On the way to escape from natural disasters: She went crazy with space

When they finished eating, Lu Hu, Lu Yuanzheng and Liang Pei each came back carrying a basket full of wild vegetables.

Yang Liuqing was the first to go over and took a look at the baskets on their backs. He asked in surprise, "How did you pick so many?"

They put down the backpacks, and Lu Hu pointed to a valley in the distance and said, "That hilltop, the whole hilltop is full of them. There are not only wild vegetables, but also mushrooms, bamboo shoots, and watercress!"

As they spoke, they poured all the wild vegetables in the baskets onto the ground.

When they looked down, they saw that the three baskets were indeed filled with various wild vegetables, including mushrooms, cloud ears, bamboo shoots and water chestnuts. Under the moonlight, they exuded charming luster and enticing aroma!

Lu Qingqing took a sip and the whole scent of spring was inhaled into her stomach.

Yang Liuqing looked at the food and arranged with a smile on her face, "Eat first. After eating, we will sort it out and store it away."

Lu Qingqing and her two maids had already brought up the dishes. Since there was no table, they just spread an oilcloth on the ground.

Three dishes and one soup, the staple food is dumplings!

The three men's first attraction was the neatly cut braised pig's head!

"There's also braised pig's head. I haven't eaten it for a long time. I'm in for a treat today." Lu Hu was the first to speak, but he couldn't leave the braised pig's head while talking, and he was almost drooling.

Yang Liuqing took the chopsticks and tapped his five claws, which were a little eager to move. His brows were slightly furrowed, and his voice was a little colder than usual. He said, "What's the matter? You don't know how to use chopsticks and you want to use them directly? In front of the children, you don't even care about your image. It's like I've been starving you for hundreds of years, right?"

"I can't help myself, I can't help myself, it really looks too tempting." Lu Hu took the chopsticks with a smile, picked up two pieces and put them in his mouth, took a bite and said three times "delicious" in a row, "It's so good, tasty and soft, everyone, use your chopsticks to eat, don't just stand there."

As he spoke, he put some into the bowls of several children, even into the bowls of Liang Pei and Lu Yuanzheng.

They are all old enough to get married. However, no matter how old they are, in the eyes of Yang Liuqing and Lu Hu, they are still just children!

Liang Pei and Lu Yuanzheng looked at the braised pig's head in the bowl and felt a little flattered, but they soon started to eat it with relish. The meat was so good, and the feeling of being cared for and pampered was so good. The two of them ate most of the pig's head in one breath!

At this time, Lu Hu was unhappy and said quickly: "Eat slowly, eat slowly!"

They didn't slow down, and Lu Hu's face turned pale as he shouted, "Good boy, leave some for your father!"

Lu Hu moved the plate over, but Lu Yuanzheng quickly picked up a few pieces of braised pig's head with his chopsticks!

Lu Hu was so angry that he started to beat him. How could Lu Yuanzheng let his father succeed? He ran away!

So, the father and son chased each other on the hillside!

The rest of the people just ate and watched the fun!

Laughter echoed through the mountains as everyone enjoyed this peaceful moment.

After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, they began to pack up the food.

Yang Liuqing classified and stored all kinds of wild vegetables, planning to take them to the market to exchange for some daily necessities when he arrived in Shuiwan City.

Land Rover was responsible for collecting the remaining braised pig's head and dumplings to be enjoyed later.

Lu Qingqing and her two children were responsible for sorting out the wild vegetables. They would first use salt frost to kill the water, then apply another layer of salt frost on them. They would wait for the sun to come out tomorrow to dry them, and they would become dried wild vegetables. As long as the dried wild vegetables were well preserved, they could be stored forever.

Everyone was busy with their work, and at this time, a hint of white had appeared in the sky.

In another half hour, it would be daybreak.

Everyone quickly tidied themselves up, lay on the ground with their clothes on, and closed their eyes to rest.

The full moon cast silver light in the sky, and everyone was instantly wrapped in the warm light, feeling the beauty of the night.

Lu Qingqing did not close her eyes, but watched all this quietly, her heart full of expectations for the future.

The next morning, they continued their journey.

They did not encounter much trouble along the way. They got out of the hills and mountains smoothly, and then walked along the road for more than 30 miles.

Finally, after another early morning, just as the sky was getting light, they arrived at Shuiwan City.

There are no guards at the gate of Shuiwan City. The walls on both sides are tall but a bit dilapidated, probably because they have not been repaired for a long time.

The streets in the city are narrow and crowded, and the houses are scattered and arranged in an orderly manner. People are busy coming and going, and the streets and alleys are filled with the breath of life.

As Yang Liuqing and his group walked into the city, they immediately attracted a lot of curious looks.

The main reason was that they had too many things on their backs, and although the clothes they wore had patches, they were in very good condition.

Because the clothes of all the people in the city were tattered, and some were even naked. Most of them had unkempt hair and faces so dirty that their facial features could not be seen clearly. They didn't care about these things, because no one would recognize who they were anyway, so they just let them be dirty!

This is not something they want to do, but they are forced by life. They can't even afford basic food and clothing, so why bother about these things? They are also too lazy to spend time taking care of themselves.

Their eyes fell on Lu Qingqing and the others, with curiosity, envy, jealousy, etc., but more of them were greedy and wanted to take it for themselves!

It was clear that they had once again put themselves in danger.

Lu Qingqing never dreamed that even now that spring has arrived, there are still people in Shuiwan City who cannot get enough food and clothing!

Are the people here too lazy, or is there something going on here?

Half an hour later, they arrived at the market, and Lu Qingqing found out the reason why they could not have enough food and clothing. It was because they were too lazy and only wanted to rely on robbing, and did not want to get the fruits of their labor by themselves.

There are no shops open for business in the city anymore; these merchants closed down early or moved away with their families to seek a living elsewhere.

There were still people doing business in the city, all of them were mobile stalls, and the things they sold were all products of spring, such as daily necessities such as cloth, clothes, oilcloth, kitchen utensils such as salt, frost, pots and pans, and food supplies such as rice, flour, and coarse grains. These things were not available.

All items can be purchased with silver or exchanged for other items!

The famine lasted for more than half a year, and the silver circulating in the market had long disappeared.

Most people obtain these items through barter.

Lu Qingqing and the others walked around and found that many stalls had few items available for exchange, and their value was not high. Most of them were mushrooms and wild vegetables, and there were very few meat items. However, they required a lot of items of equal value to exchange!

They all had these things, and as long as they were diligent, they could find them by themselves. After a round, they didn't find the items they needed to exchange, so they had to give up!

Yang Liuqing looked at the various stalls on the street and sighed:

"In the past, when we went to the market, as long as we had silver, we could buy anything. Now, even with silver, we can't buy what we want. I don't know what has happened to this world. It's still unknown whether we can return to the way things were before."

Lu Yuanzheng comforted her, "Mom, don't worry, we have hands and feet, we will definitely get through this difficult time."

Yang Liuqing nodded, but there was still disappointment in her eyes.

"We can only take one step at a time."

Just as they were about to leave, a vendor stopped them.
