Chapter 18 Heavy Rain



Lin Jinyue also instructed: "We will all wash up in a while, we are all smelling of cooking fumes, and we don't have any clean clothes to change into."

The family ate and drank their fill in the space, and then took a hot bath.

Although the farm is not as modern as the modern one, it is much more comfortable than the outside world.

It was inconvenient to take things from outside, so the villagers were very careful when buying firewood and did not dare to buy too much.

The farm is different.

They come in for two and a half hours every night, wait for the system to cool down, and then come in at four or five in the morning to chop wood, boil water, and do whatever they want. The firewood is placed aside so it doesn't take up any space.

The flow rate inside is five times that of outside. After working for an hour, they can still catch up on their sleep and have breakfast inside, thus sleeping and working at the same time without being discovered.

In the morning, the family woke up feeling refreshed. They ate meat patties in the early hours of the previous morning, although there was only a little minced meat in each patty.

Lin Jinyue took a nap and was still savoring the aroma of the meat pie.

The aroma of rice wafted in the air from outside, and the wives of each family went outside to cook breakfast.

Just at this moment, there was a sound of quarrel.

"Mr. Lin, do you have any shame?"

"Come on, where do we store our food? Your family worked so hard to get this cart back, so you don't feel sorry for the horse, do you?"

"Why don't we just squeeze in with other families? My brother had a high fever before, and he survived with great difficulty. What's wrong with him taking a ride on a cart? We are all from the same hometown, we can't be so cold-blooded."

"Want to squeeze in with the other families? Don't even think about it. Ten people are not enough to fit in a cart. How cruel are you?"

There was an argument going on outside, and Lin Jinyue lifted the curtain to take a look.

She asked in surprise, "Didn't we drive his family away? Why is he still trying to get on our cart? What if Marco is exhausted?"

The man who had argued with Mr. Lin reacted immediately.

Yes, they all drove Lin Youliang’s family away!

It's also because others are making noises, saying that your luggage has an extra pound of food in it, but my luggage is not big enough. If you put too much stuff in, the horse will be tired.

I was so angry this morning that I didn't react for a while. They didn't even consider Lin Youliang's family.

Lin Jinyue was eating melon seeds and watching the fun.

You say these people are strange. Originally, they didn't have carts and horses, and they carried their luggage and walked very fast. But now that they have them, they start quarreling.

Lin Jinyue ignored them and sneaked into the tent to eat a piece of fried dough twist for breakfast.

Then she studied the map with Lin Shucheng.

This is the most important thing now.

This map was the one on the people transporting the food and fodder. It was a simple map that was very crudely drawn.

Ancient maps are different from modern maps. Modern maps have a standard scale, artificial satellites, and can show mountains, rivers, and more.

This ancient map was drawn by a private person and is quite sloppy, but you can see Yangzhou and Fuzhou in the south, and there is a sea next to Fuzhou.

However, looking at this map, Lin Jinyue had an idea in her mind. It seemed that the map was similar to that in her previous life. It was probably a different time and space in the mobile world, and as long as Lingnan was by the sea, everything would be fine.

No matter how the Great Xia Dynasty fights, they will immediately build ships as soon as they arrive in Lingnan. If the war spreads to Lingnan, they will immediately run to the small islands outside when the attack comes.

A family of four was discussing their escape route inside while there was a huge quarrel outside.

As the village chief, Lin Youcai was also annoyed: "I've told you so many times, we are fleeing famine, we can't fight among ourselves!"

"What's the fuss about? Can't we just take turns driving the horses? And you, Boss Lin, get out of here right now. How can you be so arrogant? You still want to take advantage of us after we've driven you away. Do you believe that I'll tie you to a tree and let you die on your own?"

Lin Youcai was completely furious this time.

Lin Jinyue didn't even bother discussing the route and simply stuck her head out to watch the fun. If an old man like Lin Youcai could get angry, then her grandfather's family must have been much more troublesome.

In the end, Lin Youliang's family was really out of options.

Lin Youliang knelt on the ground, wiping his tears. "Brother, I don't want to care about it. If a grown man cares about everything, won't it make people laugh? But the child's mother passed away early, and my family is poor. I can't find a second wife. I have to be both a father and a mother...Brother, I feel so miserable."

In short, Lin Youliang played the victim and made all kinds of assurances that he would never make trouble and would never talk too much. Only then did Lin Youcai soften his heart and agree to let them go.

They didn't go together, but followed behind. Anyway, they went hunting and guarding the mountain food, following the third brother's family, and anything they got had nothing to do with Lin Youliang.

If they are willing to carry people on the cart, it means they are kind-hearted. If they are not willing, Lin Youliang can't say anything.

Lin Jinyue was listening in the house. She had originally planned to threaten Lin Youcai if he didn't deal with it promptly. Perhaps it was because every time she had a conflict with Lin Youliang's family in the past few days, she said she wanted to break up and leave. The village chief was afraid and didn't dare to let Lin Youliang's family cause trouble.

Lin Jinyue thought this result was good and it was time to set off.

She glanced at the weather forecast, a new feature unlocked by the system.

This is a terrible thing, it's going to rain heavily in an hour.

Seeing that Lin Youliang was still trying to bargain, Lin Jinyue shouted at Lin Fugui: "Uncle Fugui, don't worry about them. It's going to rain soon. Let's pack up and leave quickly."

When everyone heard this, who cared about the quarrel?

They have suffered a lot during their more than a month of fleeing famine, and what they fear most is rain.

After the rain, I was soaked in mud everywhere, but I hadn't changed into clean clothes yet. I looked like I was moldy.

Lin Xueqing quickly folded up the tent and put it on the carriage.

He pulled the horse and ran into the mountains and forests.

Before we found the cave, raindrops started falling.

The villagers quickly wrapped the grain layer by layer, preferring to get wet in the rain rather than let the grain get spoiled.

Lin Jinyue and her family didn't care about anything else and just rushed forward. In fact, they couldn't find a cave, so they just found a place and quickly found four trees to use as stakes before the rain got heavy.

Lin Xueqing and Lin Shucheng cut some vines and tied them to the tree trunk, tying them very firmly.

Lin Jinyue was not idle either. She and Jiang Yun went around picking up large oak leaves, weaving them into straw ropes and placing them on vines to keep out the rain.

The torn oil-paper umbrella that Lin Jinyue had bought earlier was also put to use. After patching it up with leaves, the two of them shared one and were able to barely block the rain leaking through the shed.

The rain is not particularly heavy, but it is expected to last for a long time.

The others followed suit, finding trees and vines and quickly building a makeshift shed.

In a primeval forest like this, rain is troublesome. Not only will you get muddy everywhere you step on, but it is also inconvenient for others to change their clothes. If they wear wet clothes, they will definitely get sick.

Lin Jinyue Farm's traditional mall can buy ginger, and it's not particularly expensive, so she suggested: "Mom, let's make some ginger soup for them, so that the disease won't delay their travel."

Jiang Yun nodded, and Lin Jinyue nodded: "That's right, Yueyue, you go to sleep for a while, and we will go to the space to dig a pond later."

Lin Jinyue nodded, and was also very tired, so she fell asleep immediately.
