A Husband Who Traveled Through the Famine and Developed a Chronicle

The reason why I didn't guess it was my sister-in-law was because the two girls were wearing women's hair buns, so they were obviously married.

Married aunts mostly follow their husband's family, and generally do not live with their mother's family.

Pay attention to a daughter who is married off, and the water that is poured out.

Judging from the situation in Wu County, this family is probably the one who was arrested by the government because they couldn't pay the grain tax.

"Master, we don't have much water left"

"Although the government has provided food, there is no water. What should I do?"

Yu Chunhua pinched the grain bag, and looked at the bamboo tubes that everyone brought with them. They drank less and less water, and now they were cooking again. There was not enough water for this idea.

"Leave it alone, cook the meal, let's talk after this meal"

"Father and mother have been hungry for two days, and if there is nothing to eat, I'm afraid..." The man's voice was muffled, and his eyes turned red when he looked at the second elder who was resting on the straw mat with his eyes closed.

Yu Chunhua also felt uncomfortable, so she had to take the rice and cook it in the pot without washing it.

I didn't dare to turn on the fire, for fear of drying up the water, so I could only cook it slowly on a low fire until all the rice in the pot was cooked, and the family shared half a bowl for each person.

Not many.

Although there are ten catties of rice, who knows how far Quanzhou is. If it weren't for the rush, one person and one bowl would be considered good.

Even so, one and a half catties of ten catties of rice went away. If this continues, the rice won't last long.

Yu Chunhua was so worried that she panicked, and before she lay down for a while after eating, she felt suffocated.

"Head of the house, you look at it, I will come as soon as I go"

She didn't say anything, but the man seemed to know, he just waved his hand and told her to come back quickly.

Their house was originally at the back of the line, it was convenient, so Yu Chunhua naturally walked as far as possible, and after making sure no one would see her, she let go of her pants to solve the problem.

And the opportunity that Bai Xia had been waiting for came before him.

It wasn't until after Yu Chunhua finished solving and walked forward for a certain distance that she suddenly stepped forward, jumped up from behind, covered Yu Chunhua's mouth, and pushed her down to the ground. placed on her neck.

"do not move"

A low and hoarse voice came from Bai Xia's mouth, as if someone had scalded his throat. It was a man's voice.

And Yu Chunhua was lying on the ground at the moment, her eyes were wide open looking at the person in front of her who was covered tightly with only one pair of eyes exposed, the kitchen knife on her neck made her dare not move, only one pair of eyeballs could not move. Turning around.

"Listen, I have rice in my hand, but I need you to buy it with money, or exchange it with something"

"You don't have much water, do you?"

"I'm afraid there will be no water to cook in the back"

"It's still a long way to go to Quanzhou. If you don't have food, you can't get to Quanzhou."

"Look, this is my rice. A bowl of rice is worth ten renminbi, and you can get a catty of rice to pay for it."

"If you want to change, don't talk, I'll show you something"

"Do you understand? Blink if you understand."

Bai Xia spoke in a low voice. As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Yu Chunhua blinking desperately. Although she was still a little worried, she had no choice but to believe, so she let go of her hand covering Yu Chunhua's mouth. , and stepped aside.

Yu Chunhua sat up, panting heavily.

After a while, he said: "You... who are you?"

Afraid of being shouted out and making the person in front of her anxious, she lowered her voice.

"Don't ask if you shouldn't, I'm just a traveling businessman"

Saying that, Bai Xia took out a bowl of rice that he had prepared a long time ago from the bushes beside him.

With the slight moonlight, Yu Chunhua saw this bowl of rice, although it didn't stand out, but it was still a big bowl, and her breath became short of breath.

"You... you said that a bowl of rice would sell for... ten cents?"

She stared at the rice in Bai Xia's hand, unable to move her eyes away, it was rare that she still remembered what Bai Xia said when she was threatened.

Bai Xia nodded.

"Then, do you have water for sale?"

Bai Xia shook her head.

If there was water, she wouldn't have to run away, and she could live a good life in Lijia Village, so there was no need to run around.

"Then how much rice do you have?"

"As much as you want"

"How did you get it?" Yu Chunhua asked impatiently, but she didn't want Bai Xia to put the knife on her neck directly, and said coldly: "Of course I have my channel, you shouldn't know about it, You don't ask about it"

Seeing that this person used the knife at the slightest disagreement, Yu Chunhua didn't dare to say anything.

"I How do I know, are you lying to me?"

She was afraid that if she really took the money, this man would chop her off with a single knife, and then all the money would be gone.

"You don't have to believe it, anyway, it's not me who will starve to death." Bai Xia was not in a hurry, and even laughed out loud.

Yu Chunhua believed most of it at this time.

But she didn't promise anything, she just said that she would go back and discuss it with her family.

After agreeing on a secret sign with Bai Xia, Yu Chunhua pretended nothing had happened and went back to the place where her family was stationed. After arriving at the place, she stepped a little faster, pulled her man and walked towards the darkness on one side.

When some refugees saw this, there was a look of disdain in their eyes.

No matter what time it is, I still think about that thing.

Of course Yu Chunhua didn't know what they were thinking.

"You are nagging, what are you going to do?" Yu Cuihua's man is Yu Dahai, they are from the same village, they have known each other since they were young, and they became relatives when they grew up, and their relationship is not bad.

He didn't feel that his mother-in-law dragged him to this dark place because he was thinking about that matter, but he was a little impatient. After all, he had to rest well and regain his energy before he could go on.

"The head of the house"

"I just met..."

"Someone bullied you?" Hearing her words, Yu Dahai immediately became anxious, as if if someone really dared to bully his wife, he would take revenge.

"No, I met a traveling merchant who sells things" Yu Chunhua hurriedly said because she was afraid that something would happen to her husband.

Hearing her words, Yu Dahai really calmed down, but soon he became suspicious again.

Where did the traveling merchants come from in this wilderness?
The couple muttered to each other in the dark, had a final discussion, took ten cents, and walked towards the location Bai Xia had just mentioned, and then Yu Chunhua imitated the cricket's cry a few times.

Soon, Bai Xia appeared in front of their husband and wife.

"Are you ready to trade?"

Yu Dahai is a bold person. He looked at the person in front of him, who was only half his height. If it wasn't for the voice of an adult man, he would almost think that the person in front of him was a doll.

Of course, he felt right.

This is also the reason why Bai Xia suppressed her throat.

"A bowl of rice for ten cents?"

"good"

Yu Dahai took ten Wen coins and handed them to Bai Xia.

Bai Xia also took a bowl of rice from behind and handed it to him, the first deal was concluded just like that.

"Is there anything else to buy?"

Yu Dahai and his wife shook their heads cautiously, and they tried to buy something first. Since the traveling merchant chose his wife, he must have his reasons, and they couldn't just do one deal.

I have to say that Yu Dahai is a smart person.

Bai Xia didn't stay any longer.

There will be a long time to come, and there will be opportunities to sell things.

After Bai Xia left, Yu Chunhua immediately grabbed a pinch of rice and put it in her mouth. The aroma of the rice wafted in her mouth, making her eyes light up immediately.

"The head of the house is true"
