Lai Fu stepped forward and said, "Lord, we have to pass through at least five or six counties to get to Mobei, and it will take five days to get to the nearest county."
Five days is not enough, everyone must find a place to hide before the locusts come.
The shabby little house they were living in was clearly no protection against the locusts.
Chu Chenyin was in deep thought.
At this time, Fu Yanting said: "Dad, Mom, I remember that we will pass through three post stations if we go east. Why don't we take another road and hurry up. If we encounter locusts on the way, we can hide at the post station."
Lord Fu calculated the time and nodded, "Alright, I'll listen to you. We'll set off right away."
After hearing this, the whole Fu family responded in unison: "Yes, Dad! (Mr. Hou!)"
Fortunately, everyone was just staying in Anzhou this time, and many of their luggage were still in the carriage. After simply packing up, everyone got on the carriage.
Chu Chenyin leaned back in the carriage, feeling a little sleepy.
Fu Qianhong, who was sitting in the carriage with her, accidentally saw the red marks on her neck and quickly asked, "Sister-in-law, where did you go with your brother last night? Why is your neck full of mosquito bites?"
Chu Chenyin couldn't help but feel embarrassed when he heard this. He covered his mouth with his hands and said with a smile, "I was hunting in the mountains and was trapped by a wolf on the hillside. I fed mosquitoes all night."
Fu Kanghong showed a distressed expression and took out the ointment he carried with him from his arms, "Come, sister-in-law, rub it on."
"Thank you, third sister." Chu Chenyin took it in her hand and pretended to wipe it.
Fu Yanting picked up the kettle and drank water guiltily.
Fu Kanghong frowned as he looked at the red mark. The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. "The mosquitoes in Anzhou are really powerful. If I see them, I will definitely slap them to death!"
After saying this, he made a clapping gesture.
Fu Yanting heard a mouthful of water swallowed into his trachea and started coughing violently.
Chu Chenyin quickly reached out and patted him on the back, "Are you okay?"
Fu Kanghong looked at Fu Yanting and asked with concern: "Brother, how come you get scolded for drinking water?"
Fu Yanting breathed a sigh of relief, squeezed the kettle and put it aside, "I... I'm fine~"
Chu Chenyin turned around, took out the handkerchief and handed it to him.
Fu Yanting took it in his hand and wiped the water off his body.
Fu Qianghong narrowed his eyes and smiled knowingly, "Big brother and sister-in-law seem to be much closer than before~"
