Chapter 8: Her safety awareness is quite strong.
The cold light came from the place where the villagers gathered in front.
Ling Xin looked over and saw Li Cuilan, sandwiched in the crowd, looking at her with murderous eyes.
How could she show weakness?
The look she gave was cold.
In a flash, Li Cuilan hurriedly withdrew her gaze and dared not look at her.
Ling Xin continued to change Qibao's diaper.
Qibao's body was blocked by a big tree, and no one except her family could see it.
She was not worried about her diaper being discovered.
Their family was weak, and the villagers avoided them as much as possible. No one wanted to get involved with them, so naturally they would not take the initiative to come and hold the child.
Even if he was held, the chance of pulling down his pants to see was very small.
As for the family members… it is not easy for parents to communicate, so they will not ask.
The children were smart and knew not to ask or say anything.
Half an hour later, the sound of gongs rang out, and the village chief Lin Jiade shouted loudly: "In another half an hour, we will reach the official road. There are many refugees on the official road. Everyone should keep an eye on your own things and children. If your things are robbed and your children are lost, no one can help you find them back..."
The villagers immediately became nervous and started checking their carts and bamboo baskets behind them, and reminded their children not to run too far.
The mighty team set off and soon reached the official road.
There were really a lot of people on the official road, almost all of them in groups.
They probably all know that it is impossible to survive on the road of fleeing famine alone.
Ling Xin also reminded the little ones to stay in the cart as much as possible, especially Dabao.
Dabao is sensible and walked almost all the way by himself.
Sometimes he would slow down when he got tired.
Fortunately, Ling Xin watched him closely and carried him to the cart when she saw that he was tired.
"Mom, if I stay still in the cart obediently, will I have some candy?" Sibao, who was eating milk candy for the first time, longed for the taste that made him unable to stop.
This little thing was also smart.
Knowing that they were some distance away from the villagers ahead, he spoke in a low voice.
"If you are obedient, you will have candy every day!" Ling Xin was naturally willing to feed them.
There were plenty milk candies, fruit candies and chocolates in the space.
Yu Qiuxia heard that if she was obedient, she would get candy. She trotted over to Ling Xin and looked at her obediently: "Xinxin, mother is also obedient and doesn't run around!"
Ling Xin: "..." Who can stand this! ?
So cute!
She found that this mother was very fluent in talking about anything related to food.
She quickly stuffed a piece of fruit candy into her mother's mouth.
Seeing that there were more refugees, Ling Xin quickly fed each of them a piece of fruit candy and caught up with the team in front.
In the morning, they were only a few dozen of meters away from the villagers. Now they were too far away and were afraid that they would be noticed.
The weather in the afternoon was getting hotter.
The refugees on the official road dragged their tired bodies and walked with difficulty.
The people of Linjia Village were slightly better off on the first day of fleeing famine.
The village chief saw that the refugees were staring at them covetously, so he didn't dare to stop even though he was tired.
They had just started to flee, and the supplies on the cart made the refugees who had been fleeing for many days envious and jealous.
Ling Xin naturally noticed the refugees' unfriendly looks.
Seeing that the children were wilting one by one, she didn't even dare to take out the water bag to give them water.
She bet that once she took out the water bag, these refugees would dare to rush forward to snatch it.
As expected!
Suddenly, there was a scream from the front, followed by the curse of Widow Wang: "You damn thing, you actually came to snatch my water bag, give it back to me!"
She was very thirsty and took out her water bag because she couldn't stand it any longer.
But before she could drink it, it was snatched away by the refugees who were watching her from a distance.
She wanted to snatch it back, but they just gulped it down into his mouth.
He had only taken two sips when it was snatched away by another refugee...
"Wuwuwuwu...my water!" Widow Wang burst into tears, wanting the men in the same village to snatch it back for her.
But no one stood up for her at the critical moment.
Widow Wang gritted her teeth, but she couldn't call for help by name.
"Mom...our water!" Wang Qiong was so anxious.
The river in the village dried up, so when they came out, they just filled this water bag with water.
The water was snatched away, what should they do next?
"Serves you right!" Some people have long been fed up with the widow's behavior.
She has seen her husband flirting with Widow Wang several times.
She was so relieved at this moment.
Widow Wang felt guilty, but she didn't want to suffer alone, so she pointed at Lin Er's bamboo basket and shouted, "My water is gone. Don't you have water in your basket? Give me some!"
Lin Er's family panicked and hurried to protect their bamboo basket.
Seeing this, the refugees around rushed to Lin Er's family and scrambled for the bamboo basket.
The bamboo basket was pulled and broken in an instant. Not only did the water bag fall out, but also the two-jin bag of inferior black coarse rice fell to the ground.
"You bunch of robbers..." As soon as the words came out, the refugees scattered, leaving only the broken bamboo basket on the ground.
Lin Erjia fell to the ground and began to cry: "My rice, my water... How can we live in the future? You are a slut who is ridden by thousands of people and has a heart of snakes and scorpions. Widow Wang, you will not die well, village chief..."
The village chief was walking at the front of the team and did not hear the noise at the back of the team.
Even if he heard it, he wouldn't want to care, and he couldn't afford to care.
These refugees are all desperate, he just wants his family to escape safely.
Other families have the same idea, no one wants to get into trouble.
Little do they know that only unity can provide a way out.
Seeing this, Dabao secretly put his little arm on his own bamboo basket.
Ling Xin: "..." You have a strong sense of safety.
It's just that you are so small...
After the commotion between the two families in front, Ling Xin's family soon surpassed them.
After more than an hour, she found that the little kids were already thirsty, but no one asked for water.
The scene just now scared them, and they all endured it because they didn't want their water bags to be snatched away.
Ling Zhifeng, who was pushing the cart, had chapped lips and his legs were shaking slightly.
If this goes on, he will definitely get heatstroke!
Ling Xin's consciousness entered the space, took out a large sports water bottle and hid it in her sleeves, and replenished herself with water first.
Then she reached out and picked up Liu Ya: "Liu Ya, are you hot?" She pretended to wipe the sweat off her face and quickly put the straw to Liu Ya's mouth.
Although Liu Ya is small, she is a clever little girl.
When the straw reached her mouth, she bit it subconsciously.
When the cool icy sugar water entered her mouth, her flushed little face relaxed.
After the little girl took a few sips, she obediently kissed her stepmother on the face.
The refugees not far away saw the deep love between the mother and daughter and were too lazy to continue watching them.
Next, Ling Xin picked up the children one by one and put them down one by one.
None of the babies who were put down said anything nonsense.
Finally putting Dabao down, Ling Xin just thought about how to feed his parents.
The adorable Yu Qiuxia took the initiative to stretch her face in front of her and waited to be fed.
Her face was facing upwards, yet she did not forget to block the view of the refugees on the other side of the road.
