Sihu nodded and quickly ran to Lin Dahu's side. The so-called making an ox cart was actually just making a frame so that the pallet cart could be attached to the ox cart. It was not the ox cart that was commonly used nowadays.
After a while, Sihu ran over and said to Ye Chuqiu: "Mom, the eldest brother said that there is still some hemp rope needed. He has to find some vines to finish it."
"It's okay, the hemp rope girl is here."
Ye Chuqiu said, rummaging around in the backpack again, and then pulled out a roll of hemp rope, "Go, give it to your big brother."
With the hemp rope, it was easier to hook up the cart. Not long after, Lin Dahu finished the cart and pulled it in front of Ye Chuqiu. "Mom, we can put all our things on it from now on."
"Very good." Ye Chuqiu nodded, "Then let's set off. It's probably about two hours. If we don't leave, people will come to chase us away."
"knew."
Lin Dahu responded, brought the cow over, helped Ye Chuqiu and Wufeng get into the carriage, then called his wife and several younger brothers, and led the cow out.
Seeing Wufeng coming up, Ye Chuqiu quietly stuffed her with gum again. The four tigers seemed to have seen something and looked at Ye Chuqiu, "Mom, did you give your sister something delicious?"
Wufeng straightened his head and looked at him blankly. Facing her questioning eyes, Sihu had some self-doubt, "Did I see it wrong?"
"You talk the most, and you can give your mother's things to whomever she likes. Don't make your mother unhappy."
Erhu walked over and carried him forward.
"But I'm so tired. My feet are worn out. I want to ride a bull, okay?" Sihu looked pitiful.
"Dahei has pulled enough things, you are not allowed to ride." Lin Dahu said as he fed some hay into the cow's mouth.
"Humph." Sihu was furious, but he didn't dare to say more.
Soon after leaving the village, Li Youmei hurriedly came over and looked at Ye Chuqiu and the others eagerly, "Sister-in-law?"
"I've cooked a vat of porridge for you, take it and share it."
Ye Chuqiu asked Zhao Hehua to take out the porridge, but he passed Li Youmei and handed it to Chai Chunfang. Li Youmei's stretched out hand paused in mid-air.
"Sister-in-law, I am the second sister-in-law, why don't you give it to me?" She has always been outspoken. If she is unhappy, she will say it directly.
"I'm afraid that you are corrupt." Ye Chuqiu also said bluntly, "The third brother and sister are honest, so we should get a fair share."
Li Youmei's face froze, "Sister-in-law, in your heart, am I this kind of person?"
"Yes." Ye Chuqiu nodded.
Li Youmei's face became even stiffer. Shouldn't a normal person say no?
"Okay, let's go and divide it. Once you're done dividing it, hurry up and hit the road. It's afternoon now and the weather is getting cooler."
Ye Chuqiu said something. Although Li Youmei was unhappy, they didn't have any food in their hands and they all had to look after Ye Chuqiu. How could they dare to be quarrelsome with her.
Although she had said before that she would starve to death without eating anything, she had already been laughed at by her family. It seemed that it would not be a big deal if she laughed at her a few more times. It was more important to have a full stomach.
Everyone ate very quickly and finished eating in a short time. There was no need to wash the bowls. Everyone took their own bowls and chopsticks, scraped them clean with a spoon, and licked the spoons clean.
Ye Chuqiu looked away, hey, there's a water shortage. People don't even have enough water to drink. How can there be water to wash the dishes?
There was really no way to pay attention to hygiene while escaping with little food and clothing.
As they walked forward, it got dark again. Ye Chuqiu had been riding in a bullock cart for a whole day. The bumps along the way almost broke her butt into eight pieces, but compared to them walking, it was better after all.
"Mom, where shall we rest tonight?"
Due to the destruction of Lusu City, there were more and more refugees on the road, and all the flat and open places were occupied by others.
"How else can I rest? Let's use the sky as a quilt and the earth as a bed."
Ye Chuqiu said something and sighed leisurely.
Is there any time traveler who is worse off than her? For so many days, she has even slept on a bed. There is a tent in the space, but this tent is so special that she dare not use it.
There are many mosquitoes in the wilderness, and mosquitoes fly around from time to time, which not only makes her upset, but also makes her red and swollen after a bite.
Ye Chuqiu hadn't taken a shower, washed her face or hair for many days. She didn't dare to imagine what she looked like now, but looking at Zhao Hehua and the others, she could probably tell. She must be unkempt and unsightly.
Appearance is secondary, but if you don’t take a shower in the summer, not only will you feel uncomfortable, but you will also be prone to fleas and lice in your hair.
Recently, Ye Chuqiu felt that her scalp was extremely itchy. When she stretched out her hand and pinched a louse on her head, she almost wanted to shave her head.
A few more days have passed since they fled the famine. In these days, Ye Chuqiu and the others only have one meal of porridge every day. Compared with other refugees, it is still not as good as other refugees. You must know that many people eat boiled bark and hay.
.
In order to cook food, Ye Chuqiu and the others always looked for a place far away from the refugees. Firstly, they were afraid of being robbed by others, and secondly, they did not want to irritate them.
There is a saying that says, you eat delicacies from the mountains and seas, and I eat bark and chaff, I won't be jealous; but, you have to eat in front of me, and you have to smack your mouth, which makes people unhappy.
"Mom, there is a city ahead."
After coming out of Lusu City, everyone walked on the road to escape for another eight days, and finally saw another city.
Ye Chuqiu was sitting on the bullock cart and saw the city from a distance. The high city wall was covered with flags. It looked more majestic than Lusu City.
"Let's go there quickly."
Seeing this city, Ye Chuqiu also had a smile on her face. Not to mention anything else, as long as she entered the city, she could take out the things that were inconvenient to take out in her space. She just said that she was in the city.
Just buy it.
Without her instructions, when Lin Dahu saw the city, his footsteps became a little brisker. He gently waved his whip and patted Dahei's body. Dahei seemed to understand what he meant, and spread his hoofs.
Started running.
Getting closer and closer to the city, the road was full of human and animal excrement, and the stench was overwhelming. Like Lusu City, this city was also crowded with refugees. Their clothes were ragged. Compared with the refugees I saw in Lusu City before,
It seems even more miserable.
"Baby, wake up, if something happens to you, what will the children do..."
"Nanny, we will arrive at Donghui City soon. Once we enter the city, there are a lot of delicious food in the city. You have to hold on."
"My only child is you. If you die, how will you live?"
Walking towards Lusu City, there were countless cries. When Ye Chuqiu looked around, he seemed to be seeing a purgatory on earth.
However, she has no choice, she is just a refugee who is looking for survival and is in danger.
