Chapter 2 The Exiled Family

"Mother, I'm hungry too..."

Yin He, who was nine years old, also whispered, let alone Brother Han, even he couldn't bear the hunger caused by not eating for two days, but he didn't dare to cry to Zhen Shi, after all, his grandfather still Sit on top.

It is said to be the first one, but in fact it is just the only bamboo stool in the mud-tiled house. Yin Zhenghong is over half a hundred years old. He has been an official for several years. It smelled a bit like a lost dog when it got up.

"Wait a second, Miao'er has always been an idea, maybe they can find something to eat."

Yin Zhenghong has always been strict, but at this moment there is only a desolation in his heart.

The Yin family...Is it true that there will be no future?

As the sun sets, the night of early spring still comes very early, and the entire Changling Village is shrouded in a thick dark blue. Luo Xiaobao, who has finished eating the buns, climbed to the next wall while his family was not paying attention.

Unexpectedly, he saw two wet long-haired women open the door next door. Because it was already late, the room was even darker and could not see anything.

Ma Cuihua poured the water for washing dishes and pots into the basin, and the water with oily flowers would be used to feed pigs and chickens. As soon as she turned around, a small person suddenly hugged her leg behind her.

"Luo Xiaobao, mother is busy, you go to the backyard to play with your father for a while."

Ma Cuihua knew it was Luo Xiaobao without even looking.

"Mother, I just saw a female ghost, so scary."

Luo Xiaobao felt the familiar temperature before he dared to say what he saw.

"What child ghost?"

Ma Cuihua was afraid that Luo Xiaobao would be frightened by something, so she threw down the thing in her hand and squatted down and asked.

Luo Xiaobao's grandfather Luo Dingkai also put down the axe he was chopping wood after hearing this. Could it be that something happened next door?

"If you want me to tell me, let's go and find Lizheng, so that nothing goes wrong."

Luo Dazhi said.

It has been six or seven days since the family next door moved in, but there has never been smoke from the chimney on the roof of the stove. These days, not only are the wooden fences outside the courtyard closed, but all the doors in the courtyard are also closed. of.

In addition, the next door had an accident before, and when Luo Xiaobao said that there was a female ghost there, the three of them couldn't help but get scared.

…

In the mud-tiled houses next door, Yin Miao and Mrs. Wei, who were mistaken for female ghosts, took off their wet clothes and put on the only two pieces of clothing left at home.

Yin Miao was wearing the clothes of her cousin Yin He. Although the two were not far apart in age, there was still a gap in their stature. This outfit was obviously shorter on her body, but the whole family did not care.

Because their attention was all on the small pile of taro that Yin Miao and Wei Shi brought back.

The muddy taro looks big, round, and fresh.

"Grandfather and grandmother, this taro is edible, let's cook it on fire."

Yin Miao said.

"Yes, yes, my husband is hot, Zhen Shu, go and wash these things."

Yin Zhenghong happily ran to the kitchen room after instructing his second daughter-in-law, only to turn back after a while: "This fire... How do we make it? Have we brought a fire certificate?"

"I can't draw water either."

The second daughter-in-law Zhen Shu also said aggrievedly.

“…”

Yin Miao helped her forehead, how could she forget that the Yin family was brought up by her great-grandfather who was born in the wild and made great achievements. Although her grandfather and father's generation did not look like their heydays, and even declined, but these poor days were not enough. never had.

The grandfather Yin Zhenghong never took a concubine, and the grandmother Liu gave birth to three sons, Yin Bowu and Wei in the first room, Yin Bowen and Zhen in the second room, and Yin Chengyun and Zhang in the third room.

Yin Miao's father, Yin Bowu, was a lieutenant on the expedition, and Yin Chengyun, the third housekeeper, joined the army as an assistant to Yin Bowu.

It was just that Nanxiao had been carefully preparing for several months, but the news of defeat was ushered in. The main general, King Xuan, betrayed the North Rou country. Tens of thousands of soldiers were scattered, and the North Rou country won without a fight. Unfortunately, Yin Bowu and Yin Chengyun were also among those sacrificed.

After losing the war, it is also a responsibility to be a lieutenant. In addition, the Yin family has not achieved much in recent years, so the emperor of Nanxiao seized the Yin family with a wave of his hand, and exiled the Yin family to the far northern border. --Changling Village in Changling County.

Today is the seventh day that their family was exiled here.

Yin Miao looked at the family who were used to brocade clothing and jade food with a headache, oh no, it was a family that did not work hard and did not distinguish between five grains. Except for Wei Shi and her real mother, she looked almost the same. Cun Guang also discovered that even the grandfather and grandmother were exactly the same as her deceased grandparents!

She didn't know why, but thought it was a big surprise after she entered this world.

Just for now…

Yin Miao looked at the bitter-looking family and said sternly, "Grandfather, I heard before that Huozhezi can only be used by powerful families. In our current situation...it probably doesn't exist."

"Then what should we do? If only Qiaoxiang Qiaofeng and the others were here, the two of them will definitely have a solution."

The second house's Mrs. Zhen misses it, but it's a pity not to mention the maids like Qiaoxiang Qiaofeng. They didn't even leave a decent brocade clothes from the Yin family, and the officials who raided the house only kept a few coarse clothes for their servants. gave them.

"Yeah, that's how we live."

Weiss began to be pessimistic again.

"Hey! If only I could use this leg."

The second room Yin Bowen angrily smashed his fist into his thigh. The only people in the family who can do it are women and children. He has never hated his leg disease as much as he does now.

"Mother, second uncle, don't say that. Although our home was stolen, our lives are still there. Keep the green hills here, so we won't be afraid of running out of firewood."

Yin Miao was afraid that Mrs. Wei would lose her mind again, so she quickly persuaded her.

"Sister Miao'er is right, no matter how hard we are, we can't starve a few children. In the future, don't think about the past life, you have to do everything by yourself!"

Liu Shi couldn't help but look at Yin Miao a few more times, this child... seems to be different.

"Mother, Sister Miao, I'm so hungry."

Brother Han pulled Yin Miao's sleeves and looked up and said, although the room was extremely dark, the pure eyes of the little child made her heart soft.

"I'm going to my neighbor to borrow something to see if there is anything to start a fire."

Yin Miao touched Brother Han's little face and then decided.

As he was talking, the voices of villagers came from outside the courtyard, and it seemed that someone was calling them.

The    family opened the door and found that it was the one they had seen in Changling Village the day before.

Lizheng Wei Xingchang saw that someone came out, and he was relieved a little. If the people inside didn't come out again, he would forcefully rush in with a few people.

After all, there have been cases where exiles were starved to death in their houses.

"Wei Lizheng, may I ask this?"

Yin Zhenghong, the grandfather of Yin Miao, stepped forward and asked.
