Zhao Yizhu also smiled and nodded, saying, "Yes, sister, this time we are all going together and helping each other. We will definitely reach our destination smoothly."
After hearing this, the other people in the room also smiled with satisfaction. They started discussing the preparations for tomorrow's departure. For a moment, the house was filled with a lively and cheerful atmosphere.
Yao Qingshuang's face was filled with a relieved smile, and she nodded continuously, saying, "My dear relatives, this is really wonderful! Look, originally, thinking that we would be separated from you tomorrow, the third daughter-in-law was so sad and worried. Now that everyone can go together, the big stone in her heart can finally be put to the ground."
Having said that, Yao Qingshuang's gaze swept over the Zhao family members one by one, her eyes full of approval.
She thought to herself that the men in the Zhao family were all butchers. They were all tall and strong, and they looked majestic and intimidating whenever they stood there.
If anything happens along the way, taking them with us will greatly increase our safety index.
Zhao Suotou felt warm at heart after hearing what Yao Qingshuang said. He quickly stood up and said to Yao Qingshuang with gratitude, "Mother-in-law, thank you so much for giving us the sweet potatoes today. You know what, these sweet potatoes taste really good, so sweet. It's a rare delicacy to be able to eat such delicious sweet potatoes while fleeing famine."
As he spoke, Zhao Suotou couldn't help but recall the scene when he just received the sweet potatoes. He was really moved by the friendship that came in time of need.
He secretly thought in his heart that his mother-in-law's family was really generous. On the road of fleeing famine, everyone was short of food and lived a tight life, but the Su family was able to give so much food to their Zhao family. This was not just a matter of a few bags of sweet potatoes. It was clear that they treated them as real relatives.
You must keep this feeling in your heart.
If the Su family has any problems in the future, I will have to lend them a hand. I can't let them down with their sincere friendship.
Yao Qingshuang smiled and said, "As long as you like to eat it! I came across this sweet potato by chance in the capital. The owner said it was something brought over from foreign countries. I thought it was something new, so I thought about buying some to try.
I was worried that the boss was trying to trick me, but I didn't expect the sweet potatoes to be so delicious. It was a pleasant surprise to be able to taste such sweet potatoes when I'm used to eating coarse grains on a daily basis."
At this point, Yao Qingshuang's expression turned serious. She continued, "Since we're going to travel together, you should learn about the rules of Sujia Village in advance to avoid unnecessary trouble."
Yao Qingshuang turned to look at her son Su Wenjun, who was standing beside her. "Third brother, tell your father-in-law and his family about the rules of our village so they have a general idea of what's going on."
After hearing what his mother said, Su Wenjun immediately stood up, patted his chest, and agreed readily: "Mom, don't worry. I will explain to them the rules of fleeing famine in Sujia Village." After that, he walked towards Zhao Suotou and others, ready to explain the rules of Sujia Village one by one.
When Zhao Suotou brought Zhao Yizhui back to their home from Sujia Village, the family was sitting together with a look of worry and uneasiness on their faces. After all, what to do in the future has always been a big stone hanging in everyone's heart.
As soon as Zhao Suotou walked in, everyone's eyes were focused on him.
Before anyone could ask, Zhao Suotou said loudly with a face full of joy, "Sujia Village has agreed to let us go with them!"
The Zhao family members were stunned at first, and then burst into cheers. The depressing atmosphere that had been suppressed for a long time was dispelled without a trace in an instant.
"Great, that's great!"
"Finally, we don't have to travel alone!"
Everyone's face was filled with excitement and relief.
Then, they all got up and started packing their luggage and food.
Ever since they were separated by bandits last time, their family has been traveling alone, struggling to move forward in this chaotic world like a lone goose.
During this journey, they did not dare to travel with other people easily. Even if they met some passers-by who looked kind, they were always full of vigilance in their hearts.
After all, the world is in chaos and people's hearts are unpredictable. Who knows if others will suddenly have bad intentions?
If they happen to encounter someone with bad intentions who robs them or uses some shady tricks when they are not paying attention, then they will be helpless.
Although the Zhao family does have many able-bodied men, all of them are strong and healthy. They have also developed strength and courage through their skills as butchers.
But there were many women and children in the family, so they really didn't dare to gamble on this chaotic road. They could only move forward alone carefully, being extremely careful with every step they took.
Now, knowing that they would be traveling together with the people of Sujia Village, everyone felt much more at ease.
Although they are not from the same village, the two villages are not far from each other, and most people know each other, so they know each other well.
Now that they can return to the big group and have so many familiar faces around them, the Zhao family suddenly feels safe.
Everyone packed their luggage swiftly.
The children were also helping. Although they were still young, they knew that this was in preparation for the upcoming journey, and they all did their job in an efficient manner.
Zhao Suotou looked at the busy family with a relieved smile on his face. He prayed silently in his heart, hoping that this time he could travel with the people of Sujia Village and reach their destination safely so that his family could live a stable life.
The night before, the Zhao family turned off the lights and went to bed early, but they were worried about going out with the Sujia Village team the next day, so they didn't sleep well.
It was still dark, but the Zhao family members had already gotten up.
Zhao Suotou sat up, rubbed his sleepy eyes, and hurriedly urged his wife and children: "Hurry up and get up. Don't miss the time and miss the Sujia Village team."
Upon hearing this, the family did not dare to slack off at all. They quickly got dressed, washed, and packed up.
At the first hour of the morning, just as the eastern sky was beginning to turn pale, the Zhao family had already hurried to Sujia Village.
As soon as I arrived at the village entrance, I saw the villagers of Sujia Village busy packing up their things, and some were counting the number of people. It was a lively yet slightly chaotic scene.
Seeing this, the Zhao family breathed a sigh of relief and secretly thanked God that they were not late.
