Chapter 1: Getting abandoned

_Take these things and get out.

   A small cloth bag was trow onto the ground in front of Gu Yundong, the bag opened revealing a dozen of small shriveled potatoes.

  Gu Yundong leaned on the big rock behind her, har face pale and weak. She raised her head and met a woman's mean face.

   She also finally figured out her current situation—she had transmigrated, from the last days where zombies were rampant, to the Kingdom of Jin, to become a thirteen years old peasant girl with the same name and surname. A father, a mother, and a pair of younger siblings.

   In the 17th year of Hongqing, the Yongning Prefecture had no harvest due to drought, and the people were struggling to make a living.

A large number of refugees had began to migrate to the nearby state capitals to survive.

Their big family was on the way to escape from the famine, and it has been more than half a month since they left Yongning Prefecture.

The person in front of her who threw the potatoes at her with a charitable expression was Mrs. Zhao, the grandmother of the original owner.

There were more than ten people from the Second uncle and the Third uncle standing next to them, all of them watching indifferently as the family of four was driven out of the group.

  Gu Yundong didn't have any strength left in her body, this was because she had been hungry for a long time, she was dizzy, and couldn't straighten her body even a little.

She looked away, ignoring the Zhao family, her eyes swept over to the second uncle and third uncle's family who were standing on the sidelines, and finally fell on the old man Gu who was sitting on the stone.

  Mrs Zhao was her step-grandmother, while Old man Gu was her real grandfather.

Old man Gu was a little uncomfortable when he met Gu Yundong's clear eyes.

He coughed lightly, and after a while he sighed softly.

_Yundong, don't blame us, it's really difficult for everyone, there is not much food left. You don't have strong labor force in your branch, and your mother is an idiot. She can't work, all she does is sleep and eat. The world is too chaotic, and everyone can't even take care of their own families. Come on, you guys, just ask for heaven blessings. This bag of potatoes is enough for you to survive two days. For later, you need to figure it out yourselves. Whether you can survive or not is also Heaven's will."

   Gu Yundong secretly sneered, she had lived in the end times for two years, and she had long experienced the sinister nature of humans.

Old Man Gu was not afraid of being struck by thunder when he was clearly doing something evil and was still finding excuses to pass it as Heaven's will.

It was a pity that she did not have the strength now, otherwise how would she let him say so much nonsense ?

   She was disdainful. But a small figure beside her stubbornly wiped his eyes and said with a choked voice, "We have strong labor, my father disappeared while luring away robbers, he will come back, you, you... "

  Gu Yundong knew that he was the original owner's younger brother, Gu Yunshu, who was only five years old this year, but he looked only three or four years old.

  The original owner's father was Gu Dajiang.

Two days ago, they encountered a group of robbers. Gu Dajiang and Second uncle Gu Dahe acted as bait to draw the rogue's attention and give them a chance to escape.

Later, Gu Dahe came back, but Gu Dajiang disappeared.

In the eyes of everyone, Gu Dajiang was most likely killed by the gang of rogues.

   Little Gu Yunshu refused to believe it, he felt that his father was still alive and would definitely come back.

Old Man Gu didn't want to say more, he just waved his hand and said, "Okay, that's it, take care of yourselves."

He paused for a while, he couldn't bear to part with his grandson, and asked Gu Yunshu, "I can take you with me. Why don't you come with us."

Mrs Zhao was unhappy "Why bring him? Whe don't have enough food for ourselves and his share is gone. If you want to follow, you can find food yourself and eat dirt ..."

   Before she could finish her sentence, Gu Yunshu had already grabbed Gu Yundong's hand, the corners of his mouth were clenched tightly, "I'm with my eldest sister."

  Gu Yundong subconsciously withdrew her hand, she was not used to having physical contacts with people. Especially in the last days, it has become almost instinctive to guard against people approaching. But she did not have muchstrength now, the little boy was holding her fingers tightly as if he was afraid that they would be separated.

   Because of this, Gu Yundong could clearly feel his small, thin and trembling hands, she pursed her lips, and finally said nothing.

   Old Man Gu was stimulated by Gu Yunshu's evasive attitude, and stood up a little annoyed, "As you wish."

After finishing speaking, he left directly with Mrs Zhao and the others.

  Mother Yang, who had been standing beside Gu Yundong, was confused.

She was carrying a pannier and there was a three-year-old girl in it. She was sleeping drowsily and such a big movement did not wake her up.

Seeing that Old Man Gu and his group leave, Mother Yang also followed for a few steps at a loss.

When she turned around and saw that Gu Yundong and Gu Yunshu were still in the same sport, she hurried back, squatted beside her and asked "Dongdong ?? Go, go..."

  Madame Yang's brain was not very good, but she could recognizes people. She still hasn't figured out that they were abandoned by the Gu family.

She was just wonderering why the Gu family didn't wait for them.

  Gu Yundong was still recovering her strength, she was struggling to speak now, let alone explaining anything.

It was Gu Yunshu who comforted Yang in a low voice, "Mother, Eldest sister is tired, let's leave later."

His eldest sister had fainted before, and because of this, their grandpa finally had an excuse to leave their family behind.

   Gu Yunshu was worried, his father was missing, his elderd sister was sick again, the mother was ignorant, and the younger sister was getting weaker. He was now the only male in the family. Although he was only five years old, he also had the responsibility of taking care of his family.

  Gu Yunshu tried his best to straighten his small body, and then looked at Gu Yundong who had closed her eyes to rest.

   At this time, Gu Yundong was very happy. She had survived for a year in the last days, and she had the mentality of living day by day.

Although this place was also a chaotic world, at least there are no zombies, no mutated animals and plants here.

After the famine, her life will graduakky improve.

The future here was full of hope.

   As for the original owner's family...

After all, for giving her a chance to be reborn, as long as they don't cause trouble for her, Gu Yundong will repay her and won't leave them behind.

   Just as she was thinking about it, the sound of hurried footsteps suddenly came to her ears.

   She raised her head slightly, and saw her Second uncle Gu Dahe, who had left and returned.
