Chapter 16 What is our home address?

"Here we come." Zeng Shuangyan walked over happily and started to add a piece of wood. Thinking of what happened to her today, she couldn't help complaining, "Dad, I met an unreasonable woman today. I couldn't help it." I had a big fight with her and it really pissed me off.”

Zeng Chusheng kept cutting the meat and took a moment to look at his daughter and asked, "How can you be so unreasonable?"

Zeng Shuangyan became angry when she mentioned this matter. She threw the firewood on the ground with a bang and said, "I went to the river to wash clothes and saw an edible fruit on the way back. That place is relatively remote."

"I reached out to pick it, and then a woman suddenly rushed out and shouted at me, telling me not to pick the thing she had noticed first."

"If she liked it first, why didn't she pick it in the first place? So I suspect she said this on purpose just to keep the fruit for herself."

"I've seen this kind of people too many times. I scold every one I see."

"In the end, we had a big fight and one of us stole half of it. She was too much."

Zeng Chusheng: "What if she really liked it first?"

Zeng Shuangyan: "If that's true, but she left again, that fruit is wild and has no owner. Whoever picks it first belongs to whoever picks it first."

Zeng Chusheng: "Wild things only truly belong to you when you get them into your hands. So theoretically, the fruit is still hanging on the tree and does not belong to you yet."

"You saw it one after the other. You each picked half of it based on your ability. There is no big problem. Now, don't be too angry."

"Survival here depends on our ability. We picked up food and we have to protect our own things. If we can't, we have no choice but to accept our fate."

"Yanyan, if you think more openly, your mood will be smoother. You don't need to worry so much about some things."

"I understand." Zeng Shuangyan nodded angrily and clenched his fists vigorously.

She was still so angry.

Zhou Shitang and the other three walked out of Zeng's house without knowing which direction they went, and stood there looking at each other.

None of them have been to this place,
Zhou Yancheng turned his gaze to Su Huaili without showing any confusion. He spoke in a kind tone, "Ah Huai, do you know the road?"

Su Huaili's eyes were honest, "I don't know him."

Zhou Shitang blinked, "Have you lived here for three years and not wandered around?"

"How do you know that I have lived here for three years?" Su Huaili was confused. He had never seen Miss Zhou in the capital before. He had been with the father and daughter today. Uncle Zhou should not have guessed his identity. Tell Miss Zhou.

It doesn't matter whether he has status or not, he is a first-class criminal now.

Zhou Shitang said sincerely: "I guessed it, but I didn't expect that I guessed it right."

Su Huaili said, not bothering about this matter, "Prisoners have to work for the government. After finishing the work, I will go to the mountains to find food. I don't want to waste time here."

"We have very little time to move around freely, and we have to earn hard money. I want to spend my time wisely."

They have had enough of the hard life of the past three years, and they don't know how many more years they will stay here. Is there any hope for them to leave this place?
Forget it, don’t think about it anymore, let’s live the life in front of us first.

Zhou Shitang understood.

Zhou Yancheng said: "Let's find someone to ask."

Zhou Shitang walked around and saw no one, "Do you want to go back and ask Uncle Zeng? He has lived here for a long time and should know where we live."

Zhou Yancheng had this intention.

Su Huaili also thinks this method is feasible.The three of them turned around and prepared to walk back.

Chu Fu came out with the pork. When he saw Zhou Yancheng and the others, his pace quickened, "Brother Zhou, where are you going?"

Zhou Yancheng turned around, saw it was Chu Fu, and saw what he was holding. Then he remembered that he had taken the pork given by Zeng Chusheng and left. He seemed to have forgotten about the exchange of pork with Chu Fu.

Zhou Yancheng smiled: "Didn't we come to this place not long ago? I haven't been here before. I don't know the way back. I wanted to find someone to ask. Brother Chu, you just came out. We don't have to go. Ask someone else."

"Then you have just asked the right person. I have lived here for so many years. I can't say that I know everything about this place, but I still know the general location." Chu Fu handed the pork over, "What is your home address?"

Zhou Yancheng took the pork, turned to look at Zhou Shitang, winked, and conveyed the message with his eyes: What is our home address?

Zhou Shitang was confused, and she blinked: I don't know either.

She walked such a long and long way to Lingnan. She was completely disabled. When she came here, she was tortured by the living environment here.

After finally figuring out that she had to work hard to live without giving up her fighting spirit, she cheered up again, but it was still very painful and desolate.

How could she have the leisure and grace to inquire about the address?

All she knew was that she lived near a mountain forest.

Zhou Shitang looked up at Chu Fu and introduced seriously, "Our family has two thatched houses, and there is a simple kitchen in front of the house that was built not long ago."

That kitchen was built with great effort by her own mother. Life was really not easy.

It was also at that moment that she realized deeply that the beautiful life of hugging each other no longer existed.

Chu Fu: "..."

What address is this?

He thought about it carefully and found that many houses had two thatched houses. This hilltop was huge and these houses were everywhere.

Chu Fu looked at Zhou Shitang seriously and asked, "Is there anything special around your house? Maybe I've seen it."

Zhou Shitang thought about it carefully, "It's strange to say that it's a lonely place with no neighbors around. You have to walk quite far to see other houses. Unlike Uncle Chu, your house is next door to Uncle Zeng's house."

After hearing this, Chu Fu's eyes suddenly widened with a look of horror on his face, "Why did you live in that place?"

Zhou Shitang was puzzled, "It was assigned by the government. Is there anything wrong with that place?"

"Yes! The problem is serious!" Chu Fu nodded heavily, feeling full of pity for the Zhou family. He couldn't help but say a few more words, "Many people died in that place. Whoever lived in it died. Some He died within a year or two, or within a few months.”

"No one dares to go near that place. You are a bit unlucky. Why did you get assigned to that evil place?"

Zhou Shitang frowned.

Haunted?
Su Huaili then remembered that he had heard about this matter before, but he didn't take it to heart. He didn't expect that he would encounter it today.

He doesn't believe in ghosts and gods, someone must be causing trouble.

Zhou Yancheng's expression suddenly became serious, "Did he die from exhaustion or was he killed?"
