Dressed as an old woman, I carry the system and my son to escape the famine

"Mom, I went to a private school in the city, and there were all children there."

Shen Fugui's face turned red. When he thought of him sitting in a classroom with a group of children, he couldn't learn it at all.

"What's wrong with the child? Don't you..."

Yao Shu almost blurted out the words "Aren't you a child too?" Fortunately, she shut up in time. In her eyes, Shen Fugui was still a child.

If it were placed in other farm families and they tried so hard to get their children to study, but if the children still had such thoughts, they would definitely be taught a lesson.

Studying is an extremely difficult thing, and it can even hollow out a family. If you don't study hard but care about this kind of thing, you will be beaten.

Yao Shu thought about it and understood it. In her opinion, this was human nature.

"What's the point? My family didn't have the means to study before, but now it's not too late to start studying. I heard people say that Grand Duke Jiang didn't become prime minister until he was in his seventies. What's wrong with us studying in our teens? It takes several years. Time will catch up with them.”

In order to keep Shen Fugui's desire to study alive, she said a lot of words sincerely.

Fortunately, what she said was heard, and Shen Fugui nodded after all.

Shen Fugui didn't have a very coy temper to begin with. After being awkward for a while, he thought about it. In the end, his desire to get ahead took over.

"I listen to my mother, but I heard that studying is not cheap. Will my brothers..."

"What are you thinking about? No."

Before he could express his concerns, he was interrupted by Yao Shu.

"Didn't you see that when I asked you to study, your brothers' reactions? You thought I was going to force you to go to the battlefield."

Seeing her describing the metaphor like this, Shen Fugui couldn't help but laugh.

The mother and son finally discussed the matter, and after spring began, Yao Shu sent Shen Fugui to a private school. The stone in her heart was finally settled, and she no longer had to worry about Shen Fugui suddenly going back on her word.

Yao Shu did not hide the fact that Shen Fugui was going to study from the Shen family, and no one had the slightest objection to it, and they did not even get upset about it.

These days, it is important to gain both prosperity and loss. If the old Shen family can really produce a scholar, they will also be able to benefit from it when Shen Fugui becomes an official.

The main reason is that the Shen family is not short of money now. As long as Yao Shu is here, they don't have to worry about hard times. If this was the time before when they couldn't even have enough to eat, the Shen family would naturally complain.

New Year's Eve has arrived in a blink of an eye, and the entire Dahe Village has had a great year this year.

Life is getting better every year, and the Shen family is also very happy. Yao Shu is smiling throughout the New Year. It would be better if there were fewer matchmakers coming to the door.

Nowadays, no one in the radius of a hundred miles knows that the life of the Shen family is easy, and the unmarried boys of the Shen family have become a hot commodity.

It's just that Shen Bei went out to follow the merchants, and Shen Jian'an and Shen Fugui were young, so Yao Shu didn't worry about their children's marriage and just found an excuse to get over it.

Spring is coming after the New Year, and everyone is busy farming for the new year. It’s almost time to stop working on greenhouse vegetables. The next planting of staple grains is even more important, and this cannot be delayed.

In this time of war and chaos, food is the most important thing.

The village chief leads everyone in the busy farming business. Without Yao Shu, her life is quite leisurely, and the Shen family will not let her do the hard work at home.

No, Yao Shu is leading Shen Xiaocao to pick wild vegetables on the hillside. Wild vegetables in early spring are the most tender.

"Xiaocao, don't run too far."

Yao Shu said hello, she didn't dare let Shen Xiaocao run into the deep grass. It would be bad if he encountered a snake.

"Milk, there's a big horse over there."

Shen Xiaocao stood on the hillside and pointed into the distance happily.

From Yaoshu's position, he couldn't see anything. It was just blocked by the hillside. Horses were rare in this country, unless they were carriages belonging to wealthy families.

As she said this, she was also very curious, how could those wealthy and well-off people come to this remote place like theirs? Wasn't this making herself uncomfortable?

When she got closer and took a look, Shen Xiaocao was right. Sure enough, there was a big horse. She saw a man dressed as a sergeant riding a tall horse towards their village chief.

At this time, Yao Shu had no intention of watching the excitement on her face. There were soldiers walking towards their village chief. This was not necessarily a good thing. There were not many situations where soldiers could be dispatched. Moreover, the other party was still wearing armor. He could handle it at a glance. Business look.

She watched on the hillside for a while, and when she was sure that this person was walking in the direction of Dahe Village, she immediately hugged Shen Xiaocao.

"Xiaocao, let's go back first."

In the current situation, if she didn't stay at home, she would really feel uneasy. If something bad happened to Zhuangzi, she might as well be able to deal with it earlier.

However, she really overestimated her physical strength.

Shen Xiaocao was no longer a baby that could be picked up with one hand. After just holding the baby for a while, Yao Shu was panting from exhaustion and her speed inevitably slowed down.

"Milk, I can go by myself."

Shen Xiaocao said very sensibly.

She struggled in Yao Shu's arms for a while, then fell to the ground and pulled Yao Shu forward with her short legs.

Not to mention, the physical strength of children who grew up in the countryside is first-rate, and their speed is not slower than Yao Shu.

"Xiaocao is so awesome."

After Yao Shu reacted, she immediately hurried forward with Shen Xiaocao. When she encountered a relatively large slope, she quickly carried Shen Xiaocao over.

Even though the distance from the hillside to Zhuangzi is much closer than the distance from the officers and soldiers to Zhuangzi that we saw before, human legs cannot outrun a horse. By the time Yao Shu hurried back to the village gate, the officers and soldiers would have already entered the city. Yes, you can tell just by looking at the empty appearance of the village.

When officers and soldiers come into the village, everyone will definitely rush to join in the fun.

Yao Shu listened attentively, but she didn't hear anything. This made her relax a little. If something bad happened, everyone would have started crying for father and mother.

"Milk……"

Children are the most sensitive to their surroundings. Although Shen Xiaocao didn't know what was going on, looking at the missing Zhuangzi, she instinctively felt uneasy and leaned closer to Yao Shu.

"It's okay, don't be afraid."

Yao Shu touched the child's head and walked towards her yard. She didn't know if it was a coincidence. Along the way, she gradually heard voices. As she got closer to home, the sounds became louder.

Could it be that the officers and soldiers went to her house?
