Fleeing From Famine, My Entire Family Was Reborn

In their previous lives, Su Yin, her mother, and her sister-in-law were brutally mu*dered by a mob. In a twist of fate, all three were reborn together.

Before the mob could reach their villag...

Chapter 111: Hurrying on the Road

"The road is wider and smoother now. You come and catch up for a while. I'll go to the car to sew something."

"Okay." Su Baozhu took the reins from her and drove the cart in an orderly manner.

Su Yin got into the car, took out the cotton and linen cloth from the back, and prepared to start cutting.

Mother Su put down the cloth for making shoe soles in her hand and asked curiously, "Yinyin, are you going to make an inner garment?"

"No, I'm making something else useful."

"What?"

Su's mother saw her cutting cotton and linen cloth and handling cotton.

"Are you going to make a cushion?"

If it were to be used as a cushion, that would be too luxurious.

"No. Mom, you'll know in a moment."

"You girl, you are so mysterious." Su's mother muttered, ignored her and continued to sew the soles of shoes.

Su Yin had seen the menstrual belt made by Su's mother before. Su Yin took part of the essence of the menstrual belt and sanitary napkin and started to make Su Yin brand sanitary napkins.

Su Yin pressed the cotton bit by bit to make it into a thin long strip. It took her an incense stick of time to do this alone. Then she sewed it into the shape of a sanitary belt and stuffed the long strip of simplified "sanitary napkin" into the sanitary belt to replace the wood ash.

Mother Su looked at the menstrual belt she made and opened her mouth slightly. "Girl, you used this fine linen and cotton to make this. Even the family of the rich man is not as extravagant as you."

She tapped Su Yin's forehead with her finger.

Knowing her daughter's temper, she couldn't stop her and could only talk about it. Although she felt pained, she didn't stop her.

Su Yin had prepared some words to say, but she didn't expect her mother to say anything more, leaving her with nothing to say.

But it was okay, Su Yin made "Su Yin Brand" sanitary napkins peacefully in the carriage.

This thing is useful to all three women in the family.

Zhang Bingliang was driving the cart, and Old Man Zhang was sitting on one side. The two of them watched Su Yin's team getting farther and farther away from their home.

Old man Zhang couldn't help but urged: "Hurry up."

Zhang Bingliang nodded, "Okay."

As he quickened his pace, the ox cart behind him also had to speed up, and naturally the other people walking also had to quicken their pace.

It was fine at the beginning, but as time went on, they lost their physical strength and found it increasingly difficult to walk.

The second daughter-in-law of the Zhang family nudged her husband with her elbow and said, "Go and tell Dad to slow down. I have been jogging all the way. If I continue like this, I will not be able to bear it."

The children in the family all rode in horse-drawn carriages or ox-drawn carts, but now it was the adults who suffered.

Among the adults, except for the father-in-law and the mother-in-law, the rest had to walk. Although they didn't have to push the cart or carry luggage, the speed was too fast.

The third wife saw that the second sister-in-law had gone to talk to her, so she stopped urging her husband. With someone else speaking up, they didn't have to speak up.

The second son looked at his wife sweating profusely, gritted his teeth and rushed to the carriage in front.

"Dad, can you slow down?"

Old man Zhang looked at his second son and asked, "What's wrong? Can't walk anymore?"

"It's too fast. We can't catch up." The second brother looked miserable.

"You're really useless. Look at Miss Su and her group, they can walk so fast, why can't you?" Old Man Zhang scolded unhappily.

The second son of the Zhang family frowned even deeper, "Dad, every household has a horse-drawn carriage or an ox-drawn carriage, and the adults take turns riding, so they naturally go fast. We can't do that."

"Okay, your mother and I will come down and walk, and it's your turn to come up and take a rest." Old man Zhang said.

"Dad, that's not what I meant."

"That's not what I meant. Let's go quickly. We can't get too far away from Miss Su and the others."

After experiencing two incidents, Old Man Zhang felt that it was safer to follow Su Yin.

Zhang Laoer came back with a bitter face, and his wife glared at him fiercely.

"It's no use."

"Wife, I..."

Although Old Man Zhang said that, he also understood that it would be a bit difficult for him to catch up with them and not fall behind.

Their conditions are much better than our own.

Old man Zhang told his eldest son, "Slow down."

"Okay." Zhang Bingliang said, "I'll let my second brother get on and drive the car, and I'll go down and take a walk."

"OK."

Su Yin and his group, who were walking at the front, passed group after group of fleeing people.

Some of these teams are similar to theirs, with several households forming a team, and some are huge teams of hundreds. These all migrate together as a village or a clan unit.

But more often than not, brothers from one or two households fled together.

Su Yin and his group moved very quickly, which attracted the attention of many fleeing teams, and many people cast envious glances at them.

After leaving Anping County, we rushed for 30 kilometers without stopping along the way as the sun gradually set.

We have now left Anping County, or more precisely, Nanping County.

Su Yin looked at the boundary marker not far away, on which were clearly written the words "Nanshan County".

The map in Su Yin's pocket only recorded Lingxi County and Nanping County, and nothing else.

Su Yin was completely in the dark and knew nothing about this.

"Fatty, what's going on up ahead?"

Mr. Wan San had been driving the bus for the entire afternoon and his butt was almost broken in two. He just asked Doctor Li to drive the bus while he got off the bus to take a walk.

"This is Yunhe County, which belongs to Nanshan County. The situation in Nanshan County is the same as that in Nanping County, which is not very good. My suggestion is that you should not stay in Nanshan County for long, and it is best to rush to Jinghe County as quickly as possible. After passing through Jinghe County, you will leave Meizhou and enter Linzhou. When you arrive in Linzhou, if you go south, you can go to the dock of Linzhou Prefecture. There are ships there that can go south to the south, which will save you a lot of effort than traveling now."

Su Yin silently wrote down everything he said, these were all valuable strategies.

"Fatty, where are you going? To Jiangnan, or?"

"After arriving at Linzhou City, I will head north. I have some properties in Linzhou City, and I will pay you there."

Su Yin nodded, feeling very happy at the thought of earning 50,000 taels of silver immediately.

Fifty thousand taels is the capital for her future livelihood.

"Fatty, is there any suitable place to camp ahead?"

Master Wan San thought for a moment and said, "There is a place where we can camp, but I don't know what the situation is like there. If we go three or five miles ahead, there will be a post station and a simple foot shop built by the nearby villagers."

"Okay, let's go over there and take a look."

After driving for about four miles, we saw several abandoned foot shops and tea stalls in front of us.

There were already people in the foot shop, but fortunately there was no one in the tea shed, so Su Yin and his group of seven began to set up camp with the tea shed as the center.

While they were setting up camp, the Zhang family kept chasing them.

"It's almost dark, why haven't we seen Miss Su and her group yet?" Old man Zhang was a little anxious.

"Dad, do we still need to continue on our journey?" asked the third son of the Zhang family.

"Hurry up."

Other refugees gradually looked for suitable places to camp and rest.

The Zhang family prepared to travel day and night to catch up with Su Yin and his group.

Some people were worried when they saw them still on the road so late at night. The head of the village, which consisted of hundreds of people, stopped them.
