Traveling through the daily life of raising a family in ancient times

Chapter 53

You must know that if they stay this time, what awaits them is starving to death.There is no food, and no money to buy high-priced food in the later period.

Compared with the previous life, I really can't say which one is worse.He Yanxin didn't want to see that ending.

In the end, the hesitant Uncle Wu let go and agreed to leave.

"Words! You are a real kid." Uncle Wu choked up.

Back then, they just helped the children from time to time when they were pitiful, but they never imagined that they would have such a situation and rewards now.

"Don't worry, I will definitely return the money to you, even if I lose it someday, your elder brother will return it!"

Aunt Ge also covered her face and wept beside her without saying a word.

He Yanxin couldn't see the old man crying, so after a few words of persuasion, he avoided the scene and went home to ask Song Yeqing for money.

He handed the money to Uncle Wu and said after thinking about it.

"Well, I just want to go to the county seat, why don't I help you buy some food and come back to pick up Sanyou and the others."

The route they left did not include Yongqing County. For convenience, it would be better to pick them up and set off together.

"And I just bought an ox cart, so it's convenient to go there."

He Yanxin had just found out about the Wu family's sale of the cows. Fortunately, he had the foresight to buy two, which should be enough.

"That's good or bad." The big stone in Uncle Wu's heart fell to the ground completely.

He Yanxin went back to hitch the ox cart with a shed and left Anshan Village.

It took him four hours to get to the county town in two and a half hours by bullock cart, and he met Wu Dalang on the way.

"Brother, get in the car!" He Yanxin was driving the bullock cart so fast that those who didn't know it thought he was driving a convertible sports car.

Wu Dayuan asked about the situation after sitting in the car.

He Yanxin didn't say that he had lent money to his family. It's hard to talk about this kind of thing. It's better to ask Uncle Wu to tell him when he goes back.

So he only said to help his father buy food and pick up his third brother's family.

Wu Dayuan felt for the money hidden in his coat, although he wondered why his father still had money, he didn't ask any further questions.

When the two entered the city, they first went to Qi's house to tell them the news, and told them to pack their things and go together.

When the Qi family heard that they were leaving, they packed up immediately without procrastinating.Father Qi went out with He Yanxin to buy food.

They didn't buy too much, as long as they left Qizhou, they could replenish on the way.

Six members of the Wu family bought [-] catties, and four members of the Qi family bought [-] catties.

If you save some food, you can eat it for more than 20 days. The main thing is that if you buy too much, it is not easy to hurry.

The Wu family bought brown rice and miscellaneous grains, but the Qi family also ordered some rice separately, presumably for the sake of Mrs. Qi who is about to give birth.

In order not to be obtrusive, he also bought twenty catties of brown rice for himself.

Even if it's not good food, the price of food has been getting higher and higher, so it still costs a lot of money to go out.

It may be due to the butterfly effect of the news released by the county magistrate. The price of brown rice has risen to six taels of silver per stone, let alone rice.

This is much more outrageous than the previous life at the same time.

It is equivalent to 30 yuan a catty in modern times, so you say it is not out of the question, right?
In their world, the person in charge would be shot.

However, He Yanxin did not regret the consequences.

The more expensive the food, the more people choose to leave Qizhou. It is better to stay away from their homeland than to lose their lives in the future, right?

Nearly 20 people died in Qizhou in his previous life.Starved to death, died in battle, killed by other people... It was horrible.

In short, the account is not bad.

After returning to Qi's house, they had another meal before setting off.

Looking at Mrs. Qi with a big belly, He Yanxin sweated.

Judging from this situation, it is estimated that he was born on the road, right?In my memory, this child seems to be born next month.

As long as you get out of Qizhou, it's easy to say, and I hope there will be no surprises.

Qi's mother put a thick quilt in the bullock cart for Mrs. Qi and stayed in the cart to take care of it. The others didn't get in the cart and just followed.

Pregnant people are not suitable for traveling, but now there is no way.He Yanxin led the ox and tried to walk towards a stable place.

"Little brothers of the He family, have you heard the news?" Father Qi asked.

"Uncle Qi, you can just tell me what you say." Wu Sanyou is younger than him, so that's right.

The Qi family's parents looked very young, and they looked like they were the same age when they walked together with Wu Dalang.

But it's true, Mrs. Qi is only sixteen or seventeen, and the two of them are around 35 at most.

He Yanxin knew what he was asking, and it was strange that the Qi family who lived in the county didn't hear the news.

"Yeah, that's why I want to leave Qizhou quickly."

It was from him that the news first came out.But there is no need to say this, it is easy to scare people.

"I have to leave, Qi who will be killed today..." Qi's father looked around to make sure there was no one before saying the last word, "Wang."

His face was filled with righteous indignation and disgust.

It should be scolded, if it weren't for King Qi's inaction and death, things wouldn't have gotten so bad at all.

He Yanxin was a little melancholy.

A few people chatted and hurried on their way, because they had to take care of Mrs. Qi, it took nearly four hours to get home when it was getting dark, which was not much faster than walking.

He and Song Yeqing had a budget for this result. In the final analysis, the main purpose of buying an ox cart was to reduce the burden on people.

I just rested my feet when I was tired of pulling things and walking, and I didn't even think about letting it ride down.

He Yanxin stopped at the gate of Wu's house to unload the grain, and then He Yanxin led the cattle home.

You can't spend a lot of time cooking and eating on the road, so make most of your food into convenient dry food.

For them, tonight is probably a sleepless night.

"Brother Niu worked hard today." After tying up the cow, He Yanxin washed his hands and prepared to eat.

Uncle Wu and the others invited him to stay for dinner just now, but given the choice, they naturally wanted better food.

So he rejected everyone and went home to eat the meal Song Yeqing had left for him.

Smooth and tender stewed eggs, light and sweet red dates pork ribs and lotus root soup, fried pumpkin tips, and large white rice with distinct grains.It was still warm when it was taken out of the room.

After eating, He Yanxin couldn't help hiccupping again, he couldn't help it, he was really hungry today.

It's just that after the hiccup, his face turned red uncontrollably, and he secretly observed Song Yeqing's reaction from the corner of his eye.

Seeing that she didn't respond, He Yanxin breathed a sigh of relief, and then felt a little inexplicably disappointed.

"What's wrong?" Sensing his gaze, Song Yeqing turned to him and asked.

"No...it's okay." He Yanxin almost choked on the last sip of soup in the bowl.

"Oh." Song Yeqing turned around and put the dried bacon into the oiled paper bag.

You're done.Now leave tomorrow.

Sure enough, the neighbor next door didn't sleep all night, Song Yeqing could occasionally hear the sound of walking around and putting things down here.

At four o'clock in the morning, the two woke up, and the child was still sleeping.

Song Yeqing took out the steamed buns and steamed them in a basket. After they were ready, they put them on the altar.

He family and Song family placed three tablets in front of each, and put apples, sugar, tea and the fruit wine she had brewed before.

There are always incense sticks in the space, which are still useful now.

She silently read a scripture, and the two kowtowed.
