Escape after crossing
Chapter 28: The Journey of Escape
In addition to helping her family make clothes, Zhao also took apart her winter quilts and stuffed some food into them. However, there were only three or four quilts, so it was impossible to put all of them in.
Although some of the food was hidden, Doctor Hu was still stunned when he saw so much food.
Seeing that the Jiang family members were placed directly in the car, Doctor Hu asked them to wait.
Ask Jiang Hongyu to put the thick quilt on the outside, the food inside, and the medicinal materials on the thick quilt to build a wall.
He put all the food in the middle, took out some of the food he wanted to eat and put it away separately. Then, when he saw the oilcloth, he asked Jiang Runzhi to find a rope and wrap the food with the oilcloth.
He also told the Jiang family that if anyone asked, they should say it was medicinal herb. If anyone didn't believe him, he would solve the problem.
Jiang Ziluo saw everything in the yard from the kitchen. She was very happy that Doctor Hu could help her family in this way. She was also thinking about storing the food into the space later.
It seems that this method will be used temporarily. At worst, she can put it away when there is danger.
Seeing the food, Jiang Ziluo remembered the silver bills. He got up and ran to find Zhao without paying attention to the burning fire.
Seeing that no one was around, he lowered his voice and asked, "Mom, did you put away the banknotes?"
"Yes, in the pockets of my, your elder sister's and your inner clothes." Zhao said as she took out the newly made inner clothes and showed them to Jiang Ziluo.
Jiang Ziluo looked at it, nodded, and took the underwear to find Jiang Ziyan. Jiang Ziluo also felt that it was safer to keep it close to the body.
So the two sisters asked Zhao to help watch the door while no one was paying attention and put on new underwear.
Zhao also gave them some small change and asked them to keep it away by themselves so as not to be discovered.
There were only a little over three or two taels of silver left, which was easy to hide, and some copper coins.
After everything was cleaned up and everyone had eaten, and then the things in the kitchen were loaded into the car, then it was considered done.
Fortunately, there was still room for a few children in the cart. Seeing that it was almost time, Doctor Hu drove the ox cart and Jiang Runzhi drove the donkey cart, and they all went to the village entrance together.
Originally, Jiang Ziluo wanted Jiang Hongyu to learn how to drive a donkey cart, but Doctor Hu said he knew how to drive one and let Jiang Hongyu learn on the way.
They waited for a quarter of an hour at the entrance of the village. The village chief asked his eldest son to take a walk around the village, but there were still a few families who were unwilling to leave.
The village chief's eldest son, Zheng Daqiang, tried to persuade each family, but to no avail. Zheng Daqiang did not delay any longer and went back to the village to tell them the situation.
The village chief had no choice but to take everyone away. Jiang Ziluo finally embarked on his first escape from famine in two lifetimes.
Although she had been exercising for a few days, her body had not changed much. She just ate full meals for a few days and was still able to walk.
As soon as they left the village, the village chief led everyone to kneel down and kowtow three times in the direction of the village.
Everyone knew what it meant. The elderly in every family shed tears unconsciously, but when they looked at their sons and grandsons around them.
For the sake of the children's survival, I had to harden my heart and keep moving forward.
Only five or six households remained in Siyuan Village. Among these fifteen or sixteen households, the village chief Zheng's family had an ox cart, and the hunter's family had a horse.
Then there were the Jiang family's ox cart and donkey cart. When the villagers saw Doctor Hu driving the ox cart, they thought it belonged to Doctor Hu.
However, they were very curious about the Jiang family's donkey cart. Although they didn't live close to each other, everyone knew what each family looked like.
They had never heard of the Jiang family buying a donkey cart, and they didn't think the Jiang family could afford it.
But now everyone is in a very heavy mood and has not yet paid attention to the Jiang family's donkey cart.
Maybe because the village chief said they had to hurry on their journey, every family ate more than usual, so at the beginning everyone still had the strength to walk.
Some ignorant children, who may have had a full meal at noon, would jump and dance in groups of two or three following the crowd.
In some families, the adults are still sad and don't do anything, while some adults will still pull the children apart.
Children’s minds are the simplest. They play when they are full and sleep when they are tired. They are carefree.
Older and more sensible children know that the difficulty in eating a full meal is in order to walk more and create more paths for their families and themselves.
With so many people on the road, they inevitably walked slower. By the time they all arrived outside Luo City, it was already mid-afternoon.
They didn't have to enter Luo City, they could go to the next city from the official road nearby.
Jiang Ziluo couldn't help but look towards Luocheng. The streets where people could usually be seen seemed to be deserted today.
I wondered in my heart, 'Have all the people in the city got the news and left?
But if you think about it carefully, it's because Manager Hong has his own exclusive source of information.
It would be understandable if we knew it earlier, but it is impossible for the people in the city to know it.'
Jiang Ziluo thought about it, slowed down her pace, and fell behind the team. She wanted to go into the city to see what was going on.
He thought about it and did it. He took a few quick steps to catch up with Jiang Runzhi and told him that he had some things to buy and needed to go into the city.
Jiang Runzhi disagreed. It was impossible for a village to stop and wait for someone. Jiang Ziluo said, "Dad, it's okay. You guys are walking slowly. I'll catch up with you after I buy the things. It's very fast."
"No, you're a girl. If it's really like what Manager Hong said, the city would be in chaos. You can't go." Jiang Runzhi refused to agree no matter what.
"Dad, let me ask my eldest brother to come with me. We are both fast runners. After we buy the things, we will catch up with you. If there is chaos in the city, we will never go to the city, okay?"
Jiang Runzhi dotes on his children at home. Seeing that Jiang Ziluo had said this, he thought that the two children were indeed walking faster than this large group of people.
He called Jiang Hongyu over and reminded him several times to take good care of his sister and follow him after buying things.
So Jiang Ziluo and Jiang Hongyu slowly fell behind the team, and while no one was paying attention, they turned around and ran towards Luo City.
