Seeing that Fan He could go, the other children immediately looked on with envy.
Yan Qiuxing looked at Shui Qing with longing eyes as Wan Xia returned.
Without even thinking, Shui Qing said, "The three of you are no good!"
She was worried!
Then, feeling a little reluctant, she comforted them, saying, "Once the world is more stable, I'll take you all with me. We'll travel and enjoy the scenery! We can stay in a city for a few days, eat local specialties, and admire famous local sights. It'll be much more fun than this journey."
Yan Qiuxing was so happy to see Wanxia that she almost jumped for joy.
Ding Jiajia quickly said, "Sister Shuiqing, I want to come with you all! Can you take me with you? Oh, and my mom too!"
Shui Qing agreed with exceptional ease: "That's for sure! My mother will go too. We'll set off in February. It's colder to the north than where we are here. By March, the climate in Jiangnan will be pleasant, neither too hot nor too cold, perfect for a trip."
I also know, uh, I read in a book that there's a very famous lake in Yuhang, and it's said to be even more beautiful when it rains. You'll definitely love the misty, rainy Jiangnan region.
Ding Jiajia's eyes sparkled; she couldn't wait to go.
She unconsciously looked at Hu Wenhua, who replied without thinking, "Let me go and scout ahead first, and then I'll lead the way for you."
Ding Jiajia blushed.
Shui Qing burst out laughing.
It seems the rest of them are in that group.
The younger brother's behavior was too obvious.
Ding Heli retorted, "Why should you lead the way? Aren't I here? I'll take care of it!"
Qin Yilin nudged Ding Heli and said reproachfully, "It doesn't matter who leads, right? The medicinal herbs will be ready in February anyway, so let's go together then."
Hu's mother was worried before, but after hearing what they said, she was very tempted.
In all her years, the farthest she's ever been is the prefectural city. Jiangnan, is it really possible for her to ever go there and see it?
Never mind, the most important thing is to live well. As long as you're alive, there's hope.
After a lively dinner, the group washed up and went back to their rooms.
In the days that followed, the men worked in the fields and on the hills, while the women prepared dry rations at home.
If you're going to be away for more than a month, you should prepare at least two months' worth of dry food. It's okay to have more, but I'm worried about not having enough.
There must be food for sale outside, but most of them are from poor families, so who would be willing to buy food outside?
Besides, we had a bumper potato harvest at home, and we also made a lot of kudzu root powder last year, which is perfect for taking on the road. Since we have it at home, there's no need to buy it from outside.
Shuiqing led Da Ni, Er Ni, and the other three to quickly smoke the pork that Ling Ce had given them, so they could take it with them on the road to eat and get some nutrition.
With a large number of people, a long distance, and a lot of things to carry, every household was busy.
