Lu Qingqing quickly agreed: "Okay."

Yang Liuqing and Lu Hu gave Lu Qingqing many instructions before they were willing to leave. Before leaving, they left a pound of white flour for the two sisters, which was the bag that Lu Yuanzheng sent!

My second uncle's family didn't have much surplus food. If they gave them this pound of flour, I guess the three of them would have to live on plain water for several days.

Lu Qingqing quickly dug three bowl-sized taro pieces in the space for them. Afraid that they would notice something, Lu Qingqing scraped off the skin of the taro pieces and wrapped them in a layer of wood ash, making the taro look no different from the ones grown in the field before. Then Lu Qingqing stuffed them into Yangliuqing's basket.

When Yang Liuqing saw the taro, he suddenly shrank the basket, quickly hid it in his sleeves, and gently scolded Lu Qingqing:

"You are such a reckless kid. Where did you find the yam?"

"My father brought them back from outside. We still have several at home."

She didn't intend to tell anyone about the space!

"Then you keep it and eat it slowly. Second Aunt doesn't want it." Yang Liuqing took the sweet potato out of the basket.

Lu Qingqing hurried back home and closed the door. Yang Liuqing looked at the closed door, but did not dare to speak loudly for fear of being heard by someone, so she had to go back.

"Yaoyao, take care of the house at home. I'm going out for a while!" Lu Qingqing saw them go back and hurriedly said to Lu Yaoyao.

When Lu Yaoyao heard that her sister was going out, she immediately went to move a bench, picked up a mud brick and put it on the bench, and said with a mature and serious face:

"Sister, I will hold the door and not let anyone in."

At this point, Lu Yaoyao suddenly remembered that she hadn't seen her aunt go out just now. She looked around and asked in confusion:

"Sister, where is my aunt?"

Lu Qingqing didn't intend to tell Lu Yaoyao that Zhang Guihua had been killed by her. She lied and said, "My aunt just went out the back door."

The back door hasn’t been opened for a long time, but my sister said that my aunt-in-law went out?

What's wrong with my sister?

Forget it, just go out. Anyway, my aunt is a bad person, so she doesn’t care where she goes.

"Sister, please go and come back soon. I will guard the door and not let anyone in."

Lu Qingqing nodded, immediately took a cloth bag for going to the market and went out.

The sandstorm that had been blowing for a day and a night finally stopped at some point.

At this time, the dust on the ground had accumulated to a height of five inches.

Lu Qingqing walked past gently, but a lot of dust from the ground was still raised and floated in the air.

To go to the market, she had to rush to the village head to ask the village chief for a pass.

Since the famine broke out, the imperial court has sent officers and soldiers to garrison every village in Phoenix City.

The purpose is to prevent the victims from spontaneously rioting and running around to disrupt the management order of other state cities.

At the entrance of Muyang Village, there are five soldiers stationed there day and night to watch over the villagers.

There are 150 households in Muyang Village. Most of the people have the surname Mu or Yang. A small number of them are outsiders and have their own surnames. Lu Qingqing is one of them.

Passing by more than a dozen households along the way, Lu Qingqing found that they were either closing their doors or swearing and quarreling.

The content of the quarrel was undoubtedly about what to do for the next meal after this one?

The farmers who were once self-sufficient have now become disaster victims who have to rely on the weather for their meals.

Lu Qingqing didn't know for a moment whether she should say that the leaders of the Yan Dynasty were incompetent, or that the natural disaster was too cruel?

She came to the village chief's house and told him bluntly that Yaoyao's leg was injured by Lu Xiong and his son, and she wanted to go to the market to get two doses of herbal medicine for sprains.

Upon hearing this, the village chief Yang Kaili immediately frowned and cursed: "Damn it, I clearly warned them, but I didn't expect them to ignore my words at all. They are simply too lawless!"

Yang Kaili had just come back from outside when he heard the old woman talk about this. He was about to go over to take a look, but he didn't expect Lu Qingqing to come first, and he didn't expect the matter to be so serious.

Yang Kaili gave Lu Qingqing a certificate without saying anything, and said earnestly:

"Qingqing, buy the herbs and some daily necessities. We have been ordered to leave Muyang Village at noon tomorrow and go to the north to make a living."

Lu Qingqing had already prepared to leave, but she didn't expect it to be so soon, so she asked a question.

"Okay, village chief, where in the north are we going?"

"Chongzhou City in the north!" Yang Kaili said with a frown.

north?

Chongzhou City?

Why not go to the South?

Lu Qingqing also frowned.

Chongzhou City was not where Zhang Guihua went in her previous life. She saw in the picture that the place Zhang Guihua went in her previous life was Songjiang Prefecture in the south!

Songjiang Prefecture is a "fish and rice state" that produces a lot of rice and fish. It has always been known as "fish and rice". After the disaster victims arrived there, they quickly settled down and lived a prosperous life relying on the advantages of Songjiang Prefecture.

Now, the court is not following the route set in the previous life.

Does this mean that what happens in this life is also changing?

Chongzhou City, if she remembered correctly, was more than three thousand miles away from Phoenix City, and it was a mountain city with no paddy fields, only mountains!

Asking a group of disaster victims who only know how to grow rice in paddy fields to make a living in a mountain city, isn't this clearly a way of not letting the disaster victims survive?

I don’t know what the leaders of the Yan Dynasty are planning?

Yang Kaili is good at observing people’s expressions. Seeing Lu Qingqing’s frown, he quickly asked:

"Qingqing, what's wrong?"

Lu Qingqing thought about it and said: "Village Chief, Chongzhou City is a mountain city, much poorer than our current ancestral home."

Yang Kaili's face changed: "Chongzhou City is a mountain city? Qingqing, how did you know?"

"I heard it from my father."

Lu Qingqing's father had been travelling as a bodyguard for many years and had been to countless places. If there was anything that could not be explained, it would be right to just blame him.

Yang Kaili really had no doubts, his face became even more serious: “Qingqing, besides saying that Chongzhou City is a mountain city, did your father say anything else?”

"No, I just heard my father mention it briefly. Village chief, maybe I heard it wrongly."

Yang Kaili waved his hand: "Forget it, let's just stay in the mountain city. It's better than staying here and waiting to die."

However, asking the already weak disaster victims to settle down and make a living three thousand miles away is undoubtedly pushing them into a desperate situation!

The imperial court probably planned to give up on them. To put it nicely, they arranged a place for them to go, but to put it bluntly, they were just sending them to their deaths!

But what can we do? Since ancient times, the people have never been able to defeat the officials!

The unarmed people could not resist and could only obey unconditionally.

Whether you live or die on the road of obedience depends entirely on your luck.

Alas, in this cannibalistic world, when will the people ever have peace?

Yang Kai sighed with a trace of force, but in his heart he was thinking, how can he bring all the villagers to Chongzhou City safely and smoothly?

Seeing that the village chief was thinking about something, Lu Qingqing quickly said, "Village chief, I'll go buy something first."

"Well, go and come back soon. I'll go and tell the others to get ready. We'll set off at noon tomorrow."

"it is good."

Yang Kaili walked away with his hands behind his back. His back was even more hunched because he was worried.

Lu Qingqing has always known that he is a good village chief who is dedicated to the welfare of the villagers, but good people do not have a good ending...

Lu Qingqing's eyes became a little wet when she thought of the future of the village chief she saw in the painting...

But she can't change anything. The only thing she can do is to protect herself and her family!

Lu Qingqing soon arrived at the entrance of the village and saw five soldiers in uniform.

The crescent-shaped knife, the spear and the sword, and the black armor exude a cold and chilling aura, making people afraid.
