The wolf understood Su Nanxi's words, but did not follow them. As always, whenever Su Nanxi came to the mountain, it would prepare a live gift for her, bring it to her, look at it for a moment, and then leave!
Su Nanxi eventually discovered this pattern, so she stopped going up the mountain so often. Another important reason was that she didn't have the time!
She avoids going to the mountains unless absolutely necessary.
The wolves dared not enter the village to look for Su Nanxi, so this pattern continued for quite some time.
Things have taken a dramatic turn.
The village chief rushed to the Mo family and asked Su Nanxi in a panic, "Mute Mother, what should we do now! The weather is getting worse and worse, and the mud in the fields is cracked and mottled! Many of the village wells are dry! If this continues, we won't be able to hold on for long! I'm so confused and don't know what to do. You often go to town, so you must have more experience. What do you think we should do next?"
The village chief was indeed very anxious, like an ant on a hot pan, pacing back and forth even while standing still, unable to stop for a moment, as if only in this way could he alleviate his inner anxiety!
He is the village head, and he has a lot of responsibility on his shoulders, but he is really at a loss in the face of the current situation!
No matter which option I choose, it doesn't feel like the best one!
How could I not be anxious when I was on the verge of not surviving?
Before, I didn't think much of it. As long as there was water and food, it wasn't too serious. But now things are getting worse quickly. Overnight, the village wells ran out of water. This is a big problem!
How can people be without water!
Whether it's for eating or daily life, we all need water!
Without water, we can't stay here any longer; we have no choice but to find a place with water!
This also means that they, like everyone else, have to leave their homes and go to other places to make a living!
They're going to become refugees too!
It doesn't feel right no matter how I think about it!
What a wonderful place this used to be!
Having lived together for most of their lives, their bond is very strong; who would want to leave so easily!
Another important question is, where did they go after leaving their hometown?
They have no idea about the outside world and just wander around like headless flies. That won't do. Reality doesn't allow them to keep trying and making mistakes!
I feel so lost and helpless!
Once they leave, no one knows when they'll be back. How could the villagers be willing to accept that?
The village chief had actually thought of many things, but he couldn't calm down to analyze them properly and make a serious decision.
Su Nanxi could understand his anxiety and restlessness; anyone would probably be in the same boat!
Su Nanxi was so dizzy from the village chief walking around that she paused for a while before saying in a heavy voice, "Pack your things and get ready to leave!"
She didn't want to say more; there was no point in saying more.
By this point, everyone should have a pretty clear idea of what they're going to do next.
People from nearby villages are gradually leaving; these things can't be kept secret any longer.
The environment in other villages was even worse than in Changna Village, and their living conditions forced them to flee much earlier.
Changna Village held on until the very end. Those from the neighboring villages who didn't leave were probably watching and seeing what Changna Village would do in the end.
They wanted to follow suit, not for any particular reason, but simply because they felt that following Changna Village was definitely the right thing to do!
"Sigh!" The village chief sighed deeply, feeling helpless and knowing that there was nothing he could do but accept it.
He stood there blankly for a long time, lost in thought, then let out a long sigh, as if he had finally made up his mind, "Alright! I'll go and talk to the villagers in a bit!"
Give everyone some time to think it over; tidying up also takes time.
Whatever choice you make, it's entirely voluntary.
At this point, no one cares too much; survival depends on yourself.
After the village chief left, the Mo family remained silent for a while. Old Mrs. Mo broke the silence, "Let's pack up in a bit! Su Su has been telling us to pack up and be ready at any time. I've been listening to her. The older ones don't need much packing, but there are many people and a lot of things, so it will probably take some time to pack."
Su Nanxi looked around and said somewhat sullenly, "Take the essentials, and leave the unnecessary ones behind. We don't know how long we'll be gone, and having too much stuff will only be a burden."
Mo Qinghe nodded, "Reduce as much as possible. Apart from food and drinks, just have enough for what you need!"
No one objected. It's not a trip; bringing too much would only slow things down and cause problems if we couldn't find anything to drink later.
Old Xu and Fu Mingchuan didn't have much to bring, just a few sets of clothes, that's it!
It's very lightweight!
Su Nanxi went through the matter in her mind and suddenly remembered that the sweet potatoes in the field hadn't been dug up yet!
He sprang up instantly, startling everyone around him.
Alright, everyone jumped!
"Susu, what happened?" Grandma Mo asked anxiously.
Su Nanxi realized she had been too abrupt and coughed lightly. "It's nothing! Oh, I'll go to town to check on my older brother and the others later. I told them to get ready to come back, but I don't know how they are doing now."
Oh! So that's what it was about!
They thought it was something serious!
We're waiting for them to come back. The town isn't far, so they should be back soon.
"I've already spoken to my uncle, my older sister, and Ahua. I wonder what their thoughts are. I'll go and see them all; they should have made up their minds by now!" Su Nanxi added.
Grandma Mo felt much relieved after hearing this. Her eldest brother's family, her daughter's family, and her two sons were all people she was very worried about. Her third daughter-in-law had thought of everything. She was truly commendable!
I am very grateful to Su Nanxi. No one else would think so thoroughly.
As mentioned before, this means that the third daughter-in-law has always maintained contact with them and visits them frequently!
I knew my third daughter-in-law was a good one!
With three daughters-in-law around, the family has a pillar of support!
Mo Qinghe followed, and Xiao Wu and Xiao Han naturally followed as well.
The four-person breakfast team had finished their business and packed up, and were getting ready to go home!
Seeing Su Nanxi and the others arrive, they also went to Mo Wenying's side.
Mo Wenying had no other choice but to follow her family wherever they went!
Otherwise, how could she possibly manage four children?
After hearing what Su Nanxi said, she made a decision overnight and had almost finished packing.
Chen Ahua's family lived next door, and the two families often communicated. Therefore, they also decided to go with the Mo family.
When we arrived at the Zhou family's house, the Zhou family members seemed a little off.
Due to the impact of the overall environment, the workshop has been shut down, and the whole family is at home. When they saw Su Nanxi and the others coming over, they were stunned for a moment, but then warmly welcomed them in.
Although his expression changed quickly, Su Nanxi still caught the unpleasant look on his face.
"Uh, we're tidying up, we're almost done!" Wang said somewhat sheepishly.
"Actually, we don't have much to pack!"
