Fortunately, those two people were also scared of being beaten, so they changed their way halfway and took the initiative to stay away from Li's house.

The Li family had another day of hard hiking, and they had to wait until they reached a hillside. Seeing that the sun was about to set, Mrs. Li stopped the donkey cart and let everyone rest.

After being exposed to the sun for a day, the mouths of the Li family were already parched, and the half-sized children were all wilted in the sun, like a few shallots that lacked water.

The good news was always covered by Tao Hongying, but she didn't get the sun, but she was still a little stuffy and lacking energy.

"Mother, I'm going to cook." Zhao Yuru cleaned up the things on the donkey cart, then handed the water bottle to Tao Hongying, and then took the millet to cook.

Seeing Jiayin's dry mouth, Tao Hongying gave her some water to moisten her throat.

"Hey, why is my head so confused..."

Seeing that it was time to cook again, Wu Cuihua'er dawdled beside the donkey cart, clutching her head and moaning.

Mrs. Li knocked on the side of the donkey cart with a cigarette pot, and asked her expressionlessly: "Second daughter-in-law, what's the matter?"

"Mom, I may have suffered from heat stroke, I need to rest for a while..." Wu Cuihua'er said in a weak voice, and sat down in the shadow of the donkey cart, and deliberately squeezed Tao Hongying.

Mrs. Li gave Wu Cuihua'er a gouging look. How could she not tell if she was really uncomfortable or not?But just want to be lazy!

But at the moment they are on the way to escape from the famine, where there is no extra strength to discipline their daughter-in-law, she simply snorted coldly, "If you feel uncomfortable, just sit down, eat half a bowl of rice for a while, and clean your intestines, it will be fine!"

Wu Cuihua'er froze, but she still grunted and refused to get up. Anyway, she was so tired that Zhao Yuru could do whatever she wanted.

"Mother, I'm going to help the third sister-in-law." Tao Hongying had just fed Jiayin, and seeing Wu Cuihua'er's appearance, she got up straight away, carried Jiayin who was full after eating and drinking, and wrapped it in a cloth bag.

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Mrs. Li to stop her, she went over to help Zhao Yuru.

Jiayin was only a few days old, and Tao Hongying was not yet confinement, so of course she was not feeling well, but there were only three daughters-in-law in the family, and Wu Cuihua was lazy, letting Zhao Yuru take care of her all day and cook, and she felt bad about it.

In this day and age, it's good to be alive, so there's no need to talk about confinement.

Tao Hongying felt a slight pain in her lower abdomen, but it was not unbearable. She supported Tuo Jiayin's little buttocks and squatted by the fire to add firewood.

Zhao Yuru had long been used to Wu Cuihua's lazy behavior. Seeing Tao Hongying coming to help, she wanted to persuade her to go back, but she swallowed the words again.

To put it bluntly, Tao Hongying would definitely not go back after she came here. She still worked hard to make her younger siblings more relaxed.

"Hongying, sit down, I'll go over there to see if I can find some wild vegetables." Zhao Yuru found a rock for Tao Hongying to sit on, and then took a small shovel to grope for wild vegetables in the dry grass on the hillside.

Jiayin was lying on her mother's back, looking around with her big dark and moist eyes. At this moment, the Li family members were busy with their work, but no one paid attention to them, so she started to make small movements again.

She first babbled twice in her mother's ear, Tao Hongying hurriedly turned her head to look at her daughter, stretched out her hand to hug her in front of her and untied the small cloth scarf.

"What's wrong, Fu Niuer? Did you pee?"

And Jiayin took advantage of this moment, waving her little hands seemingly indiscriminately, but actually secretly spilled the millet in the space into the pot.

As soon as she finished tinkering, Tao Hongying, who confirmed that the diaper was dry, hugged her again.

Like a thief who just finished something bad, Jiayin quickly reached out to touch Tao Hongying's ear, and spit out two bubbles of saliva.

"I'm hungry just after eating, why do you look like a little pig?" Tao Hongying was teased by her daughter, adjusted her posture and lifted her clothes to feed her.

After these days, Jiayin has long been used to breastfeeding, and she is not vague at the moment, opening her mouth to suck.

Zhao Yuru didn't dig any wild vegetables, and saw Tao Hongying was breastfeeding when she came back, so she helped her to sit under the shade of a tree next to her, and then took a long wooden spoon to stir the bottom of the pot so that it wouldn't get mushy.

As a result, when a long wooden spoon was stretched into the pot to stir, she froze.

Half a bowl of millet, how come the porridge is so thick?It's almost the same as dry rice, and it's still half a pot?

Zhao Yuru raised her head and glanced at Tao Hongying. The latter was ignorant, and was still giggling loudly to make Fu Niuer laugh.

Zhao Yuru cooked the porridge full of doubts, and when it was time to share it among the Li family members, she asked them to eat with a strange expression.

"Mother, how much rice did you give Yuru? Why is the porridge so thick today, and it's still a big bowl?" Li Laosan took the bowl, a little surprised, but more worried.There is not much food left at home, so what should I do in the days to come if I eat so much in one meal?

Mrs. Li was the first to take over the job, so of course she found the porridge to be weird.

After all, she scooped up half a bowl of millet for Zhao Yuru with her own hands, and it was definitely not enough for the Li family to share a large bowl of thick porridge.

"Shut up and eat your meal." Mrs. Li endured the excitement in her heart, lowered her head and drank the porridge, and scolded her son.

Li Laosan was stunned for a moment, and vaguely thought about it, subconsciously glanced at Jiayin who was lying on the side playing with his fingers, and quickly lowered his head to drink the porridge.

Of course others dared not say a word...

This meal was a rare full meal for the Li family, but it was also the most silent meal.

But their eyes couldn't be controlled, and they kept falling on the fat and white Jiayin's face.

Unanimously, everyone blamed Fu Niu'er for this evil incident. It must be the child's blessing again, and the whole family was once again blessed.

After the meal, Mrs. Li hugged the good news, and she couldn't stop screaming her heart and soul.

"Fu Niuer, grandma's little Fu Niuer, you are only so young, grandma will enjoy the blessings with you! Grandma is happy!"

Jiayin danced proudly, which made the old lady laugh more and more. Jiaxi and Jiaan danced side by side, wanting to hug their sister, maybe they could even pick up eggs...

In this way, every time Jiayin took advantage of Tao Hongying's help to cook, she would secretly put the rice stored in the courtyard of the space into the pot.

The Li family ate Jiayin's increased food and ran all the way. Not only did they not lose weight, but the young men even grew a lot stronger.

"Mom! The pier! The pier is ahead!"

Half a month later, the Li family finally arrived at the pier. Li's second son went to inquire about the news, and soon came back madly, ecstatically announcing the good news to the whole family.

The Li family felt relieved and their eyes were red. After fleeing famine for many days, they finally saw the dawn.As long as we can find a boat going south, we can reach Kyoto in half a month.

Everyone quickened their pace, but when they came to the pier, the scene they saw with their own eyes was like a bucket of cold water poured down their heads, cooling them down.

There are boats by the pier, but there are also countless victims fleeing famine.

The boats belonged to rich and powerful families. They went south along the waterway to escape the war. When they saw the disaster victims by the pier, they wished they could hide far away, let alone let them take the boat.

"My lord, please, please give us a ride. We are willing to be cows and horses, just to survive..." Some disaster victims knelt by the pier and begged the rich people on the boat, but the rich people were too stingy to even look at them .
