Chapter 37 Chapter 36
"We passed two villages, and there was no one in the village. It seems that everyone has fled."

What's annoying is that you left as soon as you left, why did you harm the well in the village?
After passing through two empty villages, I saw the dire situation in Tianjia Village. Although I found the most urgently needed water now, Qi Kang'an was getting more and more confused about the future in his heart, and there was still a sense of despair that could not be explained. .

It was brought about by the well water incident, why is there no good person here?
It's not easy for him to tell his father, he can see that his father is also suppressed in his heart, but he has been holding on.

What's more, I can't tell my daughter-in-law and son that they also have no confidence in him. If he shows a little collapse, they have to run one step ahead of him.

For some reason, looking at his daughter, he wanted to chat with her.

It may be because of the girl's calm face since she fled, or it may be because of the girl's history that has never been seen before or since.

In short, he just had an intuition in his heart. When he talked about this with his daughter, the daughter would not be influenced by him even a little bit.

"Isn't this normal, Dad? Sanhe Town has been in chaos for a long time, and we have received the news long ago. The two villages we passed by are under the jurisdiction of Sanhe Town, so they will naturally receive the news earlier. Why don't you run away and wait to die?" ?”

Is it stupid?

[Qi Bao'er can also roughly guess the original intention of those people destroying the well water: you force us to escape, then we will not keep water for you to drink. 】

Qi Kang'an: "..."

See, that's what his daughters do.

If he said this to his father, his father would sigh and say to him: Let's take one step at a time.

If this is said to the daughter-in-law and sons, they will just look at him with tears and ask: Brother An/Father, what should we do?
Where is his daughter?

He was raising his head and looking at him with the eyes of seeing a fool so stupid that he is mentally retarded.

He found that as long as his daughter was awake, this kind of look appeared most frequently, and it seemed that everyone had this kind of look.

He was worried several times that his daughter would be beaten by public wrath.

"Cough cough > <, Bao'er, Dad asked you something, why did you laugh at your sister-in-law Tian when you saw them having dinner last time?"

At first he thought that Bao'er was laughing at their family's poor food, and worried whether their family spoiled Bao'er.

After two days of continuous observation, he found that it wasn't because she could eat better than others, but because she despised others for their poor lives, and she didn't have the problem of tenderness. , her eyes are very normal and normal.

Now Bao'er also showed this expression to himself, thinking of what Bao'er said just now, he can be sure that he misunderstood Bao'er before.

Sure enough, Vu Baoer spit out a few words leisurely, "Put the cart before the horse."

"What do you mean?" It's not that I don't know the meaning of these four words, but I don't understand the connection between them.

Qi Bao'er looked up at the silly father again, and raised his head to look at it from the angle that Qi Kang'an could only look down on, as if rolling his eyes.

"I saw that the man she wanted to push the cart was a bun that was not as big as my fist, half as big as a boy, and half as much as two daughters-in-law. The granddaughter didn't give it to eat, and they all plucked weeds by the roadside to eat.

I know that many people in the village are like this, because there is not much food, it seems that if they save some food, the food they bring can last longer, because the daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law are outsiders, and the girl will marry out in the future, so this Give less or not give at such times, and keep your own people first.

But they forget one thing, what we are escaping is that there are great risks behind us. Whether it is walking all day long or strong laborers pushing carts, it takes a lot of physical strength.

Where does one's physical strength come from?
on food.

Everyone in the world knows a simple truth, you will have strength when you are full.

If they don't eat enough, they will only become more and more boring. In order to keep up with the team, they can only work hard, which will wear down their bodies, and even shorten their lifespan seriously.

Even if all the food we brought is eaten up, there is nothing to be afraid of. What we are fleeing is the disaster of war, not natural disasters. There is no flood or drought. At least we haven’t encountered it yet, have we? "

Qi Baoer pointed to the opposite mountain, "Dad, look at the mountain is lush green, we are in a big gourd surrounded by dense forests, even if there is a drought, it is impossible for those dense forests to die all at once.

As long as there are trees that are not dead, there will be water under the trees. As long as there are forests, there will be wild animals, grass and wild vegetables in the forest.

Okay, even if our woods are too dangerous, is there not much green on our way here?

As for their different treatment of daughter-in-law and granddaughter, I am too lazy to comment. "

Qi Kang'an's eyes brightened the more he listened.

He felt that what his Bao'er said was really reasonable. There is food everywhere in the forest. He dare not go into the forest. There are many foods on the side of the road. Isn't it all supported by wild grasses and vegetables on the roadside?

He was feeling desperate just now, but when he told his daughter, he realized that his worries were completely unfounded, and he was just looking for trouble to add to his troubles.

But Qi Bao'er's last sentence made him feel cold again, and he couldn't say a word for a long time.

He can't say anything about other people's affairs. Nine out of ten households in the village are like this. Boys are treasures, and girls are not even grass.

It is considered righteous to take the baby girl with him when he can escape. He saw that there were not many girls in Tianjia Village just now.

Qi Baoer also knows that this is a very difficult social phenomenon to change. In her previous life, the national economic level was already so high, and there are still many people who value boys over girls. What's more, people here generally think that boys are Can carry on the family line, but the female baby is raised for others.

Even the reality is constantly consolidating this idea. The education of women is to regard the husband as the god, and obey the son when the husband dies.

Qi Baoer also has no intention of changing the general environment. She is not a god, and she doesn't want to go to the trouble of confronting the whole world.It's just that she has seen too much in the past few days, which makes her feel a little bored.

"Father, Sanhe Town is almost here, right?"

Qi Kang'an became dizzy when he heard the head of Sanhe Township, "It's almost here, if you take a rest at night, you can arrive at noon tomorrow, if you don't rest at night, just pack up and leave, then you can arrive at midnight.

What's the matter Boa?

Why did you suddenly mention Sanhe Town?

You forgot the news that Dad heard, Sanhe Town is already in chaos. "

Qi Baoer showed him a mentally retarded look again.

"Father, think about it from another angle, Sanhe Town is bigger than Peifeng Town, and there are more wealthy households in Sanhe Town than Peifeng Town.

It’s true that they got the news early, but dad, you forgot, the richer the people, the more afraid of death, after they get the news, they only want to run away, the sooner the better, life is more important than anything else.

Which rich family has no food in their home?

If you want to escape quickly, you won't let the team be too bulky and slow down the itinerary. Food is a heavy load. Will they take all the food with them?

Wealthy households are not stupid. Would they really bring a large amount of food and make themselves the target of refugees?

No matter how many guards you have, it won't help when there are a lot of refugees.

Father, I think that when they flee for their lives, they should mainly bring banknotes and gold and silver. This is the hope for a comeback. If there is too much food, it may be fatal. "
