Mo Xuelian nodded after hearing this, and the two walked forward again, and after walking for a while, the two walked to a small river, Qin Xuanlong and Mo Xuelian both drank some water, Qin Xuanlong gave Mo Xuelian some medicine to her eyes, rested for a while, and the two continued to walk forward along the river.

They walked for a long time, and when they saw a village by the river, some of the villagers were washing their clothes by the river, some were still frolicking in the river, and when several women saw two strangers who suddenly appeared, all looked at them.

The children also stopped playing, and Qin Xuanlong helped Mo Xuelian to walk towards the women: "Eldest sister, where is this?

A woman put down the wooden stick in her hand to wash clothes, looked at the clothes of the two of them, and then looked at Mo Xuelian's appearance: "Where did you come from? We are still more than a hundred miles away from Anping City, I think you seem to have fled the famine, right?"

As soon as Qin Xuanlong heard that he had fled the famine, he was looking at the clothes on himself and Mo Xuelian, Qin Xuanlong Wuer smiled, he and Mo Xuelian really seemed to have escaped from the famine, and now the clothes on himself and Mo Xuelian were tattered Mo Xuelian was still holding a stick, and her hair was also unkempt.

"Yes, eldest sister, our hometown is suffering from drought, and I can't help but take my sister out to join my relatives in Anping City. Qin Xuanlong echoed the eldest sister's question, otherwise he wouldn't know how to answer.

As soon as the women saw that the two brothers and sisters were also miserable people, and they did not look like bad people, they talked more, and they were not as hostile as when they first met, and the women began to be enthusiastic.

"I see you haven't eaten yet, right? You must be tired all the way, right? We are here, it's called Shanren Village, you won't starve when you get here, let's go, I'll take you to meet our village chief." ”

Qin Xuanlong smiled a little embarrassedly after hearing this: "No need, we are just passing by, we will leave after eating, so we don't need to see the village chief." ”

A woman smiled even more politely after hearing this: "You don't have to be polite, the reason why we are called Shanren Village is because we have a good village chief, as long as we have any needs, the village chief will help, we have also come here to escape the famine before, our village chief not only takes care of food and housing, but also gives some silver taels when you leave, since you have come here, you will not see our village chief, the village chief will be unhappy." ”

A few women, you said word by word, Qin Xuanlong saw that these people were so enthusiastic, it was not easy to refuse, and besides, he and Mo Xuelian were indeed hungry, and there was nowhere to go. If he really gave him some silver taels when he left, it would have helped him a lot, so he went into the village with these women half-pushed.

While walking towards the village, the women introduced the situation in the village: "Our village chief's surname is Zhang, who used to do silk business in other places, and did a lot of business, but later he earned enough money and came back, and he has a very high prestige in the village, and is a well-known good man. ”

Not long after they left, several women led Qin Xuanlong and Mo Xuelian to the gate of a tall compound in the center of the village, and the women walked into the village chief's house with a smile and began to shout: "Is the village chief here?" ”

Two people in the courtyard who were sweeping the yard, one looked at the people, and then saw that there were strangers, hurriedly ran into the backyard to report the news, and soon after, a middle-aged man walked out, looking kind and kind, and immediately greeted him with a smile when he saw so many people coming to him.

"Aunt Li, you are here, what are you looking for me? Who are these two people?" Village Chief Zhang saw Qin Xuanlong and Mo Xuelian, and he looked at them with his eyes when he asked.

Aunt Li explained to the village chief with a smile: "Village chief, these two people came here after fleeing the famine, and I heard them say that they went to Anping City, passing by us, it seems that they are very hungry, and they should not have eaten yet, no, I will bring them to you?"

This village chief Zhang looked at the two of them, and his eyes were full of smiles: "Oh, it turned out that I was going to Anping City, then come in, there are leftovers in my kitchen, you are hungry, just come with me." After speaking, he took Qin Xuanlong and Mo Xuelian to the backyard, and several women saw that the village chief had taken people away, so they all said goodbye to the village chief and dispersed.

Village Chief Zhang took Qin Xuanlong and Mo Xuelian to a house, he stretched out his hand to push the door and entered, Qin Xuanlong looked at it, this seemed to be the place where the people lived here, Village Chief Zhang looked at them: "You take a rest here first, I'll ask someone to bring you something to eat." After speaking, he walked out, and Qin Xuanlong hurriedly thanked him.

Not long after Village Chief Zhang left, a subordinate holding a wooden disc walked in, Qin Xuanlong saw that there were two dishes, six steamed buns, and two bowls of soup on the wooden disc, and after the subordinate placed these things, he quietly went down again.

Qin Xuanlong and Mo Xuelian were already hungry, and after they saw the people leaving, they devoured them, and not long after Qin Xuanlong finished eating, a subordinate walked in and collected the dishes and chopsticks, brought a few clean clothes, and brought a large wooden basin to look at them enthusiastically.

"Two, this is your clothes, you can change into them after taking a shower in a moment. After saying this, the servant went away again, and after a short time, he poured water into a large wooden basin for them to bathe.

Qin Xuanlong asked Mo Xuelian to wash first, and he stood at the door to rest, he looked at the huge courtyard, and there was still a trace of warmth in his heart, after the two of them finished washing, they rested in the house.

The time was very fast, it was time for dinner in the afternoon, and the village chief Zhang walked in with two subordinates, the subordinates held the food in their hands, and as soon as they entered the house, the village chief looked at them with a smile: "How are you resting?"

After hearing this, Qin Xuanlong hurriedly stood up and bowed: "You have a good rest, thank you Village Chief Zhang." Mo Xuelian also stood up and thanked her.

Village Chief Zhang was taken aback when he saw Qin Xuanlong and Mo Xuelian who had changed into clothes, when these two people first came, they were gray-faced, dirty and tattered, but they didn't expect this washing, changing clothes, just like a different person.

Village Chief Zhang looked at Qin Xuanlong, a talent, looking at Mo Xuelian, although he was blind and had a white cloth on his eyes, he could also see that this was also a beauty, and it was extremely beautiful.

Village Chief Zhang looked at Qin Xuanlong looking at Mo Xuelian and nodded and smiled: "This is a side room, and it is still a little cold at night, so let's go to the main room and live, it is better there than here." ”
