Dressed as the best old lady in the famine years, I suddenly became rich

Chapter 221 I won’t go back
Many outsiders have settled in the village in the past two days, so it is normal that no more rooms can be vacated.

After all, they are all outsiders, and outsiders will certainly not be allowed to enter the central area of ​​the house.

"I feel relieved if Auntie can understand." Zhu Er led the people forward and said, "Our village is very big and there are a lot of people there, but there have been no outsiders before, and everyone is basically a rough old man, so there are few It’s just enough for each person to squeeze into one house, so there aren’t many houses built in the village.”

Zhu Er found an open space and said, "Madam, you guys, please pitch your tent here. If you need anything, just come to me. I've been in the village these days. If you have anything, you can come to me at any time. I'll assign it to you and try to handle it as smoothly as possible." "

Ke Muqing thanked him, and Zhu Er called a few brothers to help Ke Muqing set up the tent.

Several men were touching here and there in the tent, and some of them thought they were touching the little wife.

"Auntie, you have a lot of good things. This tent is really strong. The steel pillars are dug into the ground and they hold tightly. No matter how strong the wind is, they can't blow them away. This tent is stronger than the tents used in military camps. "

Zhu Er just can't stop talking, talks a lot, and loves to chatter.

After helping set up the tent, they heard Feng Ying and others saying that they wanted to set up a stove for cooking. Zhu Eryou asked his brothers to help them set up a row of stoves. When he asked Ke Muqing that they didn't need food, they all brought their own. Zhu Er laughed. Happier.

"I just like people like aunty who bring their own food as guests. They are so sensible." Zhu Er murmured to his brothers when he left.

"Chen Hu and the others are locked up in the village. What are you going to do with Chen Hu and the others?"

"Sister, please sit down." Yin Tang moved the big stone that served as a chair to Ke Muqing, but Ke Muqing was not polite to him.

With such a loud voice, I thought people like Ke Muqing couldn't hear me.

Ke Muqing nodded, "There are probably less than a third left, and most of them are children and young women, but there are also a few handsome men."

"Ms. Li and the refugees who are still alive are also in the village."

"Auntie, are there not many refugees still alive?" Wang Jianzhong asked.

There were nearly 200 of these exiled prisoners when they set out from the capital. They were attacked by bandits on the way and most of them died. When they regrouped and set off again, there were still more than 100 people. But after that night, there were only a few who were still alive. Only about thirty people.

Speaking of this, Ke Muching paused and said, "This journey has been very difficult for you. Now that you have encountered such a disaster, you should think about the future."

Wang Jianzhong was seriously injured. He gritted his teeth and held on all the way up. Now he is lying in the tent to rest.

"Master Wang Cha, I came to tell you something." Ke Muqing opened the curtain and walked in. Yin Tang and Zheng Hui were also there. Ke Muqing said, "It just so happens that you are all here."

The crisis was over and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Ke Muqing was free and then went to talk to Wang Jianzhong.

"Not to mention that Prince Zhuang is dead, just because so many prisoners have died, even if we continue to do this job, we may not be able to save our lives when we return to the capital."

The incident of mountain bandits is closely related to King Zhuang, and if King Zhuang dies, his government servants who return to Beijing to resume their duties will definitely suffer the wrath of the Queen Mother. They are all powerless. If the Queen Mother is angry, with good luck, they will not be able to do their job. If you are given death for doing well, if your luck is bad, your whole family may be implicated and beheaded.

"If you fail to do your job well, you will die. If you return to Beijing, you will die. If you go back, you will implicate your father, brother, and family. What should we do if we go back?" Zheng Hui asked, "Although those prisoners were exiled, they are not all They all deserve death. How many people are like the Li family?" "I don't think we will go back." Zheng Hui looked at Mr. Wang Cha, "Boss, let people think that all of us died on the mountain. It is better for our parents to cry and be sad for a while than to die with us."

"As for those prisoners, how can we take care of them after we can't take care of ourselves?" Zheng Hui asked.

"Then let's assume that all of you, including the prisoners, were all killed that night." Ke Muqing said, "Now that Prince Zhuang is dead and Yandang Mountain is gone, how the news spreads depends on how we make it up. ?”

The people of Zhuang County already knew that the exiled prisoners and government officials were killed by bandits in Yandang Mountain.

Wang Jianzhong hesitated for a long time, then nodded slowly, "Yes."

"For us brothers, it doesn't matter if we die on the way to do errands, our families in Beijing can still be comforted and get a sum of money." Wang Jianzhong sighed.

So it would be great to die. After you die, you don’t have to go back and drag your parents down at home.

"Where is Chen Hu? I will definitely kill Chen Hu and others, and use their blood to sacrifice our brothers who died in vain!" Wang Jianzhong gritted his teeth when he mentioned Chen Hu and others, "I will also tell the truth about Chen Hu and others colluding with bandits. Come to Jingzhong!”

"I'm locked up in the village. You can kill him at any time." Ke Muqing looked at Yin Tang after finishing speaking, "But what are your plans in the future?"

Yin Tang must continue to go south with his family and Ke Muqing. Ke Muqing does not need to ask Yin Tang about this, otherwise it will be redundant. On the other hand, Wang Jianzhong and Zheng Hui didn't know what they were planning.

"I have nothing to offer and only strength. If the brothers in Weiwu Mountain don't despise me, they will stay in Weiwu Mountain after I recover from my injury." Wang Jianzhong said.

"That's all I can do." Zheng Hui sighed.

They have been taken care of by Ke Muqing along the way, and now they are still alive and lying here recuperating because Ke Muqing saved them several times.

Therefore, they were too embarrassed to continue dragging down Ke Muqing. For people like them who had reported mourning and lost their household registration, staying in Weiwu Mountain was their only choice.

This presupposes that Weiwu Mountain does not dislike their brothers and is willing to take them in.

"There's no need to worry about it. The world is changing rapidly now. Who knows what it will be like in a few days. No matter what, let's take care of our injuries first." Ke Muqing patted the two of them on the shoulders, "If Mighty Mountain really takes over the village, County, it will not be difficult for you to open a household in Zhuang County again, change your name and stay in Zhuang County and live the life of ordinary people. "

"What the aunt said makes sense." Zheng Hui smiled, "Hearing what the aunt said, I feel very hopeful about the future."

"No, as long as we are alive, we have hope. We are not people with any big ambitions. We are all ordinary people. How can we live without living? Right?"

Ke Muqing smiled and said, "Then I'll tell the Li family and let them make plans in advance."

"Auntie, go ahead." Wang Jianzhong nodded in agreement.

Feng Ying and others were already setting fire to cook, and several children gathered around Yang Chengzhuo to listen to him talk about the adventures of the three of them these days. Yang Chengzhuo didn't like reading, but he had his own way of telling stories, which frightened several children. I was stunned for a while, wow, for a while!
