Reborn Nongmen's little lucky wife

Chapter 64 Ask

The fog was heavy, and the men of several families took their boys among the flood of victims and ran towards the city gate.

Everyone was in a hurry and ran very fast. One step behind is a matter of one position behind. With so many victims, who knows if there will be food and clothing to collect when it is their turn?

Qin Saburo saw that all the victims were hula-la rushing towards the city gate, and he said to several adults, "I'll run fast, I'll go to the city gate first to take a seat."

Luo Wu said to Gu Jin'an, "Let's go too."

They have been familiar with Qin Saburo for a long time, and they do everything together. Qin Lao is also happy to see this. Erlang is too cold and does not fit in with the group. He can only rely on Saburo to establish a good relationship with the boys of several families.

Qin Saburo nodded: "Go."

The three of them ran towards the city gate like a gust of wind.

Gu Dexing, Gu Qingtian, Gu Qingliang, and Tian Erqiang didn't run away. They were frightened by many things on the road to escape. Most of the time, they followed their parents and were unwilling to act alone.

"Be careful, be patient, and don't conflict with other victims!" Gu Dashan shouted worriedly behind them, and before the words fell, the three of them disappeared.

Father Luo said: "You said it for nothing. Your brother An is fine. Although that stinky boy in my family doesn't talk much, he has an explosive temper. If he encounters someone looking for trouble, he will definitely not bear it."

Qin Laodao: "There is Saburo here, you don't have to worry."

Saburo's kung fu is better than Erlang's. It's very easy to protect Father Luo and Gu Jin'an when something happens.

Gu Dashan knew what Qin Sanlang was capable of, so he felt relieved and supported the third grandfather with Luo Fu. Several adults speeded up and ran towards the city gate.

After running for half an hour, he came to the city gate of He'an Mansion.

At this time, the city gate was already full of disaster victims, and the city gate was surrounded by three floors and three floors outside, and the ears were full of noisy sounds.

There was a yamen officer holding a gong, and after beating the gong five times, he shouted loudly: "No crowding, line up, get food and clothing with household registration! Whoever dares not to line up, whoever dares to make trouble, shoot to death!"

After speaking, he struck the gong five more times, repeating what he just said.

But the victims were already starving and red-eyed, and they couldn't listen to him at all. They just squeezed in front of the city gate, wanting to get food quickly.

Fortunately, the government had already sent a large number of guards to patrol the city gate. As soon as he saw the crowded pushing and shoving situation, the captain of the flag immediately dragged the victims out of the team with his soldiers and gave them a beating.

After beating hundreds of victims, the order at the city gate finally improved a lot.

There were ten teams lining up at the gate of the city. Qin Sanlang and the others were in the middle of the sixth team. When they saw the third grandpa coming, Gu Jinan immediately said, "You line up first, and I will bring the third grandfather and the others over."

Gu Jinan was smart, and instead of calling out to the third grandpa and the others, he quietly led them to where they were in line.If they were seen by the patrolling guards, they would drag a few adults out to fight.

After bringing some adults from the family, Gu Jinan said to the victims who were lined up in front and back: "My uncles, these are the adults from our families. We were lining up for the adults before."

When they first came to line up, they told the victims before and after the incident. Although the victims were dissatisfied with the number of adults they brought, they did not shout. Anyway, like Gu Jinan, they also came to line up on behalf of the village. , When the people from their village come, they will also squeeze in, and everyone will not lose.

Several families were lined up, but the team was moving very slowly, only moving a few steps in a quarter of an hour. They came early in the morning, and it was their turn to pick up the supplies until late in the afternoon.

At the front of the team, there were two tables. In front of one table stood two yamen who were responsible for distributing supplies to the victims. The yamen had knives hanging from their waists to prevent the victims from robbing things.

At a table sat two scribes who were writing.

The clerk glanced at Gu Dashan, who was at the front, and said, "Take out the household registration. Those who do not have household registration can leave now."

Gu Dashan hurriedly took out the household registration from the inner pocket of his coat, opened the household registration paper, and carefully spread it on the table in front of the clerk.

The clerk glanced at the household registration and frowned: "Your household registration is not quite right. Why is there only one piece of paper and no thick leather seal? Could it be that you stole it from someone on the way?" Some bad.

Gu Dashan was flustered when he was asked, but he remembered what Gu Jinli said to him last night, he quickly calmed down, and said with a smile: "Sir, my mother died early, and my father married the successor, and the household registration papers of the two rooms are separate. On the way to escape the deserted land, my stepmother wanted to sell my wife and children. The village and Qi Juren decided to divide the house for us and gave us the household registration paper of our house, so there was only one piece of household registration paper, and there was no thick leather seal. son."

After speaking, he took out the divorce papers and the posts given by Qi Juren, and put them on the table one by one for the clerk to look over.

He pointed to a few families behind him and said, "Sir, these are the villagers of our Gujia Village, and they can testify against the younger family."

Third Grandpa, Luo Fu, Uncle Tian, ​​and Gu Damu all spoke up for Gu Dashan.

Gu Dafu also said: "Sir, my father is the village head of Gujia Village. Our family can testify to Dashan that his family's household registration paper is real, not stolen."

After reading the household registration paper, the divorce document, and the post from the Qi Mansion, the clerk stopped thinking about finding faults and asking for money.The Qi Mansion's post was printed with the official seal, so it could be seen that the family met a nobleman on the way to flee the famine, and it was not easy to loot his family's money.

The clerk handed the household registration paper to the colleague next to him: "According to the household registration."

He asked Gu Dashan again: "Are you willing to go to Jiangnan? Jiangnan is a good place, there is no shortage of food, and it is better than He'an House. If you want to go there, you can sign up and pay [-] taels of silver as a deposit. When the time comes, we will arrange Ship, we will send you there together."

Gu Dashan was a little puzzled and asked: "Sir, didn't you say you can't continue south?"

The clerk said: "The victims are not allowed to go south in private, but we sent them there by the government. It's okay, the adults allow it."

The adults above were very opinionated about the resettlement of these victims, so they wanted to take the opportunity to send some of the victims to Jiangnan, which would not only reduce the pressure on the Jianghuai Prefectures, but also take the opportunity to make some money.

Hearing this, Gu Jinan asked the clerk with a smile: "Sir, how much money do I have to pay after boarding the boat? If the amount of money to be paid is not much, let's go back and discuss with the family."

When the scribe saw that they wanted to go to Jiangnan, he continued: "First, pay a deposit of [-] taels of silver, and after boarding the ship, each person will give another [-] taels of silver according to the head."

First, pay ten taels of silver as a deposit, and then give each person two taels of silver. This amount is quite a lot, and a few of them can't afford it.

Gu Dashan looked back at the third grandfather and the others. Seeing them shaking their heads, he said to the scribe: "Sir, we have escaped from the famine and now we have no money, so we will not go south."
