"Sigh!"

Early in the morning, Nona wanted to go out and see if she could buy some daily necessities. Although there was no shortage of food in the room, there was no such thing as soy sauce or vinegar. However, she did not expect to find that the bustling shops on both sides of the street were closed. Other than one or two people who walked past, not a single person was to be seen.

Seeing this scene, Nona could not help but sigh helplessly. Recently, the Jincheng City had become quieter and quieter. Compared to when they first arrived, it was like the difference between heaven and earth. Nona still remembered when she and Min'er first arrived at Jincheng. Although the road was full of ruined villages and people who couldn't eat their fill, the villages around Jincheng City were not bad and there weren't many people at the city gate.

In the past few days, she had been paying special attention and discovered that there were more and more victims at the city gate. The city gate could be entered as long as the money was given. Now, there was no place to send the money. The city gates were completely closed. Even if they wanted to leave the city, it wouldn't be an easy task. Nona couldn't stop herself from feeling happy or sad. The happy thing was that it didn't matter whether they were here or not, they had finally come in. Moreover, there was enough food in the space for them to eat, so they didn't have to worry about starving to death. But...

Not everyone was as lucky as he was. He didn't need to starve to death, but more people …

When she thought about how hungry people were to the point that they could even eat their own children, Jiu Niang's heart skipped a beat. Honestly speaking, if she hadn't seen this scene with her own eyes, she wouldn't have believed it. In the past, her teacher had once mentioned in history that when there was a famine, a change in food would happen. At that time, she felt like she was simply listening to the Book of Heaven, but now …

He didn't expect that these things would happen to him so suddenly, and he nearly became someone else's meat.

"Forget it, forget it …" "It's useless to think too much …"

For some things, the more he thought about it, the more frustrated he felt. Besides, no matter which way he went, he couldn't do anything about it. He was just a little girl, and to be able to protect himself in this situation was already a good thing.

Thinking of the novels he had read previously, those female protagonists who were as wealthy as a nation and as proud as a martial arts world … As for himself …

"Damn it, novels kill people."

When she thought about those glorious protagonists in novels and then thought about herself, Jiu Niang couldn't help but curse.

This is really killing me. No matter what, I am a transcender, but what did I get? Before he could figure out what was going on, he was abandoned by his family. This damn thing had finally settled down and met with a calamity, then whatever, he had encountered a calamity, and he almost became someone else's food. After going through countless hardships, he finally arrived at Jincheng City. After all, the Jincheng City was one of the largest cities besides the capital city. He clenched his teeth and paid the price to buy a house. But now, it seemed that Jincheng City wasn't safe. Not to mention other things, just the people outside the city who were affected by the disaster, the people who were extremely hungry, could do anything.

Although the city walls of Jincheng City looked quite sturdy, no one could guarantee that they would be safe. It looked like it was time to think about his future path …

As Jiu Niang thought about it, she walked back home. Situ Xi and Min'er were the only ones in the house, so she didn't feel reassured. Although Situ Xi repeatedly promised that there wouldn't be any problems, she was still worried.

As she thought of this, she unconsciously quickened her steps. She did not expect to see someone scurrying out just as she was about to reach home.

Hah!" "As she was deep in thought, she buried herself in the ground and walked forward. Suddenly, a figure appeared before her. She was startled and took a deep breath before quickly taking two steps back.

"It's really you! I've finally found you!"

Before Ninth Madame could react, that person grabbed her hand. A pair of shriveled hands tightly gripped her hand, tightly grasping it, as if he was afraid that she would run away.

This sound... It seemed like she had heard of it before, but why couldn't she remember it now?

Nona raised her head and a familiar face appeared in front of her …

"Mother?"

Right, this person wasn't Gu Yu Shi, who else could that cheap mother of hers be?

She looked better than before, wearing a half-new cotton jacket and a pair of white cloth shoes. Although her hair was a bit messy, there was a silver hairpin in her hair that wasn't too thin. Although these things were common for ordinary people, not to mention the current Nona, who was not short on money.

However, she was still unhappy in her heart.

She clearly understood the situation in her own house. If it wasn't for the fact that her house was in such a mess, she wouldn't have gone out every day just to get some worthless herbs to trade for a few copper coins.

However, the silver hairpin on Mrs. Gu Yu's head was obviously an old item. It definitely wasn't something that had recently been bought. In other words, it had always been there, but she had never thought of taking it out. When he had just transmigrated over, his body was extremely weak. With a fever that wouldn't subside even after three days, there wasn't even a stammer at home, much less a doctor. Gu Jinyu was always beside his bed accompanying him, so she didn't dare to use ice water to cool him down at night …

Initially, she thought that the price was really low for ten days and that there was no money at all. However, now that she saw the silver hairpin on Lady Yu's head, she suddenly felt that it was a bit unsightly.

"Why are you here?"

Originally, her heart was a little excited when she met her mother.

After all, he didn't even know what had happened, and when he went back, his house was already empty. Along the way, although she didn't say anything, she still cared a lot about them. After all, they were the only family she had in this world.

However, when her gaze fell on the silver hairpin on Gu Yu's head, she felt as if someone poured a bucket of cold water over her. Her originally excited mood instantly calmed down. She calmly removed Gu Yu's hand, while Jiu Niang silently looked at her.

"This is not something you should be concerned about. I haven't even asked you, why are you here? What kind of family was this? And you're wearing it, where did you get the money from? " Gu Yu's face was gloomy as she coldly stared at Jiu Niang. Not only did she not answer her question, she even asked a bunch of questions.

She didn't think that Gu Jinyu would leave in such a bad mood. She had been searching back and forth in the vicinity these past two days, wanting to see if she could meet Gu Jinyu. Don't think that she didn't know that the Gu family valued Gu Jinyu very much. The two teachers in the academy were the best proof of that. However, that Gu Jinyu had no conscience and had abandoned her and left by herself.

She had been on the verge of despair. How could she return to the Gu family without Gu Jinyu?

Even if he were to fall in the capital, the Gu family would not be able to see him. Just as she was considering whether she should go back or not, she suddenly saw a person who looked very much like Nona. It was just that the distance was quite far, and by the time she rushed over, she was already gone.

She asked around and finally decided on this mansion. She had been waiting here the entire time. She hadn't expected that she would actually be able to find it.

"Is that all right with you?"

It wasn't that Nona hadn't thought of reuniting with him, but she just hadn't expected it to be like this. The first person she saw when she woke up was Gu Jinyu. The person who spent the most time with her at home was only Gu Jinyu, while Gu Yu usually left early and returned late every day, so they had very little time together.

If it wasn't... After all, a woman had two children with her, and one of them had an eye disease. Such a life was very difficult, one could understand just by thinking about it.

However, reality gave her a resounding slap on the face. At the same time, it made her understand that many things were not what she had seen.

Just like now, when he saw Gu Yu, he couldn't help but feel joy in his heart. After all, they were a family … But... However, she saw that what she thought of was not how she managed to escape to this place, but rather … The first thing she noticed was his clothes. She couldn't help but think that if she squatted in the corner and begged for food while wearing a tattered outfit, wouldn't she just walk past her without even looking at him …

"Humph!" What do you mean it has nothing to do with me? "You are my daughter, you crawled out from my stomach. Everything you have was given to me by my mother." Gu Yu didn't expect Jiu Niang to reply like this, so her face darkened. "You have money to buy good clothes, but you're not using it to honor this old lady. You've really hardened your wings."

Gu Yu's eyes were practically glued onto Ninth Mother's body. To be honest, Ninth Mother's clothes weren't considered good. She wasn't used to silk and silk, so she finally chose a relatively soft cotton cloth. These were all arranged by Situ Xi and not only her, but also Min'er's and Situ Xi's. After all, they had been running all the way here.

However, even this 90% new cotton clothes were very eye-catching in Gu Yu's eyes.

"Wear, wear, wear, you only know how to wear. Don't look at your face, it's so ugly, even if you wear silk and silk, you're still an ugly ghost, what's there to wear. Take it off for me! "

Not only had he been chased out of the city, but his son had also left him behind. Now, not only could the Gu family not go, but he also had to sneak around in Jincheng City. These days, the city had been filled with constables, people who had been investigated everywhere, and those who had been found to have no household registration had all been chased out.

The past two days had been quite scary for her. She had been discovered and thrown out when she was distracted. As for her, not only did this little bitch eat well and live well, she was also wearing clean clothes. From the looks of it, these clothes shouldn't be cheap at all.

"What are you doing!"

Nona never thought that this Gu Yu would suddenly rush forward to pull at her clothes. She was shocked and her expression changed. She yelled and wanted to retreat.

However, how could Gu Yu give her such a chance? With one hand tightly pinching Jiu Niang's arm, she forcefully pulled Jiu Niang in front of her. With the other hand, she didn't waste time and immediately pulled towards her lapel. At that moment, she only had one thought in her mind, and that was that this little bitch wasn't worthy of wearing such good clothes. If it wasn't for her back then, she wouldn't have been kicked out of the Gu family. However, Gu Jinyu had been keeping a close eye on the scene. She didn't even have a chance to make a move.
