Traveling through famine years, peasant girls hold space in their hands to store food

Lao Hu, who was driving the carriage, looked at Lu Qingqing and his wife who were rushing to the front, and said with emotion that King Chen was really good to the eldest lady.

Mr. Lu in the carriage curled his lips and said in a deep voice: "You are not young anymore. It's time to find a wife."

After Mr. Lu finished speaking, the old wife on the side pursed her lips and chuckled, nodded in agreement, and asked what kind of girl Lao Hu wanted to find?

Old Hu, who was driving the carriage, giggled and asked, "Can I get a wife for this indifferent person?"

"Why can't you? Don't worry, I will take care of your marriage. When you return home to find your brother, you will recognize me as your adoptive father. This will also fulfill the friendship between you and me for so many years."

Lao Hu stiffened after hearing this. The eight-foot-tall strong man's eyes suddenly turned red. He was saved by the old man when he was very young and has been by his side ever since.

This relationship has long surpassed the relationship between biological father and son.

"Hey, Lao Hu listens to his adoptive father and drives!"

After saying that, the reins in his hands were tightened, and he was drinking loudly, and the smile on his face could not be wiped off.

Mrs. Lu looked at the old man with a smile on her face. This stubborn old man should have been like this a long time ago.

"Don't blame me for not discussing it with you."

Mr. Lu asked cautiously.

Old Mrs. Lu glanced at him and asked, "Why is she so ignorant in his eyes?"

"Hahaha... Where, my wife, Lu Chengtian, is the most sensible person."

Old Mrs. Lu glanced at him angrily, and Old Hu outside the carriage also grinned widely, with a silly smile that surprised the guards following him.

At this time, Lu Qingqing and the others had already run to a small village, which was at the bottom of a cliff. The waterfall pouring down from the top of the cliff converged into the clear river at the bottom of the cliff.

"Chu Haochen, let's take a rest here and wait for my grandfather and the others."

Lu Qingqing came to the river, turned over and dismounted, looked at the clear river water, she squatted down and stretched out her hand to paddle across the water.

Later, Chu Haochen rode a horse up to him, got off his horse and walked slowly towards Lu Qingqing.

The two horses walked obediently towards the green grass by the river.

"Qing'er, be careful."

I saw her reaching out and splashing water towards Chu Haochen.

Chu Haochen smiled helplessly, like a child sometimes.

"Chu Haochen, come and try the water. It's so cool!"

He raised a smile and told Lu Qingqing to be careful not to get her clothes wet and catch a cold.

At this time, a burst of heart-rending shouts came from the distance.

Lu Qingqing looked in the direction of the sound in surprise, and slowly stood up. Chu Haochen on the side stepped forward and blocked her waist, and the two looked at each other.

"Grandma, please stop beating me. Even if you beat me to death, I don't want to marry you."

Lu Qingqing raised her eyebrows and motioned Chu Haochen to come forward and take a look.

Ahead is a small village under the cliff. The village doesn't look big, with a dozen thatched houses scattered around.

In the center of the village, a group of people were watching the excitement.

"Oh, what a sin! This Mrs. Wang is so partial."

"Who says it's not the case? This eldest daughter-in-law has finally brought up several children, and she is going to act like a monster again."

"Yes! I heard that Mrs. Wang's eldest granddaughter was sold by her since she was a child."

The women in the village were chatting away, but no one noticed Chu Haochen and his two men approaching each other at the edge of the village.

I saw the old woman holding the girl's wrist and beating her back hard.

The girl's thin body huddled up as hard as she could. Some villagers around her tried to persuade her, but to no avail. This Mrs. Wang was also a scoundrel in the village.

When he was young, he was partial to his biological son and drove his stepson to death, leaving only the stepson, the orphan, the widow, mother and son.

But less than half a year after the stepson's death, the eldest daughter was secretly sold to Renyazi by Mrs. Wang. The child was only three years old at the time.

The eldest daughter-in-law cried her eyes out and couldn't get back a word of truth from Mrs. Wang's mouth. She never saw her eldest daughter again until she died.

The little daughter was choked when she reached the age of proposing marriage, and the old lady had another idea for her.

How pitiful!

Lu Qingqing and his wife, who squeezed into the crowd, frowned at the scene in front of them.

"Grandma, please let me go. I don't want to marry a fool. I am obedient and will work hard to make money for you."

Lu Qingqing learned from the villagers that the girl's name was Ruiniang.

"Fellow, doesn't the village chief of this village care?"

Lu Qingqing asked the woman next to her. The woman stretched her neck and kept looking forward. She didn't even look at who was talking to her. She replied angrily:

"Village chief? The one Ruiniang was forced to marry was the village chief's stupid son."

There was a bit of sarcasm in her tone as she spoke, but as soon as she finished speaking, the woman felt speechless. She covered her mouth with her hand and turned around when she saw the two strangers.

The lady was startled for a moment and then was amazed by the appearance of the two of them. She opened her mouth and asked tentatively:

"Who are you?"

Lu Qingqing smiled slightly and replied that she was a passerby and was attracted by the movement here.

The lady looked at the clothes of the two people and knew that they were not ordinary people, so she smiled awkwardly.

"Auntie, did you just say that this old woman is going to force her granddaughter to marry a fool?"

The lady sighed helplessly and nodded slightly.

Lu Qingqing looked up and saw that the girl was beaten so hard that she was desperate. She raised her head and stared blankly at the old woman in front of her, letting her beat her.

The girl's disheveled hair was slapped to her ears, revealing her thin but familiar face. She was startled, and then she looked at Chu Haochen beside her.

Chu Haochen was also thinking with his eyebrows furrowed at this time. The face of this girl seemed familiar, but he didn't know...

Suddenly, a figure flashed in his mind, and he pulled Lu Qingqing's sleeve with a glint in his eyes.

"Qing'er, does this girl look familiar to you?"

Lu Qingqing didn't expect Chu Haochen to feel the same way. Just when she was about to speak, she heard Chu Haochen say two words: "Biyun..."

"Yes, I asked why she looks so familiar. She is really similar to Biyun. Chu Haochen, do you think it could be..."

The woman next to her heard the conversation between the two clearly, and asked with a gossipy look: "You are not talking about Ruiniang's sister, are you..."

Lu Qingqing was surprised at the lady's words and frowned, then asked her what was going on. The woman led Lu Qingqing to the back of the crowd.

He explained Ruiniang's life experience to them.

At this time, Lu Qingqing and Chu Haochen were still not sure whether Biyun was Ruiniang's sister, but Biyun and the others were in the convoy behind them and believed they would arrive soon.

"Chu Haochen..."

He saw Qing'er's intention, smiled slightly and said softly that as long as he was here, he could do whatever he wanted.

"Chu Haochen, thank you!" He said and squeezed into the crowd again.
