The eldest daughter of the peasant family just wants to start a career

After a while, the old man was amused by the two little guys.

Until nine o'clock in the middle of the night, the two little guys who had been practicing Qigong for the past few days and insisted on going to bed early and getting up early yawned a little uncontrollably.

Mu Zhixu was also a little sleepy, so he took the two little guys to bid farewell to his wife and went to rest.

When the two left, the old man was still sitting in the yard, sitting there by himself.

Mu Zhixu heard from his old man before that he and his wife have a son and a daughter, and the daughter and son have already married.

My daughter fell in love with a businessman from Laizhou City, and married far away. The distance is too far away. It takes several months to go back and forth each time, which is really uneconomical.

The old man can only see his daughter once every two years. The daughter and grandson stayed at home for a few days and then left again.

The son married a daughter-in-law in Linzhou City, but unfortunately the daughter-in-law is not a good one, she doesn't want to see the old man, and the son is a strict wife.

Slowly, the son's family stopped getting along with the old man.

I can only see him once every few months, or during the Chinese New Year, the daughter-in-law reluctantly brings his grandson to pay him New Year's greetings.

He can feel the joy of family joy.

There are sons and daughters but still alone.

Mu Zhixu couldn't help with this, he could only try his best to bring some warmth and happiness to the old man while he was still in the inn.

Worried that happiness is only short-lived after all,
Parting is at hand.

Early the next morning,
The sun was getting bright, and Mu Zhixu got up from the bed.

As before, call Mu Zhilan and Mu Zhiliu to practice first.

Li Sanniang was asked to get up and pack her things, while she went down to cook first.

I don't know when the old man went to bed last night. When Mu Zhixu got up, the old man had already woken up.

Mu Zhixu made breakfast, and the old man helped cook the pot.

The big pancakes baked in the morning, scrambled eggs with green vegetables and pickled vegetable sauce are eaten together.

In addition to being eaten in the morning, this pancake can also serve as a meal at noon and evening.

This morning's meal, the whole family ate very slowly, and the old man didn't eat as much as before.

But no matter how slow you eat, it will end. As the sun rises little by little, boxes of luggage are moved to the carriage.

After all, we have to say goodbye, and we have to leave after all.

Mu Zhixu first helped Li Sanniang and Mu Lin into the carriage, then Mu Zhilan and Mu Zhiliu,
"Old man, let's go."

Mu Zhixu said goodbye to the old man.

"Be careful on the road, and when it's settled, you must remember to bring it to me."

The old man suppressed his emotions.

"Don't worry, I will definitely write to you when you settle down. And the days are long, and I will definitely bring them back to see you when I have time."

"We will definitely come back to see you when we are free, goodbye, grandpa!"

"Goodbye Grandpa!"

Mu Zhilan and Mu Zhiliu were also reluctant to lift the curtain to bid farewell to the old man.

Mu Zhixu turned over and got into the carriage, and finally said something to the old man,
"Goodbye."

"Goodbye."

The old man smiled and waved his hands.

"Drive, drive!!"

As the horse ran forward, all that was left was dust and the shadow of his back.

The old man slowly put down his hands, and the smile on his face disappeared, followed by disappointment.

He stood there quietly until the sound of the carriage completely disappeared before turning back to the inn.

Let's go, we all have to go.

-

After leaving the city, go all the way forward.

Horses run faster than people. If they only rely on two legs to walk forward, they will have to walk non-stop for at least two hours before they can leave the city.

You can get out of the city in ten minutes in a carriage.

On the road, there were also many refugees who chose to go to the front city like Mu Zhixu.

But these refugees now are completely different from those before.

With the care and comfort of Fengwu in Linzhou City during this time, they still look like rags and rough clothes, with messy hair, but the expressions on their faces are completely different from the numb and desperate look before.

I used to go forward to escape, but now I go forward for a better life in the future.

There are also many people driving horse-drawn carts, bullock carts, and mules or carts on the main road.

There are even some people who start a business flexibly. A cart is pulled behind the cow, and a few copper coins can sit on it and send them to a fixed place to put it down.

Generally, as long as you have a little spare money, you will not choose to walk on two legs, so generally there are a lot of people on a cart like this, and there are at least a dozen or twenty people on a cart.

Every time they saw a carriage passing by in front of them, they would show envy on their faces, but not jealousy.

A better life is just around the corner, and when they settle down in the last few cities, they can earn money with their own hands, buying ox carts and horse carts.

It is still a little inconvenient to use the identity of a woman to drive a carriage on the road.

Mu Zhixu dressed himself as a boy again.

The fixed image of women in most people's eyes is gentle and weak, obviously with the same body, but men are even more terrifying.

Now, although there is no need to be vigilant around the surroundings like before, in order to prevent my group from being targeted by some gangsters who like to intercept halfway and ask for money.

There are only children and women in the carriage, and it feels weak without a man.

The less trouble, the better.

It is difficult for her to fight with four hands alone, but there are usually groups of gangsters who stop cars halfway.

Fortunately, no one noticed along the way.

When resting on the first night, luck was not very good, and I did not find a small town or small village where I could rest.

However, many people like them had their carriages and ox carts parked sparsely around.

Refugees have had such a hard time and have no complaints about not having a house or a bed to sleep at night.

A fire was lit to disperse the surrounding beasts, and several people rested around the fire.

There are still a few days before the next city, the most important thing is to have a good rest and maintain physical strength.

Mu Zhixu thought about his own family of women and children, so he didn't hang out with those people.

Park the carriage some distance away from the group of people, not far or near, and then rest on the spot.

"Sister, I'm a little hungry."

Opening the curtain, Mu Zhiliu blinked at Mu Zhixu.

Today, she was busy on her way, and she didn't eat at noon. Her little stomach was going to be flattened by hunger.

"I remember I put a few pancakes for you in the carriage, didn't you have some sweet belly?"

The space in Macheng is too small, with so many things inside and people sitting there, it is obviously unrealistic to stand and eat inside.

Mu Zhixu helped Mu Zhilan and Mu Zhiliu out for a walk to exercise their muscles, then took out the big pancakes they had prepared in advance, added some dried meat and some pickles.

This pancake was big enough. Although I didn't have lunch, I didn't have much activity today. Such a big pancake was enough for Mu Zhilan and Mu Zhiliu.
