Seeing that they were silent and silent, Yao Nian knew in his heart.

The place in Taoyang was already poor, even if there were rich people, they left first, how could they follow them to escape from the famine?

Thinking of this, Yao Nian sighed, she also had some bits and pieces of silver in her hand, but it was too far from a hundred taels.

"I have ten taels of silver here, everyone has as much as they have, let's get together first." Yao Nian took the lead in taking out the silver and got up.

She took it all, and everyone hesitated for a moment and took out the silver and copper coins they had accumulated.

Coming and going, there are only about 20 taels in total.

Yao Nian was still afraid that he had counted wrongly, so he counted it over and over again, and the oil on his fingertips that were stained with copper coins was still not a penny.

She sighed and asked again, "Isn't it?" "

Everyone shook their heads with gloomy faces.

"I have twenty taels." Chen Qian walked over and handed a black purse to Yao Nian, "That's all, when we set off, all the silver was exchanged for food, so I kept this silver for emergencies." ”

More than forty taels, it's still not enough.

"It's still not enough." Yao Nianchou's head hurts, the village chief said that she can't be cheap, and she can't go to bargain with people, right?

For a while, everyone was silent.

Xue Baolian stood at the door of the tent from a distance and looked at them, turned her head and said to Bai Zhi, "Bai Zhi, you go and bring my jewelry, you should be able to exchange some money." ”

"Miss, your jewelry is all given by the county guard, and you treasure it very much....." Bai Zhi stood still, a little reluctant.

Those jewelry ladies are usually reluctant to wear, they are all wiped and wiped.

Xue Baolian was also very reluctant in her heart, but there was no way at the moment, if they didn't make up enough for a hundred taels of silver, they would be driven away, and they finally arrived in Shuzhou, so they couldn't find a place again.

"Bai Zhi, go get it, when we have money, he will buy it for me."

Bai Zhi reluctantly lengthened her tone, "Miss...."

"Go get it!" Xue Baolian said sharply.

Bai Zhi had no choice but to obediently take out the box full of jewelry.

Xue Baolian walked over with the box and put it in front of Yao Nian, "Sister Yao, this is a little bit of my jewelry, it should be worth a little." ”

Yao Nian could see the reluctance in her eyes, but there was no other way so far.

"Thank you."

Xue Baolian smiled, "Thank you for what?" Although there are not many pieces of jewelry, they are all fashionable at the time and should be worth the money. ”

Yao Nian nodded, she couldn't estimate the price of these jewelry, but she also felt a little bit in her heart when she said this.

"Okay, then I'll take the money to the village chief tomorrow."

In the blink of an eye, it was the second day.

Yao Nian woke up early in the morning, his head a little groggy.

Although they had already arrived in Shuzhou, they still had nothing to eat except for the abundant water supply, and there was grass growing on the ground, but it was bitter and difficult to swallow.

Yao Nian was a little dizzy from hunger.

"Mother, are you awake?" Xie Zhi shouted.

There was only one Erbao in the tent, Yao Nian rubbed his head, and said with some confusion, "Why are you alone?" What about the others? ”

Xie Zhi pursed his lips, his face was a little unhappy, what happened to him alone? Wouldn't she want to be alone with him?

But seeing that her face was tired and she didn't sleep well, he said helplessly, "Uncle Ouyang took the three of them outside to find something to eat." ”

As soon as he heard that Ouyang Jin was taking him, Yao Nian's heart was also relieved, and he hurriedly got up to clean himself up.

Before leaving, she saw Xie Zhi with a very unhappy face, she turned back, rubbed his head, and smiled gently, "Erbao is waiting in the tent obediently, waiting for my mother to come back from the cattle herding village to bring Erbao something delicious." ”

I also know how to coax myself, hum, Xie Zhi snorted very arrogantly in his heart, and his face was not obvious.

"Okay." He still obediently answered.

Yao Nian rubbed his hair again before going out.

Chen Qian was waiting at the door, and when he saw Yao Nian coming out, he spoke, "I'll go with you, right?" ”

One more person and one more person to take care of, Yao Nian didn't refuse, after all, she entered an unfamiliar village by a woman, what if she was deceived?

When the two walked to the entrance of the village, Zhang Yu was sitting on the stone pier at the entrance of the village with his waist pinched, and when he saw them coming from a distance, he snorted coldly at the corner of his mouth.

Yao Nian didn't want to have much communication with him, so he talked about the matter of coming to buy land today that he discussed with the village chief yesterday.

Zhang Yu was very reluctant on his face, but he still let Yao Nian and the two in.

After taking two steps, he suddenly spoke, "Wait. ”

Yao Nian turned his head and looked at him a little impatiently, but he still said patiently, "What's the matter?" ”

Zhang Yu's eyes were on the other long sword on Chen Qian's waist, his eyes were full of curiosity and vigilance, "What are you doing with the matching sword?" Are you trying to assassinate our village chief? ”

When he said this, Yao Nian couldn't help but laugh, "Why did we assassinate the village chief?"

"How do I know what's going on in your mind?" Zhang Yu snorted, pointed to Chen Qian's matching sword and said, "You can go in, but this sword can't be brought in!" ”

Chen Qian stared at him for a while, didn't say anything, and threw the sword into his arms.

"Alright, you can go in now." Zhang Yu coughed dryly twice and said seriously.

Neither of them paid any attention to him and walked straight to the village.

There is no difference between Cattle Farming Village and Peach Blossom Village, both are brick houses and earthen houses, but the difference is that each of their houses has a particularly large yard in front of their houses, which has all kinds of cattle, sheep, chickens and ducks.

Yao Nian walked to the side of a courtyard, and looked inside, a white and tender little lamb was in the dark, and she was even more hungry when she saw it.

These lambs are made into lamb skewers, steamed mutton, mutton hot pot, cumin mutton, red stewed mutton, stir-fried spicy mutton, spicy roasted mutton trotters....

Yao Nian felt that his saliva was about to overflow from his mouth.

She swallowed violently, forcing herself to withdraw her gaze from the delicacies.

There will be, there will be in the future, and when the house is built, she will definitely raise more sheep Woo Woo.

It's too gluttonous.

"Delicious!"

A light sarcasm sounded, and Yao Nian came back to his senses completely.

She looked around and couldn't see where the speaker was, when suddenly an object flew and hit her in the head, and the sound rang out again.

"I'm on the wall, stupid."

Yao Nian touched his head angrily and looked up, and there was the boy who was herding sheep yesterday lying on the wall.

"Kid, why do you just smash people?" Yao Nian pinched his waist and said.

Zhang Yu raised his chin and snorted twice, "Who made you drool while watching my sheep?" ”

"Is this your sheep?"

"That's right! I've never seen a woman as delicious as you, and my sheep are so young, and you're going to die of hunger, as if you've never eaten mutton in 800 lifetimes. ”

This damn child!

Yao Nian glared at him angrily, since she wore here, hadn't she ever eaten mutton again?
