"We are going to the north to help with disaster relief. The snow there is heavy and many people have been displaced. The emperor ordered us to go to the disaster relief, but because we don't have any official positions, we are worried that the refugees and local officials will not listen to us. So he prepared to seal us on the road." Yao Shu didn't hide anything and told the tough man everything.

She believed that the man in front of her was not a bad person, and the people in the village would not live such a leisurely and happy life.

If the expressions on an adult's face can be faked, how can a two or three-year-old child fake it?

Seeing their smiles while playing and the fact that each child was wearing clean and tidy clothes, everyone must have had a very happy time in the village.

Thinking of this, Yao Shu couldn't help but sigh.

"It's really strange that you are ordered to go to disaster relief even though you don't hold any official position. If what you said is true, you must have been framed, so you have fallen to this point." The sturdy man could see the reason at a glance.

Yao Shu guessed that the sturdy man must have been an official before, so he was so familiar with the truth. As for why he didn't recognize the token, he probably didn't dare to confirm it, so he found other people to help determine his identity.

Thinking of this, Yao Shu spoke again: "We don't know much about the disputes in the court. But we were also refugees before. Now, when we hear that civilians in other areas are suffering from disasters, we naturally want to help. Even if we don't Even if the Emperor gives the order, we will go there voluntarily. There are many shop owners behind us, and they should arrive soon. They all want to go to the north to provide relief, so they follow us. But after all, we have the Emperor's personal order. Yes, if they follow us directly, there might be something wrong."

By now, the sturdy man could completely confirm that they were out-and-out good people.

"So that's it, you guys are also interested. After hearing what you said, I also want to go to the north to provide relief, but I'm currently busy with things in the village and I really can't get away. Let's do this, I'll let the people in the village know for a while I brought you something, although we can’t see it, but my intention is at least there.”

After speaking, he left in a hurry.

Seeing this appearance, Yao Shu couldn't help laughing, and said helplessly: "Brother, please untie the ropes on us first."

Hearing this, he immediately reacted.

After helping them untie the rope, the sturdy man immediately told other people in the village about them.

Seeing them hurriedly starting to pack the food, Yao Shu couldn't help but sigh.

Even though he was in trouble himself, he never forgot to give a little help to other people who were suffering.

That night, Yao Shu felt that she slept very soundly.

When I woke up early the next day, I saw that work had begun in the stockade.

It is said to be a village, but its layout and area are like a village.

Yao Shu really felt that living here would be much happier. Looking at the smiles on their faces, she couldn't help but laugh softly.

Seeing her so relaxed, Shen Nanshan couldn't help but sigh: "I haven't seen you smile so happily in a long time."

"I haven't seen so many people laughing so happily together in a long time. If we get old in the future and need a place to retire, this village is probably the best place. I just don't know if this eldest brother will still be there by then. They won't take me in." Yao Shu said and turned to look at the tall man walking slowly to the other side.

"What are you talking about? As long as you are upright and kind people, you will always be welcome in the village. But if you become someone who does all kinds of evil in the future, I will not let you go."

The tall man's words made the Shen family laugh, and Shen Fugui couldn't help but nodded: "If I enter the officialdom in the future, I will naturally become a good official dedicated to serving the people."

Shen Qiu also patted his shoulder: "Brother, despite his young age, he has great ambitions."

After having fun, Yao Shu decided to discuss business matters.

Her serious expression returned to her face, and she asked: "Brother, the official is behind us, and the official who conferred the title on us is also a good official. If there are any injustices in your village, you might as well tell him. I will also be here with you until everything is resolved."

Yao Shu knew that if the village continued like this, it would naturally not work.

As time goes by, if someone with intentions discovers it, they may destroy the village to gain an opportunity for themselves to make meritorious deeds.

At that time, those people will not care about whether the village is good or bad, nor will they care about what they think.

Yao Shu thought that while they happened to be passing by here today, she might as well help them clear their grievances.

Unexpectedly, when Yao Shu said these words, the face of the sturdy man was full of resistance.

"Brother, please don't worry. We have been together for two days, don't you still know who we are? I can guarantee with my life that the person who appoints us an official is an out-and-out good official. If you have any You can tell him everything you have to do, or if you are dissatisfied with the officials."

Hearing this, the sturdy man had a bitter expression on his face, as if he was remembering an unbearable experience.

He was silent for a long time, which even made Yao Shu think that he had lost the ability to speak.

Finally, he spoke silently: "No need. The reason why everyone gathered in the village is to avoid the constraints of the officials. Perhaps as you said, some officials are really good officials. But we are a village after all, and we cannot use everyone’s names to bet on a person’s quality.”

After saying that, he turned around and continued to collect the food.

Shen Nanshan wanted to continue to persuade him, but Yao Shu held him back.

Yao Shu shook her head and signaled him not to continue walking forward.

Seeing the busy figures of the people in the village, Yao Shu decided to start with other people.

She took two steps and saw an old man sitting on the steps resting at a corner.

The old man looks quite old. His hair is gray and his whole body is thin and rickety.

However, his eyes were particularly alert, and he kept watching Yao Shu walking up to him.

"Old man, why are you sunbathing here alone?"

Sitting next to the old man, Yao Shu felt the morning light beginning to envelope her whole body, and she unconsciously felt a little reserved.

The old man sighed helplessly and said softly: "I am old, I can only go so far."
