Chapter 447 Is there anything more desperate than this?



Chapter 447 Is there anything more desperate than this?

"cannot."

Zhou Yunhai asked directly, and Zhou Yunzhi refused directly.

Zhou Yunhai, perhaps because he had too high expectations before coming here, frowned upon hearing Zhou Yunzhi's refusal and said, "Haizhou is about to fall into chaos. If I want to return to Songshan Island safely with Ali and the child, I don't have enough people around me."

If there were enough people, he wouldn't have asked Zhou Yunzhi this.

Zhou Yunhai must bring Ali and the child back safely, otherwise he will not be able to explain himself when he returns to Songshan Island.

Zhou Yunzhi looked at Zhou Yunhai, who felt he was right, and said, "That's because you weren't prepared enough. It has nothing to do with us."

"Besides, I'm lending you my life. Have you ever thought about the elderly, children, women, and the disabled at home?"

In the past, Zhou Yunhai was just a little bit temperamental and occasionally a little selfish.

But during the time he disappeared, he seemed like a completely different person.

Zhou Yunhai lowered his eyes slightly, "There are more than a hundred elite soldiers in Dongwang Village, and the people on Zhanchuan's side..."

"Oh!"

Zhou Yunzhi looked at him.

His time in Dongwang Village was not in vain, as he had learned a little about the Zhou family.

But when he thought about how Zhou Yunhai had coveted the Zhou family's current power from the beginning, Zhou Yunzhi couldn't help but sneer and said, "Zhou Yunhai."

"We cannot work together if we do not share the same ideals."

Zhou Yunzhi originally wanted to explain things to Zhou Yunhai. After all, they were brothers, and it would be best to avoid some misunderstandings if possible.

For example, not all the elite in the village will leave with them. Dongwang Village is also one of the Zhou family’s bases, so some people will definitely be left here.

The remaining elite soldiers will stay with Zhou Yunzhi and his group when they move to Yuncheng, but these people are really not enough to protect their entire family.

As for the people on Zhanchuan's side...

At that time, some people will be transferred from there to escort them to Yuncheng, but only a part of them.

Zhou Yunzhi and Zhou Yunshu have tried their best to accumulate power since moving to Dongchuan, but power cannot be achieved overnight, and it is not as easy as Zhou Yunhai thought.

Zhou Yunzhi would not let the power he and his sister had worked so hard to accumulate be used to benefit others.

In particular, ever since Zhou Yunhai chose to obey their grandmother, they were no longer the same kind of people.

"But we are a family!"

Zhou Yunhai didn't understand why everyone in his family looked different to him after he came back.

"So what?"

Zhou Yunzhi looked at Zhou Yunhai's expressionless face and said, "Not everyone in the family makes the same choices."

"Just like you chose your grandmother, we chose the Zhou family."

After hearing what Zhou Yunzhi said, Zhou Yunhai couldn't help but shouted, "But grandma is also a member of the Zhou family! Grandma is our elder, the eldest princess. Is it wrong for me to listen to her?"

Compared to Zhou Yunhai's excitement, Zhou Yunzhi was much calmer.

“Nothing wrong, just different choices.”

"Choice, choice, another choice!" Zhou Yunhai stood up and looked at his disabled elder brother, pointing at his crippled leg and said, "Look at the choices you made. Look at what you look like now. Are you still the glorious eldest son of the Zhou family?"

"Bang!"

As Zhou Yunhai finished speaking, a bowl of soup hit him in the face.

The steaming soup spilled onto his face, and the broken porcelain pieces scratched his cheek.

Zhou Yunhai turned his head angrily, and then saw Li Jialan, whose eyes were red and she was about to fall; and Wu Yue, who was glaring at him and shaking with anger.

Looking at Wu Yue's hand that had not been put away yet, it was obvious that the bowl of soup that had just hit Zhou Yunhai's face was thrown by Wu Yue.

"Mom, what are you doing!"

Wu Yue clenched her trembling hands tightly, stared at Zhou Yunhai and asked, "Why you?"

Zhou Yunhai wiped the soup off his face, looking at Wu Yue with anger in his heart because of what she said. Why him?

"Why did you come back alive? Why not Kun'er? Why wasn't you the one who died on the battlefield? Why was it Kun'er!!"

When Wu Yue collapsed and shouted these words to her eldest son, Zhou Yunhai felt as if he was struck by lightning.

He just stood there looking at his mother in disbelief, unable to believe that these words would come from the mouth of his biological mother who had always loved him.

He was so shocked that he even let the still hot soup slowly flow down his face.

Are there any words more despairing than a mother telling her son that she hopes he dies?

Zhou Yunhai didn't say a word to his mother this time. Every action she took during this period was a rejection and denial of him.

So when Zhou Yunhai finished listening to what Wu Yue said, he looked at Wu Yue with anger and sadness in his eyes, then without saying anything, he walked past Li Jialan and Wu Yue at the door and left.

Zhou Yunhai left, and Zhou Yunzhi sat in a wheelchair and slowly exhaled.

After Wu Yue finished speaking, all the strength in her body seemed to be drained away. She fell to the ground and burst into tears, "Kun'er, my Kun'er."

"My child, why, why!"

It wasn't like this before, why has it become like this now?

Li Jialan put down the tray in her hand, squatted down with red eyes, and took Wu Yue into her arms.

Sometimes the best comfort may be companionship.

The day after Zhou Yunhai left, Zhou Yunzhi felt that the road conditions were not bad, so before noon he took the sixty elite men from the village and the one hundred people brought by Zhan Chuan and rushed to Yuncheng.

Not only the Zhou family members were traveling with them, but also students selected from the farms under the Zhou family and the families of Zhou Yunshu's confidants.

Wu Ciyi was bound to follow, and even Cen Miaofu, who lived not far away, brought her brother and hurried to catch up with Zhou Yunzhi and others.

After Zhou Yunshu of Yuncheng received the news that Zhou Yunzhi and others had set off, she asked Jing Gao to take 200 elite soldiers to meet them.

For safety reasons, food and people were transported separately this time to reduce risks.

After Zhou Yunzhi and others arrive safely in Yuncheng, send someone to bring the food to Yuncheng.

In addition, Zhou Yunshu found three abandoned mansions and a private warehouse while patrolling Yuncheng.

Zhou Yunshu memorized the locations and at night, when no one was around, she stuffed four-fifths of the food she had accumulated in her space into the basements of the three mansions and the private warehouse.

After finishing, he asked his men to search and then put the grain into the granary in a natural way.

Zhou Yunshu had accumulated quite a bit of food before, and the food she took out was almost enough for the people in Yuncheng to survive for a year.

If it were the old Yuncheng, it would probably be gone in two or three months, because there are still few people in Yuncheng now.

A year's food still did not bring Zhou Yunshu a sense of security. She wrote to Du Mazi, Hu Zi and Feng Xujie, asking them to help her buy food and send it to Yuncheng.

Judging from the time, they should have transported grain to Haizhou by now.
