"Mother~ That bowl of rye porridge, is it really from the village elder? Village elder, why did you suddenly give Xiao Azi such a good rye porridge!"

"The village elder has a good heart, don't ask again! Hurry up and get better, wait for tomorrow, my mother will take you to thank the village chief!" Zhang replied with red eyes.

"Uh-huh! Xiao Azi will be fine tomorrow, and he will definitely thank the village elder when the time comes!"

After hearing his daughter's answer, a complicated look quickly flashed on Zhang's face, and then he stretched out his hand and rubbed Zhang Xiaozi's head very gently.

Zhang Xiaozi also enjoyed it very much, her mother's touch, and her slightly pale face had a cute and comfortable look.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

"Who? Who?!"

Zhang, who was about to appease his daughter and then rest together, suddenly heard a knock on the door, subconsciously turned his head in the direction of the door, and asked tentatively.

"Old Zhang's family, you come out first! Guys have something to discuss!" His voice was full of anxiety.

After hearing that it was a familiar villager who was knocking on the door, Zhang couldn't help but feel a little more puzzled in his heart.

Have something to discuss?

Don't...... Everyone made up a little rye again and gave it to Xiao Azi?!

No way! No way!

Everyone's life is not easy now!

Last time, I was already tightening my belts to get by, and this time I definitely can't accept it anymore!

Zhang thought of the last time, when the villagers made up the matter of rye, and immediately made a certain decision in his heart.

If this time, she was given rye again, she would never accept it again!

Every villager knows the situation in the village, no family is rich, and no family has surplus food.

Even many men who are in better health have already donated rye, leaving only spiny fish, or hare bones and the like to save their lives.

When you are really hungry and can't stand it, you will put spiny fish, hare bones, etc. to boil a pot of soup, with a little meat soup, the most satisfying!

has already dragged everyone down once, and Zhang's is determined to be ruthless this time, and he must not affect everyone again.

Not really...... So she ran [to the north side of the village] and tried her luck at that place!

Zhang thought so!

"Mother~" Zhang Xiaozi also heard the sound outside the house, subconsciously hid in the cotton clothes, stretched out her right hand and grabbed the corner of her mother's clothes.

"Good ~ it's okay! Don't worry, go out and have a look! You just have a good rest!"

Zhang rubbed Zhang Xiaozi's head again, and took the opportunity to tighten the cotton clothes, making sure that Zhang Xiaozi was wrapped in the cotton clothes before getting up and walking out of the house.

And when Zhang walked out of the house and saw the situation outside the house, his whole heart suddenly sank.

The members of the entire Xuehua Village, except for the village chief Zhuang Yi and her daughter who was infected with the wind and cold, the rest of the villagers were all there!

And everyone's expressions are unusually heavy!

Even Zhang's saw that in his usual impression, a few men with a stronger temperament were actually crying and sobbing in a low voice at this time.

Something went wrong!!

It's still a big deal for the whole village!

Zhang's heart was instantly pinched tightly, his head was lowered, and he leaned towards everyone without saying a word.

"Zhang's has also arrived! So...... Except for the village chief and Xiao Ah Zi, the people in the village are here, if you have anything to say, let's talk about it first!" After Tian Laosan saw Zhang come out, he said in a deep voice.

Puff~

And when Tian Laosan's words fell, Ma Liu knelt down for the first time, slammed his head on the ground, and cried and roared: "I, Ma Liu, am sorry for everyone!" It's me who has failed the whole village! I'm guilty! If tomorrow, the rye in the field really withered...... I'm going to take a trip [to the north]!"

"Ma Liu!"

"Six sons! Wrong...... It's really not you!"

"Old Horse...... Not only are you not wrong, but neither is the village chief! The village chief is a nobleman, and he thinks about us untouchables, even if we really starve to death, we won't have half a complaint! Hate ...... He hates us for being cheap......"

"Woo...... If we die, the dynasty ...... Isn't the dynasty going to ...... extinction?"

Syllable~

"Don't fart! As long as the village ...... There is only one person left, as long as the village chief is still there, the dynasty ...... The dynasty will never fall!"

Originally, Tian Laosan didn't feel good in his heart, and he really couldn't blame the village chief or Ma Liu for this matter.

The village chief wants to water the land for the autumn harvest and hopes that the harvest will be better, and even wants to go to the field himself to do such a vulgar thing as cultivating the land!

A baron, for the sake of a group of lowly poor people, has completely put down their nobility, what more can they ask for?!

And what about Ma Liu?

That's the compatriots who escaped together!

and made a poisonous oath together, a hero who will never surrender and never give in!

Such a person, no one will suspect that he will be persecuted, the only source of food in the village!

To blame...... It's only ...... to blame The Divine Bird appeared at a bad time!

And when a villager suddenly cried and wailed, and mentioned the word "dynasty" at the right time, Tian Laosan finally couldn't help it.

not only directly greeted the villager with a slap, but also scolded him very harshly.

As for the villager who was lectured, not only did he not have the slightest anger, but he lowered his head with great self-reproach, because he knew that he had indeed said the wrong thing just now, and if he had been punished by the laws of the previous dynasty, his life would have been given a long time ago!

"That's it! Now I don't call you here to cry! I, Tian Laosan, am also a rough person, I just want to ask everyone, is there any solution! If tomorrow ...... The rye in the rye field can't support the power of the divine bird, and if it really dies, everyone...... What to do?!"

Tian Laosan's voice this time, although he let go a little and deliberately maintained a calm tone, the trembling and uneasiness in his words could not be hidden.

With Tian Laosan's speech this time, the villagers were silent, and they were all thinking seriously: if rye ...... If you really can't withstand the power of the divine bird and all of them die, what should you do?!

During the period when Tian Laosan was speaking, Zhang had already learned the general situation of the matter through the surrounding villagers.

She also has no complaints about this matter!

Whether it is the village chief or Tsushima Liu, there is no meaning to blame!

And...... happened to encounter this incident, and Zhang was even faintly happy in his heart.

Because she finally found a chance to repay everyone in the village!

"Brother Maliu! If you're going to [the north] tomorrow, take your little sister with you!" At this time, Zhang was the only one with a smile on his face among all the villagers.

Zhang ...... Zhang's ...... You are crazy? ”

"Zhang! You......

"Old Zhang's family, you ruthlessly left your daughter, so you don't want it?"

……

"Usually Xiao Azi and I have a lot of trouble in the village, but now the village is in trouble...... Please give me, an ominous person, a chance to repay the favor! I beg you!"

As he spoke, tears suddenly welled up on his smiling face, as if he was crazy, and he began to learn from Ma Liu, kowtowing fiercely to the villagers.

As for Zhang's opening, there were originally villagers who wanted to say something, but they couldn't help choking up at this time, so they had to look at Zhang in a daze, and their heads were blank.

After a long time, Tian Laosan suddenly slapped himself, then suppressed his throat and choked up: "Tomorrow!" If tomorrow ...... Is rye really dead...... Zhang and Ma Liu...... Go [to the north] in search of food!"

"The third! Thank you......"

"Thank you, Brother Tian!"

Zhang and Ma Liu, after hearing Tian Laosan's answer, both of them couldn't help but smile on their faces, with tears in their eyes, very awkward, but very sincere......

Looking at Ma Liu and Zhang's smiling faces with tears in their eyes, Tian Laosan finally became ruthless and ordered: "I will emphasize one last sentence!" This thing...... If anyone dares to reveal it to the village chief, let the village chief worry...... The laws of the dynasty are serving!"

The villagers agreed to agree!

——

However, none of the villagers noticed that in the corner not too far away from them, a very thin figure had already seen everything.

At this time, Zhang Xiaozi's face was already crying, and he covered his mouth with his right hand, lest he would cry out.

Because she remembers...... Her mother told her many times that she could go to the vicinity of the village, but she could not go except [to the north]...... Otherwise...... You're going to be eaten by the bad guys [in the north]!

However, just now, she heard with her own ears that her mother, who had scared and warned her many times, was actually going to [the north]!

When Zhang Xiaozi heard this, tears welled up completely uncontrollably.

She has already drunk the rye winter jujube porridge for her 13th birthday, and she is no longer a child who doesn't understand anything, and she knows it very well in her heart...... What would have happened if my mother had gone [to the north]!

Zhang Xiaozi looked at her mother who was not far away, with a smile on her face, and suddenly seemed to think of something, and suddenly grabbed the luxurious robe on her body.

Turning around, he ran to the only relatively intact and warm wooden house in the village......
