Traveling through ancient times to escape famine, I have a treasure chest so I don't have to wo

On the official road, several carriages slowly drove out towards the city gate not far away.

"There aren't many people here today, so let's go into the city quickly. We can buy some medicine for Dad and then go back quickly."

"No, no, watch your step, wife." It had snowed heavily in the past few days, and the road was muddy and slippery. The man who was speaking was worried that his wife would fall, so he immediately pulled her over and led her away.

"Let go, there are so many people here!"

"What are you afraid of? You are my legitimate wife. Wife, come closer. It will be warmer in my arms!"

The voices of pedestrians began to be heard around the carriage.

Xu Ning curiously opened the carriage window a little, and the cold wind blew in immediately, making Xu Ning shrink his neck due to the cold.

Gradually, as her body adapted, Xu Ning opened the window a little more. Her vision gradually widened, and her eyes were soon attracted by the ancient city wall not far away. She saw two large, vigorous and powerful characters written on the wall - Qin County.

Xu Ning couldn't help but turn his head and asked Old Lady Xu curiously: "Grandma, why is this place called Qin County? Is it because there are the most people with the surname Qin here?"

Old Lady Xu nodded and replied, "Yes, a long time ago, most of the people living here had the surname Qin. But later a tragic war broke out, and they all died on the battlefield."

Xu Feng also pricked up his ears and came over to ask, "Grandma, since there are so many people with the surname Qin living here, why didn't you change the name to Qin County before? What was the original name of this county?"

Grandma waved her hand impatiently and said, "I don't know! I don't want to answer your questions. If you want to know, go ask your grandfather."

Xu Feng grumbled with a look of grievance: "But the master is in another carriage, I can't pass now."

"When the carriage stops later, switch places with your mother."

However, Xu Feng shook his head like a rattle and said firmly: "No, I don't want it. My second sister can't live without me."

Xu Ning couldn't stand it when he heard this, "Ugh, ugh, ugh, Xu Feng, please go away and stop disgusting me here!"

Just as the brother and sister were still bickering, the voice of the city gate guard came from the front, "Stop the carriage in front and go into the city for inspection!"

The carriage stopped quickly, and Xu Da, who was in the carriage in front, opened the curtain in front of the carriage and handed over all the documents of the Xu family.

The soldiers guarding the city took the documents and checked the people in several carriages. When they found no problems, they allowed them to pass immediately.

After the carriage entered the city, all kinds of noises began to be heard on the streets. Xu Ning and Xu Feng could not help but stick their heads out of the window to look, and were immediately attracted by the snack stalls.

"Xiaofeng, did you see that? That's fried tofu, right? It looks so springy and chewy, and it looks so delicious!"

"Gudong, Second Sister, please stop talking. I can smell something. It smells like roasted chicken. It smells so good! Grandma, why don't we stop and rest for a day before we go on!"

"Yes, Grandma! It will take another day to get there anyway, so why don't we just rest in the city for a day before going back!"

Old Mrs. Xu looked at the two monkeys' excitement and did not discourage their enthusiasm. She told the coachman to find an inn for them to stay in first.

"Oh, milk is the best!"

Old Mrs. Xu smiled helplessly, and when getting off the carriage, Xu Ning and Xu Feng rushed to help her out.

"Auntie Xu!" As soon as Auntie Xu stepped on the ground, she heard a familiar voice not far away!

The Xu family members looked in the direction of the voice and saw a person wrapped in black and gray coarse cloth. When he saw that the Xu family members were looking at him, the person waved enthusiastically.

"Dad, this voice sounds familiar."

"It sounds familiar to me too."

The Xu family members gathered together, and the man calling Old Mrs. Xu also came over. When he took off his mask, the Xu family members finally recognized him.

"Little Tiger!"

"It's me, Aunt, Uncle Lao Gen, Brother Dayong, Sister-in-law. Why are you back?"

"What are you doing?"

"I, I came to the city to buy some food. Isn't the New Year coming soon? My mother asked me to buy more food to bring back for the New Year!"

"So that's how it is! We're coming back to celebrate the New Year too, so we can get together then!"

"That's great, I won't bother you for now, let's talk again when we get back to the village!"

"Hey, hey, hey, don't leave in a hurry, I have something to ask you!" Xu Da hurriedly called Xu Xiaohu. Xu Ning pulled Old Lady Xu towards the door of the inn, turned around and called to them: "Dad, Uncle Xiaohu, let's go into the inn and talk. It's so cold outside, don't stand there."

"Yes, yes, yes, listen to my daughter, Xiaohu, come here soon!"

Xu Xiaohu was a little hesitant. He was so excited just now that he called out to people and didn't pay attention. Now that he noticed the attire of the Xu family, he immediately became restrained.

"Hurry up, what are you doing? Isn't it cold outside?" Seeing Xu Xiaohu standing still, Xu Da immediately stepped forward and pulled him over.

Xu Ning and his companions entered the inn first and sat down to drink hot tea. When Xu Da and Xu Xiaohu came in, they saw Xu An taking out a silver note to pay while the others sat down and drank tea.

"Dad, Uncle Xiaohu, have some tea!" Xu Feng poured a cup of hot tea into each of their hands. Xu Xiaohu was scalded by the tea in his hand before he came back to his senses.

"Thank you, Xiaobao!"

"You're welcome, Uncle Xiaohu. I have a real name now, Xu Feng. Uncle Xiaohu, you can call me Xiaofeng from now on!"

"Hey! Good! Xiaofeng!"

"Hehe!" Xu Feng scratched his head and sat down.

"Xiaohu, stop standing and sit down!" Old Mrs. Xu could see that Xu Xiaohu was feeling uncomfortable. They hadn't seen each other for so many years, so it was normal for them to feel unfamiliar with each other. They just needed to talk more.

"Hey! Auntie!"

"Xiaohu, I just heard you say that it was your mother who asked you to come out to buy food? Is your mother in good health now?" After drinking the tea, Old Mrs. Xu's hands and body felt much warmer. She picked up a plate of snacks from the shopkeeper and handed it to Xu Xiaohu.

Xu Xiaohu bent down and took it. "My mother is in good health. She often talks about you."

"She's not going to return my bowl of chicken soup, is she?"

"Yeah." Xu Xiaohu couldn't lie, so he could only nod. Xu Ning couldn't help but laugh secretly, thinking that Xu Xiaohu was really the most dull and honest person she had ever met.

"It's been so many years and she still remembers it! If I don't come back, won't she have no chance to pay it back?"

"Mom said Aunt Chunhua will be back!"

"She does understand me! Xiaohu, when did you come back? Did you get married?"

"I've been back for two years, aunt. I got married in the south a few years ago, and my son just turned one year old this year!" Xu Xiaohu's face was full of happiness when he said this, and Old Mrs. Xu was also happy for him when she heard it.

"Has anyone else returned from the village?" Xu Da couldn't help but ask.

"Yes, the village chief and his family are back." Xu Xiaohu said this with some trepidation, after all, something like that happened when they were fleeing from famine.

"Is it just the village chief's family?"

Xu Xiaohu shook his head and said the names of several villagers in Xujia Village, but when it came down to it, only Xu Xiaohu and the village chief's family returned intact.
