Chapter 712
After all, it was only in the morning when she left the house to eat, and in the middle of the day she had gone through such a big circle of twists and turns, and now looking at the sky outside and the torch she held in her hand, she knew without thinking that it should be night.
I’m not hungry.
Here, she licked the corners of her mouth in embarrassment, touched her gurgling stomach, and asked, “Would it be too much trouble?”
“Aww, what’s the trouble, it’s all ready to eat, come on!If you can get out of bed by yourself, I’ll take you outside to eat.”
Jenny nodded, and although her whole body was still aching, she was barely able to get out of bed.
Following the woman, she slowly moved outside, only to find that outside was a hall, which was still dark, with only a paraffin lamp lit on the table to illuminate a small world.
The woman led her to the table and sat down, saying, “Wait here, I’ll get you something to eat.”
I said, and walked to the other side of the house.
Jenny sat there, taking a look around by the tiny paraffin lamp.
I saw that the house wasn’t big, the floor was not too flat dirt, not even concrete, the table day wood was made with a layer of black stuff pasted on it, and the red paint had come off in most places.
There was also a large standing cabinet that looked old, and by the faint light, you could faintly see some of the groceries and household items inside.
She didn’t know where she had fallen, but just from what was available, it would have been a very remote and backward village.
Still lighting paraffin lamps, but I’m afraid the electricity isn’t even on?
The knowledge made her heart sink to the bottom in an instant.
The woman soon came out with two bowls.
A bowl of brown rice, a bowl of vegetables and a few slices of meat mixed together.
She smiled, “It’s all leftover food from the night, don’t mind, you’ll be eating it.”
Jenny smiled and took the chopsticks, “No, it’s good enough.”
She certainly couldn’t be too squeamish under the circumstances, though she’d never eaten brown rice in her life, and it was true that looking at the food didn’t lift the cereal debt.
But Jenny understood that the harsher the environment, the more important it was to eat well and preserve one’s energy.
Especially, it’s still someone’s piece of mind.
The woman saw her start to eat with chopsticks, which put her mind at ease, went to one side of a low chair and sat down, and from nowhere, pulled out two long needles and a ball of wool yarn, where she began to knit a jumper.
Jenny looked at her, hesitated for a moment, and finally asked, “Big sister, may I ask what place this is?”
The woman looked up at her and smiled, “This is A San Village, a small, remote village that you may not have heard of.”
Jenny thought about it, and it was true that he had never heard of the name of this village in his memory.
She could only ask again, “Is this T country?”
The woman nodded, “Yeah, but we’re part of a very southern part of the country, this side borders Africa, and further south over there, there’s a lot of warfare, so it’s hard times for everyone.”
Jenny frowned at the sound of it.
And bordering Africa?That doesn’t match up with their route back to China!
But on second thought, she understood.
It should have been tampered with long ago and changed course midway through the flight, and none of the passengers on board noticed it.
Her heart sank further and further at the thought, and after picking up two bites of food, she continued, “Da’
Sister, I see you all use paraffin lamps here, is there no electricity on?”
The woman sighed at the news.
“We don’t have power?It used to be there, it wasn’t later in the war, fighting and the electricity went out, and then a big bombing, the circuits over there were all broken, and we didn’t have it on our side, so we just used paraffin lamps for convenience plus to save money.”
Jenny nodded.
She knew that there had never really been true peace in the world.
We live in peace, not because we live in a world that is always peaceful, but because we live in a country that is peaceful.
The woman seemed to be provoked by her, and continued to sigh, “Now here don’t say electricity, all communications are cut off, but this is good, we can live here in peace, don’t go out and others don’t want to come in, if anything happens go to the village chief’s house thirty kilometres away and say so, and then let the village chief notify the outside is.”.
Jenny fell silent.
No electricity, no communications.
These two perceptions were certainly bad for her.
After all, where there’s no electricity, don’t expect a car.
It became almost impossible to leave.
And without communication, she had no way to contact anyone out there, her own phone had been lost during the jump and now she couldn’t reach anyone even if she wanted to.
At the thought of this, her beautiful eyebrows furrowed into a Kawaii.
Biden Lu is now in China, he should have received the news of her plane accident!
I wonder how he’s doing, and if he’s worried about her.
The two children were still at home and Ann was even waiting for her to return to spend her birthday with her.
At the thought of this, Jenny only felt confused.
The already small amount of food grains owed, and at the moment it was even more difficult to eat.
She ate a few bites, then put down her chopsticks.
When the woman saw this, she said, “Awwww,” and laughed, “Do you think our food here is too brown to eat?”
Jenny Jing barely smiled, against his will, “No, just woke up the body is not very comfortable yet, nothing food grain owes.”
The woman smiled, “Don’t worry, before you woke up, I went to ask our doctor here to see you, and said it’s nothing serious, you’ll be fine after a few days of rest.”
Jenny didn’t know what kind of doctor she was talking about, but figured that it would probably be a barefoot doctor who walked around the village.
At this point, there was no way to be too particular, so I nodded.
“Thanks big sister, can I ask you something?”
As my older sister got up to collect her bowl, she asked, “What is it, you say?”
Jenny asked, “Is the fourth uncle of his family that that little kid just mentioned far from here?I’d like to meet my friend tomorrow, is that convenient?”
The woman was stunned, then smiled, “There’s no need to be so anxious, his fourth uncle is more than thirty kilometres from here, don’t worry, your friend is recovering there, there’s absolutely no problem, when your injuries have recovered, I’ll take you to see her as well.”
Jenny was a bit anxious, “No, big sister, you don’t understand, we…”
She pursed her lips and the valley owed her words, but eventually, in the end, all she said was, “We have to be together.”
After all, they had fallen out of the plane because of the chase, and although they had survived the disaster and both had picked up a life, she really wasn’t sure if those people would come after her again.
Chapter 713
She saw that she should be safe for now, but what was going on on Mo Nan’s side, she had no idea.
She was a little worried that something might happen to Mo Nan.
The woman stopped and looked at her half a dozen times.
Seeing that her face was really anxious, she could only say, “Alright, then I’ll have someone go to his fourth uncle’s place tomorrow to take a look, and if it’s convenient, I’ll have someone bring that girl over.”
Jenny said evenly, “Why don’t I go with them?”
The smile on the woman’s face faded a little, and the skinny smile said, “Girl, what are you so worried about?We saved you and your friend, we won’t harm you, and we’ll meet two days later, are you still afraid that we’ll eat your friend?”
Her sudden change in attitude caused Jenny Jing to freeze.
And I don’t know what offended him.
But one had to bow one’s head under the eaves, and Jenny could not say anything more, seeing that he refused to agree, and finally had no choice but to give up.
The woman saw the situation and comforted her a few times.
“Don’t feel bad about it, mainly because his fourth uncle’s village is waiting to keep outsiders out, and they’re already lucky that they’re willing to save your friend, otherwise, they wouldn’t save outsiders at all.”
Jenny frowned, subconsciously finding that a bit strange.
But the woman didn’t give her much time to think, and when she was done, she went out.
She didn’t go out for long, but soon, she was done with the instructions and walked in.
“I’ve spoken to them, don’t worry, someone will be over tomorrow to see if that’s your friend, what’s your name by the way?I’ll talk to them later, or you won’t have a picture or anything, it’s not easy to recognize.”
Jenny pursed her lips, and for some reason, the ghost did not give her real name.
Instead, he said a name that could be understood by Muran alone.
“My name is Seven.”
The woman was stunned and smiled, “That’s a nickname, right?Okay, it’s fine, I’ll talk to them, and then if she’s really your friend, I’ll have her sent over.”
Afterwards, he went out again.
Jenny sat there and waited until she had finished giving instructions outside before coming in.
The woman said to her, “It’s getting late, so you can rest in that room you were in just now, and we’ll talk about what’s going on when it’s morning.”
Jenny nodded and didn’t ask for her assistance, holding onto the wall herself and going back to her room.
The night was dark and she lay in bed, tossing and turning, having trouble falling asleep.
There was a very clear insect chirp outside the house, a sound you can only hear in the countryside.
Jenny smelled the dampness emanating from the bed beneath him, and for some reason, a feeling of unease arose in his heart.
But at this point, it was useless for her to think about it any further.
I don’t know how Mo Nan is doing now, and if he’s hurt over there, but I hope we don’t run into those talents.
Thinking so, she closed her eyes, her body was still too stimulated during the day in the end, although she obviously did not want to fall asleep, and tried to refresh herself to be alert, but in the latter half of the night, she could not help but sleep.
The next day, when she woke up again, it was morning.
Jenny opened his eyes and saw a group of children with dirty faces standing in front of his bed.
She was so shocked that she almost subconsciously jumped out of bed.
“You guys…”
“Hehehe-“
The group of children, presumably from the village, saw her awake and weren’t afraid, just smiling and laughing at her.
Jenny was staring at them, seeing a hint of childish innocence in their eyes, sensing that they meant no harm to him, and were probably just curious, before gradually relaxing after a while.
As a mother herself, she already had a natural affinity for her children.
So I asked, “What are you doing here?What time is it?”
All of those kids could understand her, but most of them didn’t answer.
Only one of them, who looked older, said, “Aunt Flora asked us to watch you, now…”
He looked behind him, looked through the window at the sun, and said, “Probably maybe nine o’clock.”
Jenny: “……..”
I don’t think there’s a clock or a watch in here!
She couldn’t say what it was like to be poor, but although she knew there was poverty in the world, she never thought that it would be so.
She lifted the blanket and sat up.
“Is Aunt Flora the lady who saved me yesterday?Where is she now?”
“She’s gone to the mountains and won’t be back until noon!Where are you going?”
Jenny put on her jacket and wanted to go out and wash her face, but she froze for a moment when the kids said she wouldn’t be back until noon.
She looked back at the group of children and asked the one who had just answered her, “Last night, Aunt Flora promised me that she would send someone to see my friend in the next village, did they set out?”
The child opened his eyes wide in confusion for a moment before nodding his head.
“Off we go, early in the morning, you wait, they’ll be back this afternoon.”
Only then did Jenny’s heart fall back into his stomach.
Thinking about it, it always felt a little strange to be surrounded by such a large group of kids.
But she couldn’t say anything, so she had to say, “Then come out with me, and don’t all stand here.”
The group of children just hailed her and followed her out.
Only after Jenny went out did this first official look at the village.
It was much as she had imagined, with daylight and only one earthen-walled house standing in the village.
Behind each house was a fence around a yard wall, but none of them were high enough to have chickens and ducks and geese running around in them, and there were cows tethered by the roadside that were not known to be there, and the smell of cow shit behind them was unpleasant.
She stood in front of the door, stretched, and sighed.
It doesn’t seem easy, either.
When the group of children came out, they didn’t leave, but were still standing around looking at her.
Jenny was a little embarrassed and didn’t know why these kids had to keep following him.
Seeing their eyes looking at her, which were strange and pitiful, she touched her pockets, and didn’t feel anything funny to eat.
In fact, she had lost everything she was carrying when she jumped, and at this point, nothing could be taken out.
On second thought, I had to ask, “Have you guys had breakfast yet?”
“Eat up.”
The little ones answered in unison instead.
Jenny touched his stomach.
“But I haven’t eaten.”
“Aunt Flora said if you wake up, cook your own food, there’s rice in the kitchen.”
Jenny was stunned and looked over in the direction of his finger, asking, “That’s the kitchen?”
“Well.”
It was only an even shorter room, Jenny thought, but in the end, he walked over.
As we walked, I said, “Do you guys want another snack after breakfast?Why don’t I make you guys some rice cakes?”
Chapter 714
A bunch of kids stay in the village for years, where do they eat snacks?
At her words, her eyes lit up.
“Yes, yes, yes!”
Jenny smiled, thinking to himself that although it was a little strange that these kids kept following him, they were at least cute.
It’s nothing to cook a meal for them yourself.
Being a mother herself, she had a natural sense of pity for children and naturally couldn’t be defensive.
When I went into the kitchen, it was just pitch black as well.
Luckily, there was a not-so-small window to the left, which was open, and the sunlight from outside shone in, but it also brightened up the otherwise dark kitchen.
In the rural countryside, there’s not even electricity, so naturally you can’t expect to have a gas stove.
Jenny turned to look at the little carrot heads following behind him and asked, “Which one of you can burn fire?”
Everyone enthusiastically raised their hands and shouted, “I will!”
“I will I will!”
“So would I.”
Jenny swept around, picking out the oldest looking one from among them and pointing to him, “You’re it then.”
The little child who received the assignment rejoiced.
Extra aggressively going behind the stove, the rest of the children watched, all eyeing her.
Jenny was afraid that they would come over to make trouble and pointed to a few small stools not far away.
“And don’t you guys watch, go sit over there and wait, you’ll be fine soon.”
The group of little carrots nodded at this and went to sit down nicely on the next stool.
It was good that Jenny was someone with experience in bringing up children, otherwise she wouldn’t be able to handle such a large group of children pestering her.
In a country place, conditions are limited and she can’t use her cooking skills.
At home before, when she was bored, she learned how to make rice cakes once with the family’s maid, Mrs. Chen, and it was quite successful, and today she plans to make them again.
First find the rice from the jar next to it, wash it, steam it, then put it in a bowl, crumble it into cakes, and put it in the pan on low heat to fry.
Although it was just a very plain dish, a group of children were still salivating when it finally came out fried with the aroma of rice.
One stared at the pot with eyes that just wanted to stare out.
Jenny looked amused and, at the same time, a little distressed.
These kids, in fact, are pretty pathetic.
I don’t know what their normal life is like, but in a village like this, where supplies are scarce, the joy of children is always so poor.
Jenny quickly made the rice cakes.
It really is all about colour and aroma.
She broke the pie into smaller pieces and asked them with a smile, “Who wants to eat it?Raise your hand if you want to eat.”
A group of small children immediately shouted and raised their hands.
Some were so excited that they even jumped up from their stools.
Jenny smiled and handed them a piece with her chopsticks as she carefully instructed, “Be careful it’s hot oh, blow on it before you eat it.”
The children finally got a taste of the long-awaited food, and one by one, they squinted in delight at the food.
His affection for Jenny was also rubbing off on him.
Jenny watched as they finished eating and ate a piece of it herself, then after dividing the rest equally, that’s when she walked out of the kitchen.
Outside, it’s eleven in the morning.
She stood in the doorway for a moment, then turned back to see a group of children following her out again and raised her eyebrows
.
“There are no more rice cakes oh, I won’t make you any more if you follow me.”
Unsurprisingly, the group of children shook their heads and said, “We’re not doing this for rice crackers.”
Jenny was appalled, “Then why have you been following me?”
One of the older children, the one who had previously chosen to burn the fire, said, “It was Aunt Fa who told us to come and watch over you, saying that she was afraid you might be lost alone.”
Jenny was stunned.
I don’t know why, but I have a weird feeling.
However, she just assumed that that Aunt Aflame was more kind and smiled, “So that’s how it is, don’t worry, I won’t get lost.”
After a pause, he added, “How about this, you can follow me, but you’ll be responsible for showing me around the village, okay?”
The children ate her food and found the pretty sister gentle and easy to talk to, and were already very fond of her.
Thinking about Aunt Fleur before she went out, she only said that they should watch her, but she didn’t say she wasn’t allowed to go out.
So one by one, they agreed.
When Jenny saw this, he wandered off to the village with a group of children.
The village wasn’t small, if you put it anywhere else, it would be almost like a town.
But just because it is the countryside, in which the carpathian paths run through, and each house is far away from each other, quiet and remote, so although the land is large, but not let people think that it is prosperous and lively.
Jenny, led by the children, quickly strolled through the entire village.
It was close to three o’clock in the afternoon before I got back to Aunt Fleur’s house.
By the time I returned, Aunt Fleur had returned from the mountains and arrived home.
Probably came back and saw that she wasn’t there, so made a special trip to the next door neighbour to find out if she had gone out with a group of kids to stroll through the village, so I wasn’t worried.
Seeing her return, she smiled and asked, “Back from shopping?How’s that?Our village is big enough.”
Jenny smiled and nodded, “It’s pretty big.”
After a pause, in the end, I was concerned, “Did you just get back from the mountains?Are you tired?Do you need me to get you a bowl of water?”
Aunt Aflame waved her hand repeatedly, “No, no, I’ll just pour it myself.”
I said, going to pour out a bowl of water myself and sitting on the stone mound at the door, looking at her as I drank, “The man who was sent to his fourth uncle’s house this morning to get news for you will be back later, and my man will be back with them, and then you’ll know if that’s your friend or not.”
Jenny was stunned and raised his eyebrows.
When she saw Aunt Fleur alone in the house before, she thought, she has no husband.
Although she felt curious, she was unfamiliar with it, and secondly, the customs of the people were all different, so she couldn’t ask.
Now it turns out that she has a husband too.
Thinking of this, Jenny even smiled, “Thank you very much.”
Aunt Flora waved her hand, finished her bowl of water, and stood up.
“You don’t have to be polite to me, anyway, just stay here with me for the time being, if that girl is really your friend, she’ll naturally come over to find you.”
Jenny pursed her lips, not saying anything and followed her inside.
It gets dark early this time of year.
The village is not well lit at night, so dinner is usually served early.
At 4:00 p.m., you’ll have to start preparing dinner.
Probably because her man was coming home today, Aunt Fleur had prepared the dinner extraordinarily well.
He even went to the next pond himself and got two fish up.
