On the wedding day, I was broken off, so I remarried his uncle

Two days passed in a flash, and we knew that Chen Yunyou and others would return today.

Master Qian led his servants early in the morning and waited outside the city with three carts of food.

"Here they come, here they come, sir. Master Chen and the others are here!" The servant who was sent to the city gate to gather information hurried back to report.

Mr. Qian immediately kicked the horse's belly and drove towards Chen Yunyou and his group.

Chen Yunyou, who had just led his men out of the city, saw Master Qian outside the city gate and hurriedly got out of the car to say goodbye to Master Qian.

Master Qian said to Chen Yunyou: "These are the food prepared for you. You don't have to worry about not being able to take these food away. I will let them go with you, and there will also be a team of servants to escort you back."

"How can this be done?" Chen Yun pushed to the right to refuse.

Master Qian patted Chen Yunyou on the shoulder and said firmly: "It's settled. Thank you for taking care of Qian Feng these days. I don't have anything to give, but fortunately these grains should be of some use. My dear nephew, please don't tell me about it!"

Seeing that Master Qian was determined, Chen Yunyou also accepted his kindness and stepped forward to express his gratitude, "Thank you, Uncle Qian!"

Mr. Qian waved his hand and said, "Okay, it's getting late, don't delay your trip."

Chen Yunyou bowed deeply to Mr. Qian again, and led a large group of people towards Nanyun County.

The convoy gradually drove out of the city, and the scenes in the fields were frightening to look at.

When I arrived, the crops in the fields were growing weakly, but they still looked alive.

But when I went back and looked at the fields, I saw the ground was completely withered and yellow. The earth had deep cracks due to the drought.

After traveling for a whole morning, Song Xile couldn't help feeling heavy-hearted as he saw withering and decay everywhere he looked.

Along the way, there were people with their families, carrying loads on their shoulders or pushing their belongings towards the city.

There were also some malicious eyes looking at Song Xile and his group.

However, Song Xile's team were all strong and numerous, so even though their eyes lingered on the food on the cart, they did not dare to rush forward and rob it!

In less than a day, they would be able to reach the provincial capital.

They heard that the prefect was kind-hearted and not only set up a soup kitchen outside the city, but also implemented a policy of work-for-relief.

As long as there is labor in the family and they are willing to go to work every day, they can not only get two steamed buns, but also an extra pound of food.

With this food, they can also feed their children at home.

Even if life is a little difficult, as long as we are alive and can wait until the rain comes, then there will be hope for the days to come.

That is why they are unwilling to risk their lives to grab food. Regardless of whether they can get it or not, if they fail to grab the food, they will lose their lives.

How will the family survive without its strong labor force?

These people also know how to weigh the pros and cons. When there is still a way to survive, who would be willing to take the risk of gambling with their life?

So they walked for two days in a row, and the journey was very smooth.

This situation continued until we entered Nanyang County.

Before setting off again in the morning, Old Song found his daughter and said, "Today we will try to avoid the village and take a detour through Nanyang County!"

In fact, when Old Song came, he felt that the situation in Nanyang County was not good, and now they have brought so much food.

No one had any intention of targeting them in the past few days, mainly because they were numerous and their guards were strong and sturdy, and they looked like they were not easy to mess with.

For those who go to the capital city to find a way to survive, there is still hope ahead, so there is no need to fight with them.

But the situation in Nanyang County is hard to say!

First of all, County Magistrate Yang did not allow the people to flee, but there was no relief provided to the people in the county.

When the people had no way to survive and saw that they were carrying so much food, they would definitely rush forward to snatch it at the risk of their lives.

When people are hungry, they will lose their reason. Old Song would rather they take a detour than face such a risk.

Song Xile comforted him, "Dad, don't worry, I've already told the Qiao brothers that we'll take a detour today and not enter Nanyang County!"

Even if Old Song hadn't mentioned this matter, Song Xile was still prepared to take a detour.

And what is the current situation in Nanyang County? They sent Yang Ji to exile. County Magistrate Yang must hate the two of them to death.

They certainly wouldn't be stupid enough to deliver themselves into the hands of their enemies at this time.

Led by Qiao Da, the group turned into a small road and prepared to take a detour.

However, there were many people who had the same idea as them. As soon as they turned into the path, they met people from Nanyun County with their families.

Different from the people fleeing famine seen in the previous few days, the people met today were more listless and thin.

When he saw the vehicles loaded with food passing by, the desire in his eyes could not be concealed.

Those people who were originally planning to flee to the provincial capital gradually stopped and followed the grain carts.

After half a day, the number of people gathered behind the car increased from one household of four or five people to three or four households, totaling nearly twenty people.

Upon seeing this, Qiao Da immediately found Song Xile and said, "Madam Song, we can't let these people follow our convoy anymore. We can still resist them now, but if more refugees join us, I'm afraid we won't be able to handle it!"

Song Xile looked back, his eyes falling on the staggering victims.

They followed the convoy like zombies, with empty eyes and numb expressions, as if they were just following the grain-carrying convoy out of instinct.

Under the empty clothes are their thin bodies, their shoulders are hunched, their backs are bent, and every step seems so heavy.

The children walking among them are even more heartbreaking.

Their heads appear unusually large relative to their bodies, and their thin bodies are like thin bamboo poles that could be blown down by a gust of wind.

Song Xile couldn't bear to continue looking at this group of people, she told Qiao Da, "The team should stop first, bring our dry food, and open another bag of food!"

"Call four more men, draw your swords and follow me!"

Qiao Da saw Song Xile's intention, his heart moved slightly, and he immediately went down to prepare.

He was also from Nanyang County, and seeing his fellow villagers living like this, he felt bad.

There was a way out for the people in the city, but the magistrate of Nanyang County, for his own selfish reasons, made the people of the entire Nanyang County live in dire straits.

Soon the convoy stopped in a flat open area.

Song Xile got off the donkey cart, and Chen Yunyou followed closely behind him.

Needless to say, he supports his wife in everything she does with his actions!

When Old Song saw his daughter and son-in-law were going to the disaster victims, he stamped his feet in anxiety.

It's already this time, how can I feel compassion?

He had seen it with his own eyes. The disaster victims were fighting for food. Once those people became brutal, they would even sacrifice their own lives!
