Chapter 34: Route



Second Aunt Shen Daya continued with an unhappy look on her face: "Aunt Wu just told me that they found food in the city last night and filled a whole truck."

"The food was originally found in the city, and we came here together. Why should they keep all the food they found?"

"Besides, they have a cart full of food, so they don't need it. They should give the food to us."

"They had food but didn't share any with us. They even had the nerve to say that Shen Rong was kind to our family. Bah, what black-hearted people they are. The whole family is not good people."

As they were talking, Shen Daya's third aunt also joined in, and her face was also full of pain when she heard this.

She said, "It's because I'm honest that Dad insisted on going with Second Uncle and the others. We even left him two kilograms of food. If we had known they had found so much food, we shouldn't have given them a single grain of rice."

The more they spoke, the more indignant they became, as if Shen Yu'an and the others had done something unforgivable.

In the end, even Shen Xingwang's three sons were persuaded.

He felt that his father had to follow Shen Yuan's family because he must have known that their family had found a lot of food.

Why didn’t he tell his own sons about such a good thing?

Several people felt resentful and felt more and more innocent.

Several people thought bitterly: When they want to return to the team again, they must ask for more food from them.

In addition to them, many other people saw the Shen family following behind the team.

Everyone had different thoughts. Some wanted to ask for food from the Shen family, some were gloating and watching the joke, and some were smugly waiting for the Shen family to beg for mercy.

Even if there are some people who think that the Shen family is not wrong, they dare not speak up to say anything for them now. If they are kicked out of the team, they will have no place to cry.

After resting for a while, Shen Lizheng stood up, glanced back in the direction of the Shen family, and snorted coldly.

Just a little girl dared to humiliate him again and again, and he just waited for them to come crying and beg for mercy.

It will be impossible to come back so easily by then.

Shen Yu'an and others had no idea what they were thinking.

Because they were discussing the next route.

Their original plan was to go east with everyone from Shenjia Village, and then detour to the southeast in front of the third prince's fiefdom.

Now that something like this has happened, they are thinking about whether they can change the route and not go with them.

Fortunately, they had made preparations in advance. Shen Rong had already made a simplified version of the Wei Dynasty topographic map in the town school.

Although there are many places that are not very detailed, it is enough for them.

Shen Rong spread out the topographic map on the ground, and Shen Yuan knelt on the ground, looking at the routes on the topographic map, trying to choose a more suitable route.

After finishing their meal, others also walked over to join in the fun.

"We are not far from the county town now. If we continue walking eastward for about a hundred kilometers, we will reach the border of Mizhou City. After passing Mizhou City, we will head southeast."

"We have already reached Mizhou City, why don't we just stay there? After all, we are the prince's subjects, and the city should be able to take us in." asked old man Shen Xingwang.

Shen Yu'an had never considered settling down in the vicinity of Mizhou City from the beginning for two reasons.

One is that the counties around Mizhou have suffered from locust plagues and earthquakes. Although she remembers that Mizhou is safe and secure, the people affected by the disasters in the surrounding areas will definitely flock there.

If the government fails to handle the situation properly when there are too many people, it will easily lead to conflicts. Moreover, even if the government is willing to accept so many people, there are certainly not enough places to accommodate them.

The second and most important point is that Mizhou is adjacent to the fourth prince’s fiefdom.

The Fourth Prince is the male protagonist in the book, and he must have great ambitions. The Emperor is seriously ill now. If he dies one day, he will definitely be the first to attack the Third Prince who has no power from his mother's family.

If we go to Mizhou City, wouldn't that be like a sheep falling into a wolf's mouth?

When the war breaks out, you won’t be able to escape.

However, Shen Yu'an still explained: "Grandpa, there are disasters in many places in Mizhou now, and everyone is rushing to Mizhou City, but Mizhou City can only accommodate a limited number of people."

"So we should make plans early and not compete with others for that possibility. We should go to the south of Wei. There are beautiful mountains and rivers over there, and the generals of the territory will guard the border well. There is no better place than there."

Others had no objection to what Shen Yu'an said, but old man Shen Xingwang looked hesitant.

From what the headman said a few days ago, they wanted to go to the fourth prince's fiefdom or the surrounding areas of the imperial city. If he went to the south, he would never see those brats again.

Just as he was angry when he first set out, he was as hesitant now.

Even though his kids aren't very promising, they are still his biological children after all, and he would be reluctant to let them go.

Thinking about what happened in the morning, the old man felt very sad.

Those daughters-in-law all wanted to leave him alone. And the second daughter-in-law, don't think he doesn't know, the second daughter-in-law took the opportunity to fish in troubled waters and wanted to push him down.

The last two kilograms of grain left were old grain from last year that had already gone a little moldy.

He sighed and said, "Grandpa, think about it carefully."

Shen Yu'an nodded in agreement, knowing that this matter could not be forced.

After everything was discussed, the group looked up and found that the team in front of them had left at some point.

They also started packing up and getting ready to leave, otherwise it would be dark if they waited any longer.

I don’t know if they were walking too fast or the group of people in front of them were walking too slowly.

In the evening, they met again.

But this time Shen Yu'an asked them to drive the ox cart closer. There happened to be a few rocks there, so they rested behind them.

Thinking of overtaking them and getting ahead of them early the next morning.

They parked the ox cart closer, and the people from Shenjia Village spotted them at once.

However, no one dared to come over here. Even Wu Cuihua, who wanted to come over and say a few words to Song, was stopped by her daughter-in-law.

From a distance, I saw them arguing about something, but they finally sat down.

Aunt Wu glanced over here and walked over to sit next to Shen Lizheng's wife.

"I told you that this guy is not good at not giving in, but he still followed me."

Shen Lizheng's wife took over his words and laughed, "That's right, a young man doesn't know the rules, and the whole family is implicated."

Both of them disliked the Shen family, and they sang in unison, without lowering their voices at all, and even deliberately raised their voices to humiliate Shen Yu'an.

Old Mrs. Shen was listening at the back and couldn't even continue cooking. She immediately wanted to pick up the spatula and hit the two old women.

These two bastards actually dared to scold her precious granddaughter.
