Because the imperial court explicitly stipulated that the migration must reach the destination within the designated time to be considered legal, and overstaying the deadline would be defined as an illegal act and would be severely punished; in addition, detouring would not only significantly extend the journey but also consume a huge amount of supplies, which was an expense that ordinary people could not afford.

After repeated weighing and consideration, everyone agreed that they should wait for a few days until everyone had rested before making a unified deployment.

That evening, the sky was overcast and a drizzle began to fall.

The refugees had to dig some simple holes in the ground to settle down temporarily and spend the night.

But these so-called safe havens are extremely harsh - they are filled with mud and debris and are extremely humid. Every time you enter or exit, you will become covered in mud, which is simply unbearable!

Fortunately, the weather is stable in this season. The next morning, the sun was shining brightly, the sky was clear, and everything came back to life.

Hundreds more residents heading to the new territory soon joined the group. Upon hearing the threat posed on the road, they all expressed hesitation, fearing they would find themselves in trouble again.

After two days of this stagnation, the food and water reserves were gradually exhausted.

As a result, the usually energetic aunt's face was covered with wrinkles and she looked haggard.

At the same time, everyone's figures began to become noticeably thinner and their skin color became darker and duller.

But for Jiang Jing, who has a special physique, there is no negative impact. On the contrary, she unexpectedly gained a slimmer figure.

However, every time she tried to take advantage of this and sneak out to replenish the stock, she would be closely monitored and followed by Zhang Xiuqin, so she had to completely give up the idea of ​​using her private warehouse to support everyone.

In the blink of an eye, it was the last moment before departure. The village leader finally mustered up the courage to lead everyone forward to challenge the difficulties.

In order to ensure an adequate supply of items needed for the journey, Song Dadi, one of the parents, decided to take the children to the market to purchase necessities!

At first, Jiang Jing had thought about going along to buy clothes and dress herself up, but unfortunately, considering the long journey too tiring, she gave up the idea...

Early in the morning, the father and his two sons packed up and headed to the market.

They didn't return until night fell.

That night, just as Jiang Jinhe was getting ready to go to bed, Song Wenqin suddenly and silently threw a package to her.

The moonlight shines through the window lattice and into the simple room, adding a touch of quiet beauty to this ordinary scene.

At first she thought the other party was worried that the two of them would come into contact with each other while staying overnight, so they placed it between them as a buffer and even specially shaped it into a long strip to increase the distance between them.

The pattern and texture on the package's surface made her mistakenly believe that it contained straw or a ball of cloth, and she couldn't help but feel a little warm in her heart - even in such a small matter, he was considering it.

Unexpectedly, Song Wenqin looked at her in surprise: "Why don't you go and take a look?"

The light in his eyes seemed to be asking her why she hadn't opened it yet.

Jiang Jing was confused, but she subconsciously opened the package and saw that it was a piece of clothing. It was obviously carefully selected and the size was just right for her.

The soft blue shirt was embroidered with intricate patterns, which looked exceptionally delicate under the dim light, as if every stitch carried an unspoken emotion. This made Jiang Jing a little embarrassed, her cheeks flushed, and her heart pounded. She didn't expect Song Wenqin to give her clothes.

Is it true that the world has turned upside down?

Since waking up from that dream, many long-buried memories have gradually surfaced.

Song Wenqin had never been so gentle in the past, especially on their first wedding night, when he even pushed her aside. After that, whenever she tried to get closer to him, it always ended in embarrassment.

For a whole month, they were almost strangers and had very few conversations with each other.

Now, what does this unexpected gift mean?

Although her figure has changed slightly, her appearance is still not outstanding. In theory, Song Wenqin should not have any special feelings for her.

Oh, right... Yesterday at dinner, the considerate Aunt Song had reminded her, "Girl, you have to eat more, otherwise you'll be too skinny to wear anything."

I think the old man must have asked Song Wenqin to bring back suitable clothes for her. This explanation makes much more sense.

After some self-comfort, she whispered "thank you" and then fell asleep with this warmth.

On the other side, Song Wenqin, who was lying on the bed, was stunned for a moment. An indescribable feeling surged in his heart, and he always felt that something was wrong.

When I realized that I had actually started to care about the other person's daily life, I suddenly realized that a change had actually taken place deep in my heart.

That night, Jiang Jinhe did not turn over all night because she was holding the package tightly in her arms. She only opened her eyes in a daze at dawn.

I no longer have the restless tossing and turning that I used to have, and my sleep quality has improved a lot.

But for Song Wenqin, who was used to getting up and walking around in the middle of the night, it seemed particularly uncomfortable, as if there was a lack of some familiar movements in his ears.

The next morning, just as the sky was turning pale, everyone seemed to have gotten up early, packed their equipment, and prepared to set off as if by tacit agreement.

Jiang Jinhe found a relatively secluded clearing in the woods and entered his own "alternative dimension".

Thinking about the steep and rugged mountain journey I will soon face, putting on this well-fitting new piece of clothing will undoubtedly make it easier to move around.

After putting on the clothes chosen by Song Wenqin and looking around in the mirror, she found that her figure had returned to her ideal state of 149 pounds. No wonder even the old lady, who had always been frugal, would specifically ask her son to buy new clothes for her.

If you can keep it up, maybe soon you will hear others call you a beautiful lady!

Immersed in her imagination, Jiang Jing unconsciously curled up the corners of her mouth into a sweet smile, and the long-lost confidence gradually returned to her heart.

Coming back to reality and seeing everyone busy making final preparations, she quickly walked towards the camp.

On the way, he happened to meet Song Wenqin who seemed to be anxiously looking for something.

"you……"

When the man saw her, he first stood there in a daze, then pursed his lips and remained silent.

Jiang Jinhe did not feel concerned or disappointed at all because she was aware of the distant relationship between her and the other party and did not expect much response.

When the two arrived at the assembly point side by side, they each carried their heavy bags and embarked on a new journey.

The number of people traveling with the team has increased a lot compared to the past. In addition to the more than 200 people who originally joined the team, the number of new members has reached 300 to 400. The total number of people, nearly 700, is marching towards Tongshan in a mighty manner.

At this time, Aunt Zhang next to her suddenly smiled and said, "Oh my, look at our little girl, she is becoming more and more beautiful!"
