Gu Qing hasn't left the hospital yet. Hearing Gu Fei's cry, he hurriedly turns around and enters the house.

Gu Fei snorted and felt several liang of silver coins from under the pillow. "Brother, I know there is no money at home. I saved all this before. Take it to buy food first."

Gu Qing was surprised to receive the silver. Sister, are these silver still hidden in her shoes? How much it would hurt her feet if they were so big.

Gu Fei said again, "I'd like to ask brother one more thing. When I enter the city, I'll ask if the women's dependents of the Duke's house in Pingyang are still in the prison."

She was worried that the second young lady might be exiled.

Gu Qing nodded. "I'm going to the Yamen. I'll inquire carefully."

Gu Qing took the silver and went out. The father and son hurried to the city.

After a while, Li Chunhua held the grass, followed by a woman and a little boy.

Gu Fei propped up and smiled at her, "aunt."

This woman, Li Shi, is not only the daughter-in-law of her uncle, but also Li Chunhua's mother's aunt. It was Li Shi who led Gu Qing to marry Li Chunhua.

The little boy is Li's child. His name is Huzi. He is seven years old this year.

Li Shi took about ten eggs in his hand and put them on the Kang. "My aunt heard that you came back and didn't get anything else. She also saved some eggs at home to make up for you."

"Thank you, aunt. Is everything all right at home?" Gu Fei said, looking at Li Shi. He hasn't seen Li Shi for eight years. Li Shi is much older and his face is full of sadness.

Li sighed, "Alas, what's good? This year's success is not good. From the beginning of spring to now, there hasn't been a drop of rain. All summer grain has been confiscated, and this autumn grain can't be sown. What will the family eat in the future?"

Li Chunhua held the grass and sighed, "isn't it? I heard that several families in the next village have gone out to flee the famine. There's no way. They can't starve to death at home without food."

I had some savings in my family. In order to redeem my sister-in-law, my family was completely hollowed out. I don't know how to live in the future.

Two women sighed at him.

Gu Fei was shocked when he heard this. He suddenly remembered the history book he had memorized in the college entrance examination. In XXXX, there was a drought in five northern counties. The drought lasted for three years. The whole North had no harvest, so that there were ten rooms and nine empty houses, starving people everywhere, bark, grass roots, voles and insects. Everything that could be eaten in the field was eaten. Finally, there was no way to eat people.

Some have eaten their wives, some have eaten their sons, some have cut meat directly from corpses, and countless women and children have been sold to the south by traffickers.

Too many people died and no one collected their bodies. The corruption of the bodies bred bacteria and triggered the plague. Later, the whole North became a hell.

Gu Fei knows from his memory that it is the third year of Jiayou in the British Dynasty, and Jiayou is the year of the last emperor in the British dynasty!

According to the time when the British Dynasty perished, isn't this year around XXXX A.D?

The three-year drought began?

Gu Fei's heart trembled and desperately recalled the contents of the history book. The current emperor was called AI emperor. Since Jiayou's three-year drought in the north, the people in the north had no means to live. The central government gradually lost control of the place. The vassal monarchs separated and fought endlessly. Since then, the whole Kyushu has fallen into a turbulent period of up to 100 years.

Mommy, how could he cross into this era? Gu Fei suddenly felt that he was going to be cold.

What? What?
