Chapter 664 Strangers

Aunt Li only felt that all the questions Xi Gao asked were poking at their hearts and lungs, and she was very helpless.

"The road is not easy to walk. When it's cold, you can't get out of the sea. When it's hot, the fish spoils so fast that it's too late to send it out. You can't even pickle the fish before, because you can't afford salt!"

Xi Yao felt as if the fishing village had been abandoned, and he couldn't get out either vertically or horizontally.

"Isn't there any salt now!"

Destiny can be changed.

"Not everyone likes to eat fish!"

Xi Yao choked for a moment, only to think that it was all absurd!

Three people walked forward while chatting, but it was enough to pass the time.

At the intersection to the small village, we were greeted by a group of people on horseback...

Xi Yao saw the momentum of the man on horseback, and subconsciously became alert.

"Are you from here?" The man on horseback stopped them and asked condescendingly.

Aunt Li and his wife were so frightened that their legs were weak, and Xi Yao also pretended to be afraid and said shiveringly, "Yes!"

"Are there any strangers here?"

"No...no!" Xi Yao said timidly.

"What are you going to do?" Seeing that they were holding poles and other things in their hands, a scholar-like figure asked behind them.

"I'm going to my mother's house to pick straws!" Aunt Li said subconsciously.

Xi Yao's heart skipped a beat, and he secretly clenched his fists.

"What are you picking straws for?" People continued to ask.

"We are from a fishing village, we can't plant it ourselves, but there are no straws on the bed. When the sea breeze blows, it's wet and uncomfortable, so I went to my grandmother's house to ask for straws. It was like this in previous years!" Xi Yao regarded himself as a Aunt Li's daughter, said cautiously.

Aunt Li and his wife lowered their heads because they were afraid, so people didn't see the surprise in their eyes.

"Let's go, look for it over there." Seeing that there was nothing to ask, they immediately turned around and left, letting Xi Yao breathe a sigh of relief...

"Auntie," Xi Gao said immediately after seeing it, "I won't go with you if I have something to do. You pick the straw and go back to the village, and then tell Lao Yu, I'm going to the military camp, and I'll be back later!"

"Ah, you are alone, okay?" Aunt Li asked worriedly.

They live in fishing villages, and they are not naive.

Xi Yao came after him, rushing to the straw, and he didn't say he was going to the military camp at all.

The change of attention now must be because of the group of people just now.

She also didn't want those people to break the liveliness of the fishing village, but those people were riding horses, and they looked like they were not easy to mess with.

"It's okay, I know the way!" she said.

"That..." Aunt Li's man was silent all the way. At this moment, he suddenly said, "There is an ox cart entering the city at the intersection over there, passing the barracks, tell someone, you have to ask for money!"

"I have it on me," Xi Yao smiled gratefully at others, then waved goodbye to them.

Auntie Li looked at her neat back as she left, and said worriedly, "Don't worry about anything!"

It is not easy for the villagers to have an income. During this time, everyone is happier than the Chinese New Year. Even if they are tired and hard, they are fine, as long as they can make money.

Ayao is doing well, she sends money to everyone every day, never makes trouble or owes money.

"Let's hurry up!" her man urged.

The two quickened their pace...

Xi Yao walked casually, thinking about today's events in his heart.

This is the person who was brought in from there?

Either the salt was sold in the military camp, and people came here to inquire about it?
