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

Yao Shu wanted to find someone to ask about the specific situation, but no one in the village was willing to pay attention to them. After asking around, no one could introduce them to them.

Yao Shu reluctantly returned to her place of residence. Shen Nanshan had already prepared hot meals and dishes and was waiting for her to come back to start the meal.

Yao Shu smelled the aroma of rice as soon as she came in. She quickly found a place to wash her hands, then sat at the dining table and started eating.

Shen Nanshan saw Yao Shu eating very deliciously, and felt great satisfaction in his heart. While serving her dishes, he asked about the situation: "You just went out for a spin. How was the effect?"

Yao Shu's cheeks were bulging and she had not yet swallowed the food. When she heard his words, she shook her head helplessly.

"No one in this village paid any attention to me. I had no idea what to do and I didn't know what happened."

Shen Nanshan originally wanted to persuade Yao Shu to leave, but seeing her firm face and the look of not giving up until she was found out, he swallowed his words and just said: "Then it's getting late today, let's take a good rest first. It’s not too late to go out tonight and find out the situation early tomorrow morning.”

Yao Shu glanced at the sky outside and nodded. Because they were not familiar with this village, it was best not to run around at night. What's more, if you can't ask questions during the day, it's even less likely to make any progress at night.

After the two of them finished their meal, the sky had completely darkened. Shen Nanshan went out and brought a basin of water in for Yao Shu to wash up. After the two of them cleaned up, they walked around the house to eat.

Yao Shu chatted with Shen Nanshan over and over again.

"We have been out for a long time. I really don't know what's going on at home. I haven't seen the children for so long, but I miss them a little."

"What's there to think about? A group of brat-sized kids are making a lot of noise!"

Yao Shu smiled and shook her head. Sure enough, in the eyes of parents, children are still children no matter how old they grow.

After walking for a while, the two of them began to feel sleepy. They made the bed and lay down on it. Yao Shu rested her head on Shen Nanshan's shoulder and said in a low voice: "I don't know if there will be any progress tomorrow. I still don’t want to waste too much time on the beginning, after all, there are more important things to follow.”

Shen Nanshan patted her back gently.

"Don't worry, there will definitely be progress tomorrow. Don't worry, just go to bed quickly."

Yao Shu's voice became smaller and smaller, and she gradually fell asleep.

Shen Nanshan placed a gentle kiss on Yao Shu's forehead, and the two fell asleep hugging each other.

The two of them got up early the next morning. For reasons they didn't understand well, they looked around the village and didn't see any problems.

I had no choice but to give up my own search and could only continue to target the villagers.

The two of them noticed a middle-aged woman, who looked relatively friendly, and walked forward together, wanting to talk to her.

The woman was cleaning the door of her courtyard and didn't notice anyone approaching.

Only then did the man notice Yao Shu standing next to her, and asked in a calm tone: "Are you new here? What's the matter?"

Yao Shu was a little happy to see that she was willing to talk to him, and quickly stated her purpose: "I just want to ask, did something happen in the village? I think the attitude of the village towards us is a bit strange, so I wanted to ask, See if I can help you."

The woman raised her head and glanced at the two of them, obviously not wanting to talk to them too much, but Yao Shu finally found the opportunity and was not willing to give up easily.

He took out the cakes in his package and tried to establish a good relationship with her.

"Sister-in-law, look, this is our specialty. I brought it here specially for you to try. We really have no other intention, we just want to know more about it."

The woman collected the cakes and invited the two of them into the house without any further excuses.

He made a chair and put it in front of the wooden table and said, "You guys sit down, I'll get you a glass of water."

Shen Nanshan and Yao Shu looked at each other and saw something interesting in each other's eyes.

The host hadn't sat down yet, so the two of them couldn't just sit there, so they waited for the woman to come over and sit down together.

The woman poured them a cup of tea, then sat down and slowly introduced them to them.

"About half a month ago, all the sweet potato crops in our village were infested by insect pests. They were so dense and scary!"

Looking at the horror on the women's faces, Yao Shu could probably imagine how serious it was, but this could not explain why the people in the village disliked them so much.

The woman seemed to have seen what they were thinking, so she said: "It's not that we haven't thought about using methods to get rid of those bugs, but after several groups of people tried to get rid of them without any results, we gave up and simply stopped planting them." , to prevent more crops from appearing and harming other crops."

"The men sent by the village chief are all famous strong men in our village. When they saw those bugs, they were frightened to death, let alone us women, so when we saw you coming, we were not optimistic."

"After all, this is not just a matter of picking up some things and carrying some burdens. I also advise you to leave quickly and don't waste time here."

After hearing the reason, Yao Shu understood. It was no wonder that they had such an attitude towards her. After all, neither she nor Shen Nanshan could compare to those strong men in their eyes. There were things that even strong men could not do. They did not believe that they could do it either. normal.

But Yao Shu did not listen to the woman's words, but asked: "Since we are here, naturally we can't leave so easily. Sister-in-law, can you take us to see those seedlings? Maybe we can find a way to solve this problem." What about the next problem?”

The woman looked reluctant. Just when she was about to refuse, she saw the cakes on the table. She sighed and thought that it wouldn't be difficult to lead them there after all, so she got up and put them away.

"Okay, I'll take you there, but you still have to go to the specific location yourself. I don't want to see those bugs again. The last time I saw them, I was so scared that I couldn't sleep all night."

Yao Shu nodded and quickly agreed. It was enough for someone to take them there. They had to do the details themselves, so as not to trouble others too much.

After the woman packed up, she took the two of them out of the door and came to the northernmost part of the village. The woman stretched out her hand and pointed to a place.

"It's just over there. You can go there by yourselves. I'll send them here. But don't blame me for not reminding you. Those bugs are indeed scary. You'd better not be too curious."

Of course, Yao Shu would not refuse the woman directly and said: "We understand. Thank you sister-in-law for reminding me. I'm sorry to bother you today. We'll go to your house to sit down another day."

The woman nodded and left in a hurry, obviously not wanting to take a step closer to the crops.
