After Hua Yuanyuan finished speaking, she immediately threw herself into Hua Qinglu's arms and began to sob.

"Second sister, I finally see you, Dad and Mom got separated from me.

That night many refugees came to the village. They started to kill anyone they saw with knives. Things were also robbed and some houses were burned down.

We hid in a dark corner of the kitchen, and no one got hurt.

Sister, I don’t know where Dad and Mom are, it’s my fault for not following them closely.”

When Hua Yuanyuan saw Hua Qinglu, it was like she had seen her backbone, and she spoke out everything that was in her heart.

"Third sister, don't be afraid! Dad, mom, big brother and little brother will be fine."

Hua Qinglu also calmed down and helped Hua Yuanyuan back to the house and sat down.

Yu Qingqing brought tonight's meal to the table. It was still a thin vegetable porridge, and there was also a radish that Yu Qingqing secretly took out and mixed it with some cold sauce. It was quite delicious when paired with the vegetable porridge.

Hua Yuanyuan looked at the white shredded radish on the table and felt that she had not seen any vegetables other than wild vegetables for a long time. She didn't expect that her second sister's family conditions were still good and not as bad as she had imagined.

Moreover, looking at Yu Qingji, Yu Qinghai, Yu Qingmei and others, although they don’t have much flesh on their bodies, they are in good spirits.

Although the house where Yu Qingqing and her family lived was a thatched hut, it was clean and tidy, and not as shabby as one might imagine.

Soon everyone sat down. Yu Qingji saw that there was one more person and knew it was his aunt. During the whole meal, his little mouth kept talking non-stop.

Yuan Xichen lives in a dark alley called "Changlang Lane".

It is now the You hour, in the long corridor alley.

Yuan Xichen sat at the table, preparing to eat.

There were delicious dishes on the table, which made people very hungry just by looking at them.

There was a beautiful maid serving him food. He only picked up two pieces of food from each plate with his chopsticks. There were a total of eighteen dishes on the table.

“Please take it away!” After eating a few bites, Yuan Xichen spoke up and stopped eating.

"Your Highness Prince Chen, is the food not to your liking?" The head chef standing next to him asked nervously.

"I have no appetite tonight, you all go down."

Yuan Xichen waved his hand and turned to walk towards the bedroom.

After Yuan Yi's care and hundreds of years of ginseng, Yuan Xichen's injuries have almost healed.

Having delayed here for too long, Yuan Xichen plans to set off tomorrow and reach his fiefdom as soon as possible so as not to be in such a passive position.

Yuan Xichen sat on the bed, but did not fall asleep immediately. His eyes were slightly narrowed. The woman who was disturbed by the carriage that day appeared in his mind.

Ever since they met, Yuan Xichen would always think of that day when it was late at night and everyone was asleep.

He didn't know what was wrong, but he still wanted to see that beautiful figure again.

Yuan Xichen started to gather his energy while lying on the bed, and soon he felt that the energy in his body had been relieved a lot.

"My Lord, I have recently noticed many unfamiliar faces on the road.

Most of them are ordinary people, and they all seem to be fleeing. According to the investigation of my subordinates, there must be a drought in other places.

The weather has been getting hotter recently, so please make plans as soon as possible. Otherwise, if you encounter a large number of refugees, it will really delay your return trip."

Just as Yuan Xichen was stunned, a cold voice sounded outside the window.

“You continue to observe and survey the route to see where you can avoid the refugees.

The king plans to set off tomorrow, you give orders and ask them to prepare well."

Yuan Xichen pondered for a moment and made up his mind.

“If the world is really in chaos, others will definitely not sit idly by and wait for death. It seems that the world is going to be in chaos.

Yuanyi, go talk to Yuaner and ask him to buy more food from everywhere and store it. The more the better. Exchange the silver notes for gold and store it.

Don’t put the purchased food in one place, but put it on the road from Dongyu to the capital.

We have dispersed some of our equipment at various locations to prepare for emergencies.

Also, keep an eye on the movements of refugees and report any unusual movements in a timely manner."

"I obey your command!" Yuan Yi knelt on the ground.

"Also, keep an eye out. If there are refugees who are willing to sell themselves, you can buy them. Remember, it must be a death indenture.

This group of people can be both men and women. Those under eight years old will be trained as secret guards, and those over eight years old will also be trained.

Ask Yuan Er to arrange a reliable person to carry out this matter, and I will conduct regular inspections later."

After Yuan Xichen finished explaining all this, he felt sleepy.

After the maid took off his clothes, Yuan Xichen lay on a bed made of golden nanmu wood.

Xu time, Shuihe Village. Village chief He Qiang's home.

"Boss, are we really going to flee the famine? I heard that many people will die on the way, and they will starve to death if they don't have food.

We don’t know how long the food in our house can last.

And we brought people from the village with us, and the more people we had, the more responsibilities we had.

If anything happens, it is not up to us to decide." The person who spoke was the village chief's wife, Wang Huahua, who wiped her face with a handkerchief.

Even a woman of her age can show signs of aging on her face.

"Mother, you are right. But now we have no other way out except to flee the famine.

The weather is so hot now, and without water, we will starve to death or die of thirst sooner or later.

Even if we are not doing this for ourselves, we should still consider future generations. We would rather suffer ourselves than let our children suffer.

Now the news has been sent to the government, but even if there is a reply, it will still take some time. If you really have to wait, you have to wait with confidence.

Not to mention other people’s food, even our family’s food is not enough to last until the government arrives, and no one can guarantee it.

If people come from above, there will be food for disaster relief, so we can only work hard and rely on ourselves."

Village chief He Qiang also had a worried look on his face, and was about to flee the famine. Although he was planning to go to Dongyu, he was still unsure.

"Mother, don't think too much, everything is not as bad as you think.

It's better for us to go together as a group, rather than being alone and being targeted by others."

"Dad, I understand. It's so late, you should go to bed early."

After Wang Huahua finished speaking, she covered herself with a half-new quilt with several patches, and soon she began to hear snoring.

It was just the hour of Hai, and he was at Yu Qingshu's home.

After Yu Qingqing finished her meal, she slipped into the space and hasn't come out yet.

Tonight, Hua Qinglu arranged for Hua Yuanyuan to sleep with her. She waited until Hua Yuanyuan fell asleep before quietly entering the space. Now there is one more person. It will not be easy to enter the space in the future.

Yu Qingqing yawned repeatedly in the space, and had no choice but to come out and return to the bed.

"Aunt, are you asleep? Aunt?"
