A peasant girl with a special ability uses herself and two wolves to escape famine!

She hadn't lost her memory, so she naturally knew what she had done to Xia Ning back then. She hadn't realized it before, but now that she thought about it, her family was truly despicable. Including herself. That's why they suffered retribution; one by one, they saw hope and then led their families to their doom.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but shudder. What about her? Would she also suffer retribution? Would Xia Ning seek revenge?

No, she can't die! Touching her swollen belly, she thought, her child can't be a motherless child.

"Xiao Ning."

Xia Ning carefully observed her cousin, who seemed to have become more peaceful and less arrogant. It seemed that life had smoothed out her rough edges.

"How is my cousin doing?"

"It's great." She meant it sincerely. She really felt incredibly lucky; during the natural disaster, they had taken refuge here and had hardly ever gone hungry.

Compared to those who fled to escape famine, they were much better off.

Xia Fuxi took the initiative to bring Xia Ning to the small valley where she lived. Looking at the man beside her, she felt a little scared. Her intuition told her that this man was not someone to be trifled with.

“I’ve been living here for the past few years, with Liu Dazhuang.”

Where are your parents? Where are your grandparents?

Xia Fuxi felt a little sad and upset. She was also helpless because her family members were so unlucky, dying one by one and requiring her to bury them one by one.

"They're all gone." My mother was sold; she probably won't survive either. Who would treat the person who bought her well, especially in these times?

Xia Ning was surprised, "They're all dead?" No way, they're all there? This place is fine, how could they all be dead? So, the Xia family only has Xia Fuxi left, just like her family.

No, no, Xia Lao Er's entire family is dead, she's an imposter too.

"Yes, they're all dead," Xia Fuxi murmured. "My mother was sold by them during the cold snap. They originally wanted to sell me, but I ran away and went to Liu Dazhuang's house. I guess she's probably gone too, right?"

Yaozu died in the courtyard of his home during the drought; Fugui died on the way here; his second brother's father and grandmother died from overeating after arriving; and his grandfather, upon arriving and seeing the stream, probably died of excessive joy.

Xia Ning couldn't help but twitch her lips. This whole family was a bunch of oddballs while they were alive, and even their deaths were so absurd. So, the skeleton she saw in the Xia family was Xia Yaozu, the old man's eyeballs and heart's knot.

I wonder how heartbroken the old man will be if we meet again in the afterlife.

"Look at me, I've been talking for so long, you must be hungry, I'll go cook." He glanced at Xia Ning, who was fair-skinned and beautiful, and dressed in clean and tidy clothes. The person next to her was the same; it was clear that neither of them had ever suffered.

She fiddled with the hem of her clothes and said with difficulty, "We don't have anything particularly good here. The most common meat dish is fish. It comes from the water, from the sea, and also wild vegetables. We don't have any grains, so please don't look down on us."

Xia Ning also saw the fish hanging in the valley, which didn't look like they came from the stream. "How come you have sea fish? Where did they come from?"

It's over!

Jiang Yi's eyelids twitched violently. What he feared most had come to pass. If Xiao Ning knew that he had led the wrong way and had searched for the sea for most of the Great Xia Dynasty, would she be angry with him?

“We have the sea right here, not far from the village. We go there every now and then to fish and make salt. You don’t know, do you? Seawater is salty. After it’s dried up, the bottom of the pot is salt. We eat salt made from dried seawater.”

No wonder they don't look like they've been lacking salt for a long time and are weak. They're really capable; they can even boil seawater to make salt.

No, there's a sea here?

You said there's a sea here?

"Yes, it's not far from our Xiajia Village. We've never left the village, so we don't know."

Xia Ning was completely distraught, looking at Jiang Yi with a grim expression. So, what was the purpose of their nearly two-year escape from famine to reach Haicheng?

Did you escape in vain?

"Jiang Yi..."

Jiang Yi quickly reassured him, "It's alright, it's alright, let's just treat it as a trip. We have nothing else to do anyway."

Xia Ning felt that she hadn't been comforted at all.

Jiang Yi looked at her somewhat helplessly, then glared angrily at Xia Fuxi. This woman talked too much; it was all her fault for being so talkative that the truth was exposed.

Xia Fuxi looked at them, completely bewildered. What was wrong with them? Should she go cook now, or go cook?

She cautiously asked, "Why don't you sit down for a while? I'll go make some food?"
