The whole family travels through time: escape from famine! No cheat codes yet!
Chapter 64: Is this a request to entrust an orphan to someone else?
Shen Luming's crying caused a chain reaction, and Shen Nannan, Shen Pingan and a group of other children were the first to start crying.
At last the girls, the women, the old ladies began to cry,
They were unkempt and ragged, and all of them were so tired that their backs ached and they could hardly walk. They were as thin as shrimps that had been cooked in a hot pot. They lay on the ground and cried bitterly. They really could not endure this kind of torture any longer.
The men also wanted to cry loudly and ask God what they had done wrong.
But she bit her lip unyieldingly and refused to let tears fall even though they were welling up in her eyes.
Shen Zhiqiu pursed his lips, gritted his teeth, and raised his head to look at the sky, but what he saw was the dazzling sunlight shining through the withered yellow branches and leaves.
In fact, the leaves and the sunlight were blurred and could not be seen clearly at all.
He still remembered the first time he met the refugees, he had wondered whether he and others would become like them. In fact, at that time he believed that with his and his daughter's abilities, such a thing would not happen.
But now, the only thing that makes them slightly better than the refugees is that they don’t have much food left, but they still have some dried meat.
And they will finish it soon. There are more than 300 people. If each person eats one pound of dried meat every day, they will eat almost 300 pounds.
What's more, it takes one hundred kilograms of meat to make thirty kilograms of jerky. When cows and horses die, they are so skinny that there is not much meat left.
Grandpa Shen covered his face with his hands, took a deep breath, and made a decision: "Little Sanzi, we are not leaving. You take the food and the children and leave! Take your whole family with you. Grandpa has seen through the world. If you don't come back to inform the village, everyone will have no choice but to die. We have been gone for so long and have taken advantage of your family for so long. It's enough."
Mr. Shen suddenly raised his head and looked at Shen Zhiqiu with a firm gaze:
"But you have to promise Grandpa that you will take the boys and girls with you. You don't need to take care of the younger ones. I know you can't take care of them. You can just take the half-grown boys and girls with you. They can also help you on the way. Their lives have just begun."
Hunter Gao also said in a hoarse voice: "Just take my four grandchildren and one granddaughter-in-law with you, and my little great-grandson can accompany me."
As soon as these words came out, Da Zhuang's wife burst into tears: "Grandpa, we won't leave. I want to die with the baby."
Gao Dazhuang and the other four also choked up and shook their heads. Gao Erzhuang said, "We won't leave either. Let's die together. It doesn't matter if we die alone. At most, we will be your sons in 18 years. Third uncle, you have done the best for our Gao family. We will protect your family and keep them safe even after we die."
Shen Mazi shrugged and said, "For our family, just take Goudan with you."
When he said this, Aunt Mazi cried even louder, but she did not object, because the Goudan Shen Mazi was talking about was the son of his younger brother Shen Douzi.
As for his own son, Shen Gousheng, he could only choose to give up.
But Shen Douzi disagreed and said: Take Gousheng away. Gousheng is older and can help the third brother.
Similarly, the startled Douzi wife also hugged Goudan with tears in her eyes: "Egg, mother can't bear to leave you, let's go together."
Doctor Guo said: "Let's take Silang away. He hasn't married yet."
He then looked at his other three sons and daughters-in-law, two daughters, and grandchildren, his eyes full of guilt. If possible, he would like all the children to go with him, but food and weapons were limited.
There is only so much water that can be collected each day, and only with a small number of people can we ensure survival.
Even Shen Changqing said, "Third brother, just take your eldest nephew with you. I don't want to leave anymore. I can't walk anymore."
Tian Cuifen suddenly raised her head and looked at Old Lady Hua, her eyes full of pleading.
After so many years of entanglement between the two old ladies, it can be said that they know each other quite well. To put it bluntly, they know each other's shit just by looking at each other's buttocks.
Of course, Old Lady Hua could see that this mortal enemy had finally surrendered, and she begged her again to take good care of his grandson for him.
At the last moment, the person Tian Cuifen trusted most was not Shen Zhiqiu, not his eldest uncle, but Old Lady Hua, with whom she had been arguing for so many years.
Who can understand this? What kind of feeling is this? Shen Youyou sees it but cannot understand it.
For a moment, the scene was in chaos, with voices everywhere asking for the care of an orphan. No one was greedy, and most people wanted to take a son or grandson with them. It couldn't be blamed on the fact that they favored sons over daughters, there was really nothing they could do about it, the ancient people believed that sons could carry on the family line.
Hunter Gao said he would bring his four grandsons with him because, although these four boys didn't have much martial arts skills, they were much stronger than ordinary people after so many years of hunting, and they could also protect Shen Zhiqiu and the others on the road.
Only Li Xiu'e hugged Shen Ping'an and cried bitterly, because she really couldn't ask Shen Zhiqiu to take Ping'an away, let alone die with Ping'an.
She could only choose to remain silent. Old Mrs. Hua covered her face with her hands. She really couldn't bear to see the look in her brother and sister-in-law's eyes. It was too painful!
Li Jingshu held Shen Luming in one hand and Shen Youyou in the other. They were also crying, but they were both crying in a suppressed manner. Although the tears were pouring down, there were still slight sobs from time to time.
It's really the current atmosphere that even the little kids feel they shouldn't cry out loudly.
Even Old Lady Wang, who had remained silent, decided not to leave and let the third brother take his eldest sister, brother-in-law, and Taohua Shitou with him.
She was half buried in the earth and had lived enough. She also believed that the third brother was a man of affection and would not ignore his eldest sister and the other four people.
At this time, Shen Zhiqiu had mixed feelings. If he did not have ancient memories and was still a modern businessman, he would take these young people with him because he felt that he had done his utmost.
But he has memories, and along the way, the grandfather always put him first in everything, telling him countless times: Little Sanzi, if anything happens, you have to run first. Only by protecting you can our Shen family have a future?
The future? What future? If you are all dead, even if I become a noble or a prime minister in the future, or even if I become an emperor, what does it have to do with you?
You all died and won't be able to enjoy anything. Hundreds of years later, who would know that the awesome Shen Zhiqiu was from the same clan as you, or who would know that the awesome Shen family had people like you?
There were also men who, when they encountered a pack of wolves, would immediately stand in front of them without any hesitation. When they encountered refugees or wild beasts, there would also be men who would intentionally or unintentionally block their figures, time and time again!
How stupid, extremely stupid, these ancient people actually believed that as long as a few people were left in a tribe, the inheritance would not be broken.
According to Shen Zhiqiu, death is the end of everything, so what does it matter if the inheritance is not cut off?
Only if you grit your teeth and survive, it makes sense; everything else is useless!
If it were him, he would not trust anyone and would not believe that his child could live well if he gave it to someone else!
In this world, you can't trust anyone except yourself!
Shen Zhiqiu swallowed hard, trying to scold them to wake them up.
But he had no saliva in his mouth, so the sound he made was very small and could not be drowned out by everyone's sobbing.
