Chapter 61: Mission
Xiao Ayu received the sugar gourd for the first time, and she was as happy as something. "Grandma, you eat first." Xiao Ayu held the sugar gourd in front of Mrs. Wang.
"Grandma doesn't like to eat sugar, you can eat it."
Xiao Ayu handed the sugar gourd to Village Chief Hu again: "Grandpa Village Chief, do you want to eat it?" ”
"I don't like to eat either, the village chief's grandfather is old, and only a well-behaved doll like you likes to eat." Village Chief Hu said with a smile.
Xiao Ayu was still reluctant to eat first, so she took the sugar gourd and asked.
The people of Hujia Village were naturally reluctant to snatch the child's stuttering, and they all shook their heads and smiled and said that they would not eat it.
Xiao Ayu just gnawed and ate it, the first bite went down, it was so sweet that her eyes were crooked, and when she took another bite, the hawthorn melted in her mouth.
"Ah, it's so sour!" Xiao Ayu covered her cheeks, so sour that tears came down.
At this moment, Xiao Ayu looked at the remaining string of sugar gourds in her hand, and there was no happiness in her eyes.
There was even a little fear, oh my God, there were so many sour fruits, she couldn't finish eating them.
No wonder adults don't like to eat it, such a sour fruit, the teeth will be soured off!
Everyone looked at her little appearance, and they couldn't help laughing.
In the evening, everyone did not dare to leave their original positions, for fear of having to queue up again.
All the villagers who came to your mother rested on the spot.
Is the night in early spring also cold, but fortunately, everyone squeezes me, I squeeze you, and I can make up a little warmth.
The villagers unloaded the cart and used it as a hard bed, and two people squeezed a cart to sleep.
There are a total of four carts, which can sleep eight people, and the remaining few people simply put the basket upside down and put it together, and barely lie on it to sleep.
Xiao Ayu also lay on the cart, snuggled up to Mrs. Wang, pointed to the stars in the sky and asked, "Grandma, what kind of star is that?" ”
"That's it, it's Vega, in a few hours, there will be a morning glory star that will slowly rise, and there is a very beautiful story between them...... "Mrs. Wang told Xiao Ayu the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl on the stars in the sky.
Mrs. Wang's storytelling is not as dry as ordinary people, she will even tell the original story more fully, not to mention Xiao Ayu, even the other villagers around are fascinated by it.
Xiao Ayu listened to it, closed her eyes and fell asleep, and the old lady Wang hugged her to her side again, and whispered to her, "Good child, sleep in peace." ”
Mrs. Wang's gaze was extremely gentle, she seemed to be looking at Xiao Ayu, and it seemed that she was seeing other people through her.
No one noticed that on the roof of the county government not far away, a young man sat quietly, watching the quiet scene below.
Without blinking, he looked at the sleeping little man, as if he was envious of her sweet sleeping face, and suddenly yawned.
"Childe, you're sleepy, let's go back." Red armor suddenly appeared beside him.
"Hmm."
Qin Huai, under the leadership of Chijia, flew into a certain courtyard behind the county government and did not alarm anyone.
The next day, the villagers of Hujia Village finally received the grain, and they not only filled four carts and several baskets, but also had more than 20 bags.
It can make some village people jealous.
It seems like a lot, but you must know that there are more than 700 people in their village waiting to eat and plant, and this little food is still not enough.
Cao County Lieutenant directly brought out a few officials, followed by a donkey cart.
"I have a meritorious service in protecting Lord Qincha before you, and this time I will give you a special grace, and this donkey cart will be lent to you for the time being." Cao County Lieutenant said with a glance, "These officials will go back to Hujia Village with you, and they will drive the donkey cart back." ”
When the people from the other surrounding villages heard this, they suddenly realized, no wonder they seemed to have a lot more food, it turned out that they had saved Lord Qincha!
What a good official that Lord Qincha is, since he came, there have been a lot less things for the people in Yongding County, at least on the surface, those squires and rich families did not dare to oppress the villagers anymore.
Some people from other villages smiled and said to the people of Hujia Village: "You have accumulated great merits, if you hadn't saved Lord Qincha in time, maybe we wouldn't have been able to get this food now!" ”
"But it's not, it's all after Lord Qincha took office and drove out the corrupt officials, and we only knew that there was disaster relief food!"
"I've heard that Lord Chincha was hunted down and killed before, because someone knows—" The villager could finish his sentence before he was covered by the others around him.
"I don't want to die, I'll say anything! Don't talk nonsense here about those who usually listen to it, there are many people, and when the time comes, people say that you slander and spread rumors, I think you can't eat and walk around! ”
The people of Hujia Village didn't go, they listened carefully to what they said, and they had to hurry back to send the grain, which would take several hours on the way, and who knew what would happen.
They are too poor in Yongding County, and it is precisely because they are too poor that there are bandits here.
Fortunately, there were officials and messengers following, and they had a bottom in their hearts.
The cart was already full of grain, and it was tightly wrapped with ropes, and the villagers left a place in the middle for Xiao Ayu.
Now, Xiao Ayu can sit in the small nest in the middle.
[Bao, remember when I told you I had a mission? 】
[Now the mission condition is triggered!] You go! 】
Xiao Ayu had just climbed into the cart and sat down, when she suddenly heard the sound of dumplings.
