Chapter 77
Xiao Yishu looked at her silent expression, thinking that she was also worried, and said comfortingly: "Actually, what Xiao Yiran said is correct. If you are punished because you can't grow crops, everyone will be punished together."

Song Qingyou suddenly approached him, and said in a low voice, "I found the seeds of crops in my space."

Xiao Yishu immediately understood that she didn't want to say anything.

She continued: "How many drought-tolerant plants are there? Maybe they can solve our urgent need."

Song Qingyou took out the seeds from the space, and was immediately discouraged. There were only ten seeds in total.

She sighed: "There are only ten seeds in total. They can't do anything. It's more like planting a potted plant."

"Why don't we go to the mountain to have a look?" Xiao Yishu suggested.

She looked at him doubtfully and listened to his explanation: "Look, there has been a drought here for three years, and all the crops have died long ago, but they can still survive. Maybe the secret is in the mountains."

In the evening, Song Qingyou and Xiao Yishu took advantage of the darkness and quietly went up to the nearby mountains.

The foot of the mountain was deserted, with no grass growing, and Song Qingyou's heart felt cold.

"Look up." Xiao Yishu looked very experienced: "The disaster victims at the foot of the mountain are only concerned with escaping from the famine, and they will not go up at all."

Song Qingyou looked at him dubiously.

The two of them continued to walk forward. The higher they went, the wider their field of vision became. Song Qingyou finally saw clearly the entire face of Kushui Town. The red-yellow land, everything was bare and lifeless.

On the mountain, there were a few drought-resistant plants sparsely. She took out the seeds in her hand and compared them with the fruits of the plants. They were exactly the same.

"That's it," she said.

The two men just started digging.

Early the next morning, officials came to count the number of people and went to work.

"Why don't you see Song Qingyou and Xiao Yishu?"

Xiao Yiran said: "These two people went out in the middle of the night and haven't come back yet."

"What? They ran away! You two sneaked out, didn't you know how to stop them?" the official said angrily.

Xiao Ningning wiped away her tears and said aggrievedly: "Master, you really think highly of us, how can we stop you?"

If she could have run away, she would have run away.

"Dig three feet of ground for me, and find those two people!" the official said angrily.

"Wait until I find these two people, and see if I don't skin them!" The official said through gritted teeth.

A team of officials, the remaining few looked at the rest, and the rest all went to find Song Qingyou and Xiao Yishu.

Tang Yulian asked in a low voice, "How do you know that the two of them escaped?"

"I don't know, it's nonsense." Xiao Yiran showed a cold smile.

Tang Yulian was speechless: "You still..."

"The two of them go out in the middle of the night, it must be nothing good." Xiao Yiran said firmly.

Seeing Tang Yulian's tangled look, Xiao Yiran said comfortingly: "If they come to cause trouble for us afterwards, we won't be afraid of them if we join forces!"

Xiao Yiran secretly clenched his fists.

Several officials handed each of them a small cloth bag. They opened it and saw that inside were seeds that were almost turning black.

"Master, what does this mean?" Xiao Yiran took the lead in asking.

"Your task today is to sow all these seeds." The official said loudly.

"How is this possible? These seeds have already turned black, how can they still be planted?" Tang Yulian took out the seeds and showed them to the officials.

With a clang, the knife in the officer's hand came out of its sheath.

"Why are you talking so much nonsense? Whatever the magistrate tells you to do, do whatever you want!"

Tang Yulian shut up.

The official said to the remaining people: "Whoever can win the food from now on will have food to eat. We don't support idlers here."

Xiao Ningning immediately started crying: "Mom, I would rather dig the ground."

"Kushui County is such a big place, where is the land for you to dig every day?" The official said, "After digging the land, it's time to plant seeds."

"Master, you are being difficult. Now is not the season for sowing. If we continue to sow these seeds, won't they all die?"

"I use you to teach me how to do things?"

When the sword was on the verge of breaking out, Song Qingyou rushed back with Xiao Yishu.

"Where did you two die?"

Song Qingyou smiled and said, "Master, didn't I go looking for seeds with him?"

"You're looking for seeds? I'm going to use you to find seeds?" Guan Cha said angrily.

Give them cloth bags, one for each: "Your task today is to sow seeds. Whoever's crops grow well in the future will have food to eat."

Song Qingyou glanced at the blackened soybeans and said, "Tell the county magistrate to plant this for me."

"You said planting yours, so you planted yours. Who do you think you are?" the official said angrily.

Xiao Yishu stepped forward and said, "Master, what she said is true. If we plant this, we are more likely to grow crops."

The officer looked at the two of them thoughtfully: "Someone reported just now that you two had escaped. Could it be that you two didn't escape and just took something to fool us?"

"How can the county magistrate's words be wrong? Just plant what's in the bag in your hand!"

Song Qingyou immediately grasped the key point: "Who said we escaped?"

"Officer, we really slipped out to find seeds. Although this behavior is very undesirable, we are really doing it for everyone's benefit." Song Qingyou winked at the officer desperately.

The officer was dubious, and said: "It seems that your guards need to be strengthened." If one of them really ran away, it would be fine if he was caught, but if he couldn't be caught, the entire county government would not be able to eat and walk around.

Song Qingyou took out his own seeds and handed them to the official: "Can you please help us meet the county magistrate?"

Xiao Yishu gently pulled her: "What are you thinking? Why should you alert the county magistrate? Wouldn't it be better for us to grow our own?"

"If the magistrate of the county is not allowed to be our backer, are you sure Xiao Yiran and the others won't cause trouble for us?" Song Qingyou asked soulfully.

Xiao Yishu immediately understood what she meant, he was not afraid of thieves but worried about her.

"Are you meeting the county magistrate?" The officer squinted at her.

Song Qingyou nodded.

"Bah, why don't you look in the mirror? You're an exiled prisoner and you still want to see the county magistrate?"

"Master, if I can't grow food, you can do whatever you want with me. If I can really grow food, you have the opportunity to recommend me to the county magistrate. The county magistrate will definitely be impressed by you." Song Qingyou said bewilderedly.

The official looked moved.

Song Qingyou continued to bewitch and said: "When the time comes, I will make you a captain or something, don't forget me!" After saying that, Song Qingyou slipped a pack of compressed biscuits to the officer without a trace.

It was taken from her space. She took a look at the production date and saw that it would expire in two months. Why not give it as a favor to the official?
