Traveling through the famine, I stockpiled supplies like crazy

Before leaving, Xu Han asked worriedly, "Grandpa Zhao, why don't you take two servants with you? The two children are still young, and if they get sick on the way, there will be someone to help."

The Taoist priest laughed and joked, "You are not usually so long-winded. These two children have been with us since they were young. Are you afraid that we can't raise them well?

Besides, your Grandpa Zhao is a doctor. He will treat your illness, so you can rest assured.

Next time I come back, I promise to give you a complete and healthy child."

Zhao Yunyun also smiled and came out to smooth things over, "Sister Xiaohan, don't worry! I'm here on the way, and I can definitely take good care of the two children.

The Taoist priest and Grandpa have travel experience, so don't worry."

As the saying goes, a mother worries about her son even when he is a thousand miles away. Xu Han didn’t think it was a big deal before, but since she had a child, she really worries about him all the time.

When I was at home, I was worried that they didn’t have enough food to eat or warm clothes to wear. What’s more, I’ll be gone for more than half a year. How can I not worry?

Since the itinerary was confirmed, Xu Han began to busy herself with preparing the things that the two children, the Taoist priest, and Grandpa Zhao would need for the journey.

Clothes for all seasons, daily necessities, food and medicine are all prepared.

As a result, the Taoist priest kept everything and took almost nothing with him.

In the words of the Taoist priest, the worst thing about going on a long journey is carrying a lot of things, which you won’t need much of during the journey and are not troublesome enough.

Grandpa Zhao also said that the simpler the better, so that it would be easier to get out of trouble if anything happened.

In addition, you will encounter many counties and markets along the way, so if you need anything, you can buy it at any time, which is very convenient and there is no need to bring so many things.

Xu Han thought it made sense and didn't insist.

The children will be traveling with you, so it is impossible for them to enjoy themselves. It is better not to bring so many things!

However, Xu Han was afraid that they would not be able to adapt to the food outside when they first went out, so she prepared some homemade pickles and various sauces for them.

The Taoist priest didn't insist on not wanting it, and he took some anyway, but not much.

In addition, I brought some tools needed for camping outdoors, as well as various supplies for cooking.

I didn't take anything else that could be saved.

However, Xu Han did prepare a lot of food for Zhao Yunyun, Yunhua and others, including canned fruits, sweet potato wine and so on.

In addition to the headdress and bracelets bought last time, Xu Han and Lu Chuan discussed and prepared a carriage of sweet potato wine for Zhao Yunyun, which could be considered a dowry.

She also gave 1,200 taels of silver as dowry money, but Zhao Yunyun confiscated it.

Grandpa Zhao also wouldn't let Zhao Yunyun accept it. Everyone knew that they were short of money due to their business and no one wanted to accept it. In the end, Xu Han had no choice but to prepare another truckload of sweet potato wine for her.

This thing is not available anywhere else, and using it to add makeup can also give Zhao Yunyun some face.

Worried that they wouldn't have enough money when they were away from home, Xu Han sewed a lot of banknotes into their clothes last night.

However, when the Taoist priest found out later, he only kept two bills worth one hundred taels and returned the rest.

Xu Han was helpless, and the Taoist priest was also helpless.

Finally, the Taoist priest said that this time he went out just to make the two children suffer a little, and they should not bring too much money.

Xu Han then gave up. Seeing that they didn't need anything, she simply stopped caring about it.

Having said that, before leaving, he still didn't give up and asked if I wanted to take someone with me.

After being rejected again as expected, Xu Han completely gave up.

Turning around to look at the loaded car, the two children had already packed their things and were getting ready to get in the car and set off.

Mu'er hugged Xu Han and said, "Mom, take care of yourself at home. We will be back soon. Don't worry."

Ze'er also came over and hugged her, "Mom, you have to eat more, eat more, and get fat, so you can give birth to brothers and sisters for us."

Xu Han hugged them both and said, "Okay, okay, mom knows. You must be obedient outside and don't make trouble. Don't leave the Taoist priest and Grandpa Zhao and run out by yourself. Do you hear me?"

Maybe by the time you come back, your younger brothers and sisters will be born."

The two children nodded obediently, feeling very reluctant to leave their father and mother.

But they also knew what it meant to go out this time. Although they were reluctant, the two children finally decided to go out and take a look.

After all, this was the first time for the two children to travel far away, and they were not accompanied by their parents. Lu Chuan, who had always let his children run free, couldn't help but give them a few instructions: "If you have any problems, go to your great grandfather and the Taoist priest, they will help you.

If you miss your parents, just write to us. Life is different outside than at home, so don't throw tantrums, because no one will spoil you.

Also, don’t cry when you encounter problems. If you can’t solve them yourself, ask for help.

You two have grown up now, you should not only take care of yourselves, but also take care of your great grandfather and the Taoist priest, do you hear me?"

After hearing what Lu Chuan said, Xu Han had a frown on his forehead. The two children were only a few years old, but he still expected him to take care of the Taoist priest and Grandpa Zhao. He was really bold.

Sure enough, fatherly love and motherly love are different, and the words of advice they give are different.

Finally, seeing that it was getting late, the Taoist priest waved his hand and asked the two children to get on the carriage.

Zhao Yunyun held Xu Han's hand and said, "Sister Xiaohan, you are still pregnant. You can't worry too much during pregnancy. Just leave the child to us and don't worry.

They will have to stay in South City for at least one or two months this time. They won't be outside for long, so they won't suffer much. Relax."

"Well, I'll leave the child to you. Be careful on the road and write to me more often in the future."

"Yes, I will." Zhao Yunyun said, and got on the carriage.

The Taoist priest shouted to Xu Han, "Go back, we are leaving."

Everyone waved and the carriage started moving forward.

Xu Han and Lu Chuan stood there and watched them leave. The two children also stuck their heads out of the car window to say goodbye to their parents.

This time when we went to South City, we had a total of three horse-drawn carriages, two of which were rented to carry sweet potato wine and other food, driven by the Taoist priest and Yunhua.

The other one was bought by Lu Chuan last time, mainly for the two children and Zhao Yunyun, with Grandpa Zhao and Zhao Yunyun taking turns driving.

It was not until the carriage completely disappeared from their sight that Xu Han could not help but wipe away her tears.

Lu Chuan hugged her in his arms and comforted her softly.

Seeing that they could no longer see the carriage, the two men started to walk back.

Because there were suddenly so many fewer people at home and the two children went out traveling, Xu Han was in a bad mood for several days. She was depressed all day and didn't laugh as much as before.
