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

After everyone was silent for a while, no one refuted what the village chief said.

Seeing this, the village chief was quite satisfied and immediately got down to business.

"The town closest to us, Qingshan Town, is inaccessible and not safe. Where should we go next? Is there anyone who knows about this area?"

They have to have a direction when fleeing, and they can't just run around like headless flies.

It's best to find a place to stay in a town as soon as possible. It's too dangerous to stay in the wilderness outside the city. Who knows if you encounter bandits again one day, it will be bad.

This time, everyone was even more silent.

These days, farmers rarely leave the county where their hometown is once in most of their lives. Some women have never even left the town in their lives. If it weren't for fleeing, they would not have traveled long distances to the north.

"How about we go around and go back to the south?"

"It's too far away from our Dahe Village now."

"You won't die outside all your life..."

Fallen leaves return to their roots, and it is hard to leave their homeland after all. They all want to go as close to Dahe Village as possible.

This is not impossible. In a place as big as the south, there is always a safe boundary.

The village chief was a little undecided. He had to consider everyone's opinions. Besides, it wasn't completely impossible, but he still felt a little melancholy in his heart.

"Sister-in-law, do you have any ideas?"

"I'm not familiar with this place either."

Yao Shu told the truth that she really didn't know the situation here, but along the way, she also got information. For example, there was a lot of chaos in the south.

The rebels who initiated the turmoil became more and more powerful, and even the officers and soldiers of the imperial court could not stop them. Several small towns in the south were occupied.

This alone made Yao Shu give up the idea of ​​going south.

If you really encounter thieves, even if they have weapons in hand, they will not be enough to see them.

"There are bandits in the south. It's hard to go back now. How about continuing to the north? I heard someone said before that you can reach Tianxia Town by walking another fifty or sixty miles along the official road."

Yao Shu really wanted to go to the city.

The distance of fifty or sixty miles is not far. They can almost reach it in a day's journey. It is difficult not to go and see such a short distance. It is difficult to reconcile.

As for her hometown of Dahezhuang, she has no feeling at all.

"Where should we go north? Do you have any other ideas?"

The village chief nodded slightly. He felt that Yao Shu's idea was reasonable. He was still a little scared when he thought of the brutality of the traitors.

Yao Shu's eyes swept over everyone casually. When she thought about it, everyone must still be as disdainful of the idea she proposed as before.

She was even prepared to be refuted.

But unexpectedly, there was no voice of opposition. After an ordeal, everyone no longer looked at things related to Yao Shu with prejudice, and finally they could look at it with a normal heart.

Thinking about it carefully, what Yao Shu said still makes sense.

After being on the run for so long, everyone wanted to find a place to stay first. Since there are towns as far as possible, it would be good to go and have a look.

"Just go north and have a look."

"Don't happen to meet the thieves this time. They should be able to let us in."

Everyone was talking about it, but in the end they agreed with Yao Shu's proposal. They set off again after dawn and walked towards the north together.

Traveling on the road is undoubtedly extremely hard, especially in today's weather. When the north wind blows, it can give people goosebumps.

"It's too cold today."

Shen Nanshan was shivering from the cold. He covered his cotton clothes tightly and moved closer to Yao Shu, as if they were close together to keep each other warm.

But as soon as he got closer, Yao Shu suddenly pushed him away.

Feeling Shen Nanshan's resentful and disbelieving gaze, she looked away uncomfortably. Her reaction just now was indeed a bit big.

The original owner and Shen Nanshan had been husband and wife for more than 20 years, so she shouldn't be so "excited" just by having such a simple relationship.

Who knows, there has been a change of people inside. She is not used to contact with Shen Nanshan, and thanks to their age, there will be no more intimate things between the two, otherwise Yao Shu will never be able to bear it.

"What are you doing so close? You're blocking my way."

Even if she knew she was wrong, Yao Shu's momentum would never be weak.

Shen Nanshan didn't feel anything was wrong with her being so "fierce". In his opinion, this was considered relatively gentle. He had always had little status with Yao Shu.

"Old lady, why are the weather in the north so cold? Could it be that God is sending another disaster?"

He had never been to the north, so he naturally didn't know the difference in climate between the north and the south. He used past experience to judge, but he was worried about whether there was going to be a snowstorm. He rarely experienced such cold weather.

After Yao Shu heard what was said, she couldn't help but feel dumbfounded. What was going on?

"What are you thinking about? The weather in the north is already a little colder. This is normal. There will be times when it gets even colder."

"how do you know?"

Shen Nanshan suddenly became smart and asked seriously.

He knew Yao Shu very well. He grew up in the Yao family, married to Dahe Village after he became an adult, and spent most of his life with Shen Nanshan.

He remembered that Yao Shu had never traveled far, so how could she know so much?

"Of course I got it from others. It's not like you. I haven't seen you doing anything serious, and I don't know what you are wandering around..."

Yao Shu was just stunned for a moment, and quickly reacted and deceived the matter.

When the sun set in the west and the sky became a little dark, they finally saw the outline of the city wall again.

The news they got was correct, there was indeed a town.

As they got closer to the city wall, Yao Shu's expression became more and more solemn. She could already clearly see the scene around the city wall.

The sight that greeted her eyes made her heart lift.

Although the city gate was still open, there were crowds of people outside the city. Instead of queuing up at the city gate, they were scattered around.

Looking at this situation, I don't think I can let people into the city.

She was almost at the gate of the city. She had to go in and take a look no matter what. Even if she couldn't enter the city, she had to walk there. When she reached the new boundary, she might be able to check in.

They finally arrived at the city gate. There were guards guarding the gate. They looked so menacing that it was impossible to break through.

"stop!"

"Master Jun, we are from Dahe Village. This is our document. Please be accommodating."

The village chief nodded and bowed and spoke to the guard.
