Chapter 76



After Su's father made the decision, the next step was to buy a yard.

They were unfamiliar with the city, so they had to ask Su Qingrong's parents-in-law for help in buying a house.

Coincidentally, there were three families nearby who wanted to sell their houses.

There are two places with suitable geographical locations.

One place is close to Su Qingrong's mother-in-law's house, but the house is too small; the other place is a little far away and requires more than ten minutes to walk.

Of course, the one that is farther away has a house of the right size.

After listening to the introduction, Lu Changge decided to buy the one at the back.

I went to handle the formalities in the morning and got the title deed in the afternoon.

After the house was bought, the others helped to pack it up, and Lu Changge bought all kinds of things.

Doctor Xu has family in Beijing, so he will naturally continue his journey after resting.

Moreover, the new emperor has restored his son to his position.

After returning to Beijing, Doctor Xu might be able to get a government job with a little effort.

On the fourth day of their tour of the city, after breakfast, Lu Changge's family and Doctor Xu set off again.

When they left Daxing Mountain on a bamboo raft, Li Tugen and Li Xiaomin's families followed Feng Xunyuan and left.

Feng Xunyuan and Jinbao, one is the emperor's younger brother, and the other is the emperor's eldest son.

Since they were nowhere to be found, the emperor would naturally send everyone to look for them.

Therefore, Li Tugen and Li Xiaomin's families now live in Yuancheng, which is close to the imperial city.

In this way, Lu Changge's family and Dr. Xu had different destinations but the same direction.

The location of the patrol city is far away, and it takes about a month to get to the imperial city from here.

The same applies to going to Yuancheng.

Of course, this time the journey was not like the previous ones, and there was nothing to eat or drink along the way.

Every ten days or so they passed through a city and could stop to rest or replenish supplies.

When I left the city patrol, it was already late October, and in three or four days it would be November.

November is already the end of autumn, and the leaves of some trees along the road are beginning to turn yellow.

When the wind blew, accompanied by the rustling sound of leaves, the base of the tree was covered with a thick layer of leaf carpet.

According to the planned itinerary, they arrived in Yuancheng at the end of November.

After leaving the city patrol, we headed towards the imperial city.

On the fourth day of the journey, people fleeing with large and small bags began to appear on the road.

Su Qingyun was sitting in the carriage. When she heard the noise outside, she opened the window curtain and looked out.

I saw people fleeing on foot outside.

Su Qingyun then remembered that it had only been five months since the rain and floods that occurred in June.

The heavy rains lasted for almost two months.

All the houses and fields were washed away and submerged by the floods, leaving everyone homeless and forced to flee.

Fortunately, the Imperial City, as well as Yuancheng and Mingcheng near the Imperial City were not affected by the rain.

These three places became cities of refuge for refugees.

Fortunately, the subsequent plagues and wars were nipped in the bud before they occurred.

Otherwise, these people’s lives will be even more difficult.

When he met these people, Lu Changge just glanced at them.

The carriage then drove right past the refugees without any intention of stopping.

The carriage that Doctor Xu rode in was rented, and the driver was an honest man.

However, Lu Changge still let Dahei get on Doctor Xu's carriage and sit next to the coachman.

The coachman following behind saw this, but did not dare to stop. He quickly whipped his horse whip again and sped up.

Although the refugees looked ragged and pitiful, the coach drivers had seen them in a state of madness.

If you dare to stop, not only will your clothes be stripped off, but you might even kill your horse for meat.

Hearing the sound of the carriage, the refugees along the way looked back.

He was about to walk to the middle to force the carriage to stop, but he saw that the carriage was moving at an alarming speed.

Moreover, the driver looked so ferocious that no one dared to have any evil thoughts.

A few others were afraid of being hit by the carriage, so they quickly moved to the side.

As the flying dust slowly dispersed, the sound of the carriage gradually faded away.

The refugees' eyes, which used to glow green, dimmed and they returned to their previous numbness.

Perhaps it was because of something the new emperor of Fenglai Kingdom did, there were not many refugees on the road.

At least it wasn't as dark and oppressive as Lu Changge had imagined, like a city surrounded by zombies.

Lu Changge didn't feel anything for the refugees on the road. After all, he had experienced disasters that could lead to the extinction of mankind.

This rain disaster was just a minor incident to him.

Of course, Lu Changge is a man of stone, but his wife is not.

Seeing those refugees, Su Qingyun thought a lot.

What he thought about most was that if his husband had not had those adventures, then his family's experience might have been the same as those people.

However, seeing those refugees also meant that the plan of stopping to rest in every city would fail.

On the eighth day of leaving the city, we arrived at the next city.

But when we saw the refugees coming from that direction from a distance, we knew we couldn't go to that city.

"Mr. Lu, do you still want to go into the city?" the driver of the carriage behind asked loudly.

"No, let's keep going." Lu Changge replied, turning the carriage around and continuing to move forward.

The driver heard this, whipped his whip and hurried after them.

Su Qingyun, who was sitting in the carriage, heard it, waited until the carriage was running smoothly, and then walked carefully to the front.

"My husband..."

Hearing his wife's voice, Lu Changge asked, "What's wrong?"

"Why didn't you go into the city just now?" Su Qingyun asked.

"There is no place to rest in that city..." Lu Changge told Su Qingyun what he had seen before.

Su Qingyun frowned when he heard this, "Will the next city be the same?"

"It's possible." Lu Changge replied.

However, there is another possibility.

After all, they are all people of Fenglai Kingdom. No matter what the reason, the emperor of Fenglai Kingdom cannot ignore it.

Moreover, the emperor had the help of the system, which made him even more powerful.

Lu Changge also learned from the system that the speed of the integration of the storybook world is related to solving the survival problems of the people after the disaster.

In order for the system to successfully complete its mission and successfully unbind Lu Changge, the system's wife will definitely ask its younger brother to solve the problem quickly.

Having said that, I still have to say that it feels really good to win without doing anything.

On the nineteenth day of the journey, Lu Changge and his party arrived at the second city.

Fortunately, the city was not flooded for long and the water was drained quickly.

Now, thanks to the efforts of local government and people, they have resumed their normal lives.

It even has the capacity to accept some refugees.

Of course, regarding the food issue, the two-thirds that were soaked in water were already inedible.

The rest I could only eat half full.

In order to fill their stomachs, people in the city spontaneously went out of the city to look for edible wild vegetables or other things in the suburbs.

After walking for nineteen consecutive days, we had to stop and rest for a few days to recharge our batteries.

After driving into the city, Lu Changge found an inn.

The inn also did not allow Dahei and Erhei to enter, so Lu Changge had no choice but to let them stay with the carriage.

Also staying with them was Da Teng.

After completing the check-in procedures, Lu Changge asked the waiter for a few buckets of hot water and food, and asked him to bring them up quickly.

Doctor Xu and the coachman lived in the room next to Lu Changge's so that they could be taken care of more easily.

After going up to the second floor and closing the door, Lu Changge brought a plate of snacks for the children to fill their stomachs.

Su Qingyun took the package and went to the bed.

After a while, there was a knock on the door.

As soon as the door opened, the waiter brought up hot water and food.

I was sitting on a chair eating some dumplings as a snack, and while eating I saw a strange uncle coming over with the food.

Tuanzi looked up and saw a plate of giant lobsters, and slowly stopped chewing.

Erbao's reaction was more obvious. He smelled the fragrance of the food, patted his father's shoulder and wanted to go over.

"Daddy...food, food, time!"

"Okay, I'll give it to you."

After the waiter went out and closed the door, Lu Changge walked over to Su Qingyun and gave Erbao to him.

"Feed Erbao first. I'll go run you a bath."

"Okay." Su Qingyun brought the second baby over and sat him on the chair.

"Dad...Father...time!" Erbao stretched out his little hand and pointed at the braised pork on the table. He stared at it with his eyes straight and his saliva flowing out.

"No, Erbao eats this." Su Qingyun said as she took out Erbao's complementary food from the storage container.

Compared to the fragrant meals on the table, the sweet complementary foods that Erbao usually ate could no longer attract his attention.

Erbao turned his head away from the spoon, still pointing at the meat on the table with his little finger.

"Ci...Meat!"

"Don't eat this, let your father feed you..." Su Qingyun moved the spoon to Erbao's mouth.

"No... Rourou wants it!" Erbao raised his hand to slap the annoying spoon away, puffing out his cheeks, looking angry.

Seeing his younger brother slap the spoon away, Tuanzi subconsciously looked in the direction where his father had just left.

Seeing that his father had not come yet, Tuanzi breathed a sigh of relief.

But he still said to his brother with a stern face: "Brother, don't drop the spoon. If Daddy finds out, he will spank you."

Hearing the word "spanking", Erbao subconsciously reached out to cover his back, but his hands were too short.

“No fight…”

At this time, Lu Changge also prepared the bath water and came over.

Lu Changge knew exactly what was going on here without even looking.

After taking a look at the wooden spoon and the rice porridge that fell on the ground, Lu Changge walked over with a stern face.

The guilty Erbao saw his father coming and quickly grabbed his father's clothes and buried his face in them.

He even tried to hide himself in his father's armpit.

Seeing that Erbao was like a mouse seeing a cat, Su Qingyun was a little amused and helpless.

"Erbao, what are you hiding from?"

"Daddy hits me..." Erbao whispered.

Without waiting for Su Qingyun to say anything, Lu Changge directly picked up Erbao, who was covering his ears and stealing the bell, and held up his little butt with his other hand.

Then I came face to face with my second child.

"Did you disobey your father just now?"

"No..." Erbao shook his head, blinked and said innocently.

"Then what is this?" Lu Changge showed him the spoon and porridge that fell on the ground.

After Erbao saw it, he blinked his big eyes and said, "Bujidao..."

"Have you learned to lie?" Lu Changge looked at Erbao expressionlessly.

However, Erbao has become accustomed to his father's expressionless face and does not find it scary.

"No..." Erbao still shook his head.

"Do you know or not?" Lu Changge asked again, and added, "If you lie again, you will be spanked."

"...Jidao." Hearing that he was going to be spanked, Erbao hurried over to Little Chicken Pecking Rice and nodded.

"He who understands current affairs is a hero." As he said this, Lu Changge patted his little butt.

"Daddy hit me..." Erbao said with tears in his eyes, with a hint of disbelief in his eyes.

Didn’t you say you wouldn’t fight anymore?

Daddy is a liar!

"You deserve to be beaten for bullying your father," Lu Changge said, "and I will beat you again if you disobey me in the future."

"Daddy is bad!"

The author has something to say:
