Ancient Wen Heng left all their baggage with Li Cuicui, making the excuse that he was taking Jin Qianqian farther off to search for wild vegetables.
Li Cuicui pursed her lips, watching the young couple walk into the distance. 'Are their grain supplies already hitting bottom?' she wondered.
"Mom, let me see if Brother Qi still has any water in his bamboo canteen?" Gu Yuanlei couldn't wait to get his hands on it, but Li Cuicui slapped his hand away.
"Whether there is or not, it has nothing to do with you. What is it now? After swindling your own mother and father, now you want to swindle your Brother Qi?"
The very sight of this son was enough to exasperate Li Cuicui now. The last few times they had found a water source, he had actually disregarded her objections and secretly rushed to give the water to the Lan Family.
If her other sons hadn't set aside some water for them, she and her husband might not have survived this long.
