Chapter 170 Situ Nanyao stayed
Qin Qingyun glanced at his daughter. What on earth is this girl up to?
But judging by the situation, it seems that he wants to keep this kid in the refugee group. What is the relationship between this kid and his daughter? Why is his daughter so protective of him?
He would never admit that he, as his biological father, had a sense of crisis, as if he had been raising flowers for more than ten years, and suddenly a bastard came and asked him to move away the flowers and pots.
Song Shuyi was not stupid. Although she did not know whether this life-saving favor was real or fake, she knew that her eldest son was in a very bad mood. She felt a little unhappy when she stared at Si Nan.
"My daughter, this is your savior, what do you say?" Qin Qingyun stared at his daughter with a look that saw through everything, which made Qin Wanwan look a little embarrassed.
She didn't want to hide it from her parents and planned to tell them about it later. The fewer people who knew about Situ Nanyao's identity, the safer it would be. But she didn't expect that his father was more perceptive than Ah Hao, and he was indeed the smartest person in the family.
But when she saw Qin Mu and her mother...
Well, their whole family is smart, except for the little boy Qin Lang, who stared at Situ Nanyao with curiosity, wondering how this guy could be so powerful? He was not very old, but he could actually be his sister's savior and help her drive away a pack of wolves.
"Dad, this is what I think. Do you think it's okay?
I will definitely repay this kindness, but we are fleeing famine after all, and we don't have a stable place to live, so we can't properly repay the life-saving grace. So I want Sinan to join our fleeing team and live with our family in the future, and then separate after we settle down.
Because Si Nan was fleeing famine alone. Both his parents died, and he relied on his martial arts and hunting skills to run all the way here. He didn't know where he was going, so it was okay for him to follow us.
So I brought him here for you to meet and discuss things with. If it's okay, he'll come with us from now on. If not..."
"It doesn't matter if it doesn't work. Don't make things difficult for me. I'm used to being alone anyway. Anything is fine." Situ Nanyao quickly responded.
Situ Nanyao has already revealed his bargaining chips: he is a strong laborer, has good kung fu skills, is honest, has great hunting skills, is easy to get along with, and being alone, he will not cause any harm to the entire team. Most importantly, he is Qin Wanwan's savior. Now it depends on what the people of Daqin Village think.
Qin Qingyun stared at his daughter. His half-smile made Qin Wanwan feel guilty. She quickly put on a flattering smile, "Dad, don't look at me. This is what my daughter thinks. What do you think? And what do the uncles, aunts, sisters, and brothers and sisters in the village think?"
Qin Qingyun stopped looking at his daughter and turned to Situ Nanyao. "Master Si, we must repay your life-saving grace. However, there is no small matter when fleeing from famine. I need to discuss this matter with everyone and ask for their opinions."
"What else do you think? Master Si is Fu Wan's savior, so we must welcome him."
"That's right, Qingyun, you keep saying those superficial things. Fuwan is your daughter, but she's also family to all of us. If you don't want us to repay her gratitude, that's fine, but it's up to you to decide whether to keep her savior alive. As long as Fuwan agrees, what objections can we have?"
"Of course I am. I always thought Qingyun didn't treat us as outsiders. But now, they're suddenly pushing us out?"
Everyone was talking at once, making Qin Qingyun's mouth twitch. Was that what he meant? Were these people being too dramatic?
"Dad?" Qin Wanwan saw Qin Qingyun with an incredible look on his face, and waved her hand in front of him, trying to bring his thoughts back.
Qin Qingyun put on his signature smile and said, "Since everyone in the village agrees, I won't say anything. Then Mr. Si, please follow us from now on."
As he said this, he glanced at his daughter, as if asking, are you satisfied with what I did?
He didn't know what his daughter was up to, but he knew she would definitely explain it to him, so he waited for her explanation.
After deciding whether Situ Nanyao should stay or go, Song Shuyi started to sew a tent for him.
"Mr. Si, this is your prey..." Qin Qingyun looked at the pile of prey on the ground and felt a liking for the seemingly young boy in front of him. He didn't expect that he was so young but had such high martial arts skills. Did he just dig out the animal nests in the forest?
"Uncle Qin, don't call me Master Si anymore, just call me Si Nan.
As for my prey, I can't release them now because it's too hot. These pheasants and rabbits are still alive, and I want to keep them. I will be following you in the future, so these pheasants and rabbits will be my food expenses for the time being.
As for the two wild boars, I can give some to the villagers as a thank you for giving me the money to join the group, and I want to see if I can exchange the rest for some other daily necessities.
From now on, I won't just eat and drink for free when I follow you. I'll go into the woods more often, catch more prey, and try to ensure that everyone can eat meat every day!"
Qin Qingyun looked at the boy's delighted expression. For some reason, he felt that he had made a wrong decision. Before he could reply, Song Shuyi spoke up, "Sinan, I know you're a good kid, but it's our duty to have you with us. Why should we ask you to pay for food? Silly boy, you're too honest."
"Aunt, you're willing to take me in and let me have someone to rely on in the future. This is already a repayment for your kindness. I'm already such a grown-up, how can I have the nerve to beg for food and drink? Besides, food is so precious now, and..." Situ Nanyao scratched his head embarrassedly, "I'm quite a eater."
His words made everyone laugh. Qin Qingyun looked at him and said, "Look, if we can catch them, that's the best. But if we can't, that's okay too. After all, the situation is not good right now, and there aren't many animals on the mountain."
Although Qin Qingyun was optimistic about the young man's abilities, he didn't have many thoughts in his mind.
He was also a hunter and had gone into the forest to see the current situation. There were no animals at all. It was good enough to find some small animals, and they were all very skinny.
In the end, everyone divided the two wild boars according to Situ Nanyao's request, but they did not take them directly. Almost every family took out something to exchange.
In the end, there were still about forty or fifty kilograms of pork left. Song Shuyi, her mother, and Song Qin pickled it with salt. There was a fresh piece left, which they planned to cook and eat tomorrow morning.
Although the other families in the village who got pork did not get as much as they did, they still pickled it with salt and put it aside to eat slowly.
