Chapter 24 Temporary Settlement
And just when he was worried, Yin Zhenghong brought his juniors to find him.
It was already night, the villagers had already rested, and it was hard to see villagers appearing on the road in the village. Wei Xingchang's daughter-in-law, Mrs. Zhou, looked at the Yin family members who came in large and small bags, and hurriedly greeted a few people to enter the door. And firmly dropped the bolt on the door.
"You are..."
As a Lizheng Wei Xingchang, it is not that he has not received the benefits of the villagers, but those are petty profits, and the Yin family's battle surprised him.
I saw Yin Bowu carrying a large bag of extremely heavy things that looked like hundreds of catties of food, while Yin Chengyun carried a sack of bulging mountain goods, Wei held a reed chicken in his arms, and the Yin family. The little girl also had something in her hand.
"Wei Lizheng, please help our family!"
Yin Zhenghong said in tears as soon as he entered the door.
This is also a decision made by the whole family. The household registration system in Nanxiao is very inconvenient. If they leave the Changling County area to go to other places, no matter which checkpoint they pass, they will need a document certificate, and the exiled person is not eligible to have this certificate. of.
In addition to the fact that the family has both old and young, staying in this remote Changling Village is their only choice now.
"Yin Lao's words are serious. Now the outside world is not easy to mix. As Li Zheng, I will not drive you away. It's just a matter of the court..."
Wei Xingchang was still worried that he would be implicated, but Zhou Shi, who was beside him, glared at him with disgust and said:
"You don't know how far we are from the imperial court? It would take two or three months to send a letter in a hurry. Besides, people who have been exiled by the imperial court for decades have never been asked. What are you worried about?"
Seeing that Wei Xingchang did not dare to refute, Yin Miao simply took out a piece of silver in her hand and put it on the wooden table next to it.
"Grandpa Lizheng, Miaoer has fallen in love with our village since she called us, and I want to live here with my family in the future."
Mr. Zhou's eyes were straightened, this little girl actually took out ten taels of silver? !
Could it be that although this family was exiled by raiding, they still have other abilities?
The silver on the wooden table also dispelled Wei Xingchang's last hesitation, he waved his hand and said, "You can stay here with peace of mind, just listen to my advice, don't show up in the county, and don't show up in the county. When there is trouble in the village, the villagers are easy to talk, and they don’t know when they go out.”
Wei Shi was overjoyed. She had always felt that these things were painful, but she didn't expect it to be effective so quickly. Is it really like what Miaoer said?
"That's right. I think you are all honest and honest people. Miaotou brought the villagers to find a lot of food before. How could Changling Village drive you away?"
Zhou Shi covered his mouth and laughed.
After the family left with great gratitude, Zhou shi picked up the silver ingot and put it in his arms.
"They are really willing."
Wei Xingchang also opened the heaviest-looking bag, and it turned out to be a bag of rice, which seemed to be half a stone.
"Hmph, haven't you heard that the camel is bigger than a horse, and they may have relatives in big places. Besides, the officials who escorted this family have already returned to Beijing, and those officials did not explain. How many people have been exiled, if something really happened, wouldn't it be over if you fooled it."
Mrs. Zhou poked Wei Xingchang in the forehead, and there were just a few more people. The elderly people in the village died in batches, and even Wei Xingchang was not sure how many people there were in the village.
"It makes sense, but you are smart."
Wei Xingchang was satisfied with the reed chicken and went to the chicken coop in the courtyard...
On the third night of Yin Bowu's return, the family finally resolved this important matter. Although the road ahead is slim, at least their family can stay here in peace for the time being.
Yin Miao's small savings of fifteen taels of silver was only twenty taels. Although there were still several hundred taels of copper, the third wife felt that they were now infinitely close to starving to death.
Once a person has experienced the feeling of hunger, he knows how tormenting hunger is.
"It's really impossible to sell the horses, and we can't leave everyone hungry."
In the early morning, Yin Bowu stood in the courtyard and looked at the three horses that accompanied them across a thousand miles, his eyes filled with reluctance.
"Can't sell horses."
Yin Miao said that in the past, she may have had the idea of being in one corner, but now both father and third uncle have returned, and they have also brought back a key character of the plot who has not yet woken up. If something changes one day, these three horses are their only one. means of transportation.
"Yes, bro, what will you sell today if you sell horses? You still have to find a safe way now."
Since Wei Lizheng reminded them not to appear in the county as much as possible, their original idea of making money could only be put on hold temporarily.
"Su Langzhong said that he wanted to accept me as a medicine boy, and there is also a monthly payment every month."
Yin He saw that the whole family was frowning, so he said.
Su Wanfeng will take time out these two days to observe the condition of the injured. Today Su Wanfeng put forward a suggestion that he can get started, but he has to start with the medicine boy.
"Miao'er digs herbs and He'er is a medicine boy. We big men can't rely on you to support us."
Yin Bowu couldn't help laughing and laughing. Even his wife and Mrs. Zhen were both long-term embroidered mothers in the county's tailor shop. His knowledge from childhood to adulthood made it difficult for him to accept the word "soft rice".
Yin Miao also wanted to cry but had no tears. She was trying to consume the food in the space, while the family was trying to earn copper coins to buy food. What a contradiction!
In the stove, Yunhe opened the lid of the rice jar and stared at it for a few seconds.
Yin Miao was about to sneak in quietly to put some rice, but she didn't expect Yunhe to be here too.
"There is not much rice." Yun Hedao.
"...Yes, I'm going to buy it. I heard that your master can use some rice soup?"
Yin Miao took out the rice washing pot, and without hesitation, scooped a few tablespoons of white rice into it and handed it to Yunhe, even though there was only a shallow layer of rice left in the rice vat at this time.
"Well, the master will be fine." Yun He took the rice bowl and said.
Tsk tsk, master and servant love each other deeply.
Yin Miao was a little moved. She understood the righteousness of the family and the country, and she also had a deep understanding of blood and kinship.
There is no blood relationship, no need to protect the family and the country, just relying on the word "loyalty", can a servant be loyal to his master and even sacrifice his life?
She decided to visit King Xuan on the sickbed.
Yun Jiang, who had been waiting in the room, didn't show any surprise when he saw Yin Miao coming in, he was wiping King Xuan's fingers with warm water.
Yin Miao looked at the man lying on the sickbed again, and she couldn't look away.
This is... too bad, right?
What about Moshang Xiaochunfengdu? She clearly saw an uncle with a stubborn, bony beard!
