Transformed into an extremely evil grandmother and fled to escape famine with her children and grand

With the topographic map of Li State, they felt at ease.

The old village chief and his companions were looking at this map to find which area would be best for them to settle down after arriving in Youzhou.

Everyone said that of course the best place is the one with mountains and water.

Han Mingjiang and Han Zhaoxiong sat beside them with drooped heads and didn't say a word. They were worried about Han Mingxiang and Han Shulan.

When Xue Lao Hu saw that everyone was concerned about something too far away, he said, "Let's see which direction would be more convenient for us to go in the next two days."

He said, "I think we should go down this ravine.

You see, there should be a small river here, and there should be water halfway up the mountain. Once there, we can fill up our tanks with water, then go down the mountain and take the official road to Youzhou.”

Han Shunde looked at the map, nodded, and said, "Okay. We'll go down the mountain through this valley."

Li Lanzhen asked the old village chief, "Old village chief, how many days do you think we should stay here?"

The old village chief looked around and saw the roaring waterfall, the clear pool, and the lush wild vegetables growing around it. He really didn't want to leave here, but this was not a place where he could settle down and live.

He sighed, "Let's go down the mountain early the day after tomorrow. Let's have everyone pick more wild vegetables in the next two days. Dry them if possible and make them into dried vegetables to take with us on the road."

Xue Lao Hu nodded and said, "I will take the men to the mountains in the next two days to hunt as many wild animals as possible, such as pheasants and rabbits."

In the evening, everyone returned to the camp one after another, and Han Shunde told everyone that they would go down the mountain and take the official road to Youzhou early the next morning.

He told everyone to dig more wild vegetables, wash them, dry them, and take them with them to eat on the road. He also told everyone to make more wild vegetable pancakes. The wild vegetable pancakes are smaller in size, so when you are hungry, hold them in your hands and eat them quietly. Don't provoke the fleeing crowd.

He also said, "We have been fleeing famine for so long, some of the villages around the government offices fled earlier than us, and they should have run out of food and water by now, so everyone must be careful along the way.

Don't be kind anymore, and don't harm the entire village just because you think you are kind."

Speaking of this, Li Lanzhen suddenly remembered, why hasn't she seen Han Yanyan come out for several days?

But she didn't ask.

A woman who lived next to the old village chief stood up and said, "Old village chief, your swallows are probably smelly, right? They made us unable to sleep all night."

The old village chief's eyes immediately turned red, and Gu Yushi immediately rushed out, wiping his tears and saying, "You are talking nonsense, my mother is fine!"

Aunt Huaihua came out and pulled the ancient jade stone into her thatched hut.

Li Lanzhen looked at the expressions of their family members and estimated that Han Yanyan would not live long. But what did it have to do with her? She brought this upon herself. Who could she blame if God wanted to punish her?

She stood up, brushed the grass off her butt, and went into her own thatched hut.

We had chicken and potato soup and wild vegetable pancakes for lunch. Both adults and children were full, and we ate late.

Therefore, every family would make some wild vegetable soup to drink in the evening to fill their stomachs.

Li Lanzhen also drank a bowl of wild vegetable soup, not because she liked it, but because it made it easier to go to the toilet.

People went to bed early. The mountains were very quiet. The people in Hanjia Village were full, in a good mood and slept soundly.

“Mother~~”

A shrill scream woke everyone up.

Li Lanzhen opened her eyes and thought to herself that Han Yanyan might be gone.

She turned over without moving and continued to sleep with her arms around Miaomiao.

Miaomiao mumbled in her arms, "What's wrong with grandma?"

Li Lanzhen patted her on the shoulder, "It's nothing. Maybe someone else is having a nightmare? Miaomiao, be good and go to sleep."

The grandfather and grandson fell asleep again in each other's arms.

Before falling asleep, Li Lanzhen knew that her eldest son and second son had gone out.

She didn't say anything to stop them. When you are out, it is your duty to lend a helping hand to the whole village.

Aunt Huaihua cried like a tearful person.

She gave birth to two sons and had this one daughter. She was not allowed to marry at first, and she insisted on marrying into the Gu family.

In that family, not only was she bullied by her mother-in-law and sister-in-law, but her own husband also often beat her.

The two children were not well disciplined. Aunt Huaihua felt that her daughter was very pitiful. If she had known this would happen, she would not have let her get married and would have kept her by her side.

No matter how sad it is, she still has to be buried in peace, the old village chief called her Aunt Huaihua.

"Okay, it's better for Yanyan to stay here. There are mountains and water, a beautiful place with clear water and green mountains. Bury her high up where she can see us."

Gu Yushi tightly grasped Han Yanyan's hand and kept wiping away tears, "Mom, mom, why did you leave me? Mom, please get up? From now on I don't have a mother. Mom, please get up. From now on I will give you the cakes to eat. I just need to drink some water."

Aunt Huaihua felt even more upset when she heard what she said. She grabbed the ancient jade stone and

He patted her back and said, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. You still have grandma. Follow grandma. If grandma has something to eat, you won't be without it. We will reach Youzhou after we go down the mountain. It will be good in Youzhou. We can be assigned to a village to build a house and farm. Just follow grandma."

The ancient jade statue grabbed a life-saving straw, tightly grasped Huaihua City's sleeve, and cried loudly.

No one stopped her from crying. This child was so pitiful.

Although he is 12 years old, he is still thin and small, and looks like a child of seven or eight years old.

Everyone in the village was thinking, I hope she won’t be like her elder sister, otherwise the old village chief and his wife would be heartbroken.

That morning, the old village chief and Aunt Huaihua did not leave the hut. They were probably lying on the straw mats, feeling very sad.

As usual, others went up the mountain to pick wild vegetables, or to hunt.

Li Lanzhen followed Wu, took Xue Nizi, and Wu Yuemei into the forest.

There are many kinds of vegetation here. Li Lanzhen was very happy. She saw plants with roots as usual. She threw those she had never seen before or had seen before into the space. There were also many saplings, some of which she recognized and some she didn't, and she threw them all into the space. This time, she thought that she couldn't put them all in the mall to exchange for supplies.

You should leave some and see. If you live in a place with a large yard, you can plant some.

She saw many dandelions on this sunny slope. The small golden flowers swayed among the green, which made people happy.

Li Lanzhen picked a few flowers and tied them to her granddaughter Miaomiao's two little fingers.

He kissed her dark, thin face and said, "Trojan, oh, grandma's little granddaughter is so beautiful!"

Miaomiao giggled and stuck the yellow dandelions in her hand into Li Lanzhen's low bun.

My hair was originally very long and thick, but the hair quality was not good. The ends of my hair were split and yellow. I always wanted to trim it, but I didn't have the time and the intention to do so.

So she tied her hair into a low bun which was easier to tie up. As a result, many women in Hanjia Village saw that her low bun was easier to tie up, so they followed her example and just found a smooth wooden stick to tie it up.

Li Lianzhen dug up all the bitter herbs in this patch. Some of them had their roots attached, while others did not.

Then she discovered a patch of honeysuckle.

This is a good thing. Although it rained for a few days and mountain torrents broke out, the drought situation on the official roads and plains was not alleviated much. There is still water shortage and drought.

Therefore, when cooking vegetable soup, adding some honeysuckle into it can help reduce body temperature and relieve heatstroke for both adults and children.

But after running for more than a day, Li Lanzhen didn't find any chestnut trees, hazelnuts, or other edible things in the forest, so she found it very strange.

The children found many black and red small gourds that they usually eat.

The men also had a good harvest these days, including pheasants, rabbits, and a kind of mountain mouse, which grew very fat.

As for the boys, they always puffed out their chests and said they were going hunting and had caught a lot of tits. Maybe because the grass and water here were abundant, the tits were still very fat.

In addition to digging wild vegetables, women also have to wash, chop and hang them up when they get home. If there are elderly people in the family, these tasks are done by the elderly.

Li Lanzhen exchanged four palm-sized wild vegetable cakes for two large winnowing baskets to dry the wild vegetables.

While cooking, everyone started making wild vegetable pancakes on the remaining fire.

Some families mix more rye flour into their food, while more families mix wild vegetables with more black flour.

The dry food is not big, only slightly bigger than an adult's palm.

After it is done, put it in a winnowing basket to cool, and then put it in a cloth bag.

In this way, they rested in the mountains for a day and went down the mountain before dawn the next morning.

Everybody was reluctant to leave, so the women grabbed their children, scrubbed them thoroughly, and washed themselves clean. In the evening, the men also jumped into the pond and took a good bath to wash away their fatigue.
