The steamed buns and eggs that were prepared for Xie Kui were given to him, lest if he failed to survive in Yunzhou, they would have to help raise the child and the business would become a loss-making business.

Little Tieniu ate hard-boiled eggs and said goodbye to Xie Kui with tears. Finally, he no longer had to live in Tibet with Uncle Xie Kui and not have enough to eat three meals a day.

If the Jiang family wants to go to Yunzhou, they must first retrace their steps and walk a hundred miles, and then go south.

At this time, we have walked thirty or forty miles.

"We'd better hurry up and don't run into the refugees heading to Qingzhou."

Mr. Jiang said with some concern.

"Brother, then you can heat up some more steamed buns, boil some potatoes and eggs, and we won't stop on the way until we get through this stretch."

Jiang Li agreed with the old man. The destructive power of refugees is not small. After all, the explosive power of a hungry person is unpredictable.

Turning around to see Jiang Youli leisurely and leisurely, Jiang Li also assigned a task, "Dad can rest for the next two days, and then go collect herbs with me later."

Jiang Youli's feet stopped shaking now and drooped completely.

Mrs. Zhao was arranged to do needlework on the side. It was originally used to make winter clothes for their family, but now there is Tieniu.

Although the clothes on Tieniu's body were tampered with after running around and hiding all the time, the texture was different from theirs at first glance.

He quickly asked Mrs. Zhao to make clothes for Tieniu.

Mrs. Zhao changed Jiang Baishu's clothes, just make them smaller.

Jiang Li cut off Tieniu's long hair and could only tie it into a small braid.

Let Abo and Tieniu stand side by side and take a quick look. It's much better. Even Tieniu's little face is still white and tender, and the flesh is plump. At first glance, it can be seen that Tieniu is well-raised at home.

"Abo, let's take Tieniu to play. Don't you like roasted earth dragons?"

Jiang Li stuffed two pieces of candy into them.

When Jiang Baishu saw that Tieniu had picked up his clothes, he became less hostile and more friendly towards Tieniu's brother.

"Brother, give me this shovel!"

Jiang Baishu took out his special small shovel and gave it to Tieniu, while he took Jiang Li's shovel.

Looking at the dried mud above, Tieniu clasped his hands behind his back and refused to take them.

Jiang Baishu obviously didn't feel Tieniu's resistance. When he didn't answer, he hugged the two shovels and freed up one hand to hold Tieniu.

Seeing Tieniu stick his butt back but still being pulled away by Jiang Baishu, Jiang Li nodded happily.

After Jiang Baishu pulled the man away, Tieniu still didn't want the dirty shovel and pulled out the dagger left by Xie Kui for him to protect himself.

Therefore, the dagger, which is as sharp as iron as mud, was used to dig out the earth dragon.

"Sister, look, this is easy to use. You can dig up the earth dragon in one go."

Jiang Baishu watched Tieniu digging and playing in the soil and borrowed his dagger. He discovered another use of the dagger and remembered that Jiang Li also had a dagger.

Jiang Li looked back, then walked over, squatted with the two children, took the dagger and started playing with it.

This dagger should be valuable. Although it is not as valuable as the jade pendant, it is priceless and has no market. Even if you have a thousand taels of silver, you can't find a place to buy it.

Jiang Li wiped the dagger with a rag, wiped it clean and gave it back to Tieniu, "This dagger was left for you by your uncle Xie Kui for self-defense. It must be hidden well so that no one can see it."

"Sister, don't you have one? You can exchange it with Tieniu. Tieniu is beautiful, with shiny gems on it."

Jiang Li looked at Jiang Baishu and ruffled his hair, "You have a very vicious eye. This dagger is much more expensive than your sister's five taels of silver. Besides, it's an iron cow. We won't take it from others." .”

"Okay." Jiang Baishu gave up.

After making some repairs on the spot and preparing food for the next journey, the Jiang family set out again.

This time the carriage went faster.

The carriage didn't stop very long along the way, and it only took a day and a half to enter the official road going south.

After walking back, the Jiang family met many people who were fleeing one after another along the way. They were all so hungry that they were all skin and bones with green eyes. If they stopped, they would be chewed to pieces.

Everyone on the carriage had no objections. They took turns to keep vigil at night, and no one had any objections. After all, if you were not careful, you would be spotted by the refugees and attacked in groups.

"It'll be fine once you get over this journey."

Mr. Jiang opened the curtain and looked outside, inexplicably thinking of the first, third and fourth bedrooms. Although he was left behind by his three sons, he could not help but still think of them in his heart.

The carriage encountered the most refugees at the intersection where it entered the official road heading south. From time to time, groups of people could be seen. There were basically no children in this group. There were mostly men and some women, but most of them had numb faces.

"Is there anything to eat?"

"Give me something to eat!"

"Please give me something to eat!"

As soon as they saw the carriage approaching, some refugees on the road began to beg.

Mrs. Zhao was a little soft-hearted and wanted to throw in a few steamed buns, but Mr. Jiang immediately scolded: "Second daughter-in-law, you are confused!"

"Second brother, take care of your wife, don't be too kind!" Mr. Jiang said sternly.

Jiang Li, who was concentrating on driving the carriage in front, didn't see Zhao's movements, but she roughly guessed what happened from Mr. Jiang's words, so she immediately whipped her whip and increased her speed.

I thought to myself, fortunately there is an old man sitting behind the scenes.

After all, Jiang Dacheng was also a person who had traveled through rivers and lakes. If these steamed buns were thrown away, their carriage would not be out for a quarter of an hour. Not to mention the food, even the few of them would be eaten alive.

"You bitch, your life is too comfortable, right?"

Jiang Youli slapped Ms. Zhao, "If you make any more decisions, get out of here and go with them!"

This time Mr. Jiang didn't stop Jiang Youli anymore, and the second daughter-in-law did all the stupid things.

After being scolded, Ms. Zhao did not dare to take out food when she saw the refugees again.

When the two children, Jiang Baishu and Tieniu, saw this scene, they did not dare to speak.

"No one can easily give away these grains without Ah Li opening his mouth."

Mr. Jiang looked around at everyone and struck again.

The carriage kept going south, and some refugees could be seen intermittently on the road, but the further south, the fewer people there were. Although it was delayed for a few days, the carriage was still faster after all.

The Jiang family arrived at Yunzhou Fucheng one day ahead of the refugees behind them, and were stopped at the city gate.

"Show me your household registration. Where are you from?"

As soon as the carriage arrived at the city gate, the guards at the city gate stopped and questioned them.

Jiang Li took out her household registration.

"Anzhou? Did you come here to escape?"

The guard looked through the household registration and asked.

Mr. Jiang felt something in his heart and asked cautiously: "What? Are people from Anzhou not allowed to enter the city?"

The guard ignored it and just continued to ask, "There are only five people in this household registration. How come you have seven people here now?"
