Chapter 149 149: The Empty Town

Lin Xiao had this plan in the beginning, but at that time he was afraid of sweeping up the scene, so he didn't send anyone there, but he asked Uncle Zhang to find someone to wait in the town.

Now that the situation between him and the court is so tense, it is better to send someone to guard them just in case.

Wu Huang thought for a while, and asked, "Should we let them go directly, or disguise themselves?"

Lin Xiao: "Disguise, say you are an exile from the imperial court, and send two secret guards to protect secretly. Remember not to attract the attention of the princess."

Wu Huang: "Yes!"

"Master, there is one more thing, the subordinate needs to ask for instructions."

Lin Xiao: "Say!"

Wu Huang: "Yangyou asked, where should Mr. Zhao's family members be placed after being rescued?"

Lin Xiao was silent for a moment and said, "Put it where the princess is!"

Wu Huang hesitated after hearing this, "Is this appropriate?"

Lin Xiao: "What's inappropriate? As a princess, isn't it just to solve the rear problems for the king?"

Wu Huang rubbed his head, and asked suspiciously: "But... but the princess doesn't know what you're thinking!"

The concubine thought that the prince would not be able to turn over, so she was focused on saving money at home!

Lin Xiao...

This is indeed a problem. Ever since his princess broke her mind, she has become more and more fond of this kind of pastoral life, but she doesn't know what expression she will have when she knows what she is thinking.

Lin Xiao: "Forget it, don't tell her, she will make arrangements."

Wu Huang complained in his heart: "I hope!"

Ever since Ye Li replied "um" to Lin Xiao, Lin Xiao had a long memory, and no matter what happened or not, he would always write a few more sentences in his future replies.

Gradually, Ye Li also got used to his chatter.

In the blink of an eye, three months have passed, and we have entered winter from early autumn.

There are fewer and fewer people fleeing outside, and the village is getting more and more empty.

Ye Li had nothing to do this day, so he planned to take the two children to the town.

It was getting colder and colder, and she had to prepare some thick clothes for the two children.

Xiao Mu has never been to the town since he was here, so when he heard that he was excited to go to the town, he began to urge Ye Li and Hu Zi early in the morning.

"Auntie, brother, hurry up!"

Ye Li replied while carrying the basket on his back: "Don't rush, don't rush, I'll be here soon."

When they got to the yard, they saw Xiaomu waiting in the yard alone, Ye Li looked at him and asked, "Why are you alone, where is your brother?"

Xiaomu pointed to the toilet, and said in a childish voice, "It's in the toilet."

After hearing this, Ye Li frowned slightly and asked in doubt: "Haven't you come out yet?"

It has been half an hour since Huzi went to the toilet after eating.

Xiaomu nodded obediently.

Ye Li patted his back and directed, "Go, call your brother."

Xiao Mu listened to Ye Li's words very much, and immediately went to the toilet with short legs and called Hu Zi: "Brother, brother, hurry up!"

Huzi was so annoyed by him, he replied in disgust, "Go! Go away!"

Xiaomu was so fierce by Huzi, he turned his head and looked at Ye Li pitifully.

Ye Li looked into his eyes, his heart was too soft, he had no choice but to threaten: "Huzi, if you don't come out, we will leave first, you can stay at home and look after the house!"

When Huzi heard this, he became anxious, and hurriedly said: "Don't! Don't! I'll come out right away."

Within a few seconds after saying this, Hu Zi walked out of the toilet with his pants in his hands.

Ye Li looked at him and asked worriedly: "What's the matter with you, are you constipated?"

He didn't have this habit before, every time he went in, he wanted to come out quickly, for fear of delaying him going out to play.

Huzi frowned, and said with a confused look: "I don't know, why can't I squat out today."

Ye Li: "Did you eat something bad?"

Huzi thought for a while and replied calmly: "No! I'll eat whatever you eat. You're all fine. It shouldn't be about eating."

At this moment, Xiaomu suddenly remembered something, and when his eyes lit up and he was about to speak, Huzi covered his mouth!
"Okay, it's getting late, let's go!"

Seeing him like this, Ye Li knew that he had something to hide from him, so he glanced at him angrily, thinking that when they came back, he would definitely drag him to see a doctor.

Seeing that her aunt had left, Huzi let go of Xiaomu's mouth, pointed at him and threatened, "If you dare to talk nonsense, I'll see if I come back and punish you!"

Xiaomu blinked his big grape-like eyes and didn't dare to speak.

Then he turned around and ran towards the water tank, washing his mouth with his little hands while vomiting.

Seeing him like a tiger, he raised his hand and smelled it, and muttered in surprise: "Is it so bad?" After speaking, he walked slowly towards the water tank, and washed his hands carefully over and over again.

Ye Li had been waiting outside the gate, and when he saw the two brothers coming out, he closed the door and led them to the town.

The village was empty, but the road was quiet, and the two children were not walking fast, and it took about an hour to arrive.

Xiao Mu held Ye Li's hand and stood in front of the city gate, looking at the majestic city gate and said, "Auntie, is this the city gate?"

Before Ye Li could reply, Huzi said with disgust on his face: "Of course, such a high city wall is nothing but a city gate."

Not to be outdone, Xiaomu retorted: "The courtyard wall of our house is also high, could it be also a city wall?"

Huzi frowned, "Then... that's because Uncle Lin is tall."

"Besides, the gate of our house is not like this!"

Xiaomu thought for a while and lowered his head, "Okay then!"

Ye Li listened to the conversation between the two children, smiled and pointed to the words on the city gate: "You see! They have words, next time you only need to read the words to know where you are."

Huzi: "Then what if you don't know him?"

Ye Li: "Who told you not to study well, if you don't know it, then blame yourself." After speaking, he dragged Xiaomu into the town.

Hu Zi fell behind and looked at the backs of the two of them and muttered in a low voice: "Huh! Trying to fool me again." Then he trotted after them.

Although the town used to be small, it was very prosperous, but now the town feels depressed as soon as it enters.

Huzi used to come to the town with his parents, but now seeing the town like this, he asked in confusion, "Auntie, why is there no one in this town?"

Ye Li was also a little surprised in his heart, he didn't expect that a flood and a drought could directly evacuate a town.

"I think they all moved away."

Hu Zi fell silent after hearing this.He is no longer young, so he naturally knows what Ye Li means.

Niang San walked slowly in the empty town, and after walking for a long time, they saw a steamed stuffed bun shop.

Ye Li was overjoyed, and said to the two children, "Are you hungry? Auntie will take you to eat buns."

Huzi and Xiaomu's eyes lit up immediately, "Okay! Eat buns."

Although Ye Li's cooking was delicious, he couldn't suppress the children's curiosity.
