Chapter 18 Bamboo Baskets Are Heavy
There are not many porridges in the bamboo tube, and it is almost enough for each person to drink two mouthfuls.
The sky had completely darkened, and Gu Yundong sat aside as usual to watch.
There were too many people at the gate of the city, and she didn't dare to take it lightly.
There were still bright and dark fire lights illuminating the night, and there were also many small sounds, and there were faint screams in the distance. 𝘧𝑟𝘦𝒆w𝚎𝙗nov𝘦𝗹.𝐜o𝓶
In this place, people still starve to death every day, and robbery and fights also happen from time to time.
No wonder there will be chaos. If the prefect officials in the city still don't think of a solution to the problem, the small chaos will eventually lead to a big disaster.
"Girl?" As he was thinking, a familiar voice suddenly came from his ear.
Gu Yundong's expression suddenly tightened, and he saw a staggering figure walking in front of him. As he got closer, he realized that it was the uncle who was talking to him before.
Gu Yundong hurriedly stood up, "Master, is something wrong?"
"Girl." As Uncle Yu got closer, he lowered his voice and said eagerly, "If you can go, go quickly. My son and grandson are all back, and I just brought back the news that those people may be Tomorrow is going to start early in the morning. I don't know what will happen, and you won't be able to escape with your younger siblings."
Gu Yundong was taken aback for a moment, she felt that there might be chaos in the next two days, but she didn't expect it to come so soon.
"What about you, Uncle?"
Uncle Yu smiled bitterly, "My son said, let's not get involved in this kind of thing, and hide away when the time comes. As for the future, take one step at a time. Okay, girl, hurry up, don't delay."
Gu Yundong nodded, crouched down and woke up Yang.
Directly asked Yang to carry Gu Yunshu on his back and Gu Yunke himself.
They don't have much stuff, they basically put them in the backpack, and they can go away.
Gu Yundong also found that not far away, there were also several families quietly preparing to leave, and it seemed that they also got the news and didn't want to get involved.
Yang was still a little confused, but she was obedient, and her daughter let her go, she immediately followed.
Several people passed by the place where the uncle Yu rested, and Gu Yundong saw his equally skinny son and grandson. The two were friendly to her and nodded slightly.
Gu Yundong also nodded, but he paused when he walked to the place where they put the bamboo baskets before leaving.
Uncle Yu took a few steps and said, "This place is close to Wanqing Mansion, so be careful along the way."
"Master, take care too." After a pause, he added, "Go back and look at the bamboo basket."
Gu Yundong's movements were very light, but his steps were hurried.
But she didn't go to the Wanqing Mansion that Uncle Yu said. When Uncle Yu couldn't see it, she turned her head and walked in the direction of Xuanhe Mansion, which was a little further away.
There is chaos here, many people will definitely flee to Wanqing Mansion, and the chaos here may even spread to that side.
She has food on hand, and no matter where she goes, she will not starve to death on the road. Or go to a safer place, Xuanhe House is her current first choice.
Uncle Yu waited until he could no longer see their figures, then turned around and went back.
His son came over to help him sit down, "That family is the one that Dad said earlier? I really don't see that they have the ability to escape to this place."
"That girl is ruthless, but I admire her strength, just like when your mother was young." Uncle Yu wiped his eyes and laughed, "Let's go too, go to the mountain to hide."
"Okay." Uncle Yu asked his son to support his father and carried the bamboo basket on his back.
The first time he didn't carry it on his back, Uncle Yu was stunned, "Strange, why is this bamboo basket so heavy?"
