Chapter 352: Refugees Flood In

"Really? Sister? ”

"Well, really, it's okay now, you go play, and after the list is released, let's go to the royal capital to visit Mr. Ouyang."

After Yun Xiu got Yun Niang's affirmation, he opened a bright smile and said.

"Yes, then Yun Xiu went to find Huzi and them."

After Yun Niang nodded, Yun Xiu went out.

"Second sister, did you really decide to go to the royal capital?"

"Yes, Brother Yang, although we don't know what happened now, there will be the situation mentioned in the letter, but Mr. Ouyang is Yun Xiu's gentleman, and he will never harm Yun Xiu."

"Besides, we can't stay in this place for the rest of our lives, we have to go outside to see it, so that Yun Xiu can go higher and farther."

After Yun Xiu left, Yun Niang slowly stood up and said such words to the entrance of the village, so that Yun Yang understood Yun Niang's thoughts.

"Okay, then wait for September 15, let's go to the royal capital for this trip."

Yun Niang didn't know that because of today's decision, she missed the best time to leave, so that so many things would happen later.

As the nights get shorter and shorter, exposing the whole village to the sun, the river dries up, exposing the pebbles at the bottom and draining the wells.

It turned into a dry well that stood in the sun, revealing yellow soil.

Then came the panic and fear of the villagers, as people in the village had already begun to starve to death.

The second dog's daughter-in-law held the child who had no breath in her hands, and she was dry and flat like a weak kitten, and her small face sank down, revealing big eyes that did not belong to children.

If you wait for people to look closer, you will know that it is not the child's eyes that are big, but the child in the hands of the second dog's daughter-in-law is already hungry and only bones remain.

The eye sockets on the skull are exposed, and it looks like a child with big eyes?

"Ahh No, no, our children. ”

As soon as it was daylight, a woman's scream came from the village, breaking the rare silence in the village, and waking everyone who heard the sound was awakened by the sound.

The villagers opened their eyes in a daze, listened to the sound of piercing their eardrums, quickly put on their shoes and ran out of the door, running towards the source of the sound.

By the time the courtyard not far from the big tree at the head of the village was already crowded, everyone squeezed in to see what was going on and whether someone had stolen it.

They all rushed over with hoes and sticks in their hands!

More than one person thought so, basically all the villagers thought so, and they all wanted to run to see if they could help in any way.

When a group of black and thin old and young masters rushed to Wang Ergou's house with hoes, they saw the above scene.

They all looked at the two dog daughters-in-law who were crying with their dead babies in their arms.

During this time, several families in the village had been robbed, and the only food and money left in the house were stolen, leaving not a single grain to eat.

The people in the village were deeply disgusted, and they wished they could catch those thieves and kill them one by one.

At this time, isn't stealing people's food and silver money cut off people's lives?

How many people can leave food at this time? That house is not hidden and kept alive.

Even if there is money, it is impossible to buy food now, and after the water in the well began to decrease, the grain shops in the county town closed their doors one by one.

Even if there are one or two rice shops that have been opened, the price of grain is frighteningly high, almost one or two gold and a pound of grain.

Even so, there are many people who buy it one after another, but such ordinary people can't afford to pay such a high amount of silver.

So much so that now there are a lot of beggars and three-handed people of unknown origin in the county.

Even the arrest in the county government could not suppress the number of refugees, and the county order had no choice but to close the county gate, and only allowed to go out, not enter.

After all, when the beggars and refugees came in, they all began to rob the county of food, and injured several people in a row in order to eat a mouthful of food.

made the people of the whole county panic, and the county order was a last resort, but it was really impossible for him to see so many people being turned away and dying in his jurisdiction, so he had to write a few official documents in a row, so that the rich people in the county began to collect food and come out.

Set up a tent outside the prefecture to give porridge.

But there is no way to go on like this, at the beginning there were not many people outside the county, only a few dozen, but I don't know what's going on, starting from the soup kitchen, the number of people outside the county has increased several times for a while.

And they are all people who are dressed in tatters and black, and there is no good place on the whole body, which makes people in and outside the county shocked.

These people looked like they had traveled a long way, and you could tell from the clothes and feet on their bodies that they had changed shape after countless frictions.

When Liu Xianling got the news, of course, he also guessed the seriousness of the matter, and immediately called the people in the yamen to repair the book overnight and report it.

But half a month has passed, and Liu County Ling has not received an order from above, so he has to be shocked in his heart.

It seems that this day has really changed, even the people from other state cities have actually arrived in Qingshui County, and they still look like that, it seems that this drought has reached an irreparable moment.

It was also during this period of time that the displaced people from other places began to enter several villages such as Wang Village, which made the villagers in the village look at them strangely.

After hearing about the situation from the other party's clothes and inquiring, the people in the village realized that other places had also suffered from the same severe drought as Qingshui County, and there was no harvest this year.

So in order to survive, they had to leave their hometown and come here to beg for food.

I thought that Qingshui County was located in a remote area, surrounded by green mountains, and it would not be the same as other places, and there would be no harvest of grain and water in the drought.

Let the refugees from afar cry bitterly.

After this incident, the people in the village were even more panicked, and they didn't dare to come forward to talk to strangers in the village.

Over the next few days, a family in the village was broken into the house by hungry and crazy homeless people, wounding the adults and robbing the house of what little food it had.

As a result, the people in the village began to hate the refugees who came into the village, and they no longer enthusiastically came forward to speak and sympathize with them.

Early this morning, the people in the village heard the crying and screaming of Wang Ergou's daughter-in-law, and thought that another refugee had run into the village to steal things and hurt people, so they would take all the guys in the house with them when they went out.

But when they saw the appearance of the second dog's daughter-in-law, they knew that they wanted to fork in.

Looking at the stiffness and appearance of the child's body, it should have been dead for a long time, and I don't know how the two dog daughters-in-law raised the baby, and how they found out that the child had died when the children became like this.

But they are thinking that Wang Ergou was conscripted for military service, and only the second dog's daughter-in-law was left alone with a child at home.

The older generation of people are stunned when they see such a scene, have they seen less such scenes before?

This happens all the time!

"Ergou daughter-in-law, you put the child down quickly, let us see if the child is okay. Don't you do that, okay? ”
