"Take these things and get lost"
A small cloth bag fell on the ground in front of Gu Yundong. The mouth of the bag opened, revealing approximately ten shriveled potatoes.
Gu Yundong leaned against a large rock behind her. Her face was shallow, and her body was weak. She looked up and saw a woman's somewhat mean face.
She finally understood her current situation. She has transmigrated from the zombie-infested apocalypse to Jin kingdom, into the body of a 13 year old farm girl with the same name as her.
She had a father, mother, a younger sister and a younger brother. In the 17th year of Chongqing, Yongning prefecture had no crops because of the drought.
The commoners were struggling to survive and a large group of refugees began to migrate to the nearby prefectures to seek survival. As for her family way, to escape, and they had already left Yongning prefecture for more than half of a month.
The person In front of her threw the potatoes at her with a charitable expression was the original host's step grandmother, Mrs. Zhao. Beside her stood more than ten people from Second Uncle and Third Uncle's families. All of them had cold gazes while looking at their refugee family of four.
Gu Yundong did not have any strength in her body. This was because she had been hungry for too long. Her head was still in a dizzy state, and she could not even straighten her body slightly.
She looked away and ignored Mrs. Zhao. Her eyes swept across Second Uncle and Third Uncle's family, who were watching coldly from the side, and finally landed on Old Gu, who was sitting on a rock.
Grandma was a step grandmother, but grandfather was her biological grandfather.
Old Gu felt a little uncomfortable under her clear and piercing gaze. He coughed lightly and sighed softly after a while.
"Yundong, don't blame us. It's just that everyone is in trouble and we don't have much food left. Your family doesn't have a strong laborer, and your mother is mentally disabled. She can't do anything except eat and sleep. The world is too chaotic. Everyone can't even take care of their own families. We really don't have the energy to take care of you. You, you can only pray for yourself. This bag of potatoes is enough for your mother and the others to last for two days. You can think of a way yourself later. Whether you can survive or not is also the will of the heavens."
Gu Yundong sneered secretly. She had lived in the apocalypse for two years and had long seen the evilness of human nature. Old Gu had clearly done something evil, but he still found an excuse to push it to the heavens. Wasn't he afraid of being struck by lightning?
Unfortunately, she didn't have the strength now. Otherwise, why would she let him talk nonsense here?
She was disdainful, but a small figure beside her stubbornly wiped his eyes and said with a slight choked voice,
“We do have strong labor. My father disappeared to lure away the bandits. He will come back. You, you..."
Gu Yundong knew that he was the original owner's younger brother, Gu Yunshu. He was only five years old this year, but he looked to be only three or four years old.
The original host's father was called Gu Dajiang. Two days ago, they encountered a group of bandits. Gu Dajiang and her second uncle, Gu Dahe, used themselves as bait to divert the bandits' attention and give them a chance to escape. Later, Gu Dahe returned, but Gu Dajiang was nowhere to be found.
In everyone's eyes, Gu Dajiang was most likely killed by that group of bandits. The little Gu Yunshu refused to believe
it. He felt that his father was still alive and would definitely come back.
Old Gu did not want to say anything
Else. He just waved his hand and said,
"Alright, that's all. Take care of yourselves." As he spoke, he paused. In the end, he could not bear to part with his grandson. He asked Gu Yunshu,
"I can still bring you along. Why don't you come with us?"
Mrs. Zhao, who was at the side, was unhappy.
"Why bring him? We don't even have enough food ourselves. His portion is gone. If you want to follow, find your own food and eat dirt..."
Before she could finish speaking, Gu Yunshu had already grabbed Yundong's hand. The corners of his
mouth were pursed tightly. "I'm going
with my eldest sister."
Gu Yundong subconsciously wanted to
retract her hand. She was not used to physical contact with people, especially in the apocalypse. It was almost instinctive to guard against people approaching her. However, she did not have much strength now.
This little kid seemed to be afraid that he would be separated from her and held her fingers tightly. Because of this, Gu Yundong could clearly feel his small, thin, and trembling hand. She pursed her lips and did not say anything in the end.
Old Gu was provoked by Gu Yunshu's fearful attitude. He stood up angrily. "Up to you."
With that, he left with Mrs. Zhao and the others.
Madam Yang, who was Gu Yundong's mother, had been standing at the side and was confused. She was carrying a basket with a three-year-old girl in it. The girl was sleeping groggily, and such a
A huge commotion did not wake her up.
Seeing that Old Gu and the others had left, Madam Yang followed them helplessly. When she turned around and saw that Gu Yundong and Gu Yunshu were still in the same place, she hurriedly walked back and squatted beside her, asking in confusion, "Dongdong?? Let's go, let's go..."
Madam Yang wasn't very smart, but she knew people. She still didn't understand that the Gu family had abandoned her and her three daughters. She was just curious why the Gu family didn't wait for them.
Gu Yundong was still recovering her strength. It was difficult for her to even speak now, and she had no patience to explain. On the other hand, Gu Yunshu comforted Madam Yang in a low voice, "Mother, Eldest Sister is tired. Let's leave later."
Eldest Sister had fainted previously. Because of this, Grandpa and the step grandma finally had an excuse to leave their family.
Gu Yunshu was worried. His father was not around, his eldest sister was sick, his mother was mentally disabled, and his younger sister was weak. He was now the only male in the family. Although he was only five years old, he had to take care of his family.
Gu Yunshu tried his best to straighten his small body and looked at Gu Yundong, who had closed her eyes to rest.
At this moment, Gu Yundong was actually happy. She had lived in the apocalypse for a year, and she had the mentality that every day she could survive was a good day. Although this place was also in a chaotic world, at least there were no zombies or mutated animals and plants here. After the disaster caused by the drought, her life would slowly improve. The future here was filled with hope.
As for the original host's family... they had given her a chance to be reborn. As long as they did not cause trouble for her, Gu Yundong would treat it as repaying them and would not abandon them.
Just as she was thinking about it, she suddenly heard hurried footsteps.
She raised her head slightly and saw her second uncle, Gu Dahe, who had returned.
Gu Yundong did not have a good impression of this second uncle at all. Back then, he and Gu Dajiang had lured the bandits away, but only he had returned. This made her think more about this and link Dajiang's disappearance to him.
Gu Dahe ran to Gu Yundong's side and squatted down to tug at her sleeve without a word.
"What are you doing?" Gu Yundong regained some strength and retracted her hand.
"In any case, you're about to die soon. Don't waste the money your father left for you. I'll help you give it to your grandparents."
Gu Dahe picked up a stone beside him and threw it at her head. Gu Yundong only had time to curse before she fainted.
"Eldest Sister! !" Gu Yunshu screamed and pounced over to slap Gu Dahe crazily.
Madam Yang also reacted. She put down the basket on her back and came up to scratch him.
Gu Dahe took two steps back from the two of them. Finally, he grabbed Gu Yunshu impatiently and grabbed his neck with one hand. He shouted at Madam Yang, who was about to pounce on him and bite him, "Stop. If you come any closer, I'll strangle your son to death."
Madam Yang suddenly stopped. She hesitated and did not dare to go forward. She looked at her son and then at her unconscious daughter.
Suddenly, she knelt down in front of Gu Dahe. "Second uncle, please, I beg you. Put Ah Shu down. He hurts. He hurts."
Gu Yunshu's face turned purple from the squeezing, and his eyes turned red. Tears welled up in his eyes and refused to fall. He ignored them and struggled frantically.
"Mother, get up. Don't kneel. He's not human. He's a beast. He hit my sister and is trying to force us to die. I won't let him off even if I become a ghost."
Gu Dahe did not care about what he scolded. Without Madam Yang in the way, he walked back to Gu Yundong's side and pulled off her sleeve. He knew that his eldest brother had secretly given this niece some silver to protect herself. He had also accidentally seen Gu Yundong sewing the silver into her sleeve. That was why he had come back to get it.
In any case, in this world, their family would definitely not live for more than a few days. Instead of letting this silver be buried with them, it was better for him to take it.
Gu Dahe had no qualms about it. He rolled up his sleeves and saw a tael of silver. His big brother was really scheming. He actually hid so much money secretly.
After receiving the silver, Gu Dahe threw Gu Yunshu away. Madam Yang quickly went forward to catch him to prevent him head from hitting the stone. "Ah Shu, Mother is here. It doesn't hurt."
Gu Yunshu almost couldn't breathe. After regaining his freedom, he finally began to pant heavily.
Gu Dahe stood up and glanced at them with a smug smile. "Don't blame me. It was your grandparents who decided to chase you away. I'm a junior, so I can only listen to them."
After saying that, he snorted and strode in the direction of Old Gu and the others.
Old Gu had seen his second son leave. Now that he saw him return, he frowned slightly and asked, "Where did you go?"
Gu Dahe did not hide it from him. "That girl still had money hidden on her. I brought it to Father and Mother."
Old Gu stopped in his tracks. “They only have so little food. Why did you still go..."
"Why can't we go?" Before he could finish speaking, Madam Zhao couldn't help but scold, "I told you that your eldest son is dishonest. He didn't show filial piety to the two of us when he had money and even secretly gave it to his wife and daughter.
This heartless thing. We worked so hard to raise him up, but we only raised such an ingrate. We should have beaten him to death long ago. So what if Second Brother took the money anyway they can't use it, even if we gave it to her. Don't let it end up with someone else's hand."
Old Gu opened his mouth. After a long time he sighed and said "it's their bad luck". He tacitly agrees with Mrs. Zhao.
Gu Dahe put away the silver with clear conscience " Mother I will keep the silver with me. I am young and strong, it won't easy to take it away from me."
Mrs. Zhao glance at him but don't say anything. In this world, she is not willing to uphappy her, son over a few dozens of copper coins. If she angered her son, and he abandoned her, she couldn't be alive as an old lady. She thought there was not much money so she let him be.
