Gu Lan didn't expect Zhu'er's reaction to be so big.

She hurriedly caught up with the pillar and pulled him back.

It's so dark on the way, what if you encounter danger.

Zhu Erqi's chest rose and fell, and there was crying in his shouting voice: "My sister is not willing to exchange us for money, why do you want to exchange yourself for money?" You might as well sell me to Mrs. Wang!" ”

What's going on here?

Gu Lan thought about it for a while, and then thought that before her father died, such an incident had indeed happened.

My father and mother both died of illness, and before they died, they spent a lot of money to hire a doctor, and the money flowed out, and the Gu family was naturally unhappy.

gave Gu Lan an idea, asking her to pick one of her younger brothers and sisters and sell them to Mrs. Wang.

Mrs. Wang is a pious woman outside the village, who often does some human trafficking, which family wants a girl, she has a clear heart.

It was rumored in the village that the children she sold would not end well.

can't bear the amount of money given by Mrs. Wang, and some people will still sell their children.

Gu Lan's four brothers and sisters all picked on the advantages of their father and mother, and none of them were ugly.

Mrs. Gu persuaded Gu Lan to sell Liang'er, he was smart by nature, although his face was yellow and thin, he could also see that he must be a handsome young man when he grew up.

Mrs. Wang came at that time and wanted to take Liang'er away.

It was Gu Lan who stopped her like crazy and wanted to sell her younger brothers and sisters, unless she was sold first!

Later, when his father died, their lives became more and more difficult, and Gu Lan never mentioned the matter of selling her younger siblings.

Instead, he worked harder in the ground, cut pigweed to feed the pigs, and did all the work at home, just to let the Gu family feed his younger brothers and sisters.

Even so, the Gu family still had to separate from them.

During this period, another incident happened, Zhao Fusheng, who originally made a marriage contract with Gu Lan, divorced from her, and re-established a marriage contract with Gu Xinghua in the second room.

And the relationship between the original owner and Zhao Fusheng is not bad.

Thinking of all this, Gu Lan understood why the two younger brothers reacted so much.

In the most difficult time, Gu Lan would rather endure hardships and hardships than sell them.

Now that they depend on each other, how can they be willing to exchange their sister's happiness for food that can fill their stomachs.

Gu Lan's nose was sour, in her last life, she was an orphan, lonely, she never had a family in her life, she devoted herself to work in the first half of her life, and made a career by herself, but sometimes when she returned to an empty home, she would indeed envy the lights of other people's homes.

Now she also has a family, and she doesn't have to sell her happiness for a family member who survives.

At this moment, Gu Lan completely accepted the fate of her crossing.

From now on, she is the real Gu Lan.

Gu Lan no longer persuaded her younger brother, but hung the pheasant under the beam, she looked at her younger siblings and asked seriously: "If we don't accept it, we will definitely be hungry for a while, are you afraid of hunger?" ”

Zhu'er swallowed his saliva, the water in the pot was already boiling, but he still turned his face away: "Hungry, hungry, I'm not afraid!" I'll go look for wild vegetables early tomorrow morning! ”

"I'm not afraid, I'll go with my eldest brother to find wild vegetables!" Liang Er is also very energetic.

Zhu'er snuggled in Gu Lan's arms, and her little belly gurgled with hunger, but she just hugged Gu Lan's neck with two cotton-soft little hands, not crying or making trouble.

A burst of softness rose in Gu Lan's heart.

She secretly decided to go into the mountain early tomorrow morning to try the system's search function while the sickle was still in her hand.

I only hope that there is no endless road!

The four siblings drank a bowl of warm hot water and snuggled up on a broken kang and fell asleep.

Early the next morning, when the sky outside was slightly bright, Gu Lan woke up to the sound of hunger one after another.

Yesterday, before going to bed, she smeared the herbs given by Old Man Shao, and early this morning, she felt that her head didn't hurt so much, she was hungry.

I was so hungry that I panicked and wanted to eat everything I saw.

Gu Lan tiptoed out of bed and searched around the room again, but still didn't find anything.

There wasn't even a single mouse in the house.

When she went out and saw the pheasant hanging on the beam, Gu Lan's heart was a little shaken.

But soon, Zhu'er came out, he took the sleepy-eyed Liang'er, and whispered: "Sister, yesterday the people in the village told us where there were wild vegetables, you wait at home, and we will come back in a while." ”

The two children were sensible, Gu Lan nodded, touched their yellowed and rough hair and said, "Be careful, don't go to the foot of the mountain." ”

"Okay, I know!"

There were no accidents this time, Gu Lan finally lit the stove, and Zhu'er and Liang'er came back with two handfuls of wild vegetables.

They tore them apart by hand and threw them into boiling water, they didn't have an iron pot at home, only a clay pot, which was still used to cook medicine when their father used to be sick.

The Gu family was discouraged, so they gave them the jar.

Otherwise, they don't even have anything to cook.

Gu Lan's heart was sour, there was no salt and no seasoning, so she cooked wild vegetables like this, and broke a few wicker sticks as chopsticks.

The four children took turns to eat, one bite at a time, and they didn't even let go of the wild vegetable soup in the jar.

Although there is no nutrition, there is something in her stomach, and Gu Lan has a little more strength.

To be honest, the wild vegetable soup is really not delicious, bitter and astringent.

Gu Lan had never eaten such an unpalatable thing in her life, but several children were treated as treasures, and Liang Er accidentally missed a mouthful of vegetable soup, and they were all blamed by Zhu'er.

Even the youngest pearl has no complaints, and eats with relish.

They all pushed and asked Gu Lan to eat more, but Gu Lan did not refuse, she wanted to enter the mountain, and she had to eat a full stomach to ensure that her physical strength was sufficient.

By the time they had finished their breakfast, the sun was finally warming up from the top of the mountain.

Gu Lan didn't say that she was going to enter the mountain, only that she was going to return Li Dani's iron sickle and let Zhu'er watch her younger brothers and sisters at home.

When she came back from the mountain, a few people went to find Old Man Shao to return the pheasant.

Following yesterday's road into the mountain, without Old Man Shao's guidance, Gu Lan knew how difficult it was to enter the mountain.

This is not like a mountain that has been built in the previous life, but a primitive mountain that has not been developed at all, and you have to be careful with your feet every step you take.

Gu Lan had the habit of camping in her previous life and knew some knowledge of survival in the wild, so she tied her clothes tightly at her wrists and ankles as much as possible.

Tap the grass in advance with each step to avoid stepping on the snake.

After some time, she finally walked into the mountains and arrived at the place where she had been looking for her brother yesterday.

It was at this point that the search function on the panel was finally available.

Gu Lan was excited in her heart, she scanned the surroundings to make sure that no one was nearby, so she moved her mind and clicked search.

Looking at the constantly beating pointers on the panel, Gu Lan's heart also rose to her throat.

She stared at the panel, and finally, the pointer stopped, and a plant appeared on the screen.

Gu Lan was very unfamiliar with the plants with triangular branches and leaves, but the cylindrical rhizomes were the cassava she knew!
