Others are fleeing famine, but I am a salted fish

For a moment, there was a cry of grief at the back of the migrating team.

Mu Wanqing just felt it was so noisy, with noise, crying, and self-blame sounds endless in her ears.

She understood their concern, worry and guilt towards their family, but what problem could crying solve?

When she watched TV dramas before, she couldn't understand why the ancients cried, vomited blood, and fainted at any time. Not to mention how these skills were activated, the practicality alone was not very strong, but the ancients liked to use them one by one and used them with great pleasure.

Now seeing the live version, she can only say: ...It's too noisy, and my mind is getting more and more confused, okay?

In her opinion, one can be timid or arrogant, speak one thing to one person and another thing to another person, depending on the actual need.

Even if you fail to react immediately and come up with a solution based on different problems, you should at least review the situation as soon as possible, analyze it calmly, and make relevant corrections.

Lin Xiaoyue didn't want to step out, but the three families in front of her were already in disarray and their heads were in a mess. It would be too late to expect them to calm down and think of a solution.

"I remember that Sister Chunhua and our Sister Dahua both married to the next village. So, you and I will come together and hurry over to check out the situation. If necessary, we can take the two sisters and their families with us and flee together." Lin Xiaoyue spoke calmly. She squatted down and stood level with Miao, who collapsed on the ground and cried uncontrollably. She took out a handkerchief to wipe away the tears on her face, turned her head and continued to speak calmly to everyone, "As for Brother Tietou, Uncle Niu can go to Zhenshan with Uncle Dashan to see if they can find him back."

Everyone stopped crying and weeping upon hearing this, and were forced to accept the fact under Lin Xiaoyue's tone which was so cold that it seemed to freeze into ice.

Everyone also realized that the method Lin Sanya mentioned was the only and best method at the moment. Only by acting quickly could they find the person. Anything else would just be a waste of time.

"Why don't we talk to the head of the village and ask the other people in the village to wait for us? Otherwise, after we've been coming and going, the village team will have disappeared." Aunt Dashan sobbed and interrupted.

When the others heard this, they thought it was feasible. Otherwise, if they really waited for them to go back and forth, they would not know how far behind the team they would be.

If they can't find a team next time, they will only have to rely on a dozen people from the three families. Even if they add their in-laws' family, they are mostly a group of weak old people, women and children who are powerless. If they encounter bandits or vicious criminals, they may not be able to withstand it with just a few men.

Lin Xiaoyue was not optimistic. "Uncle Dashan and Uncle Niu can go to the front and talk to the head of the village later, but the possibility of having a large group of people waiting for our three families is very small. First, we are now fleeing from famine, and everyone is already very anxious and wants to find a place to stay as soon as possible. If everyone stops to wait for us, it will easily cause negative emotions among everyone, and then there is a high possibility that our three families will be excluded by the whole village. Second, even if there are other families who want to go back and look for people like us, too many people acting together will not only make the target too big, but also easily cause unnecessary trouble. Moreover, with more people, there will be more noise, and they will clamp down on each other, which will slow down the speed of action."

After hearing these words, everyone felt mixed emotions, but none of them denied that what Lin Xiaoyue said made sense.

It is not difficult to imagine that if someone else came back to look for someone and asked them to stop and wait, they might not be willing to waste time waiting for someone.

After a moment of hesitation, Uncle Niu clapped his hands on his face and rubbed them vigorously to calm himself down. Thinking about all these years, in order to live a world of two with his wife, he left his old son alone in the town without caring about him. It was indeed not what a father should do. In the past, he didn't think it was a big deal, but now the world is in chaos, and people's hearts are also in chaos. Who knows if we can meet again in this lifetime after being separated from each other?

Uncle Dashan and Aunt Dashan also made a plan and agreed to wait for him at the intersection ahead.

The three families each cheered themselves up, brushed off their dejected air, packed their luggage, and agreed on a meeting place. Then Uncle Dashan and Uncle Niu immediately ran to the front to find the head of the village.

Lin Xiaoyue and Lin Zhaodi did not wait for them to come back, but immediately rushed to the next village to find Lin Dahahua and Lin Chunhua.

Lin Dashan and Niu Laogen went to say hello to the village head.

Sure enough, as Lin Sanya said, the two of them had just mentioned it, and before they could finish their words, discordant criticisms were immediately heard in the team.

Some accused them of being selfish, saying that they only cared about their own families and ignored the whole village. Why should the whole village waste their time waiting for just three families?

Some people also agreed and said that their family members also settled in such and such village, such and such place, and so on.

There was one, then another, and various voices continued to sound, causing the already impetuous team to explode. There were many opinions, and everyone said you were right, and I said I was right. For a while, the clamor made people more and more uneasy.

Lin Dashan and Niu Laogen had never expected that their family affairs would cause so much dissatisfaction. They thought of San Yatou's reminder. If they made a fuss, they would be ostracized by the whole village.

At that time, the two of them thought that the third girl was worrying too much and thinking too much. How could it be so serious?

Now it seems that the situation is in chaos, with everyone arguing at the same time, and many families in the team are almost fighting because of differences of opinion.

At that moment, the two of them felt their scalps tightened, and their hearts tightened. They quickly spoke loudly to the head of the village, and at the same time told everyone that the village team did not need to stop and wait for them. It was their private matter to go back and look for people together, and they did not want to drag everyone down. They came here just to inform them, because they were afraid that if they looked back, someone would find that the three of them had fallen behind, causing panic, and that everyone would stop to look for them and delay their journey. If the journey was delayed and something else happened, the three of them would be guilty.

There was hesitation in his expression.

He was in a difficult situation. If he asked the whole village to stop and wait for them, it would surely cause dissatisfaction among others and cause trouble. When people's hearts were in turmoil, it was best not to cause more trouble, otherwise, there would be one, two, three, and it would be endless. This road to escape from famine was already full of difficulties. If this matter was not handled well and conflicts arose, I'm afraid the journey would be even more difficult.

But if he doesn't wait, he is afraid that the three families will harbor resentment towards him. Besides, they are from the same village. If he ignores them and lets them go on their own, taking their own life and death, won't the team fall apart?

From the perspective of the head of the village, the most important thing in managing the whole village is to find a way to unite the people, so that everyone can work together in the same direction. If you go east and I go west, wouldn't that make us a mess?
