A Lucky Wife Born Again From a Farm Family Chapter 38

Chapter 38 Quarrel

“Going south?” The third grandfather frowned deeply, took the letter from Gu Jinli, and called to Gu Jinan: “Brother An, come and take a look.”

Third Grandpa didn't know many words and couldn't understand what was written on it. Gu Jinan pointed at the words on the letter and told him one word at a time. After Gu Jinan finished speaking, Third Grandpa's frown deepened.

Gu Dafu also frowned and said: "Why are you going south? Our ancestors in Gujia Village are from Yangji Mansion in the east. This escape is to return to our ancestral land. If we go south, we will be farther and farther away from our ancestral land. .”

Before the village began to flee famine, his father had discussed with the villagers that he wanted to return to his ancestral home, Yangji Mansion, and the villagers agreed, so they kept walking eastward.

"Besides, all the victims are going east, so we're going south. Aren't we separated from everyone? What should we do if something happens?" Gu Dafu is a relatively rigid person. After experiencing half of the villagers being killed, After the disaster, he tended to be more conservative, that is, he honestly followed the route set by Village Chief Gu.

After months of fleeing the famine, he has become familiar with the victims who are fleeing the famine together. If he is suddenly separated from the victims, he will feel flustered and uneasy.

Mrs. Chen was also unwilling to go south. After hearing Gu Dafu's words, she nudged Gu Dagui with her elbow. Seeing that Gu Dagui ignored her, she simply said to herself: "San Bo, we can't go south. I heard that southerners are bullying students. If we go If you go south, you will definitely be bullied to death by the southerners."

Gu Dagui scolded: "What do you know, you bitch? Shut up now. People from the south bully students, but people from Yangji Mansion don't bully students? Anyone who has left his hometown will be bullied wherever he settles down."

Mr. Chen curled her lips when she heard Gu Dagui's words and said nothing more.

Third Grandpa looked at Gu Jinli and asked, "Xiao Yu, tell me, why did the eldest young master of Qi Mansion let us go south?"

Then he looked at the several families present, especially the brothers Gu Dafu and Gu Dagui, and said, "The eldest young master of Qi Mansion is a wise man. He can leave this letter to Xiaoyu, which shows that he sincerely wants to remind us. "

 The third grandpa said this because he wanted to protect Gu Jinli. After all, she is a ten-year-old child, so it is better not to blame her for some things.

The adults nodded and said to Gu Jinli, "Xiaoyu, tell us why the young master of Qi Mansion reminds us to go south?"

Gu Jinli said: "It's too cold in the east. I heard that it will snow in Yangji Mansion in the east in autumn. At the coldest time, there is ice everywhere and it can freeze someone to death. It is already early autumn. If we go further east, it will not be there yet." You will freeze to death when you get to Yangji Mansion."

Several adults were shocked when they heard this. Luo's father walked past the **** and was well-informed. He had heard about the cold in the east, so he said: "Xiaoyu is right. It does snow in some places in the east in autumn, and it is very cold."

Mr. Qin also said: "When I was young, I walked through Yangji Mansion several times. It was really cold there. When winter comes, it gets freezing cold. The people don't dare to go out. They stay at home in the winter."

He looked at the clothes of several families and said to the third grandfather: "Brother Gu, we don't have winter clothes to keep out the cold. If we go east, we will freeze to death before we reach Yangji Mansion."

As soon as Mr. Qin said these words, several family members turned pale with fright.

The third grandma looked at everyone's clothes and said fearfully: "Then we can't go to Yangji Mansion, we will freeze to death on the road."

Mrs. Chen looked at the clothes on her family of four and thought that they might freeze to death if they went east. She was also scared and was too scared to say anything more.

Gu Dafu also hesitated.

Gu Jinli took the opportunity to say: "It's not only cold in the east, but there are also many victims. The victims of the seven northwest prefectures are heading east in batches, eating up all the food they can eat. We haven't reached Yongtai Prefecture yet. We can't find any food on the road." There are only leaves and grass roots left. If we go further east, what will we eat? We will either freeze to death or starve to death."

Yongtai Prefecture is the dividing line between the northwest and the northeast. Once you pass Yongtai Prefecture, you enter the northeastern territory. Three months further east is Yangji Prefecture.

Mr. Qin didn't seem to want to go east, so he took over Gu Jinli's words and said, "It's easy for disaster victims to get into trouble. When everyone is hungry and anxious, the victims will start to grab food. Most of the evil people in the past few days were The victims who fled the famine were so hungry that they picked up hoes and shovels to kill people and steal things." Mr. Qin paused and continued: "Those evil people are also going east, just in front of us. If we go further east, You might run into them."

 Everyone was still afraid of the villains from the past few days. When they heard Mr. Qin's words, their faces turned pale with fear.

Chen was the first to say: "Then why should we go to the east? Don't go, it's too dangerous. Let's go to the south." Even if the southerners bully people, they will not kill people with hoes like those evil people.

When Qin Erlang heard what Mr. Qin said, he glanced at him anxiously. He wanted to say something but held back.

Gu Jinli continued: "There's nothing wrong with going to the south. It's warm there. I heard there's plenty of rain and very few droughts. If we go to the south, we'll live a good life. At least we don't have to worry about drinking water."

Luo's father nodded in agreement: "It is indeed warmer in the south than in the north, and there is plenty of rain. I heard that people there don't plant sorghum or wheat, but instead plant rice filled with water in the fields."

“Fill the fields with water?!” Ms. Chen was shocked. There was a lack of water in the northwest, and all crops were grown on dry land. In her half-life, she had never heard that the fields could be filled with water before planting crops.

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go to the south." When Chen heard that the south had plenty of water and no drought, she was so envious that she wished she could go to the south and settle down now.

The third grandfather looked at Gu Dafu and asked, "Dafu, what do you think? Are you going to the east or the south?"

The chance of freezing to death and starving to the east is too great. Half of the villagers in Gujia Village have already died and cannot afford to die again. Gu Dafu hesitated for a while, gritted his teeth and said with tears in his eyes: "Let's go to the south."

 When they have a career in the south, they can return to their ancestral homeland in Yangji Mansion, which will fulfill his father's wish.

Third Grandpa asked Gu Dashan and Luo's father again what they meant, and after seeing that they both agreed, he said: "In this case, let's go south, but this matter was decided by our family together and has nothing to do with Xiaoyu. If we go Things are not going well in the south, and none of you can blame Xiaoyu.”

As the son of Village Chief Gu, Gu Dafu already regarded himself as the village chief of Gujia Village. When he heard this, he was the first to express his position: "Don't worry, San Bo, we won't blame Xiaoyu."

After hearing this, the third grandpa nodded with satisfaction. Several families said a few words, and after arranging the manpower for the night watch, they spread weeds on the ground and began to rest.

At midnight, Gu Jinli and Luo Huiniang got up and walked into the withered grass when they heard a faint quarrel.

"We agreed to go to Yangji Mansion to find Uncle Liu Shi, why should we go to the south? We have no foundation in the south, so what's the use of going to the south?!" This was Qin Erlang's voice. He was very excited, and his voice was full of anger and Unwilling to do so.

“Second brother, grandpa is right. We don't know what's going on over there with Uncle Liu. If we go there rashly, something might happen. It's better to go to the south first and wait until we've settled down there before sending a message to Uncle Liu.”

“Shut up, I'm not your second brother.” Qin Erlang almost shouted: “It's not your family members who died. Of course you are not in a hurry to take revenge!”

 “Erlang, shut up.” This was Mr. Qin's scolding voice.

　　　Thank you to the small public officials who supported me, okay^0^. PS: Originally there wasn't so much about escaping from famine, but in order to make it more realistic, I added a few chapters. But don't worry, the escape from famine is almost over, and the story of settling down and farming is about to begin.
