"Lady, lady, how many of the bags around you are ours? Can we take them back?" Niu Shunan said stumblingly, staring at her closely while speaking, and quickly retreated if anything went wrong.

The woman didn't say anything, but swallowed the dry food in her mouth with all her strength, and then said, "Yours?"

"Yes, yes, I didn't lie to you, it was the bandits who robbed our things."

The woman raised her eyebrows, "How many bags?"

"Three in total." Niu Shunan said hurriedly, in fact, there were some bags belonging to other villagers, but they were all separated, and there was no way to help those people.

"Take it." The woman said, and then she started to eat dry food again, and didn't seem to care about these bags.

Gui Xingwang looked at it and felt more and more that this person was suitable for traveling together.

He was capable and not greedy. Staying with such a person, she felt very safe. With the few moves she just made, she should be able to beat him. If she really encountered some bandits who came forward to rob, she should be able to protect herself.

He didn't hesitate and asked directly: "Lady, are you alone? Do you want to go with us?"

"Where are you going?"

"To the edge of the imperial city." Gui Xingwang said quickly, "I know the route to the imperial city. There are more than 20 people here. We can support each other on the road together."

He was very nervous when he said it, for fear that she would refuse.

The woman tilted her head and whispered: "Imperial city?"

She did not respond immediately, but continued to eat dry food.

At this time, Niu Shunan found his and other villagers' bags. He first opened his bag and made sure that there was nothing missing in it, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

Immediately afterwards, he called the person next to him, "Su Lin, is this Zhao Youcai's bag?"

Zhao Youcai is a bastard. He wanted to take it easy and let his wife carry everything. When he ran in a hurry, Chen left these bags behind. If she had escaped, she would probably be scolded to death by Zhao Youcai.

But knowing that, he took his own bag and it was not easy to take other people's bags.

When he was about to turn around, Niu Shunan was startled by someone who suddenly came over, "Lady, lady, I didn't take much, I just took the three bags that were agreed in advance."

The woman's eyes did not fall on the bag, but stared at him closely: "You just said, Su Lin?"

Niu Shunan was puzzled, could it be that the lady and Su Lin knew each other?

He didn't say anything, but his eyes subconsciously glanced to the other side. Su Lin was bending over and didn't know what he was digging, and didn't notice them.

At this time, Su Lin was digging the soil.

He didn't need to show up when he came here together. The bandits all fled with bare hands. A lot of things were left here. Some edible food could be seen in some scattered bags.

It was a pity that he couldn't take it.

He happened to see a few weeds growing on a piece of land, so he took a stone and started digging.

"Are you Su Lin?"

Su Lin was not surprised to hear the question from the person behind him, because he had heard footsteps long before she spoke. He turned around and showed a simple smile, "Lady, what do you want?"

The woman glanced at him for a few times, and suddenly raised the corners of her lips, "Su Lin, long time no see."

"???" Su Lin frowned, could it be that the original body knew her?

The smile on the woman's face deepened, "I am Bi Qiao."

On the other side, Xin Yun coaxed the younger child, and the family of four huddled in the crowd, always alert to the people around them.

"Mom, I'm hungry."

Xin Yun's eyes flashed with helplessness, and she gently comforted: "Bear it a little longer, you can find food tomorrow."

The little deer licked his lips, "I want to eat white meat..."

"Shh!" Xin Yun stretched out his hand to cover his mouth, his eyes became serious, "What did mom tell you before?"

The little deer was so scared that he closed his mouth tightly and dared not say anything more.

The old lady at the side felt distressed and couldn't help but say: "Xiaolu is still young..."

"Grandma." Xin Yun looked at her disapprovingly, but didn't say some words. Looking at the grandmother and two children who needed to be taken care of all the time, she felt really tired.

But no matter how tired she was, they were all her responsibility, and she could only bear it.

Xin Yun was not afraid of eating and drinking on the way to escape from the famine.

She was a time traveler. Something happened in the original world. After some things, she got this body now. She was able to continue to live, and the price was to take care of her family for her original body.

A grandmother and two sons.

Xin Yun didn't think this price was difficult, even if she was escaping from the famine, she was not worried.

Because she had a space in her hand, she knew that she would travel through time, so she spent a few days before the crossing to fill the space with supplies. Not to mention an old man and two children, even if it was a hundred people or thousands of people, it would be no problem.

It's just that she can't take it out casually.

In order to be light when fleeing from the famine, they didn't bring any luggage at all. Except for the small bag that the grandmother carried, nothing else was brought.

It was fine when there were few people, and they would not be hungry along the way if they took out food from the space from time to time.

But when there were many people, the bags they carried were not big to begin with, and taking out physical objects and other supplies from the bags would attract some attention from the people around them.

This was not something that had not happened.

She had already noticed a few eyes looking at her from time to time. Originally, their family consisted of young and old, but she was the woman in charge. Plus, she frequently took out food from her luggage, so how could she not attract attention?

Xinyun felt very regretful at this time. She had known that no matter how hungry she was, she shouldn't have exposed her flaws.

"Ms. Xiaolu, your family has a lot of food. No one's children are as well raised as yours. They didn't lose weight during the escape, and they were all fat and white." The woman beside her was angry, and she looked over her head curiously. Looking at the luggage on the old woman's back.

I have been following their family since a few days ago. At first, I just felt that the two grandparents really didn't know the importance of food. They even ate it with open arms on the way to escape the famine. The four of them only had such a small bag. Even if they were all filled with food, they could still hold on. How many days?

When the time comes, the old and the young, plus a beautiful widow, will really have nothing to eat. I am afraid that if they cry and make a fuss, there will always be a distressed man who takes the initiative to send food.

There are two young men in Mrs. He's family who look away from time to time.

They are all inexperienced young men. Seeing such a beautiful and young widow, not to mention having any bad intentions, they can't help but miss her.

In the past few days, Mrs. He often mentioned Xin Yun in front of her family, not to say how good she was, but to say she was not good. She kept talking about her lavish spending, and if this continued, the whole family would starve to death on the road to escape.

They even mentioned the delicious food their family was eating every day. Compared with the bitter paste in their hands, they lived like landlords.

I say this just to prevent them from getting too hot-headed and giving up their food.

But as she spoke, Mrs. He discovered something was wrong.

Xin Yun brought two children. The older one was okay and could still walk on his own, but the younger one had to be carried on the road. All the luggage they had was just a small bag in the hand of Mrs. Xin.

This bag is really not big.

Even a child can pick it up without much effort.

It can't hold much food inside, even if it contains all the food and no other utensils. Based on the amount that their family of four eats every day, such a small bag can only last for five or six days at most.

Mrs. He can't be wrong.

From the time she married a man and took over the food cabinet at home, she has carefully distributed it every day. How much food can last for how many days, and how much each person should share. She has arranged these properly and will never make any mistakes.

According to her calculations, the luggage on Mrs. Xin's back should be almost empty.

But the other thing is that even though she takes out so much food from her bag every day, it is not very empty. She has been walking for nearly ten days now. Not only is her bag not empty, it is even a little bigger than before.

Originally, she was afraid that the young men at home would stare at the beautiful widow.

Later she became more and more curious.

At first, I was wondering if someone else would help their family and secretly give them food.

After watching her for two days, I found that there were many people who had ideas for Xin Yun. After all, she was a young widow and there was no one around her who could support her. There were some gangsters who had some petty thoughts.

It's just that when they go on the road, they are all from the same village, and these gangsters don't dare to bully others in a big way.

She could see clearly, and Xin Yun could also see clearly.

So these days, she has been huddled in the crowd. Basically no one has acted alone, and she has not been seen interacting frequently with other people.

It’s not about finding wild vegetables and wild things in the surrounding areas by yourself, nor is it about being rescued by others.

Why is the luggage in Mrs. Xin's hand still bulging?

The more she paid attention, the more curious she became. When she heard that the baby in Xin Yun's arms wanted to eat, Mrs. He couldn't help but speak. She couldn't grab the Xin family's luggage in front of other people, so it was okay to ask, right?

"I've seen a long time ago that your family only brought one suitcase, and you haven't eaten enough after walking for so many days. We are all from the same village. If you have any ideas for finding food, you should talk to everyone. Don't eat alone as a family. ”

When it comes to food, other people around him turn their attention away.

The most important thing on the road to escape from famine is food. Now that I heard people say there is a way to get food, how could I not care?

"Is the Xin family just such a small bag?"

"I've noticed it before. They go out with a bag, how can they still eat it now?"

"Did I remember it wrong?"

"I remember correctly, someone saw that they brought too little stuff and tried to persuade them."

A small bag is still full after eating. Doesn’t it mean they really know how to get food?

"Mrs. Xin, we are all from the same village. We have helped your family a lot in the past. Your grandson passed away and your granddaughter-in-law was unconscious. They all relied on the village. If there is a way to get food, You can’t hide it.”

The Xin family is really miserable.

Mrs. Xin's son and daughter-in-law died early, leaving behind a young grandson.

After finally raising her little grandson to adulthood, she went to join the army not long after she got married and gave birth to her youngest son. A year or two later, I didn’t know who brought the news, saying that he died accidentally while serving in the army.

As the granddaughter-in-law, Xin Yun could not afford to fall ill.

At that time, apart from Mrs. Xin, there were only two crying children in the family. If it weren't for the help of this family and that family in the village, their family would really not be able to survive now.

If it were the past, forget it.

Every household can still live by relying on their efforts to tend the fields.

But life is hard now, and every household has very little food. Now that the Xin family has a way to get food, who wouldn't be anxious?
