The people from Taohua Village who escaped here have left the county town overnight.
Because we have been walking on the mountain road, we are now far away from the official road.
The village chief led everyone and walked until nine o'clock in the morning before stopping to sleep and rest.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, we have to get up, eat and get ready to hit the road.
I only sleep six hours a day and work intensively every day.
But Su Nanxing saw that the villagers were in good condition.
Only those children need to be held from time to time and will complain of being tired.
Even the elderly have persisted.
Su Nanxing had been sitting in the carriage and felt almost unable to bear it.
Fortunately, his body returned to that of a 16-year-old, otherwise, Su Nanxing, a 26-year-old, would not be able to endure sitting in the office all year round.
The other members of the Su family, even the frail-looking Aunt Qiuju, are much stronger than Su Nanxing.
Su Dashan said that Su Nanxing had delicate skin and tender flesh, and it was obvious that she had never been to the fields or done any work.
Su Nanxing had to admit that Uncle Dashan was absolutely right.
Although he was an orphan, he only did housework like washing dishes in the orphanage.
After going to school, because of his good grades, Su Nanxing received a scholarship every semester, so he didn't have to work part-time to pay for his studies.
After the high school entrance exam, he went to a private high school and received a 100,000 yuan admission scholarship.
This was a huge sum of money, so even though he could no longer live in the orphanage at the age of sixteen, he did not suffer any hardship.
He usually lives in school, but because of his special situation, he can also live in school during winter and summer vacations.
Moreover, private high schools usually offer quite a few scholarships.
So, Su Nanxing really didn't suffer any physical hardship.
That is, after graduating from college, you go to work and stay up late to work overtime day and night in order to earn money to buy a house.
That period was the most difficult.
As for why he didn't continue his postgraduate studies, Su Nanxing also felt a little stupid.
It would be much better to continue studying for a master's or doctoral degree, and you can earn more after graduation.
But I was blinded by lust and started working there straight away.
After he returns, he will definitely resign immediately, travel around the country first, and then take the postgraduate entrance examination.
When they reached the city, the head of Taohua Village called the villagers together. They discussed who would go out to gather information and buy food. The further they got, the harder it would be to buy food.
Grandpa Su is familiar with the city, so he must go. Then he will select some who are fast and smart.
Finally, Grandpa Su set off with about ten young people.
Su Nanxing did not go with them this time, after all, she was an outsider.
I don't know much about many things here, and it would be troublesome if I fell behind.
At the camp, people gathered in groups of three or four to eat and rest.
The forests here are also barren, and it is close to the city, so we can't burn a fire.
Fortunately, there is enough dry food. If there is not enough, we can only eat some vegetables temporarily or exchange them with others.
Su Nanxing has been eating all kinds of cakes and pickles these days.
Occasionally, I have some dried meat as a snack.
I haven’t had hot food for a long time, I really miss it!
When can we open fire?
Su Nanxing came to Su Mu and said, "Brother, those locusts won't eat up all the forests along the way, will they?"
Su Mu put down the water bag and said, "No, brother, the locust outbreak happened in our city, so the disaster is so serious.
But other prefectures will prepare in advance once they are on guard.
Burning, burying, or frying will slowly reduce the locust population."
Su Nanxing nodded: "That's good, otherwise I don't know when I can start cooking."
Su Mu looked at the surrounding situation and said, "After leaving the city, walk into the mountains and you can probably open fire.
Besides, the dry food of the villagers won’t last long.”
Su Nanxing was very happy to hear this, as she could finally eat hot food!
After the chat, I saw that Su Mu was not ready to rest yet, and it seemed that he was worried about Grandpa Su.
Su Nanxing comforted the other person with a few words and then quickly took him to rest.
Grandpa Su has traveled all over the country and is definitely more reliable than us. It’s better for him to take a rest and get enough rest.
Grandma Su and Aunt Qiuju had already fallen asleep.
Xiao Zhuzi was also in the carriage, sleeping soundly.
After dark, Grandpa Su finally came back.
Everyone quickly gathered around and asked about the situation in the city.
Su Mu took the dry food and Su Nanxing took the water bag, breaking through the crowd. "Let my grandfather eat first!" Su Nanxing said.
The village chief also came over at this time and asked everyone to stop arguing and let those who had left have some food.
Grandpa Su sat directly on the stone and started eating.
The others also took the dry food given by their families and devoured it.
Everyone returned empty-handed, so they definitely didn't buy any food.
Grandpa Su ate a cake and began to slowly tell about his trip to the provincial capital.
Su Nanxing carried the stones and sat next to Grandpa Su, watching the scene in the first row.
Grandpa Su and his group went to the nearest village before going to the provincial capital.
After observing the area around the village for a while, I discovered that the conscription for this village should have ended as well.
Grandpa Su asked the others to wait, and he took a branch, smeared his face with black paint, disguised himself as an old man, and entered the village.
There are very few people in the village, and most of them are queuing up by the well to draw water.
When Grandpa Su arrived, an old man came to greet him with a cane.
"What are you doing?" The old man was very alert.
Grandpa Su coughed and said, "I'm going to the capital to see a doctor, and I want to ask which clinic you usually go to.
Once you enter the city, you'll see all the nobles there, and you're afraid of offending anyone."
"The government has been recruiting soldiers recently, and people are being arrested everywhere in the city. Some doctors have been taken away to accompany the army.
