Chapter 126 The Catastrophe of Xia Youcai
Chapter 126 The Catastrophe of Xia Youcai
Xia Daohua's complexion changed slightly, and she couldn't help but feel aggrieved.
She spends money and things, and spends time and energy, for whom?
However, thinking about Jiang as a mother, she must be very worried when she encounters such chaos, but her child has disappeared, and she can't ask others to look for her, so she didn't say anything.
Seeing that Xia Daohua was silent, Mrs. Jiang couldn't help but patted her on the shoulder twice:
"You child! Mother asked you something! Where did you go? Are you dumb? Why don't you say anything!"
"Okay!" Hearing this, Mrs. Zhou scolded Mrs. Jiang dissatisfied, then turned her head and said to Xia Daohua:
"Just come back. See what you have to bring, and take it as soon as possible.
When the letter arrives from Lizheng, let's go on the road together. "
Xia Daohua looked confused:
"On the road? Where are you going?"
Mrs. Zhou glanced at Xia Daohua, and explained simply:
"The northern barbarians came calling and set fire to the forest in Baihuapo, Wang Lizheng made everyone ready to flee.
However, word came from the front just now that Qianhusuo sent troops.
If the northern barbarian tartars who came back here were harassed by a small group of troops, we don't have to worry about it.
So we are all here waiting for the letter.
Seeing that you have not come back for a long time, your mother is anxious.
Just hurt you a few words, hit you twice, I was too worried about you, so don't hold grudges. "
Xia Daohua nodded lightly: "Grandma, don't worry, I'm not that kind of person. Besides, my mother and I are real mother and daughter, so there's no need to hold grudges."
She paused, and felt that she should give her family a reassurance:
"When I came back from outside, I saw people from our Qianhusuo, dragging several horses, and some northern barbarians, whether they were alive or dead, heading towards the town.
I reckon that we shouldn't need to flee for the time being. "
A roomful of serious-faced people immediately beamed with joy when they heard this.
Erlang couldn't sit still: "I'll go out and have a look!"
Sun raised her hand and pulled Erlang's sleeve, wanting him not to go, but she didn't.
Erlang ran out with a gust of wind under his feet.Less than a quarter of an hour later, he ran back again:
"Many families have sent one or two sons outside to wait for the news. The old Lu family opened the gate of their house, and the whole family is waiting for the news in the yard!
Uncle Lizheng also only said that we should not leave in a hurry and wait and see.
You guys just rest in the house, I'll wait outside. "
Erlang was worried that he would never return, and the family was anxious, so he came back to say something.
Everyone waited for nearly half an hour before they got the letter.
The northern barbarian Tartars who attacked had only a small team of about 300 people.
Except for the more than [-] people who were captured, the more than [-] people who died in the forest fire, and the more than [-] people who were trampled to death by the frightened horses, the rest have all fled.
However, the troops sent by the Thousand Households worked hard, so naturally they had to collect some tribute from the villages they passed by...
Beiguan Village can be regarded as a middle class, with a total of three pigs, ten sheep, and one mule, plus 30 taels of cash, which can be regarded as a labor force.
These three pigs belonged to Hu Tuhu's family; the ten-cavity sheep belonged to Li Zheng's family; one mule belonged to Xia's family.
Of course, the money for these animals is shared equally among the villagers.
The 30 taels of vain money was also raised by the villagers.
It's just that the Xia family's mules are older, and Wang Lizheng disliked the mule's meat being too old, so he lowered the price a bit.Although Mr. Xia was unhappy in his heart, he just sighed a few times and that's all.
One is the relationship with Li Zheng, so it can't be too rigid, and there is no way to suffer a little bit occasionally.
Secondly, the prices are all public.Since the villagers donated the money collectively, of course they knew how much each family got.If the money is too much, it will be difficult to meet the neighbors.
After hearing these words, Xia Daohua really didn't know what to say.
The gang of veteran soldiers from Qianhusuo, who picked up the ready-made credits, actually said so much!
The biggest thing they did was to extinguish the "mountain fire". Most of the enemies were killed by the fire, fainted by the smoke, and crushed by horses...
They didn't even fight seriously!He didn't even forget to "respect" the common people!
But I was both a warning and a hindrance to the enemy. I spent so many precious resources and lost so much money and things. Who can I ask to make up for it?
However, it is not without good news.
Ten days later, a letter came from Wang Lizheng, saying that the Qianhu Institute had discovered the hidden danger on this path, and it was already on Baihuapo, a precipitous place between Qingsongling and Hongsongling. A new garrison point, or checkpoint, was set up.
About [-] soldiers were sent out to garrison there.It is also planned to build a new beacon tower there.
Once there is an enemy situation, you can light a beacon to warn.
Xia Daohua nodded secretly, with this checkpoint, her hard work was finally not in vain.
It's just that she never expected that a group of civilian husbands would be recruited to build this beacon tower!
Fortunately, this time they were not conscripted from Beiguan Village, but from Beiguan Town, specially selected rich households.
According to gossip circulating in private, this is because the recruitment of peasants in the village does not yield much oil and water.
In terms of wealth, one has to be a family in the town.
So, this time to build the Beacon Tower, we specially recruited peasants from the town.
Unfortunately, Xia Youcai's family happened to be among those recruited.
Xia Dalang is a scholar, so he can be exempted from recruitment.
Xia Youcai has a wife, son, and even a granddaughter, so if something happens, he won't worry about going bankrupt, and he didn't escape even though he spent money.
Xia Youcai secretly resented him, he felt that he was so unlucky, most likely because of his failure!
It must have been something that happened in the previous Sifang. He met the behind-the-scenes owner of Shenxianzui and Furongju, and he hated him, so he got in the way, so that he had to become this civilian husband!
In a sense, Xia Youcai guessed right this time.
However, he forgot that although it was true that the fourth family of the Xia family had offended "Master Sheng", it was also related to his own petty tricks, which cannot be separated from it.
Back then, because the Xia family avoided the restaurant where he was staying, he got angry with the boss, so he secretly played tricks, seemingly inadvertently teasing the intoxicated shopkeeper and denying the Xia family's account. forgotten.
But in fact, this incident was one of the fundamental factors that contributed to "Master Sheng"'s final decision to renege on his debts.
In the eyes of "Master Sheng", the Xia family not only has no background and no one to cover them, but they are genuine mud legs that eat from the ground, and there is even a discord among brothers.Therefore, this family must be easy to bully.
Never expected that that seemingly bumpkin family turned out to be a tough nut to crack!
This time when the town recruited civilian husbands to serve, "Master Sheng" asked one of his confidants to greet the small officials in charge and told them not to let Xia Youcai go.
