Armed with a machete and a gun, armed with a system, they fled the famine.

Aside from white rice, white flour, and pork lard, the rest were indeed bought by her at the grain shop in town; she wasn't worried that Sister Tian would notice anything.

Tian Xiu'e felt a little relieved, but waved her hand at Zhao Yan.

"Yan'er, I can't take these things. You take them back and eat them with Xiaomi."

As she spoke, she began to put the things on the table into her basket.

How could Zhao Yan allow her to do that?

"Sister Tian, ​​don't be busy, I have something to discuss with you."

Tian Xiu'e paused.

"What's the matter? Tell me."

Zhao Yan glanced down at her daughter and carefully said, "Sister Tian, ​​I'd like to go up the mountain to find more food these next few days. Could you please look after Xiaomi for me? Don't worry, I've already given Yang Zhangshi and Yang Erlang a beating, so I don't think they'll dare to touch Xiaomi again."

She had thought it through. She had come to this strange world, but she knew nothing and only had strength.

Rather than waiting to starve to death, it's better to go to the mountains and find something to survive.

It's fine for her to go into the mountains alone, but it would be quite inconvenient if she took Xiaomi with her.

Tian Xiu'e wondered what it was about, but it turned out to be this, and she scolded him playfully.

"Just hand over the millet to me, why are you being so polite? But Yan'er, I really can't accept these things you bought. It wasn't a difficult thing to do, it's not worth it for you to do this."

As long as that old hag Yang Zhangshi doesn't dare to have any bad intentions, Xiao Mi will definitely be well taken care of by her.

As she spoke, she put the things back into the basket.

Zhao Yan quickly stopped her.

"Sister Tian, ​​there's something else I need to trouble you with. You know, I beat up Yang Zhangshi, and she's definitely holding a grudge. When Xiaomi and I go back to that house, we'll just have a place to sleep; we won't have to worry about food."

So, can Xiaomi and I join you for meals from now on? Don't worry about food; with me here, we'll make sure everyone has enough to eat.

If she could, she would like to take Xiaomi away from the Yang family right now.

But she tested her today, and Yang Zhangshi wouldn't release her unless she skinned her alive.

Moreover, she didn't have much silver on hand, only the 140-odd taels of silver she got from selling wild ginseng.

Thinking that after leaving the Yang family, he would need to buy land and build a house, and if he had the means, he would buy two acres of land to grow crops.

These all cost money.

That hundred-odd taels of silver probably wouldn't be enough for her to work on for two days.

We still need to find a way to make money.

Only a lot of money can make her feel at ease.

Tian Xiu'e was not one to hesitate, and seeing Zhao Yan's insistence, she nodded.

"It's nothing, you're welcome here anytime."

If it weren't for the fact that there was only one room for sleeping in the house, she would have invited the mother and daughter to come and stay with her.

"Thank you, Sister Tian."

The matter was settled, and everyone was happy.

Chen Qingjiao was overjoyed to learn that Yang Xiaomi had been eating at home recently.

Don't be fooled by the fact that one is twelve years old and the other is only four.

The two little girls together look just like best friends, and they have endless things to talk about every day.

Zhao Yan helped Tian Xiue put her things in the kitchen, and then had dinner with her daughter at Tian Xiue's house before returning to the Yang family home with her daughter.

When they returned, Yang Laoda's wife, Chen Lan, was busy cooking wild vegetable porridge in the kitchen. When she saw the mother and daughter return, she looked up and smiled kindly at them, without saying anything else.

Zhao Yan didn't mind and carried her daughter into the woodshed across the street.

When she could finally lie down comfortably to sleep, smelling the pungent, irritating bedding, Zhao Yan secretly vowed that tomorrow, she would definitely buy a new bedding.

**

After Zhao Yan deliberately shirked her responsibilities and stopped working, most of the work in the Yang family fell to Yang Dalang and his wife.

Early in the morning, Yang Dalang fetched water for his family of ten and stored it in a water vat outside the kitchen window.

When Zhao Yan and her daughter went out, they saw Chen Lan scooping water from the vat with a ladle.

Zhao Yan paused slightly in her peach blossom eyes, then turned and went back to the woodshed, holding her daughter's little hand.

When she came out again, she had a large gourd filled with water in her hand.

She just bought this big gourd from the system for 100 yuan.

The purpose was to get her and her daughter to drink the water they hadn't had for the past two days.

Although Madam Yang threatened not to give Zhao Yan and her daughter any food or drink, Zhao Yan was no longer afraid of her.

If Yang Zhangshi dared to curse or swear in front of her, she would still beat her up.

Chen Lan had returned to the kitchen and was preparing to start a fire to cook.

Zhao Yan took the gourd, removed the stopper, and used a ladle to scoop water, filling the gourd little by little.

Even if Chen Lan saw it, she didn't intend to say anything to stop her.

Of course, she would never complain to her mother-in-law.

This water was originally meant for Zhao Yan and her daughter.

"Xiaomi, let's go."

After filling the water tank, Zhao Yan took her daughter's hand and went out the door.

[Ding! One hundred more servings of Jinjia Special Grade Powder have been added! Each serving weighs fifty kilograms!]

[Ding! One hundred more servings of pork fat have been added! Each serving weighs five kilograms!]

Before she even reached Tian Xiue's doorstep, a system notification sounded in Zhao Yan's ear.

Zhao Yan's face remained unchanged, but inwardly she couldn't help but want to let out a groundhog scream.

Ahhh! ! !

The bag of flour I delivered to Sister Tian yesterday was scooped out by her from a 50-kilogram flour sack.

Unexpectedly, after Sister Tian used that bag of white flour today, a hundred more bags of the same premium grade flour appeared in her space.

And they're all fifty kilograms each!

Ahhh! ! !

One hundred bags of fifty-kilogram wheat flour would be enough for them to eat for a very long time.

It's so delicious, the more you eat, the more you want!

The system is awesome!

"Sister Tian, ​​the gourd contains drinking water. You can have the millet. I'm leaving now."

After knocking on Tian Xiue's door, Zhao Yan skipped breakfast and directly handed Yang Xiaomi and the big gourd to Tian Xiue.

Before leaving, she patted her daughter's head and said gently, "Be good, Xiaomi. Nobody will dare to touch you today. Mommy will go up the mountain to catch rabbits for Xiaomi to eat, okay?"

Yang Xiaomi was about to cry when she realized she was going to be separated from her mother again, but when she heard her mother say she would catch a rabbit for her to eat, she immediately grinned.

"Okay, okay, let's eat meat, let's all eat meat."

Tian Xiu'e quickly pulled the person back.

"Yan'er, let's eat before we go up the mountain."

"No need, I still have to go to town today, I'll try to go and come back as early as possible."

Zhao Yan waved to them and walked towards the back of the mountain with her basket on her back.

[Ding! Polygonum multiflorum spotted 50 meters to the right!]

[Ding! A patch of Panax notoginseng has been spotted 100 meters to the left!]

[Ding! A nest of gray rabbits spotted 50 meters ahead!]

……

Less than fifteen minutes after entering the deep mountains, Zhao Yan heard the mechanical notification sounds of the system from time to time.

With the help of the system, she harvested a bunch of medicinal herbs in less than half an hour, and also caught a nest of gray rabbits, a pheasant, and a nest of wild eggs.

That litter of gray rabbits numbered six, all of them plump and healthy, a delightful sight to behold.

Zhao Yan snapped the necks of the wild rabbits one by one and casually put them into the basket on her back, but in reality, she was putting them into her spatial storage cabinet.

She also chopped off the pheasant's neck with a single stroke and put it into her spatial storage cabinet along with the wild eggs.
