The people who came to watch the excitement and the three people who came out of Mr. Du's house were stunned at the same time, and no one could say a word for a while.
Seeing the two brothers leaving gracefully, the villagers who came to watch the fun couldn't help but give a thumbs up.
He is indeed a well-known boy in his village.
This momentum can be summed up in one word: sufficient!
Boss Du felt that his face was being slapped again and again, and he was extremely humiliated. He glanced at his two sons who were crying and screaming in the river.
He stamped his feet angrily and went back directly.
Mrs. Du, on the other hand, was distressed and kept shouting "Bao'er, Bao'er" and wanted to go down there to rescue people. But she was old and had old arms and legs. How could she dare to go down the steep slope to the river to rescue people? I can only stand by the river and worry.
Du Yueru looked at her two younger brothers and wanted to help them, but she didn't bother thinking about the next plan.
Instead, he walked in with his skirt in hand and went to discuss the matter with his father.
…
This is Du Laoer's house.
Thinking of the upcoming drought, the needed materials and points, Du Youling wanted to settle the score with the system!
"Come out Tongzi!"
"Host..." The system felt extremely guilty.
Du Youling used her consciousness to talk to the system in her mind: "Tell me about you. You claim to be a high-level system! How can you still be half-hearted when traveling through the time tunnel! It was your negligence that not only broke up the bond between the two of us, I also lost my billion points and supplies full of space!”
"..." The system didn't dare to say anything for a long time, and then couldn't help but defend in a low voice: "I'm sorry host, but I didn't expect that on the way back to the original world, I would encounter space-time fragments with a probability of less than one hundred thousandth. This is really What a surprise~"
The system glanced at Du Youling's expression, and immediately lowered his head and admitted his mistake sincerely: "Host, I was wrong...it's all my fault!"
Then he transformed into a villain and slapped himself. While fighting, he said: "It's all because of my carelessness, it's because I'm not worthy of being the ruler!"
Then he took a peek at Du Youling's face, and continued to flatter him: "Host, please forgive me for a moment, okay~" He even acted like a baby.
If it weren't for his old partner, Du Youling would have beaten this thing to death!
She took a deep breath and asked: "Then let me ask you, can I get my billion points and all the supplies in the space back?"
The system conjured a finger, put the two fingers together, and said with a guilty look:
"We don't know yet... but the system has filed a request with the Lord God to restore the host points and space supplies. However, there are still approval conditions for this process, so it is possible... not necessarily."
"Huh, so you've been saying for a long time that all my points and supplies are gone, right?" Du Youling's tone revealed danger.
"Host, don't be angry. It's all my fault. I'm not worthy of being the leader! It's my carelessness! Just forgive me once~"
He has a small mouth and a good attitude, but he just doesn't dare to make promises.
Du Youling didn't want to discuss it with the system anymore, as there was no result for the time being.
Fortunately, the system successfully sent her back to the original world. Once the points are gone, she can earn them again. Being able to see her family again is the greatest comfort to her.
The most important thing now is to escape as soon as possible. It is best and safest to hit the road now.
When Du Youling thought of this, he turned his attention to his elder brother.
Today her eldest brother went to town, and it was her father Du Laoer who asked him to go to town to find out the news.
Before dinner in the evening, Du Laoer asked Du Dalang:
"You went to town this morning and found out what happened?"
Du Dalang replied: "Sure enough, as Dad guessed, some wealthy families in the town who noticed the signs have already secretly left part of it, but they left very low-key, and they all sneaked away at night."
"I didn't find anything unusual when I went to the town to inquire about it, so I thought I would stop by the private school to check on my second and fourth brothers. But I found out that the street where the private school is located is also the street where rich families in the town usually live. , much deserted than usual.
I tried calling the back door of one of them, but no one answered, and the same was true when I went to the front door.
So I made a bold move and quietly climbed over the wall of their house, and found that the room was indeed empty. I went from their house to the one next door and found that they had already left. "
Du Laoer was not too surprised by what Du Dalang said, and had a genuine expression on his face.
He has been on the battlefield and even worked under a young general, and his experience is unparalleled by ordinary people.
He could expect that these rich people would leave secretly, so he was not too surprised.
Du Sanlang and Li Yueniang, who also heard this, were shocked. They didn't expect the situation to be so serious.
"Master, what should we do?" Li Yueniang asked Du Laoer, letting her man make the decision.
Du Laoer put the coarse porcelain bowl in his hand on the table and said loudly:
"Of course I want to escape."
"Dad, is it really this bad?"
To be honest, Li Yueniang was very reluctant to escape.
Since ancient times, many people have fled famine. There have been so many hardships on the way to escape famine, and so many relatives have been separated by Yin and Yang.
Du Laoer comforted his wife and advised: "There is no other way. There are not many people fleeing the famine now, the situation is not that serious, and food can still be bought. Let's stock up on food and leave quietly."
"But his father... I don't want to flee from the famine. It's better to chew tree bark in my hometown than to be separated from my family on the way to the famine." Li Yueniang's attitude was rare and tough.
Du Laoer knew about Li Yueniang's affairs. Li Yueniang originally fled to them. But on the way to escape, her mother and brother died, and even her father left without even enjoying a few good days.
Du Laoer understood Li Yueniang's rejection.
He wouldn't want to leave if he could help it. Although he was not close to his parents, he had his land and house here. After escaping from famine, not only household registration, land and house, but also everything had to be earned from scratch.
But he was reluctant to leave his family property and go out to find a way out. If it didn't rain for another month, it would be a dead end.
At this moment Du Youling spoke:
"Mom, why don't you just go outside to escape? That's great. It doesn't rain here. Lingbao hasn't seen any flowers or birds for a long time."
After hearing this, Li Yueniang was startled and thoughtful.
Du Youling tugged on her mother's sleeve, shook it, and continued:
"Mom, let's listen to dad and run away together. Let's find a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters. There will be flowers and grass there, and we can grow food well. By then, mom can make garlands for Ling Bao in the spring. .”
Li Yueniang felt a little relieved as she listened to her precious daughter's childish words.
Yes, no one can tell if the drought continues today. If only I could escape to a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters...
When Du Laoer saw that his wife was shaken, he glanced at his daughter approvingly, and then took the opportunity to persuade:
"Yue Niang, I know how difficult it is to escape from famine, but no matter how difficult it is, it is better than starving to death here. I went to look at the fields. It was the time when the wheat was filling, but not a drop of rain fell from the sky, and the soil on the ground was already dry and cracked. .
It is very likely that there will be no harvest again this year, and so many of us will starve to death by then. "
As for why so many people have not fled the famine, it is because they all have hopes and hope that God will send down rain and give the people a way to survive.
But in fact it was a natural disaster and a man-made disaster, force majeure.
At this time, Li Yueniang also figured it out. She hugged Du Youling, who had eyes wide open and was very smart at first sight, and looked at her husband and said.
"I listen to you, dad."
Du Youling was the first to be happy: "Okay, okay, so our family can go to a nice place with mountains and water together. In spring, mother can make Chinese toon scrambled eggs for Lingbao. When summer comes, My brothers will also go up the mountain to pick fruits for Lingbao to eat."
Li Yueniang really smiled and said, "Okay, I will make Chinese toon scrambled eggs for our Lingbao next spring and feed our little greedy cat."
