Chapter 73
Although Mr. Liao and Xingyi lived in the village, they didn't open up wasteland and farm land, and they went to the town to buy everything they used on weekdays.

The An family has nothing else but rice. Excluding the ones that are sent to An Yanshu in the family every three months, there is still a lot left. The An family is not going to sell it. It is a kind of security to have more food at home. feel.

An Zhinan walked into the main room with the letter addressed to his elder brother, and seeing his family members sitting inside, he handed the letter to his grandfather: "It's finished, everything that needs to be said is written on it."

The old man An was illiterate, so he directly handed the letter to An Zhiyan who was sitting on the side, and told him, "Go back to town early tomorrow morning, and send the letter to your brother. Don't come back, when you have nothing to do, think about the route that will take you today."

An Zhiyan took the letter and nodded: "I understand, Grandpa, take care of yourself at home."

After talking for a while, they all went back to their houses to rest.

An Zhiyan went back to the town before dawn the next day, and the peaceful life in Ping'an Village resumed.

On the tenth day after An Zhiyan left, Ping'an Village ushered in excitement.

The people sent by the Holy Spirit are here.

The day before, Elder Liao had given An Zhinan a vacation, saying that he was going to take Xingyi to the town to run errands.

An Zhinan was woken up by his grandmother early in the morning, and the whole family went to the entrance of the village to gather together.

When they arrived, many people had already gathered in the village. Qi Cunyi stood with a middle-aged man in Chinese clothes. There were several heavy wooden boxes behind them, and two officers and soldiers stood next to the boxes.

Seeing that everyone was here, Qi Cunyi raised his hand, and the noisy voices fell silent instantly.

"It's all here, so I'll make a long story short. The one next to me is from the capital, Mr. Jing Zhaoshao Yin He. They came this time to our Ping'an Village to reward everyone with the words of the Holy One. The Holy One said, we In Ping'an Village, for their meritorious service in distributing grain seeds, each household will be rewarded with 20 taels of silver."

As soon as Qi Cunyi finished speaking, there were voices of discussion from below, and everyone's faces were full of joy.

"The emperor actually rewarded us, the ancestors bless you."

"The emperor actually came to our Ping'an Village. It's quite a face to say that."

"Long live the emperor, long live, long live."

Afterwards, Qi Cunyi raised his hand again, and after waiting for the silence below, he turned to look at Mr. He beside him.

I saw this Mr. He had a serious face, looking at everyone present with majesty, everyone he looked at subconsciously held their breath, and then slowly asked: "Is the An family here?"

Qi Cunyi looked towards the youngest of the An family with a smile in his eyes.

The old man An looked terrified and brought his family out, knelt on the ground and said: "Old man An Zhensheng brought his family to see you."

He Wei looked at a few people, his serious face gradually softened, and he said loudly: "Get up, this time the next official also came with the words of the sage, you don't need to salute, this time the grain has been well received in various places, and it has benefited a lot. There are people all over the surrounding area, and the security of the family should be the most important thing in terms of food seeds."

He Wei glanced at the surprised and curious crowd, turned his head to look at Qi Cunyi and said, "Chief Qi, I still have something to discuss with An's family. The rewards of the villagers here will be distributed by you."

Qi Cunyi didn't dare to say anything, he nodded repeatedly.

He Wei walked up to Old Man An and said in a low voice, "Can I take a step to speak?"

He said it was a question, but there was no doubt in his tone.

The old man An became more and more frightened, nodded and said: "Your Excellency, if you don't mind, you can go to An's house for a drink of tea."

"Let's go then, lead the way."

The An's family led the way, He Wei was in the middle, and four officers and soldiers carried two boxes at the end, leaving behind a group of curious and envious people.

Qi Cunyi looked at the backs of several people who were getting further and further away, feeling puzzled in his heart, and followed the instructions to distribute rewards to every household.

An Zhinan was being led by his grandmother, his mind moved slightly.

Mr. He, as expected by his grandfather, couldn't wait to ask about the grain seeds when he arrived. It is estimated that An's family has been investigated thoroughly by him.

Looking around in a daze, suddenly, he found a touch of green clothes under a tree next to a corner, and when An Zhinan wanted to take a closer look, Mrs. An pulled him twice.

"Nannan, watch the road."

An Zhinan was pulled back, and when he was about to look in that direction again, there was nowhere to see that figure, as if he was dazzled just now.

Didn't Uncle Xingyi say he was going to town?

Suppressing the doubts in his heart, An Zhinan walked quietly.

Here, Xing Yi passed by quickly, and finally stopped in front of the carriage at the foot of the mountain.

"How is it?"

Old Liao's voice in the car was flat and gentle.

Xing Yi cupped his hands and bowed his head: "The person who came is He Wei, who has already gone to settle down with Nan Nan and the others."

There was a moment of silence in the carriage, then a sigh.

"Keep staring at him. He Wei is very suspicious. He is not a good person to deal with. I guess he is doing private affairs with the will of the Holy One this time. If the Anjia cannot satisfy him this time, he may be in trouble. You Take two people to watch, if nothing happens, everyone will be happy, if someone makes trouble for An's family..."

Mr. Liao paused for a moment, then continued: "Clean it up, and don't let people grab the head and tail."

"Yes."

Xingyi waved his hand towards the air, and two men in black appeared in an instant, following Xingyi towards the direction of An's house.

Mr. Liao lifted the curtain of the car and looked at An's place for a long time.

An Zhinan's family sat in the main room facing He Wei, and everyone showed a look of trepidation. As for whether they were afraid or not, only the person concerned knew.

The main room was quiet, no one spoke.

The An family knew He Wei's purpose well, so naturally they were not in a hurry to speak.

He Wei wanted to show off his power, but he didn't expect the An family to be so collapsed.

In the end, He Wei also felt that this was troublesome, so he simply stopped being silent, glanced at the people in the room and said slowly: "This time, Anjia took the lead in setting an example in the matter of grain seeds, and the harvested rice went straight to Shengting. The Holy One was very happy when he saw it, so, Let me wait for the reward to come."

"Your Majesty. Orally, give the An family two pairs of gold and white, and two pairs of jade pendants."

Old man An hurriedly led his family to kneel down: "Thank you, Your Majesty, long live your Majesty, long live your Majesty."

"You'll be excused, come here, and bring the things up."

After speaking, four officers and soldiers came in carrying the boxes and opened them one by one.

Suddenly the dim main room was dazzled by the golden light, the white gold was close in front of his eyes, his breathing tightened and his heart beat faster.

Even An Zhinan was breathless when he suddenly saw so much gold.

Looking at the second wooden box, there are dozens of wooden boxes, large and small, which look like jewelry.

He Wei observed An Jia's expressions from the beginning to the end, and seeing them surprised, he just felt that it should be so.

After reading it, the officers and soldiers closed the box, then carried the box and put it behind An's family, then quietly withdrew and stood guard in front of the main room.

At this moment, An Zhinan seemed to hear a slight noise above his head, but trouble was right in front of him, so it was difficult to move.

"This time, I have one more thing that needs to be clarified."
