Chapter 333: Bandits
Qian Qianqian had nothing to say for a while, she didn't expect Mu Tianyue to be so fast, she had already said that she would solve the matter by herself, but Mu Tianyue still sent food, which should be indispensable to Xiao Mohan's orders.
"Okay, we've already delivered the food, so we won't bother."
After the grain was built, the man headed by Qian Qianqian bowed slightly, very respectful and polite, although he looked rough, but his behavior did not look like a vulgar person at all, like a person who had read poetry and books, and learned etiquette.
"Well, I'm glad you guys." Qian Qianqian knew it in her heart, but she didn't pierce it, and the men nodded, and then left one after another.
"So much food, now our family has food for the winter, don't be hungry, Qian Qianqian, if you really have the ability, once you get out, there is nothing you can't do."
Qian Mu looked at so much food, and suddenly smiled from ear to ear, nodded in front of Qian Qianqian, and didn't mention the matter of cleaning up the dead mice just now, she simply held Qian Qianqian to the sky.
Qian Qianqian knew Qian's mother's temperament, so she didn't take her words to heart at all, and the cellar had not been cleaned up yet, so the food could only be put in the yard first.
"Qianqian, didn't you go to General Xiao? Why did it come to Boss Mu who sent the food? ”
Mother Qian has been surrounding Qian Qianqian, very puzzled in her heart, with a greedy light in her eyes, swallowing saliva from time to time.
"I met Boss Mu on the road, so I didn't go to the General's Mansion, I have always had business dealings with Boss Mu, he heard about it, and he was willing to help, but these grains were not given to us for free, and after the New Year, the grain will be returned to Boss Mu."
Qian Qianqian's expression was still solemn, she must not relax a little bit against people like Qian Mu, otherwise Qian Mu would gain an inch and aim at Mu Tianyue again.
"Boss Mu can lend us so much food, which can be regarded as generous, it seems that this Boss Mu is really affectionate and righteous."
Mother Qian was interested, although Qian Qianqian didn't give her a good face, but she still had other ideas, Qian Qianqian also understood what Mother Qian meant, so she didn't say anything more.
"Okay, it's not too early, Xiaofen and the others should be hungry, I'll go make dinner."
Qian Qianqian interrupted Qian's mother's thoughts, and didn't give Qian's mother a chance to speak, and as soon as the words fell, she raised her feet and entered the house.
The kitchen hasn't been used for a long time, and there are no dishes, so Qian Qianqian just simply cooked a few bowls of noodles, anyway, it's dinner, and it's nothing to eat simply.
"So you don't even have a dish? Brother Yao is just when he is growing his body, and Xiaohui, just such a bowl of noodles, there is no oil and water at all, aren't you harming your own brother? ”
Mother Qian picked the noodles in the bowl, with a look of disgust, Qian Qianqian is back, life is really not good, it is better to go to the hot pot restaurant to eat.
"It's just a meal, a grievance, what can happen? The old days were so hard that I couldn't even fill my stomach, didn't I come over like this? ”
Qian Qianqian's face was full of indifference, and her eyes were sharp, so that Xiaofen and the others didn't dare to make a sound, Brother Yao bit his fingers, and he was not interested in the noodles in front of him, but he didn't dare to show it openly in front of Qian Qianqian.
"It used to be before, now that life is better, you can't go back to the past, you opened a store and made so much money, you are reluctant to spend it on our family, and the silver is all in your pocket."
Qian's mother has always been mean, so she is also speculating wildly now, and she didn't save any face for Qian Qianqian, as if Qian Qianqian was not her biological daughter at all.
"I have all the money to use, and I don't have much money, so eat it quickly, otherwise the noodles will be cold and it won't taste good."
Qian Qianqian didn't bother with Qian's mother, but just explained a little, then lowered her head to eat noodles, and Qian's mother had no choice but to accept her fate.
The meal sighed, Qian Mu and the others left the table and went back to the room, Qian Qianqian and Xue Yi cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, lit candles, and the room was barely bright.
"I'm watching from outside tonight, and I'm sure no one will take advantage of the idea of beating these grains."
Xue Yi knew that Qian Qianqian had concerns, so she took the initiative to speak up to reassure Qian Qianqian.
"Thank you for your hard work." Qian Qianqian nodded slightly, and left the kitchen with Xue Yi one after another.
Early the next morning, Qian Qianqian got up, her home was different from the General's Mansion, she couldn't treat Xue Yi as a slave, so she went to get washing water by herself.
Today, she is going to Qianjia Village, not only for the sake of the eldest aunt and the third aunt's family, but also to see how the fields in the village are doing, and whether Bai Shi and Zhao Ye have done what she said.
Xue Yi went early in the morning to buy rat repellent, and put it in the cellar and kitchen, and so on, or in a few days, the rats would be cleaned up.
"You accompany me to Qianjia Village, anyway, no one should dare to do anything in the blue sky."
Qian Qianqian found Xue Yi and gave a faint order, Xiao Mohan arranged a lot of eyeliner near her house, and no one should dare to act rashly during the day.
"Yes." Xue Yi didn't refuse, Qian Qianqian prepared breakfast for Qian's mother's family, ate a little, and went out.
Afraid that Qian's mother would think too much, Qian Qianqian only said that she would go out for a walk and look for other businesses, but did not say that she was going to Qianjia Village.
I haven't been back to Qianjia Village for a long time, when I arrived in the village, Qian Qianqian still felt a little strange, the hardest time for their family was here, and now she finally moved the family out, and she has to break the connection with this lotus, can't give up, fate is really intriguing.
Bai Shi and Zhao Ye lived in a newly built thatched hut in the village, Qian Qianqian went straight over, only to see Bai Shi was about to go out and bumped into her, Bai Shi was surprised and delighted.
"Boss Qian, you're back." A smile welled up on Bai Shi's face, and he strode in front of Qian Qianqian, seemingly caught off guard.
"Well, what about Zhao Ye?" Qian Qianqian nodded slightly, there was no superfluous look on her face, her eyes were not shocked, and her tone was very gentle.
"In the house, please come in." Baishi immediately invited Qian Qianqian and Xue Yi in, and Zhao Ye came out to meet Qian Qianqian, and Baishi was the same as before, nothing unusual.
"I asked you to send food to the Qian family in this village every month, have you delivered it all?"
Qian Qianqian just glanced at Bai Shi and Zhao Ye lightly, her eyebrows frowned slightly, and there was a hint of fierceness between her delicate eyebrows, although her body was weak, her momentum was exactly the same.
"It's delivered, we send the food every month according to your instructions, and the money family has also accepted it."
Bai Shi slowly opened his mouth and explained in a fifteen-ten, so that the eldest aunt and the third aunt were still attacking her, and it seemed that they were restless and couldn't get along with her.
"Boss Qian, is something wrong?" Zhao Ye looked at Qian Qianqian's solemn expression, and couldn't help but guess in his heart.
"It's okay, from now on, there is no need to send food, if they come to make trouble, drive them out, don't pay attention to them."
Qian Qianqian remained silent, there was no superfluous look on her face, there was a hint of mockery in her tone, and her eyes were indescribably contemptuous.
"Why all of a sudden? If this is done, I am afraid that the Qian family will not give up. ”
Bai Shi was very puzzled, they had been in the village for so long, and they had already known the temperament of the Qian family, so they were a little suspicious of Qian Qianqian's decision.
"I've accommodated those people long enough, and since they don't want to live a good life, then don't let it go."
Qian Qianqian sneered, her eyes flashed with a touch of cunning, and her face was full of indifference, which made people dare not approach easily.
"We understand, don't worry, we will do what you tell us."
Bai Shi and Zhao Ye both nodded, Qian Qianqian looked around, everything in this house was the same, she hadn't been to the field when she came just now, this village was so calm, it made her a little strange.
"Take me to the field." Qian Qianqian raised her red lips lightly, looked calm, gently spit out a few words, and then stood up.
"Boss Qian, please come here." Bai Shi and Zhao Ye also stepped aside, leading Qian Qianqian out, it was almost noon now, but there were not many villagers outside, it stands to reason that these are all croppers, and now is not the time for farming, they should come out to hunt and grow vegetables.
"How is this village so deserted? Has it been like this since these days? ”
Qian Qianqian looked around and found that the doors were closed without looking for farmers, as if they were deliberately hiding something, and there was not even a little fireworks in Nuoda Village, which was really weird to look at.
"A few days ago, a gang of robbers suddenly came to the village and stole a lot of grain and livestock, so those people were scared, so they didn't dare to go out, for fear of provoking the bandits again."
Shiraishi explained slowly, keeping his head down, as if there was something unspeakable.
"Robbers? How can there be robbers in this good way? I've never heard of it before. ”
Qian Qianqian is very strange, how long has she and Xiao Mohan been gone, why did they suddenly give birth to a group of robbers? It's also incredible.
"We didn't expect that the gang of robbers seemed to come out of thin air, ran away after grabbing things, and disappeared without a trace, and Lord Zhou also sent someone to check, but they didn't find the slightest clue."
Bai Shi is very distressed, and Zhao Ye is the same, it seems that that gang of robbers should be unusual, otherwise they shouldn't even be able to find Zhou Lin.
"How many times did they come and grab it?" Qian Qianqian's face sank a little, her eyes narrowed slightly, and she seemed to be pondering something in her heart.
"Twice, the second time, Lord Zhou personally led people to patrol the village, but they didn't catch their handles, and the villagers were frightened."
Zhao Ye explained one by one, mentioning this, it seems that he still has palpitations, and his walking posture is also a little strange, as if there is something wrong with his legs.
"What's wrong with your leg?" Qian Qianqian hadn't found out before, but now she has walked a lot, and she has also seen the clues, Zhao Ye didn't walk so awkwardly before.
"I accidentally injured my leg when I started with the robbers before, and although the external injury was healed, the root of the leg fell into the disease, so it can only be like this in the future."
Zhao Ye lowered his eyes slightly, his expression became solemn, his brows tightened, although he said calmly, Qian Qianqian could see that this matter had hit him hard.
