The whole family travels through time: escape from famine! No cheat codes yet!
Chapter 19 is really useless!
The next day, people got up at daybreak and slept for only about three hours in total. In Shen Youyou's words, it was not even as long as her Sunday nap, which earned her a big eye roll from her mother.
After getting up, Shen Zhiqiu began to arrange things
First, the men cut bamboos, punched through the joints and left the bottoms, and made bamboo tubes as tall as a person to hold water.
After the water was filled, the mouth was sealed, and the carts were tied up in rows. The wooden baffles on the carts were replaced with bamboo rafts filled with water.
If there is a carriage, they will tie a circle around it. When there are people on the road and they are short of water, they can knock a hole under the bamboo tube to get water. When someone is getting water, the others will block it.
Also, try to have each person carry a bamboo tube on their back, and do not share the same bamboo tube with others to avoid spreading diseases.
Second, the old men all followed Shen Youyou's bench-like tools to rub corn. If there was no bench, they used wooden boards, and if there were no iron nails, they used wooden nails. When they set off again, they rubbed the corn kernels as quickly as possible and put them in bags. They could not leave them hanging like this after entering the disaster area.
Third, women made more cloth shoes on the carriages to prepare for the future when they would not be able to ride in carriages and would have to walk on mountain roads.
Fourth, weapons were distributed. Those who did not receive weapons were to use machetes, shovels, and axes from their own homes. Everyone must have weapons, including the elderly and children. If they were too young, forget it, as they would hurt themselves.
Fifth, we must unite as a team. If we snatch one thing, we are snatching it from everyone. We must protect the food and protect all of us. If we see someone kneeling and begging for food, no one is allowed to give it. We must stay alive, stay alive!
After all the preparations were completed, everyone boarded the carriage. Shen Zhiqiu's family still took the lead, Gao Lao's family followed in the rear, and Dahu and Erhu were responsible for patrolling in front and behind to ensure that everything was safe.
Shen Zhiqiu gave an order: "Remember, if anyone dares to come up and rob food, beat them to death! We must survive! Let's go!"
Immediately afterwards, the second carriage belonged to Mr. Shen's family.
Mr. Shen, who is so old, is also rubbing corn vigorously in the car at this moment.
While rubbing, he said to his little grandson beside him:
"Look at how capable your little niece is. She can make such a useful object with just a few pieces of wood and bamboo. She must have learned this from your third brother. She should study hard after she settles down!"
Behind him was Shen Zhiqiu's second aunt Tian Cuifen, holding the large knife she was given, waving it constantly and commanding her youngest son to follow. If the momentum was like this yesterday, her youngest son would definitely not dare to do anything naughty.
Doctor Guo from the village was sitting in a carriage preparing his Chinese medicine. He was thinking about making some cool and refreshing tea for everyone at noon.
At the back was the hunter, Mr. Gao. He was holding a large knife, the same as Erhu's, and his voice was like thunder: "Grandchildren, watch out behind you, if anyone comes up, just chop them."
My goodness, the sound was so loud that it could hardly be contained in a large pot. Ugh! It was so loud that even Shen Youyou, who was at the front, could hear it.
She wanted to say to Grandpa Gao: Look, there is no one else on this road except us. If we see someone, just shout!
Eighteen households and fifty or sixty horse-drawn carriages made for a magnificent sight.
The wooden wheels rolled on the bumpy dirt road, making a series of harsh squeaking sounds.
There were three more sisters in Shen Youyou's carriage because her father told everyone to squeeze in and the empty carriage should be filled with more water.
Now there are grandma, three sisters and her in the carriage, and my younger brother has gone to my mother's carriage.
This time, Shen Youyou also joined the ranks of rubbing corn. It’s impossible for her to sit idle while her sisters work, right?
"Crack! Crack!" The whole team made the same sound in unison, like a chorus.
"Hiss!" In less than half an hour, blisters had formed on Shen Youyou's fingers.
Sister Erya hurriedly checked her fingers and said distressedly, "Why are there so many blisters?"
Old Lady Hua was heartbroken when she heard this: "Oh, it's really Miss's body! I just made a few and it became like this. You should just fix those mosquito coils or something, they'll be perfect for use at night!"
The old lady loves her little granddaughter and cannot let her sit idle. Her two granddaughters and one granddaughter are all working.
Even if the other three granddaughters have no objection, if others see the youngest granddaughter resting alone, they might spread gossip.
Sister Taohua also came over: "How about I prick it for you? It will hurt more. It will be better if I squeeze out the pus!"
Shen Zhiqiu was distressed by what was said in the carriage. When his daughter wanted to rub corn at the beginning, he wanted to say that she couldn't do this job.
But when I saw that my nieces and nephews were all working on it, I didn't say anything.
In fact, he was also thinking that since they were fleeing from famine, his daughter would have to suffer a lot, so she should be tempered first!
After hearing this, I couldn't help but say:
"Yo Yo! Go ride your horse outside, don't squeeze in the carriage, follow behind your Grandpa Li, and be sure not to cut your fingers, in case you get infected again."
Taohua paused as she was about to find the needle and thread, and looked at her sister's fingers: "Hey, why don't you just bear with it? What if it gets infected like Uncle San said after the puncture?"
Shen Youyou disagreed: "Pick it out while it's still not too hard. It will heal in a day or two. If you wait and accidentally tear it, the cut may get bigger."
Shen Zhiqiu thought about it and realized it was right: "Then you can pick the peach blossoms for your sister. Wash your hands first and then pick them."
"Okay, Third Uncle."
Taohua was a very thoughtful girl. Not only did she get water for Shen Youyou to wash her hands, she also washed her own hands before picking bubbles for her sister.
In fact, Shen Youyou is really disgusted with herself now. She is so useless. She is still so spoiled at this time.
She didn't listen to her father and go out to ride horses to be lazy. Instead, she took out the mugwort and started making mosquito coils.
The mint I picked is a little wilted and I can’t distill it into alcohol for the time being. It’s really frustrating.
The team of more than 200 people and the gleaming carriages also attracted the attention of some refugees in front.
When they first saw it, they thought it was the conscripts chasing them, but they were relieved when they saw that it was full of horse-drawn carriages and so many armed men.
Many people turned back to look when they heard the sound. This was the longest line along the way.
I thought: This must be a wealthy family, there is corn hanging on it, and there are so many horse-drawn carriages.
But would anyone dare to rob? Look at the driver's shiny sword, a serious weapon.
You can tell at first glance that it wasn't made in a random blacksmith shop. Look at the three men on horseback, they have murderous looks on their faces, they must have really killed someone!
There were also some half-grown kids in their car, sticking their heads out of the windows, revealing their weapons intentionally or unintentionally, staring at them with wide eyes, as if they had done something to this group of people.
They really want to say, we have food and money, so we don't need to do robbery. Don't look at us like that!
At this time, Shen Yuanbao shouted in the convoy: Anyone who comes to rob will be killed!
It was so terrible that the children all shouted: Kill him, kill him!
Shen Zhiqiu was so scared that he thought someone really came up to steal things!
When Shen Zhidong saw his third brother looking back, he immediately yelled at his son, "Go back quickly! What are you yelling about? You're so jumpy!"
"Don't I just want to scare them and teach them a lesson?"
This child always likes to talk like adults. Every time Yang secretly beats Erya, she would say something like, "I told you not to learn your lesson. Let's see if you can learn it!"
