After crossing, I surrounded the capital from the countryside

When Wang Xiaofang heard him say that his father was Zhang Daniu, she remembered him instantly.

"Oh, it's you, Wang Dahu! Nephew!" Wang Xiaofang clapped her hands, stepped forward to take a closer look, then turned to Li Daniu and said, "Oh, look at my brain, yes, it's my nephew!"

Li Daniu let down his guard when he saw the two recognized each other. After all, the rule of Anping Village is that one cannot easily enter the village without a guarantor.

Seeing that Li Daniu stopped talking, Wang Xiaofang knew that he agreed to let them enter the village, so she hurriedly greeted them.

"Come in, come in!"

Wang Dahu turned and looked at Shen Qingqing's family: "Let's go."

Everyone nodded and followed Wang Dahu into Anping Village.

Along the way, Wang Xiaofang learned what happened in Wang Dahu's family, listened to Wang Dahu's story about what he encountered along the way, and also learned that Shen Qingqing's family were also refugees and hoped to settle down in Anping Village.

In response to this, Wang Xiaofang said that it would be no problem for Wang Dahu to settle down, but if Shen Qingqing's family wanted to settle down, they might have to ask the village chief for permission.

After saying that, Wang Xiaofang glanced at Shen Qingqing with an inexplicable look on her face, but she was very careful, so that it looked like an unintentional glance and was not noticed by anyone.

After hearing what Wang Xiaofang said, Wang Dahu looked at Shen Qingqing's family with some apology. He felt a little guilty because he had promised to do something but failed to do it.

Seeing this, Shen Qingsong patted Wang Dahu on the back and comforted him: "It's okay, you are very good to bring us here, and you have tried your best. Leave the rest to us."

"Besides, what if the village chief agrees in a while?"

Wang Dahu didn't say anything, just nodded.

In fact, the Shen family had already anticipated the current situation. After all, with refugees everywhere, it was difficult for everyone, and they had nothing to do with Wang Xiaofang, so they couldn't force others to help them for no reason.

So after everyone put their luggage at Wang Xiaofang's house, they followed Wang Xiaofang to the village chief's house.

When they arrived, the village chief was at home.

After Shen Lingyun, as the head of the family, expressed his wish to settle down in Anping Village, the village chief was silent for a while. His lowered eyes also flashed with an obscure meaning.

Looking at the silent village chief, no one spoke to disturb his thoughts, and the room was quiet for a while.

The village chief thought for a moment, stroked his gray beard and looked at the few people. At this time, Wang Dahu had an idea and slowly told the village chief about the Shen family's brave rescue of Liu Wenshan and other two people.

Hearing about this, the village chief's eyes moved slightly as he looked at Shen Qingqing and her group. He also saw that these people were well-dressed and upright, so he thought that they would not be evil people.

His eyes swept over everyone, and finally lingered on Shen Qingqing for a few seconds.

Then, considering that no strangers had settled in Anping Village for a long time, he was still a little hesitant.

At this time, Shen Qingyun, who still looked weak, said, "Village Chief, our family only needs a place to stay. We can also build a house on the edge of the village. Do you think this is okay?"

The village chief thought carefully for a moment after hearing this, and finally nodded and said, "Okay, then you can live in the empty house to the west until you finish building your house. Although it's a bit shabby, it can still be lived in after some cleaning."

"Thank you, Grandpa Village Chief!" Shen Qingqing thanked him excitedly when she heard that the village chief agreed to let them settle here.

The village chief then lowered his head and looked at her carefully. She looked about five or six years old, with soft black hair, bright doe eyes that were filled with smiles, round face that was flushed with excitement, fair skin, a rosy and cute little mouth, and a very sweet smile.

The village chief looked at this lovely, lovable little girl and asked softly, "What's your name?"

"Grandpa Village Chief, my name is Xu Qingqing, you can just call me Qingqing! Thank you for agreeing to let us stay in Anping Village!" Shen Qingqing said as she bowed deeply to the kind-looking village chief.

The three little rascals and Yan Yan behind him also bowed deeply.

The village chief looked at the children in front of him and laughed out loud, his eyes full of smiles and satisfaction: "Good children, good children!"

As he said this, he walked into the room, took out some fruits and handed them to the children.

Shen Qingqing first looked at Shen Lingyun, and only took the apple when she saw them nod. She then took a few children to thank the village chief sweetly.

When the few people walked out of the village chief's house, the night of Anping Village had quietly arrived, and the village was filled with faint candlelight.

The villagers sat down in their courtyards, drinking tea and chatting, admiring the starry sky. Occasionally, a melodious tune played by leaves could be heard, immersing the whole village in tranquility.

At this time in Anping Village, time seems to become slow and tolerant. People can put aside their busy lives and enjoy the pure tranquility and beauty.
