Jiang Yue was vaguely conscious, but she kept dreaming. She felt like a small boat floating on the sea, being beaten back and forth by the waves.
The moment she was about to be knocked over by the waves, she opened her eyes, and her eyes were filled with white. After a while, the sight gradually became clearer, and what came into view was the log-colored carriage.
Oh, it turns out we are not riding a boat, but a carriage. No wonder it is so swaying.
Um? Where did the carriage come from?
"You finally woke up!"
A young female voice entered her ears.
She turned around and saw a young mother and daughter sitting on the other side of the carriage. Although he was wearing patches, the fabric used was cotton. Although the interior of the carriage is simple, the wood is polished smooth and meticulous, giving it a low-key sense of refinement.
But if you have a carriage, you will not be a simple family.
There were a few luggage bundles in the corner, but she didn't look at them much.
The identity of this family should not be simple.
"Did you save me?"
Jiang Yue struggled to speak out and found that her voice was hoarse. I swallowed, my throat was dry and sore.
She touched her forehead with her white and wrinkled fingertips. The wound had scabbed over, but it was still throbbing with pain.
The little girl was about six or seven years old. She had a thin face but round and cute eyes. She looked very innocent and innocent.
She sat in her mother's arms, tilted her head and said, "Sister, we heard a sound when we were passing by. It was my eldest and second brothers who saved you."
Jiang Yue propped herself up and sat up straight. She only saw a pair of big hands before she fainted, but she didn't see his face clearly. This little girl’s eldest and second brother? He should be catching the bus outside.
She sincerely thanked you, "Thank you."
The mother spoke with a gentle look and a gentle voice, "You're welcome, little lady, it's just a matter of course."
At times like this, it is indeed kind to be willing to take someone with you after you save him. She thinks she can't even do it herself, and she is just a person who only cares about herself.
She gently opened the car window, and the rain outside had weakened. The drizzle was hazy, and she could vaguely tell that it was early morning.
Did they travel all night?
Jiang Yue was startled and asked quickly, "Madam, how long did it take you to travel from the place where you rescued me?"
"We traveled day and night, a total of two days and one night."
Seeing her ugly face, the other party hesitated and said, "What's the problem? Did we do something bad with good intentions?"
Jiang Yue shook her head, she was not a ungrateful person. They rescued her. Maybe they saw her as a young woman and took her on the road for her safety. If not, she might have died long ago.
She pursed her lips, "You saved me, and I can't even thank you enough. But, I got separated from my husband, and he is still there. I have to go back to find him."
The mother looked surprised, so that was the case. I can't tell that she is married.
They indeed saw her alone there and thought she was a poor orphan, so they took her on the road.
"Madam, which direction are you walking from?" She looked at the scenery outside the window. There were no villages or cities around.
"We were walking all the way to the east." She hesitated, looking embarrassed. "But, how are you going to find your husband now?"
They were still in a hurry and couldn't possibly spend a few more days sending her back.
"It's okay, I can just walk back by myself. Please stop the car."
Was she, a weak and injured woman, walking back alone?
Although she is poorly dressed, she looks like she is living a good life. She has flesh on her body, the mud on her face has been wiped off, her complexion is fair and tender, and her eyes are bright. She is a vibrant beauty.
This is not safe on the road.
The young mother looked surprised, but this was not something she should be concerned with, so she replied, "Okay."
Then he opened the car door and said to his son, "A Shuo, pull over for a moment, I want to get out of the car."
"Okay, mother."
"Uh-" The two young men sitting on the carriage stopped the car.
Jiang Yue looked through the car door and saw two fifteen or sixteen-year-old boys who looked exactly the same. With sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, they looked like they were wealthy young men from well-off families.
She was quite surprised. That mother, who looked like she was only twenty years old, actually had two such old sons?
If it weren't for the fact that these three people had a slight resemblance in their eyebrows and treated her with respect and affection, I would have thought she was the stepmother.
One of the boys, a relatively calm-looking boy with clear eyes, said, "We just passed by a group of refugees. My wife can follow behind to be safer."
This is to remind her to find a team to protect her. Walking on the road, a lone person is easily attacked. Not to mention a beautiful-looking woman.
Jiang Yue nodded and said nothing more. It was right to do so as usual. But along the way, her trust in the team was no higher than when she was walking alone.
Who knows whether those people will commit evil collectively, or maybe they are sheep caught in the tiger's mouth.
To avoid suspicion, the two brothers jumped out of the car and gave way.
Jiang Yue was not as reserved as women nowadays and jumped down rudely. Wearing pants, you don’t even have to lift your skirt.
Jiang Yue thanked the family again, and then slowly walked back towards the west.
The two brothers looked at the little lady limping, looking thin, but quite strong and courageous.
Suddenly, they heard the little sister scream in surprise in the car. They looked tense and jumped on the car, "Mom, sister, what's wrong?"
"Brother, there is an extra bag of polished rice in our luggage!" the little girl covered her mouth and whispered.
She held it up to show her brothers, there were probably two buckets!
Their family has not had polished rice for three months and has replaced all grains with coarse grains.
Her mother frowned slightly, this was really unbelievable. She was very sure that before the girl got on the bus, there was no polished rice in the luggage, only a little coarse grain for subsistence.
It's already a good day for them to have whole grains to eat.
Besides, they don’t have such sacks at home.
The young man named Ashuo turned around and watched the young lady gradually walking away, with an expression that was difficult to distinguish.
When they rescued the girl, her clothes were soaked through and she had no other baggage on her body. But he was able to leave the food behind without anyone noticing.
He had never believed in ghosts and gods, but now, he had to wonder, was this little lady sent by God to help them? Otherwise, how could life-saving food be sent to them when they were about to run out of resources?
Jiang Yue had no idea that she had been included in the category of ghosts and gods. She put on her mask again when she went on the road alone. At this time, she really wished that a ghost could really help her.
Now my whole body aches, my hands and feet are about to run away from home, and my head looks like it's about to explode.
But she could only keep moving forward, she didn't dare to slow down.
She was worried that she would never get her boy back.
