After transmigrating into a stepmother, I transformed my whole family to work on farming

Oh, Qin Yao doesn’t count.

Her mood was not heavy at all, because she had just thought about it.

The civilian husband who has not returned at this time has a 90.00% probability that he is gone, or is buried somewhere unknown.

What's more, they were not buried, but rotted somewhere, and were eaten by wild beasts until only a few bones were left.

Liu Qi is tall and capable, and Qin Yao likes this young man very much.

But people cannot be resurrected after death, so they can only pat the old village chief on the shoulder comfortingly and express condolences.

The village chief looked confused, "Ms. Qin, you don't seem to be worried about your Liu Ji at all?"

The old man suddenly remembered that when the civil servants were recruited, Qin Yao was the only one in the village who took the initiative to fill in his name.

Others were either urged by him or looked helpless and did not want to do corvee work at all.

Qin Yao is still hanging out in the village, how can she be suspected of murdering her husband?
He immediately explained: "I'm worried, but it's useless to worry. I'm just trying to comfort myself and think in a better direction."

The village chief's doubts were finally dispelled and he sighed: "You are also a miserable person."

Qin Yao secretly raised her eyebrows, how could she be so miserable?
Since she gave up Liu Ji, a loser, her waist no longer hurts, her legs no longer hurt, she eats deliciously, can cook five bowls of rice in one meal, and sleeps until dawn!

If you can stop farming and become a landowner, your life will be complete.

Qin Yao rode a horse in front, and the village chief and others rode in an ox cart behind. They walked from noon to dusk, and arrived at the county seat of Kaiyang County before sunset.

The last time she came, Qin Yao felt that it would be less lively due to the lack of people.

This time I went to the city, maybe because there were more people coming back, it felt very different.

The specific difference is that there are more voices crying, laughing and laughing.

Those who came back naturally smiled.

Those who could not come back gathered at the gate of the government office, waiting for the death list to be posted.

The village chief arranged the five villagers in a teahouse, greeted Qin Yao, and the two of them went to the small courtyard next to the county government office.

A young official opened the door, let the two people in, and then closed the door immediately.

The official recognized Qin Yao and called Madam Qin in surprise.

However, there was no trace of this person in Qin Yao's memory. She looked at him with some suspicion, "Who are you?"

The official gave a wry smile and said that his name was Zhou Zheng, and he had previously followed Qin Yao to Yuhua Mountain to suppress bandits.

Qin Yao looked suddenly enlightened, but in fact she didn't remember it at all.

Zhou Zheng didn't care about these details. He knew why the village chief came here. He invited the two of them to sit down in the house, poured two cups of hot tea, and then said:

"I have arranged for Liu Qi to work under Shangguan Lie. He is a veteran with sufficient experience and strong martial arts skills. The food transport team that followed him in the past can basically save the day, so he should still be on the way."

"Besides, I haven't received Liu Qi's name yet. Don't worry, uncle, that guy might be back in a few days."

When Qin Yao heard this uncle, she thought that the village chief had a nephew who was working as an errand in the yamen.

Zhou Zheng looked at Qin Yao again, "Is there anyone in Mrs. Qin's family who has joined the grain transport team?"

Qin Yao nodded, glanced at the village chief, and when the village chief signaled her to ask boldly, she said, "My husband's name is Liu Ji. He also left with the grain transport team, but he has not come back now."

"Huh?" Zhou Zheng felt that the name sounded familiar. After thinking for a while, he said in surprise: "What a coincidence, this person I have met is a particularly handsome scholar, slightly younger than me?" Qin Yao looked at it in surprise. She nodded to him, "Yes, she has a pretty face."

Zhou Zheng immediately gave Qin Yao a reassuring expression, "I'm in the same team with Liu Qi, both under Shangguan Lie. Maybe the two of them will come back together and are still on the way."

There was one more thing Zhou Zheng didn't say.

That is, the reason why he placed the person under Shangguan Lie was because he received five cents in benefits from him.

They are all people from Liu's village, so of course they have to take care of them.

"I didn't expect that he is your husband-in-law, Madam Qin." Zhou Zheng was even more surprised than Qin Yao. He thought that a heroine like Qin Yao who suppressed bandits should be matched with a stronger man than her to suppress her.

Who would have thought that her husband-in-law was actually a weak scholar.

The village chief asked about the other five people, and Zhou Zheng's expression darkened, "There are on the list. I from Liujia Village checked it out, and there are exactly eight names."

The village chief sighed, not knowing how to tell the five families the bad news.

But knowing that his grandson might be fine, he finally felt relieved, and asked Zhou Zheng to help him pay more attention in the Yamen. If he saw Liu Qi back in the city, or if he appeared on the list, let him know as soon as possible.

Zhou Zheng comforted him: "Uncle, you are overthinking it. That guy Liu Qi is tall and strong, so he must be fine."

"Just go back and wait. They will be back in a few days!"

He smiled lightly at Qin Yao and told her not to worry. He felt that Liu Ji was very smart with his facial features and would probably not die.

He just didn't say the last sentence. After saying the last sentence, Qin Yao was not feeling well.

The two village chiefs only thought she was worried, and their eyes were full of sympathy.

After leaving Zhou Zheng's house, it was completely dark.

Zhou Zheng originally wanted to leave the two of them to rest at home for one night, because there were still five villagers staying in the teahouse, but the village chief refused.

Qin Yao followed the village chief, and the two of them returned to the teahouse with solemn expressions. Before they spoke, the five people had already gotten the answer from their expressions. They lowered their heads one by one, silently with red eyes.

The city gate was closed and there was no way to go back today. Qin Yao took people to Shopkeeper Fan's restaurant and opened a large shop and two single rooms.

Five villagers slept in a bunk bed, and she and the village chief each had a single room.

The villagers said they would pay the room fee to Qin Yao when they returned to the village. Qin Yao waved her hand, forget it, she is treating them today.

They are all from the same village, and their wives and sons all work in her waterwheel factory. As a boss, Qin Yao is unambiguous when it comes to being generous.

So a few people thanked them, ate something to fill their stomachs, and went back to their rooms to rest in a low mood.

They are all children he has watched grow up, and the village chief feels uncomfortable. In addition, there is no news about Liu Qi yet. He sits in the corner of the lobby with Qin Yao and insists on asking her to analyze the relationship between Liu Qi and Liu Ji. Approximately where to go.

It's nothing if you don't analyze it. Once you analyze it, Qin Yao has a bad feeling - Liu Ji is probably not dead.

He was well prepared when he left. He had brought warm clothes and thick-soled shoes, and he had not left behind his raincoat or bamboo hat.

If nothing else happens, everything will be fine along the way from Kaiyang County to Xuanyue Pass.

The only place where he could die was outside Xuanyue Pass.

Liu Ji has no martial arts skills but an above-average IQ. He took her dagger away. If he just hides and defends, the probability of being stabbed to death by the enemy is at most 50.00%.

There is another point that gives Qin Yao a huge headache. Liu Ji's dodge skills have been perfected under her daily beating.
