"Father!" Jiang Yun Zhu hurriedly called to stop him. She saw just now that after the thick pancake fell to the ground, there were figures shaking in the nearby houses. That tanned man openly robbed and no one came out to stop him. This clearly indicated some problems.
In famine years, people can do anything to survive. So it was better to be careful.
Jiang Cheng was worried about Mrs. Chen and the others, so he abruptly stopped.
Jiang Yun Zhu hurriedly helped the old man pick up pancakes.
After a while, all the pancakes were collected.
"Thank you, thank you." The old man couldn't stop expressing thanks. These pancakes were his life.
"No need." Jiang Cheng helped him put the pancakes on the donkey cart.
At this moment, a young man hurried out of the village carrying a bucket. He saw Jiang Cheng and immediately shouted, "What are you doing!"
He was the old man's son and had just gone into the village to buy water. When he heard the old man shout, he ran back as quick as possible. Seeing Jiang Cheng holding his family's pancake bag, he thought he was going to snatch their family's pancakes.
"Qing Shan, it's not him. He helped out." Father Xu quickly halted the young man.
The young man came over and asked the whole story with a few words. Only then, he realized that he had mistaken the benefactor for a thief. At once, he apologized to Jiang Cheng.
"No need. Let’s get out of here quickly." Jiang Cheng noticed the figures nearby and said vigilantly.
Everyone set off immediately and left the village.
When they reached the edge of a town and no one was following them, everyone felt relieved and started talking.
Father Xu and Xu Qing Shan were from the neighboring county. They also fled to the south, but they had a goal - going to Changshi Village in Wuling County in Lu Prefecture. Over there, Father Xu had a distant cousin. They will go there to visit relatives .
But according to Father Xu, he hadn't contacted him for four or five years. So he didn't know the situation there.
Afraid, it wasn’t much better. Jiang Yun Zhu thought to herself while listening. When Xu Qing Shan came out of the village just now, she felt that he looked familiar. However, she didn't dare to recognize him. But now she was almost sure that it was him.
Xu Qing Shan. In the dream, he was Jiang Yun Xiu's husband, a.k.a. her younger brother-in-law. She didn't expect them to meet here. It seemed that fate was really amazing.
She remembered that in the dream he and Jiang Family lived in Qinghe Village in Lu'an County in Lu Prefecture. Not Changshi Village in Wuling County. It meant their relative visiting didn’t not go well.
Of course, there may be other reasons. Just a slight difference and the matters in this world will go in completely different directions. In the dream, Jiang Yun Zhu only found Jiang Family seven years later and only met Xu Qing Shan two or three times. So she didn't know much about his past.
Unexpectedly, they met him here in advance. It goes to show that fate was sometimes very strange.
Jiang Yun Zhu’s mind was running wild. When Father Xu heard that Jiang Cheng and the others were going to the south, he immediately invited them to go on the journey together. This way, they can have care.
Going with Father Xu group, Jiang Cheng group benefitted. They were two men and a donkey cart. Jiang Cheng and the others consisted of old and young. And there was only one small cart.
At first Jiang Cheng didn't want to drag them down, but Father Xu insisted on this. So the two families joined together.
Jiang Cheng continued to push the small cart. He was young and strong. It wouldn’t be a problem to keep up when the donkey cart moved slowly.
Mrs. Chen and the others could also take turns sitting in the donkey cart for a while. This made it a lot easier for them.
The two families chatted a bit from time to time and got to know each other better.
In Jiang Yun Zhu's impression, Xu Qing Shan was tall, but was often seen hunched over. He was taciturn and seemed to listen to Jiang Yun Xiu in everything.
But look at him now- a slender body, a rough face, and two piercing eyes. I can’t imagine how he will become the way he was in seven years later.
Jiang Yun Zhu kept staring at Xu Qing Shan and Xu Qing Shan seemed to have sensed it. He turned to look at her.
The eyes of the two met. Jiang Yun Zhu didn't dodge and smiled friendly at him.
Jiang Family's children were all good-looking, but the prettiest ones were Jiang Yun Zhu and Jiang Yun Xiu. They all have fair skin, long brows like willow leaves, almond-shaped eyes, and red lips like plums in snow.
It was just that Jiang Yun Zhu's appearance was on the softer side, like an apricot blossom in spring. While Jiang Yun Xiu's appearance was more charming, like a silk hibiscus.
Her smile was delicate and tender like a watery light shining. It was indescribably moving.
Xu Qing Shan blushed immediately and hurriedly withdrew his eyes. He had never seen a more beautiful girl than her. Especially those eyes. Clear contrast between black and white. It was as if they had stars.
Jiang Yun Zhu didn't pay it any heed. She didn't want to judge someone because of what happened in her dream.
Two days later, the group arrived at the edge of Zhuding County. Changyuan County was further ahead. There was a large piece of uninhabited wasteland in the middle and no where to replenish drinking water. So they stopped at a small shop by the road to rest. Firstly, to rest the feet. Second, to buy some water and take it with them on the road.
In the past, when there was no drought, one could go to various houses to ask for some water to drink. But now it was no longer possible. A bucket of water costs ten yuan. It was a necessary to buy it.
After paying the money, the shop brought out a bucket of water for them. The water was also muddy yellow.
Jiang Yun Zhu took out her simple filter bottle. After a while, a little bit of clear water flowed down from the jar.
No matter how many times they looked at it, Xu Qing Shan group and Jiang Cheng group found her filter bottle very novel. Why did the inputted dirty water come out of such an ordinary vase so clean?
They sat at a table by the roadside, drank tea and ate pancakes as they waited for the water to be filtered before heading on the road.
At this moment, a group of people and horses suddenly came from the west like thunder.
The team of more than a dozen people were all tall and sturdy. The people sitting on the horses were all dressed in black clothes with golden Qilin patterns embroidered on them.
With swords on their waist, everyone was full of murderous aura.
Especially the one heading the group. He had a pair of slightly slanted phoenix eyes, which was cold like glaciers.
Although the people in the small shop didn't know the origins of these people, they all knew that these people weren’t someone they could mess with. Unconsciously, they fell silent and looked over there cautiously.
Seeing that person, Jiang Yun Zhu’s heart couldn't help but pound. Why was it him!
In famine years, people can do anything to survive. So it was better to be careful.
Jiang Cheng was worried about Mrs. Chen and the others, so he abruptly stopped.

Hmmm... This is such a cliff! Who is the new arrival?
ReplyDeleteIf she has pretty face, isn't it dangerous to go outside? Why not smearing something on her face?
