It's too hard to escape famine, don't be afraid! The evil mother-in-law has a system

After the Gu family's tent was set up, Lin Dahong cut a piece of wild boar and added the leftover mushrooms from yesterday, stewed it in a big pot, and then steamed a big pot of rice.

Although not very rich, but with hot broth and rice, it is not bad.

Shitou and the other six people also ate with the Gu family. Because it was too cold, Li Wei also let them sleep in Gu Boss's tent. Fortunately, the tent was big enough to accommodate them.

Shitou and the others were very grateful. In this Nima mountain forest, sleeping outside at night is not a sound sleep at all.

After dinner, the rain gradually subsided. Li Wei checked the time, but it was just before four o'clock. She and Mo Yujue went to explore the road ahead. Shitou and the others went to pick mushrooms nearby to see if there was anything else. Eat, good as tomorrow's rations.

Mo Yujue held a machete, and cut down the grass and small trees in front of him as he walked. The two of them went north, and occasionally met some people who were also fleeing famine, but they were all in groups, some were from a family, and some were from a single family. village.

About two hours later, the two walked back, Li Wei dug some Polygonum multiflorum, there is only a lot of medicine in the deep mountains, and Polygonum multiflorum is at least a hundred years old.

Li Wei took out a basket of mountain eggs from the system and brought them back, saying that they were picked up in the mountains, and asked Lin Dahong to steam the egg custard, and each of them had a bowl, which was regarded as an extra meal for everyone.

After eating the egg custard beautifully, the wind gradually picked up, and after a while, the wind howled violently, and it was scary to hear it in the tent.

Li Wei thought of the Chen family. When they came back from exploring the road, the Chen family probably realized that it was unrealistic to spend the night here, so they all moved away. As for where to move, Li Wei didn't care.

The next day, at dawn, a few people walked out of the tent, looking at the past, it was devastated, many trees in the forest were uprooted, and many people froze to death due to the strong wind at night.

After the Gu family ate breakfast, Li Wei boiled some herbal medicine to remove moisture and prevent wind and cold, and everyone drank a bowl before packing up and setting off.

The good news is that the rain has stopped, so you don’t have to go on your way in the rain anymore. At o’clock in the morning, the sun came out, the temperature rose a lot, and everyone’s mood became more sunny.

Not far away, there was a burst of crying from the front. Gu Laoer stepped forward to inquire about the news. It turned out that the wind was too strong last night, some people were frozen to death, and some people were crushed to death by fallen trees. It looks a little miserable.

Li Wei sighed. On the way to escape from the famine, dead people are the norm. It has only been a few days since I entered the mountain, and if I can't persist, the road ahead will only become more and more difficult.

Although the Gu family has seen a lot during this journey, they are still a little depressed, and they have not been away for a long time.

The maid of the Chen family, Xiao Qing, came over crying, and knelt down in front of Li Wei.

"Madam, please help us, please, because you don't want us to enter your tent, four of us were frozen to death last night, and our young lady was also sick."

Lin Dahong, who had been quiet all the time, was very dissatisfied when he heard this: "You guys are not well prepared, so how can you blame us for not helping you now that something happened."

Xiaoqing opened her eyes and defended herself: "I don't blame you, but you can help us, why don't you want to help?"

Li Wei didn't know what face Xiaoqing had to criticize, and they didn't have the obligation to help them.

"Girl, your young lady and young master are not my responsibility. I am not related to you, so why should I help you?"

"Our young lady is the granddaughter of the Grand Tutor. She is well educated and reasonable. If you help us, you will definitely repay us twice in the future." Xiaoqing said quickly.

Li Wei: "I don't need your thanks, so don't force me to help you."

"Why are you so cruel?" Seeing that Li Wei didn't show any affection, Xiaoqing's eyes gradually showed hatred.

Li Wei: "We just met by chance, and there is no friendship."

"you"

"Xiaoqing, stop talking."

Chen Manman came over with a pale face, and looked at Li Wei with an apologetic expression.

"Madam Gu, I'm sorry, I was the one who disciplined her improperly. Xiaoqing's request is really rude, so just pretend you didn't hear it."

Li Wei glanced at her, and said coldly: "I know it's rude, so don't let her say the same thing again in the future."

Chen Manman said with embarrassment on his face.

"We really didn't prepare enough for our trip this time. We thought we would be reunited with our family in a few days, but we knew that there were some accidents on the way, so we got into a predicament. In short, Xiaoqing was also worried about me, and she didn't do well. , I apologize to you."

After hearing Chen Manman's explanation, Li Wei didn't say anything, just nodded and left.

Xiaoqing looked at Li Wei's ruthless back, her eyes were filled with displeasure.

"Miss, this man has a heart of stone, without any mercy."

Chen Manman clenched his fists tightly. They didn't bring enough food and warm clothes. If they didn't join their families, they wouldn't be able to survive in a few days.

At this time, the two young masters of the Chen family also stepped forward.

"If we still can't get in touch with our family today, it's the last resort."

Seeing that Chen Manman was still silent, the young master of the Chen family comforted him: "Manman, the premise of kindness is that we must survive."

Li Wei was walking on the road, thinking that the Chen family was not in a good mood, the young master and the young lady didn't prepare anything when they went out, and they took a group of people with them, looking safe, but they all became waste in this mountain forest.

"Then the Chen family is troublesome." Mo Yu said when he came to Li Wei's side without knowing when.

"why?"

Inky: "They didn't bring anything, and now they don't even have any food. Last night, the two followers went to catch a few snakes and brought them back to eat."

Li Wei was curious: "They brought such a large group of people, and I think there are a lot of salutes. What did they bring without food?"

The ink was insane: "When books, musical instruments, flowers, money, etc. were at the foot of the mountain, I lost ten pots of flowers carefully planted by the young master Chen Zhuo of the Chen family, and half of the books of the second young master Chen Chao were also lost. It is best to carry them up the mountain." There are three boxes of books."

"Miss Chen Jiasan likes to play the piano. There are only dozens of Guqin handed down in the family. She took them with her when she left this time. Because the carriages on the mountain cannot travel together, she lost half of them in the end and took five with her."

"But last night because it was too cold and there was not enough firewood, the Chen family burned two boxes of books and two guqins."

Li Wei suddenly didn't know what to say. She brought books and a piano with her when fleeing from disaster, but she didn't bring food. She didn't know whether she should admire her or not.
"It sounds miserable, but there are many people who are worse than them on the way to escape from famine. At least they have so many servants."

"Because there are so many people, they will try to rob others."

In other words, the Chen family is likely to rob the Gu family, and Li Wei will not comment on this kind of incident that did not happen, but since the escape, she has never let down her guard.

"Then everyone be alert, we are not easy to bully."

"Help, help." There was a sudden scream from ahead.
