The two searched around in the dark for a long time, and finally found a mouse hole.

Lin Qiye's face almost broke out from laughter.

Regardless of whether there are seeds in the mouse holes, finding the mouse holes is a good start.

"Sister, there is a mouse hole here. Come here quickly."

Close to Lin Qiye. The two started digging at the entrance of the cave.

As soon as they dug the entrance of the hole, the mouse escaped with a pop. The two of them didn't care about the escaped mouse. They only cared about whether there were seeds and food in the hole.

Not long after, Lin Qiye's hand touched the soft mouse nest.

"Even though this mouse lives in a dark nest, this nest is doing really well."

At least it's better than the current refugees.

The refugees slept in the open air, and the rats at least had a soft nest.

"Don't talk nonsense. Is there any food in it? If not, let's find something else to avoid wasting time."

"Wait a minute, let me touch it."

Ten-year-old Lin Qiye's hands were not big to begin with, and they became even smaller since she no longer had her parents to rely on and had no food to eat.

Lin Qiye touched the mouse hole with her hands and was not worried about touching mouse droppings.

"Sister, it seems there is."

After finishing speaking, he spread out his retracted hand and saw that there was actually a handful of rice in his hand.

However, some are empty shells. It is estimated that the mice ate the rice inside, leaving only the rice husks.

"Sister, can this be used?"

Lin Qiye held her breath and blew onto the rice in her hands, and the empty shells flew out.

"I don't know. It's better to treat a dead horse as a living horse. Plant it first and then talk about it."

He sent the found rice back to space and told Paopao to take good care of it. Then the two of them rested against the tree. I hope in my heart that the rice I found will be grown.

The sky was getting slightly brighter, and the resting refugees began to set off.

Brother and sister Lin Jiuyue were also among the refugees.

"Lin Jiuyue!"

Lin Jiuyue frowned when he heard the familiar voice.

"What a bad luck, why did we run into them?"

Lin Qiye spat, ignored it, and pulled her sister to get into the refugee group.

There were refugees all around, so it was not easy to squeeze in.

"Hey, Lin Qiye, you little brat, why are you running away? Can we still eat you?"

The original owner's lobby brother, Lin Jinshan, chased to Lin Qiye's side, took Lin Qiye's arm, and looked him up and down, left and right.

"Where's your food?"

Lin Qiye was stunned for a moment.

Are these people coming here to grab food?

"Ouch, Lin Jinshan, are you planning to grab food? You made the wrong calculation this time. We have already eaten the little food you gave us."

"By the way, cousin, do you still have any food at home? Lend me and my brother some. The journey is still so far. How can we, my brother and I, walk to the capital without food?"

After hearing this, Lin Jinshan raised his eyebrows.

"That's your business. We agreed at the beginning that if you two take the food, it has nothing to do with our big house."

Lin Qiye sneered.

"Cousin, the little food you gave us is only enough to feed us and my brother and sister for two days. Now that there is no food, we and my brother and I can only starve to death on the road to escape."

Lin Jinshan glanced at Lin Qiye.

"What does it have to do with our big house? Anyway, the food has been given to you. Whether you die of hunger or thirst, it has nothing to do with us."

The two of them were arguing and their faces were red. People around were also whispering.

"Just two days of food? Oh my god, isn't this going to starve people to death?"

"Oh, these two siblings are also pitiful."

"Lin Dongming is too cruel..."

Some of the victims here are from the neighboring village and know Lin Dongming.

The village chief and the villagers from Lijia Village gathered around him. Listening to the people around him pointing fingers at Lin Jinshan, he felt that his face was shameless.

"Lin Jinshan, what are you doing?"

"Uncle Village Chief, my cousin wanted to grab food from us and my brother as soon as he came here. As you know, when we were escaping from famine, my uncle and the others only gave us two days of food. Now we, my brother and I, have almost eaten it. But they still want to steal our food, because they don’t want us siblings to live."

Lin Jiuyue stood next to Lin Qiye, listening to Lin Qiye's 'crying', and couldn't help but twitch the corner of her mouth.

"Village chief, I, I didn't..."

"Shut up!"

The village chief glared at Lin Jinshan.

"Go and call your father over."

The people around him were all villagers from nearby villages. The village chief felt that Lin Jinshan had lost face to him and had no good feelings towards Lin Jinshan at all.

Lin Jinshan was a little unconvinced.

Then I thought about it, my father told me that we were on the run now and we couldn't offend anyone. If we offended the village chief, it would be bad if the village chief kicked the whole family out of the team.

Not long after, Lin Jinshan came over with Lin Dongming and his family.

"Village chief, are you looking for me?"

The village chief has been the chief of Lijia Village for twenty years, and he still has some dignity.

"Lin Dongming, look at the good things your son has done."

After hearing this, Lin Dongming turned to look at Lin Jiuyue and his brother.

The two of them were lowering their heads at the moment, as if they had really suffered some great grievance.

"Village chief, this..."

The village chief was furious and flicked his sleeves.

"Huh, no matter what, the two siblings in Yue Yue are also your nephews and nieces. How do you treat them like this? Is this worthy of your dead brother?"

Lin Dongming was scolded by the village chief and quickly lowered his head to admit his mistake. His attitude should be as sincere as possible.

"Okay, okay, don't say so many useless things. Do you still have food at home? Share some with the siblings in Yue Yue."

Lin Dongming:......

When Lin Jinshan heard what the village chief said, he immediately retorted.

"Village Chief, here, our family doesn't have much food. We don't know where we can get it. If this goes to these two siblings, what will our family do?"

The village chief was already angry, and when he heard Lin Dongming's words, he frowned.

"Lin Dongming, don't forget where your family's food comes from! That food should be shared by Yue Yue and his brother and sister!"

The first and second bedrooms were divided into separate homes, but since Lin Dongyang passed away, the family house was given to Lin Dongming's family for temporary residence. The fields were also planted by Lin Dongming's family.

Due to emotions and reasons, Lin Yue and his brother and sister should share some food.

"Village Chief, I see what you said. Although our family is planting the fields in Dongyang, you also know that due to the drought in the past two years, nothing can be planted in the fields. We have confiscated two grains and the seeds are almost planted... "

The village chief saw that Lin Dongming was so disrespectful.

"Lin Dongming, will you give me the food? If I don't give it to you, you will find your own way out. Don't follow the people in our village. There are no ungrateful people like you in our Lijia Village."

Lin Dongming:......

‘Does this old guy really treat himself like a green onion? If he hadn't been the village chief, his fist would have landed on his head right now! ’
