Chapter 114: Parents' Heart

  When Wu Zhang returned to his wife and daughter, they ran over nervously, "Are you okay? I heard..."

  "It's okay." Wu Zhang quickly interrupted his wife, and then revealed the clothes under his clothes. Crab, "Look, what is this!"

  "Yeah, it's a crab!"

  The little girl clapped her hands excitedly when she saw the crab, "Daddy is so awesome!"

  "Of course!" Wu Zhang was naturally proud after hearing his daughter's words , "If it weren't for the cold weather, daddy could hunt some rabbits for you to eat."

  "Rabbits are so cute, why should you eat them." The little girl was a little confused.

  "Okay, don't bring out the greedy girl." Mrs. Wu interrupted them, "We don't have a pot, how can we cook crabs?"

  "Let's make a fire and just bake them!"

  After Wu Zhang finished speaking, he looked at his wife and daughter. Wearing thin clothes, "I'll go find the yamen servant to change some clothes."

  "Are they willing?" Mrs. Wu was a little worried, "Don't let them get sick of it and turn their backs on us."

  "So, let's eat first, let's Let's wait until the girl is full." Wu Zhang was also a little worried. Although he knew Xu Tian's character, other government officials were not necessarily as easy to talk to as Xu Tian.

  The family of three walked to a place with few people, but not far from the government officials, so that others would not grab it.

  Wu Zhang skewered the crabs into balls on sticks and grilled them over the fire. He was not idle after that.

  Since he only had a few crabs, it was impossible to get clothes from the government servants, so he wanted to do some handiwork.

  However, without a knife, he couldn't weave bamboo products, so he got some vines and made a rattan chair or rattan bag.

  The main thing is to make something practical that other people can use, otherwise the government officials will not accept it at all.

  "Daddy, the crab is red, it's turning red!"

  The little girl squatted by the fire, her little face turned red. She stared at the crab and clapped her hands happily when she saw it turn red.

  Wu Zhang made a small bowl with vines, then made chopsticks, put the cooked crabs in the bowl, broke the shells into pieces, and took out the meat inside.

  Mrs. Wu was also standing by, taking out all the meat from the crabs and pouring them into the little girl's bowl.

  "Dad, Mom, you guys eat too!"

  The little girl handed over the bowl and asked her parents to eat too, but Wu Zhang shook the crab shell in his hand.

  "Daddy has already eaten, you should eat quickly!"

  Mrs. Wu said the same, "Mom is here too, girl, eat quickly, it won't taste good when it's cold."

  The little girl looked at the crabs in her father's and mother's hands suspiciously . Shell, when Wu Zhang saw this, he felt like grabbing the crab shell and sucking it.

  Seeing her father eating with such relish, the little girl no longer had any doubts, but she still picked up another piece of meat and handed it over.

  "Daddy, meat is delicious!"

  "Daddy doesn't like eating meat, you can eat it!"

  The little girl handed the meat to her mother again, "Mom, you eat meat too..."

  Wu also wanted to refuse, but Wu Zhang interrupted, "Take a bite, as a daughter's filial piety."

  Wu opened her mouth and ate the meat, which was about the size of mouse droppings.

  "Are you full?"

  Wu Zhang asked after seeing his daughter finish eating, but the little girl nodded, "Are you full?"

  "Gurgling!"

  After saying this, the little girl's stomach began to growl. , obviously not full.

  "Children can't lie!" Wu Zhang said seriously.

  The little girl nodded, but she hugged her father's legs nervously, "Dad, the water is cold, no crabs, I'm not hungry."

  Obviously, the little girl is very smart and considerate, and knows that she Dad caught crabs from the river, and the weather was so cold that he was afraid they would freeze, so he lied.

  Wu Zhang was deeply moved, but he said with a smile, "It's okay, dad is an adult and is not afraid of the cold."

  He said this, but he still felt very guilty in his heart, and then he decided to bake all the crabs, leaving only these few crabs. There wasn't much meat, so if you gave it to the yamen servants, you wouldn't be able to exchange it for anything.

  It is better to give it to my daughter to replenish her body.

  He continued to make wicker chairs and other things, intending to use these things to exchange, and he already had another idea.

  ...

  I don't know how long it took, but he wove a few small baskets and a wicker chair. It was called a wicker chair, but it was actually a small stool.

  Then he took these things to find the yamen servant, but unfortunately, Xu Tian was not there, and he didn't know where he went.

  Wu Zhang had no choice but to choose a yamen servant who seemed easier to talk to, and then told him his thoughts.

  However, the yamen servant shook his head and refused, "We don't have any extra clothes."

  In fact, they did not. There was nothing else on the carriage except food.

  Moreover, they are not interested in Wu Zhang's things at all.

  "Can I exchange for some food?" Wu Zhang hesitated for a while and couldn't help but ask.

  "No."

  The yamen servant refused without hesitation, "This thing is worthless. It can't be exchanged for food. If you buy it with money, it's almost enough."

  "I..."

  Wu Zhang sighed. If he had money, he would have done it long ago. He took it out, but unfortunately he was just a servant before and didn't have much savings at all. He was plundered by Captain Sun and others for a while, so he didn't have much money at all.

  In desperation, he just tried one last resort.

  In fact, he considered selling these things to other prisoners, but now everyone knows the importance of money and will not spend it randomly. In addition, after Captain Sun and the bandits looted for a while, everyone didn't have much money.

  Therefore, they will not waste money on buying extra things. They just say that this wicker chair is not necessary for the prisoners. If they want to sit, they can just sit on the ground.

  ...

  "Miss, someone is looking for Mr. Chen!"

  Chen Xue is using bamboo pieces to construct a bamboo house. After all, after collecting so much bamboo, she can build a bamboo house.

  However, none of them knew how to build a bamboo house, so they discussed and built the simplest one. The roof would not be built for the time being, since it would not rain or be exposed to the sun in the space.

  Therefore, they only need to get some bamboo to surround a few small rooms so that they can have room to rest.

  Therefore, Chen Xue came up with the design of the room. Although she could not build a bamboo house, she had seen a bamboo house before. Coupled with the shape of the room in her previous life, she must come up with a better design.

  However, she had conceived the idea, but Master Chen and others were numb when they actually performed it.

  It's like having brains but not hands. They arranged bamboos in a row, but they didn't know how to make doors and windows.

  And they looked back at the sheepfold and found that it was no different from the bamboo house they were building now.

  Therefore, Chen Xuezheng was depressed, and then he heard that someone was looking for him, and he became a little curious.

  After getting off the carriage, I saw a man with several small baskets hanging on his waist and a wicker chair in his hand.

  "You are..."

  The man immediately introduced himself respectfully, and then explained his purpose of coming. In order to avoid Chen Xue misunderstanding, he quickly explained clearly that he wanted to buy some clothes for his daughter to avoid frostbite.

  Chen Xue waved her hand, interrupted him, and stared at him, "Can you build a bamboo house?"

  The man was a little confused, but he nodded, "Yes, I was a craftsman before I was a villain."
