My reborn husband and son are thinking about how to kill me every day.

After the rabbit meat had been stewing for a while, Ji Yunshuang added the washed yam and stewed it together.

The rabbit meat from the two rabbits already took up more than half of the cauldron, and now with the yam added, it suddenly filled the entire cauldron.

The cauldron in the Lu family was brought back from outside when Lu Yinheng's father was still alive.

It's a bit larger than a typical cauldron, and this large cauldron is more than enough for a family to eat.

As before, Ji Yunshuang distributed a bowl to each of the families with injured members.

These families had all fought against bandits together, and their character was relatively decent.

She felt that she could curry favor with these people by giving them a little something.

They might be able to help in a critical moment.

But the Lu Bingchun family, who already had conflicts with them and were selfish, were already doing them a favor by not stabbing them in the back. How could they be expected to help them?

She doesn't waste anything.

Liu cursed for so long, but in the end she got nothing, and she almost died of anger.

She wanted to come over and cause trouble, but when she saw Lu Yinheng's tall stature, she instantly deflated.

Back in the cave, they dared to cause trouble for Ji Yunshuang because they thought that with Lu Yinheng injured and the fiercest wolf cub fallen, she could bully their family again.

But now, looking at Lu Yinheng, he doesn't seem weak at all.

She could only vent her resentment by scolding her own family.

Ji Yunshuang didn't care what Liu thought. After delivering rabbit meat to several families, she couldn't wait to call the two children to eat.

The Lu family members had all been awakened by the aroma of rabbit meat.

The Lu brothers also took it upon themselves to do other miscellaneous tasks.

Some people went to skin the two rabbits, while others went to fetch water for the kettle, cut bamboo to make new chopsticks, and so on.

Gu Chunzhi took care of the two children, helping them wash their faces and brush their teeth.

Farmers generally don't pay that much attention to such things.

Although the original owner suffered abuse from her stepmother at home, after marrying Lu Yinheng, she often acted like a city person, complaining that the Lu family was unhygienic and making many demands on the two children.

A few days ago, because we were hiding from bandits and the child was sick, the family couldn't take care of these things.

Now that things have calmed down, I'm trying my best to pay attention to these details so that Ji Yunshuang will be satisfied.

Ji Yunshuang was indeed satisfied.

If she's busy cooking, everyone else in the family just sits there like old men, waiting to be served.

She definitely wouldn't do that.

The main reason she has decided to stay is because of her children.

Furthermore, although this is not the end of the world, it is a chaotic world that she knows nothing about. Being with these people will help her learn more about this dynasty.

It's not that I have any feelings for these people.

But her brothers-in-law were all sensible, and her mother-in-law didn't cause trouble, so she thought it was pretty good.

She was particularly pleased that the whole family was hygienic.

After the family enjoyed a delicious meal around the cauldron, Lu Yinheng said, "You all rest a little longer, I'll go scout ahead."

He naturally knew what the next step should be.

However, he did not want to reveal his rebirth, so he still had to pretend to be reborn in some ways.

Lu Wuzheng stood up and said, "Brother, I'll go with you."

“No need, you stay here to take care of the family,” Lu Yinheng said. “This place looks like it’s deep in the mountains, so be careful in case there are wild beasts.”

The Zhou family rested next to the Lu family last night. The two families are so close that they could hear everything being said on the other side.

Zhou Dalin swallowed the dry rations in his mouth in a few quick bites and said, "I'll go with Brother Lu!"

Lu Yinheng glanced at Ji Yunshuang and did not refuse again.

Ji Yunshuang was a little confused.

If you're going to scout ahead, then go scout ahead. Why are you looking at her?

Ignoring his thoughts, Ji Yunshuang ate and then took a nap with her daughter.

After dinner, the child slept soundly.

She smelled the scent of grass and thought that the plants in this world were normal and would not mutate, which made her feel at ease, and she soon fell asleep.

After taking another nap, Lu Yinheng and Zhou Dalin had already returned.

It is said that the two went to explore from two different directions. In the end, Lu Yinheng found out the approximate location of their place and, based on a local chronicle he had read, deduced the route to Jiangzhou.

"We've actually turned misfortune into blessing. I've roughly estimated that getting from where we are now to Jiangzhou will save us at least half the journey."

Lu Yinheng's words left everyone wide-eyed and speechless for a long time.

After a long pause, Village Chief Mu finally said, "Brother, is this really true? Doesn't this mean we'll be able to reach Jiangzhou in just a few days?"

Lu Yinheng didn't make any definitive statements. "If the rest of the trip goes smoothly, we should be able to reach Jiangzhou by the end of the month. But it depends on how smooth the journey becomes."

"Whether things go smoothly or not, this is a great thing."

"That's right, I was worried that the journey would take too long and we'd have to spend the winter on the road. Now that's all right, I don't have to worry about that anymore."

……

Hearing that they would arrive in Jiangzhou in just a few days, everyone was excited and discussed whether to set off immediately and arrive in Jiangzhou as soon as possible.

After pondering for a moment, Lu Yinheng said, "My family's provisions are almost gone, so we might need to prepare some more before we set off. Do any of you need to prepare some more?"

Once you leave this forest, you'll reach the main road.

Once they reached the main road, with more people around, it would be inconvenient to start a fire.

And although they took a shortcut and traveled half the distance of the average refugee, some people actually received the news earlier and set off even earlier.

When they descended the mountain and joined the main road, they must have encountered a large number of refugees.

And then there are those robbers who take advantage of the national crisis to make a fortune...

The road ahead is short, but equally fraught with danger.

After Lu Yinheng mentioned it, everyone realized what was going on and said they would prepare some more food.

After being out for so many days, we had almost run out of dry rations, and we had also lost a lot of our food due to the robbery.

Nowadays, in the mountains, as long as you put in a little more effort, you can always find food.

Because of concerns about wild animals, the group decided to continue their previous practice of going out in groups to search for wild produce in the vicinity.

The village chief's wife, Niu Dahua, hesitated for a moment before walking up to Ji Yunshuang.

She kept clenching her hands and stammered, "Big Brother's wife, could you teach this old woman to identify the wild yam you found earlier? All our grain has been stolen by bandits, and no one in our family knows how to hunt..."

She had two sons and a daughter, but her daughter had already married far away.

Both sons originally wanted to pursue the imperial examination path.

However, the eldest son, Mu Zhicai, failed the imperial examinations for many years. Later, whether due to depression or something else, he fell ill and died.

He left behind a group of children when he died.

The second son, Mu Zhigang, was pragmatic. After failing the exam twice, he went to the city and found a job as an accountant.

Mu Zhigang had little experience with farm work since childhood, was physically weak, and was even injured while fighting off robbers.

The family's food supplies had long since run out.

Seeing her injured son and several young grandchildren, Niu Dahua had no choice but to swallow her pride and beg Ji Yunshuang for help.

However, although Ji Yunshuang had sent food to her family several times, she spoke more and more softly, thinking about her past behavior in the village.

Liu, who had been keeping an eye on Ji Yunshuang's movements, overheard her words and immediately curled her lip, mocking, "Niu Dahua, you actually want to go to that stingy old man who doesn't respect his elders to get food? I think you're dreaming."

Niu Dahua regretted her impulsive decision to approach Ji Yunshuang, feeling that Ji Yunshuang would never agree to her request.

She couldn't bear to hear what Liu said.

"Dalang's wife isn't a miser. How many nice things has she sent to families with wounded soldiers these past few days? Are you blind?"

Niu Dahua spat and cursed, "Besides, we're all from the same village, we know each other inside and out. Who doesn't know how you treated their family before? How dare you act like an elder in front of them? Don't you have any shame?"

Liu's face nearly contorted with rage. "You think you can get food by licking her asshole? Dream on! Everyone knows she—"

"Excuse me, I agree." Before she could finish speaking, Ji Yunshuang interrupted her.

Ji Yunshuang looked at Niu Dahua with a smile and said, "Auntie, did you bring your tools for going into the mountains? Let's go!"

Liu almost couldn't catch her breath and fainted from anger.

This little bitch is deliberately going against her, isn't she?
