After this farce, everyone did not care about anything and began to pack up their belongings and prepare to set off.
Mu Jin knew that Liu Ergou's departure did not mean the end of this matter.
Because the way Liu Ergou looked at him just now was still full of malice, it seemed that the road ahead would be even more difficult.
It’s time to show some strength to deter those with ulterior motives.
I'm six months pregnant and I have supernatural powers. As long as the magnitude is not too big, I don't need to be overly cautious.
Later in the journey, Zhang felt that there was something different about this goddaughter.
The weather was getting drier and drier. Everyone's food supply was almost gone. There was no more water in the kettle. The light in their eyes was fading away bit by bit.
Zhang's little granddaughter's sobbing became weaker and weaker.
Mu Jin saw that this was not going to work. The road to the capital was still a long way off. With the initial goodwill, she couldn't let everyone wait like this.
Mu Jin led Mu Bai to the deep mountains. The outskirts of the mountains had been swept countless times, and there was no rainfall. There was very little food to eat, and the bark of the trees had been stripped clean.
If you want to survive, you can only go to the mountains
It is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish. People's hearts are unpredictable. Letting them get their own food will help them maintain the most basic conscience of humanity.
As expected, there are many trees in the deep mountains, so they are not too exposed to the sun. There are edible wild fruits and mushrooms that are enough for those people to eat for a while.
After marking the path, he brought Mubai back to the team and informed the village chief. The chief asked each family to send one person up the mountain. Mujin wanted to follow him, but was stopped by Zhang.
"You little girl, you and Mu Bai ran off into the mountains just now without paying attention. Luckily nothing happened. Now you just stay here and wait for them to come back. If Mu Bai doesn't pick enough, I, an old woman, can't afford to give up the food for you two."
Zhang disagreed with Mu Jin running into the mountains with her pregnant mother.
Mu Jin also knew that Zhang had good intentions.
"Godmother, isn't it okay? I know my body well, and the baby is well behaved in my belly. Didn't you also tell me that when you were pregnant with my eldest brother, you were still working in the fields with a big belly? I'm just going up the mountain to exercise."
The "big brother" mentioned by Mu Jin is naturally Zhang's only son. This was also said during a casual chat.
"You girl"
Zhang smiled and tapped Mujin's forehead.
Unable to persuade Mu Jin, Zhang let Mu Jin go with her. It was obvious that this child had his own ideas.
Although she calls me mother, it is only because of our past relationship. I cannot really take up the title of mother and interfere too much, lest I create a rift with this girl.
Mu Bai led the team along the way, observing the signs and paying attention to whether there were any dangers around. He did not walk very fast, and Mu Jin soon caught up with him.
With Mu Jin's guidance, they soon arrived at the wild fruit and mushroom patch. Everyone was delighted. At the village chief's command, everyone joined the picking team.
Hibiscus can't squat down, nor can it just stand by and watch. Remind everyone not to forget to observe the surrounding dangers while picking. Just walk away to see if there is anything else that can be eaten.
Mu Bai was worried, so he picked hibiscus while looking at it. The village chief looked at Mu Bai, waved his hand and let the child follow him, and promised that he would have a share when he came back. Mu Bai followed the hibiscus with confidence.
Mu Jin looked at Mu Bai who was catching up with him and said nothing more. They had food and didn't care about that. It would be better to leave some for the villagers.
