Dressed as an old woman, I carry the system and my son to escape the famine
Chapter 60 Food Crisis
Therefore, even though she knew there was no way to enter the city, Yao Shu still planned to go to the city gate. It would be better if she could be rewarded with some food. They had been fleeing for a while, and the food was getting less and less.
The food they could get was too little. There were no wild vegetables in the mountains at this time of year. They had always had enough food to eat, and naturally there would not be enough food in the long run.
It can be said that the Shen family is the least short of food. Because of Yao Shu's various measures, their family has a lot of food, but they also eat a lot.
Unlike other families, where it is enough to just pad their stomachs to ensure that they will not starve to death, the Shen family can eat seven to eight times full every time.
As a result, the Shen family's food supply was about to run out, so Yao Shu was worried.
She was really worried that her family would starve to death, and it was difficult to give Yao Shu a sense of security just by saving food at home.
Yao Shu walked to the city gate and the system sound immediately started ringing.
"Hey, it's detected that the host has arrived at a new location. Do you want to check in?"
"Punch the card."
At this moment, Yao Shu couldn't help but pray in her heart, but it must be food. She was even a little nervous. If they couldn't get food this time, their family would have to make careful plans in the future.
"You have successfully checked in to a new location and received a pair of winter boots as a reward. The items have been distributed. Do you want to receive them?"
"Receive and store the system backpack."
Yao Shu's shoulders slumped and she lost all energy. This result undoubtedly made her very disappointed.
Sure enough, the system's rewards still depended on luck. She couldn't put all her hopes in it, she had to think of another way.
"Old lady, it's okay if you can't enter the city. Let's go north and have a look."
Shen Nanshan thought Yao Shu was sad because of being excluded from the city, so he comforted her from the side.
He didn't know how many times he had experienced this kind of thing, but his heart was completely unmoved. They, the refugees, were looked down upon wherever they went.
"Ah."
Yao Shu lowered her head and responded. It was really difficult for her to cheer up again.
Not far outside the city, the people of Dahe Village gathered together to rest. There was also a sense of depression among them. They were always blocked outside the city wall, making them unable to see any hope of survival.
Seeing that Yao Shu was in a bad mood, no one dared to disturb her. Not far away, the two daughters-in-law of Zhao and Qiao were pushing each other.
"Sister-in-law, you should go ahead. You are the eldest daughter-in-law, so you still have to make the decision on this matter."
"It's better for you to go. Brother and sister, you are more popular with my mother. Because I only gave birth to grass, my mother has always been dissatisfied with me. You also know this..."
None of them dared to look for Yao Shu at this stall, as if he was a savage beast.
The original owner was not a good mother-in-law. She scolded her two daughters-in-law so much that they did not dare to make Yao Shu unhappy at this time.
Seeing that no one was willing to take the lead, someone had to do it. Shen Ru happened to be passing by at this time, and Qiao immediately thought of a good idea.
"Sister, don't leave yet, I have something to discuss with you."
Shen Ru was not one to shirk things. After knowing that she really needed to tell Yao Shu about this matter, she immediately walked to Yao Shu's side.
Even if she is her biological mother, Shen Ru is still a little scared. She was taught a lot of lessons when she was a child, and she is no better now.
For this reason, she could not help but hesitate when speaking.
"mother."
"What's wrong? Is something wrong?"
Yao Shu raised her head in confusion. She looked at Shen Ru who was hesitant to speak, and had no idea what she meant.
"What should we eat for lunch? There is not enough food anymore..."
Shen Ru said it with some anxiety. This was what Zhao and Qiao were struggling with.
Yao Shu had told her before that there was no need to dig and search for food at home, but they no longer had enough food. It was hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice. If they didn't do it well, they were afraid of being scolded.
But I guessed that this was not good news, so I didn't dare to speak to Yao Shu.
At home, only Yao Shu was carrying food in her bag, but she couldn't hold on for long.
"Take this."
Yao Shu didn't say much. She handed over the food. She had to eat what she should eat. As for how to get the food, she was thinking of ways.
"and many more."
Just when Shen Ru was about to turn around and leave, she stopped him again.
"Let's make the porridge a little thinner in the future, so that everyone can eat half full."
She didn't dare to open her belly to eat again. Before she had no way to get food, it was better to play it safe. Even if she ate less food, she could sustain herself for a longer period of time.
"it is good."
Shen Ru breathed a sigh of relief. Given the current situation, even if Yao Shu didn't mention it today, she would still find a chance to persuade her.
Since there was no way to enter the city, everyone continued to head north, getting more and more remote as they went, and even fewer people were seen.
Seeing that something was not right on this road, Yao Shu went to the locals to inquire, and then she found out that they were about to leave the boundary of Linyang Prefecture, and in front of them was Bianyang Town, a small border town of Linyang Prefecture.
At the border of each state capital, the population will be relatively sparse, and there are not even villages around.
The division of the state capital was mostly due to the gathering of people and the undulating terrain, which also meant that after passing through Bianyang Town, they had to walk a long way to reach the new town.
This is not good news, and Yao Shu's mood is getting heavier and heavier.
She only hoped that Yang Town would allow them to enter the city, and at least they could spend money to buy some food.
"Hey, it's detected that the host has arrived at a new location. Do you want to check in?"
"Punch the card."
Bianyang Town has arrived, but Yao Shu still hasn't been able to enter the city. This situation makes her have more expectations for system rewards. Other than that, she really doesn't know where to find food.
Even if we have enough food stored at home, it will only last for another half month.
She had no confidence at all whether she would be able to get food in the past half month.
"The new location has been checked in successfully, and the reward is a bottle of gold sore medicine. The items have been distributed. Do you want to receive it?"
"Receive and store the system backpack."
It is true that the golden sore medicine is also an excellent thing, but it is not what Yao Shu urgently needs. She has not received any food rewards after checking in several times. Yao Shu's eyebrows are already covered with a layer of sadness that cannot be resolved.
As expected, we cannot place our hopes on an uncertain system.
Being once again blocked from the city, the momentum of everyone in Dahe Village became even more depressed, and they gradually became numb.
But even so, they still headed north mechanically.
Faced with such a dilemma, it is really difficult to come up with a solution.
Yao Shu had been thinking about this matter, but she couldn't figure out the reason. Food didn't appear out of thin air. She had already begun to wonder if she could spend a lot of money to bribe the guards to buy some food.
