After dressing as a superb old woman, I am bound to the power system
Chapter 50: Angry
He felt his clothes being pulled by someone, and when he looked down, he saw that it was his youngest son Duan Yutao.
"What's wrong?" Duan Mingjing asked angrily.
"Dad, is the water made from roasted bamboo very hard to drink?" Duan Yutao asked.
Duan Mingjing was a little angry when he heard this. What happened to this little son? Why did he specifically cause trouble for him?
"Nonsense, it tastes good!" Duan Mingjing said decisively.
Duan Yutao frowned and pouted slightly, imitating Duan Mingjing's expression and asked, "Then why are you drinking water like this, daddy? You don't look happy at all."
The child's innocent words and the 70% resemblance between the father and son's faces immediately made several other elders of the Duan family laugh. Qiao Lan was no exception. Duan Mingchen was the first to bear the brunt and laughed unkindly.
Duan Mingchen: "Second brother, look at you! Even children can't stand it anymore!"
His own son is causing trouble, and his younger brother is making fun of him!
Duan Mingjing was so angry that he couldn't do anything to them, so he angrily threw his sleeves away and drove behind the train!
Duan Yujin pulled his brother and warned him, "You can't do this again!"
"Dad will be angry?"
Duan Yutao was confused. He looked at the direction his father was leaving and asked, "Why is dad angry?"
"Well, you will know about this later!" Duan Yujin said in a tone of experience.
After packing their things, everyone continued walking towards the south.
Occasionally when passing by a bamboo forest, people would stop and cut bamboos to prepare in the car in case they couldn't find water again. They would still roast water and drink it at night.
There is enough food for the dozen or so members of the Duan family, but there is no water.
Even for fried rice, you need to soak the rice before frying.
Water is needed to make cakes. If there is not enough water, the dry cakes will get stuck in the throat. The Duan family came from Feng'an Town and prepared several jars of pickles. In the past, they would eat them with steamed buns and porridge.
The current situation is that I don’t dare to add too many pickles for fear of getting stuck in my throat.
At night, the howling wind blew in the woods, causing leaves and dust to fly all over the sky, and there were even more dark clouds.
It looks like it's going to rain heavily!
Seeing the rain, everyone cheered!
"There's water!"
"No need to worry about running out of water now!"
Although it's too wet to light a fire on a rainy day, it's even more miserable when there's no water.
After yesterday's humiliation, Duan Mingjing learned a lot today. He immediately approached Qiao Lan and said, "Mom, it's going to rain. I'm going to prepare some firewood."
"Go for it!"
Following Qiao Lan's instructions, Duan Mingjing walked briskly, like a bird out of its cage.
Other members of the Duan family also went to help.
The rain hasn't fallen yet, and everyone still doesn't dare to take a big drink of water. Even if they think about it, they can't do it. Almost every household doesn't have much water left.
I can only give everyone in the family two mouthfuls to moisten their throats and make do with the night.
The remaining water will have to be considered tomorrow.
Qiao Lan asked the system to secretly fill her teapot with water. She exchanged one point for a bottle of mineral water. It was very small, but it was enough for her to drink for a day.
Can the exchanged water be exploited?
Just when Qiao Lan called out the names of the children at home and was about to let them try it, the system suddenly appeared.
[Host, the system needs to remind you that the things redeemed by the system cannot be used by anyone other than you! If you insist on giving it, the points will be deducted a hundred times! A bottle of water will cost you 1 point, and giving someone else a sip will give you 100 points.
It’s gone.]
After Qiao Lan heard this, her thoughts immediately stopped.
Forget it, forget it!
She had better endure it. Before her life was at stake, she would drink it herself. If the Duan family was really going to die of thirst, she would definitely pull the system to force it to provide water.
They say they are a team! How can we play when the team members die of thirst and she is still alive? How do we expect her to strengthen the country?
But Qiao Lan has water to drink, so she doesn't have to compete with the Duan family for water.
Every time she poured water, she asked herself to do it and poured it into the water bag by herself.
After she poured the water, she poured water for the children in the car. She fooled around like this for two days, and no one noticed any problems.
In the middle of the night, when everyone was lying on the carriage, half asleep, they heard the sound of raindrops, like raindrops falling on the roof of the carriage, and the faint sound of horses braying.
Qiao Lan woke up vaguely for a while, and felt a lot more at ease listening to the voice. It would be nice if it rained!
If it rains, there will be water to drink!
When Qiao Lan woke up, the rain outside had stopped, and the sun had climbed to the east. It looked like a rare good weather.
I don't know how long it has been raining, but the soil has only been slightly wet.
Yesterday, many people put buckets, pots and pans outside to collect water when it rained at night.
The Duan family is no exception.
When Qiao Lan got off the carriage, the wooden barrels and basins placed next to the carriage were already filled with water from high to low.
The Duan family has several buckets, two are specially used to feed the horses, water and feed, and the other two are used for cooking and drinking water for the Duan family.
Duan Mingchen was now happily carrying the bucket to feed the horses.
But the horse never put its head into the bucket, and even exhaled at Duan Mingchen, as if he was disgusted.
Duan Mingqing came up and said, "Fourth brother, the horse doesn't drink water. Maybe it was full from the rain last night and can't drink anymore now."
"I know, third brother." Duan Mingchen put down the bucket and rubbed the horse's head. The horse took the opportunity to breathe in Duan Mingqing's face and bark a few more words.
Duan Mingchen was helpless, "I know, I know, it's time to eat!"
"Don't worry, I'll prepare it for you right away!"
The Duan family didn't have enough food, so the horses were fed some fresh weeds from the roadside instead of the original soybeans.
But it has to be mixed with beans, otherwise the horse will have no strength and will not be able to pull the cart.
In short, food is consumed much faster than Qiao Lan imagined.
As water was rare, the group was not in a hurry and started cooking soup and dry food in the early morning.
There was no water in the first two days, and some people had food but had no time to cook. Kuhaha ate some fried beans and rice that were hard. Many old people and children had their teeth broken from eating them, so they had no choice but to eat them slowly in their mouths.
It melted slowly.
It was rare to have water today, so I had some time to cook some soup.
After breakfast, everyone replenished the water they had been short of for several days and continued walking south.
Today is a rare sunny day. The group does not know when the river will come, and they do not dare to drink water freely.
As the road wound around until the afternoon, the trees on both sides of the road gradually became sparse, and everyone realized that they were about to walk out of the forest.
He Feng heard the commotion outside, opened the curtain of the carriage and took a look, then glanced at the scroll spread out on the table.
The road down there is no easier than the woods.
After leaving the forest, everyone was not as timid as before, especially when they saw the creek beside the mountain road.
Immediately, someone shouted excitedly, "There is water! There will be no shortage of water in the future!"
