After picking up the daughter of the lucky star, the whole village prospered

"The same is for you."

Ying Bao used all her strength to tighten his neck, not caring that his fingernails pinched deeply on her arm, and the blade in his hand pierced half a point.

The boy was in pain, and he didn't dare to use any more force, but still tightly held the girl's arm.

Seeing that her father, second cousin and aunt had already run over, Ying Bao immediately asked them to trap the young man by his hands and feet and take him into the carriage, called Xiao Hei back, and then drove away.

The group of people chased after them frantically, "Put him down! Let him down!"

Seeing that these people were about to grab the carriage, Yingbao threw the apples and melons on the carriage at them one by one.

The robbers were taken aback for a moment, and how many of them couldn't hold back and bent down to pick it up.

Two of them got the melon, smelled the tempting melon scent, and started to eat it on the spot.

God knows how long it had been since they had eaten food, but it was still this kind of fresh and sweet melon, and they couldn't stop eating it.

Just like that, there were only two people left chasing the carriage.

Yingbao smashed the last two apples and threw the empty basket at them as well.

The two of them didn't know whether they were tired from running or something, but they didn't catch up again.

The carriage rushed all the way, and soon drove far away.

I don't know how many miles I ran, I saw a post in front of me.

Ying Bao was relieved a little and asked Jiang Quan to let the boy go.

The boy was pushed off the carriage and fell to the side of the road, but he got up staggeringly, clutched his neck and ran back.

The carriage was still galloping, Jiang Sanlang asked: "Shall we report to the officials?"

Yingbao nodded: "I want to report to the officials!"

This group of people stopped at the intersection to rob, and I don't know how many people they have harmed. They only escaped by chance, so of course they have to report to the police.

Jiang Quan was puzzled: "Since you want to report to the police, why did you let that little robber go?"

Ying Bao: "Just in case." If he didn't keep his promise and sent the teenager to the post station, if a family member of the boy escaped, he would definitely try every means to get back.

And her family's carriage often travels between the county town and the countryside, and it is hard to guarantee that it will not be stopped by these people again.

At that time, it will not be just about cutting off roads and asking for money.

Jiang Sanlang and Jiang Yunniang also understood Yingbao's meaning and didn't say anything.

When the carriage came to the gate of the post station, Jiang Sanlang got off the car and reported to the post post what happened.

The postman went to tell the postman again, and the postman immediately summoned a dozen soldiers and chased them out on horseback.

Of course, Jiang Sanlang was also taken to identify him.

And at this time, it was getting dark.

Yingbao didn't have any hope of catching the robbers, but she still quietly waited for the news in the carriage, and cleaned Xiao Hei's wound by the way.

The aunt and the second cousin were not seriously injured, only their arms and body were beaten with sticks, and the cotton-padded clothes were also cut several times.

Fortunately, their cotton clothes were thick, and these incisions only scratched the cotton clothes and did not hurt the skin.

But Xiao Hei was seriously injured.

Because when Xiao Heipu bit people, he was also attacked by those people with sticks and sickles.

At this moment, there were not only lumps left by the beating with the stick, but also several bloody cuts on its body.

It was getting dark, and the postmen finally came back, but they did not find the robbers.

Jiang Sanlang was a little dejected, and ordered Jiang Quan to drive the carriage to leave.

Before leaving, the postman kindly gave them two torches, telling them to be careful on the road.

Fortunately, there is unmelted snow in the field, so that everyone's eyes will not be dimmed.

Jiang Sanlang drove the carriage carefully and remained silent all the way.

Ying Bao fed everyone a pill to refresh themselves, and then quietly took out two pieces of Wudingzhi leaves and stuffed them into Xiao Hei's mouth.

Xiao Hei finished eating obediently, and even licked the little master's face with his tongue.

After driving for another hour, I saw a carriage coming from the opposite side in the distance, and the torch was still burning on the carriage.

Ying Bao recognized it was his own carriage at a glance, and couldn't help crying out in surprise. "Uncle! Second uncle!"

Jiang Dalang and Jiang Erlang were also very happy to see the third brother, and quickly turned the carriage around.

When the two cars met, Uncle Jiang couldn't help asking: "How come this time?"

Jiang Sanlang didn't hide anything, and briefly explained the whole story: "I met a few robbers on the road, so I'll delay my time."

"Meet a robber? Are you not hurt?" Jiang Erlang asked hastily.

"It's okay." Jiang Sanlang shook his head, feeling scared when he thought about it. "It's also because we came back late." If we had traveled earlier, we might not have encountered these things.

Jiang Quan glanced at the third uncle guiltily, and said in a low voice, "It's all my fault." If he hadn't insisted on doing Guanpu business, the little cousin and the third uncle wouldn't have waited until the afternoon to rush back.

"It's fine, let's go back quickly, the whole family is waiting for you to have a New Year's Eve dinner." Jiang Erlang said.

The two cars drove back one after the other, carefully guarding their surroundings.

At this time, Yingbao had already let go of her heart.With the help of my uncle and my uncle, I am not afraid of another wave of robbers.

It's a pity that my hedgehog was kept in the cave for so long, and it was lost like this.

As soon as the carriage arrived at the entrance of the village, I saw old man Jiang standing under a saponin tree with a lantern in his hand, waiting anxiously.

He breathed a sigh of relief when his children and grandchildren came back. "Why so late?"

Jiang Sanlang recounted what happened on the road, and finally said: "I think that group of people look like refugees fleeing from famine. I don't know where they came from. We must be more careful. I will go and talk to the villagers about it later."

During the New Year's Eve, a group of refugees wandered around in Qinchuan County, blocking roads and robbing roads. This is very strange.

"I want to tell everyone that it will be terrible if we encounter bandits like the year before last again." Old man Jiang said: "Even if there is no, it is good to remind the people who are traveling."

On the second day of the new year, many people go out to visit relatives and friends. Once they meet, it is not fun.

Back home, Yingbao led Xiao Hei to the kitchen, and used old cotton wool to make a nest for him behind the kitchen.

He also took out gut and sewing needles, sewed up the opening on Xiao Hei's body, and then applied the medicine powder.

Xiao Hei trembled from the pain, but remained motionless, allowing the little master to sew needles and apply medicine to it.

Ying Bao rubbed its head and stuffed two pills into its mouth.

Rhubarb also came to join in the fun, pushing his head forward vigorously, and finally got his head touched by the little master, and his tail turned into a hot wheel.

...

January always passes quickly, people eat, drink, play and have fun, and it will soon be February.

On this day, Lizheng came to the door suddenly with a dozen or so townspeople, and handed over the roster in his hand to Jiang Sanlang.

"This spring the imperial court conscripts, and your village will send out a total of ten people."

These rosters are all issued from the household registration office of the county government, and whoever should be listed clearly remembers clearly.

Jiang Dalang's family has two sons, Jiang Da and his second son Jiang Quan, so one of them must go to war.

The situation of the patriarch's son's family is basically the same as that of Jiang Dalang's family, and one person was also conscripted.

Even Chen Sanyou's eldest son's family had to fight Yiding.

"This...why do we need to be recruited again?" This time, the common people have been harvested wave after wave like leeks, and they will not be able to live a peaceful life for a few years.

Sun Lizheng closed the roster: "The governor of Yizhou rebelled, and the Liao bandits rebelled. This year, the state capital is recruiting soldiers in all counties. We have to recruit 200 people from our township alone. Alas."

This time there were [-] young and strong men, and I don't know how many of them will come back in the end.

Jiang Sanlang took the roster and looked it over, and couldn't help but frown, because he found that there were more than 2000 people from Qinchuan County who went to the expedition.

What does this mean?It shows that the front line suffered a lot of casualties, and a large number of soldiers need to be dispatched from various counties to fill the vacancies.

"Can I buy pawns this time?" Jiang Sanlang asked.

Sun Lizheng glanced at him, and said earnestly: "I know that your village is rich, but because of this, I have to remind you, no matter what, there must be no fewer people in our township."

Please ask for a monthly pass at the end of the month. If you have extra monthly passes, please support Erjiu. Thank you.
