Xu Niangzi hurriedly left Xiaowan Village, and the Wang family also panicked and returned to the Mo family at the head of the village, this farce ended, Shubai and Li Niang were sulking at home for a long time, Zhang Ji's mother and son deceived people too much, but they had no good way to retaliate, just hoping that this refusal would make them stop.

"I'm going to write a letter to the third uncle." Shubai said and went back to the East House, he wanted to tell Zhang Xin about this through the mouth of the third uncle, hoping that Zhang Xin could restrain Zhang Ji's mother and son, Li Niang felt that this method was useless, so she could only say that she would give it a try.

The rain was intermittent, and it did not stop until the third day of the first month of August, and the Jinshui River was in danger frequently, but it finally survived, but other places were miserable, several states were flooded, and the number of refugees who came to the capital to ask the emperor for food suddenly increased several times.

Village Chief Li went to the town for a meeting, and when he came back, he organized adult men to patrol day and night, mainly because there were many refugees, and the army was busy preparing for war, and the soldiers guarding the refugee camp were called back, and the Praetorian Guards were too busy to garrison the imperial city, and there were no extra soldiers sent out to maintain order.

Shubai locked his younger siblings at home and restrained them from going out, but he himself frequently went in and out of Jinshui Town, and he responded to the call of Lin County's order to organize a group of scholars to donate money and food, and every morning with his classmates went to give porridge and medicine to the refugees, doing what he could.

As a result, the scholars inevitably had to skip a few classes, but instead of punishing them, the teachers of the college praised the students' righteous deeds, and some teachers who were more well-off also donated some money to the students to give alms to the refugees.

As a man of the year among the merchants of Jinshui Town, Uncle Cheng is not far behind, uniting the merchants of the town to do good and accumulate virtue, they have channels, it is cheaper and more convenient to buy food, and there are two large pots of porridge and alms every day, and the refugees will not make trouble if they are half full, and Jinshui Town, which is almost surrounded by refugees, is actually quite safe.

Daqingshan and Jinshui River are two natural barriers, and the small bridge is guarded day and night.

This conscription is not the same as conscription, which can be bought with silver, and those who do not want to serve can be exempted by paying a certain amount of silver.

Jiang's scared thing appeared, she has many sons, and there are two strong men, she must draw one, Li Daniu is the pillar of the family and can't go, Li Xiaoniu is the right age but will get married a year ago, this marriage will not be completed, the girl's family sent a matchmaker to come over and say that if Li Xiaoniu goes to be a soldier, then the family affair will be ruined.

Li Daniu was reluctant to let his son lose his family affairs and go to the battlefield, so he said that he was going to be a soldier, who knew that Li Xiaoniu ran away in the middle of the night, and went to the yamen of the military department to sign up, and he wore a military uniform to go home on the same day, and went to return the family affairs by himself, but fortunately he did not make up his mind, there was no bride price dispute, so the family affairs were also retreated simply.

At this time, Village Chief Li was very glad that he only had one son, and he escaped, the entire Xiaowan Village, this conscription is also the village chief's family, the Mo family, and the He family do not need to draw Ding, and each of the other families has drawn one, like Mo Wenwu, who ran out to be a soldier by himself, otherwise, Mo Zigui, who has not yet made a name, will not be able to run away.

Zhuang Ding wants to report to the barracks on the ninth day of August, and he can't even spend the Mid-Autumn Festival at home, Jiang Shi saw that Shubai was in the village, and brought Li Xiaoniu over to chat for a while, nothing else, just to ask Shubai to write a letter to the third uncle of the Mo family, it would be good to be able to assign Li Xiaoniu to the third uncle of Mo, it is really not good, there are acquaintances to take care of it, and the family is more at ease.

This letter, the book must be written, but the letter also told the third uncle to do what he can, don't force yourself, the big war is imminent, and it is not a good strategy to make enemies in the army.

A few days before and after the ninth day of the new year, the crying in the village has not stopped, Li Niang thought that the third uncle was going to fight and was depressed, she listened to her brother, she didn't go to the village a step, she wanted to eat tofu and make it herself, she wanted to eat meat and let her brother take it from the town, and honestly listen to her brother's words to be a housemaid.

The day before the Mid-Autumn Festival, Shubai came back from outside on a jujube red horse, handed Li Niang ten boxes of moon cakes and five hundred taels of silver tickets, and he sold five moon cake recipes to Lin Cuiping's dim sum shop.

Li Niang listened, smiled and stared at her brother for a long time, and looked at him with a red face, "What do you see, hurry up and set the meal, do you want to starve your brother to death?" ”

"That can't be, my brother starved to death, who will marry my beautiful and virtuous sister-in-law back?" Before her brother's slap was reached, Li Niang laughed and dodged away.

Speaking of my brother's family affairs, since the incident of the, the Wang family has been very honest, and the matchmaker has not come to the door for the time being, Li Niang thinks that honesty is not the attribute of the Wang family, she must be secretly holding back the bad moves, but people don't make moves now, and they can't deal with it, right?

This year's Mid-Autumn Festival is very deserted, every household is worried that there is not enough food to eat, worried that the men who go out on the expedition will have accidents, the emperor is also calling on the people of the world to be diligent and thrifty to keep their families through the difficulties, it is said that the ladies in the palace are taking the lead in saving food and clothing, saving money to fight, to drive out the invasion of Rong Di.

Early in the morning of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Shubai still took Qingyuan to the second room to send a festival gift, there were not many things, two boxes of moon cakes, and Dolly Niang was not happy.

Because the Wang family wanted to sell Li Niang, Shubai was not happy when he saw her, offered moon cakes, and said goodbye without saying a few words, and when he returned home, he found that He Liansheng actually came to the door, and took his unobtrusive sister He Liniang.

"Oh, Brother Shubai is back, are you thirsty, are you tired? Sit down, come, and have tea. ”

He Liniang, who was dressed like a flower, was unusual, very attentive, and made the book very uncomfortable, this is my home, what do you want to do like this.

Shubai took two steps back, "Sister He doesn't have to be polite, the person who comes is a guest, you sit, don't be busy." ”

Knowing that Li Niang didn't like to call Li Niang, he called Sister He.

He Liansheng was a little embarrassed, but he didn't reprimand his sister for being ignorant, holding the tea bowl and sipping it slowly, Li Niang didn't care so much, flirted her eyelids and said: "Okay, my brother, you have also seen it, and I know that you are all busy, so I won't leave you to eat." ”

As soon as he opened his mouth, he was not polite at all, He Liansheng was so ashamed that his face was flushed, but he was reluctant to leave, and he wanted to look at Li Niang twice.

He Liniang hated Liniang to death, but now she didn't dare to offend her, and said with a smile: "Usually I help my mother wash and cook, and then I learn from the female red to read and read the female book, and I am not too busy, so let's talk more with Liniang today." ”

In addition to showing off is a grievance, Li Niang laughed angrily. (To be continued.) )
