usbands.The joy of being reborn from the brink of death brought tears to everyone's eyes.There's joy, there's regret, and even more pain.“Doctor Zhang, please save me! Please save me!”"My leg, a chunk...The small courtyard was her greatest secret, but also the foundation of their family's well-being.

At this time, fleeing again, she didn't want to be exposed, but taking advantage of the convenient storage conditions, it was easy to put away everything from her house that couldn't be taken.

There are still food, vegetables and fruits in the space. Fortunately, they haven't been taken out yet.

Five mu of land is enough for the family to eat for half a year.

She is more diligent and can continue to plant another crop after harvesting the grain.

Both sides are almost constantly spacious, with no harsh winter blizzards.

No need to consider the change of seasons!

There are also chickens, ducks, rabbits, and pigs in the small courtyard. They can also help tide us over during hard times.

Even if I eat all my rations, I'm not afraid. At worst, after arriving in the land of Tezhou, I can find a way to get new ones.

The most important thing left is self-defense!

There are still unknown dangers on the road, so it's always good to have some self-defense.

Gather stones, keep storing them. When the critical moment arrives, unleash a hailstorm of rocks. Even against hordes of barbaric horsemen, you'll have a fighting chance...

She was lost in thought.

Meanwhile, the whole family had already gone about their busy day.

Only Jia Yi, with a face full of hesitation and shame, stood before Lao Li.

Jiayi whispered, "Grandma, should we go ask about my mother"

Li Laotai looked at her grandson, sighing in her heart.

Although no one mentioned it explicitly, everyone knew that Wu Cuifang was still a minefield.

Actually, based on what Wu Cuifang has been doing, it would be better if she stayed home and never left.

Although she was a difficult woman, she gave birth to two good sons.

Jia Ren has the makings of a scholar and will surely take the imperial examinations in the future.

Civil service exams are not just about how well you study, but also about the evaluation process.

This assessment is about the family situation. Is there any adultery or wrongdoing Are they oppressing those in the countrysideAre they disobedient and disrespectful to their elders

In general, the whole family and the examinee cannot have any moral defects.

And having a discarded mother would definitely become a stain on Jiaren's character.

After all, filial piety is paramount.

No one knows what Wu Cuifang did to make the Li family kick her out.

He only said that Jiaren was unfilial, regardless of the mother who gave birth to and raised him.

Jia Yi, despite his wild and rough demeanor, is actually a filial and kind child.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have knelt last time and begged me for fever medicine.

The Li family is cautious and afraid to act rashly, it's not that they don't want to give up Wu Cuifang, but because they feel sorry for Jia Ren and Jia Yi.

Moreover, Wu Cuifang didn't steal anything, she didn't cause any deaths, and when Li Laoye passed away, she also put on mourning clothes and paid her respects.

These things put together, Lao Tai Li would tolerate her in every way.

But she couldn't resist her own desire to die, and actually stole the gift Jiayin had sent out.

Jia Yin is the apple of everyone's eye and the most beloved member of this family. This household simply can't keep her anymore.

Therefore, after forcing her into ten years of hard labor, both Jia Ren and Jia Yi felt that this was the punishment she deserved.

Besides, the wages were given to Jiaheng for his studies. It could be said that as a mother, she had done her best for her son.

But now, seeing that the world is about to be in chaos and everyone is fleeing for their lives, Sunzi watches helplessly. How is Old Lady Li supposed to speak up

Could it be that we have to flee, abandoning your mother Leaving her to die here

Li Laotai let out a long sigh, “Jia Yi, go see your mother. Tell her that there's much work to be done with the autumn harvest and ask her to come back and help. Be sure not to reveal anything! If she doesn't come back, it means she hasn't repented. Let her fend for herself. Our Li family will just pretend our daughter-in-law is dead. You just hate our family, I don't care anymore."

Jia Yi immediately knelt down and kowtowed, "Thank you, grandmother. Just this once, if my mother doesn't return, my older brother and I will consider her dead."

Li Laotai waved her hand, urging him to hurry into the city.

Jia Yin rolled her eyes, really not wanting to see Wu Cuifang's face again.

But she didn't want grandma to get angry, so she took a piece of fruit and hugged grandma's leg.

"Milk, eat!"

Li Laotai came to her senses and, seeing the red fruits in her granddaughter's hands, the wrinkles on her brow finally eased a little.

She didn't know what magical abilities her granddaughter possessed, but on their escape from hardship, she never allowed her family to starve.

This time restarting, it shouldn't be wrong.

As long as one is not starved to death, there is hope for everything.

"Little Fú, my darling granddaughter, I'm afraid I'll have to rely on you again this time.

Oh, poor little one, having to worry and work so hard for the family. Grandma can't bear it.

"You say this world, how it just doesn't let people live a good life!"

Li Laotai's eyes reddened. In front of her children and grandchildren, she had to hold it together, but in front of her granddaughter, she could finally complain a few words and shed a few tears.

Jiayin hugged her grandma's neck, her little chubby hands patting her shoulders.

Again and again, trying to comfort her...

For a Wu Cuifang, Old Li was furious. As a result, only Jiarren came back with the mule cart in the afternoon, there was no sign of Wu Cuifang at all.

Now, Old Madam Li and her entire family were surprised. Could it be that Wu Cuiflower didn't want to come back, preferring to stay in the city and do hard labor

Jia Ren Jia Yi's face was not good, it wasn't clear whether it was a blush of guilt or worry.

Jiayi spoke first, “Grandma, we went to the big courtyard, but my mother wasn’t there. Apparently...she ran away with my uncle. The mistress even forced my father to pay three ounces of silver before returning his work contract.”

"They ran away Where did they go"

Li Lao's further question made Jia Yi blush even more.

"I don't know, it seems like he's been gone for quite some time. No one knows where he went."

Jiaren lowered his head and bit his lip tightly.

Dad and his younger brother went to the academy first to pick him up, and then went to the big courtyard to find their mother.

The women in the big courtyard were harsh with their words, saying things that were very hurtful.

What about running off with some wild man, or going out to enjoy herself

There were even rumors that she had gotten pregnant and gone somewhere to give birth...

He really wished he could find a hole to crawl into!

They have been patient with their mother for so long, bearing all this hardship at home. How can their mother not be a little more considerate

Li Lao Tai guessed how much, not willing to let the two grandsons lose face, so she said.

"In times like this, with your mother acting this way, there's nothing we can do. We don't have time to search for her all over the place. Let's just hope for the best. Our family needs to escape first."

Jia Ren and Jia Yi nodded, put down their things and quickly followed suit.

Although the Li family has only lived there for a year, everyone in the household, young and old, can earn money, and they have saved up quite a bit of wealth.

>

But Jia Yin couldn't bear to leave. When she had nothing to do, she would sit at the entrance of the building.

Although there are many crates and baskets in the storeroom, they are all empty.

She had already put everything away.

Not only that, she also took away most of the firewood at home. Dried vegetables and mountain goods, in short, anything edible that she passed by, she didn't let it go.

While the Li family was busy harvesting, no one noticed.

It's just that I discovered it, and I thought someone else had put it away. I didn't have the time to think about it.

The village head originally planned to organize the villagers a few days later to help the Li family reclaim their land.

Seeing the Li family suddenly taking action, I thought it was because of the Liu family stealing food again.

He immediately found Li Er's place and grabbed him, complaining.

"Your family is in a hurry, and you don't need these few days. The sun is just right, so why not dry the sorghum grain some more."

Several old men from next door also arrived shortly after.

Although he held a sickle in his hand, he was somewhat reluctant to strike.

Li Laoer, seeing that no one was around, pulled them to one side and whispered a few words.

The village head jumped up immediately, "What, what did you say"

The rest of the old men also had faces ashen, unconsciously reaching for their missing limbs.

Li Lao'er quickly stopped the village chief, lowering his voice and saying.

"This matter shouldn't be publicized yet. As for whether we'll move the capital to Zhou, there's no news from Kyoto yet. "

If we don't relocate, we'll be spreading rumors and causing panic among the people. That would lead to severe punishment! We can only make preparations in secret.

If this news is true, the city will be in chaos within three to five days. Then we need to set off immediately and head south, best to get there before those from Kyoto, otherwise we'll easily be left behind.

My dears, Huahua is here again to sell cuteness and beg for more updates and five-star reviews! I'll send two chapters today, and there will be one more at night. Don't forget to come and see it, my babies! Come chat with me! Love you all! single mistake is allowed. Otherwise, everyone will lose their heads!""The master and the apprentices in the courtyard are not allowed to leave their workroom tonight. After delivering the cake to th...
