Wu Chao: Take the whole family to escape the famine

Chapter 78 Meeting Mu's Butler, Everyone Goes to Mu's Mansion
After knowing the true identity of Ouyang Ming Niubi Honghong, the members of the Jiang family obviously still have a lot of respect for him.

But Ouyang Ming did everything the same as usual, and everyone gradually relaxed.

The following days were as usual, Jiang Zhiyue added to the makeup on Ouyang Ming's face every day.

And at noon on the fifth day, they finally arrived outside Los Angeles.

The gates of Los Angeles are wide open at the moment, and people are coming in and out, but no refugees have come here yet, they should be the first wave.

Mu Ping looked at the two large characters of "Luocheng" on the city gate, and his eyes were a little red.

"We're finally here," he said.

The others were also deeply moved. It had been almost five months since they left home.

From the scorching summer to the days when you have to wrap up in thick clothes to keep warm and keep out the cold.

They walked forward with heavy steps and arrived at the bottom of the city gate.

The officers and soldiers guarding the city saw them and asked loudly: "Where did they come from? What are you doing in the city?"

Mr. Jiang took a step forward and said, "Gentlemen, we escaped from the locust plague in the east. Don't you know that the city accepts refugees?"

The officers and soldiers confirmed it again: "Was King Changding come from the fiefdom?"

He looked at the bullock carts and the things on them behind the Jiang family and his group, and it didn't look like they were fleeing.

Mr. Jiang nodded respectfully, handed over all the guides of the Jiang family in the package, and said, "Yes, this is our guide."

The official searched through the guide handed in by Mr. Jiang, and found that it was indeed true, but he still asked, "Why is the number wrong?"

Mr. Jiang replied truthfully: "Some of these people were rescued from other refugees on the way, and the guides are gone."

Hearing Mr. Jiang's words, the officer thought of the current situation outside, gave them a sympathetic look, and didn't make things difficult for them.

The officer's attitude was not bad and told them some of the current situation in the city, and then called out a soldier to lead the Jiang family into the city to register.

After Mr. Jiang thanked the official, he followed the soldier who came out to lead them in.

The city is bustling, and the shops on the streets are also open, and the sound of hawking can be heard endlessly.

From the moment Ming Yuanqing entered the city, his eyes felt that they were not enough, so he looked left and right.

Others looked around differently, after all, it was the first time for most of them to come to such a lively place.

When the soldier led them in, many people kept looking at them.

A middle-aged man with the appearance of a housekeeper happened to come out of a pharmacy at this time, glanced at this side, and then rubbed his eyes in shock.

When he opened his eyes again, he found that he was right, it was indeed the second master!
Knowing that King Changding's fiefdom was plagued by locusts and the earth was shaking, the master of the family was worried about the second master and young lady, so he sent someone to look for it.

But they went too late, and when their people got there, they realized that the county town had been breached long ago, and the second master and young lady didn't know where to flee.

Then they searched along the way they came here, but they couldn't find anyone.

The master is already about to accept that the second master and the young lady are gone, and this person actually appeared here.

The butler ran over excitedly and stopped the Jiang family and his party.

Seeing someone suddenly blocking the way, the soldier said with some displeasure, "Get out of the way."

The butler smiled at the soldier like a tiger and said, "My little brother, I am the butler of the Mu Mansion in the city. There are people I know here. Could it be convenient for me?"

When the soldier heard that he was the housekeeper of the Mu Mansion, his face immediately changed.

The Mu Mansion in Luocheng handed over a lot of medicinal materials to the army every year, and even General Liang would treat the people of the Mu Mansion a little bit less.

He said: "So it's Steward Mu. You just said that there are people you know here? These are refugees who just came here."

Butler Mu still smiled like a smiling tiger, and said with a smile: "Of course there are people I know, are you going to take them to the government to register?"

The soldier nodded and explained.

Butler Mu approached him and secretly stuffed a purse into his arms, and said with a smile, "Don't bother me, brother, I'm familiar with the process, so I'll take them there."

The soldier lifted the weight of his purse and said happily, "Since this is the case, I will trouble Butler Mu."

In the Jiang family's team, because Mu Ping and Mu Qiqi were walking in the middle of the team, they didn't see why they stopped in front of them.

But other people heard it, the middle-aged man who suddenly ran over said that he was from the Mu family, and there were people he knew in the team.

People you know?

That can't be the family of Mu's father and daughter.

Jiang Yulai turned his head, took two steps back and walked to Mu Ping's side. He patted Mu Ping lightly and said, "Doctor Mu, do you know the person in front? I heard him say something about Butler Mu." of."

Mu Ping asked in surprise, "Mu Butler?"

At this time, the soldier had already left, and Butler Mu ran non-stop to Mu Ping in the middle of the line, his old eyes were red.

Immediately afterwards, there was a loud shout: "Second Master, this old slave finally found you!"

Mu Ping's hand was suddenly held, and he pulled back reflexively.

After seeing clearly that it was Butler Mu, Mu Ping's eyes immediately turned red, and he stuffed his withdrawn hand into Butler Mu's again.

"Butler Mu?"

"It's me, Second Master!"

"Second Master, you have suffered all the way, where is Miss?"

Butler Mu's eyes wandered around the four girls Jiang Zhiyue, Mu Qiqi, Zhang Xiaoyan and Ming Yuanqing, a little unsure which one was the second wife of their Mu family.

He has only seen Mu Qiqi once since she was born, and he is still a little baby who can just walk, how can he know what Mu Qiqi looks like now.

He could only estimate the age in his heart, and found that except for the one who looked the youngest, the other three ages could match.

Mu Ping pulled out Mu Qiqi who was standing with Jiang Zhiyue behind him.

He said lovingly: "This is Qiqi."

Butler Mu looked at Mu Qiqi, and his eyes turned even redder.

The second master and young lady of their Mu family have suffered a great crime. They have all become... thinner?
No, why didn't it become thinner?

Butler Mu's surge of sadness was suddenly stuck in his throat, he couldn't get up or down, and his face was flushed with suffocation.

This is not only not thin, it feels quite rosy.

Butler Mu: "..." So the second master and miss are really refugees who escaped famine?
He looked at the rest of their group. Although he said they were a little dusty, they were in better condition than many people in the city, and they didn't look like refugees at all.

Butler Mu was already numb. He wiped away the tears that dangled in his eyes but hadn't had time to fall, and said, "Second Master, let me take you to the government office to register first, and then we will go back to the office."

Then he looked at Mr. Jiang and Jiang Rong and said, "You are all friends who came with my second master. I will take you to register first. You must come to our house as guests later."

Butler Mu walked ahead and took them to the refugee registration place in Los Angeles to help them settle down.

Those people knew that this was someone the Mu family knew, and they quickly prepared all the matters.

After the refugee registration, they need to be allocated a place to live. Because of the relationship with the Mu Mansion, the Jiang family and his party found it convenient and found a pretty good place to go.

Not long after leaving Los Angeles and heading south, there is a village called Guhuai not far from a town, which is a good place to be surrounded by mountains and rivers.

The Jiang family and his party were placed there.

And each refugee has a resettlement fee of five taels of silver, and when they are registered, the government will directly give them the silver.

Originally, the government should send someone to lead them directly to Guhuai Village, but Butler Ke Mu directly took this task as well.

After receiving the certificate, the Jiang family and his party were taken out by Butler Mu.

He smiled and explained: "Everyone must be tired all the way, why don't you follow me to the mansion to have a rest before going out for a walk?"

The Jiang family originally wanted to settle down in Guhuai Village first.

After all, Mu Ping and Mu Qiqi are reunited with their families, so it's not easy for outsiders like them to disturb them.

But Butler Mu's kindness was hard to turn down, and he just stopped them, a large group of people, by himself.

And there is a reason for Butler Mu to be so enthusiastic. How could he not know about his own second master?
The size is just a person who only knows medical skills, who can't shoulder or handle, and what's more, Miss is such a beautiful little girl.

There must have been a lot of care from this family along the way.

If the master knew that he only took the second master back, he would definitely say that he was not doing well.

……

The Jiang family followed Steward Mu through a few more streets, and finally arrived in front of the Mu Mansion.

There are two majestic stone lions in front of the gate of Mu Mansion. Looking back, there is a plaque hanging high above the vermilion gate: Mu Mansion.

Although the Mu family is a family of medicine, it is still a businessman in essence, so Jiang Zhiyue is not surprised that the Mu family looks so rough.

But the others were shocked. They looked at Mu Ping and asked, "Mr. Mu, is this your home?"

Mu Ping replied with a smile, and Butler Mu answered, "This is where the second master lived since he was a child."

While speaking, several people had already arrived in front of the gate of Mu Mansion. The guard at the gate was a little puzzled when he saw Steward Mu came back with a group of people behind him.

But Butler Mu's happy voice has already passed: "Go and inform the master, our second master is back!"

Second Master?

Second Lord! ! !

The boy guarding the gate was shocked.

They have been in the mansion for a short time, but they also know that the master has a brother who lives in the east of the capital.

Some time ago there was an earthquake and locust plague and severe drought, so the master sent many people to pick up the second master.

But no one was found.

Now it's back!
The boy became excited in an instant, and he turned around in a panic to see the way in, and then ran in very quickly.

He ran and shouted happily, and his voice spread far away.

"Master, good news, Second Master was brought back by Butler Mu!"
