Chapter 613: The Shen family

Chapter 613: The Shen family

Yu Dong did not know that she was being followed, the person who was following her ever since she came to the town was hiding behind the thick crowd of people,  after all the streets of the town were filled with all sorts of refugees and residents, how was she supposed to take notice of everyone? But Yu Dong who came to the town in a big carriage and was seen carrying out a bunch of things were seen by many and among these people was Shen Han Xing,  Shen Li's older sister.          

    

The Shen village was not far from the big river village which was why when the flood came, they were affected just as much as the Big river village people were, in fact, it would be better to say that they were affected even more because they did not have someone like Yu Dong to save them.      

More importantly, the Shen village was not as developed as the Big river village, the people in the Big river Village made houses from mud, bricks and wood. Only a few people like Grandma Fang and those who did not have much money with them made their houses from mud and straws, causing their houses to be broken under the pressure of the flood.      

With the other villagers by their side, these villagers who lost their houses still had a chance of building their houses back and what was more the villagers in the big river village were willing to help those who lost their houses.      

But the Shen village was different, no one had a strong and sturdy house built in the village and the second the flood arrived, the entire Shen village met with chaos and everything that they had was gone in the flood, no one had the money nor did they have any food left with them.      

In the beginning, everyone was still willing to help each other out but the second the resources around them started to deplete people started to get more and more stingy, it did not take long for the Shen village to fall into chaos as well. Fights for a small fish started to break out all over the village it got to the point where people were willing to break each other noses to snatch the fish from the other family, the fights started with small matters like snatching fish and breaking noses but later on, it became bigger and worse, the people of the Shen village were willing to kill each other when they saw that they did not have any food and had to share with others.      

At first, no one was willing to go this far after all, killing someone for a small matter like food was not right but then the resources started to get less and less, until one day one of the villagers who was the head of the family killed her entire family as well as neighbours all because she was worried that they will eat her share of food.      

As for the reason why the neighbours of the woman were killed? She killed all of them because she wanted them to hand their food to her but they refused and didn't hand their food over to her, this caused the woman to be pushed into a corner and then she killed them all just like she killed her family.      

That was when the villagers of the Shen village realised that they could no longer stay in the Shen village, if they were to stay then surely they will be killed off by someone.     

One by one the people from the Shen village started to leave, one of the families who left belonged to Shen Li. They originally did not want to leave but they were worried that they will be the next in line to be killed since they were able to save a little food, even though it was not much—— it was enough for them to survive till the town where they thought they will be able to get the magistrate to relocate them into another village.      

But when they arrived in the town they realised that there was more than one family seeking relocation in such conditions and that it will take a very long time for their family to get to another village.      

They all thought that they will be able to take shelter in the house of the big lady who married one of the mer children of their family and took him as her concubine. But who would have thought that the lady will refuse even allow them to enter her house! She clearly stated that she did not have enough money with her and could not offer any food to them and without even offering them a bit of her help, she sent them packing.     

Which was why they were living in the town while living off food that was being handed to them from others.     

Shen Hanxing was the apple of her mother's eye and she has always gotten what she wanted, her mother no matter what she has to do would listen to everything that she said to her, if not then her mer siblings would not have been sold one after another. She has been doted on for a long time and ate three meals a day, not once did she think that there will be a day when she will have to stay hungry for so long!     

She was out in the town to see if she could get some extra meal from somewhere because she was feeling very hungry but then a big carriage came to a stop and her attention was diverted, seeing that a rich woman has come to the town, Shen Hanxing wanted to beg for some money from the rich woman, this was why she walked over to where the carriage was but then ——     

But then she saw Yu Dong stepping out of the carriage and was left shell-shocked!
