There are four people who entered the city today, the village chief of Lizheng and Wu Qingzhu, and the one who followed the carriage was Wu Haishen, the person who took people down the mountain to inquire about the situation last time.

When a few people arrived outside the county seat, they saw two teams of soldiers guarding the door, and a pavilion was set up next to it, and there was a middle-aged man dressed as a scholar in the pavilion, who was holding a pen from time to time to record something.

Seeing that there was still some distance from the city gate, several people got out of the car first, walked in front of the carriage, and then walked in the direction of the city gate.

"Wait, who are you?" At this time, one of the leading soldiers at the front stopped them with his weapon in hand.

"This eldest brother is a child from Wujia Village, and next to him is Lizheng from three villages near us, who is here to return to his life today."

"Oh, I know, why did you come, we have already sent someone to look for it twice, and if you don't come again, hum!" This person was wearing armor, and his face was also blocked, but he could hear some displeasure when he heard the tone.

"Don't be angry, the peasant family, I don't know anything, I thought it was a bandit when I encountered some turmoil, and they all went up the mountain in fear. If you knew that it was the military masters who came, you must have prepared the wine and food early and waited, but I didn't expect that the military masters would be neglected now. If this small amount of money is used for a drink, it can be regarded as our reparation. ”

The village chief next to him saw that the situation was not quite right, so he hurriedly came up and took out the two taels of silver that had been prepared in his sleeve and stuffed it into the soldier's sleeve along the sleeves of the two people.

The soldier's hand in his clothes touched it a few times and then smiled, and then spoke: "Since you are here, it can be regarded as a crime, hurry up and report to the yamen, you are still waiting." ”

"This is going, this is going, thank you for the guidance of the military master, and I will definitely repay the military master's kindness in the future." Speaking of which, Village Chief Wu was also helpless, and after counting the circles, his identity was not up to or below and was suitable for this, but it was really good to shoot people's ass.

A group of people did not dare to continue to sit in the carriage, and only after following the carriage for a distance did everyone breathe a sigh of relief, and only after sitting in the carriage did they dare to look up at the situation nearby.

Usually this road is the most lively, and people from nearby villages come and go on this street, and from time to time you can meet one or two acquaintances who can stay and say a few words.

And now! All that was left was dust, snowdrifts, and rotten leaves that had been left for an unknown amount of time.

Village Chief Wu couldn't help but sigh a little when he saw that the streets he had walked on in the past became like this: "Alas, I don't know if this time is a disaster or a blessing!" ”

"It's a blessing or a curse, it's a curse that can't be avoided! It's what it is, it's good to be alive! Looking at the depression of the road, Li Zheng's originally straight shoulders couldn't help but feel a little sluggish, and he didn't know what news would be waiting for him later.

Wu Qingzhu and his party were startled when they arrived at the yamen, the red color that covered the ground really made those of them who didn't know what was going on imagine too many things.

Several people were so frightened that their legs trembled and they did not dare to go any further, and at this moment, a young soldier who was standing in front of the gate and instructed others to do the work saw several people standing there, and his face was a little unkind.

Wu Qingzhu saw that the situation was not right, so he couldn't care about the slightest fear in his heart, and hurriedly walked a few steps forward to tell the reason for the people.

"Wait here for a while, Dadutong is in a bad mood today, I'll send someone to report it first, go in later, don't say much if you want to live, follow Dadutong."

The young man looked at the peasant family members around him, and also knew that it was not easy for them, and thought of his fellow villagers and elders, and couldn't help but speak a little lightly, and gave some hints to a few people through words.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you." This sentence really pointed them out a way to live, this official is really a good person, if they don't know anything and go in, they don't know if there are all corpses when they come out.

A few people turned their heads to see the appearance of a few soldiers wiping the floor, and they couldn't help but shiver, and they were all sweating in February.

Besides, at home, Grandpa Wu followed a group of old brothers to Liujia Village without eating lunch.

Coincidentally, Wu Qinghe and Wu Qingjiang, two cousins, are going to marry girls from Liujia Village, and they are also cousins.

There is still some fate in this matter, and when I talked about kissing, I first talked about Qingjiang's marriage.

Aunt Hong, who went to help, happened to see the cousin of Qingjiang's daughter-in-law who came to help, with a big face and a tall person, and her hands never stopped when she helped, and she was a good hand at work.

The more I watched, the more satisfied I became, as soon as I went home, I told my sister-in-law about it, Aunt Wang was also happy when she heard it, if this marriage can be successful, there will be no contradictions in the family in the future, but it's just kissing and kissing.

A few days later, I went to my in-laws' house to inquire about it, and when I learned that the girl was not engaged, I immediately told the matter happily.

Qingjiang was also present when Qinghe got engaged, and everyone in their family had seen it. Young, tall, and still coming, and a good young man who is hard to find.

Although the grandmother of the Liu family was happy on her face, she still held it on her lips, saying that she would think about it again.

Aunt Wang is also a transparent person, and she knows that she has no need to run for this marriage, so she will go home and wait after agreeing.

Within a few days, I got a reply from there, saying that I thought Qingjiang's guy was not bad, so he agreed.

After the second grandmother learned the news, she dragged the matchmaker to the door to propose, and she didn't take care of it, what was the charter of the first girl, and the second one also followed, so the marriage in the family was completed.

Grandpa Wu's large group of old men came to the door and frightened them, but fortunately, the family members here are also reasonable, and when they heard about it, they hurriedly served tea, and a group of old men chatted happily.

In the end, the people happily agreed to their family's request, but the dowry was more.

In fact, if you are engaged to get married, this marriage is not gone, and the woman's family may not be able to marry even if she quits the marriage. What's more, at this time, how can there be young, strong or able-bodied men in the village? Disagree? The girl said that she couldn't get married if she was old at home.

For the woman to ask for more dowry in the past, after all, the girl married is the same as a widow, and she doesn't know when she will come back after serving in the military, and I don't know if the rebellion of the third prince can succeed.

If the family is implicated, it is better to live a good life, the girl marries in the past, the family has more silver, and it is impossible to say that it can save lives at important moments, and the previous refugee life is really enough.

Since this side agreed, Wu Haisheng immediately drove the carriage to his elders to his home, and he really didn't want to stay for a moment longer.

The women who are waiting for news at home are already packing up the things to hold a banquet, and today is to say it in the past, in fact, it is also a notice, unless it is unreasonable, most of them will not refuse.

At this time, marrying is to keep an heir, and those who have not decided to marry have to spend a lot of money to buy a daughter-in-law to come back, let alone those who are married, if they don't marry back quickly, they still plan to retire in their parents' home?

When a group of people came back and learned that they would be able to pick it up tomorrow, a group of women were busy hula.

In fact, these individuals in their family are busy, and there are daughters-in-law in other families who want to be brought back, so naturally they are just as busy as their family, how can they find time to help at home?

Qingmei heard that she would sit in the kitchen with a stool carrying a branch to do things tomorrow, and she couldn't do other heavy work, so she could still sit on the stool and wash the vegetables, wash the pots and dishes.

Wu Qingjiang's sister is a young woman with a cloth wrapped around her head and a patch on her clothes, and she is a rural person with dark skin, a sallow complexion, thin and tall.

The main reason is that the genes of the Wu family are good, and every child is not low, and this gene is not bad in girls.

This girl is married to Zhangjia Village, and the two people at the head of the village said that they saw her father go to Liujia Village with a group of people, and they probably understood what was going on.

After arranging everything at home, he told his mother-in-law about going back to his parents' house to help.

Fortunately, her mother-in-law is also sophisticated, and she has never been embarrassed in this regard.

When Cuihua arrived home, she saw his mother and aunt, as well as the eldest mother of Wu Qingzhu's family, busy.

didn't dare to delay putting down the things in his hand any longer, so he went to the empty place next to Helan, took a kitchen knife and started cutting vegetables on another board.

Helan also saw Cuihua for the first time, smiled shyly, called her sister, and then hurriedly lowered her head and was busy with her own affairs.

"You are Qingzhu's little daughter-in-law who married home! It's so pretty. Cuihua looked at the little woman beside her while busy with the things in her hands.

"Uh, it should be." Helan froze for a moment, not knowing how to answer.

Mother Wu, who had just gone to the hall to work, saw Cuihua when she came back, and there was a little more smile on her face: "Cuihua is back?" ”

"Yes, auntie."

"Cheng, your mother-in-law didn't say anything, did she?"

"No, I'll be back after saying a word."

At this time, another aunt who was sitting on the side to help also interjected: "What about your man?" ”

Cuihua paused and then replied: "Some time ago, the officers and soldiers came twice and took away a lot of men. The first time was just two men per family, and the second time the strong eighteen-year-old men were taken away, and the head of the family was also taken away. ”

The aunt pursed her mouth, realized that she had said the wrong thing, and quickly lowered her head and busied herself with the things in her hand and stopped talking.

In a word, everyone present was confused.

"What? Miscellaneous things? Why did you take it all away? Where did you take it? When Aunt Hong heard what her girl said, she was so frightened that she lost her spoon.

"How can the officers and soldiers be kind, after taking people away from house to house, they only left two taels of silver, and they didn't say when they would be able to come back."

"This ...... This leaves no way for people to live! "The women in the willing room felt the sky fall instantly when they heard the news, they used to only think that one family sent two to the past, but now it has become all wanted, how can they live as women and children?
