Farming Space: The Lucky and Lovely Lady Come to Farm Chapter 64

Chapter 64 Where is the beginning?

Gu Fei suddenly remembered that the troops marched in the past. No wonder they all wore leggings.

 She should have thought of this earlier.

Xiaocao said in a sweet voice beside her: "Brother, tie it up for me too."

Ms. Chen smiled and said, "You don't have to walk a few steps, so you don't need to be tied up."

Li Chunhua and Lanzhi were also tied to each other. Lanzhi looked at her legs. She really didn't expect that one day she would go out dressed in such a weird way.

There's nothing I can do, my legs are so painful that I can't lift them up.

That's not all, when the old lady left the room, Gu Fei pulled Lanzhi over, took out a box of shadow powder that she had used in her previous life, and applied it all over Lanzhi's face.

Lanzhi first thought that Gu Fei was applying makeup on herself, but when she saw her dark self in the bronze mirror, she was startled, "Why are you putting makeup on me like this?"

Gu Fei pinched her face and said, "You are too good-looking. It is not safe on the road. What if we encounter officers, soldiers or bandits and **** you away?"

 “I didn't expect this yesterday.”

Upon hearing this, Lanzhi nodded quickly, wishing that Gu Fei could apply more on him.

 Coming out of the room, Chen and Li Chunhua also started to make breakfast. Breakfast consisted of wild vegetable and white rice porridge, plus pickles and cornmeal pancakes.

After dinner, Mrs. Chen asked Gu Erlang to fetch two buckets of water, stir them with alum, put them in a large pot to boil, and then filled all the water bladders.

 The operations of every household are similar.

Since my uncle has a small family, he only bought a bucket of water, boiled it, poured it into a jar and sealed it, and gave the rest to the mules to drink.

At about midnight, the mule was brought out and harnessed. Uncle Ma shouted, "Let's go. Let's go faster today and try to get to Fuyuan Town to rest in the evening."

Not long after setting off, I felt that there were slightly more people on the official road than yesterday.

Gu Zhang saw a group of more than ten people walking in rags and carrying bags, old and young, both men and women. They looked like a family, so he went over to find an old man and asked, "Old man, Where are you going?"

 The old man shook his head and said, "I don't know, it doesn't matter where I go."

“There are only three acres of land at home, but there is no harvest in the spring, and there is a drought now. We haven't harvested a grain of grain this year. We have been without food for half a year, and we have no way to survive at home. Maybe we can survive outside.”

Gu Zhang sighed, and the old man asked, "Where are you going?"

Gu Zhang said: "Go to the south. There is no drought in the south. The counties in the north are suffering from severe drought. Our families don't have enough water to survive."

The old man was stunned, "How many counties are suffering from drought? So where does this end?"

“I also thought that it would be better to go to Xishan County. My family still has a few laborers, and I can make a living by working as a long-term laborer.”

Gu Zhang shook his head, "It's been a drought, so Xishan County is probably not as good as ours. We, Xi Qin County, have had a good county governor in recent years. They have reduced a lot of excessive taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and they have also built water conservancy projects. Every family can live a good life."

“There are many coal mountains in Xishan County, so the output from the fields is less, so it will be even more difficult.”

The old man's face showed confusion. There is no way to survive in Xishan County. What should we do?

“Then which south side are you going to?”

Gu Zhang replied: "Let's go southeast to Donghai County."

The old man shook his head: "Isn't it closer to Hanzhong County? It's also in the south. There's a big river there so there won't be droughts. I went there when I was young."
