The end of the world: tender beef five groups love three-year-old fat girl

Chapter 5: Ancient Escape 5: Village Chief Zhao Guangde

It was Qi Xuyao's first time to drive a horse-drawn carriage, and it felt quite new. Wang Hao, who was sitting next to him, also felt a little itchy.

"Dad Yao, where are we going now?" the baby popped his head out of the car and asked curiously.

"Well...let's go buy some clothes at the ready-made clothing store. We only have one set of clothes that we can wear right now, so we need to buy some more ordinary and comfortable clothes to change into."

"Then Nian Nian wants one too. This clothes is uncomfortable." The baby pouted and rolled up his sleeves in grievance.

Qi Xuyao ​​and Wang Hao tilted their heads and saw that the baby's delicate skin had been rubbed red.

This made them very sad.

Wang Hao immediately said, "Don't be afraid, fat girl. This clothing store may not have our sizes. We will go buy some cloth later. When we get back, your father will make clothes and shoes for you. I guarantee they will be comfortable to wear!"

"Okay!"

When they arrived at the clothing store, Wang Hao went in alone.

It wasn't long before more than twenty pieces of clothing of various sizes were brought out. They were all ordinary shorts, not robes.

Then they went to the cloth shop.

When I entered the cloth shop, there was only a shopkeeper and a clerk inside.

Seeing that they were wearing tattered clothes, the shopkeeper lowered his head again after just raising it.

The guy came over.

He smiled and said, "Are you guys here to buy some cloth? Our Li's Cloth Shop has the most cloth in the entire Xifeng City."

"What's the price?" Wang Hao asked.

The clerk quoted the price: "Coarse linen is 300 wen per piece, coarse cotton is 440 wen per piece, raw silk is 470 wen, and silk is 1400 wen per piece. The more expensive ones are silk, which is 1900 wen per piece, and cotton gauze is 2600 wen per piece."

Originally, the waiter was only going to quote the price for coarse linen, after all, what the two adults and one child were wearing were too worn out.

However, he was careful and discovered that although these three people were dressed in rags, they did not look like ordinary people.

The two adults had an aura that was no less impressive than those masters he had met before, and the chubby little girl had skin that was more delicate than the best silk in their store.

So he subconsciously quoted the price of the high-quality fabrics.

Qi Xuyao ​​was not as good as Wang Hao at making clothes, so he just held his daughter and stood aside without saying anything.

Wang Hao calculated in his mind that one piece of cloth could make about six sets of clothes for adults.

A body type like his can only do four sets.

This time, it took at least a year to escape famine from Western Jin to Dongli.

I have to make a few more clothes and also make shoes with thousand-layer soles for the fat girl.

So he said to his servant, "Give me five rolls of raw silk and four rolls of cotton gauze."

Although he was fleeing famine, Wang Hao's goal was to make himself as comfortable as possible.

Buy more, and besides making clothes, the remaining ones may be used someday.

The best cotton silk must be used to make clothes and shoes for the fat girl.

The shopkeeper didn't expect that they could buy so many pieces of cloth at one time.

You have to know that this is a year of famine. There is no food, so how can we have money to buy cloth and make clothes?

Their cloth shop just opened this one these two days.

All this cloth cost less than thirteen taels of silver.

Wang Hao hugged the cloth and stuffed it into the carriage. Fortunately, the carriage was big, otherwise it would not have been able to fit everyone in.

As soon as the carriage drove out of the cloth shop's range, the fifth thought was directly put into the space.

After buying the cloth, the three of them took a carriage to buy shoes.

That's a lot of shoes to buy. Even if you have a carriage, you'll have to walk a lot in the future.

A total of 200 pairs of straw sandals were purchased according to different sizes, clearing out the store's inventory.

I also bought thirty pairs of cotton shoes.

The city gates of Xifeng City are closed at the hour of You, which is five o'clock.

Seeing that it was getting late, they didn't delay any longer.

Driving the empty carriage towards the city gate.

Before he got there, he saw a long line in front of the city gate. A middle-aged man who looked even more wealthy than Wang Hao and a young man with a moustache were staring at the passing people and carriages.

There were also some people dressed as servants and guards who were searching each carriage, but the soldiers guarding the city turned a blind eye to it.

Qi Xuyao ​​immediately checked from a distance with his detection sunglasses, then drove the carriage into an alley.

"What's wrong?" Wang Hao looked at him puzzled.

Qi Xuyao ​​curled his lips and said, "Boss Cao's house has been robbed and they are checking at the door."

"This is easy. Nian Nian can put dad and the carriage into the space, and then use dad Ritian's invisibility cloak to get out." The baby shook his head proudly.

Qi Xuyao ​​hugged her and kissed her baby face.

"My daughter is smart, but you just need to send your father and the carriage inside. The invisibility cloak is big enough, so I will feel more at ease if I carry you out."

The fifth thought tilted his head and thought for a while, then nodded: "Okay."

"Okay, then I won't hold you back. I'll just go in and take a rest." Wang Hao stretched.

After not sleeping for a whole day and night, he would have almost given up if his daughter hadn't restored their strength in the morning.

The fifth thought took him and the carriage into the space.

Qi Xuyao ​​held her in his arms, covered himself with his invisible cloak, and disappeared into the alley.

In this way, the father and daughter swaggered out of Xifeng City after passing through layers of inspection.

The baby even made a face when he passed by Boss Cao.

Qi Xuyao ​​carried his daughter in his arms and showed up outside a grove two miles outside Xifeng City.

Then he took out a horse from the space and rode the horse quickly towards home.

When the horse accelerates, it becomes uncomfortable to sit on and your butt shakes a bit.

But the fifth thought cannot enter the space alone, because the space is bound to her, and others have to be beside her to enter and exit.

Only she herself would come out from the same place every time she went in, so she could only ride back home on horseback.

Fortunately, if you don’t pass through Yong’an Town, the straight-line distance between Xifeng City and Yuhe Village can be reached in half an hour on horseback.

By the time they got home, it was already dark.

I went out early and came back late today, but I didn't even meet a single villager.

Wu Ce brought the food that had been prepared long ago to the table, and everyone started eating with big mouthfuls.

Seeing his daughter burying her face in the bowl, Xie Tianjiao said, "After dinner, you can take a rest. Then Ritian will make clothes quickly. Blind will help Alin collect food and make jerky."

"Ace, let's go to the village chief's house."

"it is good."

There are four surnames in Yuhe Village, namely Zhao, Sun, Wang and Liu.

It is rare for people in the village to marry outside.

Among them, the Zhao family is the largest family in Yuhe Village.

The village chief Zhao Guangde was the current patriarch of the Zhao family. He married Sun and had three sons and two daughters.

The eldest son, Zhao Youliang, married Wang and had two sons and one daughter.

The second son, Zhao Youjun, was conscripted into the army in his early years and died on the battlefield, leaving behind his wife Liu and an infant daughter, Zhao Daya.

The youngest son, Zhao Youcai, married Xiao Sun, Sun's cousin, and had three sons and one daughter.

Zhao Guangde went to school for two years when he was young and was considered the most educated person in Yuhe Village.

He is the man with the final say in the village and the villagers have great faith in him.

What Wu Ce and Jie Tianjiao discussed was to persuade Zhao Guangde to flee the famine with them, so that they could take care of each other.

If the other party is really unwilling, then they can only settle for the second best and go as a family first to see if they can join some better fleeing groups on the way.

Taking advantage of the night, the two knocked on the Zhao family's gate.
