Quick Wear: The Wronged One Becomes Rebellious

Chapter 452: Reconstruction of the Family on the Road to Escape

As the aroma of the barbecue wafted up a little bit, the few people who had been avoiding sight began to take a peek from time to time.

Gu Mancang picked out the roasted chicken worms and placed one in front of each person.

Before the other three had gathered enough courage to start, Gu Mancang took the lead in picking up the worm and putting it in his mouth. Several people looked at him, and landed on his chewing mouth.

The food is so exaggerated!

Gu Li could even hear the crisp sound of crackling.

It smells even better.

"Well, it's because you haven't experienced what it's like to be truly hungry that you don't want to eat bugs. Let me tell you, this is a good thing, very nutritious. Delicious!"

Gu Li swallowed, picked up the browned insect with chopsticks made of tree branches, and stuffed it into the small hole she had made in the hard steamed bun.

Then he closed his eyes and took a big bite. He silently told himself to swallow it in one gulp, and not to take a bite without leaving half a worm in the bun!

"It's become a lot smaller after roasting. What a waste!" Gu Mancang said quietly.

Gu Li:-----

If it weren't for the aroma of the roasted food, she wouldn't have been able to eat it.

When He Yun saw that Gu Li had eaten all the worms, he did not lag behind. He picked up the worms and put them directly into his mouth, eating with an expressionless face.

The dry noodle steamed bun with meat flavor tasted much better, Gu Li smacked the food in her mouth. However, the steamed bun had changed its taste after being stored for a long time.

Masked the aroma of roasted bugs.

"Dad, are the yams ready?"

"Okay, okay!" Gu Mancang picked out a yam from the fire and rolled it to Gu Li's feet, "Is this thing called yam?"

But why didn't he remember the two kids saying this thing was called this name?

Gu Li laughed and casually placed the spoiled steamed bun on a stone. He picked up the yam with both hands and said, "Ah, it's hot, hot, hot!"

The yam fell to the ground. Gu Li blew on her burned fingers. She caught a glimpse of He Yunwang stuffing worms into his mouth one by one. Gu Li's eyelids twitched.

Oh my god, you know what, if you don’t think of it as a bug, it actually tastes pretty good.

"Hey, freeloader, don't eat all this food in one go, can't you save some for later?"

He Yunwang looked at her, and his eyes fell on the steamed bun thrown aside by Gu Li, as if to ask, should we save it until the end and eat it before it goes bad?

Gu Li's words stunned everyone present, especially Tao Chunhua, whose face turned pale and she put down the half-eaten insect.

Gu Mancang: "Xiao Li'er, how can you talk like that? It was Yun Wang who carried you on his back when you were escaping just now!"

"Humph, I have legs myself!"

He Yunwang picked up another worm and stuffed it into his mouth, saying quietly, "It's just a little short, so it can't run fast!"

Gu Li: ------

Gu Li angrily picked up the yam on the ground and threw it at him. This person is so annoying. Can't he see that he is living under someone else's roof? He still dares to argue with her!

He Yunwang slightly turned his body, and the yam fell on the hem of his shirt.

He Yunwang ignored Gu Li's arrogant face, picked it up, tore off the skin and started eating!

Gu Li: "You-----give me back the yam!" The yam that burned her paw should be eaten bite by bite!

He Yunwang exhaled hot air and took another bite!

Only at this time did Gu Mancang feel the familiar shadow of his former daughter.

Mischievous and cute.

Gu Mancang quickly handed another yam to his daughter, then turned to smile at Tao Chunhua, "It's normal for children to fight with each other, you can eat it too!"

Tao Chunhua smiled guiltily and didn't take the yam. "Ayun is the youngest at home. My husband's father-in-law and uncle love him. He has no experience in taking care of his younger brothers and sisters!"

Gu Mancang stuffed the yam into Tao Chunhua's hand, "Noisy and quarrelsome will make our relationship deeper! We are already a family, and there is no distinction between you and me when it comes to food! Eat it."

Tao Chunhua looked at Gu Mancang with gratitude. This rough man actually saw her worry and embarrassment.

Unconsciously, the past twenty years of Tao Chunhua's life seemed like a lifetime ago. A piece of yam and a warm word when she was hungry and thirsty were enough to calm her anxious heart.

Gu Li was frightened by her father's "noisy and affectionate" attitude. She gave up finding fault and sat back quietly to eat.

This hot meal was almost the most delicious meal they had on their journey of fleeing famine.

Before they finished eating, they could hear rustling sounds from a distance as someone approached.

Gu Mancang packed up his things and started moving with his family.

Gu Li kicked the earth and waited until the fire was completely extinguished before leaving. In such a dry forest, a small spark could start a prairie fire.

"Boss, where should we go next?"

"We won't go into the forest. Let's go around the foot of the mountain and head south!" Gu Mancang had asked the child's sister. The reason why only the siblings were hiding in this forest was because the deep mountains in front were connected to the large mountain range in the west, and there were ferocious beasts in it.

Another most important reason is that it is very easy to get lost in the deep mountains, and you will never get out!

On the way out of the forest, Gu Li was very quiet. She carried a small bag and followed Gu Mancang closely. She racked her brain for a long time to find a reason to kidnap her father and change the route to the west.

We met more and more refugees on the road.

When they saw Gu Li's family walking out, they all turned their eyes to their packages of varying sizes.

If Gu Mancang and He Yunwang hadn't clearly held knives in their hands, they would have rushed over to snatch the things away.

Before Gu Mancang and his companions had completely left the forest, they heard more than one person saying that they were going to Xinjiang.

It is said that after the defenders of Gongzhou shot and killed two groups of refugees, they posted a notice outside the city wall. Someone who could read read it and it said that the imperial court had arranged a resettlement place for these displaced people.

In Western Xinjiang.

There were also guards at the city gates shouting at them not to go south any further. The imperial court had issued an order that no prefecture should leave refugees behind to disrupt the autumn harvest. If refugees rioted, they would be shot or taken to the border to do hard labor.

Gu Li breathed a sigh of relief, finally receiving the good news.

"Dad, let's change our route and go west!"

Gu Mancang still hesitated, "You and Yi Bo and the others-----"

"Dad, didn't they leave without waiting for us? We have always been on our own!"

Gu Mancang frowned, "Xiao Li'er, you can't say that. They all have their own families. I won't feel at ease if they delay the entire escort agency because of me. Besides, they left us-----"

Gu Li interrupted, "Dad, your family is by your side now, you can also change your route to Xijiang for your family!"

Gu Mancang remained silent.

"Dad, no matter how far Uncle Tongyi and the others go, even if they have already reached Liuzhou, they will be driven to Western Xinjiang. Why don't we go to Western Xinjiang first to find out the situation."

Gu Li tilted her head and looked at her tall father. "Although I don't know what the situation is in Wufeng and Danshan, it's not a bad place to accommodate so many refugees. Whoever arrives first can choose a place to stay and make plans first!"
