Mr. Big Air's First Lady

Chapter 10 Settled Down
After hearing what Wen Maoyi said, Wan Ning was shocked.

She never thought that a parent could hate their son to such an extent because of a fortune teller's words!
It is simply the wrath of man and god!

Wan Ning doesn't believe in fortune telling, because in her opinion, fate is not static, it depends on how you choose.

The so-called one thought becomes a Buddha, and one thought becomes a demon.

This is the first time Wan Ning has doubts about the worldview of people in this world.

At the same time, she also felt heartbroken for what happened to Wen Maoyi—this kind of emotion was more of an instinctive reaction of the body she occupied.

Affected by this emotion, Wan Ning also began to resent Da Fang.

After Village Chief Shi led a group of exiles away, no one made trouble anymore.

Dong Yuan, the village head of Yaoguan Village, also took out the roster, counted the number of people, and took everyone to Yaoguan Village.

At this point, the task of escorting the exiles to the officials was considered complete. In a few days, they would be able to return to the city.

There is a river in the northwest of Yaoguan Village, and on the other side of the river is Waidao Village.

The two villages face each other across the river.

Most of the vacant houses in the village were vacated by murder when the Tartars attacked.

A small part was vacated by the widowed and lonely old people in the relocated villages.

Village head Dong has already planned how to resettle each household. Whenever he came to an empty yard, village head Dong would take out the list and read it out, and tell the people whose names were read, you will live in this household.

If anyone thinks the house is not good, then work hard to earn money and build it yourself.

Anyway, this is the condition in their village.

Everyone is already an exile, it would be nice to have a place to live, no one dares to pick and choose.

Because Wen Maoyi spent money, the house they got was not bad.

Although it is also an earthen house, it looks tidy and less dilapidated, and it is closer to the center of the village than the houses assigned to other exiles.

There is also a small vegetable patch in the yard, with cabbage, radish and the like in it.

Village head Dong said: "The vegetables are for you."

Lu and Wen Maoyi were overjoyed and kept thanking the village chief.

Precisely because their family allocated the yard relatively well, and they were afraid of causing dissatisfaction among other exiles, the village head left their family until the end.

After the village chief left, the family took a closer look at the yard.

There are three main rooms and two side rooms on the left, and an inverted seat is built over the courtyard door as a kitchen.

That vegetable field is on the right side of the yard.

He opened the door of the room and looked at each room.

The inside of the room is fairly tidy. There is a kang in the left and right rooms of the main room, and there are also kangs in the two rooms in the left wing room.

Other than that, there was no other furniture, not even tables and stools, let alone anything else.

I don't know if it's just their house, or if there is no furniture or anything in the yard where all the exiles are allocated.

It seems that there is a lot of shopping to be done.

Fortunately, they still have silver with them.

In fact, along the way, most of their money was spent, and now there is only a 100 tael bank note and a few taels of silver left.

Wen Maoyi said to a pair of sons and daughters: "There are two houses in the east wing, each of you chooses one, take your own parcels and go back to the room, change into clean clothes, and dad will take you to the town to eat delicious food and stay overnight , come back tomorrow."

"Oh! Eat something delicious!" Wen Yuze cheered.

After cheering, Wen Yuze said to Wan Ning: "Sister, you choose a room first."

Wan Ning pointed to the wing room near the kitchen: "I want to live in this room."

"Okay, then I'll live in another room."

After the two siblings allocated their own rooms, they returned to their rooms with their respective packages on their backs.

It's autumn now. Although the weather has turned cold, they still smell quite strong after not taking a bath for a long time.

Even changing into clean clothes couldn't hide the smell.

But they themselves are used to it because they smell it every day, and they can't smell the smell on their bodies.

Lu's natal family packed two sets of summer and autumn clothes for each of them. The winter clothes were too heavy, so they didn't help them pack.

After changing clothes, everyone went out of the room, gathered in the yard, and then set off for the city.

Standing in the courtyard, they could see the tall city wall of Wu City. They didn't need to ask for directions, just follow the path and walk in the direction of the city wall to find the city gate.

Now it is August, the autumn harvest is over, and the autumn planting is also done. It is the most affluent day of the year for the people.

Many people walked towards the city on the road.

Some, like Wan Ning's family, were empty-handed, while others were pushing a wheelbarrow with bags on it, heading for the city.

Others drove their carriages to the city.

Bustling, it looks quite lively.

The city gate is very tall and large, giving people a sense of chill.

Wan Ning's family came from Hang City, and the city gate of Hang City was even more shocking than this one, so when they looked at the city wall, they only felt fresh and nothing else.

There are two soldiers standing at the gate of the city, one on the left and one on the right.

The people and cars that come and go go in and out directly without inspection.

Wan Ning's family followed the flow of people into Wu City.

There are people coming and going inside, which is much more lively than looking outside.

They looked around at the gate of the city, and soon saw an inn called "Wu'an Inn".

A few people are hungry and tired now, and they don't want to go to another house, let's just go to this one.

After entering the inn, perhaps because it was not the time to eat, the lobby was empty, except for a waiter standing behind the counter.

Seeing someone coming in, Xiao Er immediately had a smile on his face, and greeted them very warmly: "Is the guest officer a tip or a hotel?"

Wen Maoyi: "How much is a day for two rooms?"

"One room is five yuan a day, and two rooms are ten yuan a day. Breakfast and hot water are included."

Wen Maoyi took out a piece of broken silver that weighed one or two pounds from his sleeve pocket, and put it on the counter: "Stay here for a day."

Xiaoer saw that Wen Maoyi was selling money, and seeing that they were all wearing high-quality silk and satin, he believed that they were either rich or expensive, so he became even more enthusiastic.

Xiao Er picked up the silver, put it in the drawer of the counter, picked up the lock, snapped it and closed it, and locked the drawer very quickly: "Follow me, objectively."

While talking, Xiao Er came out from the counter, walked in front of several people, and led the way.

Xiao Er led them to the third floor, pointed to several rooms and asked, "Guest officer, these rooms are all available, which two do you want?"

Wen Maoyi took a rough look at several rooms: "These two are by the window."

"okay!"

"Bring some hot water. We need to take a bath first, and then prepare some food. We need to use it after bathing."

"What would you like to eat, sir?"

"Look at it." Wen Maoyi didn't know what to eat here for the first time here.

"Look at this, how about two of our restaurant's signature dishes and two stir-fries?"

"Row."

Xiao Er went downstairs happily.

Wen Maoyi began to allocate rooms for everyone, he and Wen Yuze, father and son lived in one room, and Wan Ning, she and Lu's, mother and daughter lived in one room.

After waiting for a while, the waiter from before brought hot and cold water to them.

After carrying it twice, the tubs in the two rooms were full.

For the mother and daughter, Lu asked Wan Ning to wash first, and then she changed the water after washing.

On the side of the father and son, the child washes first, and the father waits for the son to finish washing and change the water before he washes.
