There is a little cute baby in the family, fleeing famine is not enough to get rich and busy

Chapter 130 It Doesn't Look Right Today

People are sympathetic to the weak.

Although Qi Ercai's group was large in number, the elderly and children accounted for the majority, so the officers and soldiers naturally believed their words.

The people who were cut were dragged away and locked in the prison in the city first. From tomorrow onwards, they would be brought out to the public every day when the city gate was opened, and thrown back into the prison after the city gate was closed.

Although two meals a day will be provided, no one will die from starvation, but similarly, no doctor will be sent for treatment.

The public demonstration will last anywhere from ten days to a month. Whether a person can survive to be released depends on whether the person's life is hard enough.

As for the companions of the strong man, they scattered and fled with the other people around when the officers and soldiers arrested him.

It would take too much time to catch them one by one, not to mention that those people didn't really do it, so they could only let it go.

But after this incident, even if other people want to come and do something bad, they have to weigh it.

Yi dreamed that the bad guy was captured and hurried to find his daughter.

The crying just now was so miserable that she felt pain in her heart.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she hugged the child in her arms, the little girl stopped crying.

Blinking a pair of big eyes, grinning at her.

Look at those eyes, they are watery, but not wet, they don't look like they have been crying at all!

"you you……"

Looking at her daughter's smiling face, Yi Meng didn't know what to say for a while.

This girl was pretending to cry just now!
It also looks very similar!

Looking at the other children around, they were really crying miserably with tears and snot all over their faces.

"mother……"

Qi Manman grabbed his mother's clothes, calling out in a childish voice.

Yi Meng's heart melted in an instant, and she kissed her daughter on the forehead, and said in a low voice: "Stop crying, just listen to grandma honestly, mother, go and see your brother and the others."

"Uh-huh!"

Qi Manman nodded quickly, his appearance was very cute.

Yi Meng was sure that her daughter was fine, so she hurried to see her three sons.

Qi Liulang is only one year older than his two younger brothers, and he is still a child at the age of seven.

When Yi Meng found the three sons, he saw Qi Liulang was crying and wiping away the twin brothers' tears.

Distressed, Yi Meng hurried forward, hugged the twins into her arms, and dragged the eldest son Qi Liulang to the front, wiping his tears with a handkerchief.

Although he prefers daughters, but the son is also his own, and it is absolutely a lie to say that he does not feel distressed.

Yi Meng gently wiped away the tears of the three sons, and then coaxed them, so the three children stopped crying with sobs.

Qi Ercai led four other men to guard the outermost side, holding a kitchen knife and machete in his hand, observing the surroundings all the time.

The old people coaxed the children, and the women continued to work.

Boil water and wipe the children's faces and hands.

It was getting darker.

Fires were lit one after another at the base of the wall on the other side of the city gate, and many people sat around each fire.

No one spoke, even the children were quietly nestling in their mother's arms, eating and dozing off.

The temperature was still very low, and everyone was huddled close together, using each other's warmth to fight against the chill brought by the cold wind.

"Is there still no shadow?"

Qi Zheng's cigarette pouch has long since run out of tobacco leaves, but he still habitually takes two puffs on his own cigarette stick.

Now he came to Qi Ercai's side, looking into the distance while talking.

It's just that there are clouds in the sky, and there is no moonlight or starlight, so everyone can't see how far away.

"not yet."

Qi Ercai shook his head, raised his hand and rubbed his face that was hardened by the night wind: "Father, go to the fire! It's cold here, and it's easy to get sick when the cold wind blows."

"Ugh!"

Qi Zheng sighed, looked back at the other people who were resting together, and said in a low voice: "I don't know what it will be like when I enter the city tomorrow. The entry fee and the money for settlement can be used to sell ginseng. I have to buy land and build a house when I come down, and rent a house no matter how bad it is. The weather is getting colder, and the food and drink will cost a lot of money."

These questions have been pressing on Qi Zheng's mind.

It's just that there were too many people before, so it was difficult for him to speak out, for fear that everyone would be worried.

Now that the fourth son and the others haven't come back from chopping firewood, he can only talk to his second son.

Qi Ercai's heart choked up.

He also thought about these things, but he didn't dare to express too much worry, for fear that the old people would follow suit.

At this moment, he also said with a smile: "Father, you don't have to worry about it. Ginseng is valuable, and it must be enough for us to settle down. As you said, we can rent a yard for everyone to live in for the winter."

"The winter here in Tabei Prefecture is longer than that in our hometown. We will have plenty of time to study the next thing."

"As for what you said about eating and drinking, then don't worry about it. Look at our current inventory. If nothing else, just say that those chestnuts can last for a while."

"What's more, we all have the strength to carry the big bag. We can survive anyway, don't worry!"

Qi Ercai said it easily, but he was not at all relaxed in his heart, it was just to appease his father's emotions.

Qi Zheng is not that kind of old-fashioned fool, he naturally understands that the second son's words are more to comfort himself.

It's not easy for the children, so don't put too much pressure on yourself.

Qi Zheng patted Qi Ercai on the shoulder, then turned around and went back to rest beside the fire.

After dark, without the starry sky and the moon, it is impossible to tell the time.

I only know that the wind has become stronger, even if there are two layers of boards separated, the flames can still be seen beating restlessly, and the frequency has increased a lot.

"got windy."

Qi Chengshi gathered the quilt covering Qi Manman's body.

Yi Meng hurriedly lifted the quilt that Qi Cheng was wearing: "Mother, we don't have to sleep outside tomorrow, we will boil more hot water then, you should take a good hot bath to relieve fatigue. "

"It's not just me, we all have to make a good bubble."

Qi Cheng looked at the sky with a smile: "I haven't slept in the house for so many days, and I feel weird when I think that I will be able to sleep in the house soon."

We can enter the city tomorrow.

It's like that carrot hanging in front of the donkey, that's hope.

Yi Meng also laughed, and also looked up at the sky.

The sky is pitch black, not a single star is visible.

Such a night sky made Yi Meng's heart tighten, and she whispered: "It doesn't look right this day, can't it be snowing?"

"Probably not!"

Qi Cheng said so, but the smile on his face disappeared.

In such a cold day, if it snows again, it will be fatal!

Just when the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were worried about the weather, they suddenly heard someone shouting: "I'm back!"

In an instant, everyone, even those beside the fire, stood up abruptly.
