Girlfriend's Fortune

Chapter 469 Chapter 460 Eight: Returning Home
The granddaughter insists on using five acres of land to grow peppers, what else can old Yuan say?
Thinking of the good stuff of dried chili bean paste, she took a hoe and went down to prepare the ground herself.

When she was still in her natal family, she often worked in the fields, but after she married, the Song family had no land, so she didn't need to work in the fields.

But she is still proficient in growing vegetables, and she has to grow them every year.

Song Qiu saw that she had become interested and wanted to clear the land, but she didn't stop her, and there was nothing left and right, so she also picked up a hoe and followed.

Adding A Ling, Tian Ping and Wang Guizhuang, five acres of land, and five people, it took only a few days to get it all together.

It was the time for weeding and plowing, and Lishugou was bustling for quite a while.

As for the war in the south, there are also various news.

On February [-]th, Changsheng's army took back Longzhou again, and Changle's army retreated to Bingzhou.

On February [-]th, the Ever-Victorious Army took advantage of the victory and pursued them like a broken bamboo. They retreated to Bingzhou and Qinzhou one after another. The Changle Army suffered heavy casualties and retreated to Mayang Pass to hold on tenaciously.

The Changsheng Army regrouped in the pass, ready to take back Mayang Pass at any time.

The momentum was very good, and the news was sent back one by one. Gradually, people who had left their hometowns returned to their hometowns one after another.

There are also businessmen who continue to start the trade route to the south.

On the official road, there was an endless stream of motorcades and pedestrians, and it was very lively.

The high-ranking and powerful families are as mighty as when they left.

But many ordinary people saw some staggering steps. Compared with the light clothes when they left, they were even more shabby now, and their faces were sallow. It could be seen that the life of escaping was not easy.

It was meal time, and when passing by the Songshan Inn, the rich stopped to have a meal before leaving, but many people just smelled the aroma inside and swallowed their saliva, and continued to move forward with difficulty.

Some children were so hungry that the adults in his family comforted him weakly and also comforted himself: "Baby, bear with it, it will be fine when you get home."

Song Qiu was busy with all the work, and came up from Zhuangzi to the village every day to see the progress of building the house, and then went back to Zhuangzi slowly after having lunch at the inn.

In the past few days, I have seen many returnees.

Listening to the words of the woman outside the inn, she couldn't help but sigh.

Whether it's fleeing from famine or fleeing from disaster, it's hard for a poor family to get rich and have no money.

If they had heard the news and ran out at the beginning, they had no money in their hands and went out to eat and drink, it would not be much better.

Although she sighed, she didn't do anything kind to give these people some food for free.

There are too many people returning home hungry, if she starts this way, she won't be able to end the game by stabbing a hornet's nest.

So this kindness cannot be sent out casually.

She could only watch as the woman coaxed the baby and continued to move forward with difficulty.

These people include Jingzhou Mansion, and Longzhou Bingzhou. They fled to Jingzhou Mansion when Lingnan Pass was lost, and then fled north.

There is still a long way to go home.

Especially the latter, those who left their hometown a few years ago have suffered even more, and are now in a panic.

This is fleeing, as long as you escape from your hometown, it is very rare.

Fortunately, the army led by King Changshan quickly stabilized the battle situation, won successive victories, and retreated the Changle army.

If Changle's army were to continue to march northward, at that time there would be refugees everywhere, not to mention robbing people for food, murdering and setting fire, people were very hungry and chaotic, anything could happen.

Song Qiu turned around and went into the inn. Suddenly there were too many guests, all the seats were full, and the kitchen was too busy, so she had to go sit down.

As soon as she entered, among the people coming from the other side of the official road, there was a group of four people, haggard and dusty, moving forward with difficulty.

The young boy couldn't walk anymore, he was tired and hungry, his feet were blistered, so he just sat down on the ground and complained, "I won't leave, I won't leave! I'm exhausted! It's all my mother's fault! If it wasn't for You are afraid of death, why did we leave Tangling County in such a hurry, how many hardships have we suffered along the way? And Dad! If it weren’t for your useless loss of things, at least we still have money to eat and a car to sit in! I’m hungry now I'm dead and exhausted, I won't leave, you want to go, you go!"

This is already the number of times he has complained along the way.

Thinking that he was studying in the academy so well, how would those in the academy think of him if he escaped?
It's okay to fight here, but now that Changle's army has retreated, they're back in despair, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look good.

Coupled with the hardships of the journey, I knew I shouldn't have listened to my mother and ran out of Dongling County.

Zhang Song kept complaining, but he forgot that he had heard a lot of news in the academy at that time, and thought that the Changle army would definitely come to Dongling County, so he quickly packed up his things and ran out to go north to the capital to catch up with his father of.

That's right, the group of four were none other than Zhang Songfeng, Zhang Meihua, and Zhang Pumpkin who had gone to the capital earlier.

To explain how Zhang Nangua left Dongling County on the first day after the Shangyuan Festival, and how he met Zhang Song and others who left later. Speaking of this matter, Zhang Nangua wanted to spit out two bowls of blood.

At first he left Dongling County to go to the capital. He was sitting in a luxurious carriage. He stopped to eat and drink when he met a town along the way.

Just because he was enjoying himself while walking, and he couldn't bear hardships and didn't want to hurry, so he was delayed for a long time. After walking for almost ten days, he was about to leave Qingping Mansion.

Then I heard rumors all over the street that Lingnan Pass was lost, and soon Jingzhou Mansion would suffer.

Hearing this, he was a little worried about his son and the others, so he decided to hurry.

Then it was unlucky, and I hadn't reached a place where I could stay until dark, so I had to park in the wild and sleep in the carriage.

After falling asleep, when he woke up, he found himself lying on the ground, not to mention the carriage and the coachman were gone, the money and tickets on his body were gone, and even the jade badge was gone.

In the wilderness, there is no one, Zhang Pumpkin really wants to cry but has no tears.

He guessed that the damn coachman stole his things, but he couldn't find anyone, and he had no tokens or money on him, so it was obvious that he couldn't continue to the capital.

All I could do was curse at the coachman for nineteen generations and then walk back.

Without a carriage, he only relied on walking. He ate a lot along the way, got blisters on his feet, stole food when he was hungry, and suffered a lot of beatings.

As soon as they walked back to Jingzhou Prefecture, they happened to meet Zhang Song and the others who were running northward from Dongling County in a mule cart.

When relatives meet, it is really tears.

Zhang Pumpkin was so hungry that he could only eat five roast chickens.

Zhang Song and the others learned that he had been robbed, not to mention the silver, and even the jade badge, so they couldn't help but blame him.

Zhang Nangua bitterly said that he knew that the carriage was rented from a car dealership, and that he would definitely be able to find the driver when he returned to Dongling County.

But the enemy country is about to attack, isn't it going to die when you go back now?
So the few people had to stay on the spot, thinking about how to wait to see how the battle went before deciding to go back.
