My whole family time-traveled! I became a god during my exile in a famine.

Feeling humiliated, Liu Ergou flew into a rage, shouting, "You think you're so great? You think you can take three kids with you?"

"Yes, I don't want my children to die with me, so I can only keep moving forward and find a way to survive."

"I told you, you silly woman, aren't you stupid? If you go with them now, what if there's no water ahead?"

"Besides, my brothers all said that as soon as that group of people leaves, we'll move into the woods."

“Think about it, that’s a forest. Maybe we can find some fruit or leaves to eat on the trees. How come it won’t last more than a month? Instead of following along aimlessly, we should wait for the people ahead to scout the way before we follow their footprints.”

Er Gou's wife glared angrily at her husband, "Your brother, your brother, you only ever listen to what your brother says. Do you know they're harming us? Do you think these people are smarter than those nobles in the forest?"

"Why would those nobles leave this place? They must have their own reasons. As for us incompetent people, we should just follow those who are capable! If you listen to your drinking buddies, you'll die on the road sooner or later."

Liu Ergou was so angry that he started to thrash around, took off his smelly shoes and tried to smash his wife. Ergou's wife grabbed her three trembling children and stormed off toward the village chief of Xiagoutou Village.

“Village chief, I’ve signed up with my three children to go with everyone.”

"Er Gou's wife, you're leaving with the baby? What about your husband?"

"If he wants to live with his brother, then so be it. Now, life and death are entirely up to his own abilities, and he can't care about anything else."

Liu Ergou chased after them for a few steps, but seeing that his wife and children had gone to the village chief's side, he had no choice but to give up in frustration.

Inside the six-person tent next to the wooden house, Xin Wanrou said to Xin Wanqing with a face full of guilt, "Eldest sister, I've caused everyone trouble these past two days. I didn't expect my body to be so useless. As soon as I relaxed, I immediately fell ill and couldn't help with anything."

"Don't talk nonsense." Xin Wanqing handed her a bowl of rice porridge, rolled her eyes at her, "We're all sisters, don't say such empty things. You, just relax and get better soon."

"Now that we're all together as a family, what difficulties can't we overcome? Don't worry, Sixth Sister is here for you."

Xin Wanrou smiled slightly upon hearing this.

She realized that these past few days, her mother, sisters, and cousins ​​had been constantly mentioning her sixth sister, which showed that her sixth sister was indeed incredibly formidable.

Indeed, she had personally witnessed her sixth sister suppress all the refugees of Fengzhou on the spot with a single sword strike without blinking.

Among those people, there were quite a few restless ones.

Xin Wanqing tucked her sister's messy hair behind her ear and said with a smile, "You're not feeling well, so don't take a bath yet. I'll get you some hot water today. Go to my room, wipe yourself down a bit, and change into some clean, refreshing undergarments. If you feel more comfortable, your illness will subside faster."

Xin Wanrou's eyes reddened slightly. "Thank you, big sister."

"Stop with the formalities. Alright, hurry up and drink your porridge. Xinxin is much healthier than you. He's already full of energy and jumping around today. I'll carry him over and feed him the porridge. You can drink it yourself without worry."

Meanwhile, Xin Nian was respectfully invited over by Madam Nie to take the pulse of her second daughter-in-law.

"Erlang's wife is quite far along in her pregnancy, but her appetite has been a bit poor these past few days; she keeps vomiting whatever she eats. Sixth Sister, could you take a look at your aunt and see if there's something wrong?"

After taking Mei Zhuqing's pulse, Xin Nian patted her hand and said, "It's nothing serious, don't be nervous."

As he spoke, he rummaged through his space, took out a few packets of medicine, opened them, grabbed some perilla leaves, dried tangerine peel, and other ingredients, and prepared ten servings of soup.

"These are all pre-baked. Make a cup every day according to this amount, and I guarantee you'll be free of morning sickness and full of energy."

Mei Zhuqing smiled and took Xin Nian's hand, saying, "Sixth Sister, I don't know how to thank you enough."

Xin Nian smiled at her, "Second sister-in-law is in very good health. Just don't worry too much. The pregnancy is very stable. Trust me, she's perfectly healthy." "Yes, yes, I trust Sixth Sister."

Madam Nie was overjoyed and readily agreed that she would be in charge of making hot water for her daughter-in-law from now on.

The three chatted for a few more minutes, and then Nie smiled and saw Xin Nian out of the wooden house.

Over at the large tent, Old Xin was surrounded by the menacing Marquis of Lin'an, Imperial Censor Yan, and Duke Jiang, who were berating him with barbs and sticks.

He was somewhat confused by what he heard, and pushed away the excited hand of the Marquis of Lin'an, saying, "What are you all doing, making such a fuss over here? Haven't I already given the notice? We're leaving the day after tomorrow. Whether you stay or leave is up to you."

"Brother Wenyuan, we haven't offended you before, have we? Why won't you let us join your Starshine Corps?"

"Oh, I'm sorry. The Starshine Club is currently full and cannot accept any more members."

"Then why did you accept the entire Marquis of Dingxing's family? Did I drink too little with you before, or is the Marquis of Dingxing's relationship with our two families much stronger? Don't forget, back then..."

"Back then what!" Xin Wenyuan said irritably, swatting away the arm that the Marquis of Lin'an was poking around with. "Back then, when your family saw that we had offended the dog emperor, they immediately turned their backs on us!"

"Is that true or not?" Old Xin rolled his eyes and asked. "We're already being very generous by letting you settle in our camp!"

"Don't make any other unreasonable requests! We won't grant them even if you do."

Marquis Lin'an immediately deflated like a punctured balloon, his shoulders drooping.

"Make way, make way, make way." Marquis Dingxing walked over with a smile and haphazardly pushed aside the people blocking his way.

Xin Wenyuan got a headache just looking at this spoiled old man.

"Why did you come back instead of packing your things?"

"I'm here to report to you, aren't I?" Marquis Dingxing said with a grin, putting his arm around Old Xin's shoulder, only to be rejected and thrown away by the latter.

"Let's go inside the tent and talk."

Marquis Dingxing turned around and happened to see Xin Nian. He was even more pleased and waved to her, "Eldest niece, come, come over here."

"What do you mean by 'not Marquis of Dingxing'? I haven't finished speaking to Brother Wenyuan yet!"

"What are you talking about? Lu Yong, don't be shameless and brazen. My brother Wen Yuan has already been kind enough by letting you stay here for a while! What else do you want? Don't be like your short-sighted wife. People should know how to be content."

"Don't forget the lesson of the Lü family, and that Jiang Susu! Don't piss my brother Wen Yuan off, or your whole family will be kicked out of the camp!"

Marquis Lin'an was furious. His face turned red and his neck thickened as he glared at Marquis Dingxing, who dragged Xin Wen away.

Contentment? Marquis Lin'an clenched his fists tightly, his heart filled with waves of regret.

Humans can never be satisfied with the status quo.

Just like him, even though he knew that his family had a falling out with the Duke of Xin's family, he still couldn't help but think that maybe Xin Wenyuan, with his silly and carefree nature, wouldn't hold it against his family.

Joining the Starshine Guild would guarantee his family's safety, so he couldn't give it up.
