Under absolute force, how dare the village chief Wang refuse to obey, and Qingfeng is still standing in front of him with a sword.
He hurriedly said to the villagers, "Don't hurry up and get food!" He didn't see that his life was still in the hands of others.
Five hundred catties of grain were carried away by Qingfeng and the others.
The wife of the village chief, Mei Yufeng, who learned that her son was beaten, stumbled over and saw the eldest son lying unconscious on the ground. Yes, my son, my poor son..."
The village chief Wang held a few pieces of silver in his hand, his eyes were scarlet, and he shouted at Mei Yufeng, "Why are you crying, why don't you go to Doctor Li!"
Across a hill, Mei Yufeng's earth-shattering cry could be heard clearly, Bai Wutong frowned, a little worried.
After a while, Qingfeng and the others came back. Seeing the grain bags on their shoulders, everyone was happy for a moment. After finding that there were only a few bags of grain, everyone's smiles solidified again.
Bai Wutong brought everyone up to meet them, "Just this food?"
The village chief Zhao sighed: "That's all, and because of these grains, I even started a fight with Tianlin Village next door."
When Bai Wutong learned of the cause and effect, her brows were tightly wrinkled. With such evil neighbors, even if Qingfeng stunned them once today, I'm afraid they will find other things next time.
The food was too little. Zhao Pengfei took the initiative to stand up and said, "I'm going hunting. The forest is quite deep, so there must be good things."
Following him, some villagers stood up and said, "We also have hunting experience. We will also set traps and make traps, and we can always bring back some prey."
There is no way to go hunting in the mountains. The village chief Zhao agrees: "Squirrels will hide food for the winter, and we can go to the squirrel holes."
Aunt Yang said optimistically: "If we can encounter bamboo forests and dig up winter bamboo shoots, we can dig out a field now and plant some radishes."
"On the way I came, I saw that the villagers here grow radishes in winter. I can't wait. We can eat radish seedlings first, and last for two months at most, and there will be more things to eat in spring."
How did the radish seedlings fill their stomachs? Even so, everyone was comforted by Aunt Yang's words.
As long as you grit your teeth for two months, everything will be fine.
How can I have the strength to build a house, reclaim the land, dig canals, plough the land without eating enough...
These piles of work are all work that can only be done when you are full, and you still need to have food.
Bai Wutong looked at Qingfeng, "If you don't have it in this village, go to other villages and ask from house to house. If you don't have it in other villages, just go to a farther place to buy it."
"Yes."
The half-old child Zhao Lei leaned in front of Bai Wutong and said firmly: "Madam, I can go to the town to find a living to support myself."
The bandits killed his parents. He was helped by the villagers all the way here, but he is most grateful to the Bai Wutong family. If it weren't for them, the villagers who were kind enough to feed him wouldn't have survived.
The other children and even the younger ones saw that Zhao Lei also stood up, clenched his fists with burning eyes and said, "Let's go too, don't waste food at home."
The children are so sensible and so sad.
The servants of the Cui family also stood up and said, "Let's go too." If it wasn't for the Lord's family not leaving them on the road, they wouldn't be able to live now, and they wouldn't have enough food, so they couldn't stay, and they would be a drag on the Lord's family. .
Cui Shiji frowned: "There are so many people, a few of you are wanted by a lying dry town, stay honest, stay and farm the land well, there will be a way to get food."
After he finished speaking, everyone's eyes turned to him, as if asking, what can be done.
Cui Shiji said: "The county magistrate of Pingyang County is our best friend. I can probably borrow some food."
Qinghe is a talented person, and the county magistrate of Pingyang County has basically studied in Qinghe since childhood. He has a close relationship with the brothers Cui Shiji and Cui Shize. Cui Shiji thinks that he should be able to find a way to lend them some food.
"Pingyang County is three days away from here. It takes at least a week to go back and forth. We only need to buy food for this week to survive."
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes lit up, if that was the case, that would be great.
However, Bai Wutong felt that it was too early to be happy, and people were unpredictable. What if his friend didn't borrow it, and now the government controls grain control is particularly powerful. As the county magistrate of a county, will he take risks for them?
Bai Wutong thought for a while and said, "If there is any accident, you can find the village to buy food on the way. It doesn't matter if the price is higher, as long as you can survive this winter."
They all heard what Bai Wutong meant in Cui Shijie's words. Qu Yuanxian might not lend them food. They thought it was unlikely, but they did not refute Bai Wutong's words. It was indeed safe to prepare with both hands.
Late at night, after dinner, the Cui family left for Pingyang County overnight.
Bai Wutong and Chu Tianbao huddled in the tent. One corner of the tent was probably not fastened properly. The wind came in. She felt cold and wanted to get up from Chu Tianbao's arms and tuck the corner of the tent.
As soon as she moved, Chu Tianbao opened his sleepy eyes and asked in a hoarse voice, "Miss, why don't you sleep?"
Bai Wutong covered him with a quilt, "You go to bed first, I'll be right back."
She got up from the quilt and walked to the corner, Chu Tianbao arched the quilt and sat up to look at her.
Bai Wutong stuffed the leaking tent corner and left the warm bed. After a while, his hands and feet became cold.
She blew a breath of hot air on her hands to ease the stiffness, and when she turned around, she saw Chu Tianbao wrapped in a quilt, his big dark eyes staring at her with a smile.
In an instant, his heart beat fast.
Bai Wutong walked over, "Didn't I let you sleep first."
Chu Tianbao giggled, stretched out his big warm hands, pulled her into his arms, wrapped her tightly with a quilt, and covered her little feet with his big feet.
The chill on Bai Wutong's body soon disappeared.
Bai Wutong leaned against his chest, listened to his strong heartbeat, looked at Chu Tianbao's beard and chin, and sighed in his heart.
After the house was repaired, Chu Tianbao had to sleep separately from her as soon as possible.
Bai Wutong closed her eyes again, and Chu Tianbao's fiery body was tightly pressed against her. She was used to it and didn't take it seriously~www.mtlnovel.com~ Suddenly, Chu Tianbao was next to her ear and said expectantly: "Miss?"
"Um?"
"Are we home?"
Bai Wutong answered without opening his eyes, "Hmm."
When Chu Tianbao heard this, he put his head under her eyes and said cheerfully, "Then let's stink now!"
Bai Wutong's drowsiness was like being blown away by a thunderbolt, and he opened his eyes suddenly, caught off guard, and a warm dampness came from his lips.
Chu Tianbao blinked his eyes ignorantly, and accidentally put his hand where it shouldn't be.
Thunder rolled in his head, seeing Tianbao and her current situation clearly, Bai Wutong changed his face suddenly, pushed Chu Tianbao away suddenly, "Go to sleep!" There was never before panic in his tone.
Chu Tianbao sticks up again in a flash, and perseveres: "The lady said that when she got home, she stinks with Tianbao."
