Chapter 76 The robber enters the village

Facing the vague rejection in Shang Wennuan's eyes, Qiao Wanyue smiled slightly and said, "Xiao Nuan, don't rush to reject me about admitting the godfather, think it over carefully, okay? If you still don't want to admit the godfather after thinking it over, I won't either." I will force you, just pretend I didn't mention it, okay?"

Nuannuan doesn't like to be procrastinating, so just as she was about to express herself directly, Qiao Wanyue had already started talking to Luo Shi: "Sister Luo, can you take me around the village?"

"Of course." Luo stood up, "But it's very cold outside, sister Qiao should wear more clothes."

After Qiao Wanyue put on the fox fur, she took maids Nian Xia and Xi Chun out with Luo Shi.

The heavy rain had just passed, and the weather was cold and clammy. This kind of chill can seep into one's bones, making people very uncomfortable.

After walking for a while, Luo Shi saw that Qiao Wanyue's face was getting paler, so she hurriedly took her home and cooked a bowl of ginger soup for her to drink.

Originally, Qiao Wanyue didn't plan to bother Wen's family. She wanted to go to Anping County to find an inn at night, but she fell ill after drinking ginger soup.

Qiao Wanyue's illness was severe, but it frightened the Wen family.

If Mrs. Bai has something good or bad in their family, they can't bear the responsibility!

"Aunt Qiao just got a fever because of being overtired and catching a cold." Nuan Nuan checked Qiao Wanyue's pulse and saw Nian Xia and Xi Chun crying anxiously, soothed him, "Don't worry, Aunt Qiao just has a weak foundation. Take good care of yourself after recovery, and you won’t get sick so easily in the future.”

Nian Xia said with red eyes, "Thank you, Miss Nuan."

Illness comes like a mountain down, sickness goes like a thread.

With warmth, Qiao Wanyue's fever subsided that night, and she was fine the next day.

Both the Wen family and Nian Xia Xichun heaved a sigh of relief.

Qiao Wanyue fell ill twice in succession, Nuan Nuan did not suggest her to hurry at this time: "Aunt Qiao, you are not in good health to hurry, why don't you stay at my house for a few more days?"

"Will this trouble you too much?" Qiao Wanyue didn't dare to joke about her own life, so she thought for a while: "Let's go to the inn in the city."

Luo Shi liked the dignified and approachable Qiao Wanyue very much, so she hurriedly said: "Although our house is simple, it is better than an inn. Elder sister Qiao will stay at our house first, and it will not be too late to go to the inn if the stay is not comfortable."

Qiao Wanyue is not a pampered person. She had suffered a lot with Bai Lang back then, and lived in a place that was much worse than Wen's family. How could she dislike her: "Then I will cause you trouble."

Luo was very happy: "Sister Qiao, don't meet us like this, just stay here with peace of mind. I will heat up the kang at night, and I will definitely not let you catch a cold again."

Luo Shi was afraid that Qiao Wanyue would think the kang was too hard, so she put more quilts on the kang.

This room is actually warm, she gave up the room to Qiao Wanyue, and lived in her elder brother and younger brother's house, and Goro ran to be with Qi'er.

Qiao Wanyue lived in Wen's house for seven or eight days. The two maids, Nian Xia and Xi Chun, saw that their master's face turned rosy, and they were also very happy. They felt that it was really the right time to come to Wen's house this time.

Qiao Wanyue really likes Xinqing'ao Village. She likes the simplicity and hard work of the folks here, and their optimism and unity. She also likes that this village allows her to see novel things that are not available elsewhere, such as those medicine fields, such as porcelain Vegetables grown in porcelain bowls, such as Wen's home-brewed wine, peach wine, and potatoes just harvested by Wen Xingye.

The lively atmosphere in the village made her not want to leave!
However, this can only be thought about, because her precious son saw that she hadn't returned home for a long time, so he went to Anping County to pick her up two days ago.

It was already dark when Bai Muyang arrived at the village, and Erlang, who was on vacation, came back with him.

"Juxuanzhai" was also closed yesterday, and Wen's was at its busiest time.

Knowing that Bai Muyang had come to the village, the old village head brought his eldest son, Liao Yong, to Wen's house to keep their mother and son: "Madam Bai, Muyang, our village will kill pigs tomorrow, so you should stay one more day anyway, just to join in the fun."

This was their first year of building the village, and the twenty piglets sent by the magistrate to be raised by them, each of them grew to three or four hundred catties in just a few months, the old village chief decided to take care of them. Celebrate celebrate.

Of course, it is impossible to keep more than 20 pigs to eat. After discussing with the villagers a few days ago, the old village head took ten of them to several nearby counties and sold them. Piglets come back to raise.

The remaining ten pigs were slaughtered, and each household could still share dozens of catties.

Qiao Wanyue has never seen a pig butcher at her age. After hearing what the old village chief said, her eyes brightened and she looked at her son.

Facing his mother who was reluctant to leave, Bai Muyang had a headache: "If you have the heart to let dad spend the new year alone, I don't care."

The Bai family is thin, Bai Lang and Qiao Wanyue are only one child like Bai Muyang, if their mother and son don't go back, Bai Lang will have to spend the festival alone.

With so many outsiders around, Qiao Wanyue didn't show her true emotions, and smiled dignifiedly: "Your father is a busy man, and he may not be able to go home tomorrow. The village chief sincerely invites us, so let's stay one more night."

Hmph, the old man is alone, whoever he wants to accompany can accompany him, she doesn't care about it!

As soon as he heard this, Bai Muyang knew that his mother's knot with his father had not been untied, so he had to let her go.

That night, the Luo family rearranged the room again. Qiao Wanyue still shared the room with the two maids, and the Wen family men and women each had a room, and the remaining room belonged to Bai Muyang.

The kang was built big enough at the beginning, and seven or eight people could lie down on one kang, which was a good arrangement.

But Wen Nuan still felt that he had made a mistake, when he built the house, he really should have created two more rooms.

In the middle of the night, Bai Muyang opened his eyes suddenly, and quickly walked out of the room to wake up the others.

"What's the matter, Brother Bai?" Wen Nuan came out first.

"There may be outsiders entering the village, you bolt the door, I'll go out and have a look." By the time Bai Muyang finished speaking, people had already arrived outside the courtyard.

Everyone was shocked.

"Nuan Nuan, take care of Mrs. Bai and your grandma. Erlang and I will inform the others." Wen Xingye picked up the thing and ran out.

Erlang followed closely behind.

After a while, the village heard the sound of gongs and shouts from the villagers: "It's not good, the village has been invaded by robbers—"

Mrs. Su and Mrs. Yuan and Mrs. Webster all brought their children. They had the experience and courage to fight against the refugees before, so they blocked the door as soon as they entered.

Wen Nuan listened to the movement outside, feeling heavy in his heart, and said to his mother and the others: "Bring all the food and water in the kitchen, everyone hides in the cellar! Remember, no matter what happens outside, you must not make a sound !"

This time is different from the last time. The last time they were refugees, they only came here for food and drink, but this time the ones who came here were murderous robbers without batting an eyelid. She dared not let everyone take risks.
