At dinner time in the evening, it was much more lively than usual. Although only half of the people from Zhengjia Village and Dahuai Village came, there were still eighty or ninety people. Therefore, if the three villages were combined, there were about two hundred people.
After a quick meal, Village Chief Jiang and Village Chief Zheng gathered everyone together. Jiang Zhengmao reiterated the precautions he had mentioned before, and Village Chief Zheng nodded repeatedly.
"You guys are really thoughtful. We still have time and haven't had time to think about these things yet."
Village Chief Jiang waved his hands in shame. "Most of these were thought up by my cousin Boliang and my second uncle. I just learned from them. Anyway, let's remind each other of these things. It's already difficult, so don't ask for trouble."
Village chief Zheng also said a few words and gave some encouragement before getting down to business.
"I heard that you guys from Shili Village said you were going north before, but now you've changed your mind?"
"Yes, I plan to go to Ganzhou..." Village chief Jiang told the details from beginning to end.
Seeing that they were discussing enthusiastically, Jiang Huaixu went to the cart to check on Yun Qi.
What she didn't notice was that Jiang Yao had been paying attention to her. After she left, she found Jiang Fu and talked to her for a long time.
Jiang Huaixu picked up Yun Qi's hand and, while feeling his pulse, pondered how to use Chinese medicine to cure his illness the fastest. Yun Qi's condition had improved significantly, and his fever was temporarily under control, though he was still comatose.
Ever since she fled the famine, she had been reading some books on ancient medicine in her spare time, but she only learned the basics.
"Do you know medical skills?"
Jiang Huaixu turned his head to look at Yun Qi, who had already opened his eyes, and asked modestly, "How are you feeling now, while studying?"
"Better." He licked his dry, chapped lips. "Is there any water?"
"Wait."
After a while, Jiang Huaixu brought over the coarse flour cakes and water.
"We're out in the wilderness, so just make do with what you have." She put down the food and water, then pulled out a jade pendant from her bosom. "Your jade pendant."
Jiang Huaixu, who had no intention of taking care of the patient, put down her things and prepared to leave. After taking two steps, she suddenly remembered something, paused, turned around and said, "Oh right, we need to escape, your clothes are too ostentatious..."
"You guys deal with it." Yun Qi slowly sat up, picked up the pancake and started eating.
Jiang Huaixu was satisfied to see him eating the pancake with big mouthfuls, thinking that he was not someone who could not endure hardship.
"We'll set off tomorrow. There's medicine in the water, so get some rest tonight."
Yun Qi paused as he was reaching for the bamboo tube. He blinked slowly, then finally picked it up.
After drinking it, he couldn't help but frown. This time the water seemed even more bitter.
"Xu Jie'er, your second brother said that the guy named Yun Qi will follow us in the future?" Qian Xiuzhu asked in a low voice as she sat side by side with her little girl.
"Mom, he comes from an extraordinary family and has good skills. We won't suffer any loss if we save him."
Qian Xiuzhu reached out and rubbed her little girl's head. "Mother believes in your judgment, but now there are more and more people traveling with us, and mother is a little worried about you."
"Mom, don't worry." Jiang Huaixu comforted.
She also knew that she should be more restrained in the future. After all, there was Yun Qi. Even if he was grateful for her life-saving grace now, who knew if he would turn against her after he came to power?
"Second cousin." Jiang Fu trotted up to the two of them.
Qian Xiuzhu stood up, brushed off the grass debris on her body, and said, "It's getting dark, don't run around, go to bed early."
Only after seeing the two of them nod obediently did she leave with peace of mind.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Huaixu asked Jiang Fu.
Jiang Fu leaned close to Jiang Huaixu and whispered a few words.
Jiang Huaixu couldn't help but look at Yun Qi with amusement. It must be said that although Jiang Yao had a lot of thoughts, she had a good vision and actually fell in love with Yun Qi.
"Did you tell her what I said before?"
"She said I was a traitor and betrayed her." Jiang Fu lowered her head and fiddled with her fingers, feeling a little depressed.
"This is not betrayal. She approached you with ulterior motives. You are just giving her a taste of her own medicine. Escaping is not playing house. You don't have to pay attention to such boring things in the future." Jiang Huaixu said.
"Little sister! Afu! What are you whispering about?!" Jiang Wei's voice arrived before she even showed up.
As soon as she arrived, the atmosphere immediately became lively.
Jiang Huaixu listened to them talking, looking up at the bright moonlight pouring through the gaps in the woods. It was like a waterfall of gauze pouring down from the sky, ethereal and charming, with a few stars twinkling in the distance. This was a scene she didn't have time to appreciate quietly in modern times.
It will definitely be a nice day tomorrow.
*
Early in the morning, two hundred people set out in a mighty procession towards the east.
When Village Chief Zheng was young, he had been to Chongming Prefecture where Ganzhou was located. He knew how to get around and was like a living map. He would go wherever he said.
Jiang Lao Da and Jiang Da Lang each pushed a cart, and the things piled on the carts were mostly necessities for the road, such as food, gifts, and cooking utensils... Jiang Er Lang and Jiang San Lang stood beside each cart, ready to help push at any time.
There is still no place for Jiang Huaixu to use his talents.
In this family, the heavy work always falls to the men first, and only when the men cannot finish it will the women in the family do it.
Second Grandpa and Zheng Guihua's families were given a cart, and Xiaofeng and Shanwa both sat on it. Tianya felt sorry for her grandparents and was unwilling to sit. Jiang Huaixu could only hold her little hand and look after Jiang Fu and Jiang Rong from time to time.
Boss Jiang wanted Jiang Rong to sit on the cart, but Jiang Fu bit her lip stubbornly and refused to let go. Knowing that she didn't want to add burden to her family, Boss Jiang could only agree to her and repeatedly reminded her to put Jiang Rong on the cart if she got tired.
