Village Chief Zhao was sad and tearful, "The people in our village have also lost more than half, and I don't feel good about it." I watched as my youngest son was knocked unconscious by the bandits and taken away, but I was powerless to save him.

Now I can't advance or retreat, so I want to find a hidden place to hide along the Dadu River. The climate here is similar to that in the south, and we can survive by cultivating land here. I don't know if Brother Li doesn't have such thoughts?

If there is, let's put aside our old suspicions, unite and find a place to live. After all, there are not many people left, and they can't risk tossing anymore. ”

Village Chief Li and Liu Paner were both stunned, what they thought of, Village Chief Zhao and Village Chief Liu both thought of.

There are now 163 men, women, and children in Lijia Village, and there are only a few hundred and 00 people in Liujia Village, and the largest number of people is Zhaojia Village.

"Why don't you go back first and find a place to settle down, I see that the weather is a little cloudy, it may rain, if you don't prepare in time, adults and children may have to rain." Village Chief Li did not respond immediately, but chose to think about it.

After all, the village is a major matter, and it must be discussed with the villagers, especially Liu Paner, who has the ability, and his old mother, who cannot make a decision easily.

Village Chief Zhao looked anxious and wanted to settle down as soon as possible, "Brother Li Xian, don't worry that many people in our village will bully you. To tell you nothing, the reason why I want to cooperate with you is because there are capable people in your village. ”

After Village Chief Zhao finished speaking, he looked at Liu Pan'er, who was standing not far away.

Liu Pan'er was stunned for a moment and pointed at herself, "I killed the people in your village, you cooperate with us, and the people in your village agree?" Those who have a good relationship with Zhao Shishi's father and son must hate me. ”

When Village Chief Zhao heard this, he waved his hand again and again, "Yuanqing's daughter-in-law, don't think about it. If you kill the rest of our village, I'm not comfortable.

But the father and son of the Zhao family sometimes steal even the people and things in our village, and we are also annoyed. It's just because the four of them, father and son, are all men in the prime of life, and they can still make some efforts on the way to escape from the wilderness, so they acquiesced.

They have done such evil deeds, and you deserve to take revenge. I promise you, if we merge together, and there are people in Zhaojia Village who are dissatisfied with you, I will personally slap him in the mouth. However, I think they are too scared to bother you at all. ”

"That's fine. This matter is not something that can be settled now, we also need to discuss it, and you should also go and talk to the people in the village. Liu Paner did not immediately agree, nor did she refuse.

Seeing that Liu Paner did not refuse, Village Chief Zhao and Village Chief Liu also knew that this matter could not be decided at once. More people still want to cross the river.

"Okay, think about it." Village Chief Zhao replied that they didn't have money anyway, and even if they did, it wouldn't be enough for the family, so they couldn't leave their families behind.

But someone did it!

"Father-in-law and mother-in-law, Yuan Gong, please don't leave me and my two daughters behind." Liu tugged at her husband's sleeve, tears streaming down her face, her eyes desperate.

Fleeing all the way, tired and crying, her eldest daughter-in-law, who did not give birth to a son, was even more miserable, and even had to work with her two daughters who were just ten years old, with little rest.

Now crossing the river, the family only has ten taels of silver, and the father-in-law and sister-in-law take her husband and a family of four in the second room on a boat.

Li Yingniang pushed Liu away and dragged her eldest brother Li Yuangong onto the boat, "There are only two taels of silver left, if you can let go of your two daughters, then you can come up." ”

The two daughters behind Liu were full of horror, the dolls were crying, and their parents didn't want them anymore.

When Liu heard this, he was taken aback, "No, no, they are still young, and if they stay, they will die." Isn't there still two taels of silver? Let Ah Fang and Ah Li get on the boat, I will stay, it doesn't matter if I die, Yuan Gong, you must take care of your two daughters. ”

Li Yuangong's face was embarrassed, "Daddy, or ······"

Mrs. Li was bleeding distressedly, and she was about to lose her breath, and there were actually thirteen taels of silver at home, but they didn't have much food. After arriving in the south, you have to eat, drink, and settle down, and you need money everywhere.

Therefore, after discussing with the old man, she decided not to take Liu and the two girls. As for the eldest son without a daughter-in-law, it doesn't matter, when the eldest son marries another daughter-in-law in the future, he can have a few more grandchildren.

"Are you going to leave?" The officials scolded, impatient, and the same drama was often staged.

There are so many unrighteous people that they can't sympathize.

Li Yingniang kept dragging her eldest brother back, and looked at Liu viciously, "You are useless, you have given birth to two girls in so many years, my brother is good to you, you should be grateful to Dade." There are only two taels of silver left in the family, and when they go to the south, they have no money and are not easy to settle down. ”

Liu struggled and wanted to rush over, "Take the child away, Daddy, take Afang Ali away······"

Li Yuangong's face couldn't bear it, but he was pulled by his sister and walked to the boat. I wanted to speak, but I was glared at by my mother again, shrunk my head, and got on the boat.

Liu looked at his relatives who were getting farther and farther away, sad from his heart, sitting on the ground and crying, Ali and Ah Fang knelt beside their mother, hugging their mother and crying.

At this moment, the mother and daughter all knew that they had been abandoned.

Some ill-intentioned men were angry, "This lady, I am handsome, follow me, I can make your mother and daughter eat and drink enough." ”

"Erlaizi, everything you eat is stolen from everywhere, where is the food to feed the three of this mother and daughter? You're trying to kidnap them and exchange them for food, right? ”

Listening to the ill-intentioned conversations around them, Liu and his two daughters trembled with fear.

At this moment, Village Chief Li and a few people heard Liu's cry, thinking that someone was bullying the people of Lijia Village, so they hurried over to take a look.

"Yuangong daughter-in-law, why are you sitting on the ground? Who bullied you mother and daughter? Hey, what about your man, your parents-in-law? Zhou Cuihua hurriedly asked, squatting down and pulling up Li Li and Li Fang, who were about to cry, and gently patting the dust on their bodies.

Liu couldn't cry and couldn't speak.

Li Fang gritted her teeth and said to Zhou Cuihua: "Village chief and grandmother, my grandmother and my father's aunt and second uncle's family got on the boat and left our mother and wife behind. ”

When Zhou Cuihua heard this, she was dumbfounded, looked up, and saw that on the ship that had just left the shore, Old Man Li and Mrs. Li were on it.

"Bastard, something that is inferior to beasts, even family members can be left behind!" Village Chief Li stomped his feet and scolded bitterly, but if you think about it carefully, this old man Li's thin and cool temperament can indeed do such a thing.

"Liu, the man abandoned you, but you still have two daughters, you have to cheer up." Zhou Cuihua enlightened Liu, "Ali, Ah Fang, you hurry up and help your mother, the people in our village are over there." ”

Liu Shi was stunned for a moment, and said while crying: "We have nothing but a few torn clothes, and if we go with you, it will only drag you down." ”
