Chen hurriedly pushed the paper bag back, "just take a look. Take something back quickly."

Shanzi's mother insisted on pushing back, "I'm an aunt. What's the matter with Xiao Fei's brown sugar? Don't push it. I won't enter your house after pushing it again."

"Xiao Fei is in the inner room. Let me have a look."

Shanzi's mother opened the curtain and came in.

Gu Fei was lying on the Kang, raised his face and smiled at her, "Aunt Huang."

"Yo, look at Xiaofei. She hasn't seen me for so many years and still recognizes me. No wonder Aunt Huang is talking about you in her heart."

"Are you better?"

Gu Fei nodded.

Shanzi's mother said with concern, "you're leaving the day after tomorrow. Is your injury in the way?"

Chen followed in, "no way. I said I had to wait a few days until she was well hurt. The village head has set the time. It's hard to postpone."

"Anyway, either take the bus or her father and several brothers take turns to carry it."

Shanzi's mother hurriedly said, "speaking of escaping from famine, I really don't have a backbone in my heart."

"The mountain's father is gone again. We are orphans and widows. If something happens on the way, we don't know how to deal with it."

Chen's eyes flashed, understood her purpose and said with a smile, "what's the matter? You're not on your own. You guys go together. If you encounter anything, everyone must take care of it."

Shanzi's mother hurriedly said, "I heard that few families are willing to go, except the village head, the three brothers of your family, and old Zhang."

"They all want to survive this winter. When spring comes next year, if there is rain, they can grow food. As long as they can grow food, they are not afraid of anything."

Chen Shi asked, "that's also true. I also said to go in the spring, but my Xiaofei said that everything recovers in the spring. The insects come out. It's the easiest to have a plague. We have to go quickly."

Shanzi's mother's eyes flickered. It turned out that Xiao Fei came out of Hou's house. She has insight.

"By the way, have you made up your mind?"

Shanzi's mother nodded, "I discussed with Shanzi. Let's go."

"I thought, you and the village head are the two most knowledgeable and understanding people in the village. You have to go, so we'll follow you."

Gu Fei listened and laughed on the Kang. Shanzi's mother is really a sensible person.

I don't know what to do. It depends on what smart people do. Just do it. This is the wisdom of life.

Chen patted her hand. "Don't worry too much. My old man also found a guide to follow him. He said he was a former bodyguard and had been to the south."

Shanzi's mother was happy. "Really? It would cost a lot of money to invite such a person."

Chen's enigmatic smile did not say.

Shanzi's mother whispered, "I bought a mule cart. I'll be right behind your house."

Chen smiled, "OK, just follow. There's nothing else in my family. There are many children. If you can't go up the slope or need a hand, just shout."

That's what Shanzi's mother is waiting for. "Then I won't be polite to you."

The two women laughed.

In the blink of an eye, it was the morning of departure.

At Mao, Chen got up and called everyone in his family up one by one.

"Hurry up, pack up the quilts and get on the carriage."

Gu Fei was still in a dream, and his quilt was swept away by his mother.

Lanzhi pushed her desperately, "Xiao Fei, get up and start."
