Wu Chao: Take the whole family to escape the famine

Chapter 248
The haystacks next to the house were all burned up, and the raised grass ash spread a thick layer in the yard, and it was soft to step on, like a heavy snowfall.

Fortunately, the burned area of ​​the house was not large, only half a corner of the east wing was burned, but the main room and west wing were fine.

Ji Feng fell asleep on the way back, Shen Xingwang carried him into the west wing room, took off his shoes and put him on the bed, pulled up the quilt and covered him.

"The dust is not easy to sweep. It will all be lifted up after sweeping. We can only wash it with water tomorrow." Aunt Zhou looked at the thick layer of dust in the main room and shook her head.

"Don't worry about it in the middle of the night." Shen Yuan said with a smile: "Ma'am, brother Xingwang, you go back to sleep, we'll talk about it tomorrow."

Aunt Zhou hummed, and ran to the main room to take a look, she saw that the inside was clean, she felt relieved.

"It's okay, I can sleep in the main room, so I'll make do with it tonight, and tomorrow my aunt will bring Xingwang over to help clean."

"Okay, sorry for the trouble, auntie and brother Xingwang." Shen Yuan thanked the two of them, and sent them out of the yard. When he came back, Ji Xun had already poured a bucket of hot water into the main room.

There was a lamp on the table, illuminating the flickering lights in the room, making Ji Xun's profile even more handsome. Shen Yuan was a little stunned, thinking that this man not only had a good figure but also an excellent appearance. It's not bad to have such a husband and wife.

Seeing Shen Yuan looking at him with a smile, Ji Xun went up and pinched Shen Yuan's pointed nose.

"How is it? Are you satisfied with your husband?"

"satisfy.'

"Where are you more satisfied?" Ji Xun's lips curled into a bewitching smile.

Shen Yuan glared at him: "I'm satisfied with where you are confident!" This guy doesn't talk coldly to others, but he always 'drives' towards her, and he doesn't know his little lust?
"Yeah, when you're full, you'll be more satisfied, go take a shower, look at your dirty body." He said, helping Shen Yuan take off his dirty outer clothes.

Shen Yuan let out a sigh of relief, always using words to seduce her, bad guy! Looking at him, his clothes are also dirty.

"Ah Xun, your clothes are also dirty, I'll take them off for you."

Shen Yuan also grinningly picked up his clothes, she actually liked this very masculine body.

We are old couples, why not take a couple bath.

But Ji Xun was worried about the cold weather, so he forced Shen Yu'an to wash first, and after washing her hair and other things, she was wrapped in a warm bedding, and then he went into the bathtub to wash the bath water his wife had washed.

Pfft~~~His Highness the night king with a cleanliness!!
Wash the bath water that the lady washed, and whoever tells it will believe it.

Yingxue residence.

Ding Xiaolian huddled on the bed in fear, afraid that the night king would suspect that she instigated Mrs. Wang to set fire and come to trouble her, and also afraid that the haunted house was haunted, how dare she close her eyes?
"What should I do? The carriage was borrowed again, how do I get out of here tomorrow?" Ding Xiaolian was about to cry, she just wanted to leave here as soon as possible and return to Lingzhou City.

Hong Luan comforted: "It's okay, miss, they should return the carriage soon."

"It's so far back from the county. Besides, I have to be questioned by the county magistrate. Who knows when I can come back?"

"Always be back in the afternoon."

"Afternoon? Miss Ben, how can I wait so long?" Ding Xiaolian sat up at once, wishing she could fly away immediately with a pair of wings. How could she wait until tomorrow afternoon?
Seeing that she was in such a hurry, Hongluan hurriedly said: "Then, then let someone light a torch and walk to the town to call for a carriage?"

"good idea."

Ding Xiaolian nodded, "Hurry up, ask Lao Zhao and Lao Qian to go to town overnight to hire a carriage."

"Yes, Miss." Hong Luan hurriedly got up and left the house, found Lao Zhao and Lao Qian, and told them to walk to the town overnight to hire a car.

After finishing all these, Ding Xiaolian finally felt more at ease, but still couldn't sleep, so he decided not to sleep, got up and packed things by himself, and waited for the dawn to leave.

It's not too far from Shenjia Village to the town, and Old Zhao came back in a carriage before Yinshi was done.

"Miss, I found the car." Old Zhao Xing hurried into the yard, "But I only found one, and Lao Qian is still waiting in the town. Once he finds the car, he will bring it with him."

There are not many things, but the distance is long, Ding Xiaolian and Hongluan are in one car, and the servants are divided into two cars, at least three carriages are needed.

Dan Ding Xiaolian couldn't wait any longer, fearing that Ji Xun would come to trouble her as soon as dawn, so he hurriedly said: "Hongluan and I will go to the town by car first, and we will wait for you there."
Hongluan hurriedly said: "Then miss, take Lao Zhao with you, so that I can protect you."

"Okay, old Zhao together." Ding Xiaolian agreed, and then explained to the other servants, she took Lao Zhao and Hongluan into the carriage first, and went to the town.

Yinshiwei, more than five o'clock, but it is late in winter, and this time is the darkest hour before dawn.

There is nothing to be afraid of, Lao Zhao is in his thirties, five-year-old and three-year-old, and he is very safe with him.

So not long after getting in the car, Ding Xiaolian and Hongluan fell asleep one after another.

Having been unable to sleep at night in that ghost house for several days, and gradually getting farther and farther away from that ghost place this time, Ding Xiaolian's heart was completely relaxed, and soon fell into a deep sleep.

I don't know how long I slept, but I felt that the carriage was shaking more and more violently, and suddenly a bump woke her up, rubbing her sore eyes, Ding Xiaolian raised her head in a daze, it was already dawn.

But where did the people around me go?
Where's Lao Zhao? Where's Hong Luan? They're all gone, only Ding Xiaolian is left in the empty carriage!
Ding Xiaolian was startled, and quickly raised the curtain of the car to look out. This, this is not the road to the town at all, but a deserted mountain path, with grass half a person's height beside the road, and crows and people are heard from time to time. The cry is creepy.

"Stop, stop." Ding Xiaolian exclaimed quickly, his face pale with fright.

However, the coachman seemed to be deaf, ignored it, and drove the car faster and faster. Ding Xiaolian couldn't sit still, and was dizzy from the jolt.

He scolded fiercely in the car: "Damn you, if you don't stop, I will kill you." After all, I am used to being arrogant, and the first thing I say is to scold the slave.

But the coachman didn't seem to hear it, the carriage was driving fast, and he didn't know how far it had gone. Ding Xiaolian was completely terrified now, she gritted her teeth and was about to jump out of the carriage, when the carriage driver suddenly reined in the horse and stopped the carriage.

Ding Xiaolian was so frightened that his hands and feet trembled, he raised the curtain of the car and looked at the driver in front.

"You, what did you drag me here for? What do you want?"

The coachman wore a bamboo hat and sat motionless in the driving position, as if there was an inexplicable hostility all over his body, which was terribly cold.

Ding Xiaolian's eyes were terrified, and he said in a trembling voice, "Where did the people in the car go? Hurry up, turn around and look for them."

The coachman didn't answer, his back was dark, he put down his whip, picked up the waistband of his trousers, and turned his head slowly..
