Chapter 590: Hope (I)

"Those who have red stripes on their hands, all go this way, take a bath, change clothes, men on the left and women on the right...... Each enters his own bathhouse......"

Zheng Xingxiang's family, old and young, entered the No. B area with great joy, and in front of them was a large flat field, and on the right, near the river, there were several steaming houses, which seemed to be large bathhouses. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

These people with special slips, under the guidance of the helpers, entered one of the places, and inside the fence, there were black pressure and crowded people, most of whom looked relatively honest, and the whole family gathered.

And here, some of the Lang doctors, whose faces were covered with a white cotton cloth and hung on their heads with two thin strings, looked at them carefully.

Some of the helpers, whose faces were also covered with white brocade cloth, were inspecting their clothes and bedding, and there were desks next to them, and in a warehouse-like warehouse behind them, there were piles of men and women's clothes of different sizes, as well as blankets, which were distributed by different male and female stewards.

"It's so soft that you can put it away by yourself, you can put it in a small escape bag, and the rest of your clothes and bedding will be checked!"

Before inspecting the clothes and bedding, Zheng Xingxiang and other heads of households were issued a small bag, this small bag, lined with oilcloth, can also be covered, inside there are kettles, soap horns, face towels, toothbrushes, flints, small packets of salt and other things, wrapped with straps, can be carried on the body, can also be stretched and shortened, and is a little different from ordinary packages, like a sergeant's medicine bag.

It's a good backpack, but why is it called an escape bag?

Zheng Xingxiang also saw that not far ahead, there was a hut with a curtain hanging, and many people entered with large bags and small bags, and then came out with small bags on their backs.

In the family, Yaya's father and second son Zheng Tianmin are more careful and steady, and he has also practiced boxing and kicking for a while, and he keeps all the soft and soft in the house, so he hurriedly said and asked him to take a small escape bag. There are also fine soft bags, go to that house, and take some broken silver and copper coins that have been accumulated hard in the house. There are also jewelry, etc., which are packed in the bag.

"These, don't want these, these. Don't want it either. ”

After the homeless people were finely and softly packed, the packages and bedding were opened one by one. Piles of clothes and bedding, after a little inspection, except for a small number of clean clothes, there are also a set of clothes to wear, most of the clothes and bedding of the homeless people, like garbage, were taken away by the helpers whose faces were covered with white brocade cloth.

Piles of them were put into the cart. Then they pushed over the bridge, and they saw black smoke billowing from the other side, which seemed to burn the clothes and bedding.

Many people looked at it with distress, but most of them, their clothes were really tattered and dirty. Many people wear clothes that are sewn and torn like a hundred clothes, black and black, and the original color cannot be seen.

Although their bedding is full of holes, it is so dirty that it can't even fly the cotton wool inside, and it is afraid that it will be full of fleas, so it will naturally be taken away and burned.

"The old doesn't go, the new doesn't come."

Zheng Xingxiang also comforted himself in this way, and at the same time, he was extremely distressed, and a piece of clothing in it had been passed down for several generations.

Fortunately, new clothes were handed out.

"All come to get clothes, one set of adults, two sets of children, a blanket bed, tomorrow, you will go to Zhangjiakou, in Xinghe and Shacheng (later Zhangbei County) around the new Tunpu Tuntian, after arriving at Tunpu, will be issued winter clothes, winter quilts, and some daily necessities."

Zheng Xingxiang's wife died early and had two sons, the eldest son Zheng Tianliang and his wife Tian had a son and a daughter, and the second son Zheng Tianmin and his wife Qian had a daughter Yaya.

Two tables not far away, a man and a woman, looked at them, and the male steward shouted: "There are four sets of large men's clothes, and the underwear is complete." ”

The housekeeper shouted, "Three sets of large women's clothes, two sets of small clothes, and all the underwear." ”

A set of cotton and linen clothes, men are cyan, women are red, hand them over, white underwear and underwear are complete, women are the same, looking a little ashamed, Tian, Qian, etc., hurriedly hugged in her arms, Zheng Tianliang's youngest daughter Zheng Jianniang, almost eighteen, is quite ashamed, but her face is full of mud, but she can't see her expression.

Only Yaya excitedly took the clothes, looked left and right, so beautiful red clothes, in the past, only the New Year had new clothes to wear, now there are two sets, so happy.

There was also a blanket packed into a large evacuation kit and carried by the head of the household.

"Hurry up, all go to the shower and change clothes, men on the left and women on the right, go into their own bathhouses, change their clothes, take them all away and burn ......"

In the huge bathhouse, there are different halls for men and women, all of them are stripped of a red strip and bathed in the pool, the pool is made of bluestone, one side enters the water, and the other side can come out of the water, as long as the plug is pulled out.

The pool was full of water, and it was hot, and everyone entered, all grinning and grinning, but they were extremely happy.

"Ahh

Yaya slapped the water excitedly, her mother, behind her, with a smile, scrubbed her hard with soap, slowly, revealing Yaya's delicate little face, Zheng Jiaoniang next to her, is also comfortable washing, after she washed, she also looks quite pretty.

Finally, the male and female homeless people who had taken a bath and changed into new clothes came out, and another family gathered, carrying large and small escape bags, clean and clean, under the guidance of the helpers, and went forward again.

There is a flat field in front of it, there are benches, next to it, some barbers are busy, as early as the Han Dynasty, there were barbers, and it was more common in the Ming Dynasty, cutting hair, trimming beards, etc., I can't imagine that this place of shelter for the homeless, there are also special haircuts for the homeless.

At this time, there were already many people sitting on the stool, talking from time to time, they were basking in the sun, there were large buckets of hot water beside them, they could drink water and wait, waiting for their hair and face, and there were female craftsmen, combing the women's hair, etc.

The barber was busy, the men trimmed their hair and shaved their faces, trimmed their beards, and pulled their hair in a bun, and the women also pulled their hair in a bun and combed their hair, both men and women, one by one, their faces were radiant.

……

"Whew, comfort."

Han's father, Han Xianwei, was soaked in a wooden barrel, and the hot water made him exhale deeply.

He took a bath happily, and all the way over, he was covered in a sour smell, not much better than a beggar.

Of course, these people love to be clean, in addition to what they are wearing, in the package, there are very few clothes and bedding that are taken away and burned, naturally, new clothes like Zheng Xingxiang's family will not be given to them, but they are also given a small escape package.

Their family, after entering Area B, was led to a place similar to an inn, and there were also doctors to observe them, of course, their environment is much better, they can be a family, live in several rooms to rest, eat, live, are very good.

The helper who led the way said that living in this place would cost money, but Captain Han had already paid for it, and Han Yuan's family should rest assured.

"This kid is much more careful."

Thinking of his son, Han's father's eyes were a little moist, yes, he spoiled his son too much in the past, and he was too dead, it's time to let him break through by himself.

Thinking of his son, since he was a child, he was afraid of falling in his hand, and he was afraid of melting in his mouth, the names of Han Pannan, Han Wangnan, and Han Ruonan's three daughters can be seen that the Han family has expectations and nervousness for Han Kaihui's son, so from childhood to adulthood, he has watched it very dead.

It's just that the son is a little rebellious, he always wants to do something on his own, and he doesn't go according to his family's arrangement, and in the end, he runs away from home.

At that time, he and his mother were so worried, and the special news came that his son might meet a tartar, and his mother washed her face with tears day and night.

I was worried about it for a few years, and suddenly a letter came, my son joined the army on the East Road, and also went to Liaodong, made great contributions, and now has become a member of the Jingbian Army, and will also marry the daughter of the Jingshi Fu Mansion, under the persuasion of his son, he will move his family to the East Road, alas, think about it, it is like in a dream.

"Ah, there is a well here, hurry up, Pan Nan, Wang Nan, Ruo Nan, come out quickly, and take advantage of the water to change your clothes...... And the clothes and quilts in the package, all of them were washed, and the horses were also brought to brush them......"

When the Han family set off, there were originally three carriages, but they came all the way, the horses ate too much, in order to save rations, the two carriages and horses were sold, only carrying women and children, even Han's father walked all the way, and the remaining horse, rushing every day, was already dirty, black and thin.

At this time, Han's father was thinking that when he passed by the water room, the boiling water seemed to be made of briquettes, and there were holes on it, but he heard his wife's shouting, and couldn't help shaking his head: "This mother-in-law, from marrying herself, is very arrogant everywhere, and loves to be cheap, and it has been decades, and it still hasn......'t changed at all."

"Xianggong, there is a well there."

Mr. Li, Li Xiangqing's family, was assigned a small escape package.

A futon and a few clothes in his house were taken away and burned, and the rest were left, and the family was divided into men and women, and took a bath in a large bathhouse, changed into clean clothes wrapped by themselves, and some people trimmed their hair and combed their hair for free, which was even more refreshing.

Under the guidance of the helper, the family was assigned to their own room, a large bunk in a row of houses, and many families were huddled together, but they were satisfied.

Not far behind this row of rooms, there is a huge thatched house, divided into two ends of men and women, and the helpers have divided several stacks of paper for each family, saying that it is for them to wipe their buttocks, how can such a good paper be used to wipe their butts? Many people are secretly hiding again.

After being settled, everyone waited for the blueprint to come down and the observations of the shelter, and if there was nothing to do, they could leave the shelter tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.

At this time, it was still early, and Li Xiangqing's wife, Yang, found that there was a well not far from the right, and there were rows of laundry counters.

So, she hurriedly took the clothes she had changed and washed them, and the bedding in the package was spread out to dry, just like her, and the same was true for everyone in the shelter room.

There was nothing to do that day, but at night, everyone still drank porridge, but it was in the restaurant in District B, and at night, everyone slept very sweetly, feeling that this was the most reassuring day when fleeing so many refugees. (To be continued.) )
