Chapter 405: For the Time Being

Although Zhang Xing's words were said to Ye Changyue, they were for Ye Hexiang.

Uncle Ye's family has a deep understanding of the war disaster. They originally had complaints - they obviously lived well in the city, but they dragged their families to the mountains. It's really a donkey kick in the head.

But as soon as Zhang Xing said this, they didn't complain at all. Drill deep into the mountains, still have food and drink, stay in the city, maybe even your life will not be guaranteed.

The Liu Mansion next door to the Wei family is one of Ye Hexiang's frequent visits, and the old lady of his family is also from the market, so she can talk to Ye Hexiang very well.

Sure enough, Ye Hexiang listened to Zhang Xing's words and asked, "Is it Master Liu's house next door?"

Zhang Xing nodded, "It's their house." ”

Ye Hexiang's face changed, "Then who else is in his family, and the patrol in the city doesn't care?"

"The war is tight, where is there anyone who cares about these things?" Zhang Xing said lightly.

"It's so chaotic in the city?" Ye Hexiang still didn't believe what he heard.

Uncle Ye sighed, "When King Fu's men and horses enter the city, no matter how chaotic it is, it will be still to come." Hexiang, we are already lucky to be able to come out alive, so don't complain about Xing'er and them. ”

Zhang Jinbao helped Ye Hexiang sit down, and said in a low voice: "Mother, when it's too peaceful outside, we'll go back, don't talk about it." ”

Ye Hexiang glared at Zhang Jinbao, "Don't go far for a while, just stay with us." ”

Zhang Jinbao sneered and glanced at the others.

He is the only man in this house, and the rest are either elders or older than him, and he has known Ye Hexiang for not a day or two, and he knows her temperament. There was only one Li Jinlian, about the same age as Zhang Jinbao, who was smiling with her mouth pursed.

Zhang Jinbao's face flushed.

His sister said that only women can live in this house, and the two uncles are not in good health so they take special care. He's a man, squeezing here, what's the matter?

"Mother, I'll go out and breathe! I'll come back. ”

As soon as Zhang Jinbao finished speaking, he left Ye Hexiang and ran out.

Zhang Xing looked around.

The empty room was very simple, but the stones were piled on all sides, with a thatched roof on top of it, and there were three rooms in all.

Sun Xin is cleaning up with his hands.

The mother-in-law began to set up a pot to cook, and tonight is going to make do with it all night.

Aunt Fu, Fu Xianglian, Yun Jinlan and a few others were sitting together and talking.

Li Youshi and Li Jinlian are also picking up.

Mother You hurriedly took over the work in Li You's hands, "How can I let you do it?" and urged Li Jinlian, "Miss Tang, help your mother to rest." ”

Li Jinlian said softly: "Mom, don't stop it, we are used to doing these things at home." "Her mother said that people can't forget their roots, and they can't really think that because they live in the Wei family now, they really think that they are young ladies from a daughter.

The house was quickly cleaned up, and two bunks were placed in the left and right wings, separated by bamboo curtains, and Uncle Ye's family lived on one side, and Uncle Fu and Uncle Fu and Fu Xianglian Wei Junbao on the other. The main house is the largest, and Ye Hexiang, Zhang, Xingyun, Jinlan, and Li Youshi live here. As for the other girls, they can only make do with the car or under the eaves all night, just like the previous nights.

Uncle Fu's Li Youshi and others have all endured hardships, and after coming in, they all smiled and said with a smile: "It's very clean, I can finally get some sleep." ”

Although Yun Jinlan is a daughter, he has also run with the horse gang in the past, and he does not dislike simplicity at all.

Although Ye Changyue disliked it, she didn't dare to say that she was going to be kicked out, maybe she wouldn't even be able to live in such a place.

As soon as Ye Hexiang came in, she frowned, covered her mouth and nose and said, "Where can people live here, it's not as good as the pigsty in our old house!"

For her meanness, no one else dared to speak. Zhang Xing said lightly: "If you dislike it, it's okay to live." ”

"Where to stay?" Ye Hexiang thought there were other places.

Zhang Xing pointed outside, "The ground is the pavement, the sky is the cover, you can choose anything." ”

Ye Hexiang snorted: "Dead girl, I really raised you so big for nothing! You actually let me sleep outside, can't you think of some other way? I see that the big house in the village is not bad, you don't know how to go to them? It's just a trivial matter to make some silver." ”

It's only been a few years since the days of relaxation, and it's not the same thing as money.

Zhang Xing had long been accustomed to Ye Hexiang's whiteness, and said lightly: "Not everything can be done with silver, and it is already very reluctant for people to let us stay." ”

Xu Wei knew that there was a lot of war outside, and the people in this small village were very xenophobic, if it weren't for the fact that there were many of them, all riding horses and carrying knives, maybe they wouldn't have been allowed to stay here at all.

What else did Ye Hexiang say, Zhang Xing didn't want to pay attention to it anymore, and after handing over her brother to Mother You, she went out with Xia Zhi.

Night had fallen, the surrounding mountains were majestic and silent, and the guards and servants had already lit fires.

When He An saw Zhang Xing coming out, he hurriedly came over and said in a low voice: "Madam, the second master went to the village with Steward Sun." ”

Zhang Xing turned her head to look at the path. There was a way to the village, and when they entered the village, several families in the village stood at the door. It wasn't like a welcome look.

Zhang Xing nodded, "You go and get busy, I'll go over and take a look." ”

He An smiled and said, "Madam, the little one is fine, let me go with you." ”

Zhang Xing knew that he was not at ease, she smiled and shook her head: "We won't go far, we'll be back soon." ”

He An watched Zhang Xing and the two walk away, and returned to sit down.

"Grandma, what are you doing here?" said Xie San, who was traveling with him.

He was a member of the Yun family's horse gang, and he didn't do anything by Zhang Xing's side, and called Zhang Xing "aunt and grandmother" with the others.

"Something's wrong. He An replied vaguely, he still couldn't let go of it in his heart. The people in this village are not easy to get close to.

It was completely dark, and Zhang Xing and the others had not come back yet.

He An stood up, "I'll go over and take a look, you guys pay attention." ”

He called Gu Yu and was about to go to find someone, Wei Min, Wu Zhangxing and others came back together, accompanied by the eldest son of the village chief's family.

Wei Minwu beckoned He An to come over and said to him: "This is Brother Hu Jinpeng Hu, he is very familiar with the neighborhood, tomorrow he will take a few of you around the neighborhood." ”

He Anzhong was surprised, when they entered the village, the two sons of the village chief looked at them as if they were looking at a group of strongmen, their eyes were vigilant and hostile, this was just two or three incense sticks, and their second master was called a brother and sister?

"Then dare to be kind, Brother Hu, I'll trouble you tomorrow. Although He An was surprised, his smile quickly hung all over his face.

Hu Jinpeng was burly, his face was dark, and he said with a smile: "Don't bother, don't bother, you have to make a house tomorrow, I know where there are good trees, I'll take you tomorrow." ”

After he finished speaking, he looked around again and asked, "Sister, what use do you still lack here?"

Zhang Xing smiled and said, "It's okay." As she spoke, she took the basket handed over by Xia Zhi and stuffed it into Hu Jinpeng's hand, "Brother Hu, you take this." ”

Hu Jinpeng's face turned red, and he hurriedly waved his hand.

Zhang Xing forced it into his hand, "It's just a small snack that the child eats, there is not much money, I made it myself." If the eldest brother doesn't accept it, he will definitely dislike my bad skills. ”

Hu Jinpeng had no choice but to accept it, "Sister, then I'll leave first, and I'll come to you early tomorrow morning." ”

Wei Min, Wu Zhangxing and others watched Hu Jinpeng walk away. Wei Minwu said with a smile: "You still have a way." ”

He and Sun Xin sat on half a pillar of incense at Hu Jinpeng's house, the money was perhaps, and the good things were said, but they still looked like they were not close. As soon as Zhang Xing came, she just had a few words with the women in this family, and people treated her as a sister.

Zhang Xing smiled, "What is my good way? ”

The villagers in this village are simple and rarely see outsiders. But it's not like you don't know anything. There is a war outside, and there are many more faces in the mountains, and there are all those who will take revenge and be abducted. Wei Minwu's posture when they entered the village was too big, and the people must be frightened, so they naturally had to take precautions.

She was originally from a poor family, and she used to make a living in the mountains, so she couldn't understand their suffering. It is easier for women to come forward than men to dispel their defenses, and when they talk about children with each other, they can quickly become confidants.

The night passed in the mountains.

Hu Jinpeng really came over early in the morning and took He An and others into the mountains to cut wood, while Sun Xin took a few people to start digging pits and boiling the pulp for building walls. The sun climbed up the mountainside, and the old village chief Hu Hu came over with five or six villagers. Zhang Xing hurriedly instructed the mother-in-law in charge of eating to add vegetables and rice.

After a busy day, the shelves of a large house were erected.

Sent away the old village chief's family.

Wei Minwu smiled and said, "In my opinion, let's live in this mountain in the future, how clean it is." ”

Zhang Xing smiled. Pure days are wanted by everyone, but where is it so easy to get?

After four or five busy days, a small yard was almost completed.

The war in Yuxian County has also come to fruition. Shen Qian took Heyang, and Xiao Fugui, who was besieging Huaiyang, was attacked by the enemy on his back and fled in embarrassment under the attack from both sides.

Yuxian Jin'an and Huaiyang were implicated in each other, Xiao Fugui's people were defeated in Huaiyang, and Yuxian Jin'an did not support it for long. Now, their base camp has retreated to ten miles away from Yuxian County.

Wei Minwu asked Zhang Xing: "I'll take a few people back to see, you stay here?"

They received information that although the crisis in Yuxian County had been temporarily lifted, things in the city had changed greatly due to the war. But what has become of it? You can only know by seeing it with your own eyes.

At this time, when I go back, it must be a mess.

But if you don't go back, you can't do it, Zhang remembers that the foundation is still there after all.

They have not been in touch with Zhao Zixing for many days.

Zhang Xing shook his head, "Wait a little longer." ”

She believes that Zhao Zixing will definitely have a way to tide over the difficulties.

At this time, it is not wise to go back to Yuxian. Xiao Fugui once entered the city, and in Yuxian City, has his people been cleaned up? No one dares to say this.

The dog jumped off the wall in a hurry and was bitten by a mad dog for no reason, which was uncomfortable enough.

"Okay, then wait two more days!" Wei Minwu stood up and said.

Two days passed quickly, and Wei Minwu left with He An. Zhang Xing called Sun Xin over, pointed to the small half-bag of rice on the ground and said, "Send it to the old village chief's house." ”

They are now very familiar with the people in the village, and Zhang Jinbao also followed Jin Peng into the mountains to hunt a wild duck, which made him very happy.

Better and more food, Zhang Xing has it, but it's too much. Half a bag of rice is enough for the old village chief's family to chew for several days.

They are still busy making houses. No way, there are too many people. However, practice makes perfect, and Sun Xin and their construction speed is much faster than before.

The days in the mountains passed quickly, and Wei Minwu asked He An to bring a letter.

Zhao Zixing has already been contacted. The Zhuangzi where he was located passed through several waves of soldiers, and several people were injured in the courtyard of the village, but the grain was well hidden, and no one found it.

Nowadays, there are rampant soldiers outside Yuxian County, although Zhao Zixing knows that Yuxian County has been relieved, but he does not dare to send people into the city. It wasn't until the Yuxian City Patrol went down to the neighborhood to sweep it that he dared to enter the city.

Yu County is already full of holes, and the alley where the Wei family is located used to be the most secluded place in Yu County, and the people living in it are either rich or expensive. But in this big war was burned to the point that it was completely unpresentable.

The Wei family was not exempt from difficulties, and everything that could be robbed was snatched away. Old man Yu, who was guarding the door, was broken and hid in the well. Fortunately, Wei Minwu went back in time, otherwise, a life would have been lost.

However, the Wei family's basement was unharmed.

Yuxian City has been relieved, and those who have gone out to take refuge are also coming back one after another. Outside the city, many people were homeless and stranded in the city. In short, Yuxian County is too chaotic today.

As for the rest, Shen Qian has already entered Huaiyang and lived in the former Huaiyang Palace.

Jin Yao, who was beside Shen Huaijin, came to Yuxian County and found Wei Minwu.

Wei Min Wuxin didn't explain why Jin Yao came?

In fact, needless to say, Zhang Xing knew what Jin Yao was here for?

It's nothing more than money and food.

But Zhang Xing doesn't plan to give it this time, at least in the near future.

These people's appetites are endless, and her food is not blown by the wind.

The current situation of Yu County is just usable.

Zhang Xing wrote a reply letter and handed it to He An, and said in a low voice: "Tell the second master, let Manager Zhao go back to Zhuangzi, and don't show up in Yuxian for the time being." ”

Her letter is vaguely written, mostly asking for peace, and the message is the most important. Wei Minwu is an understanding, he received it, and naturally knew what to do.

He An accepted the letter and replied cautiously: "Yes, don't worry, madam! ”

After sending He An away, Zhang Xing burned the letter in her hand to ashes, and she stood up.

In the yard, Zhang Jinbao was playing with the little brother, and he tied the wild duck he hunted with a rope to the little brother. The little brother screamed with joy. Li Youshi took Li Jinlian to sit on the stone bench in the courtyard, doing needlework while smiling and watching the little brother play.

The sun had already set on the other side of the mountain, and the afterglow was shining over the courtyard, gilding each of their faces with a yellowish sheen.

It's picturesque.

Zhang Xing lowered her head.

Soon after, it was getting dark.
