Farmhouse nan nan fortune is prosperous

Chapter 129 Self-help
Wang Fu looked around and found that no one was paying attention, so he said in a low voice, "We want to ask the government office for some support, but, the yamen servant said that the county magistrate is not here, let us go back first, and come back when we come back."

"However, he didn't say when he would come back."

It is clear that money is expensive, and this one obviously doesn't want to care about it.

It seems this is a big deal.

"So many villages have been avalanche?" Qian Gui pointed to the group of people around and asked in puzzlement.

If this is the case, then the village cannot stay.

There was so much snow before, and this climate recovery will really cause waterlogging.

"Well...just to different degrees." Wang Fu nodded, also with a sad face.

"Tujia Village has the lowest terrain in the ten miles and eight villages. Yesterday evening, the avalanche fell. That old Li Tou didn't sleep all night, so he rushed over early in the morning." Wang Fu pointed to the old Li Tou who was sitting on the steps beside him.

The person who came was about fifty years old, his hair was half white, and his face was full of sadness.

"Hey, don't discuss any more, the magistrate is back from Fucheng, come in." Just when a group of people didn't know what to do, the door opened.

A yamen servant came out to inform.

A group of people quickly followed behind.

Several people were taken to the reception hall, where the county magistrate was already waiting.

Seeing the county magistrate, everyone was startled, not knowing what happened, "My lord, what's wrong with you? Why have you lost so much weight, and this clothes..."

The county magistrate in front of him looked tired and thin, and his clothes were covered in mud spots, and the shoes on his feet seemed to be fished out of mud.

If you saw it on the street, you would think it was a beggar.

"It doesn't matter what I look like, I know what you are here for, and I just happened to tell you the instructions from above." The county magistrate cleared his throat.

"There is no doubt about this snow disaster. The entire north has been affected to varying degrees. The imperial court is thinking of countermeasures, but the scope is too wide."

"Before the rescue policy comes down, everyone needs to save themselves."

These two sentences caught everyone off guard.

I was thinking of asking for help, but I didn't expect the above sentence, let them help themselves, this is really a joke.

"The whole north?" Qian Gui confirmed again.

The county magistrate nodded.

"Okay, go back if you have nothing to do, and take precautions in advance. Now the granaries are in a hurry, so go back and appease the villagers." The county magistrate got up and left.

Everyone left behind, looking at each other in blank dismay.

They knew that the situation might be serious this time, but they didn't expect it to be this serious.

Before everyone could discuss it, the yamen servant came up and invited people out again.

Back and forth, it was only half a quarter of an hour.

But everyone's mood was mixed.

"Qian Gui, I won't tell you anymore. I have to go home quickly. Wang's Village is far away." After saying that, Wang Fu left.

After the others greeted each other, they left one after another.

Qian Gui touched the letters he had written all morning, and it seemed that they were written in vain.

"Father, what, what should I do?" Qian Dazhu who was at the side asked nervously.

"Buy some grain and go back." When the father and son arrived at the grain shop, they suddenly found that the price of grain had tripled.

When they passed by just now, it seemed that it had only increased a little, but it has increased so much in just a while.

That's it, there's still a long queue.

"Father, why don't we buy it, we still have it at home anyway." Qian Dazhu thought it was too expensive, so there was no need to buy it,

Qian Gui touched the two taels of silver in his pocket, and gritted his teeth.

"Buy, just buy the cheapest one."

After speaking, the father and son joined the team.

All this, the people in the village don't know yet.

When the two left after buying brown rice and miscellaneous grain noodles, although it was still early, it was already dark, and looking at the hazy sky, it seemed that it was going to snow.

The father and son hurried back home with food on their backs.

As expected, it started to snow a little at night.

Although it is not as big as the previous days, it is very crowded and disturbing.

This dinner feels very atmospheric.

When Fu Bao and Wen Heng arrived home, they felt that something was wrong. Everyone's faces seemed to be covered with a layer of melancholy.

"What's the matter? Did something happen at home?" Fu Bao asked aloud, put his schoolbag on the sofa as usual, picked up a small piece of biscuit on the table, and ate it deliciously.

"Fubao, it's over, it might really be the year of the catastrophe." Zhang Xiaowu drooped his face, he was totally different from the cheerful look in the morning.

Fubao did not fluctuate too much, and he had prepared for the worst.

So when Zhang Xiaowu said it, she was just curious why the disaster year could be determined at this time.Then he asked, "Why?"

"The village head notified from door to door that there will be snowstorms across the north this year, so let every household prepare for food."

"Also, the grain shops in the town are all empty..."

Zhang Xiaowu was terrified. Everyone in the village talked about the situation in the previous disaster year, which frightened him a lot.

Robbery, murder, set fire, robbers run rampant!
"Okay, don't talk about it, our family has prepared a lot of food in advance, don't worry." Old man Zhang waved his hand.

This sentence gave everyone a shot in the arm.

"That's right, what are you afraid of? The big deal is that we will save a little when we eat later, but we must not be hungry." Fu Bao said with a smile.

"Well, old man, you can take good control of this kitchen in the future." Although Zhang Wang is also worried, but this is just the beginning, so don't panic.

This meal, everyone's heart is very heavy.

After eating, he went back to the study to finish his homework, when he heard the door creaking open, Fu Bao turned his head, and saw a lump of white rushing in.

"Wang Zai." Fu Bao smiled and stretched out his hand to greet him, only to see the little wolf cub rubbing against Fu Bao's leg affectionately, lying on one side, squinting his eyes, and fell asleep after a while.

Wen Heng on the side also finished his homework, then turned off the stove, and stepped forward, "Let's go, go back to the room to rest."

After finishing speaking, he noticed the book in Fu Bao's hand, "What kind of script is this, "The Domineering School Grass Falls in Love with Me"?"

After finishing speaking, his cheeks were flushed and his expression was flustered.

"It's about..." Fu Bao thought for a while, "The love between male and female classmates, the story of mutual admiration."

Seeing Fu Bao's explanation that his face was not blushing and his heart was beating, Wen Heng shook his head slightly. This kind of story book is not suitable for her, but seeing her excited face, it is not good to let him read it, "You can read it at home. , can’t take it outside, and can’t tell outsiders.”

Fu Bao nodded, "I know, this is just to pass the time when I have nothing to do. Besides, I finished writing Journey to the West. I need to find inspiration and write another book."

Wen Heng nodded.

The two went back to their rooms to rest.

That night, people in every village tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. In comparison, Old Zhang's family was the most stable.

Because it is winter itself, each family has a lot of food, so the impact is not very big, except for the occasional avalanche, which has a greater impact on the people at the foot of the mountain.
