Dressed as an old woman, I carry the system and my son to escape the famine
Chapter 121 Arrival in the Desert
In Shen Nanshan's view, since his son is so old, he has nothing to worry about. He is in good spirits, and no one has been injured or sick, so it is nothing.
These days, when raising children, you don’t care about the child’s spiritual world. Being able to keep the child fed, clothed and warm is already very good.
But Yao Shu didn't think so. She tried to make Shen Nanshan understand.
"Don't you see that the fourth child is different from before? He used to be quiet, but now he is rushing to work. He basically does all the work at home. He does more and eats less. I have never seen him Added some food."
Even though they are still on the run, the Shen family's food is not that scarce, and it is no problem to eat to half full.
Yao Shu was really worried that Shen Jianan would develop something wrong if he continued like this.
From the various behaviors of the other party, she estimated that the other party wanted to atone for his sins, but Shen Jian'an still blamed himself for his previous mistakes, unable to overcome the hurdle in his heart.
"It doesn't matter if you work harder."
Shen Nanshan scratched his head. He looked confused, but he still couldn't figure out the key.
Seeing how confused he looked, Yao Shu couldn't help but feel a little depressed. She wanted Shen Nanshan, the father, to have a good chat with Shen Jian'an so that the father and son could talk more casually.
It seems that this is not possible now.
She glared at Shen Nanshan and gave up her thoughts.
When Shen Jian'an came back with a bundle of firewood on his back, Yao Shu called someone over.
"Mom, are you looking for me?"
"sit."
Yao Shu raised her head and looked at Shen Jian'an, and couldn't help but murmur in her heart. They were obviously from the south, but why were the Shen family members tall and tall, and they stood out among the people in Dahe Village.
"Fourth, are you tired lately?"
"Not tired."
Listening to Shen Jian'an's answer, Yao Shu couldn't help but be speechless. She blamed Shen Nanshan for being unreliable. As a mother, she really didn't know how to communicate with her son.
She thought for a while before speaking.
"What happened to Rou Niang is not your fault. It's not your fault that you were kind enough to save others. It was Rou Niang who was at fault. To put it bluntly, so many people in the family didn't find anything wrong with her. Don't take all the faults on yourself. Take it personally..."
Yao Shu rambled on, and what she said was true. After she finished speaking, she realized that Shen Jian'an, a young man, was already secretly wiping away tears.
She didn't know how to react for a moment, so she just raised her hand and patted Shen Jian'an on the shoulder.
"Mom, I was wrong."
Shen Jianan said with sobs.
Fortunately, he had always thought that his parents didn't care about him, and he still looked down upon his family's blackmailing behavior. He was still thinking about breaking up the family. He was wrong. His mother obviously couldn't be more reasonable.
It was all because he was too hopeless before and his mother had no choice but to do this.
"Mom, I will do a good job in the future to honor you and dad."
"Okay, my son is filial."
Yao Shu was quite surprised to see Shen Jianan's change. She didn't expect that her words could bring such a good effect, so it was an unexpected surprise.
After that, Shen Jian'an returned to normal. He was still diligent in his work, but not desperate.
The Shen family had a lot of strong laborers, so they didn't have to work too hard in the first place, and there wasn't much work for them to do on the way to escape.
After everyone kept walking, they finally climbed over another mountain, and immediately they were severely shocked by the sight in front of them.
"I'm a dear mother, what the hell is this place?"
"How did we end up in this noisy place? Did we go astray?"
No wonder everyone was so shocked. Looking around, there was a vast desert in front of them. It was not an exaggeration to say that there was no grass growing. Everyone in Dahe Village had escaped from the south and had never seen such a scene.
It was such a beautiful piece of land, but not even a tree grew there.
The group stopped at the edge of the desert, unsure whether to continue going forward.
Facing this place they had never been to before, they felt panicked, so they should just wait for the village chief and Sister-in-law Yao to come up with an idea.
Most people have this idea. They have now figured out the truth, that is, they are right to follow the arrangements of smart people, but they have lived a good life until now.
Now, the village chief also found Yao Shu to discuss the matter.
"Sister-in-law, should we take a different route and go around?"
Not to mention how worried the village chief was, they finally got here and it was not easy to find a way around it. He carefully looked at the surrounding terrain and asked about it.
If you want to go to Zhangzhou, it is difficult to bypass this desert.
Unless we go back several counties and pass through from the other direction.
He told Yao Shu all this news. Compared to his hesitation, Yao Shu said very confidently.
"No detours."
They didn't have enough food. In this cold winter month, the food they found outside was not enough to fill their stomachs. They relied on the food rewards Yao Shu received from unlocking new locations and punching in to persevere all the way.
If you go back, the reward will be gone.
Others may not know the inside story, but Yao Shu knows it all too well. They have no way of turning back and can only choose to move forward.
"I'll go look around and think of ideas."
She did not elaborate on the reason why she could not take a detour. Fortunately, the village chief did not continue to ask. The village chief believed that Yao Shu must have a reason for doing so.
Standing on the edge of the desert, Yao Shu bent down and grabbed a handful of sand. She looked at the endless desert, not to mention how worried she felt. The desert was not that easy to cross.
Not only can we not find food, but there is also no water source, so everyone has to risk their lives in it.
This time, she didn't dare to make a decision easily.
She took a few tentative steps into the desert. She was still on the edge of the desert and could still see some plants, but there was nothing edible here.
"Hey, it's detected that the host has arrived at a new location. Do you want to check in?"
"Punch the card."
Yao Shu was a little dazed. She was so busy worrying that she almost forgot that she was in a new place.
"The new location has been checked in successfully. The reward is ten barrels of drinking water. The items have been distributed. Do you want to receive it?"
"Receive and store the system backpack."
In the blink of an eye, most of the sadness on Yao Shu's face dissipated. She really didn't expect that the system's rewards could be so timely, including drinking water.
If it were in the past, she would have lamented this reward. Water is not a valuable thing, but now it seems that it is the best.
With this drinking water, she has the courage to explore forward. At least she will not be trapped and die in the desert, and she can come back.
Ten buckets of water were enough to last everyone for ten days.
After getting the good news, Yao Shu started to walk back. She knew how to reply to the village chief.
