Maid, Little Lucky Wife

Chapter 80 Detour

The heavy rain continued all day and all night and did not stop until noon.

Mo Xuan sent someone to check the path ahead, and it turned out that it was blocked by falling rocks, making it impossible to open it in a short time.

Mo Xuan was silent for a while, and then Yun Shang said, "Husband, why don't you take a detour?"

"There was a small road when we came here before. Although it's not as smooth as this one, we might be able to go around it."

Mo Xuan nodded, "Okay, let's go back and take a look."

The convoy was ready and set off quickly. The other road was not far away and everyone had no other choice.

This road is more like a path taken by people. In some places, trees and weeds even need to be cleared.

The carriage was too slow and bumpy, and it was not as fast as a person walking. Everyone got off and walked, including Yun Shang.

Mo Xuan was with her, and Rui'er was holding Yun Shang's hand, and the little person was holding Yun Sang's arm.

Yun Shang raised her head and smiled at the two of them, "Don't worry, I can still walk, you don't need to hold me up."

The big one and the little one looked at each other, silently refusing to let go.

Helpless, everyone could only continue.

They struggled to push the car out of the pit and looked at each other, both of them were embarrassed.

Fortunately, we just explored the road. The road on the opposite side is relatively wide and has many mountains, but they are relatively gentle, and there are roads between the mountains. Otherwise, everyone would have abandoned the car and moved forward.

It's a little south, but there's very little vegetation on the mountain.

The hillside is gentle, and the layers look like they were washed out by rain.

It was the first time Yun Shang saw such a scene. The vegetation was sparse because water could not be stored on the mountain. Rainwater flowed down the hillside, and it was unrealistic to rely on manpower to carry water up the mountain.

It seems that the mountains are far away, and this area is just a plain. The ground is dry and there are not many plants.

The terrain here is too weird, with more mountains and less land. There are floods every year. There is very little land for planting and it is easy to be flooded.

Where there is no water, it is difficult to bring water over. The rainwater left behind by just rain is not enough for plant growth.

Looking at the land but unable to plant it, no wonder there are so many refugees.

The walking speed was too slow, and we only reached the foot of the mountain at night. The rest of the mountain road was undulating and in poor condition.

Everyone felt a sense of powerlessness.

We set up camp at the foot of the mountain. There was enough water in the car. Some people went to explore the road and some made fires for cooking.

As a pregnant woman and a child, she naturally didn't have to work. Mo Xuan only cooked some game when Yun Shang wanted to eat it.

The three of them sat in a row, looking up at the mountains in front of them.

Mo Xuan frowned, thinking about how to increase the production of this land.

"Husband, the land can actually be increased."

Yun Shang's words made Mo Xuan look at her instantly.

Yun Shang only sat on the table in front of her.

"Mountains cannot store water, and the land is not suitable for planting. But the mountains can be dug flat, just like the protruding piece in front. After the top is dug flat, won't it become land after plowing?"

"The side can be dug straight up and down, and trimmed neatly."

"It's like..."

Yun Shang didn't know what words to use to describe it, and racked her brains to describe the shape of the terraces in her mind.

"Like a chessboard?"

Mo Xuan reacted immediately and looked at the mountain in front of him again. His mind was constantly changing, and he muttered to himself, "This can also be made into a field, and a piece of land can be made out there..."

Mo Xuan murmured, his eyes getting brighter and brighter.

"This way we have land, which solves the problem of scarcity of land, and can also store water, but there is not enough rain..."

Mo Xuan's voice became lower and lower, and he raised his head and looked at my wife expectantly.

The lady is so powerful, maybe she can solve the water source problem?

Yun Shang felt ashamed, "We still have to investigate the water source problem before we know what to do!"

Mo Xuan nodded. Once there is a solution, there will always be a way later, right?

Yun Shang was just showing off, thinking of the terraced fields in her memory, but she was really not sure how to lead the water up the mountain.

After a night's rest, when Yun Shang got up, Mo Xuan had already come down from the mountain.

He went to survey the terrain. The view on the mountain was very good. He could see for several miles and even the main road before.

The mountain road is winding, but at the end is the main road.

There were days like this where I couldn't get out at all.

Seeing Mo Xuan, Yun Shang raised a smile and said, "My husband is back, come over for dinner quickly."

Mo Xuan nodded. He was not worried about them, but he was worried about his wife and Rui'er. The wife was pregnant and Rui'er was too young.

After finishing the meal, Mo Xuan said his plan, "Madam, I will hold you and leave first. We will use Qinggong. We will take a few breaks and then we will go out."

Yun Shang's face was full of hesitation, "Will it be too tiring? If it doesn't work, I'll just walk slowly. This road is a bit thrilling, so it should be fine if you walk slowly."

Mo Xuan shook his head and said firmly, "No, they can do it. You must leave with me first, otherwise you will become a drag on the large army."

The mountain road is rugged, and there are even no roads in some places. Mo Xuan, who has roads, also suspects that those people had to dig them out.

Some are so narrow that they even require manual chiseling, which takes too long.

"Na Rui'er..."

"Don't worry, I'll ask someone to take you with me, as well as the midwife, doctor, and grandma. Let's use Qinggong while walking."

After dispelling Yun Shang's last concern, she nodded in agreement.

After eating, everyone set off together. Except for Yun Shang who was being carried, everyone else was being carried on their backs.

When the road is good, walk from the road. When the road is bad, Mo Xuan leads everyone to walk from the mountain.

Even so, when climbing a mountain, everyone has to rest several times.

Everyone carried a few days' worth of food with them and found a place to rest when they were hungry.

Yun Shang wiped Mo Xuan's sweat and handed him the kettle.

Yun Shang said distressedly, "Husband, thank you for your hard work!"

Now she has a double body, which is very heavy. She cannot carry it on her back, but can only hold it. Her arms are sore for a long time.

Mo Xuan nodded, took a deep breath, and then smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine. My husband has plenty of strength."

Knowing that he was comforting her, Yun Shang could only feel sad secretly.

There are few trees on the mountain, no scenery, and no wild animals.

People who fled would not even come here, so some plants were preserved.

While eating, Yun Shang stared at a plant in a daze, thinking to herself, what is this?It seems familiar.

After everyone finished eating and was about to set off, Yun Shang slapped her forehead and suddenly thought of what it was.

"Husband, wait a minute!"

Mo Xuan almost staggered when he was suddenly stopped.

His heart was pounding. If he fell...

He hugged his wife tightly and looked at the little woman in his arms with an unkind expression.

The lady struggled out of his arms, walked to the plant, and stretched out her hand to pull it.

Mo Xuan grabbed her arm, "What do you want this for? Is it a medicinal material?"

Everyone was looking at the person inexplicably at this time, wondering why the lady stopped suddenly.

Yun Shang looked back at them, her eyes full of excitement, "This is food, food that can be used as a staple food to satisfy hunger."
