Through the troubled times and famine, I just want to farm peacefully

After Lin Yiheng finished his work, he didn't see his sister in the carriage. When he heard the secret guard say that she was there, he came to look for her.

He sat down on a big rock next to Lin Yinan and looked at the refugees on the opposite side who were queuing up to get water.

"Will the water in the spring run out?" Lin Yiheng was worried.

Lin Yinan came back to his senses and knew what he was worried about. "It's okay. There is a hidden river underneath. The water will slowly rise again."

Considering her health, Lin Yiheng thought for a moment and said, "If it's too exhausting, why don't you fill the tank with water?"

"I know what's going on. Don't worry. I've also stocked up on some water. There's enough to drink."

"Come back, dinner will be ready soon."

Back at the camp, Yunying was playing with the children.

Lin Zhiyan rushed over and hugged her thighs, raised her little head, drooled at the corners of her mouth, smiled with a few tiny teeth showing, and spoke inarticulately.

"Mom, mom, I miss you."

Lin Yinan took her little hand and sat down on the cart next to her. Lin Zhiyan lay obediently on her legs with her head on her belly.

"younger brother."

During this period, Lin Yinan was in a coma for a long time and had no time to take care of Lin Zhiyan. Yun Ying took her back and often told her that her mother was pregnant with a little brother and asked her to be obedient.

Little Lin Zhiyan kept it all in mind.

Yunying looked Lin Yinan up and down. She really couldn't see what was wrong with her third sister-in-law, except that she was a little sleepy.

"Sister-in-law, you slept for so long that we were all scared. Brother San has been watching over you since he came back yesterday. He even got Doctor Lu and Yun Wu to check your pulse repeatedly."

Lin Yinan raised her eyebrows. She really didn't know, "What did they say?"

Yun Ying shook her head. "There's nothing wrong with the pulse. They're wondering if it's because the baby in her belly is taking too much of her mind."

As she spoke, she raised her head and looked around, then lowered her head to Lin Yinan's ear and said, "I also overheard that Third Brother asked Yun Wu if you would return to normal if you aborted the fetus in your belly."

Lin Yinan's heart suddenly shrank, and he asked, "What did Yun Wu say?"

"Yun Wu, I'm not sure. Besides, the fetus is big now. If you abort it, you will be in danger."

Lin Yinan himself was also confused. Could it be that the fetus was really causing the mental stress?

"Third sister-in-law, please don't tell Third Brother, I told you."

Yunying was very afraid of the third brother because of his gloomy face.

Lin Yinan raised his hand and pinched her cheek, which felt soft and smooth. "Don't worry, I won't tell him."

Then the two were attracted by the sound of children laughing nearby. Lin Yinan turned around and saw that they were twisting straw ropes. The raw material of the straw ropes was dragon beard grass, which they had cut back when they were still in the mountains. Before weaving straw sandals, they had to twist the dragon beard grass into straw ropes first.

The twisted straw ropes are used to weave straw sandals. People have to walk a long way every day, which wears out the sandals very quickly and they break after a short wear.

Lin Yinan saw Lin Xiaomei sitting on a rock, holding a straw rope between her knees, struggling to twist the rope together with one hand. Her injured hand was wrapped in a thin layer of gauze.

"Little sister, does your hand still hurt?" Lin Yinan asked her.

Lin Xiaomei turned around and smiled shyly at her, "Sister Anan, it has scabbed over and it doesn't hurt anymore, it's just a little itchy."

"The itchiness is because the wound is about to heal, so don't scratch it." Lin Yinan reminded.

"Well, my sister is watching me every day, so I don't dare to scratch it no matter how itchy it is."

"Your sister is so nice to you." Lin Chunni was indeed a good sister. She stopped to help out.

Lin Xiaomei's eyes sparkled, "Sister Anan is also very nice to me!"

Lin Yinan smiled, Lin Xiaomei's family is very hardworking.

When they stopped to rest, Chunni's mother went to the secret guards every day to help earn some food. Chunni and her two younger brothers helped Old Lady Zhao to make fire and collect firewood, while Lin Qingxiang was busy setting up tents and taking care of the livestock.

Lin Yinan chatted with Yun Ying about some family matters for a short while, and without doing any physical work, she felt sleepy again.

After dinner, she gritted her teeth and held on, wanting to wait until late at night when everyone was asleep to go to the spring and fill the water tanks and buckets in the space with water.

Yun Mo didn't show up until after dinner. He was holding a torch and carrying a bucket of hot water.

"Anan, I've boiled some hot water, go and wash yourself."

Having not showered for several days, in the afternoon, Lin Yinan kept sniffing the smell on her body. He saw the self-loathing expression on her face and secretly made a note of it.

Lin Yinan's eyes lit up, all sleepiness disappeared, the indifferent expression on his face softened instantly, he nodded and went to the car to get clothes.

Yun Mo brought the water to the makeshift washroom and stuck the torch on a peeled branch nearby.

"I'll help you guard outside, call me if you need anything."

"it is good."

Lin Yinan went in and put her clothes away. She reached out to feel the water temperature and found it was a little hot. She remembered that she hadn't washed her hair for a long time, so she took out two plastic buckets from the space, filled three buckets with hot water, and washed her head and took a bath happily.

Yun Mo stood in the distance, feeling vaguely strange. He only carried a bucket of water, but from the noise, it seemed that An Nan needed more than one bucket of water to wash.

Lin Yinan packed up, wiped his hair half dry with a towel, put on his clothes and came out.

Yun Mo took the empty bucket from her hand, smelled the faint fragrance on her body, and felt some emotions surging in his body.

He suppressed his anger and glanced at her half-dried hair, "Did you wash your hair? Is there enough water?"

"enough."

"You go back and rest first. I'll be on duty for the first half of the night."

Lin Yinan nodded slightly, "Okay."

Yun Mo wanted to talk but stopped himself. He wanted An Nan to say a few more words to him.

Looking at Yun Mo's departing back, Lin Yinan went to find Lin Yiheng.

He, Hu Shao and Liu Ji sat by the fire and chatted.

"Brother, I'm going to go take a look at the spring."

Lin Yiheng knew what Lin Yinan was going to do, so he stood up quickly and lit a torch.

Hu Shao and Liu Ji stood up and said, "Sister, we'll go too."

Lin Yinan said, "Let's go then."

It is only around seven o'clock in the evening and the night is as dark as ink.

There were fires burning around the camp. The three of them walked through the camp. After a day's journey, everyone was used to going to bed early, and some were already snoring.

The four of them soon arrived at the spring. Lin Yiheng shone the torch into the pool of water. Lin Yinan clearly saw that the water level that had receded in the afternoon had risen back to two-thirds.

"You two go upstairs and see if there are any refugees coming." Lin Yiheng sent Hu Shao and the other man away.

Hu Shao and Liu Yu didn't understand what the brother and sister were going to do, so they didn't say much and just did as they were told.

Lin Yinan walked to the water's edge, stepping on the stones laid on the mud by the villagers when they fetched water. She reached her hand into the water and used her consciousness to clean all the large vats in the space.

Lin Yiheng was afraid that she would fall, so he held the torch in one hand and held her arm tightly with the other.

Then he saw a magical scene: the water in the spring was decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In the darkness, Lin Yinan's face was pale, and beads of sweat the size of beans on his forehead slid down his temples.

She filled all the vats and then filled the empty gallon buckets.

Finally finished installing!

Lin Yinan breathed a sigh of relief, then his eyes went dark and he fell into the water.

Feeling the sinking weight in his hands, Lin Yiheng was horrified and hurriedly threw away the torch, holding her tightly with both hands.

"Anan! What's wrong with you?"

Lin Yiheng's scream attracted Yun Mo, who was on night patrol. The moment he picked up Lin Yinan, his hands became lighter and the person was snatched away by Yun Mo.

Yun Yi followed with a torch. In the light of the fire, Yun Mo saw beads of sweat on Lin Yinan's pale face.

His face quickly darkened with anger, and he turned to look at Lin Yiheng.

"What on earth did you ask her to do?"

Lin Yiheng had no way to defend himself. If he said that An Nan came to wash his hands, would he believe it?
