The courtyard was silent, except for the main house, where the lights were on.

Including the Li family, the adults and children in the family are all there.

As soon as Zhao Fuxiang and Zhao Shanlinpu entered the house, they were startled by the people in the house.

Fortunately, Zhao Fuxiang was very serious in the past, and the lights were dim tonight, so he didn't see any change in his face.

And Zhao Shanlin on the side touched Liu's side early, and his eyes signaled to Liu, why is her mother there.

Liu didn't speak, only waved his hand and pointed back and forth.

Zhao Shanlin nodded thoughtfully, and roughly understood how her mother came back.

At this time, Zhao Fuxiang had already bypassed the people on the ground, sat down on the kang again, turned his head and asked the Li family about the situation in the city.

"There's no news at the moment, but I see, it's only a matter of the next few days," Li said affirmatively, but Zhao Fuxiang had no objection.

On the contrary, Zhao Fuxiang nodded after hearing this, "That's right, it's better for you to come back early, otherwise it will be difficult to run away when the city is in chaos," There are many people in the city, and there are also officers and soldiers of a county government, if something really happens, I am afraid that it will be the most difficult to escape in a panic.

"In charge, what are the rules of the current family?" Li then asked about the situation, "Do you need to arrange it first?" ”

Zhao Fuxiang sighed, and his voice was a little low, "Well, the patriarch also said that in the past few days, they will probably have to escape," otherwise, once the war starts, if there is no chaos, not to mention the chaos, the conscription alone will be enough for them to resist."

"Dad, are we really going to the south right now?" Zhao Shanlin hurriedly interjected, his expression panicked, "It's dangerous to go to the south, let's really not do it." ”

He went to a meeting with him tonight, and he heard what Zhao Furui said clearly, and naturally knew that the Zhao clan was inclined to flee to the south.

However, the mountain roads to the south, thousands of miles, are bandit and barren, and there are so many children and women in the family, how can they walk!

When Zhao Fuxiang heard this, he looked up at the dark beams with a complicated expression.

Zhao Shanlin's words, he didn't know.

But what can they do, where else can they go if they don't go south?

Heading north?

It was freezing in the north, and the crops did not grow, so they could not survive at all.

For now, we can only go to the south.

After all, the development of the south is good, and the prince there is quite hard-working, at the beginning, he knew a lot about the south from Zhao Shanyu.

The people there live and work in peace and contentment, and there are no exorbitant taxes on their side...... Bet on it, they're also thinking about future generations!

Thousands of miles, for him, is tantamount to a fool's dream, but what about counting so many people in the village? Always a guarantee.

"Now, the south is the safest," Zhao Fuxiang looked at Zhao Shanlin, and the corners of his eyes also paid attention to the others around him, "If there is a war here, where do you think the others will flee?" ”

Changle County is just a small city, counting the surrounding area, the population is only tens of thousands, if something really happens, most of them will choose the direction of Chaoyang Chengjun to flee.

The reason is also simple, Yangcheng County is located in the west of Changle County, after all, it is the county seat, not only guarded by heavy soldiers, but also several granaries.

But it's also because this accident is in Yangcheng County, and if they go over now, won't they fall into the net?

So, Yangseong-gun can't.

In addition to Yangcheng County, the closest county town to them is only Yinwu County.

Yinwu County, this place is in the east, a thousand miles away from Changle County, but it is not their jurisdiction, and when they go, they are refugees who have lost their land.

I also know that if I really become a refugee with nothing, then there is no hope at all.

Therefore, Yinwu County is not good.

The rest, only Pingqi County in the north and Wangzi Town in the south, one is 800 li, the other is more than 1,000 li, one is cold, and the other is close to the south, which is not bad in comparison.

Everyone thought according to Zhao Fuxiang's thoughts, if there was really a war here, thinking of those villagers who had fled, they would definitely rush into the nearest Yangcheng County, even if they didn't go, they would go to Xuancheng County, where the prince lived...... Zhao Shanlin suddenly trembled with fright and stopped speaking.

The same goes for everyone else, and at this moment, they all realize the seriousness of the problem.

"South, I will definitely go," Zhao Fuxiang said sonorously, and regardless of whether others could accept such a choice, he continued to take care of himself, "In the past few days, the things at home, try to take away as much as possible, and if you can't take them away, sort them out and bury them in the cellar, and you can't be cheaper for others." ”

"Dad, what about the family's fields and property?" Thinking that these can't be taken away, Zhao Shanlin couldn't help but feel distressed, if nothing else, it would be his family business!

When Zhao Fuxiang heard this, he glared at Zhao Shanlin angrily, "Breath!" ”

With this idea, if they really managed to escape to the south, what did they want?

Listening to Xiao Wu, although there is no title deed in the south, it can rent more land and collect low rent, which is very suitable.

Although he had never been to the south, he could also hear from Xiao Wu's mouth that the south was good.

Although the road is long, the future is bright, and the south is rich in water and soil, the climate is pleasant, and the order is good, even if you simply stay in the south to do business, it is better to do better than here.

Although they always call them barbarians at every turn, how many things in their homes are unique to the local area? Not all of them came from the south, which is enough to show that the south is rich and prosperous.

"The fields and houses can't be moved, and the rest of you can do it separately," Zhao Fuxiang finished speaking, then looked at the Li family, and began to explain what he needed to do next, "Old woman, in this way, you can take the women of the family, and when you are free, you can make more food that can be stored for a long time, and you can escape, but you don't have time to eat anything troublesome." ”

The easier it is to escape, the better it is, after all, it is unknown what will happen on the way.

Li nodded in response.

…………

Early the next morning, everyone in the Zhao family got up early.

Li took Liu and several other women to gather in the kitchen to deal with food.

Make cakes, make steamed buns, make twist flowers, make fried noodles...... Anyway, everything that can be put for a long time, and everything that can be opened and put directly in the mouth, must be made.

The men were not idle, and began to go out and connect with each other.

Including some relatives at home, all of them were notified in place.

Of course, this kind of news is not something that they say and others will believe it.

Most people still think it's ridiculous, especially since there is no news in Changle County.

Except for those who are extremely close, they basically don't believe these words from Shangwa Village.

But the people of Shangwa Village didn't care much, and everyone was still preparing to eat in a hurry, in case they fled on the way.

During this period, Zhao Jinyan and Zhao Jinyan also drove home in mule carts.

It's just that the state of the two sisters coming back is very different, and Zhao Yinyan came back with her own children and men.

The others didn't come, after all, Zhao Yinyan's mother-in-law, Ma, was partial to her youngest son and refused to give up the family business in the county seat wholeheartedly, so Zhao Yinyan could only come back with her own belongings.

And Zhao Jinyan, but Cheng Xingmeng rented a mule cart and sent her back with the child.

"Jin Yan, what's wrong?" Seeing Zhao Yinyan holding the child in her arms, followed by her two daughters, and holding her stomach, Li couldn't help frowning, "What about the son-in-law?" Why did you come back alone with your children? ”

Seeing that the belly is almost seven or eight months old, it is about to give birth.

This person doesn't know how to do things with his brains!

When Zhao Jinyan heard this, she had to open her mouth to defend Cheng Xingmeng, "Mother, Xingmeng, he also has no choice, his mother-in-law is making trouble to split the family, Xingmeng is going through the formalities in the county office, and he can't come back at all." ”

"What?"

Li was shocked, and said in his heart that his eyebrows were burning now, why did he still break up?

"It's not my sister-in-law and two brothers-in-law," Zhao Jinyan was also angry, and suddenly said all the words that held her stomach, "My little brother-in-law wants to marry, and the money is not enough, my good mother-in-law is planning to sell the family house and help my brother-in-law marry." ”
