In this year's severe drought, Lintong, Weinan, Lantian, Huxian, Xianyang, Jingyang, and Gaoling around Xi'an Prefecture have been affected to varying degrees, but the disaster is less severe than those in the counties under the rule of Qing'an Prefecture and Gongchang Prefecture. Moreover, there are salt wells in Lintong, and Weinan is the only place to pass through the northwest to Kyoto, and both prefectures have a tradition of doing business. Although there is a disaster this year, for the big families in the two counties, life is still comfortable and normal.

At that time, serious and innocent people paid attention to "farming, reading and passing on the generations", and Fu Tingyun's uncle was no exception. After making money in business, I thought of a way to buy a land and a house. So in addition to being the richest man in Weinan, he is also the largest landlord in Fengyuan.

Seeing that refugees were fleeing one after another, Fu Tingyun's uncle not only donated grain money to the county government with several other wealthy families in Weinan, but also set up a porridge shed in his hometown of Fengyuan to resettle the displaced people.

But not everyone will be grateful.

Especially those who have long been hungry and have green eyes, and only know that they can survive with food.

Such a good deed has become a sharp blade hanging over the heads of everyone in the Xie family - taking advantage of the darkness, a group of homeless people rushed into the Xie family, killed people when they saw them, robbed them when they saw them, and finally lit a fire...... The sky-high flames reflected half the sky!

Fu Tingyun's eyes were red, and his round hands were clenched into fists. She glared at the young man and asked, "What about my uncle......"

Before she finished speaking, she was dragged behind by Zhao Jiuye: "This son, what happened to Master Xie?" ”

The fire in the sky two nights ago seemed to be vividly imprinted in the memories of the two teenagers, one of them listened with moist eyes, and the other choked up about the cause and effect, and did not notice Fu Tingyun's strange appearance at all.

"The entire Xie family was burned to ashes," the young man's tears couldn't help falling, he covered his face with his sleeves, as if he couldn't bear to think of the scene at that time, "The Xie family lives in Fengyuan, and since the old lady's generation, they have built bridges and paved roads, and done good deeds in the township, but they never thought that they would end up like this......"

There was silence inside and outside the wooden fence, only Fu Tingyun's cry was getting louder and louder!

Ah Sen had red eyes, ran over and pulled the corner of Fu Tingyun's clothes: "Girl, girl, don't cry......" wanted to comfort her, but didn't know what to say, and looked at Zhao Jiuye with a blank eye.

Zhao Jiuye's face became more and more gloomy, and he stood there with his hands on his hips, looking full of anger but unable to bear it.

Assen even more does not know how to be good!

There was a commotion in the wooden fence, and seven or eight young men of medium stature and men in their thirties, dressed in royal blue plain cocoon silk, walked towards this direction.

"What's going on?" He shouted loudly, full of breath, and his tone was stern, revealing a bit of majesty.

The people patrolling in front of the wooden fence saluted one after another, respectfully shouting "Seven Masters" to make a way.

The two teenagers were already shouting loudly "Uncle Seven" through the wooden fence.

The man who was respectfully called the "Seventh Master" walked to the wooden fence and looked at it, and immediately showed joy: "Ah Bao, Ah Ci, why are you?" Then he thought of something, and his face sank, "What about Sister Eleven?" Who else in the family escaped? His eyes fell on Fu Tingyun, who was crying on the side, and motioned to those who were patrolling to open the wooden fence.

Two teenagers saluted the seventh master through the wooden fence, and one of them told the situation at home: "...... These homeless people are cruel and tyrannical, and even the Xie family has suffered such an unjustified disaster. My grandmother was afraid that the homeless people would rush into our house, so she led us to join my uncle overnight......"

As he spoke, the two men in their prime had joined forces to push the wooden fence open.

The seventh master walked out and instructed an old man with a goatee next to him to arrange for a carriage and horse to pick up people, and then patted the shoulders of the two teenagers, and said with relief: "I haven't seen you for a few years, Ah Bao and Ah Ci have grown up, and they know that they are worried about their families." ”

The two teenagers saluted abruptly, and the one wearing the green head said, "I'll also go with Steward Cheng - help lead the way." ”

The seventh master smiled and nodded, and the satisfaction in his eyes was even greater.

The one wearing the blue lotus color also said: "I'll go too!" ”

"It's good!" The Seventh Master smiled, his eyes fell on Fu Tingyun and the others again, and he muttered, "These people are ......"

Wearing Tuo Touqing hurriedly said: "I met it just now, saying that it is a relative of Master Xie, and his family has been affected by a disaster, so he came to defect." ”

The seventh master looked at the three of them quietly, and said in a steady voice: "I reconcile that the old man is a neighbor, and he also has some business dealings. I don't know where you're from? ”

Huayin Fu has some thin names in this surrounding area and even in Shaanxi, no matter whether the words of the seventh master are true or false, it must not be said that he came from Huayin. Otherwise, these seven masters will be exposed if they inquire a little.

What relatives does the Xie family have, how does Zhao Jiuye know?

He glanced at Fu Tingyun.

When my uncle died, he was burned to death by the exiles who had received his favor, and he did not even leave a whole corpse...... And my aunt, every time she went to Fengyuan, she would happily hold her in her arms, and repeatedly ordered the stove to do this and that, as if she hadn't eaten all the way...... The eldest cousin is gentle and virtuous, the two sons are very well taught, enlightened at the age of three, and the five-year-old "Kindergarten Learning" can be catchy...... The second cousin-in-law is lively and cheerful, and she is the most in love, whether it is to harvest wheat and boil wheat candy or make peaches to make dried peaches, never forget to give her a taste, but it is a pity that she has no children for three years after marrying into the Xie family, and her aunt went to Huashan to worship the Buddha for this purpose, and the good news just came out a few days ago...... It's all gone, a fire, it's all gone......

Just for food, for the sake of their own survival, they will hurt the lives of others...... How can those people be so selfish? Such a shamelessness?

She gritted her teeth so hard that her heart hurt so much that she couldn't help herself, leaning on the cart, tears falling like rain, no amount of sadness could fill the empty corner of her heart.

Fu Tingyun wiped her tears with the back of her hand, and her sleeves hung down, revealing the back of her white and delicate hand like beautiful jade.

Zhao Jiuye sighed secretly and saluted to the seventh master: "We are from Pingliang." This is our young lady, our family has been affected, and we want to come to the uncle. Who knew that there were robbers on the road, and only I escaped with the escort of our young lady. I don't know what kind of relatives Master Xie and our master are. It's just that I heard our wife say that when the old man Xie was doing business, our master had borrowed a sum of silver to turn over, although it was later repaid, but if there was no silver from our master, the business of the master Xie would not be as big as it is now! ”

This kind of thing is common in people who do business, not to mention that when Master Xie made his fortune, his brother-in-law had not yet been a jinshi, although the Fu family has a reputation, but the kind of big family is the most rules-oriented, and they will definitely not take the money from the public school to help their relatives in a room...... The Seventh Master thought to himself, and believed Zhao Jiuye's words a little; Looking at Fu Tingyun again, she cried heartbroken, not like a pretend, on such a hot day, she could still abide by the rules when she was dressed, and the back of her exposed hand was delicate and smooth, not a hand that did rough work, and I believed it a little.

He comforted Fu Tingyun: "Miss's Day mourning changes!" ”

Fu Tingyun endured his grief and saluted.

When he got up, he inadvertently raised his head, revealing a snow-white face, and a pair of red and swollen eyes that wept, like plum blossoms falling on the snow, elegant and delicate.

The Seventh Master palpitated in his heart.

I didn't expect this woman to be so beautiful. It's a pity that in this troubled world, I was lonely and had no one to rely on, and I left here, just afraid that it would be difficult to escape the fate of the red dust drifting and crushing into mud!

Thinking of this, the seventh master suddenly gave birth to a cow and chewed peonies, and the regret came - there are all hungry and crazy untouchables outside, where do you know that this kind of ladies are good!

An inexplicable sadness surged in his chest, and he blurted out the words "If the girl doesn't dislike it, it's better to settle down in Li's house".

Everyone was stunned, including the Seventh Master himself.

How can you say such frivolous words?

He secretly regretted it.

He was appointed by the elders of the family to preside over the affairs here, and if it was a weekday, it was nothing to take in a few people. But now the drought is serious, seeing that there is no harvest this year, and I don't know what the harvest will be next year, Li Jiawa's families will take out all the stored grain, and he will distribute it uniformly according to the number of people. These three people have nothing to do with Li Jiawa, so how should he explain to the people in the clan at that time? But now that he has spoken, if he can't do it, then what has become of him?

Or, take out your own food to help them?

His gaze swirled around Zhao Jiuye and Ah Sen.

These two people are okay to say.

A man who is emaciated but has tall bones, as long as he is well fed and drunk, must be a good laborer with great strength; Although the other is young, he has a flexible eye, and he is quite alert at first glance, and he is a personal servant. What's more, these two people were able to escort the young lady from Pingliang, six or seven hundred miles away, to Weinan safely in the event of the death of the main family, which shows that they not only have some skills, but also are loyal and righteous people. Such two people, as long as they help them get through the difficulties in front of them, they will definitely be good slaves who can take charge of themselves in the future.

It's just that this woman is not easy to do!

If his appearance is ordinary, it is easy to say, such a flower and moon appearance, even if he is open in his heart, he just has pity and wants to help, but he can't resist the random speculation of those good deeds...... It's a pity that several nephews of the right age are married, otherwise, finding a family to marry her can be regarded as helping her!

The seventh master had a splitting headache.

Fu Tingyun looked at Zhao Jiuye blankly.

Settle in Li's house?

She and Li Jiawa's people are not related, why did she settle down in Li Jiawa?

But she couldn't join her family, and she couldn't go back to Huayin...... is a nameless person who can't stand scrutiny, although the world is big, where is her place?

Because of Zhao Jiuye's send-off all the way, she was able not to starve to death, and she was able to arrive in Weinan unscathed, and unconsciously, Zhao Jiuye has become the most trustworthy and reliable person in her mind.

At this time, she hopes that he can help her with an idea!
