The peasant girl in the apocalypse of natural disaster has space

Chapter 35
"No, it's too dangerous. Let your second uncle and the others go take a look!"

Mrs. Song was really worried about Song Jinyue. Remembering that Song Hailong was good at climbing trees, she called Song Hailong from a distance and asked him to come here.

Song Hailong came over with a basket of mushrooms. After listening to Mrs. Song's explanation, he glanced at the quail eggs in Song Jinyue's hand, nodded, put the basket on his back, picked a tree, and quickly climbed up.

"Second uncle, you have to be careful!" Song Jinyue shouted loudly from below.

After Song Hailong climbed up the tree, he quickly reached the bird's nest and poked his hand inside. Sure enough, there were many eggs and he picked them up one by one.

After descending from the tree, he climbed several more trees and obtained nearly a hundred quail eggs. After that, he could no longer find any quail eggs.

"so much!"

Looking at this pile of small and exquisite bird eggs, the whole family was very happy. Although the eggs were not enough for one bite, they were quite a lot!
"I didn't expect that there would be so many eggs in this bird's nest!"

Song Hailong wiped his sweat, sat on the ground and rested for a while before slowly getting up.

Some villagers who were nearby stopped digging for vegetables when they saw that the Song family had found so many bird eggs. They went to look for trees that Song Hailong had not been to. They climbed up the trees one after another to dig out the bird's nests.

Seeing this, Song Jinyue secretly placed a hundred quail eggs in some bird nests with her mind. Otherwise, it would be too suspicious to find bird eggs in their house.

"Oh, there are really bird eggs"

"I'm counting, one, two, three..."

There were bird eggs on the tree, and the news spread among the villagers like the wind.

Next, in order to get bird eggs, everyone stopped digging for vegetables and climbed trees one by one to look for bird eggs. Not only the villagers of Stone Village, but also the fellow escapees hurriedly climbed up the trees for fear of being a step too late. The eggs are gone.

But Song Jinyue stopped throwing eggs. Until dark, the people behind didn't find any eggs.

The Song family obtained the most eggs. They put a hundred quail eggs into a pot and boiled them, taking out one-third of them and saving the rest for eating on the way.

“It’s a small quail egg, but I didn’t expect it to taste quite satisfying!”

Song Haitao savored the aroma of eggs spreading between his lips and tongue, his face intoxicated, and those who didn't know thought he was eating some delicacy.

Han Ling only ate one and put the remaining three in his pocket, obviously reluctant to eat them.

Finally, after passing several empty stations, everyone finally saw hope.

Ahead, a striking golden plaque comes into view.

"Shuiyun City!"

"We are finally saved!"

Both the escapees and the villagers of Stone Village were overjoyed.

At the gate of the city, several sheds can be seen, with several large iron pots containing very thin porridge inside. Several soldiers guarded the sides to maintain order.

Behind, there was a long queue of refugees, all holding bowls and waiting anxiously.

"Let's go too!"

Villagers from Shitou Village carried their baggage and lined up. Many of their families had run out of food yesterday, and now someone was giving porridge at the gate of the city, which literally saved their lives.

After everyone finished making porridge, they chatted with the surrounding villagers and asked some questions about Shuiyun City's accommodation of refugees.

Most of these villagers were people living in nearby villages. Due to drought and no grain harvest, their families came to the city gate to wait for porridge. They only waited for a few days for the government's disaster relief grain to be released, and then they went back to their homes.

Many people are willing to answer questions raised by villagers in Stone Village.

"The enemy troops invaded from the west before. Many villages in the west are now vacant. If you have money, you should be able to settle here!"

"How much does it cost approximately?"

As soon as they heard that money was needed, many refugees became worried.

"Two taels of silver."

"Every household?" "Every person!"

"Ah, isn't this a money grab?"

After receiving the exact answer, many people frowned.

Song Jinyue did the math. The Song family now has a lot of money on hand. The Han brothers got ten taels. They searched for dead bandits on the road. Fourteen taels for the seven people should be enough.

Mrs. Song was obviously relieved when she learned that she had enough money. She looked at the others again. Liu Guisheng nodded. He had been treating people over the years and had some savings on hand.

The Huang family and the Li family had a lot of labor, and with the money collected from the robbers, it was basically enough.

Only the old Yang family, because his father was immoral and liked gambling, left a debt to his father before his death. In order to pay off the debt for his father, the conditions of his family are not too bad, but they definitely don't have much money?

"How far is it?"

Mrs. Song stepped forward and asked, that was just the way she was, if someone helped her once, she would be grateful for the rest of her life.

"Sister-in-law Song, stop asking and take the children into the city first!"

Yang Manfu shook his head, as if he didn't want to say more.

"Uncle Yang, you are out of touch now. You have helped us a lot over the years. How much money does your family have? You might as well tell us. Maybe we can help you."

"Of course, if you feel bad about it, we'll keep the account first and pay it back whenever you can!"

Song Haitao stepped forward cheerfully, and his words made hope rise in Yang Manfu's eyes.

His family has three sons and one daughter, two of whom are married and have one grandson. Including the old couple, there are nine people in total. The money in hand is only ten taels, and most of them came from robbers.

"It's done, eight taels of silver, I'll lend it to your family first!"

Song Haitao flipped his wrist, and a shiny jade pendant appeared in front of everyone.

When Xu Tiansheng saw this, he hurried forward. Shen Hong's family had just left him behind and had already paid the money and entered the city. When he was at his wits' end, he saw Song Haitao holding his jade pendant in his hand.

"Song Haitao, this jade pendant is worth at least 20 taels of silver. The food you gave me is not worth the price. You have to take me with you when you enter the city!"

Xu Tiansheng looked like he was about to cry, feeling helpless at being abandoned and suffering from missing relatives.

"Why do grown men cry so much!"

Song Haitao snorted, thinking about how beautiful it was when this person came to his door. I wonder if he ever regretted falling in love with Shen Cui.

"Okay, Haitao, just take him in!"

Mrs. Song saw that Xu Tiansheng was really pitiful, and it was due to her maternal nature. In addition, the jade pendant was indeed worth a lot of money, so she nodded and agreed. How could the few bites of food along the way really be like what the boy Haitao said, a tael of silver? A meal.

When Xu Tiansheng heard that Mrs. Song agreed to take him, he burst into tears and knelt down in front of Mrs. Song.

"Aunt Song, I was arrogant earlier, and I apologize to you."

At this moment, in his eyes, the Song family was nothing more than a savior. How did Shen Hong's family enter the city because of the bracelet he gave to Shen Cui? He begged them to take him with them, but was ruthlessly pushed away.

How hard he cried at the moment, how regretful he felt in his heart. It would have been better if he had not met Shen Cui in the first place.

Mrs. Song and others followed Liu Guisheng and others to the city gate, and guards immediately blocked the way.

"Do you all know the rules for entering the city?"

"of course I know!"

Liu Guisheng and others nodded, then took out the money from their pockets.

Mrs. Song first paid her own money, and then went to the city with Song Hailong to find a pawn shop to pawn the jade pendant. Then she paid the handling fee to the Yang family and Xu Tiansheng, and everyone entered the city gate.
