"After we entered the city, we went to the clinic first. Qingxue bought two ginsengs for 1,500 taels of silver. The ginsengs were found by Qingxue, so the money should belong to her alone. She also bought some Polygonum multiflorum and wolfberries for 90 taels of silver. I shamelessly gave the 90 taels of silver to all of us. Dad and Mom, do you think this is feasible?"

Uncle Lin looked at the children with a serious face. Although he believed that the children had no such idea, he still had to say it out loud in advance to prevent the children from quarreling over the money in the future.

After hearing Uncle Lin's words, Old Man Lin and Mrs. Lin looked at each other, nodded, and said, "Okay, since Qingxue is willing to use her own money to subsidize this family, we two old people won't say much. We just hope that you will remember Qingxue's contribution to you and this family. You are blood relatives, and I don't want you to be unhappy because of money."

"Grandpa and grandma, don't worry! We won't," after hearing what old man Lin said, Lin Qingming, as the eldest brother, stood up and expressed his opinion. After he finished speaking, Li Yanniang, the eldest sister-in-law, nodded firmly and agreed with her husband's words.

"Grandma, Dad, Mom, Qingxue and Qingyue are our biological sisters. We are all family. Qingxue is willing to use money to support us. We are grateful to her from the bottom of our hearts. How could we fall out with Qingxue over money?"

Lin Qingbai also stood up to express his opinion. What he said was his true thoughts. Their first wife owed the second wife too much, so how could they treat the second wife's younger brothers and sisters like that?

Lin Qingran didn't say anything, but Fang Furong and Liu Jiali also expressed their opinions. The two sisters-in-law said that they would not do that, and would educate the children well in the future, and they would take good care of Lin Qingxue and her daughter.

After hearing what her family members said, Lin Qingxue opened her mouth and was about to say something when she was interrupted by Mrs. Lin again.

"Remember what I said today. Qingxue's money is her own. She has two children to raise. Even if she wants to use the money to subsidize you, your grandfather and I hope that you will not use her money unless it is a matter of life and death."

Mrs. Lin said earnestly that the second wife had sacrificed too much for this family. She knew that the first wife was wronged, but what could she do? This was what the first wife owed the second wife.

"Grandpa and grandma, there's no need to be like this. I'm voluntarily taking out this money to supplement the family income," Lin Qingxue looked at everyone seriously. What she said was true. For her, her family was the most important thing. She could just earn more money if she spent it.

She liked the atmosphere of the Lin family very much. Her grandparents were fair and just, and could even be said to be partial to their brothers and sisters from the second branch, especially her and her sisters.

The eldest uncle and aunt of the eldest wife loved them as if they were their own children. The eldest brother and sister-in-law of the eldest wife also loved them very much, and the nephews also respected them very much.

"That won't do either, Qingxue girl. How much silver do you have left? Your silver must not be mixed with the silver at home."

Mrs. Lin asked worriedly. She was worried that her eldest granddaughter was secretly subsidizing the family. It was a good thing that her eldest granddaughter was pure and kind, but it also depended on the situation.

"Before, I had more than 20 taels of silver left. Today, I sold another 90 taels of silver. I spent almost 80 taels of silver, and I have 39 taels of silver left."

Lin Qingxue had always kept her own money separate from her family's money, so it was easy to calculate.

"Okay, then everyone, please remember that we only have this little thirty-nine taels of silver. Over the next two days, the women in the family should pack up everyone's clothes and blankets and put them in sacks or wooden boxes. The men should pack up the food, leaving four or five hundred kilograms for two people outside. Have Qingxue collect the rest to prevent it from being snatched away by the refugees when we set out on the road."

Mrs. Lin said worriedly that since her eldest granddaughter's treasure was so useful, it must be used. It would be a pity to waste it.

Since Lin Qingxue had told everyone about her space, she naturally didn't think of hiding it, so Lin Qingming and his brothers also told their wives, but they just asked them not to tell the children, for fear that the children were too young to keep their mouths shut and tell others.

It can be said that the wives of Lin Qingming's brothers all have no maternal family, so what they value most is naturally their husbands and children. Knowing that Lin Qingxue's baby can be brought in by people who have a blood relationship with her, what are they afraid of?

If they really encounter danger, Lin Qingxue will just have to take the children and hide inside. As for themselves, as long as the children are alive, they are not afraid even if they die. Sometimes maternal love is so great and selfless.

Therefore, for the sake of their man and child, Li Yanniang and her three sisters-in-law would not tell a word to outsiders. This is also one of the reasons why Mrs. Lin was confident in letting her grandson tell his granddaughter-in-law about the treasure.

"I understand," everyone responded in unison after hearing what Mrs. Lin said.

"Sisters-in-law, can you please take some time these few days to sew these two pieces of oilcloth together so I can put them in my treasure and use them as a cushion on the floor to store food? And uncle, can you make some cabinets or boxes to store things?"

Lin Qingxue turned and looked at Uncle Lin. The things in the space were placed randomly on the ground, which was not convenient at all.

If there were cabinets and boxes, she could sort things out and she wouldn't have to spend a long time looking for things when she needed them.

"Okay, we will make it for you in the next two days," Uncle Lin nodded in agreement. His eldest niece was in a hurry to use it, so naturally he came to her first.

"Okay, it's still early today, eldest brother and his wife, you guys go to the kitchen to prepare lunch. Your father and the others must not have eaten yet, so everyone else go pack up!"

Mrs. Lin looked at the sun outside. It was not long after noon and it was the hottest time of the day. It was not realistic to go out to work. It would be better to tidy up things at home!

I don’t know when I will leave, and there are so many things at home that are still useful. How can I bear to leave them behind? Naturally, I have to pack them up and take them with me.

Seeing that everything was settled, Lin Qingxue and the others got busy. After Lin Qingxue came out of Mrs. Lin's room, she took Lin Xiaoya and Lin Xiaowan back to her room. The three of them still had a lot of luggage to pack.

Lin Qingxue sorted out the items one by one and packed them into a box together with the quilts and clothes that had been sorted earlier, leaving only two sets of summer clothes.

The mother and her two daughters didn't have much luggage to begin with, and most of their clothes were worn out. Fortunately, they bought some cloth this time so they could make a few more sets of clothes for replacement wear.

Therefore, Lin Qingxue planned to ask Li Yanniang and others to make clothes for everyone in the next few days. After fleeing the famine, there would be no time to make clothes.

It is easy to imagine what they would encounter on the road to escape famine: countless refugees and the bodies of refugees everywhere on the roadside.
