The crops in the village were saved.

Outside, however, the drought has changed completely.

"Alas, it is said that there is a plague in the village that goes down to the Hoard River today. Many people died, and the villages were sealed. Nowadays, no one dares to go out indiscriminately, and once someone in the village gets the plague, the whole village is sealed down."

"But no, our village won't go back to their parents' house until they have to."

"Alas, this is a plague. Those who have not suffered from the plague have sold their children. It is said that many people outside are now picking up their daughters-in-law. As long as you provide a little food at home, you can pick up some of it's the eldest daughter-in-law and the little girl. ”

The daughter-in-law can pick up the food as long as it is provided.

At this time, Li Hongmei deeply felt how much damage this natural disaster had brought to the ancient people.

The next day, because Qian Datong asked for a plan for the store, Li Hongmei also went to the city.

Looking at the depressed market, all kinds of shops that dozed off without business, Li Hongmei's eyebrows never relaxed.

Usually, the business of the Huang family store is so good.

But when I came here today, I found that there were only a few people.

Obviously, this time by the disaster, many people can only barely maintain food and clothing.

On the contrary, there were many people watching the business of the grain store in front. Seeing this scene, Li Hongmei's heart chuckled.

"Alas, this grain has risen again. In times of natural disasters, the grain increases more and more. ”

"No, everyone is worried that disaster will come, and there will be no food to eat. Our family members have to ask me to buy it, even if it's more expensive, we have to buy it. ”

Looking at this group of people in line, almost all of whom were dressed as domestic servants, Li Hongmei quickened her pace.

What was the most terrible thing about the disaster?

In fact, it is not terrible for disaster to befall, but it is the human heart that is most afraid.

Once people are flustered, the consequences are terrible.

Like now, grab food.

Rising food prices.

When I sold my children, I didn't have a pocket of food to buy. How can the people live on such a day?

If the imperial court does not do anything again, then it is very likely that the people who will revolt will happen.

That's what I think.

But I heard a loud shouting from someone in the distance.

"It's terrible, it's terrible.

Huang Shichu in Shunzi Village in front, someone turned against the sky. Those refugees stormed the government and robbed the people in the mansion. That official was also beheaded! ”

It's over, and the rebels are coming.

This time, Li Hongmei no longer had the heart to wander on the street.

When he arrived at Qian's house, Qian Datong was preparing to go far away.

When he saw her coming, he immediately grabbed her. "You come, you come, this piece is probably going to be messed up. You have a few chubby ones at home, so be careful. If the situation is not good, I will come to Hezhou, where I still have shops and industries. ”

It turned out to be an account. Li Hongmei remembered this situation.

"Okay, if I really can't stay any longer, I'll consider bringing Chubby to you. Are you bringing your siblings with you this time? ”

Qian Datong slapped his thigh, "This is also the reason why I am in a hurry to find you, so what, you take the agarwood to the mountains and let her live with you for a while." I'm not worried about her being here, and she's not too convenient. ”

When it comes to this, Qian Datong is still very embarrassed.

&nbs

p; He originally wanted to make do with Xiao Agarwood.

However, all of a sudden, so many things happened, and it was not appropriate to want to make alcohol. In this way, this matter has been put aside.

He has serious things to do now, and if he does it well, he will be the second-in-command of Sanhe City in the future.

If it can't be done, there is not much loss. But Xiao Agarwood can't be taken with you. Staying in one's own home, unjustifiable, and inappropriate. So, after thinking about it, I thought about sending people to Li Hongmei's side.

Li Hongmei raised her eyebrows, a little unhappy.

"I said Qian Datong, you will carry the burden when you leave, first your son entrusted my family. Now it's your future woman entrusting my home, where are you and me? Hospice? ”

"This"

"Datong, you go, I'll stay here. I'm a subordinate of the Qian Mansion, waiting here for you to come back. ”

At this moment, at the door, a woman's crisp voice suddenly sounded.

Li Hongmei was embarrassed when she heard this.

Actually, she was just thinking about the last time Qian Datong threatened her, and she felt uncomfortable at this moment, so she wanted to pinch this guy. But now, Xiao Agarwood directly pleaded his feelings and was willing to stay in the Qian family as a servant.

I have to say that this woman is a bit courageous.

"This agarwood, this is unfair to you. I'm afraid those people will say bad things about you. ”

Qian Datong didn't follow, and stepped forward to hold Xiao Agarwood's hand and anxiously persuaded him.

"Master, you don't have to embarrass me about this. In Agarwood's heart, I identified you. Why not just stay here in a different capacity for the time being? Actually, if it weren't for your kindness, master, Agarwood would have had an accident a long time ago. Even if it's really your servant, Agarwood doesn't care. ”

Qian Datong listened, and his heart was still very moved. In the end, he glared at Li Hongmei fiercely, "You woman, please do something, it's so troublesome." ”

Li Hongmei coughed, looked up at the sky, and ignored this guy. Whoever called, you are going to threaten me? I'll remember you for the rest of my life.

It was Xiao Agarwood, who gently tugged on Qian Datong's sleeve, "You too, Hongmei has done so much for you, and I am still troublesome for such a trivial matter, you are embarrassed!" ”

"Hehe, this, it's still fragrant in my house, not like some people, small-bellied chicken intestines."

Li Hongmei turned her head to look at the clouds, I won't care about you.

"Okay, I'm leaving, if you have something, you can discuss it."

Finally, Qian Datong left.

Xiao Shenxiang wiped her tears and invited Li Hongmei, "Hongmei, let's go into the house and sit down." ”

Li Hongmei thought about it, and walked in with this Qian Xiaopang's upcoming stepmother.

In fact, Li Hongmei and Qian Xiaopang are very curious about the beautiful woman that Qian Datong suddenly brought back.

Although Qian Xiaopang didn't say much about this woman, Li Hongmei was still worried.

"Hongmei, please come here, the master always says that you are very good, and you are also smart and clever, and always tell me to ask me to learn from you. You'll have to come and see me more often in the future. ”

Xiao Agarwood walked all the way, talking nicely.

Li Hongmei smiled faintly, "You have won the award, and I am just an ordinary peasant woman." Chubby is also treated like a brother by me. ”

Xiao Shenxiang was stunned for a moment, and then immediately looked at Li Hongmei's eyes, "I knew that you would tell me about that child." Actually, I'm a little embarrassed to tell you about this kind of thing now, and it's a little early. After all, I'm not Qian Datong's wife now. ”

Li Hongmei nodded, but pointed out again, "But such as."

If there is no accident, you will definitely be Qian Datong's new wife. At this point, Chubby also acquiesced. ”

"Hopefully. Since we've talked about it today, I can also give you a guarantee, Mrs. Zhao. If one day, I, Xiao Agarwood, really become a chubby mother, I will treat him as my own son. ”

Li Hongmei sneered, and somewhat carelessly plucked the flowers on the side.

"Mrs. Xiao, do you think I will believe it?"

Xiao Agarwood smiled astringently, and suddenly lifted his clothes.

"Look"

"Huh?"

When she saw the scar on Xiao Agarwood's stomach clearly, Li Hongmei was dumbfounded.

"This scar was cut by another man before I met my master. This scar not only made me almost die, but also made me unable to have children in the future. According to what the doctor said, even if you can give birth, the chances are pitiful. ”

This time, Li Hongmei was embarrassed.

She withdrew her eyes in embarrassment, "Well, I didn't know there was such a thing. ”

Xiao Agarwood looked at it, "So, I don't complain that you have doubts." After all, I would have doubted anyone who had told me that. ”

Li Hongmei stepped forward again and looked at the woman in front of her seriously.

I have to say that Xiao Agarwood is really beautiful.

That kind of grace, style, and elegance that is inadvertently revealed always makes people wonder how she can be an ordinary woman.

Xiao Agarwood heard the end, and her elegant and comfortable smile slowly bloomed. She got up sincerely, "Thank you, Mrs. Li, Agarwood will try to make contact with Xiaopang." ”

"Well, it's our family. To tell the truth, Mrs. Xiao, you are not like the jade of a small family, your elegance and nobility from the inside out are not something that ordinary people can raise. It is indeed very surprising that you want to marry Qian Datong. By the way, madam, your body is damaged, does Qian Datong know about it? ”

"You drink tea. This tea is said to come out of your house. I heard from the old man that your family also went outside to do tea merchant business. ”

In this era when women are concerned about childbirth.

Xiao Agarwood blew away the foam lightly.

Li Hongmei didn't ask any more, just drank tea.

If a woman is just good-looking, but she can't have children, that's a lot of choking.

Retracting her gaze, Li Hongmei gently sipped the tea soup.

This latter sentence can be regarded as a bit interesting.

Isn't this what Li Hongmei is worried about?

Li Hongmei's heart became heavy again

"That's what I admire about him. He knows, but he is still very kind to me, and he respects me very much, and he will not be like the man next to me, who has to give birth to other thoughts. I just wanted to stabilize and nothing else, without much thought. ”

Li Hongmei nodded, and was about to leave.

"Recently, the world has not been too stable, and my wife must also pay attention to one or two things that my lord ordered. Look out here, I'm afraid it's going to be messy."

Now, it's garbled again.

"That's okay, looking at Mrs. Xiao like this, she is also a cool person, if you don't feel comfortable living here, you can come to our house to live. When the time comes, Chubby will be on vacation, and it is estimated that he will be at home. You mother and son can also promote some feelings for each other. Some feelings, maybe a little earlier, it's still better. Chubby, on the surface, everything doesn't matter. But in fact, he is a child-like and extremely sensitive to everything, especially family affection. Hopefully, you can walk into his heart. ”

It's going to be messy.

Xiao Agarwood interjected.
