Chapter 433: Joy
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
After the carriage had traveled a few miles, the female brigand suddenly said to the coachman, Madam Du, to slow down a little. That mountain ridge is very unremarkable. You’ll miss it if you’re not careful.
After seeing what had happened to Miss Tian, she was already scared out of her wits and did not dare to hide anything from Lin Xu.
If she was facing a man now, she was confident that she could seduce him to let her live. However, she was facing a vicious woman who would never leave the mountain.
This made her seduction completely useless!
Madam Du pulled the reins and let the horse slow down. The female brigand moved her body and carefully observed the mountain road next to her.
She suddenly pointed to a spot and shouted, “It’s there!”
MO Ruyue and Gu Ying rushed all the way and only stopped when they were close to the survivor’s village.
The carriage was released from the space, and Gu Ying sat in the driver’s seat again.
“We didn’t go back all night, but we brought so much food and property back. They’ll be so happy to see it.”
MO Ruyue was also sitting on the shaft, leaning against the door of the
carriage. She was chatting with Gu Ying while looking back at the supplies in the carriage behind him.
“Food is what they need the most now. With this food, it’s enough for them to last until the new batch of food and vegetables ripen.”
Gu Ying also turned back to look and reached out to MO Ruyue.
“I have an endless supply of food in my space, but I really don’t have a better excuse to take it out. You being robbed is perfect.”
MO Ruyue laughed as she stuffed her free hand into Gu Ying’s. The two’s fingers were intertwined. Now that they couldn’t embrace each other, they would use this method to cuddle each other.
“What happened in that village is definitely not the first, and it will not be the last. It’s a pity that this country isn’t the Hua nation of my previous life, otherwise…”
Gu Ying stopped mid-sentence and shook his head.
In those memories that had become distant and blurry, only that country could be considered a warm color in their memories.
In the past, there was also a world-shocking natural disaster that attacked China. However, after the disaster, the Chinese people actively rescued and saved themselves, and countless touching stories emerged.
At that time, MO Ruyue was still young and just happened to be undergoing the cruel life and death trial in the assassin camp. Every day, she hovered on the line between life and death.
She had inadvertently seen the rescue operation that had lasted for more than two months on the internet. She was deeply touched by the camaraderie that had not been abandoned or given up. Blood was thicker than water.
At that time, she often fantasized that if she could continue to live and grow up in that country, would her life trajectory be different?
She had only told this to Gu Ying, so when facing a natural disaster like the meteor shower, and seeing the various tragic scenes that followed, the two of them could not help but recall that gradually fading memory.
“Gu Ying, do you think that in this time and space, in the next few hundred or even a few thousand years, there will be a great country like China? ”
“When people encounter natural or man-made disasters, they don’t have to worry about not having enough food and clothing, being robbed and tortured, or going through all kinds of hell on earth. Instead, they can get all kinds of timely rescue and help each other in the same boat?”
MO Ruyue didn’t know why she had suddenly become so emotional.
She knew very well that this was just a world in a book, and it was completely different from the situation in her previous life, but she couldn’t help but go back to fantasize.
What if… Would that day really come?
Bing ‘Er, this kind of thing also requires luck. Whether there will be one in the future or not, at least for now… There’s no such soil.”
Gu Ying answered seriously.
His feelings were not as deep as MO Ruyue’s, but one thing was clear. He also hoped that one day, such a country would really appear.
While they were talking, the survivors’ village was approaching. Almost all the men, women, old and young outside the village came out to work in the field, ready to start spring plowing as soon as possible.
Someone with sharp eyes saw a carriage coming this way. After taking a closer look, they saw that it was MO Ruyue and Gu Ying. They immediately turned their heads and shouted in joy.
“Everyone, look! Lady Qin is back!”
This shout alarmed everyone, and they all turned their heads to look. There were even those who were close to the path who dragged their farm equipment to the side of the road, ready to welcome the two people’s carriage.
“Lady Qin, Young Master Ying, both of you have returned! We were all worried when we didn’t see you last night!”
A man came over, too happy to know what to do.
“Yes, it rained so heavily yesterday. We were worried about whether you two had a place to take shelter from the rain, whether you ate or not, and whether you would catch a cold. We’re relieved to see that you’re safe and sound.”
“Lady Qin, we have already searched the land outside three times. After yesterday’s rain, the land has been full of water and even a bit flooded. Let’s make a water channel together to drain the excess rainwater.”
“Lady Qin, Young Master Ying, are you hungry? We brought some coarse grains and pastries before we went to the ground, if you don’t mind, why don’t you eat some to fill your stomach?”
Everyone gathered around and talked at once, all of them extremely enthusiastic.
“Alright, everyone calm down first. Lady Qin just came back and you all surrounded her, can’t you let her catch her breath?”
An old man stood up and said, finally bringing the somewhat out of control situation under control.
“I’ve made everyone worried, but we’ve also gained a lot from this trip. At least we didn’t go out for nothing.”
MO Ruyue could see the true joy in their eyes, as well as the well-hidden worry.
She could understand the survivors’ contradictory mentality.
To them, she and Gu Ying were not only their benefactors, they were also their backbones.
Before they could make any preparations, their pillar of support had suddenly disappeared. This caught them off guard, and it was inevitable that they would be terrified.
“Gather everyone and go back to the village. We won’t be working today.”
MO Ruyue was prepared to distribute the food now. He wouldn’t even delay it until tomorrow.
This batch of food, in addition to the life-extending elixir, was also the seed of hope.
When the plundered rich people were escaping, they brought a variety of grain, including coarse grain, fine grain, and even vegetable seeds.
For the survivors, it was a timely rain.
This meant that they didn’t have to be stingy and save food for farming.
The survivors looked at each other. Although they didn’t know what MO Ruyue had brought back, their instinctive trust made them obey MO Ruyue’s orders without hesitation.
“Soon, the people who were working in the field came back one after another.”
Everyone gathered in the village square, waiting for MO Ruyue to reveal the answer.
Although Deng Feng was resting in his room, he had also received the news that MO Ruyue had returned. He wanted to attend the gathering even though he was on crutches.
However, before he could get out of bed, he was held down in time.
“Brother Deng, if I was one step late, would you have gotten out of bed and left the house?”
MO Ruyue left Gu Ying outside and came back to check on Deng Feng. She didn’t expect to see such a scene as soon as she entered the room. “Benefactor, where did you guys go yesterday? It’s raining so heavily outside, and it’s so cold at night. Do you have a place to hide from the rain?
Although Deng Feng had been caught red-handed, he was still asking about MO Ruyue’s condition with concern.
“We’re doing fine. I’m going out to do something now. Brother Deng, you can wait here for me to come back.”
MO Ruyue comforted Deng Feng and then returned to the square..
