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 18 Stinkweed

People got up one after another, and the silent forest became lively. The laughter of children and the scolding of adults echoed in the mountains and forests.

Su Yin looked at the group of carefree children and a smile appeared on the corner of her lips.

She really hoped that they would remain like this in the future, but she knew that as time went on, they would smile less and less.

She walked to an open space and began to stretch her body, doing a set of simple boxing movements.

Su's mother saw it and asked, "Yinyin, what are you doing?"

"Keep fit."

Mother Su laughed and scolded, "Where did you learn this, kid?"

"I learned it from a bodyguard in town some time ago."

Su's mother didn't ask any more questions.

The little cousin thought it was fun and started to learn from her. But after a while, they found it boring and ran away.

The breakfast was simple. Su's mother made a pot of wild vegetable porridge and some flatbread.

The wild vegetable porridge tasted average, not as good as the meat porridge last night, but it was also excellent for this body. Of course, this porridge was very thick, not the clear wild vegetable porridge that Da Zhuang Niang had.

The team set out, with the village head and Yang Dashu leading the way.

Su Yin's family and her uncle's family were in the front of the team, while many families who relied on manpower to pull carts were at the back.

“Snap”…

Su Yin swatted away the mosquitoes on her body for the Nth time, then raised her hand to look at her arm. The number of red spots from mosquito bites on her arm was twice as many as yesterday, which looked a bit scary.

"This mosquito is so poisonous." Su Yin sighed, inexplicably missing the mosquito repellent perfume.

Mother Su walked up to her side and handed her a piece of grass, "Yinyin, put this on."

"Oh my god! It stinks."

Su Yin suddenly smelled a foul, pungent odor that rushed straight to her head.

"Although stinky grass stinks, it repels mosquitoes. Just bear with it for now."

Either get bitten by mosquitoes or have her nose suffer, between the two, Su Yin decisively chose the latter. The worst that could happen was to plug her nose with something, but the mosquitoes were endless and annoying.

"Mom, where did you pick it?"

How come she didn't see it?

"I saw it on the roadside ahead. Luckily, I, your mother, was quick-witted, otherwise it would have been picked by someone else."

Stinkweed is not a common plant. It is rooted in the soil and does not emit any odor. Once you pull it out of the soil, it will emit a stinky smell that will drive mosquitoes away.

This stench will last for an hour or two, and when the smell dissipates, the mosquito repellent effect will be gone.

They were in the front and middle of the team. If others saw the stinking weed, they would definitely pick it and would not be left at the back, so Su's mother picked this one, which was considered a lucky one that slipped through the net.

"Mom, I'm going to take a look ahead."

"Okay, forget it if there's none."

"Okay."

Su Yin walked out of the woods, crossed the long line of people, and rushed to the front.

"Su girl, what are you doing?" asked Yang Lizheng.

Yang Lizheng and his maternal grandfather's family are from the same branch of the family. So Su Yin has to call Yang Lizheng the third maternal grandfather.

"Third Grandfather, nothing, just find some stinky grass."

"Okay, just walk behind Uncle Big Tree."

Yang Dashu smiled and said, "This stinking grass is hard to find. We only saw two or three plants along the way."

"Girl, you have to open your eyes wide to look for it." Butcher Yang joked.

Su Yin used her hands to pry open her eyelids, "Uncle, do you think my eyes are wide open?"

“Big, hahahaha.”

Suddenly, Su Yin saw a stinky weed behind the bushes and pulled it out before anyone could react.

Butcher Yang was surprised, "Oh, you are different when you open your eyes wide. You found one so quickly."

As soon as he finished speaking, Su Yin pulled out another stinky weed.

Seeing this, the others all headed in her direction. After searching around, they couldn't find the third plant.

Everyone returned empty-handed.

Su Yin happily handed one of the plants to Yang Lizheng, "Third Grandfather, this is for you."

"Keep it for yourself."

"I have."

Su Yin took another one back and gave it to Su's mother. Su's mother and Su Baozhu walked together, and the mosquito repellent effect was the same.

After delivering the gift, Su Yin ran to the front of the team again.

Butcher Yang saw her return and said with a smile: "You found two plants, which is already a lot. You are still going to look for more. There are not so many of those things."

"It's okay. I'll just look for it. If there's one, I'll pick one. If not, forget it."

After walking for a quarter of an hour, Su Yin saw stinkweed in a crack in a stone. He pulled it out again before anyone could react. His sharp eyes saw the stinkweed floating in the wind behind the stone.

Su Yin went around the stone and saw a small patch of stinkweed, with about a dozen plants.

Su Yin's eyes lit up and she quickly pulled out seven stinky weeds.

Since the roots start to stink when they are out of the soil and cannot be preserved for a long time, I wonder if digging up the roots with the soil together will preserve the odor. Then throw away the soil when you need it.

With an idea in mind, Su Yin dug up the stinking weeds with the roots and soil. However, things did not develop in the direction she expected, and the stinking weeds still began to stink.

What a pity!

Su Yin dug up eight stinkweeds, which were enough for the family. There was no need to pull them all out; any more would be useless.

"There is stinky weed here." Su Yin shouted, and many people immediately rushed over there.

"Oh, there really is one."

Su Yin ignored the others and returned to the team with eight stinking weeds.

Butcher Yang was greatly shocked. "Su girl, you have a very sharp eye."

Yang Dashu said, "This is strange. No matter how hard others try, they can't find it. But it becomes particularly easy here with Su Yatou. Could it be that Choucao likes you a little?"
