Farm Widow: Pick up a husband to open up wasteland and farm

Chapter 70 The Pillar Attacked
"yawn"

Zhu Zi sneezed several times~
"Could it be that my sister is talking about me?"

Thinking this way from the bottom of his heart, he rubbed his nose with his index finger, he was very tired after driving for seven days~
He looked at Uncle Shan who was sleeping on the ground again. After all, he was much older than him, and his body couldn't bear the torment. After two days of rushing, Uncle Shan fell into a deep sleep as soon as it got dark~
He looked at the bags beside him. There were originally four bags, but now there are only two left, and one is almost empty...

He thought of the gang of bandits he met yesterday, chasing their carriage all the way, chasing them for more than ten miles, they were still divided into two groups of bandits, a group of ultra-small roads chased, and a group chased the main road~
In the end, helpless and outnumbered, he relied on the boxing kung fu taught by his brother-in-law to catch the thief first with a dagger and the king. He pulled their leader over and held the knife to his neck, and let them let the old man go , is considered to have saved the life of Shan Shu.

It's hard to say, those people were originally officers and soldiers, but the famine has been raging for nearly three years, the local yamen has long since been abandoned, and the county magistrates have all fled for their lives, so I don't care about the lives of the people below them, so I can only join forces here Loot some food and live on the road.

Originally thought that if the leader was caught, those people would let them go, but they didn't expect that the people under the ground would not care about the leader's life or death at all. They said that people can be killed, but food must be handed over.

It turned out that this group of people had been following them the night before, and found out how many bags they had brought along the way, and there was a lot of food in the bags.

If he hadn't heard that his companions were going to abandon him, the boss, for food, and the bandits were fighting among themselves, he wouldn't have seized the opportunity to grab Uncle Shan and run away.

When the group of people reacted, they chased after their carriage~
Seeing that he was about to catch up with the two of them, he had no choice but to discard the two burdens at the back of the ox cart. The situation was too urgent at the time, so he didn't care much, so he grabbed two and threw them down...

I saw the group of people in the back, after seeing the baggage still on the ground thrown a certain amount, it fell to the ground and spread out the food inside, provoking the dozen or so bandits, who robbed them fiercely, and they couldn't get the carriage in front...

Uncle Shan in the bullock cart breathed a sigh of relief~
Zhuzi also breathed a sigh of relief~
It was only after running for a long time that they realized that the two bags they had thrown away were the sweet potatoes and potatoes that the two of them had been reluctant to eat for a long time...

Right now, Zhu Zi looked at the sweet potato flour in the bag again, and there were probably more than 20 more...

It is also a bit troublesome to eat. You have to bring water to boil and cook in a pot. It is not as easy as burying sweet potatoes and potatoes directly~
And not every place along this road has a source of water...

The most important thing is that they are still half way away from the capital, but this food...

You can only eat a circle of sweet potato flour a day is the best~
Otherwise, when I return, I won’t have anything to eat, so I won’t be able to return…
-
It rained for two consecutive days, and the lotus root in the backyard grew a lot of new leaves, causing people in the small courtyard to wander around from time to time...

The difference is that every time Jing Yuan looks at another pond without lotus roots...

"Hope these little fish 'thriving' like the vegetables in the front yard"

He was looking forward to it from the bottom of his heart, but the figures of those little fishes didn't seem to change much, but they were swimming around alive...

"My uncle~ I didn't pour cold water on you, I'm afraid this little fish won't survive the winter"
