Hearing what Chen Xiaomei said, the bandits repeatedly promised: "We will never continue to do such evil things. To be honest, our families don't even know we are doing this outside."

And we also have rules in this business. For example, for those who are old, weak, sick, and disabled, we only charge them a few copper coins, and some do not accept them at all and let them pass directly.

We only ask for more when we meet the kind of rich people, but now we realize our mistake and ask the heroes to help us arrange a job, and we will definitely do it well."

Seeing their sincere attitude, Chen Xiaomei chose to believe them.

She felt that these people were just misplaced and their strengths were not found for a while.

At this time, Chen Xiaomei looked at the sky. It was going to be dark soon. She originally planned to rush to the next city while it was dark. She could find an inn to stay overnight, but after being delayed here for so long, she would definitely not be able to make it now.

Then I had to sleep outside all night!

Chen Xiaomei just looked up at the sky when she was spotted by the bandit leader. The bandit leader quickly said: "My boss, I wonder where you are going?

If you go further, you still have to walk a hundred miles before you can find a village, and it won't be convenient for you to travel at night. If you don't mind, just make do with us."

"Where do you live?"

"We are on the mountain, about 10 miles away from here. There are not many families here. Please rest assured, boss, since I plan to follow you and work hard, I will definitely not lie to you.

If you can trust me, follow me back. Then I will prepare two houses at home for you to live in."

Chen Xiaomei still believes in this. She can also see that these people are actually very kind at heart. Since they have promised to give them a buddy, they must hope to use their strength to help her.

So Chen Xiaomei nodded: "Then I'll trouble you."

Tang Wu was worried about this, so he called out: "Master."

He was afraid that if these people were cheating, wouldn't he be falling into a trap if he followed them?

Chen Xiaomei shook her head at them to reassure them.

But they are all mountain roads, and their family lives at the foot of the mountain. So they have to go around this mountain to get to their house, because if they climb the mountain, the carriage cannot go, so they have to take a long way around.

Chen Xiaomei asked the bandit leader to lead the way. Only then did the bandit leader remember something and said, "My name is Li Datou. My boss can just call me Datou."

Chen Xiaomei took a look at the fat-headed and big-eared bandit in front of her, and felt that the name was very suitable for his appearance!

The mountain road is indeed difficult to walk, and the road is extremely narrow, and the carriage will pass by.

The group of people hurriedly hurried and slowly arrived home after dark.

Li Datou's family lives in a dilapidated thatched house with only two rooms, a kitchen and a utility room.

Li Datou pushed open the fence door and heard a woman's voice coming from inside the house: "Dad, why did you come back? You must be hungry, I left some food for you."

After the results came out, I was shocked to see so many people. I quickly pulled Li Datou aside and asked, "What are these people doing? Are you in trouble?"

Li Datou smiled and said to his daughter-in-law: "Without me, what trouble can be caused? These people are here to stay. They only stay for one night. And they said they can also find me a job."

After hearing this, Li Datou's wife looked over here doubtfully. Just now, Chen Xiao didn't see clearly. Now that she was closer, Chen Xiaomei saw that Li Datou's wife had a big belly.

It looks like it should be seven or eight months old.

At this time, Wei Xiaoke hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Sister-in-law, we are here to stay for the night. Don't worry, we will give you money. Just help us get some food and get us two rooms."

Can."

After handing over 5 taels of silver, Chen Xiaomei could see that the pregnant woman was very tired, so she quickly said: "We can cook by ourselves. I see that my sister-in-law is working hard too, so I won't bother her."

At this time, Li Datou's wife felt a little embarrassed. If she had just taken the five taels of silver and didn't have to cook, she would feel really bad.

He quickly returned the 5 taels of silver to Chen Xiaomei and said, "Oh, what are you talking about? It's not easy to go out. As long as you don't dislike the poor conditions here.

Forget the money, you agreed to find a job for Datou, which is already good, I want to thank you very much."

At this moment, a childish voice suddenly came: "Mom, I'm so hungry."

After hearing this, Li Datou's wife quickly ran back to the house.

Li Datou scratched his head in embarrassment, and then he realized what he was doing and said quickly: "Stop standing outside. Go back into the house."

After saying that, the group of people walked into the house. After Chen Xiaomei entered the house, they saw the big-headed wife holding a little girl of three or four years old.

This little girl has a sallow complexion, is skinny and skinny, and has hair that looks like fur. She actually looks like a child over two years old.

The little girl was a little scared. When she saw so many strangers coming to her house, she was so frightened that she quickly crawled into her mother's arms.

Chen Xiaomei was really afraid that the little girl would touch her mother's belly. She reached out and touched it and took out a piece of pastry from her sleeve.

Passed it to the little girl, who swallowed after seeing the cake.

However, she did not reach out to take it, but turned to look at her mother, who was holding her in her arms.

Chen Xiaomei said to the big-headed wife: "Give it to the child. It's okay. I still have it here."

She said awkwardly: "How can this be done? You should keep it for yourselves."

Chen Xiaomei turned her head and asked Wei Xiaoke to go to the carriage and get all the remaining cakes.

Soon, a large bag of pastries was brought and placed directly on the table.

Chen Xiaomei gave a few yuan to the children and a few yuan to the big-headed wife.

The big-headed daughter-in-law resisted for a few times, but when she saw that Chen Xiaomei insisted on giving it to her, she accepted it with great gratitude.

After accepting the pastries, he put the little girl aside and insisted on cooking for them.

There is no food at home! There is only a handful of corn crumbs left, which is not enough to feed so many people.

The big-headed wife went to another neighbor's house to borrow some cornmeal. Then she made corn porridge for Chen Xiaomei and the others, stir-fried some wild vegetables, and bought some steamed buns.

Wei Xiaoke and An Ning were always helping while cooking, trying not to make the big-headed daughter-in-law busy!

But these are real people, and besides, she has been doing these tasks all the time! She feels bad after eating these pastries!

After the food was served, Li Datou rubbed his hands and said awkwardly:

"Master, we only have these things at home, so let's just have a bite today! I will go to town early tomorrow morning to buy some meat..."
