Disastrous year!Before the whole family is wiped out, a little blessing falls from the sky!

Sesame Ball flicked his tail in boredom, and was afraid of waking up the fat girl. The amplitude of his tail was very small, which made him look a little aggrieved.

Liu Dongniang was so funny that she stepped forward and rubbed its big head, and wiped the noodle soup from its mouth with her apron. Finally, she whispered, "Sesame ball, take good care of Zhuzhu. I'm going to work. I'll give it to you tonight." Prepare a pot of bones, okay?"

Sesame Ball's happy tail wagged a couple more times, obviously the deal was done.

Liu Dongniang stood up and was about to leave, but she suddenly woke up without thinking about Zhuzhu. Her big eyes were full of fear, and she cried while holding her mouth.

Liu Dongniang was startled and quickly held the fat girl in her arms and patted her gently to comfort her.

"What's wrong with Zhuzhu? Are you having a nightmare? Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. Auntie is here!"

"Aww, Aunt! There are bad people!" The fat girl hugged her aunt's neck and burst into tears as she cried, but she seemed afraid of what to say.

In the end, she just shouted, "Grandpa, Zhuzhu wants grandpa!"

Liu Dongniang rarely saw the fat girl like this, so she was a little anxious, so she quickly chased Sesame Ball away.

"Sesame Ball, go to the field and call the old man back! Hurry up!"

Sesame Ball ran out of the thatched shed and went straight to the corn field.

As the old saying goes, there is strength in numbers, and when it comes to work, numbers of people mean speed.

Seeing that the corn harvest outside his village was about to be finished, the old man planned to lead a group of soldiers to Zhangjiacun. However, before he could set off, Sesame Ball ran over and screamed, then bit his trouser leg and dragged him towards the village. Pull.

The old man was caught off guard and was almost dragged down, but fortunately he was supported by soldiers.

A soldier had a bad temper and raised his foot to kick the sesame ball away. The old man immediately stopped him and said, "Wait a minute, little brother, please show mercy!"

He squatted down, patted the sesame ball with his good hand, and told it not to worry, and then he said to everyone, "This dog has been raised in our house since he was a child. When my grandson was abducted, he was the one who took him." Everyone found it. So, although it is a dog, it is no different from our own child.

Maybe it was worried about something today, so it was so reckless, otherwise it would never have been like this. "

The grumpy soldier felt embarrassed and said quickly, "I'm sorry, old man, I don't know..."

The old man quickly waved his hand and said with a smile, "It doesn't matter, you don't know the inside story. I'm afraid whoever sees it will think this bitch is crazy!"

After that, he called Tai Jizu over, "Boss, you take the little brothers to Zhangjia Village to collect corns, and I'll go home first. Remember to bring the little brothers back for dinner early in the evening, so as not to work hungry. "

"Got it, Dad."

Tai Jizu quickly agreed, and then called on the soldiers to follow him.

Mr. Tai held the pot of his pipe in his hand, walked away and ran straight home.

Tai Sanye originally wanted to talk to him, but he shouted a few words from a distance, but he didn't even hear him...

Zhuzhu's big eyes were red from crying, her little mouth was pursed tightly, and she refused to speak no matter how much Liu Dongniang coaxed her.

Liu Dongniang finally saw the old man appear at the door of the thatched shed, and she almost cried.

"Dad, you are back! Zhuzhu cried when she woke up and said she was scared! She didn't say anything when I asked her!"

The old man quickly picked up the fat granddaughter. Seeing the fat girl crying with beads of sweat on her forehead, and fearing that she might catch the wind, he hurriedly took off his coat and wrapped the fat girl tightly.

"Second daughter-in-law, you go and do your work, I'll coax this girl!"

Liu Dongniang breathed a sigh of relief and went to work quickly.

Seeing that there was no one around, the old man called Sesame Ball to guard the door, and then asked in a low voice, "Why is Zhuzhu crying? Did she dream about bad guys?" Zhuzhu nodded vigorously and leaned into his grandfather's ear, He said, "Grandpa, there are bad guys beating people with whips, beating many people! They don't even let people eat, and they have to work at night, how pitiful!"

The old man frowned when he heard this, his mind was spinning so fast that he was going to smoke, and he couldn't figure out what this dream meant.

On the way, he thought about whether the people behind the scenes were going to do something bad again, such as setting fires or robbing corns, but he never expected that to be the case.

There are many people working, and some people are beating them with whips?
A supervisor?
Or forced labor in captivity?

"Zhuzhu, what do those people look like? Do you know them?"

The old man tentatively asked a few more questions. Unexpectedly, the fat girl actually nodded and started counting with her fingers, "Uncle Youcai, Tiedan's father, Sangouzi brother's father! And..."

The old man's expression immediately changed. They are all from the village!
"Is there anyone you don't recognize?"

Zhuzhu frowned, nodded and shook her head, "There are so many people, so many people! Zhuzhu forgot..."

The old man quickly comforted him, "If you forget, forget it. Zhuzhu is not afraid, grandpa knows!"

At this time, Yang Lihua heard her sister-in-law talking and rushed over. Seeing that the old man was in the house, she breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Dad, did Zhuzhu have a nightmare again?"

The old man nodded, thought for a while and said, "Zhuzhu dreamed that many people were working. I guess they were forced to do labor or were taken away to do hard labor. You look after the child first, and I will go find your third uncle to discuss a few words."

Yang Lihua's expression immediately changed and she quickly took over the child, not wanting to delay the old man's business.

In this world, it is really difficult for ordinary people to survive!
If war breaks out, they have to leave their homes and flee.

Secondly, I am afraid that there will be disasters in successive years, and even a year of hard work will not be enough to feed the whole family.

Third, I am afraid that the government will increase taxes and impose corvee labor, and the family will be separated and die from exhaustion!

Now that the war has not started and the disaster has just passed, will the corvee come soon?

God is so cruel that he won’t allow people to live in peace!
Mr. Tai held the pot of his pipe and panted a little tiredly. He wanted to catch up with his old brother and ask what happened.

As a result, as soon as we arrived at the entrance of the village, the old brother came out.

He took his old brother and sat under the big tree at the entrance of the village and asked, "What happened? Are you running back in a hurry? Is there something wrong with the cashmere business?"

"No," the old man shook his head and replied, "Jiye is now very good at doing business. With his arrangements, everything goes smoothly.

Not only had the goods to be brought into the grassland been purchased, but the carriage transporting corn seeds had also been found for Brother He. "

"That's good, that's good!" Mr. Tai nodded repeatedly, "As soon as we finish harvesting the corns, let the team set off quickly. If it snows early, they will have to endure hardship outside."

After that, he asked again, "You haven't said anything yet, what happened?"

The old man was a little hesitant. After all, his granddaughter's nightmare had not been confirmed yet. If something went wrong, the old man would be worried.

Master Tai San saw that he was in trouble and was even more confused.

It's always been the two old brothers who had discussions. Why did they keep it a secret today? What on earth is going on!
He was a little anxious, so he waved his pipe and pot and asked, "Sixth, what happened? Tell me quickly, you are going to kill me!"

The old man quickly comforted him, "Third brother, don't worry, it's not a big deal, I was thinking..." (End of Chapter)
