Mother told them that if they were afraid of getting lost on the road, they would have a way to survive if they had some money with them.
Ye Yutong saw that Li Yunze was concentrating with his eyes closed and was not ready to feed him.
Then I thought about it, they were a family, and it wouldn't be good if they ate alone without telling him.
But there definitely isn’t such a small tomato here. If we take it out, how can we explain it?
Although this kid never asks where things come from, he is not stupid. How can he not be clear about it?
After thinking for a long time, I decided to give him a pear that was available in this dynasty, and forget about the small tomatoes.
She reached into the basket in front of her and pretended to rummage through things, and soon she took out a big pear.
Afraid that others would see it, I wrapped it in an old piece of clothing.
Seeing that his eyes were still closed, I quietly stuffed it into his hand and whispered, "Eat quickly."
Li Yunze opened his eyes and glanced at her, then nodded and said, "I'll take a nap."
After saying that, he lay down, covered his head with an old piece of clothing, hugged the pear and started eating. He basically made no sound when eating.
Ye Yutong was close to him, and he heard the clicking sound of pears under his clothes.
She was a little amused, and thought his method was good.
Let him go down for a walk later, and let his two brothers and mother come up to have something to eat. Eating while walking is too conspicuous.
We walked like this for a whole day. When we stopped to rest at night, everyone was exhausted. They ate a few bites and then lay down to rest.
Li Yunze was still keeping watch, and Ye Yutong entered the space again under the cover of Li Wenxiu.
She and Li Yunze sat on the trolley most of the time today, which was agreed upon by everyone.
Li Yunze has to keep vigil at night, and she has to go into the space to work. She has to conserve her energy during the day and be energetic at night.
Ye Yutong entered the space and took out some food first.
If she waited until she finished her work before going out, she would be afraid that her two brothers would fall asleep and have been gone all day. How could she not eat something?
I got each of them a piece of flatbread, a peeled salted duck egg, and mung bean soup in a bamboo tube. What was given to Li Yunze was space well water.
These things have no taste. You can eat them secretly under the covers without anyone noticing.
I don’t dare to take anything else out. Everyone lives not far away and it would be bad if someone smells it.
When she entered the space, she was covered with a quilt and entered from Li Wenxiu's arms, so she was in the same position when she came out.
After quietly giving the things to a few people, Ye Yutong went in again.
She ate a lot of fruits and snacks on the cart in the afternoon, and she is not very hungry yet.
First, he took the basket to the mountains to pick up eggs, and then went to the fields to pick mature vegetables.
The vegetables and fruits here grow so fast that she can't finish them all by herself.
Pick the ones she likes to eat and those that are ripe, and ignore the rest.
After finishing the work in the fields, I went to the space to take a shower before sitting down to eat.
After my stomach was full, I went to the kitchen to get some ash from the pot bottom.
Apply some on her face, neck, and hands so that it would not be obvious that she had taken a shower.
When she came out of the space, Li Wenxiu was sleeping drowsily. Seeing that her daughter came out, she fell asleep peacefully.
Ye Yutong smelled the sweat on her mother's body, held her breath, quietly moved out, and turned around again.
Li Yunze sat on the cart, waiting for her breath to appear, and relaxed his vigilance.
In the dead of night, almost everyone was asleep except for a few watchmen.
He took out the dry food given by Ye Yutong and ate it. A double yolk salted duck egg, a flatbread made of rye flour, and a bamboo tube of water.
Yongchang got up in the middle of the night and said to Li Yunze: "Peace, you go and take a nap, I'll keep watch."
"Uncle Yongchang, I slept for a long time during the day. I'm not sleepy now. You have to pull the cart tomorrow. Your brothers and sisters are young and can't live without you. You can go to sleep. I can just watch here."
Li Yunze smiled and persuaded him to go back and rest. When looking for water, my uncle still relies on others to take care of him.
It was right for him to help keep watch at night.
Yongchang saw that he was indeed in good spirits, so he stopped insisting.
There is still a long road ahead. In the future, the two families will definitely support each other and move forward. There is no need to worry so much now.
The next morning, just before dawn, Ye Yutong heard a commotion.
My mother, my eldest brother and my second brother all got up and were packing their things in the car when they saw her waking up.
Li Wenxiu smiled and said: "Get up when you wake up, we are about to set off."
She asked in surprise: "Mom, why are you leaving so early?"
I only left after eating a few days ago. Why are you in such a hurry today?
"Just now, the chief informed us that it is getting hotter and hotter. If it is cooler in the morning, we can travel longer. When it gets hot at noon, let the elderly and children rest while the men go to find water."
Ye Yutong nodded, thinking this method was good. It's cooler in the morning and you won't sweat too much when you're on the road, so you can drink less water.
Although they did not travel day and night, they were still on the road, but more and more refugees were chasing after them.
A few days ago, everyone could still dig some wild vegetables. Now that they saw a few wild vegetables, the refugees rushed over in a swarm. His eyes would glance at the things in their car from time to time.
Everyone was frightened when they saw it, and now there was a lot of silence in the team.
No one was making any noise anymore. They were all keeping an eye on their own food, fearing it would be snatched away.
But everyone has almost run out of water and must find a water source.
At noon, the village chief asked everyone to rest where they were, and a man from each family followed them to find water.
Ye Mingxuan did not carry a wooden bucket this time. He carried several bamboo tubes on his back and a machete. He followed Uncle Yongchang and went with the men in the village.
The people who stayed behind didn't dare to move around easily, so they all sat guarding their belongings.
Ye Yutong helped her mother knit straw sandals while listening to the people next to her.
A middle-aged man in his forties said: "We can leave Yunzhou in two days' walk. After passing Yunzhou, we will reach Jinzhou City.
I heard that the drought there is not as serious as ours in Yunzhou, and we should be able to find water sources by then. "
Ye Yutong knew that after passing Yunzhou, he would be leaving the Xia King's fiefdom. At least he wouldn't have to worry about being forcibly taken away to join the army.
Although the disaster in Jinzhou was not that serious, the refugees like them could not enter the city at all.
Their family is not planning to follow them to the capital. As for where to go? She hasn't thought about it yet. It is best to go to a sparsely populated place deep in the mountains and old forests.
When we get to Jinzhou City, see if we can find a reason to sneak in? Go there to find out where there are big mountains and buy some farm tools and daily necessities.
In the future, when they go deep into the mountains, there will definitely be fewer people when they come out, and they will also need agricultural tools for farming.
Although there are ordinary farm tools in her space, the quantity is not enough. The whole family will definitely have to work by then.
"Drive, drive, drive." The sound of horse hooves came from the official road.
Li Yunze, who was sleeping on the cart, moved his ears. He suddenly opened his eyes and looked in the direction of the sound.
