Traveling through the famine, I stockpiled supplies like crazy

Chapter 534 Go home!



Chapter 534 Go home!

The next day, the two got up early and set off on their journey without resting for the entire day. They finally reached the county town before the sun set.

The weather is getting colder, and it gets dark much earlier than before. If we lose time on the road, we will have to sleep outdoors tonight.

Fortunately, the two of them arrived back in time and entered the city before the city gates were closed.

After running all the way to the new house and returning home, Xu Han instantly felt her tense body relax.

I just slumped in the chair and didn't move. I was so tired.

I thought to myself, "It was really not easy to travel far in ancient times. It was so painful."

Seeing his exhausted wife, Lu Chuan said distressedly, "I won't cook tonight. I'll go boil some hot water so you can take a hot bath and rest."

Xu Han waved her hands helplessly. Whatever, I don't care. Whatever you want to do!

The next day, the two of them slept until noon. When Xu Han woke up, she looked at the sun which was already high in the sky and said, "What time is it? Are you going to sell eggs or not? Why didn't you wake me up?"

Lu Chuan hugged his wife, kissed her and said, "I didn't call you because you were sleeping soundly. Anyway, it's late now, so we won't go today. Let's do what we need to do first!"

After saying that, he covered over with his big palm, and the temperature in the room rose sharply in an instant.

Xu Han was very tired every day during the past few days away from home, and Lu Chuan didn't have the heart to torment him. He hadn't eaten meat for several days, and now that he had rested, how could he bear it?

After making love, Xu Han lay on Lu Chuan and said, "Hurry up and get up. If you don't get up, you won't be able to get home soon."

Lu Chuan said nonchalantly, "Why are you in such a hurry? If you can't make it back, then don't rush. It's just right for us to stay for another day and enjoy life together."

Xu Han got up directly and said, "Enjoy yourself. I miss my son. I want to go home."

Lu Chuan looked jealous, but he didn't dare to say anything. He could only start packing his luggage silently so that he could take it with him when he returned.

To be honest, he missed his son during these days away from home, so he should go back quickly!

Xu Han put all the things into the space, locked the gate, and then followed Lu Chuan to the livestock market.

First he returned the carriage, and then walked home.

By the time the two arrived at the mountain, the sun had already begun to set. Even before it got close to the valley, the dogs at home began to bark wildly.

The servants working in the valley all became alert when they heard the barking of dogs. Only the Taoist priest stood aside calmly. It was obvious that he had guessed from the barking of the dogs that it was because Lu Chuan and the others had returned.

A moment later, two people emerged from the woods. Seeing this, everyone hurried forward to meet them.

In order to be able to take out more things openly when they return, Xu Han carried a full basket of things, and Lu Chuan not only carried a super large basket, but also held a lot of things in his hands.

In the eyes of everyone, the two men must be very tired after carrying the things all the way back, so they hurried over and prepared to take over the things they were carrying.

Zhu Qiang said, "Master, Madam, you are back. Please give us the backpack quickly! You must be very tired after carrying it all the way."

Xu Han was panting like a dramatic actress, looking extremely tired. With the help of Mrs. Li, she slowly put down the backpack.

Lu Chuan said to Xu Han, "Let's go back first! Drink some water to relax after we get home."

"Okay, let's go."

Lu Chuan led everyone forward, and while walking he did not forget to ask about what had happened in the valley recently.

Zhu Qiang said, "Everything is fine in the valley. Winter wheat has been planted recently. The Taoist priest is leading us to make bluestone slabs! We are going to pave the ground in the yard first. After the ground is paved, it will be convenient to walk in the yard even on cloudy and rainy days."

Renovating the yard is indeed an important matter at the moment. Seeing that they can run it well even without Xu Han and Lu Chuan, I feel relieved. I don’t have to worry about home when I go away for a long time in the future.

Lu Chuan praised, "Well, you did a good job. How much have you laid?"

"We are currently still in the stage of making bluestone slabs. Together with the bluestone slabs made previously, we have accumulated a lot of bluestone slabs at home. We are planning to lay out the important places starting tomorrow."

During this period of time, Zhu Qiang and his colleagues did not rest at all. After finishing work every day, they would go back and make bluestone slabs in the yard.

And as long as there is no work on the fields, a few people will go to the mountains to mine bluestone, then transport it back home, and continue to make bluestone slabs after finishing the work.

Over time, a lot of bluestone slabs have piled up in the yard, just waiting to be paved when there is time.

Lu Chuan nodded and said, "Okay, you guys can do it yourself. The autumn planting is over and there is nothing to do in the fields. When you are free, you can take them to repair the yard as soon as possible."

After thinking for a while, he continued, "I will go over to help tomorrow. I remember that your furniture and other things have not been made yet, right? When the time comes, the Taoist priest and I will bring people to make some cabinets, tables and chairs for your daily life.

We will try to equip your place and everything before the New Year so that you can have a good New Year."

The others all laughed when they heard this, and it was not difficult to tell from their faces that they were truly happy!

Although life in the valley is not bad now, with places to sleep and eat, the facilities are not complete.

Most of the time, when eating, I could only hold the bowl and sit casually on a stone, which was definitely not as comfortable as sitting properly on a chair.

As they were talking, they arrived at the courtyard. As soon as they pushed open the door, Mu'er and Ze'er smelled the scent and ran out.

Zhu Qiang and his colleagues put their things away and went back to work, leaving the space for the whole family.

When Ze'er and Mu'er saw their father and mother whom they hadn't seen for a few days, they immediately rushed over.

For a moment, the mother and the son were affectionate and filial, hugging each other, and the long-lost laughter and noise could be heard in the courtyard.

Ze'er hugged Xu Han's neck and said, "Daddy, Mommy, you are finally back. I missed you so much."

Xu Han hugged her son's face and kissed him, saying, "Mom misses you so much. Mom and Dad are not at home during this period. Have you listened to Grandpa Zhao, been good at home, and completed your homework on time?"

Xu Han asked three questions in a row, and the two children answered Xu Han's questions patiently. Mu'er also shared with them the new herbs she knew and told them about the fun of going to the mountains with her great grandfather to collect herbs.

"You guys also went to the mountains to collect herbs. How much did you collect?"

"We've picked so much, and we've prepared them all. They're now drying in the backyard. Come on, mommy will take you to see them." After Mu'er said that, she took Xu Han's hand and went to the backyard.
