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

Chapter 222: You will be free from now on

Ke Muqing smiled and rubbed his head as he passed by. When Feng Ying saw Ke Muqing coming, she stood up with a smile and asked, "Mom, would you like a cup of osmanthus tea first?"

Zheng Qiu Shuang explained with a smile, "When we ran, we took the osmanthus flowers from Luocheng with us. We picked them all. Long Chang was guilty, but the osmanthus flowers were not guilty. They are fragrant. My sister-in-law said she would make osmanthus cakes for us later."

"Let it cool down for a while. I'll come back later to drink." Ke Muqing went to the tent to find some food and then left.

The village was full of people from Weiwu Mountain, and all of them were men. Ke Muqing randomly found someone and asked for directions before heading over.

These exiled prisoners are all guarded. The Li family lives alone in a thatched house, and the rest of the people are crowded into another house.

The guards led Ke Muqing in and then left. After all, there were no prisoners from Weiwu Mountain here. They only had to watch and prevent them from running out. There was no need to keep a close eye on them.

"aunt."

Mrs. Li and Mrs. Li quickly stood up when they saw Ke Muqing. They saluted solemnly and thanked her, "Thank you to the Li family for your rescue. Our family is proud to be reunited."

"Mrs. Li San and I are considered friends, and I also respect you, the son of the Li family, so I volunteered." Ke Muqing waved his hand and handed the things to Mrs. Li, "There are some food in it. Please take it first." ”

Ke Muqing informed the two of Wang Jianzhong's decision, and then said, "Wang Cha has made this decision, which means that all of you in the Li family also died that night. From now on, you will no longer be exiled prisoners, and you will also be considered as prisoners." This way you gain freedom, so you have to plan for the future. ”

Mrs. Li and Mrs. Li were surprised, and then very surprised.

This is indeed a good thing for them.

Is there such a good thing?

"Thank you, aunt, for telling us this good news. We don't have to worry anymore, and our children don't have to suffer anymore." Mrs. Li and Mrs. Li Er had tears in their eyes.

"Everyone is fine." Ke Muqing smiled at the children before getting down to business with the two adults.

"The people of Chen County are simple, King Chen loves his people like his sons, and the people of Chen County mostly respect the sons of the Li family. Chen County should be a relatively stable place in the future."

"If you want to stay in Zhuang County, I will go to the city to get a fake household registration for your family, and your family will change their names and live in Zhuang County."

After Ke Muqing finished speaking, he looked at the children and asked them, "How are you all?"

"Chen County is actually not bad. If you can adapt to the climate in Chen County, Chen County will be a place to adapt to life." Ke Muqing's impression of Chen County can be said to be 100%.

"Thank you, madam, for your concern. We are all fine." Several children responded in unison.

The two of them cried with joy after surviving the disaster. It didn't matter to them that the adults endured hardships, but the children were still so young. They had blisters on their feet along the way. The blisters had not healed yet, and there was not a single spot on their feet that had good skin. place.

"Auntie, let's wait for the younger siblings to come and discuss it together." Mrs. Li and Mrs. Li said, "We want to hear what the younger siblings think about whether to stay in Zhuang County or go to Chen County."

"That's fine." Ke Muqing smiled and nodded, "I have asked the head master to send a message to Chen County for me. I think if Mrs. Li San goes to Chen County, she should receive the news soon. Anyway, you should know about this earlier. If you feel confident earlier, you don't have to worry anymore. "Mrs. Li is right." Mrs. Li felt sad.

The son of the Li family died in the battle, and the young children and women of the Li family had to live in this way if they wanted to live decently.

What's even more regrettable is that, seeing that they survived, their mother-in-law is gone.

Ke Muqing was still thinking about the osmanthus tea at home. He talked to his two sisters-in-law for a while, comforted them with a few words and then left.

The fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus was not just something to talk about. Ke Muqing smelled the smell of sweet-scented osmanthus coming from the direction of his home on the way back.

There are no sweet-scented osmanthus trees in the village, so the only one with this fragrance is her family.

When Ke Muqing went back, he saw Feng Ying and others spreading the oilcloth on the ground to dry the sweet-scented osmanthus. Ke Muqing was shocked when he saw the many sweet-scented osmanthus spread on the oilcloth.

"Did you pluck up all the sweet-scented osmanthus flowers in the mountains?" Ke Muqing asked.

"Mom didn't go there, so I don't know. There are several mountains connected with osmanthus trees, so we just picked a few trees." Feng Ying explained with a smile, "Every osmanthus tree in Luocheng is in full bloom. , we picked up the sweet-scented osmanthus under the tree with an oilcloth, and Yang Yi and the others shook the tree with great strength and picked up the sweet-scented osmanthus. "

The main reason is that there are many people from the Yang family and they are all hard-working people. If you pick them together, the number will definitely increase.

"You picked the sweet-scented osmanthus, and the people who went to the mountains to enjoy the flowers didn't chase you and scold you?" Ke Muqing asked.

"No way, we are not the only people who pick osmanthus. Many people come to the mountains to pick osmanthus. The locals come every year to pick osmanthus to make wine and make osmanthus cake. Luocheng's osmanthus wine and osmanthus cake are also very famous. It's a pity that we are in a hurry Escape, otherwise I would take a few jars of osmanthus wine and wrap some osmanthus cakes before leaving," Zheng Qiu Shuang responded.

Ke Muqing nodded in understanding. This means that in ancient times, people would not be scolded for picking flowers. If this were the 20th century, the Yang family would be on the local news headlines and be scolded to death.

Feng Ying also added red dates and honey to the sweet-scented osmanthus tea. When you drink it in one gulp, it feels warm.

"Dr. Zhou said that osmanthus is cold in nature, and adding some red dates can neutralize it. This honey is local osmanthus honey that we bought from people outside Luocheng. What do you think of it, mother? It's very mellow?" Feng Ying asked.

"It really smells good. I smelled it on the way." Ke Muqing praised.

"Mom, this honey is not cheap. A small jar cost us ten taels of silver. My sister-in-law and I had our hearts bleeding when we paid." Zheng Qiushuang said.

But when I thought about the fact that all the children at home like to eat sweet things, it was rare to find honey or osmanthus honey, so Zheng Qiu Shuang and Feng Ying, the two sisters-in-law, bought all the honey that the people had and spent it all at once. More than a hundred taels.

Zheng Qiushuang also took precautions against Ke Muqing first, fearing that Ke Muqing would jump up when she told him how much money he had spent in the past few days. But Ke Muqing didn't care, and even praised his two sisters-in-law for buying the right thing. Osmanthus nectar is a rare thing, and it's a good thing. A jar of ten taels of silver is a real price.

After Ke Muqing praised Zheng Qiu Shuang, she felt relieved and started to laugh.

"Mom, what are you cooking? We can smell it from all the way." Zhu Er put his arm on Pei San's shoulder and walked towards here. A few steps away, Zhu Er's loud voice started to speak.
