As soon as I was reborn, my fiancé came to propose marriage!
Chapter 244 Everyone went home to discuss whether to go or not
Thinking of this, Gao Yingming finally felt relieved.
"The young lady and my cousin are covered in wounds, not even a single healthy spot exists, but their lives are not in danger..."
Lin Ye frowned when he said this. The scene was so horrifying that both of them were almost bitten into bloody corpses!
It is true that there is no threat to one's life, that's because those things are not toxic at all.
But after the wounds on their bodies scab over, no one knows what they will look like as ghosts. It's scary just looking at it.
Gao Yingming waved his hand to show that he understood. "Just get some food and ask the doctor to prescribe some medicine for them. When we go to find the granary, I will discuss with the village chief and ask him to send two people to guard the house to prevent them from causing trouble again."
"Yes."
Lin Ye received the order and went directly to the doctor's house with food.
Gao Yingming was the only one left in the room, sitting there with a dull look in his eyes, and no one knew what he was thinking.
.........
The village chief's house.
The village chief gathered all the able-bodied men of appropriate age and discussed in the yard what they had already discussed.
As soon as he finished speaking, the yard became noisy and bustling like a market.
The village chief shouted, "I have said everything I need to say. You can go home and discuss the rest with your families. This operation is indeed dangerous. After all, we don't know what the world outside is like."
"Master Gao gave us a general idea. The roads are now full of refugees and displaced persons. So not only do you have to deal with them, but you also have to figure out how to transport the food back. This is a huge problem."
"But as I just said, anyone who goes there can get a separate portion of the food that the village gets. You know, even if Master Gao promised to give us some food..."
The village chief did not tell the villagers how many there were exactly, just to prevent them from speculating. A normal person would think that since they were transporting food for others, there must not be too much.
If the village chief said it was 1/3, the whole village would be in an uproar. Who would be willing to go?
Everyone wants to sit back and reap the benefits in the village!
In that case, they won’t even get that 1/3.
If you want something, you have to pay a price, right?
"Let me make it clear first, the village will not take out the food that is distributed unless it is absolutely necessary, which means that the food will not be distributed to every household."
"But if you are participating in this operation, you will definitely get food for your family, and I promise that there will be no shortage!"
"You two should go back and discuss this matter carefully. We should set out tonight without delay and take action at night."
The village chief didn't want to keep them after he finished speaking. He was too lazy to listen to their grumbling in the yard. He was old now and his head hurt whenever he heard these things.
He asked Chen Jixiang to see the guests off and let them go home to discuss the matter themselves.
As expected, as soon as the news came out, the whole village was in an uproar.
There was no one even to fetch water, and everyone stayed at home discussing whether they should go or not.
They didn't even close the door, but dragged their son to the next door to ask others what they thought.
"What's wrong? Are you going home?"
"I don't want him to go. It's not like we don't have food at home right now. It's a mess out there. What if something happens to my son out there?"
"That's true, but the food will eventually run out. There are more than a dozen people in this family, and every day when they wake up, they open their mouths for food. If they don't go there, how will they survive in the future?"
"Why don't we go ask Lao Liu's family and see if they'll go."
"Hey, this method works, let's go ask a few more!"
The old women pulled each other and went to the third house to question and take it away, leaving the young and strong men in the house looking at each other and shaking their heads helplessly.
The same thing happened in the Chen family. After Chen Ping came back, he told Zheng about what happened, but Zheng didn't say anything for a long time.
She looked up and carefully asked Chen Ping's opinion, "What do you think? There is enough food at home. If you really don't have enough, mother can help you a little."
"Mom, the third brother and I have made up our minds. Let's both go!"
"Whatever you can earn is good. From what the village chief said, the food we will get won't be less. No one would complain about having too much food, right?"
"Besides, the third brother and I both have some skills. Although my skills are not as good as the third brother's, at least I have made some progress. Don't worry."
Zheng knew that she couldn't stop him. The two brothers had their own ideas. She could only hold the second brother's shoulders and look her son over and over again.
Reluctantly, he said, "Okay, you are all grown up now, you can make your own decisions."
"Mother only told me one thing, food is not as important as people. If something goes wrong on the way, it doesn't matter if the food is lost. Just rush back as fast as you can, understand?"
"Hey!"
Chen Ping's voice was choked with sobs. He wiped his face twice, turned around and went back to the house to pack his things.
The main reason is that he doesn’t want his mother to see him crying, it’s too embarrassing!
After Zheng finished explaining, she hurried to Chen's house. They were all troublesome things. She was already old, but she still had to worry about the two brothers.
Although I was complaining in my heart, my worries did not diminish in the slightest. I had to go and report to the third brother.
When Chen Ping returned to the house, he saw Xiao Zheng helping him pack his things. He walked up to her reluctantly, hugged her from behind, rested his chin on her shoulder, and spoke softly.
"Don't worry, both of us brothers will go, at least we can take care of you."
"If nothing else, I just want you and your mother to have enough food and drink."
Little Zheng's voice was filled with tears. "In fact, there is enough food in the cellar. You don't need to take this risk."
Chen Ping shook his head. "It's enough now, but what about in the future?"
"So many people in the village are going. If everyone goes and shares the food, then when we are short of food in the future, we can't just rob or steal from others, right?"
"I don't want you and your daughter to live like this. I'm the man of the family, so I should be the one to support the family."
"cousin......"
As soon as Xiao Zheng finished speaking, tears started falling down her face.
This was the first time she called Chen Ping cousin after getting married.
Chen Ping knew that she was reluctant to leave, so he turned her around and hugged her tightly, "Don't be afraid, for you and your daughter I will definitely come back safely."
"What's more, there is the third brother! He is so skilled in martial arts, can he leave his second brother alone and come back?"
Chen Ping was joking in a light-hearted tone, causing Xiao Zheng to punch him hard on the chest.
Just now, Wang was arguing with Chen Kang. Wang wanted him to go and earn some food, and even Wang Xiuchun wanted him to go!
