Chapter 240: Stupid, lazy and selfish, who is to blame?

They wanted to hide in the barn, huddle next to the cows and horses, and at least get warmer.

However, the people of Qingshui Village are completely afraid of these two families, worried that these two bad guys will have evil intentions for their livestock.

If they drugged the cattle or horses or did anything else, they would have no animals to pull the cart.

Therefore, the old village chief issued a message to the two families to stay away from the cattle shed, and asked the night watchers to pay careful attention to the two families and not allow them to approach the cattle shed.

The two families were so angry that they vomited blood and cursed the people of Qingshui Village for being cold-blooded, selfish and inhumane.

Qiao Ran couldn't help but shake her head as she watched the two families wrap themselves in oilcloth and find a tree trunk to rest against.

There are trees and weeds everywhere on the roadside. You can build a straw shed with just a few hands, and then splice the oilcloths and spread it on it. At least the whole family can go in and stay warm.

But no one is willing to take action. They would rather just stay out in the rain and cold. They are stupid, lazy and selfish. Who can blame them?

The next morning when it rained and snowed, half of the two families had stuffy noses, coughing and sneezing. This was when they finally caught the cold.

Everyone was worried that they would be infected, so they stayed away from them and did not allow the two families to get close to them.

As a result, when they were on their way during the day, the two families could only sneeze and cough while dragging their top-heavy bodies and staggering far behind the villagers.

Fortunately, because it had just rained and snowed, the ground was wet and slippery, so everyone slowed down and did not go all out.

Otherwise, I'm afraid these two families will not be able to catch up with everyone even if they run to death.

At rest that night, when everyone in the village had made dinner and was full and ready to go to bed, the two stragglers arrived half-dead.

They had no energy to get up and cook, and they had no food to feed them. They had to sit under a tree and rest for a while, then went into the woods in the dark to pick some leaves and dig some grass roots to eat.

Regarding the tragic situation of these two families, everyone just pretended not to see it, but secretly couldn't help but sigh.

It’s really your own fault!

Just follow the old village chief and act according to Qiao Ran's words like they did, and you won't know how good your life will be!

It's a pity that these two white-eyed wolves don't know what's wrong. They have received so many favors from the Qiao family and Qiao Ran.

This kind of person is so pitiful and hateful!

It would be nice if you could resist driving them far away. No one in the village was willing to lend a helping hand to these two white-eyed wolves.

After all, no one wants to be the next person to be resented in return for kindness.

The two families, who were indiscriminately swallowing the bitter and unpalatable leaves and roots, saw the villagers turning around and entering the tents to sleep comfortably. They couldn't help but curse in a low voice, but they didn't dare to let themselves go. The sound was heard by the villagers.

Qiao Honglian was gnawing at the grass roots while staring at Qiao's big tent with scarlet eyes.

She knew that Qiao Ran must have eaten well by now and was ready to sleep comfortably in the tent covered with linoleum and cotton mattresses.

There will also be a fire in the tent to keep the whole tent warm.

I would not sit on the wet and cold ground like myself, gnawing on bitter and hard weed roots, cold and hungry!

Thinking of Qiao Ran's good luck, and then thinking of her own tragic fate, Qiao Honglian's long-suppressed fire of jealousy began to burn brightly again.

She looked towards Wang's house, and through the firelight coming from the villagers' tents, she saw Brother Lu Sheng, who used to be handsome and good-looking, now had disheveled hair and a pale complexion. He was mechanically stuffing leaves into his mouth with his eyes closed.

This kind of brother Lu Sheng made Qiao Honglian very distressed. Sometimes she resented that brother Lu Sheng was so fascinated by that vixen Qiao Ran that she couldn't see how good she was to him.

Sometimes he couldn't help but complain about why he couldn't completely charm Qiao Ran so that he could get more benefits from Qiao Ran, so that they wouldn't have to suffer so much.

The more she thought about it, the more unwilling she became. Qiao Honglian took advantage of others' unpreparedness and sneaked up next to Wang Lusheng. When she got closer, she saw that he was still trembling all over.

He raised his hand and touched Wang Lusheng's forehead and found that he had developed a high fever.

"Brother Lu Sheng, are you okay? You, you have a high fever?"

At this time, the Wang family and his wife were still picking leaves and digging grass roots in the forest. Just now, they had only picked a few leaves for their son to eat first, and they didn't realize that their precious son had already developed a high fever.

Wang Lusheng didn't even open his eyes, he just said: "I feel uncomfortable."

Qiao Honglian's tears suddenly fell down: "Brother Lu Sheng, what should we do? You can't continue to burn! Don't burn out your brain. You will become a fool like Qiao Ran. How will you take the exam in the future? Are you a scholar or a scholar?"

Wang Lusheng was already suffering from a fever. His head felt as heavy as a big stone, and his eyelids were too sleepy to open.

But there was still a buzzing sound in his ears, which made him feel very agitated and frowned so much that he could pinch a fly.

But Qiao Honglian was still chattering: "Brother Lu Sheng, you can't keep your fever like this, otherwise you go and beg Qiao Ran and ask her to find you some antipyretic medicine!"

Wang Lusheng was very impatient: "She won't give it to me."

After countless encounters during this period, he finally saw clearly that Qiao Ran had really completely let go of him.

In other words, it was just the original fool Qiao Ran who was obsessed with him before.

Ever since she regained consciousness, Qiao Ran was like a different person. She had no feelings for him at all, and even disliked him.

It turns out that he thought Qiao Ran was playing hard to get, which was really ridiculous!

Thinking of the disgust, disgust and coldness in Qiao Ran's eyes when she looked at him, Wang Lusheng felt even more irritable.

He doesn't want to hear the name Qiao Ran anymore. This is his shame and a knot that he will never untie for the rest of his life.

"No, no way! Brother Lu Sheng, wasn't Qiao Ran very good to you before? Go and beg her! Maybe she will remember her old relationship and not only help you treat your illness, but she will also be like before I’ll give you delicious food. Brother Lu Sheng, go and beg her to give her more medicine..."

Wang Lusheng finally opened his eyes impatiently and looked at the chattering woman in front of him with unclear meaning.

At this moment, he really felt that Qiao Honglian was not a good match for him. He couldn't speak or look at people's faces. He was really unworthy of the stage!

He said angrily: "She won't give it to me. Why don't you go and beg her? Aren't you her cousin?"

Qiao Honglian choked and said weakly: "She, she won't give it to me. I have offended her several times."

Wang Lusheng snorted coldly: "You also know that you have offended her and she will not give it to you. I have offended her too, why did you ask me to find her?"

"But she..."

Qiao Honglian wanted to say something more, but Wang Lusheng raised his hand to stop her: "I feel uncomfortable, please stop talking."

Qiao Honglian had no choice but to shut up angrily.

After a while, she spoke unwillingly: "Brother Lu Sheng, don't you hate Qiao Ran because she turns her back on her and refuses to recognize anyone else?"
