Chapter 47 Going to Qingzhou 2 updates

"Dad, then you decided... to leave with him?"

"Let's go to Qingzhou City again."

Having made the decision, Village Chief Xu did not hesitate. Later in the evening, he walked to the foot of the mountain and knocked on the door of the Gu family's courtyard. At that time, Xu Huaiyi's family was sitting in the courtyard enjoying the cool breeze and drinking tea. They had eaten too much for dinner, and for a while I won't be able to sleep for a while.

Hearing the commotion, Xu Huaiyi walked out and greeted warmly, "Uncle Village Chief? Why are you here? Come in and sit down..."

Village Chief Xu stood outside the door and waved his hand, "No, I'll just say a few words and leave."

"Is something wrong? You said..."

"I want to visit Qingzhou City again. If you are free, let's go together."

Xu Huaiyi thought for a while and then nodded in agreement, "Okay, Uncle Liu happened to tell me that the carriage is ready. If we go to Qingzhou, I can also try to see if it is comfortable to sit in it."

"Then go tomorrow morning?"

"It's up to you..."

Village Chief Xu hesitated for a moment and then explained with a wry smile, "Huaiyi, don't blame my uncle for having too many things to do. He is old and doesn't have the courage and courage of you young people. No matter what he does, he just wants to beg for help." Sure, after all, escaping from famine will lead to a life of near death. Who wants to take that road unless it is a last resort? There are dozens of people in the Xu family. I have to give them an explanation and make them convinced. Otherwise, if they leave reluctantly, even if they are forced to When you are on the road, if your mind is not aligned, it is easy to cause trouble."

Xu Huaiyi nodded with understanding on his face, "Uncle Village Chief, I understand that you are doing the right thing in your position and in your political plans."

When Village Chief Xu heard this, Lao Huai was immediately relieved.

After he turned around and left, Xu Huaiyi went back to drink tea calmly. Gu Huanxi looked at his face, narrowed his eyes and asked, "What did Village Chief Xu tell you?"

Xu Huaiyi said casually, "Let me accompany him to Qingzhou tomorrow."

Gu Huanxi couldn't help but frown, "You agreed?"

Xu Huaiyi nodded and explained subconsciously, "He has come to visit me. I can't help but I'm fine. I just want to go there. I haven't been there before and I want to see what Qingzhou City is like... "

The more he spoke, the more guilty he became. He carefully glanced at his wife's face and his voice became softer and softer. "Well, let's go early and try to come back on the same day. We can also try out our new taxi on the way. How is the comfort?”

Gu Huanxi looked at him expressionlessly, "You can guess what's going on in Qingzhou right now with your heels, why do you need to go out of your way to take a look? Are you so free?"

Xu Huaiyi's spine suddenly went cold, "Daughter-in-law, I..."

Gu Huanxi frowned, "You still want to quibble?"

Xu Huaiyi shook his head hurriedly and said with a desire to survive, "Daughter-in-law, I was wrong. I shouldn't have meddleed in their own business. I shouldn't have agreed to accompany them to their troubles. If they don't give up, then they can go find out on their own. Ask me to go into the water, I should have firmly refused just now, how can I let them take advantage of women's kindness..."

Gu Huanxi said angrily, "Since you understand everything, why do you..."

I just don’t have a long memory.

Xu Huaiyi withered his head and allowed his wife to scold her, and finally said in a flattering manner, "Don't worry, wife, I have a bottom line and will not continue to condone their demands."

Gu Huanxi snorted. If he had no bottom line, she would have kicked him out of the house.

The next day, before dawn, Xu Huaiyi left.

There were quite a few people going to Qingzhou with them. In addition to village chief Xu and his son, Uncle Gao Er, Uncle Liu, Xu Maoyuan, and Meng Erzhu, they all got on the mule cart.

It was the first time to see such a carriage, and several people were very surprised.

You can sit on it during the day, and pull out the boards and connect them at night. It becomes a bed. Three or four people can sleep on it. There is storage space under the seat, which is convenient for storing food and other things. There is a circle of cabinets on the top. Bedding and clothing can be placed. There are some hooks and partitions around it, and some commonly used things can also be placed.

In addition, there is a small table. The best thing is that the small table can be buckled together with the bottom of the carriage. This way, when running, you can put some food and drink on the table without worrying about it falling over.

Along the way, they experienced firsthand the benefits of using this carriage.

It's so comfortable to sit on.

Although it is still bumpy, sitting inside, you can lean on it and lie down. It is protected from the wind and rain. With the small windows open, you can eat and drink while enjoying the scenery on both sides.

If you were to escape like this, it wouldn't be considered a punishment.

Several people were thinking about their own things, and when they approached Qingzhou, they couldn't think about anything else.

On the road, there were gradually more and more people, wearing rags and rags, bringing their families with them, carrying pots and pans, and the better ones had a cart with a bunch of miscellaneous things on it.

These people had almost the same expression, their eyes were dull, their steps were feeble, but they were numb and stubborn and refused to stop, walking mechanically in one direction.

"Dad, these people... are all going to Qingzhou?" Xu Changsong looked outside, his face a little pale, "Looking at their clothes, they don't look like the people nearby."

Village Chief Xu frowned and said nothing.

Uncle Gao said solemnly, "They are refugees, or they came from far away."

If they were nearby, they wouldn't be in such miserable condition. Their shoes were worn out and their hair was knotted. It looked like they had been walking for many days.

Xu Changsong murmured in panic, "Refugees? Are there refugees at this time? Then let's..."

Village Chief Xu took over, "Let's take another look. If something doesn't look right, we'll turn back and stop going to Qingzhou."

Others didn't object after hearing this.

Xu Huaiyi was driving outside and was deeply moved when he saw this scene.

Meng Erzhu sat on the edge and spoke to him in a low voice, "Huaiyi, if we go to escape from famine, wouldn't it be like this? We are unkempt and look like no one..."

Xu Huaiyi said calmly, "You look good if you stay at home, but your life is gone. Who can I show you when you dress up and bury me decently?"

Meng Erzhu choked.

Xu Huaiyi asked, "Your family doesn't want to leave?"

Meng Erzhu said with a look of embarrassment, "My father didn't say anything. My grandfather didn't want to leave. He said he was too old and was afraid that he wouldn't be able to survive on the road. He said that even if he died, he would have to die at home and not be a lonely ghost. "

In view of the past relationship between the original owner and him, Xu Huaiyi reminded, "Then you have to think about how to survive if you stay. Food shortage is only one of them. The real crisis is when people become hungry and panic, and they lose their humanity. "It's easy to become a robber or a bandit, but it's more serious to become a beast, and beasts can eat people."

Meng Erzhu was so frightened that he trembled. When he looked at the refugees on the road, his eyes could not help but be a little wary.

At this time, someone came around, pleading, "Okay, uncle, give me someone who stutters..."

Seeing this, other people followed the trend and came here, while others stopped and watched.

Xu Huaiyi had to stop.
