Duan Mingjing and Mrs. Liu tasted this plain-looking rice ball, but who knew it would have a different taste after eating it.

Although it is not as good as the fine clothes and fine food before, but under such circumstances, there is still food to eat, which can only be said to be good.

Mrs. Liu took a bite, looked at the rice ball in her hand, and then looked at her husband next to her.

He broke open the rice ball in his hand and handed half of it to Duan Mingqing, "I have a small appetite and can't eat that much. You can eat more."

Duan Mingqing had already swallowed most of the rice ball in his hand. He smiled at his wife and said, "Sanniang, you eat, I will just eat these. Mom said there will be more later."

As he spoke, he seemed to have remembered something, so he walked over to the carriage, pulled out a water bag and handed it to Mrs. Liu, "Drink some water, don't choke."

Mrs. Liu was so moved by her husband's care that she took the water bag with a smile and still handed over the rice ball, "I really can't eat it."

"We have a long walk today, please eat more."

Duan Mingjing on the side had already finished his rice balls and was still a little unfinished. Hearing the conversation between the couple felt strange.

What a big rice ball. It’s not enough for half a bowl of rice. I push it around and it seems like I can’t finish it!

He looked at his wife Shang, who was also looking at him.

When Mrs. Shang saw Duan Mingjing staring at her and listened to what her siblings said, she thought her husband was not full, so she gave him a portion of the rice ball in her hand.

Duan Mingjing immediately said with a straight face, "What are you doing? Eat it yourself! When you finish eating, go back to the car and see the child. Mom bought so much food, so I won't starve!"

He, Duan Mingjing, has not been reduced to robbing his wife of her food!

"I know." Mr. Shang nodded and chewed the rice ball in his hand.

Several children were sitting in front of the carriage, eating rice balls in their hands.

Duan Yuxing is an optimistic person, he is very happy when he can eat when he is hungry.

"Grandma is so amazing. She has stored so much food! Did grandma know that something was going to happen? She took us right away!" Duan Yuxing said, holding the rice ball in his hand and eating happily.

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has intention, even if the speaker is a child.

Duan Mingqing thought carefully about the changes in these days, including the fact that the old lady asked him to sell the child, which all revealed something strange.

The old lady didn't like him before and mostly ignored him.

It was said that she was going to sell her child. According to the old lady's past temperament, she would definitely be unyielding if things didn't work out. It was strange to expose her gently this time.

Duan Mingchen quickly finished the rice ball in his hand and continued to lead the horse on the road. He did not take the words of the children at home to heart.

What matters is not whether the old lady knows it, but what happens after this journey.

Xu of the Duan family set out on the road early, and there were only two or three people on the road who were fleeing like them.

Most of them were ordinary people carrying baggage and children on their way.

Duan Mingchen looked around and saw that the poor people all looked frightened, with the misery of having to leave their hometown.

After reading the books of sages for so many years, Duan Mingchen has always wanted to do something for the people in this world, so that he will not let everything down. Now it seems that he is just one of the ants.

It’s better to escape with peace of mind!

Qiao Lan in the car didn't know that her family was thinking so much. She began to think about what to do to cope with lunch and dinner.

Qiao Lan is not in a hurry, but the system is.

[Host, the time is coming soon! Don’t be in a hurry! As long as you make a little more progress, your mission will be completed! 】

"I know, I know!"

Qiao Lan was still boiling water and adding charcoal to the small stove.

It is midsummer now, and the carriage compartment is not very spacious. Cooking in the carriage is not as hot as it is, but the smell of smoke and fire is too great.

But where can I cook if I don’t have to cook in the car?

Hearing the children coughing, Qiao Lan looked up at them.

Several children covered their mouths and coughed one after another. When Qiao Lan raised her head, they couldn't help but lower their voices, as if they were afraid that she would be angry.

Even though the curtains in front of the car are open, the cabin is too small, so the smoke cannot easily get out and will more or less float to the front.

"There's a lot of smoke in the car, please change to another car," Qiao Lan said.

As a growing child, it is not good to smell too much cigarette smoke.

Duan Yutao shook his head, "Grandma, I'm not leaving. I'm here to help you."

Duan Yutao looked at Qiao Lan with bright eyes. He knew something very serious had happened. Although he still didn't understand what it was, his father had said that he was a boy and would support the Duan family in the future. How to support it?

Duan Yutao of the Duan family didn't understand either. His father said that he just listened to his grandma and helped her to make her happy!

Duan Yutao's original fear of the old lady disappeared under this rice ball.

Socializing with children is very simple. He likes whoever treats him well. After eating Qiao Lan's delicious rice balls, Duan Yutao now likes his grandma very much.

Qiao Lan looked at Duan Yutao, whose eyes were shining, thinking that the child was not full and wanted to ask her for something to eat.

Qiao Lan grabbed the sweet potato lying behind her back, peeled and sliced ​​it, put it in a bowl and handed it to several children.

"When I'm full, I'll change to another car. It's not good to smell too much cigarette smoke... ahem," Qiao Lan said, choking herself.

Just a moment later, Qiao Lan suddenly looked up and saw several children in the carriage holding sweet potatoes in their hands, looking at her with brighter eyes.

?

Still want to eat?

The child accumulates food after eating too much.

The carriage swayed and continued to move forward, and the system's chattering did not stop.

[Host, there’s one and a half hours left! Work harder! The mission progress has reached 92%! It’s just a tiny bit short of progress. Don’t you think it’s a pity if you miss the first mission? 】

"What a pity! But there's nothing I can do! I'm running for my life now! How can I win people's hearts?"

[How about the host go out and say something? Encourage and comfort them?] The system starts to give ideas.

"Do you think this old lady would encourage someone who comforts them?" Qiao Lan complained silently in her heart.

With my temperament, I haven't been close to my family for decades, and now that I'm suddenly close, people might notice something is wrong.

【Host……】

Qiao Lan interrupted the voice in her head, "Stop! I will definitely complete the task! But you gave me too little time, and you still have to run for your life. This is really not the time to do the task."

The carriage walked onto the flat official road and met more and more convoys along the way.

There were many men and women wearing brocade clothes among them, but all of them were in messy clothes, with haggard faces, and looked panicked while sitting on the carriage.

In comparison, the Duan family seems to be more energetic.

There was a sudden scream, and several figures suddenly dropped from the carriage accompanying them.

Everyone looked towards the figure and saw a young-looking woman and a three or four-year-old child.
