The daily life of Yu Baibai's family after traveling through time

Chapter 31: A Journey of Mountains and Rivers

Early the next morning

It was just dawn

Every household began to make some noise, but...

"Son! I'm old and can't walk anymore, so I won't go any further. The remaining rations will allow you to walk for a few more days..."

"I won't leave! This is my root! My parents are buried here. If you ask me to leave them, I think you want to be beaten!"

"Follow the headman! I'll stay here with your father and guard the village. When this is over, you can still come back, right?"

This is what happens to many families with elderly people.

Mr. Yu’s eldest brother lived next door to him and was also making a lot of noise and refusing to leave.

Old Master Yu slammed the table vigorously and shouted at the top of his lungs:

"Yu Guangzong! If you dare to leave me in this shabby village, I won't let you go even if I become a ghost! I haven't lived a good life yet! I have to follow you to live a good life!"

"Even if I die, I'd rather die on the road!" Old Master Yu said as he got more and more angry.

Yu Guangzong didn't sleep well all night. He was the first one to get up in the family. He took out all the eggs from the chicken coop and slaughtered the chickens.

All the eggs are boiled and ready to eat on the way.

At this time, he was fishing out eggs, and suddenly he heard his father's shout and almost dropped the eggs.

Thinking that his parents had started a fight, he hurried out:

"Oh my dear father! How could I leave you here? What's so good about this shabby place? Come with your son to live a good life somewhere else! Wherever our family is, that's home!"

After hearing the conversation between the father and son, the noise over there stopped.

Just when some families were worried and crying, the door of the Yu family opened.

Three high-pitched cars came out one after another.

Yu Yaozu drove the mule cart to the middle of the road and saw his father, who was beating his eldest brother with his butt sticking out. He shouted:

"Dad! Uncle Village Chief! Let's go!"

"Hey! Let's go!"

The headman's family had already packed up. With just a glance, Yu Fei tactfully set up the ox cart and headed towards the village entrance.

Everyone got angry when they saw this. What is he still talking about when the person has left?

No matter what filial piety is, those who have the conditions will just carry the "troublemaking" old man onto the car. Those who don't have the conditions will tie the old man with a rope around their waist and force him to leave even if he doesn't want to!

My own parents!

How can we let them die here?

Immediately afterwards, as if they had been trained, every household in Yujia Village opened their doors, those who had carts pushed their carts, and those who didn't carried their loads.

The road to escape famine was treacherous, and the people of Yujia Village also embarked on this road of no return...

Of course, there are also some brave ones who are so familiar with this place that if there is nothing wrong, they will just run up the mountain.

If there is one person who thinks this way, there will be a second and a third...

At this time, the crops in the fields are not ripe yet and there is nothing to harvest.

A large number of people stayed because they were reluctant to give up the crops grown on the land.

Of the village's original population of two or three hundred, less than half have decided to leave, and that includes the elderly and children.

The family that walked the most completely was the Yu family.

Yu Baibai's grandfather had two older brothers, and they all followed him, as well as the old lady Zhang Dahua's family next door to Baibai's house, and so on.

Those who had not left Yujia Village stood at the entrance of the village and watched those who were preparing to leave with their families.

Leaving the tribe is to survive.

Staying in the clan land is to protect the family...

"Clan leader! Village head!"

"Be careful on the road! Remember to come back and see us when things are over!"

The village head heard it and didn't even dare to look back.

Leading the way was Yu Yaozu's mule cart, followed closely by two ox carts driven by Qiao Qingfeng and his son.

Next was the village head's family. His sons, Yu Fei and Yu Xin, had not yet married. There was only the village head's wife at home, and no other children or women. It was very easy for them to escape famine at that time.

Even if there is only one ox cart, it will be easier for the three of them to take turns.

Following closely behind was Grandpa Yu, with Boss Yu and Boss Yu II and their families.

Because there was only one ox cart and one mule cart, and they were full of things, there was little room to sit.

Old Man Yu was driving an ox cart, and Second Brother Yu was driving a mule cart with Old Lady Yu sitting on it.

The rest of the people could only walk on foot carrying a small bag.

The only family that had a car later was Mr. Yu’s eldest brother, Yu Chunhai’s family. Even if they had a car, only Yu Chunhai was sitting in it.

Then came the people pushing carts and carrying loads...

The last ones to hold the fort were Yu Batian's family, the only butcher in the area. All the members of his family were big and strong.

In this day and age, being able to eat to this level of physique means one has a wealthy family.

With such a big commotion in Yujia Village, it is certainly impossible to take the main road.

They were walking on a small path that required climbing over a mountain, which was the mountain behind the Yu family's old house.

The mountain road was difficult to walk on, and Yu Yaozu was so tired that he almost couldn't breathe after stopping and starting many times.

But I still gritted my teeth and persevered until noon, when the sun rose directly overhead.

People on the mountain cannot see it, after all, the trees are very tall and block it completely.

Only occasionally can you see the scorching sun through the gaps between the leaves.

"Stop! Rest here!"

After Yu Yaozu finished shouting at the top of his lungs, he sat down on the ground and didn't want to move at all.

Yu Yaozu spent the whole morning clearing the way and cutting branches.

I have to discuss this with the head of the village after dinner. I can’t be the only one to be blamed for this!

Qiaomu was feeding the mule and felt very distressed.

Yu Baibai had already jumped out of the car and squatted under the roots of the trees, not knowing what to do. Qiao Mu saw that she didn't run far, so he ignored her and continued to do his work.

The people who stopped had been walking for the whole morning and were extremely tired, but they still forced themselves to take their baskets and go dig wild vegetables. There was no other way as no one had enough food.

Yu Yaozu had rested enough, picked up Yu Baibai and walked towards the village head.

The village head was eating dry biscuits with water. When he saw Yu Yaozu coming, he moved aside and motioned Yu Yaozu to sit over.

"Yaozu! What's wrong?"

Yu Yaozu: You old thing, you just gave up and left me alone. You've made me tired like a grandson.

I thought so in my heart, but I didn't show it on my face. I sat down with a smile:

"Uncle Village Head, look at us marching like this, without any organization or discipline. If we run into a big insect or something, I'm afraid we'll just fall apart. Even if we're fine in the mountains, if we leave the mountains, someone has to be on guard at night, right?"

Before Yu Yaozu finished speaking, the village head raised his hand to interrupt:

"Yaozu! We'll do whatever you say. Give us some advice!"

This big beast is no joke. He didn't feel scared at first, but when it was suddenly lifted up, he felt like there were eyes staring at them everywhere. It was scary!

"This is actually very simple. While everyone is cooking, call all the able-bodied men over, divide them into groups, and take turns on duty..."
