A massive famine! The whole family travels through time together, and with their spatial abilities,

Chapter 143 The Gu family decides to relocate and follows the group to Beijing.

Shen Yuehua was surprised by her daughter's exaggerated manner and found it amusing.

"Hehehe, my daughter is so beautiful. She looks like a fairy no matter what expression or movement she makes."

Shen Shuli couldn't help but roll her eyes at her mother.

She was genuinely heartbroken; she absolutely wasn't putting on an act to cheer her up.

"By the way, Mom, did you use the spiritual spring water I gave you yesterday?" Shen Shuli quickly asked.

Shen Yuehua patted her forehead, annoyed, "Oh dear, it was too late yesterday, I completely forgot. I've been busy all day today, and I didn't even think about it. Could it be that all my spiritual energy has dissipated?"

She felt heartbroken and quickly stood up to get the two bottles of water.

Shen Shuli quickly explained, "Mom, the effects of this spiritual spring water have been upgraded, doubling in effectiveness. You can use it again tonight."

Shen Yuehua's eyes lit up upon hearing this, and she stared in shock at the water bottle in her hand, "It actually upgraded?"

The effects of the spiritual spring water were already incredible for her, but she never expected the effects to be upgraded again!

"Great! Then we should be even more careful with our spending from now on!"

"Hehehe, Mom, this is six liters of water a day, enough for the three of us. Don't be stingy, drink as much as you want, your daughter will make sure you have enough!" Shen Shuli patted her chest confidently and promised.

"Silly girl, you're so naive!" Shen Yuehua felt a warm glow in her heart as she listened to her daughter's words.

Shen Shuli looked at her mother and smiled happily.

"Mom, have you practiced the Fire Cloud Technique? How does it feel?" Shen Shuli asked.

"I tried a few times this morning but didn't feel anything. I've been busy all day and haven't had time to practice," Shen Yuehua explained.

Shen Shuli thought that her mother's body had also been tempered by the spiritual spring water and that she would be able to quickly master the skills, but she did not expect that she would not succeed.

"Okay, Mom, I'll set aside a little time to practice every day from now on. Once I master it, my skills will improve a lot."

"Yes, Mom knows."

"Alright, I'll go outside and see if the south gate is open. We can't stay in the city for too long."

"Okay, please be careful."

Just as she left the manor gate, Shen Shuli encountered Su Yunhai and his son Gu Changfeng walking hand in hand.

Shen Shuli quickly walked a few steps forward to greet them.

"Father, Uncle Gu."

The two smiled and nodded to Shen Shuli.

"Yes, daughter, I just happened to need to talk to you about something," Su Yunhai said.

"okay."

The four did not enter the village, but moved to an open space nearby and stood there.

“Daughter, your Uncle Gu just said that the Gu family is going to the capital with us, there are about 700 people in total.”

Upon hearing this, Shen Shuli unconsciously raised her eyebrows.

I never expected the Gu family to be so decisive, making such a significant decision in just one night.

She looked at Gu Changfeng and Gu Canghong in surprise, guessing that the father and son must have said something to the Gu family to persuade them.

In the original plot.

The Gu family was persuaded by the female lead, Lin Wanwan, to go south to the capital with the Lin family.

Unexpectedly, this time, without Lin Wanwan, and without her doing anything, the Gu family took the initiative to decide to follow her.

It is clear that the Gu family has a thorough understanding of the current situation in the entire Northern Territory.

Gu Changfeng looked at Shen Shuli with a gentle smile and explained.

“Niece, we have to thank you for rescuing our family of five and for making us see the current situation clearly.”

"Otherwise, if we delay for a few more days, our Gu family may not be able to avoid this predicament."

“That would be wonderful!” Shen Shuli said with a smile. “Your Gu family is a prestigious clan. If you accompany us along the way, our refugee group can receive some protection from the Gu family.”

"Ha ha ha ha."

Gu Changfeng laughed heartily upon hearing this.

“Niece, there’s no need to be so modest. Your team is no less capable than the Gu family. We will help each other along the way and we will definitely arrive in the capital safely.”

Gu Canghong looked at the two of them, a smile unconsciously appearing on his face.

He hadn't forgotten how this girl had confidently told him that she had taken a liking to him.

The more he learned about her along the way, the more complicated his feelings became.

He had assumed that her team would settle down once they arrived in Qinzhou.

But Uncle Su had been buying up supplies in the city yesterday, so he knew the convoy wouldn't stop.

He already considered the Su family as his own, and since he couldn't interfere with their decisions...

He decided to persuade the Gu family to go with the Su family.

That way, it wouldn't be considered a breach of the promise I made.

Shen Shuli was unaware of Gu Canghong's thoughts and was in a very good mood at the moment.

Just as she was about to ask something, Gu Canghong, who had been silent until now, spoke up.

“Miss Su, our family is already packing up our belongings, and we estimate it will take another two days to process some assets.”

"Furthermore, we have already found out that the water level of the Qinhe River has dropped significantly, making it impossible for large ships to navigate; we can only choose medium-sized or small ships."

"We have already contacted a fleet of ships that will arrive tomorrow. You can load the supplies onto the ships then."

Shen Shuli was just about to inquire about this matter when she was surprised to find that the Gu family was so efficient that they had already arranged the fleet.

What a great colleague!

However, it would take two more days for Gu Jia to get everything sorted out, and Shen Shuli felt that the time was a bit long, so she felt a little uneasy.

"Can't you handle this in one day? I think two days is too long," Shen Shuli said to Gu Canghong and his son.

According to Shen Shuli's plan, if possible, she intends to leave Qinzhou City first thing tomorrow morning.

Gu Canghong and his son Gu Changfeng exchanged a glance, their faces showing worry, their brows furrowing involuntarily.

"Why are you in such a hurry? Our Gu family has many businesses in Qinzhou. One day is too short to handle them all."

Shen Shuli only knew that giving Gu Jia only one day was too much of a burden.

She suggested, "Why don't you arrange for your family members and non-servants to leave the city first?"

"Send more people to handle the trivial matters within the manor. We'll meet outside the city after everything is finished."

Gu Changfeng and Gu Canghong could clearly sense Shen Shuli's hidden urgency, and their originally relaxed hearts unconsciously tensed up.

“In that case, let’s go back and take care of our family matters first. I’ll send someone to escort you out of the city early tomorrow morning,” Gu Changfeng said.

Shen Shuli glanced at Su Yunhai, who immediately understood his daughter's meaning and nodded in agreement.

"Alright, it's settled then. We'll wait outside the city first. You guys try to be quick."

They watched the Gu family father and son leave.

Su Yunhai looked at Shen Shuli and asked, "Daughter, aren't you being a little too hasty? The Gu family has a lot of assets, and I don't think we can handle it in two days."

"There's no time, Dad. Can you calculate how many days it's been since we started fleeing the famine?"

“According to the plot of the novel, the Northern Barbarian army must have already attacked. If we wait two more days, I am worried that things may change in Qinzhou.”

If anything changes, it will definitely not be a simple disaster caused by the local army oppressing the people.

Once the Northern Barbarian army attacks, the enemy will absolutely slaughter the city indiscriminately!

With so many supplies in their group, they certainly wouldn't be able to leave the city smoothly.

She would feel more at ease if she left the city sooner.

Su Yunhai became somewhat anxious after his daughter's words.
