where to? Qiao Linxi didn't know either, so she just gave the basket and sickle to the eldest brothers and sisters of each family, and handed the basket on her back to Qiao Linqin, while she carried Qiao Linhua on her back.
An army of children continued to move forward. Because they were all children, they attracted the attention of many people, and some even came to snatch their backpacks. I thought that if a group of children could walk for so long alive, they must have something to eat, but it turned out that there was nothing in the backpack except some rusty sickles.
Everyone is moving forward. Although they don't know what the situation ahead is, they all have the thought in their hearts that there is hope if they move forward.
Qiao Linxi didn't know how long she had been walking with her brothers and sisters. She had a few steamed buns and bottles of water in her system, but she didn't dare to take them out because there were too many refugees on the road. I can only endure my hunger and thirst.
Behind, eight-year-old Qiao Linqi was holding eleven-year-old Qiao Linbao and whispering: "Brother Lin Bao, I'm going to tell you a secret. Don't tell anyone else."
"Well, you tell me." Qiao Linbao pulled three-year-old Qiao Lintang: "I won't tell others."
"Come here," Qiao Linqi leaned close to Qiao Linbao's ear and said softly: "My sister is a fairy. She can turn into a steamed bun and come out. She only has fairy magic when the stars come out. Hey..."
After saying that, Qiao Linqi sighed.
"Really? Then your sister is really amazing." Qiao Linbao didn't take Qiao Linqi's words seriously. He was eleven years old and understood a lot of things. He also knew that there couldn't be any fairies in this world.
Qiao Linxi looked back at her two mysterious brothers and ignored them. She thought that since the system gave her these eighteen younger brothers and sisters, then these eighteen younger brothers and sisters might listen to her. Otherwise, it would be impossible for her to support all eighteen of them.
She, Qiao Linxi, was not a kind person, and she would not do anything that would make her unhappy. If any of the eighteen younger siblings disobeys her or does something that harms her interests, she will definitely draw a clear line with that person.
She has no responsibility to support these cousins.
"Brother, I'm hungry..." Qiao Linyi, a five-year-old girl from her fourth uncle's family, cried while pulling her brother.
Ten-year-old Qiao Linji looked at Qiao Linxi's back and coaxed her sister: "Lin Yi, be good, you will have something to eat soon. Sister Lin Xi has some candy, she will give it to you later."
Invisibly, Qiao Linxi became the hope of all children. She is also the light in the children's eyes. As long as they follow the light, they will always get out of the abyss.
"Oh." Five-year-old Qiao Linyi didn't know whether his brother's words were true or false, so he nodded obediently and stopped talking.
More and more refugees were walking forward, coming from all directions. Qiao Linxi and her children were very eye-catching. Some even had Qiao Linxi's idea.
"Girl..." A woman saw that Qiao Linxi was good-looking, so she took the initiative to strike up a conversation: "Isn't it hard for you to take care of so many younger brothers and sisters by yourself? Why don't you come over and walk with us?"
The woman said, approaching Qiao Linxi mysteriously: "I can give you half a steamed bun. As long as you agree to marry my son, this steamed bun will be yours."
As she spoke, the woman carefully took out something wrapped in black cloth from her arms. After opening the layers one by one, half of the hard and yellow buns were revealed.
In such a famine situation, it is indeed not easy to save half a steamed bun.
But for Qiao Linxi, who has a plug-in system, this half yellowed bun is a bit ridiculous. She can have several fragrant and soft white steamed buns.
"Oh, if you marry my son, you don't have to worry about these younger brothers and sisters. There are three of us in the family, and you are the only four of us. We can definitely survive if we go together. And you bring so many younger brothers and sisters, Whether he can survive or not is still unknown.”
It must be said that the woman's words made sense, and even Qiao Linxi felt that marrying her son was the right choice.
"Sister..." Qiao Linqin gritted her teeth and hesitated for a long time before speaking: "Sister, please promise this aunt. I think her son is also a good person and has a lot of talent."
Qiao Linxi thought Qiao Linqin would say that she wouldn't let her get married, but she didn't expect that this sister would actually persuade her to get married.
"Are you willing to let me get married and not care about you?" Qiao Linxi asked.
"There are so many of us siblings, only one of us can survive."
"Why are you so good? I'll reward you with a steamed bun."
Qiao Linxi ruffled Qiao Linqin's hair, stretched out her fist in front of Qiao Linqin, and asked Qiao Linqin to fist bump with her.
After Qiao Linqin touched it, Qiao Linxi opened her hand and found nothing, but she said, "Look, a big, fragrant steamed bun."
Qiao Linqin burst out laughing, then pretended to get the steamed bun, put it in her mouth, chewed it, and said with a satisfied look: "It's delicious."
"Don't worry, my sister won't leave you alone." After saying that, Qiao Linxi looked at the woman: "Thank you for your favor, but my brothers and sisters are still young, so I won't leave them alone."
"Hey," the woman lamented, "What a wonderful child, but it's a pity that he encountered a famine."
After walking for a long time, the city wall could be vaguely seen on a piece of yellow land. As I got closer, I realized it was actually a city wall.
But the city gate was closed, and there were several people with knives in their hands guarding the city gate.
Outside the city gate, people on three floors inside and three outside were surrounded by refugees who had arrived early. They all wanted to enter the city and had a belief in their hearts that there must be food in the city.
Qiao Linxi did not take her younger brothers and sisters to crowd with the refugees. Instead, she found an open place for her younger brothers and sisters to sit down and rest.
There are three bottles of water and five steamed buns in her system. She saved one last night and produced four more in the lunch box today.
It is quite a test for Qiao Linxi to divide the water equally among the eighteen younger brothers and sisters. Three bottles of 500 ml water equals 1,500 ml. If divided into eighteen parts, almost everyone can drink 80 ml. Cut a steamed bun into four pieces, and one person can get a quarter of the steamed bun.
She had figured out how to divide them, but Qiao Linxi was in trouble again. The steamed buns were easy to say, but how to make the water evenly divided.
With this in mind, Qiao Linxi exchanged five points of gratitude for some wishing points, and exchanged the wishing points for several measuring cups. Perhaps because she felt bad after seeing Qiao Linxi with eighteen younger brothers and sisters, the system gave her four 100 ml small measuring cups.
"Come here, everyone." Qiao Linxi carried Qiao Linhua on her back and walked farther away. Seeing Qiao Linxi's movements, Qiao Linshu's eyes suddenly lit up. His sister was walking to a deserted place. Was she about to cast a spell and turn into a steamed bun?
"Sister..." Qiao Linqin followed Qiao Linshu and walked toward Qiao Linxi. The other people saw that Qiao Linqin's four siblings were following Qiao Linxi, and they also followed them.
