Yao Shu was impatient with being pestered by Aunt Xiao. After thinking about it, it was not something that could not be disclosed, so she said to her.

"We are going to Zhangzhou."

"If you don't want to say it, forget it. How can you still fool me with such lies? Fortunately, I have never hid the information I got from you before, thanks to your sister."

Aunt Xiao said angrily.

She looked at Yao Shu with wide eyes and dissatisfaction. In her opinion, this was a lie. She would only believe such nonsense if she was kicked in the head by a donkey. Only a fool would go to that damn place in Zhangzhou.

These days, no one believes the truth anymore. Yao Shu looked at Aunt Xiao who was jumping around speechlessly. She really wasn't lying.

She didn't want to get entangled in such a trivial matter, because many people were already looking over at Aunt Xiao's fuss.

At this time, it was not a good thing to attract attention, and it might cause unnecessary trouble. She randomly found an excuse to block Aunt Xiao's mouth.

"We have familiar people in Zhangzhou, so we don't have to worry about having a hard time."

Yao Shu was right and confident. She was not lying. Wang Chengzhi did say that he knew people in Zhangzhou. It was hard to say whether he could let them lean against a big tree to enjoy the shade.

"No wonder."

I don't know what Aunt Xiao thought of from Yao Shu's answer. She had a look of realization on her face and stopped asking any more questions. She looked at Yao Shu enviously and left.

Later, a few people came forward to inquire, but Yao Shu used the same excuse to deal with them.

Soon everyone packed up and left Yuan'an County.

Among the refugees, there were very few who took the initiative to leave. These days, it was extremely difficult to find a city that was willing to let the refugees into the city. However, after finally finding one, some people actually left voluntarily.

After they left, the chatter behind them didn't stop.

"They must be stupid, they heard they are going to Zhangzhou."

"You believe what others say to deceive others. They say they are going to Zhangzhou, so they are going to Zhangzhou? There are some good places to go and they don't want to tell us."

"Can't this be done?"

"Why can't it be done? Unless they are all a bunch of fools, they would be stupid enough to go to Zhangzhou..."

The crowd was talking loudly, and everyone in Dahe Village could hear the commotion. Even if they had already made up their minds, hearing such words still made them uneasy.

Everyone looked at each other and turned their attention to Yao Shu in a tacit understanding.

At this time, they needed reassurance, and everyone's doubts made them wonder whether they had made the right choice.

"There are many people in this world who say grapes are sour when they can't eat them. Everyone knows where the good places are."

Yao Shu said this very calmly.

If it weren't for her mentioning going to Zhangzhou, no one in Dahezhuang would have known there was such a place to go. When everyone thought about it, it seemed to be the same reason, their eyes gradually became firm, and they ignored the words of the people behind them.

Everyone once again lived a life of wandering. Fortunately, when they were waiting outside Yuan'an County, they worked diligently to exchange for a lot of food rations, and now they are not stretched thin on the road.

In addition, there is food rewarded by Yao Shu checking in at the new location. Although everyone can't eat freely, they can still live their lives.

They walked towards the northwest. Although the weather was not getting colder, the wind and sand were getting bigger and bigger.

On this day, when she stopped to rest after being tired from the journey, Yao Shu reached out and wiped her head. Sure enough, her palms were full of dust.

The wind that blew over was filled with wind and sand, which made her quite unbearable.

"Old lady, how about I go get some water and wash you up?"

Seeing her discomfort, Shen Nanshan took the initiative to suggest.

He has been more and more attentive to Yao Shu recently, and more and more people are willing to listen to Yao Shu. This makes him feel a sense of crisis, fearing that his status will not be guaranteed.

"Don't bother."

Yao Shu waved her hand. After all this hard work, she couldn't keep it up for long. When the wind blew, within a quarter of an hour, her hair was dirty and messy again, and her efforts were all in vain.

It wouldn't be a problem if things continued like this. She was really feeling a little uncomfortable and had to think of a way.

Just as she was thinking about it, a strong wind suddenly blew, and she quickly turned her back and covered her mouth and nose.

It took a while for the gust of wind to stop, so everyone couldn't help but complain.

"No wonder no one wants to go to the northwest. The weather is really frustrating."

"Who says it isn't?"

Yao Shuku also had a grimace on her face. She was also blown away by the wind. After she calmed down, she subconsciously checked on the Shen family. Seeing that everyone was fine, she felt much more at ease.

When her eyes fell on Shen Xiaocao, she couldn't help but laugh.

"Bah bah bah!"

Just by looking at that look, you can tell that Shen Xiaocao ate a lot of sand just now, so that's why he behaved like this.

After laughing, Yao Shu also felt sorry for the child and said warmly.

"Xiaocao, rinse your mouth with water. You have to cover your mouth and nose next time."

When reminding Shen Xiaocao, she suddenly realized that there was something very suitable for use now. She patted her thigh in annoyance, why did she only think of it now?

Yao Shu found Shen Ru immediately.

"Ru Niang, please help me make something."

"You can decide what kind of girl you want to be, but you want to make a headscarf?"

Shen Ru would certainly not refuse when her mother asked her to do needlework. She wished she could have the opportunity to be more filial to Yao Shu, otherwise she would still feel a little uneasy.

After all, it is rare for someone to live with her husband and children in her parents' home after getting married and having children.

"It's not a headscarf, it's a mask, used to cover the mouth and nose..."

Yao Shu described it in detail. If it weren't for the fact that this thing was to be worn on her face and wanted to see people, she was a little overwhelmed with her needlework, so she wouldn't have troubled Shen Ru.

It was just a small object, and Shen Ru could make it in less than a quarter of an hour. She readily agreed.

"Mom, just wait, it will be fine soon."

"Make a few more, and your father and children are here too."

Of course, Shen Ru would not refuse Yao Shu's small request. She immediately took out the cloth and needle and thread from her bag and started working quickly.

Yao Shu watched from the side and saw the embroidery needle flying in Shen Ru's hand, the speed was really fast.

In just a moment, Shen Ru stopped her hand, bit off the thread with her mouth, and handed it to Yao Shu.

"Mom, look at it like this."

"My daughter has just the right hand."

Looking at the neat and detailed stitching on the mask, Yao Shu could not be more satisfied, and she did not forget to give her instructions.

"You also teach Madam Zhao and Madam Qiao, and let them use their hands too."

There is no reason why Shen Ru should do all the work for the family.
