So what if you flee from famine? Start all over again and live a good life every day
Chapter 12 Lin Wangxiang
"Second Grandpa, Second Grandma!" Sui He, who had solved the money problem, was delighted and ran to Second Grandma in a hurry.
"Hey, slow down, don't run so fast." The two people who were still discussing in the grain store heard the voice and looked back, and saw Sui He running towards them with a small basket on his back.
The two hurriedly walked to the side, held her back, and wiped the sweat off her face: "Why did you take so long?"
"Oh, Second Madam, I was delayed for a while because of something. Look what this is?" Sui He smiled mysteriously, his eyebrows curved, his eyes sparkling, and he looked like he was asking for praise.
He put the silver ingot in his hand into Second Grandma's hand and said, "Second Grandma, we have money now. We can buy a lot of things."
"Where did you get this?" Feeling the texture and size of the money in her hand, which seemed to be about twenty taels, the second grandmother was surprised and quickly held the thing in her hand tightly.
The second grandfather's expression also changed slightly: "Where are you from?" He stared at Sui He seriously, as if he wanted to see through her.
"Don't worry, Second Grandfather, this money is clean. I haven't done anything bad. I just promised them not to tell others where the money came from, so..." Sui He lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Second Grandfather. She knew what Second Grandfather was worried about, but she really couldn't explain the origin of such a large sum of money.
The air suddenly became quiet. Sui He was cautious, lowering her head and feeling uneasy. After a while, she heard a sigh above her head, and then a big hand patted her on the shoulder.
"Grandpa knows. Since you have promised them, we will not ask any more questions. But Sui Sui, you have to understand that in life, there are things you should do and things you should not even touch."
"Okay, I understand, Second Grandpa." Sui He looked at Second Grandpa in surprise and nodded happily.
"However, now that we have money, we can buy more food later." Second Grandma said with a smile.
Sui He also laughed, "Yes, let's buy more and a small cart, so that Second Grandma doesn't have to walk, I will hold your hand and walk with you."
"You spend money recklessly. I'm still strong and healthy, so why do I need to buy a car?" The second grandmother couldn't stop smiling at what Sui He said.
"Money is meant to be spent, Second Madam, just spend it. I will make a lot of money in the future, and spend it all on you, and also buy two little maids to serve you."
"Okay, I'll rely on Sui Sui from now on."
The second grandfather was also very happy to see the two of them getting along harmoniously.
"Uncle Chen, how is it, have you bought everything?" At this time, a strong man came out of the grain store. He had a dark face, bright eyes, and was dressed simply. He was carrying a huge heavy bag on his back and walked towards Suihe.
"That's enough, that's enough. We are few in number and can't eat much. We have prepared everything." The second grandfather answered the man and turned to introduce Sui He. "Sui Sui, this is your Uncle Hope. For the rest of the journey, we will follow their village."
"Hello Uncle Wang" Sui He greeted Lin Youwang politely
"Hey, Uncle Chen, this is your kid, right? All right, he'll follow us from now on so we can take care of him along the way." Lin Youxiang looked Sui He up and down, then said, "His arms and legs are so skinny. He needs to eat more so he can have more strength."
"Ah, okay..." Sui He responded awkwardly.
"Uncle Chen, let's go. The villagers are still waiting for us outside the city." Lin Youxiang adjusted the sack on his shoulder and walked towards the city gate.
"Second Grandpa, shall we follow them next?" After walking a distance, Sui He asked quietly from behind.
"Well, I've observed that this person is from Linjia Village. Their village is also suffering from severe disasters. They have no choice but to flee if they want to survive."
"This man is called Lin Youxiang. He is honest and kind-hearted. He is the eldest son in the family and has two younger brothers. They are also decent farmers."
"I have just discussed with him to take us along on the road. Seeing that there are only three of us, he agreed that we can follow the villagers. Although we are not close friends, it is safer than traveling alone anyway." The second grandfather still has lingering fears when he thinks of what happened yesterday.
"Then where are we going, Grandpa?" In fact, Sui He didn't care where we went, as long as there were grandpa and grandma there.
"We will follow you and Uncle Wang to Yingcheng. That place is in urgent need of people right now. The government has issued a notice that as long as we go there, we will be exempted from taxes for five years and the government will also distribute land. We will go there."
Sui He listened to his second grandfather's words and nodded repeatedly, indicating that he understood. Sui He and the other two followed Lin Youwang out of the city gate. From a distance, they saw a lot of people gathered in groups of three or four outside the city gate. They stretched their necks to look inside the city gate, hoping to find their relatives.
"He's coming out, he's coming out, he's coming out!" Seeing Lin Youxiang go out, several women immediately surrounded him at the city gate.
"How is it, Wang Xiao, did you buy the food?" a woman asked anxiously, her eyes constantly looking at the big bag on Lin Wang Xiao's back.
"Mom, don't worry. I've already bought it. It's enough for us to get to the next county. Second brother, are third brothers back?"
"That's great!" The people who were traveling with him were all happy.
"It's good that we bought food. They came back a long time ago and were waiting for you." Hearing that food was bought, the woman breathed a sigh of relief. She turned around and saw Sui He and the other two following her son. "Who are these people?"
"Oh, Mom, they are Uncle Chen and Aunt Chen, and their grandson. Where's Dad? I have something to talk to him about."
"Your father is discussing something with your third uncle, go find them."
"Okay, I'll go find my dad and the others." After returning to the camp, Lin Youxiang put down the food on his shoulders and waved to Sui He and the others, "Uncle Chen, come with me to see my dad."
"Okay, thank you for your help." The second grandfather took Sui He and followed Lin Youxiang towards the group of people.
"No trouble, no trouble. This world is not easy for anyone." Lin Youxiang waved his hand and shouted to the crowd.
"father"
The voice was full of energy, and the few people who heard it knew who it was without turning around.
"Brother, you're back, how are you?" A man who looked about the same age as Lin Youwang turned around. It was Lin Youcai, Lin Youwang's second brother.
"Don't mention it. The price of grain has increased too fast. Millet costs thirty copper coins per pound."
"Hiss" Lin Youcai took a breath of cold air "Why is it so much higher?"
Lin Youxiang shook his head. "It's been two years of drought. The fields can't grow crops. Everyone has no food. Those merchants are taking this opportunity to raise prices."
Lin Youcai: "But, this increase is too much, it has increased tenfold."
Lin Youxiang sighed. What else could they do? The crops couldn't survive in the fields. They could only spend money to buy food. If they didn't buy food, the whole family would starve to death.
"Dad, I want to tell you something"
