"Yiyi, as long as you have tasted it, we will be relieved."

Yun Yiyi raised her head proudly, "Third brother, that's for sure. I'm such a picky person."

After everyone finished eating the jujube cakes, they rested for a while.

Butcher Yun and Big Brother Yun continued to carry water, while the others continued to dig wild vegetables.

When Yun the Butcher returned just now, he had already told the village chief about finding the pond.

The village chief also told the villagers, but at this time, most of the villagers were outside digging wild vegetables and collecting firewood.

If they wanted to carry water, they had to wait for those who had gone out to return before they could start. Later, the village chief and the elders discussed it and decided to set aside time this afternoon for everyone to carry water.

So, this time Yun the butcher had to carry the water himself.

After Butcher Yun and Brother Yun filled the water jars, he drove the mule cart back.

At this moment, Zhang took out everyone's dirty clothes to wash, and hung them on the big rocks outside to dry while the sun was shining.

Butcher Yun took the full water tank off the mule cart, and then moved Zhang's empty water tank back onto the cart.

Zhang suddenly remembered, "Head of the household, please take our two large wooden basins. Let the children use them when washing wild vegetables."

"Okay, I'll get it now." After saying that, Yun the Butcher found two large wooden basins on the cart and moved them onto the mule cart.

"Wife, I'm going to carry water next."

"Okay, got it."

When Yun the Butcher arrived at the foot of the mountain, he first moved the two large wooden basins to the side of the pond.

"Big brother, second brother, I brought the wooden basin over here. You can use it when you wash the wild vegetables later."

"I understand, Dad." Brother Yun took the bucket and started carrying water down the mountain.

Yun Yiyi and Xie Zirui worked very quickly. With their efforts, they picked all the wild celery in the nearby area.

"Brother Zirui, let's carry the wild celery to the pond and wash it together."

"Okay, Yiyi."

So, the two of them carried wild celery to the pond one trip at a time.

By the time they finished transporting the wild celery, both of them were sweating all over.

Yun Yiyi sat down on a rock beside the pool, and kept splashing water on her face, and she felt cool after a while.

Xie Zirui followed suit, splashing water on his face while thinking that life without studying wouldn't be easy either.

"Brother Zirui, when you were studying, did you ever think about not studying?"

"Honestly, Yiyi. I used to think that studying with the teacher and completing the homework assigned by the teacher was a very difficult thing."

"However, now that I don't have to face my teacher's homework every day, I miss those days very much."

"I could never have imagined the life I have now. What I appreciate most in my life now is freedom."

"No one forces me to study every day, and I don't have to worry about homework. I can go a month or two without touching a book."

"Brother Zirui, you're right. We're all busy fleeing the famine every day, and your teacher isn't with you, so naturally you don't have to study."

Xie Zirui was silent for a moment, "However, after experiencing my current life, I still prefer my previous life."

"There's so little I can do right now. If it weren't for Uncle Yun and Auntie taking me in, I can't even guarantee how long I could survive."

"I don't like this feeling of powerlessness."

Yun Yiyi was deeply moved by this. She, too, couldn't change her current life. Life was full of frustrations.

"Brother Zirui, just treat your current life as a short vacation. Unpleasant days will always pass."

Xie Zirui nodded, "Yes, even if we are fleeing famine, we will eventually reach our destination."

"Brother Zirui, although our current life is not satisfactory, it is not something you can encounter whenever you want. So this can be considered an alternative experience.

When we are all old and gray, we can tell our grandchildren that we have also experienced fleeing famine.

However, I still hope that we can live a peaceful life, instead of living in the midst of natural and man-made disasters like we do now.

"These days, I feel unsafe every day. I can't find peace of mind."

Xie Zirui looked at Yun Yiyi in surprise. He didn't expect Yun Yiyi's idea to be so special.

On the way to escape famine, Xie Zirui met all kinds of people. Yunjia Village was a rather special village.

After fleeing famine for so long, the lack of food and water, and the disaster in the capital city, the population of Yunjia Village did not decrease.

It is said that when disaster strikes, everyone flees, but the people of Yunjia Village have persisted until now under the leadership of the village chief and clan elders.

In this way, it can be considered a big miracle.

Xie Zirui also discovered that the people in Yunjia Village all had hope and light in their eyes.

Especially Yun Yiyi's family, which left a particularly deep impression on me.

However, it must be said that Yun Yiyi is the most special person in the Yun family. Many times, Yun Yiyi has influenced the Yun family and even the Yunjia Village.

Yun Yiyi is a very special person. Xie Zirui sometimes feels that she is an innocent and lovely child.

Sometimes, he felt that Yun Yiyi was a wise man with great wisdom.

Sometimes, he felt that Yun Yiyi was like a decisive general.

Yun Yiyi is like a treasure box, it looks different every time you open it.

Xie Zirui is a precocious child, but even so, he feels that he is too immature compared to Yun Yiyi.

This also resulted in Xie Zirui always wanting to follow Yun Yiyi and see her different faces.

Yun Yiyi's words today made Xie Zirui realize that Yun Yiyi is a person with dreams and great love.

Xie Zirui had never experienced the hardships of the working class before. Now he has a deep understanding of the difficulties of life.

Today's conversation had a profound impact on Xie Zirui's future life and planted a seed for his diligence and love for the people.

"Yiyi, as long as we reach Yunzhou, you will find that the life there will be something you like."

"Even though there are still many dissatisfactions, it is still much better than our lives."

Yun Yiyi glanced at Xie Zirui in surprise, "Brother Zirui, you seem to know a lot about Yunzhou?"

Xie Zirui blinked in panic, "Yes, I know him very well. My husband is from Yunzhou."

"Brother Zirui, so when we get to Yunzhou, you can also seek refuge with your husband!"

Xie Zirui didn't expect Yun Yiyi to react so quickly. "Yes, but my husband doesn't go out often, so the possibility of meeting him is not high."

"Of course, it would be a good thing if I encountered it."
