Shen Man'er took off the cloak on her head, revealing a pretty little face, and slowly stepped forward.

"Don't be afraid, we are not bad people, my name is Shen Man'er, and I was sent by the imperial court to provide disaster relief this time. ”

Disaster relief?

Could this be the lady of the Chincha?

"Big... people..."

Xiurong trembled and knelt on the ground, and was so frightened that he couldn't say a word for a long time.

"My lord, we have wronged, my son died so miserably, my lord, you have to avenge my son. ”

Mrs. He was sitting quietly on the stool, and she didn't move when Xiurong knelt, but at this time, she suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Ziling's arm, and her godless eyes were accompanied by tears and endless grievances.

"Old lady, you let me go first, I'm not Lord Qincha, this one next to me is. ”

Although Ziling is a doctor, her heart is as hard as a rock, and now she sees the miserable appearance of the old lady, although her arm is painful from being caught, she has not broken it.

"Mother, let go, you caught the wrong person. ”

"Lord Qincha, my wife is blind and her brain is not easy to use, for the sake of her old life, spare her. ”

Shen Man'er stepped forward and looked at the one lying on the bed, this old man still had a hard bone.

"You are Lao Hetou, your wife just said that your son died unjustly, what's going on?"

Lao He looked at Shen Man'er for a few seconds, and he couldn't guess what this Lord Qin sent to their house for.

If you want to say that you are harming yourself, you are old and young in your family, and maybe it won't be long before you and your wife go down to accompany your son.

If it is said that he avenged himself, since ancient times, officials have protected each other, will this Lord Qincha be an exception?

After thinking about it, Lao He decided to gamble, anyway, he was dying, and the big deal was that all of them went to accompany their son tonight.

"My son..."

After Lao He Tou finished speaking, Shen Man'er and the others glanced at each other.

Mo Fengcheng also discovered the epidemic, and listening to the meaning of the old man, Mu Yingqiu also knew it, but he deliberately covered it up.

Could it be that he knew the true cause of the plague?

"You said that after your son entered the mountain, he suddenly ran back in a panic one day, did your son tell him why he was afraid?"

Lao He Tou shook his head, when he saw his son, his son was being taken away by officers and soldiers.

"I know. ”

Xiurong on the side thought about it and said slowly.

"My man said that Mu Yingqiu asked them to go into the mountain to chop firewood for warmth, and after they entered the mountain, they did not cut firewood at all, but went directly to a cave, the cave was dark, and there were people digging inside, so they carried the dug out.

One day, when my man was carrying with others, he accidentally fell, and a golden lump rolled out of a layer of black ore, and my man was frightened on the spot.

Later, the more my man thought about it, the more frightened he became, so he secretly ran back, but as soon as he came back, he was taken away by the officers and soldiers, and he died soon after. ”

Golden pimples?

Could it be that there is a gold mine in the back mountains of Mofeng City.

It is illegal to open a gold mine privately, if Mu Yingqiu really opened a gold mine privately in the name of graphite mining, this crime alone is enough to put him to death, and even the Mu family may not be able to escape the involvement.

"Ahem, cough, cough..."

Shen Man'er and the others were still surprised to hear what they heard, so they heard Lao He Tou cough violently.

"Ziling, can you help him take a look at the injuries on his body?"

Ziling walked to the side of the bed and probed the pulse of the old man, the old man's body was too weak, his injuries were not serious, but he couldn't eat and drink, and he was infected with the wind and cold, so it became more and more serious.

"What do you eat every day, don't you give your father-in-law a full meal, you see how thin he has become, if he loses weight again, even if the Da Luo Immortal comes, he can't save him. ”

After Ziling finished speaking, Xiurong cried silently, and this cry, there was a baby's cry in the room next to her.

Xiurong hurriedly got fat and went to the next room and picked up the child, and at this glance, Shen Man'er recognized that this was the woman from yesterday.

"My lord, don't scold Xiurong, Xiurong is also a hard-working child, the baby was just born, my son died, our old couple became like this again, and the burden of the family fell on her alone.

I don't want to eat myself, there is little food at home, and I'm dying, so I'll leave that little food to the two of them. ”

After Lao He Tou finished speaking, he began to cough non-stop, and Shen Man'er's heart was twitching when he heard it.

"I see that the crops in the village are growing very well, and although your son is dead, there should be some food in the family, how can you starve yourself to death. ”

Listening to Shen Man'er's words, Lao He smiled miserably, as if he had heard a big joke.

"Crops, how can we have crops? I heard that Mu Yingqiu took you to check on the disaster today, and the crops you saw today were all from the Mu family.

In the entire Sha Village, only a few families have their own fields, and after paying rent every year, there is not much left of those fields. ”

After listening to Lao Hetou's words, Shen Man'er was startled, the world of the entire Shacun Village was almost the Mu family.

This is the case in Shacun, and the same is true in other villages, and the records in the government show that every family has a field under its name, and the rent is only 40% of the harvest.

"What about this disaster relief and food distribution?"

When it came to this, Lao He was simply furious.

"It is true that the government has distributed grain, but the grain is moldy and cannot be eaten at all, or it is full of sand.

Moreover, Mu Yingqiu also threatened everyone who received food that they must not talk nonsense, otherwise they would not even have this kind of food.

This Mo Feng City is the world of the Mu family, everyone has long been used to being bullied by the Mu family, if it weren't for the death of Liangzi this time, our whole family would have no hope, and I wouldn't have gone to the official mansion to make trouble. ”

mentioned that his son died, and Eagle Eagle suddenly had something very incomprehensible.

"Your son didn't have to go into the mountains, even if he froze to death, he would be better than now. ”

Hearing Yingying's words, Lao He Tou sighed helplessly, and Xiuying's mother and daughter cried in a low voice again.

"There is no way, in this Mo Feng City, not only the land belongs to the Mu family, but even the mountains and rivers are also the Mu family, if you want to live, you must rely on the Mu family, our family is a single seedling, I don't want him to enter the mountain, but if he doesn't enter the mountain, how will we live next, this Mu family will kill us alive." ”

Outside the room, Shen Man'er looked at the bright moon in the sky, if there was no snow disaster in Jiangnan, if she didn't come, would the people of Mofeng City continue to live like this miserable.

The black clouds suddenly covered the bright moon, and the sky in the distance seemed to be accompanied by lightning, Shen Man'er sighed, and the snow was going to fall again.

"Man'er, it's all arranged. ”

"Let's go back to the inn. ”
