Chapter 132 Midnight Attack
Chapter 132 Midnight Attack
Shen Jiaojiao was already feeling some difficulty breathing, and He Laidie was pinching her chin with quite a bit of force, so the pain made her a little more awake.
He snatched the water bag from He Lai Di's hand, took a big gulp of water, and then swallowed the biscuit stuck in his throat.
"Cough cough cough~"
"Oh my god, Shen Jiaojiao~~you are wasting water!"
He Lai Di came back to her senses, snatched back the water bag, held it in her arms with heartache, and looked at Shen Jiaojiao with strong condemnation in her eyes.
Shen Jiaojiao covered her chest and looked at He Lai Di in shock, "Sister-in-law, isn't it just a little water? Can this little water be as important as me?"
Because my throat was stuck just now, my voice is a little hoarse now.
But I didn't expect that my second sister-in-law looked shocked. She looked me up and down with squinting eyes and said, "Little sister, what nonsense are you talking about!"
"If you were gone, we could save a lot of water and food, but if we were without water, our family wouldn't be able to survive for a few days."
Shen Jiaojiao choked, and she didn't know if it was because of the embarrassment she had just felt or because she was embarrassed. What was wrong with her second sister-in-law now?
He looked at Shen Dajiang with a wronged look on his face, "Dad..."
Shen Dajiang's eyes were heavy. "Jiaojiao, your second sister-in-law is right. You shouldn't waste water like this."
Tears welled up in Shen Jiaojiao's already red eyes, and she lowered her head and stopped talking.
He Lai Di curled the corners of her lips. This sister-in-law still can't see the situation clearly. She will suffer a great loss!
Shen Jiaojiao lowered her head and picked up her whole-grain biscuit and started to gnaw on it again. No one could see the gloom in her eyes.
The farce here did not attract the attention of the neighbors in the same yard, because the whole team had already had many quarrels regarding water issues, and it was not surprising that the old Shen family was making such a fuss now.
At midnight, a dagger quietly pried open the gate of the courtyard.
A few people tiptoed into the yard and looked around. There were only a cart and two cows in the yard. After making a gesture, they walked towards the rooms with a small piece of smoke in their hands.
There were also people on night watch in the team, but this yard happened to be within their blind spot of vision, and the two families in the yard did not leave their own family members to watch over the night, which resulted in no one noticing this scene.
Yang Chunyan was half asleep when she heard some noise outside the yard. She opened her eyes suddenly and woke up the old man beside her.
"Wake up, there's a thief!"
When the old man heard this, he subconsciously slapped his eldest son beside him to wake him up.
"what!"
The sound startled the man who was blowing the cigarette outside their house, and he immediately inhaled most of the cigarette in his hand.
"!"
When the people in Old Shen's family heard the sound, they all woke up. Smoke had been blown into their house, and a group of people inhaled the smoke without knowing it.
He Lai Di walked around the room and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that her food and water were still there. Then she felt a little dizzy. Suddenly, an idea flashed across her mind and she quickly went to open the door.
"Quick, come out, something is wrong in the room!"
Shen Jiaojiao opened her eyes, there was no trace of confusion in them, but she pretended to have just woken up. She was wearing a mask on her face and got up in a hurry.
Hearing the noise in the room, a dozen refugees rushed in from outside the yard and tried to untie the ropes that tied the cows. A group of refugees dragged the two cows out of the yard.
"What are you doing? Someone come quickly, there's a thief~"
As soon as He Lai Di walked out of the yard, she saw her cow being dragged by someone. It was almost to the gate of the yard. She was about to run over but was stopped.
A man rushed out from the side and punched her in the abdomen. She shrank to the ground like a shrimp.
"Hmm~"
She curled up on the ground, looking at the Shen family who rushed out, her eyes filled with anxiety. Hurry, the cow cannot be lost!
Shen Dajiang, Shen Changfeng and Shen Wensong rushed out, and a few more people came to block their way. In addition, they had just inhaled the smoke, so they were stopped in their tracks.
"Jiaojiao, hurry up, we can't lose the cow!"
"Dad, Jiaojiao knows, I will...ah!"
When Shen Jiaojiao heard this, she tripped when she stepped over the threshold.
Shen Changyou, who was in the room, also came out with a wooden stick in his hand. He didn't react in time and was tripped by Shen Jiaojiao who was lying on the ground.
He fell directly on Shen Jiaojiao, and the stick in his hand hit her head.
"what!"
The successive blows made Shen Jiaojiao roll her eyes and faint completely.
On the other side, Yang Chunyan's family was larger and had already rushed to the gate of the yard.
Although they did not inhale the smoke, there were too many refugees entering the yard and they were unable to do anything about them for a while.
At this moment, Shen Changyou dragged out two big swords with great effort and gave them to the people who were fighting with the refugees at the gate of the courtyard.
There were too many refugees, and everyone in the yard was injured to varying degrees. One refugee saw Shen Changyou's actions and slapped him away.
"what!"
"Ayou~"
When He Lai Di saw this scene, she immediately got up from the ground, endured the pain in her abdomen, and went to another room to get a knife.
"Puch~"
The sound of the knife entering the flesh made everyone silent for a moment. The other two members of the Shen family who were holding knives reacted and also raised their knives.
But at this time, the cow had already been pulled out the door, and I don’t know if the other people in the team heard it or why they didn’t come over for so long.
The battle in the yard was fierce, and both sides showed no mercy. Fortunately, the refugees were holding sticks. If they had been holding knives, everyone in the yard would have fallen down long ago.
Many refugees also took advantage of the situation to rush into the house to steal the food.
It took a cup of tea to see the cows being taken away, and He Laidie's hands were completely exhausted. At this time, the Sanli Village team finally arrived, holding torches.
A dozen refugees in the yard heard the noise and ran away in a hurry. They got a lot of good things tonight, which was enough for them.
When they came over, the two families were sitting in the yard with their heads down, looking as if they wanted to cry but had no tears.
Shen Liubai, the leader, saw this scene and coughed lightly to hide his embarrassment.
It’s not that they don’t want to come, but the main thing is, what if they come and their yard is also robbed?
In the end, I thought that we were all in the same team, so I dragged it out and gathered more than ten people from here and there.
Seeing the people sitting in the yard, the wounds on their faces looked very serious under the light of the torches. Shen Changfeng and Shen Dajiang's faces were covered in blood, and no one knew where they were injured.
Especially since both of them were lying on the ground with pale faces, they looked like they would not live long.
"Hurry up and help me treat the wound. We still have to travel tomorrow!"
"That's not right. There are a wrong number of people in this yard. Shen Jiaojiao and Shen Changyou are not here!"
