone running errands to deliver messages.

It's just that when Yi Meng said that she would also follow, Qi Quanjin disagreed.

"Brother Jin, I used to travel to a lot of places, and I have seen a lot more. I can't guarantee that I can find water."

Yi Meng didn't dare to tell about the little white snake's ability to find water, so he could only take this matter on himself.

Qi Qijin still disagreed, and finally Qi Zheng said: "Let the fourth daughter-in-law follow! Several of you big men follow, if you can't even protect a woman, then you don't have to come back."

As soon as the old man opened his mouth, he immediately made a final decision on the matter.

Even if Quan Quanjin didn't want his daughter-in-law to follow suit, but now he can only agree.
