Shen Yunxi called Tian Daniu and Tian Xiuli to find the village chief Tian and Yang Dacui, and asked in a low voice: "Auntie, uncle of the village chief, how long will it take to get to Daduguan?" Will it take us time to cross to the south? ”

Tamura nodded and replied, "Yes, you can take a boat to the Ome River to the other side of the river, even if it is to the south." If it goes well, it will take another ten days.

The south is humid and rainy, rich in products, and rich in people. The government will open warehouses to release grain. When the drought has passed, the government will have a residents' newspaper and bring us money and food, and we can go back to our hometowns. ”

I heard that Tamura Chief was familiar with all this, and it was not like the first time he fled from famine.

Shen Yunxi asked, "Uncle Village Chief, how do you know so much?" You've escaped famine more than once, haven't you? ”

When Tamura heard this, he showed a proud expression.

The local government ran out of food. It's too far away. The grain sent by the imperial court can only be stored for three catties, which is too expensive. Later, the government acquiesced and even encouraged us to flee the famine. It's best to go with us all the way and bring food. It's hard, but it's better to stay at home and starve. ”

Listening to Village Chief Tian's words, Shen Yunxi was stunned and couldn't help asking: "Uncle Village Chief, our place is poor and there are many disasters. Why would you flee from famine instead of settling in the South? ”

When Tian Village Chief and his wife Yang Dacui heard this, they shook their heads and sighed: "People are far away from home." We are not locals. We stayed there and couldn't understand what people were saying. The locals looked down on us. After the famine, it is better to go back to your hometown. ”

Yang Dacui also nodded in agreement: "The golden nest and the silver nest are not as good as our kennels." No one in their homeland looks down on us. Not only do they look down on us, they are bullied outside.

In addition, we have no money and no food. We can't buy a house and a business locally. If we stay there, we can't live well. We'd better go home. As long as there is no flooding, the house and yard are still there and the fields can continue to be cultivated. ”

People around them also say that it's not good to stay in the local area. They are full of gossip. In any case, they would rather flee the famine than stay there.

Shen Yunxi is the opposite. She didn't want to run away from the wilderness every few years. When she gets to the South, she will find a way to stay in the South.

It's too early to say that. Even the well-informed Tian village chief was reluctant to stay, let alone the villagers who went with the flow.

When Shen Yunxi was chatting with the village chief's uncle and aunt, Tian Yuncui, who was not far away, looked at this from time to time and whispered, "Grandma! ”

Old Man Tian's face was gloomy, and he hurriedly shouted: "Shut up, don't you feel ashamed?" ”

Tian Yuncui rolled her eyes because of her father's reprimand, she was not honest. "Mother, I haven't drunk rice porridge for several days. I want to drink porridge. ”

The Tian family's eldest daughter-in-law, Zheng Guizhen, and second daughter-in-law, Zhang Shuxiang, kept rolling their eyes when they heard their sister-in-law's words. The rice porridge at home was eaten by the in-laws, and the in-laws also recognized it. It is believed that their juniors are filial to their elders, but sisters-in-law alone can eat more than half. Through the robbery, they were only able to grab half a bowl of porridge for the child.

The two daughters-in-law have not drunk rice porridge since they left home.

Mrs. Tian didn't want to eat wild vegetable dumplings either. She just saw her eldest daughter-in-law roll her eyes, and she was immediately upset. "Boss, you can borrow half a bag of rice from your fourth brother and sister in the future, and we will return it to them when we go back."

Zheng Guizhen was just caught by her mother-in-law and rolled her eyes. She felt guilty. She knew that the old woman was very good at pretending. She would be miserable in front of her son, shed tears, and say a few plausible words. Her man is like a beast. He felt that she was at odds with her mother-in-law, so he began to beat her.

At first she resisted, but the man even beat his two daughters. In order to protect their children, Jung Gye-jin had to accept them.

Zheng Guizhen also learned to be a man. The mother-in-law asked her to go, so she went: "Okay, mother, I'll go and tell the fourth brother and the fourth brother and sister now." ”

As for the fourth sibling, even if she is unwilling to borrow, she has to try.
