"Then find someone for the old lady to live in!" Xiu'er screamed.

He Lin was so frightened that he hurriedly covered her mouth, "This place is very good!" I've already laid out the bedding and the meal is ready, you pay attention to a night and a half here first, and then I'll find another place to settle you and Lin'er tomorrow, okay? ”

Xiu'er glared at He Lin meanly, "You take care of me first!" Lin'er doesn't have to rush to send me here, he is also living a nourishing life now, which is better than staying in front of me! ”

He Lin breathed a sigh of relief, "That's what I thought!" That...... You stay in the thatched courtyard for a night, and then we will ...... tomorrow."

He looked at Xiu'er tentatively, and Xiu'er finally glanced at him, and said hatefully: "Only this night!" ”

"Hey, hey!" He Lin nodded.

Within two days, He Lin came to ask He Mai for money.

He Mai asked him how much he wanted, and He Lin said that 500 wen was enough.

When He Mai asked He Lin what he was doing with the money, He Lin stood up.

Without thinking too much, you know that the matter of taking money is related to Xiu'er.

But now, if the thief who committed a lot of things can be accommodated, even if another 500 wen is paid, He Mai is willing!

gave the money to He Lin, and He Mai warned him: "Find her a place to live as soon as possible, there are many households in the town who go out to take refuge, and the houses are vacant and left for relatives to rent, if you touch such a house, you can rent it, and you can get rid of trouble early, right?"

Yes, yes...... He Lin agreed repeatedly.

He Mai didn't know how much he listened, and when he left the house, he was in a hurry, looking a little anxious.

In addition to Qin and Chunhua, there are two children in the family.

After He Mai gave the copper coin to He Lin, he looked at him all the way out of the door, and after not seeing He Lin's back, he went to the bamboo forest at the foot of the mountain to find Liulang, who was playing with bamboo rats.

It's winter now, and the bamboo forest is surrounded by a fence wrapped in cotton cloth, which can keep the bamboo rats in the bamboo forest warm.

Because of the previous "visit" of refugees, the bamboo rats did not live in peace in the bamboo forest. After the refugees were expelled from Xiaoqing Village, Rokuro found that there were more than half of the bamboo rats, and after counting, it was roughly estimated that there were about 30 fewer bamboo rats.

The business of sending bamboo rats to Tianyuan Restaurant has been cut off for two or three months, and the young couple of Hemai Liulang feel a little sorry for Song Cai. After all, it was agreed to send bamboo rats once a month, and this bamboo rat is also quite popular in the pastoral restaurant.

The couple was worried, but they were relieved by Song Caiban.

Song Caiban only told them that the world has been chaotic in the past few months, and the refugees have poured into Qinghe Town, and those days are very different and troublesome than before.

There are a lot fewer people who come to eat in the restaurant, who cares about the fact that the restaurant has more dishes and less dishes?

Hearing Song Caiban say this, Liulang also put his mind at ease. The two also discussed with Song Procurement, and when the spring ploughing time next year is over, the grain problem in the nearby ten miles and eight townships will be stabilized before the matter of sending bamboo rats.

After discussing the matter of bamboo rats with Song Caiban, He Mai asked about Song Qingqing again.

Since Song Qingqing was rescued from the hands of robbers a few years ago, he stayed at home for a few days before he went to the northern Xinjiang area with Chu Baishui.

The family's worries about Song Qingqing are self-evident, but at the same time, Song Caiban and his mother are more worried about Chu Baishui's identity.

was originally an ordinary Langzhong, where did he get the order to go to the north with the army?

Song Qingqing refused to reveal the words, but when he was leaving, he did not hesitate, and only told the old mother and brother not to worry, this attitude made the Song family more and more suspicious.

After Song Qingqing left, Song's mother cried every day, and Song Caiban felt uncomfortable, thinking of his sister's words and deeds before leaving, Song Caiban couldn't rest assured, thought of He Mai and Liulang, and wanted to ask them to inquire about the true origin of this Chu Baishui.

He Mai naturally knows nothing, but what Liulang knows, he can't say half a word in front of Song Caiban and He Mai.

Therefore, Liulang only promised Song Cai first, saying that he would be free after the end, and he would ask the relationship to inquire.

And today, it was also the day when he and Song Caiban agreed to go to the pastoral restaurant, but in the morning, Liulang was unusual, and he was not in a hurry to go to the town to catch up with work, nor did he mention the appointment to go to Song Caiban.

He Mai only thought that Rokuro had forgotten about it, so his pace quickened a little, and he hurriedly walked to the location of the bamboo forest.

Seeing that the bamboo forest was in front of him, He Mai saw two figures vaguely through the gap between the bamboo and trees.

The person with the blue cotton jacket on his upper body was Liulang, and the other person was dressed in black, and He Mai couldn't see his face clearly.

Although there was no one around, Rokuro was very cautious when he spoke to the man, and his voice was so low that he could not hear half a word of Hemai.

After a slight hesitation, Hemai walked up and saw that the person who was talking to Rokuro was a fresh face.

He Mai appeared, and Rokuro looked at him in unison with the man's gaze.

He Mai saw that Rokuro was still holding a letter in his hand, and the fire paint on the envelope was crossed, and it seemed that the letter had been opened.

The black-clothed man on the side had clear eyebrows, and when he saw He Mai, his body owed slightly, which was regarded as a gift.

"Hemai, why are you here?" Rokuro bent his eyebrows, didn't see a trace of surprise, and walked over to He Mai calmly and gently.

"I see that you have stayed in the bamboo forest for too long, and I am afraid that you have forgotten your agreement with Brother Song." After He Mai finished answering, he turned his gaze to the stranger, "Rokuro, this is ......"

"Oh, it's a messenger from the border gate," Liulang said in a clear voice, "I'll give you an answer to Brother Song's affairs in the next few days, so there's no need to worry." ”

He Mai listened to the first half of his sentence and was overjoyed, "Is it a letter sent by Zhong Meiren?" ”

"It was sent by the master," Rokuro looked at her with a smile, "Nan Mo good news, the news that the master passed on to us." ”

The joy on Hemai's face deepened, "That's! When the master comes out, he will definitely calm the world! ”

Liulang and the man in black both laughed, and the man said: "What Mrs. Sister-in-law said is very true, General Ma has been fighting on the battlefield for several years, and he is just a southern barbarian, how can he help his old man?" ”

He Mai smiled and said, "Yes! As soon as the master comes out, he guarantees that everything is solved! ”

Her head turned to the man in black again, and said with a slight smile: "Little brother has come all the way from the northern Xinjiang, the carriage and horses are tired, how many days to rest at home and then go back?" ”

The man in black bowed politely and replied softly: "There are more good intentions for my sister-in-law, but I don't bother my sister-in-law when it gets in the way." Recently, the war in the Southern Desert has been won, and there are still many letters on hand that have not been delivered, although the errand is hard, but the brothers are happy in their hearts and are willing to be more busy. ”

Rokuro said: "Then you have to have a meal at home before you can leave." ”

The man in black still refused, and after a while, He Mai and his wife had to give up.
