A strong man named Dazhu walked out and looked at Wu Qingsong, "I am Yu Dazhuang, the village chief of Shanao Village, who is this gentleman?"

"My name is Wu Qingsong, there is war outside, there is no place to live anywhere, I was separated from my son-in-law when I escaped, now it is just me and my girl, we want to find a village to settle down, you are relatively remote here, I want to come to a lot safer. "The place is poor, and I don't want to fight a war.

Yu Dazhu glanced at the carriage, "You don't look like you're fleeing!"

"Don't hide it from the village chief, my son-in-law and the girl have some savings, and my girl is pregnant, so she can't have children, so she can only buy a carriage to use, otherwise, my girl doesn't know how to come here. Wu Qingsong took out five silver dollars and handed them out, and said with a wry smile: "Don't worry, the village chief is just settling down, and the village chief can just set aside a piece of land for me; ”

Yu Dazhu didn't answer, "It's nothing for you to settle down, but you didn't cause any trouble outside, right? ”

"No, absolutely not, we are all honest people, we just want to find a place to settle down and live well. ”

Yu Dazhu looked at the carriage suspiciously, hesitated again and again, and the eldest lady next to him looked at Wu Qingsong and was a little soft-hearted, "Dazhu! Although people are from outside, it is really not easy to get to our area; Wouldn't it be better for someone to grow food? What are you hesitating about? ”

Yu Dazhu's daughter-in-law smiled at Wu Qingsong, and also persuaded, "If you are in charge, let them settle down; I don't think this old man is a bad person, our village has a small population, and it would be good if people were willing to settle in this poor and remote place, and it would also add popularity to our village. ”

Yu Dazhu hesitated for a while, then took five silver dollars, "This is the money you paid to buy the land, let's talk in the first house." ”

"Thank you. Wu Qingsong gestured at the two women, startling the two of them, but he became more and more kind to Wu Qingsong.

Wu Qingsong turned around and helped Nian Qingqing out of the car, "This is my girl, called Nian Qingqing." ”

"The village chief and the two ladies are good. Young Qing smiled and nodded in greeting.

Yu Dazhu waved his hand, "Seeing that you are not very old, you will be from the same village in the future, just call me uncle." ”

"Okay, Uncle Yu, Aunt Yu, and this lady doesn't know what to call it?" said to them.

The smiling appearance made the lady who led the way happy, "Good girl, she is so handsome, she is so good-looking, she is so good-looking, and she is as good-looking as those girls in the base area behind, and many of them are also white and tender." ”

Young Qing narrowed his eyes, "Base?"

"Yes! A few kilometers behind the mountain is the party's base area, and they are all good people who fight devils; they don't take up a stitch or a thread for our common people, and they often come to farm with us to keep in touch with each other, and sometimes they will rehearse what things for us to see, oh, by the way, it's called a show. ”

Wu Qingsong smiled and nodded, "That's pretty good." ”

"Alright, the house said go. Yu Dazhu said to his daughter-in-law: "Go and pour three bowls of water for the guests to drink." ”

Yu Dazhu's daughter-in-law nodded in response, "Okay." ”

When I entered the cave, the temperature was higher than the outside, and I felt very comfortable when I walked in.

Yu Dazhu beckoned to sit down, and watched them sit down before taking out a notebook hanging on the wall and writing and drawing on it, "Your name has been registered, how old are you?"

"I was forty-three years old and my girl was eighteen. Wu Qingsong showed their household registration information to Yu Dazhu.

"Hmm. Yu Dazhu couldn't understand it, so he filled in the simple information to settle down, and asked, "What land do you want to divide?"

Wu Qingsong said: "We're not familiar with this place, let's wait until we see it, right?"

"Yes. Yu Dazhu put the notebook and put five silver dollars on the table, "I won't be greedy for these silver dollars, you will live in the village in the future, and these silver dollars will be distributed to the people in the village, which can be regarded as a love for you." ”

"Thank you to the village chief, or you are thoughtful. ”

Yu Dazhu shook his head, "You don't need to be called by the village chief and the village chief, since you will be from the same village in the future, that is your own family; ”

"That's embarrassing. ”

"Call me closer like this, the people in the village call me Dazhu, what does Brother Wu think?" asked Yu Dazhu.

Wu Qingsong was also not easy to hold, "Okay, then I will follow the people in the village in the future, Dazhu." ”

"Alas, that's it, there are twenty families in our village, and the population is not large, but there are many mountains, but the food does not grow well, and we can barely make ends meet. Yu Dazhu briefly explained the situation in Shanao Village, "Brother Wu, I want to ask you something." ”

Wu Qingsong nodded, "You ask, I must know everything and say everything." ”

Yu Dazhu asked, "Is it really chaotic outside now? You have to be honest, there are still people outside in our village, and I don't know what is going on now." ”

"It's chaotic, it's very chaotic, and it's a little calmer in Yan'an, there are wars everywhere, everyone is in danger, and people fleeing are everywhere. Wu Qingsong sighed, "Originally, we were from Linjiang, and we had been fleeing to the north, but we couldn't stay all the time, and we were fighting everywhere, so we didn't feel comfortable settling down! Later, when we heard on the train that Yan'an was quite calm, we came directly; when we arrived in Yan'an, we passed through many towns, where people were more xenophobic, and we didn't dare to settle down." ”

"I discussed it with the girl, and I decided to settle down in the country, where I lived comfortably, without the twists and turns of the town, and it was good to be self-sufficient. When my son-in-law comes to me, our family will be reunited. ”

Yu Dazhu understood, "Now this world is messy, I didn't expect that our poor country is safer." ”

"Who's to say it isn't. ”

The more the two talked, Wu Qingsong was not stingy with the news outside, which made Yu Dazhu deeply realize that there was chaos outside, he couldn't go out, and he was likely to die if he went out.

After talking for a while, the village chief invited them to live in his house first, and then move after they found a good place to build a cave.

Wu Qingsong also had a plan, and thanked him with a smile.

The folk customs here are simple, Wu Qingsong and Nian Qingqing quickly integrated into the mountain col village under the leadership of Dazhu and Yu Dazhu's daughter-in-law, everyone is a little ignorant in their thinking, but they are also kind; at least they have never seen the death of a daughter after giving birth, even if they are a little patriarchal, but it is not too serious.
