All Heavens Pension started from the fiery era

Chapter 311. 311. Walking in Silence

The pot of fish soup was boiled for an hour and a half, and several children were drooling around the pot.

"Jiaying Niang, can you taste if the fish bone is rotten? I reckon it should be rotten." The old lady said to the sister-in-law.

The sister-in-law lifted the lid, took a bite of the spine spine and tasted it, "It's pretty rotten, you can eat it."

"Then let's eat, let's see how many children are greedy. If they don't eat any more, their saliva will dry up."

When the old lady spoke, the children suddenly cheered.

The sister-in-law first filled the old lady with less than half a bowl of fish, and then filled a bowl of soup.

Putting this bowl of fish meat in front of the old lady, the sister-in-law said solemnly:
"Grandma, today's bowl of fish, you have to eat it yourself, no one can give it to you.

A few days ago, when you drank porridge, you drank all the rice soup, and you secretly gave Jiaying and Jiamin the few rice grains that were not much.

If you hadn't enjoyed the blessings when you were young and had a good physical foundation, you would have fallen down by now.

This can no longer be the case in the future, Wenxuan is capable, and with these catches, we can persist for a long time.

No matter when, our family must be complete, and no one can be left behind.

You are the ancestor of our family and the backbone of our family, let alone fall down early. "

The old lady said cheerfully: "Okay, I'll listen to you. I will eat this bowl of fish today, and no one will give it to me."

Two days ago, the old lady felt that there was no hope, so she naturally wanted to leave the chance of survival to her children, and live by herself day by day.

Now that there is hope of living again, the old lady is indescribably happy.

Yue Wenxuan was ranked after the old lady, and there was almost as much fish in the bowl as the old lady.

Yuejia Shi had to pull the cart, and he put in the most effort, so his sister-in-law gave him the most meat.

I made fish soup for several children, and there was not much meat left in the pot.

The old lady said to her sister-in-law: "I am old and have a small appetite. I can't eat so much. You bring the bowl and I will give you some."

Of course the sister-in-law would not accept it, "You have to eat if you can't eat it, and it's rare to eat something nutritious, so don't let it come and go.

The meat in my bowl is not small, plus a large bowl of fish soup, it is rare to have a full meal, and I am very happy in my heart. "

Seeing the sister-in-law's insistence, the old lady had no choice but to stop her thoughts, "Let's eat."

The children waited for the old lady to say this, and started to drink the soup sizzlingly, regardless of the fact that the soup in the bowl was still hot.

The old lady picked up the bowl and took a sip. After eating the delicious fish soup, she felt warm all over her body.

The whole family ate with gusto, and it looked like they were enjoying delicacies.

Only Yue Wenxuan couldn't swallow it.

This was his first meal in this life, he never got tired of eating in the previous life, so of course he couldn't get used to it for a while.

Fortunately, the body he took over was still in a state of extreme hunger. The body's thirst for food suppressed the picky taste buds.

No matter how good my sister-in-law's fish stewing skills are, this method of stewing fish will definitely not taste good.

The internal organs are mixed in the fish soup, so there is naturally a bitter taste. Without any seasoning, not even salt, the fishy smell is definitely inevitable.

As early as more than a month ago, the salt I brought was exhausted. Since then, the whole family has lived a salt-free life.

Salt is an essential substance for the human body, whether it is bitter or fishy, ​​Yue Wenxuan can tolerate it, but without the salty taste, it is really difficult to swallow.

After eating this rare delicacy on the way to escape from famine, everyone had something in their stomachs, and their mental outlook improved a lot.

After taking a break, Yue Wenxuan said, "Let's go, let's go to Tianshui Village. If things go well, our family will be reunited again at noon."

"It's really great. I can't bear to miss my eldest sister. I miss her very much these days."

Yue Jiamin grabbed Yue Wenxuan's arm with both hands, and begged:

"Fourth Uncle, after redeeming Eldest Sister this time, no matter how difficult the future life will be, let's never sell Eldest Sister again, okay?"

Yue Jiamin is the son of his sister-in-law, two years younger than his eldest sister, and is 13 years old this year.

Suffering makes people grow up. Although Yue Jiamin is still young, he already looks like a young adult.

Yue Wenxuan rubbed his eldest nephew's head, and said in a very solemn tone:

"Okay, fourth uncle promises you, no matter how difficult the future is, our family will never sell anyone again, and no one will sell!"

Fourth uncle spoke to him with such a solemn tone, Yue Jiamin was very happy, not only because fourth uncle agreed to his request, but also because he felt the importance from fourth uncle's tone.

Although the fourth uncle treated him very well in the past, he always treated him like a child. He had never treated him like an adult like he is now.

Ever since many relatives were killed by devils, Yue Jiamin longed for him to grow up earlier. Only when he grows up can he have the ability to take revenge and make more contributions to the family.

Especially after his elder sister was sold, he hated himself even more for being useless and for being too young. He obviously didn't want his elder sister to be sold out like this, but he could do nothing about it.

Yue Wenxuan really attaches great importance to this eldest nephew. Although he is only 13 years old, he is not too young in this difficult time.

Besides, his eldest nephew also went to school, and he is very smart. Although he was interrupted several times due to natural disasters and man-made disasters, he still has the level of graduating from elementary school.

Cultivate and cultivate well, and you should be able to achieve some achievements in the future.

When it comes to starting, everyone moves quickly.

After more than 80 days of fleeing famine, everyone has become accustomed to how to quickly pack their luggage and how to quickly escape from danger and flee to a distant place.

The old lady got in the car first and sat in the front, and the packed pots and pans were placed behind him.

13-year-old Yue Jiamin was sitting in the back of the shelf car.

He can't sit in the car all the time. When he is tired, he can sit up for a while, and when he is not tired, he can get down and walk along. When he encounters an uphill road, he has to get down and push along with him.

After all the luggage was moved to the car, the 12-year-old second nephew Yue Jiaying and the eight-year-old niece Yue Xiangfang also got into the car and sat on both sides of the old lady.

Although Yue Jiaying was only one year younger than Yue Jiamin, she was half a head shorter than him, with a thin stature and little strength.

Everyone's request to Yue Jiaying is not to ask him for help, as long as he doesn't make trouble and can take care of himself.

After a final check, it was true that no luggage had been left behind, and Yue Wenxuan shouted, "Let's go!"

"Sit down, let's go..."

After Yue Jiashi ate a big bowl of fish, he felt that he had inexhaustible strength, so he easily pulled the cart and strode forward.

Yue Wenxuan and sister-in-law followed the scooter, pushing it from time to time.

Yue Jiashi shouted in front: "Auntie, Fourth Uncle, you two don't need to push, I have enough strength now, so I can pull it all the way to Tianshui Village without any problem."

"That's fine, we won't push. If you are tired, just say a word, and I will replace you."

Yue Wenxuan followed the van on the left with his hands empty, talking to the old lady from time to time.

"Grandma, you still have the foresight, fortunately you stopped my sister-in-law from binding her feet.

If my sister-in-law also has bound feet and cannot walk a long distance, it will be even more difficult for us on this journey. "

Speaking of this matter, the old lady was very proud, "It is also thanks to your sister-in-law and your elder brother who made a baby marriage since they were young, so I dare to come forward to make this decision.

Otherwise, even if the two families are family friends, I can't talk too much about this matter. "

Recalling the binding of feet when I was a child, my sister-in-law is even more fortunate.

She said next to her: "Although I was young at that time, the incident of foot binding was so impressive that I couldn't forget it even if I wanted to, and it is still fresh in my memory.

I remember the day when my grandma came to visit my house, I was suffering from a high fever and felt uncomfortable everywhere, but I still felt that the pain in my feet was more unbearable.

Seeing my pitiful appearance, my grandma made the decision to loosen my feet and said that I would not need to bind them anymore.

She also said that it is good to have a pair of natural feet, and she can work neatly. She likes such a granddaughter-in-law, and she will never dislike her. "

The old lady answered, "You didn't bind your feet, although I have a little credit, but the main reason is that your father and mother love you.

If it weren't for the two of them not wanting you to endure hardship, even if I said this, it would be useless. "

"My parents definitely love me, but if there is no grandma for you to speak, no matter how hard I cry, they will not dare to let me grow a pair of heavenly feet."

Recalling this past event, in the sister-in-law's heart, the painful experience of bound feet has gradually faded away, but this warmth has always remained in her heart.

"I have to be grateful for this matter, I really have to thank grandma for being enlightened.

Even if our family has such a relationship, making this decision at that time would definitely be criticized by others. " Yue Wenxuan said.

"It's true that I have suffered some pressure, but the country people live their lives behind closed doors, pretending not to hear, and it's over.

It is also because your sister-in-law is blessed that when the feet were bound, the Qing Dynasty was already dead, and the customs of the Republic of China were much more enlightened, so I dared to make this decision.

If it was a few years ago, I really wouldn't dare to say that. "The old lady told the truth.

For the first half an hour, I walked on a small road, and I only occasionally met a few pedestrians on the road.

But when the group of people turned onto the main road, everyone's mood became heavy again.

Most of the disaster victims from east to west have to pass through this main road. If you look around, you can't see the end of the disaster victims in ragged clothes and supporting the old and the young.

Yue Wenxuan and others walked against the mainstream of the victims, and passed by the emaciated and emaciated victims one by one. The helplessness, misery, and despair that spread from all the victims made people feel sour and heavy. .

Yue Wenxuan's family was no longer in the mood to speak, and they all kept their heads down, not daring to look at the victims they met too much, wishing they could arrive at Tianshui Village sooner.

The old lady subconsciously took out a piece of ragged clothes, and covered the fish that were already tightly wrapped with the ragged clothes again.

The family walked for more than 80 days on the road to escape from the famine, and they are no longer ignorant when they first set off.

During this time, they have encountered all kinds of things.

Some of them happened to their own family members, and some of them were what they saw or heard. These lessons are deeply engraved in the depths of their memory, and they dare not forget them even if they want to.

If anyone dares to make the same mistake a second time, his property will be taken away, and his life may not be saved.

Most of the victims carried their hands on their shoulders, helping the old and the young, and moved forward with difficulty.

For a slightly wealthier family, it will be much easier to have a wheelbarrow to push the luggage.

Like the Yue family, it is rare to have a two-wheeled frame car.

The shelf cart can pull a lot of things, and it is more labor-saving, but the cost is high, and ordinary families must not be able to afford it.

Going forward, you will see many people, and occasionally you will see families driving a carriage.

A family that can own a carriage is naturally not an ordinary family, but even for such a wealthy family, the clothes on their bodies are just a little neater, and the people on the carriage are also pale and emaciated, with dull eyes.

At the moment of life and death of the whole nation, in the face of such a catastrophe, the wealthier families can only hold on for a while. In the rolling tide, the final result is not much better than that of ordinary disaster victims.

As a human being, Yue Wenxuan IV has seen much sorrow and life and death, but at this time he witnessed the despair and numbness of the endless victims, and the compassion and anger in his heart could no longer be suppressed.

He wished he could go to the front line to kill the enemy now!
Let this devastated country return to normal order as soon as possible; let this troubled nation realize independence and freedom one day sooner; let these hardworking and kind-hearted people in front of us live and work in peace and contentment one day sooner.

But there's not much he can do.

Due to the constraints of the system, it is destined that he can only be a spectator of an era, but not the leader and leader of the era.

For the entire era, some trivial details, he can make some changes, but it is limited to this.

He can't do anything about changes in the general direction, or changes in historical events.

If he dared to have such an ambition, he might be able to do it with his current ability, but it was meaningless.

Because even if he can make it, what he changed will not become real history, and he will inevitably be forced to drive away by the system, ending this journey early.

If he wants to change the world, he can only make efforts within the scope allowed by the framework.

The family walked eastward for two hours in silence, and finally saw a fruit forest with a size of six or seven mu.

Yue Jiashi quickened his pace again, turned his head and said to Yue Wenxuan, "Fourth Uncle, let's go south from this fruit forest, and we will reach Tianshui Village in an hour."

"Are you tired now, do you want me to pull the car instead?"

"No need, fourth uncle. You have been in a coma for so many days, and you just woke up today. You must be bored.

I don't have any other skills, but I have great strength. After eating such a big bowl of fish in the morning, I can pull it all day without any problem. "

Yue Wenxuan had just taken over this body, and he really didn't have much strength in him, so it would take a while to improve his physical fitness before he could see the effect.

Since Tianshui Village is not far away, he will not try his best.

Yue Jiashi looked like he was walking with strides, and he really didn't look very tired.
