I farmed and raised children in ancient times

Chapter 152 Acceptance
These people stared blankly at Zhou Li's enthusiastic expression, and then looked at the expressions of other people who were accustomed to it, and their mood gradually became complicated.

Obviously they all suffered from floods, and some people there have died of starvation and disease, but the people here not only have big white steamed buns to eat, but also have new houses to live in soon, and even replanted crops...

The short-term envy was still attracted by the big white steamed buns. Several people wolfed down a white steamed bun with one hand and gnawed it. Mrs. Zhou Li thoughtfully brought some tea for them to drink.

Only when their stomachs were full did they have a real feeling.

"Now tell me, what happened?"

One of the oldest middle-aged men among those people finally spoke. Xie Zhilan, Xie Cheng and others were listening quietly, but the more they listened, the more frightened they became.

But it turned out that when they were in full swing to improve their lives, there were other places where the people were already in dire straits, and they were in a panic.

"...Those refugee soldiers were originally from refugees, and no one would be able to tell if they mingled with the people casually. At first, everyone lived in peace, but when we found some food, those people would rush forward, not only taking things away , and even blatantly arrested all those strong people, if they didn't follow, they would be kicked and punched, and sometimes they would even be killed by the knife..."

As they narrated, the chill rose from the soles of everyone's feet little by little, Zhou Li even couldn't help but look at the people working outside - they have taken in a lot of refugees these days!

Xie Cheng's face was heavy, and when those people finished speaking, he subconsciously looked at Xie Zhilan.

I don't know when, this little girl who originally needed the care of him, the village chief, has grown into their backbone.

"Alan, should we..."

I didn't finish the rest of the sentence, but Xie Zhilan understood.

Shangcaizhuang is actually not that far away from their Qingping County, at most forty or fifty miles away, if they are all mixed in with the refugee army, then they should not be able to avoid it here.

It's just that they have taken in a lot of refugees these days, but most of them are very obedient and honest, and they really can't see anything wrong.

You can't suspect that these people have impure motives just because you heard about such a thing, right?
Moreover--

Thinking of the two hidden guards Qin Sheng sent to her side, Xie Zhilan's heart inexplicably settled down.

Although he was worried about his own safety, if such a thing really happened, they would definitely not sit idly by.According to her estimates, most of the current refugee army is just ordinary people, and there are not many people who can really beat them. Even if they really want to make something here, I am afraid that Ning Xi alone will kill them. It can be solved.

Thinking of this, she smiled to comfort them: "Don't worry, just treat them as ordinary people. We treat them sincerely. If they want to, they won't make things difficult for us. If they are really ruthless, we won't Vegetarian, right?"

"That's the reason..." Mrs. Zhou Li nodded, as if remembering that she used to dislike Xie Zhilan because of her sister-in-law, but it was Xie Zhilan who helped their family without forgetting the past.

Therefore, there is nothing wrong with changing your heart for your heart.

but--

"Alan, my aunt's words are not good. We know people, know their faces, but don't know their hearts. We still have to tell our people to pay more attention to the behavior of these people. If there is something wrong, we can press the trouble to the ground in time, so as not to be disturbed by them." Our happy future! What do you think?"

Xie Zhilan couldn't help laughing, "Aunt Zhou is right. Village chief, let's do this!"

Not only did Xie Zhilan listen to what she said, but she also agreed with it. Mrs. Zhou Li was very happy. She didn't wait for the village chief to express her opinion, and immediately said happily: "Village chief, I will inform you about this matter, and I guarantee that no one will be left behind!"

Seeing this, Xie Cheng relaxed and couldn't help laughing.

"That's hard work for you!"

Now the atmosphere in the whole village is much better than before. In the past, these people would even care about this and that with him, but now dozens of families are as good as one family.

These are all thanks to Xie Zhilan.

Those few people were a little envious of the thriving scene in Daliushu Village. When Mrs. Zhou Li left, they couldn't help asking Xie Cheng, "Village... Village Chief, do you still accept people in your village? We would like to join you Village!!"

"Yes, yes! We would all like to join your village!"

"We can work, we can do anything!"

While talking, several people rolled up their sleeves to show them their arms.

But seeing their arms, Xie Zhilan's heart still twitched slightly.

Maybe they themselves haven't paid attention to their bodies for a long time, and the muscles that were supposed to be strong are almost skinny now.Blue veins criss-crossed on the back of the clenched fist, although they still left a sun-tanned appearance, but no matter how they looked, it didn't match their age.

Xie Cheng's expression was moved, and he agreed almost without hesitation.

"Okay! From now on, you are the villagers of our Daliushu Village!"

Xie Zhilan has no objection to this either.

She called Zhang Jingwan and asked him to arrange a residence for these people first, and then added two more rows of houses to the original plan for those who were willing to join Daliu Village to live in.

After solving this matter, she remembered the matter of the refugee army, and after thinking about it, she decided to ask Ning Wen to pass the news back to Qin Sheng first.

If his people still don't know about this matter, once the entire Yingchuan is infiltrated by the refugee army, it will not be so easy to clear it up at that time!
Ning Wen got the news and realized the seriousness of the matter and immediately returned to the county seat. Xie Zhilan was relieved and started to continue to promote the replanting.

Most of the barren fields from Daliushu Village to the outside have been replanted with crops. Now, except for the group of people who built the houses, most people have been sent out to continue farming.

All good fields are planted with food, while some not-so-good lands are planted with soybeans and sweet potatoes, and some places near water sources are arranged to plant a lot of easy-to-storage vegetables.

Although everyone was surprised by the sweet potato seedlings she took out, Xie Zhilan provided them with food and drink during this time. Although they had doubts in their hearts, they were still very grateful. In addition, people continued to bring them big white steamed buns. Therefore, no one complains of being tired even though it is hard work.

"Thank you girl, take a break!"

Ning Xi thoughtfully poured her a bowl of water.

Originally, she was supposed to make a pot of fragrant tea for her, but the conditions in the village were limited, so she could only boil a pot of plain water.

Xie Zhilan was indeed thirsty, so she picked it up and drank a few big gulps, and was very satisfied with this little girl in her heart.

The temperature of the water is just right, and I don't know how this girl prepared it...

"Son—"

Ning Xi suddenly shouted in surprise.

Xie Zhilan hurriedly turned her head, only to see that at some point, Qin Sheng had a carriage approaching her, and the door curtain of the carriage was lifted, revealing Qin Sheng's face that turned all living beings upside down.

It's just that Xie Zhilan found that the expression he looked at himself at this time was not as relaxed as it was when they parted in the morning.

An ominous premonition emerged in her heart!
