As an orphan, what she longed for most was her family. However, once she traveled back in time, she actually met such parents. For ten taels of silver, she sold the original owner to Lao An's family and to An Zichen, who was about to join the army.
But now it seems that she has a family, and they are such two sensible little carrots.
At this moment, she vowed in her heart that she would be good to these two children and be their real mother. From this moment on, she would be the real Xia Qiyue, Xuaner Keer's biological mother.
"You two can't walk fast, and walking requires a lot of energy. It will be dangerous if you can't keep up with the villagers. Mom is strong, so she can walk faster with you on her back! Just be obedient, sit in the basket, and fan Mom.
Okay!" Xia Qiyue had no doubts and put the two children in the carrier, which was just big enough for them to sit apart.
After putting the children in and sitting down, she gritted her teeth, struggled to carry the basket that was half her height, stood up with difficulty, and walked out without looking back.
She has nothing to miss here, and is even a little disgusted. If she is lucky enough to escape to a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters, she will settle down with her two children and never come back here again.
Outside, there were still people passing by carrying salutes and baskets on their backs one after another. Xia Qiyue joined the fleeing team with the few salutes and rations on her back, and her two children on her back.
At this time, Lao An's family had disappeared.
I originally thought that the people who left first had already left, after all, it was almost noon now, but when Xia Qiyue walked out of the village, she found that the villagers who had left first were all waiting on the flat ground outside the village.
She felt relieved now. Although she still had to rely on herself on the way to escape, she still felt safer because Yuri was organizing with the clan leader to lead the way.
Xia Qiyue was carrying two children on her back. She felt a little strenuous even here. She was panting and couldn't close her mouth. She felt a cool breeze blowing above her head. She looked back curiously and found that it was two children.
Use your little hands to fan her.
"Xuan'er, Ke'er, mother is not hot. If you two are sleepy, just sleep on mother's back!"
Xia Qiyue felt that at this moment, her body felt a lot more relaxed, and her feet unconsciously accelerated a little faster.
Most people in Shanbei Zhuangzi are from families with the surname An, so Li Zheng and the clan leader are both surnamed An. At this time, the two of them were working together to check whether there was anyone left behind in the village, and whether there was anything big or small.
Walking to Lao An's team, Li Zhengan Shunde checked it out. Although his face was frowning, his tone of voice when talking to Old An was still brisk.
"Uncle Anbang's team brings a lot of things!"
An Shunde is thirty-one years old, the same generation as An Zichen, and is somewhat close to Lao An's family inside and out. He usually helps Lao An's family in the village, so Mr. An still likes this nephew very much.
"Shunde, hey... I'm running away from famine, maybe I can come back. The whole family will have a lot of expenses along the way, so I just took what I could."
Li Zheng nodded, preparing to cross Lao An's house and check out the next one.
Although Shanbei Zhuangzi seems to have a lot of people, there are only about forty households in the house.
It's just that each family has a lot of people, and all the sons live together, so the population is a bit larger. There are more than 400 people in the whole village.
The patriarch, who was following Li Zheng and checking everywhere with a worried look, suddenly looked at Old Man An.
"Brother Anbang, why are the Zichen family and the two children missing?"
When the patriarch asked this question, Old Man An suddenly hesitated on his face, hesitating and not knowing what to say.
Anyone would be heartbroken to hear that the daughter-in-law with two three-year-old babies was left alone at this critical moment of escape.
"What's going on?" Although the clan leader and Old Man An can still call each other brothers, but when it comes to matters of right and wrong, his clan leader's intimidating power is still there.
After asking this question, Old Man An couldn't hold it back anymore, so he forced himself to speak and told everything.
Although it was said that Xia Qiyue took the initiative to divide the family and even threatened him with a water bag, whether the clan leader believed it or not was another matter.
"Uncle Anbang, what you did in this matter is unethical! How difficult is it for the four younger siblings with two three-year-old babies? How could you do such a thing?" Li Zheng couldn't help but feel a little angry after hearing this.
, said without mercy.
Liu Mei was very unconvinced after hearing this. She wanted to refute several times, but was stopped by An Zicheng.
Old Mrs. An lowered her head and left everything to the old man. She didn't feel embarrassed, but she was a woman and couldn't say too much in front of the patriarch.
"You guys let me down so much!" The patriarch looked at him with an unkind expression for a long time. Finally, he had no choice but to walk away without leaving any instructions. However, when he returned to his team, he spoke to a few of his sons. There were many people in the team.
Pay attention to Zichen's wife, don't let anything happen to the three of them.
Xia Qiyue followed the crowd to the gathering place, stood there and waited for a while, and soon Li Zheng's voice sounded.
"Everyone, please take your gifts and collect your children. It's getting late. It's time for us to set off. When we leave, we men should try to walk on the outside, protect the women and children in the middle, and protect the important rations and water.
, I have also sent the strongest laborers in the village to walk at the end. You must be careful not to fall behind! Let’s go!”
As soon as Li Zheng's voice fell, each family formed a small team and started moving forward.
Xia Qiyue had no family, so she could only follow the footsteps of the people moving forward by herself, carrying her two children on her back.
However, after walking a few steps, An Zihao, An Zichen's fifth younger brother, ran over.
"Fourth sister-in-law, my parents asked you to go ahead and follow the family!"
Xia Qiyue was reluctant at first. She didn't want to get involved with the gang of elites who had finally separated. But then she thought about it. As a young woman with two children and no protection from a big family, she would definitely want to get involved.
Being bullied.
It would be fine if she was alone, but with two children so young, what if something happened.
Thinking of this, she followed An Zihao forward. Old An and his family were waiting by the roadside. When he saw them coming, he turned around and started on his way without saying a word.
Xia Qiyue merged into the team despite the unkind looks of several sisters-in-law, and walked at the back of Lao An's family.
Although Lao An's family was not at the front, they were not too far behind, in the middle.
Xia Qiyue felt a little relieved when she saw that there were people not far away in front and behind, and An Zihao deliberately walked at the back carrying a load, very close to them.
She found that although some of the sisters-in-law in Lao An's family were really bad, the old lady might not be. At least she still pretended to be a grandson in her heart.
The old man didn't treat her well because of the whole family's consideration, but just for her behavior, she gave the old man some points.
Now it seems that the fifth child of the An family is not bad, but the other three are really not flattering.
Five fingers are still long and short, and it is normal for brothers to be divided into good and bad. At least she is not alone, and it seems to be good now.
