After the system ran, I took off with my family

Lin An was chopping firewood in the yard. The family had been boiling water for the past two days.

Lin Shuyue collected the boiled water so that she could drink it on the way.

When he heard Lin Hua's purpose, he put down his hoe and hurriedly followed Lin Hua.

As soon as Lin An entered the house, the village chief stood up excitedly and held Lin An's hand tightly.

"Anzi, Huazi said that the man from the county government office was killed by refugees.

Now refugees are burning, killing and looting everywhere. Our village is not far from the county town.

What should I do, Anzi, do you have any ideas?"

When Lin An heard what the village chief said, he was shocked.

My daughter’s dream only said that everyone would flee from famine in the next few days, but it did not say that the refugees killed their parents.

Lin An lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said to Lin Dayong seriously, "Uncle, this group of refugees is not scary, what is scary is the riot that will follow.

If there is one, there will be another. If others see that the refugees can reap the benefits of doing so, they will surely follow suit, and that will be hell on earth.

According to the current situation, with rising food prices and no water to drink, more people will inevitably take risks. The other six counties under Anqing Prefecture will fall sooner or later. Maybe other counties are already in chaos now.

When the government comes to their senses, they will certainly send troops to suppress the rebellion. But as far as I know, there are only 2,000 soldiers in the city.

If the refugees only knew how to burn, kill and loot, the government might be able to suppress them. But the only thing to worry about is that if a smart leader emerges among the refugees, they may no longer be refugees. "

Lin An’s words frightened Lin Dayong and Lin Hua.

Lin Dayong was about to cry and asked hurriedly: "Anzi, do you have any ideas?"

Lin An shook his head: "I don't have any ideas, uncle, why don't we flee from the famine? The spring water in the mountain is also drying up.

We are waiting to die in the village, and there are also threats from rioting refugees. It is better for us to flee the famine and leave Anqing Prefecture."

When Lin Dayong heard Lin An's words, his expression darkened. Yunhua Village was the place where their ancestors had lived for generations. Did they have to leave their hometown now?

"Dad, Brother Anzi is right. If we don't run away,

Those refugees will arrive in our town soon. I saw many horse-drawn carriages leaving the town today.

They must have heard the news and fled."

Lin Hua was a little anxious and tried hard to persuade his father.

"Okay, Huazi, take the gong and go to the big banyan tree and knock it nine times, then the villagers will come over." Lin Dahai sighed and instructed his son.

"Bang...Bang..."

The villagers were worried at home when they suddenly heard nine gongs.

His face changed and he quickly walked out of the house and rushed to the banyan tree.

In Yunhua Village, the village chief would notify everyone by beating a gong to gather under the big banyan tree.

If it knocks nine times in a row, it means the matter is urgent.

Under the big banyan tree, people wearing worn cotton-padded jackets stood in the cold wind, with their hands in their pockets, stamping their feet, and whispering to each other, wondering if there was a solution to the problem of the refugees.

Lin An's family was also under the tree, standing with Grandma Xiuyin's family and Aunt Cui'e's family. Everyone in the village, except children or bedridden people, came.

When Lin Dayong saw everyone gathered, he announced a piece of news that shocked everyone.

"Village chief, are we really going to flee from the famine? Maybe it will rain in a few days."

The person who spoke was Lin Tieshan, who did not want to escape from the famine.

Fleeing famine is too hard. He has a crazy old mother and he is the only adult male in the family. If he flees famine, he will be so tired.

Lin Tieshan's mother was Shi Chunxi, who had been given a nightmare talisman by Lin Shuyue before.

Under the torment of the nightmare talisman, within less than a month, he started to have mental problems and kept muttering about ghosts every day.

The Third Uncle, leaning on his cane, stood beside Lin Dayong and said seriously, "I know that everyone is reluctant to leave Yunhua Village.

Our ancestors have lived here for generations, and suddenly we have to leave our hometown. I can understand how you feel.

But the situation is not optimistic now. It is not just a problem of lack of water.

Dayong just told me about the situation. The refugees were rioting, burning, killing and looting everywhere.

Maybe they will come to us tomorrow. What can we do then? Can we defeat those refugees?"

When everyone heard what Third Uncle said, they swallowed back what they were about to say. Even though they were reluctant, they agreed to the decision to flee the famine.

"Uncle San, Village Chief, where are we going?" a villager asked.

"Why don't we go to the capital? The emperor will not care about us, the people who are suffering from the disaster."

Lin Dayong and his uncle exchanged a glance, and then he comforted him: "The most important thing for us now is to escape from Anqing Prefecture first.

As for whether to go to the capital or not, we will discuss it later."

Seeing that no one had any objections, he reminded them again: "After breakfast tomorrow morning, gather at the village entrance on time.

Everyone go back now and pack your things quickly. Take what you should take and don't take what you shouldn't take.

Don't let that cause trouble for others, you hear me?"

Everyone nodded and hurried home to pack their things.

On the way home, Lin An looked at Li and hesitated to speak. After Li asked again and again,

He stammered, "Runiang, do you want to send something to my parents?

Should we also tell them about the escape from famine?"

Upon hearing this, Li's gentle expression immediately darkened: "No need, they don't treat me as their own child anyway.

They themselves said that a daughter who is married off is like spilled water. I don’t have a mother’s home.”

Li also grew up in misery. She was not liked by her parents since she was a child.

Her father Li Shan and mother Zhang Chunhua both favor sons over daughters and believe that once a daughter is raised, she will belong to another family.

Not to mention the suffering and sins I endured as a girl, even after getting married, on the day I returned to my parents' home,

Her mother Zhang Chunhua stood at the gate of the yard and told her clearly,

Once a daughter is married off, she is like water spilled on the ground. They accepted the betrothal gifts,

If she marries into the Lin family, then she, Li Yuru, will have no relationship with the Li family and will not be allowed to visit the Li family in the future.

Li will never forget how devastated and humiliated she was at that time.

She even thought that her mother's words would make Lin An look down on her.

But she was very glad that she met Lin An.

After hearing what his mother-in-law said, Lin An, who was usually honest and taciturn, argued with her with a red face.

Finally, he even said something harsh, saying that you don’t care about Li Yuru, but I, Lin An, do.

When Li thought of this, her expression improved a little. Lin Shuyue's brother and sister, who were walking behind, looked at each other.

Lin Shuyue also couldn't understand what her grandparents were thinking.

Seeing that Li's expression had eased a little, Lin An explained, "Runiang, I'm afraid you'll regret it later."

Li shook her head and said nothing.

Seeing this, Lin Shuyue quickly changed the subject: "Mom and Dad, Big Brother and Second Brother, let's go home quickly. I have something good for you."

Lin Shuyue's words aroused the curiosity of the whole family.

Li didn't think about those messy things.
