"Miss, second master, you're back!"

"It's going well, isn't it?"

As soon as they saw the return of the two benefactors, Huo Xiang and Sun Yuan immediately stepped forward to greet them, and Ding Camellia also followed closely to express their congratulations.

After they left, they didn't do anything all afternoon, and they kept paying attention to the movements around them in a tense state, for fear that there would be some accidents because of their own negligence.

Fortunately, except for the family that took them in, everything went smoothly, which made them breathe a sigh of relief.

"Well, smooth, how are you guys doing here?" Xia Ning asked casually.

Huo Xiang replied, "It's all very good, I didn't see many people in the afternoon, everyone took advantage of the free time in the afternoon, and pulled some small back baskets and bamboo baskets nearby, and some things can be decorated on the road." ”

After all, half of the people in the team didn't have any luggage and belongings, except for the clothes they were wearing, their sleeves were completely empty, and they had no long things.

If it weren't for the benefactor who gave everyone a sum of money, a penniless person like them, even if they were freed, I am afraid they would not have lived long.

Although there is a settling-in fee, everyone does not dare to use it at will, so now if you can instigate, try to save a save, and the benefactor also said before that the pots and pans left by the gangsters will also be distributed to them at that time.

With the rattan basket, it can not only hold the things that everyone collects on the road, but also help share some materials and reduce some burdens.

"That's good." Xia Ning appreciated.

Sun Yuan hurriedly reported, "Miss, second master, there is a family in our team, after they heard about us, they said that they wanted to follow us, and we didn't dare to make up our minds about this matter, so they just sat on the side and waited, I saw that their family was quite honest, so they didn't drive away." ”

In the afternoon, when the family passed by, they thought that they were also resting halfway, so they rested on the side, so the woman inquired with the girl who was beside them, and asked them where they were, and wanted to go with them.

This family has experienced bandit turmoil before, and they are worried that their family will be targeted by other gangsters, so they want to find a team with more people to go with them, and they don't care where they go, as long as their family is not alone.

Sun Yuan saw that their family was very honest, and their expression was also very restrained, except for taking the initiative to speak when they inquired, and then they had been sitting on the side peacefully, not looking around and not talking much.

"Want to come with us? Do they know what's going on? Xia Ning was slightly surprised, and asked curiously as she walked.

In this feudal society that emphasizes clans, ordinary people do not dare to live alone from their clans, and even if there is such turmoil as today, people in the world will still try their best to return to their clans or homeland.

Only unavoidable reasons or homeless people are willing to live anywhere, and their families are fine, how can they want to find a strange place to settle down with other refugees?

This is in line with the way of thinking of the ancients.

"I asked, and they said." Sun Yuan truthfully relayed that he didn't care too much about it before, after all, this place didn't belong to them, and it was reasonable for the refugees passing by to want to rest, as long as they didn't make any trouble, he had no reason to drive people away directly.

But later, seeing that their family didn't mean to leave for a long time, he stepped forward to ask.

The man in charge of this family is surnamed Liu, his name is Liu Dalin, he is a person from Liujia Village under Sanguan Town, and after the bandits slaughtered the town some time ago, they successively swept several villages in Zhou Village, and it happened that Liujia Village was among the targets of the bandits.

But their village received the news quickly, so the whole village quickly packed up their baggage and fled collectively, while Liu Dalin's family lived at the foot of the mountain at the end of the village, but no one informed them, if it wasn't for the children of the family who found the abnormality when they walked around the village, their family was afraid that they would still be kept in the dark.

But it was too late, and they heard the sound of horses' hooves, so they hurriedly packed up their bags and hid in the mountains behind the house.

Fortunately, the robbers came and went quickly, but before leaving, they set a fire and burned down all the huts in the village, so the next day the family went down the mountain to chase the village team.

As a result, they finally caught up, but they were collectively ostracized by the villagers, and they couldn't even follow the team, and even beat and scolded, so that their family could get away.

There was no way, the people in the same village did not accept them, so the family had to flee by another route, but their family was only two adults and two children, and they did not have an accurate destination, so they walked aimlessly with the other refugees.

But gradually, everyone else reached their destination, and they were the only ones left on the road, until they saw a group of equally 'vulnerable' teams when they passed by this place this afternoon, and they had a thought.

That kind of team with a lot of strong and strong middle-aged people, they didn't dare to join, worried that the last family would be bullied, and when they happened to pass by this place, they saw Huo Xiang and them.

Although most of this team are women, there are quite a few of them, and there are twenty fewer of them, so it is better to choose to go with them, and you don't have to worry about being bullied or something.

Secondly, there are two masters in their family, although the son is only twelve years old, but he can also top half of the labor force, join their team, and the more people who travel with them can be safer, and they can help each other more or less along the way.

So they want to follow Huo Xiang and their team, and they can settle down wherever they want, as long as they stay away from the turmoil here.

"That's pretty much it."

Xia Ning nodded slightly to indicate that she knew, and at this time they also happened to walk in front of everyone, and the Liu family stood up early, with a look of restraint and apprehension.

"Hello Miss Xia Xia, hello Second Master Song!" Liu Dalin greeted nervously, he knew that the pair of men and women with good temperament in front of him were the benefactors of this line.

He knew that if he wanted to follow their team, it would depend on whether these two would take them in, and the man and woman would know at a glance that they were from rich and noble families, and they didn't know if they could agree.

He really wanted to behave well, but he was clumsy and stammered whenever he talked about something.

"Hello, Sun Xiucai has already told us about your situation, if you want to join us, Baiyun Village is naturally welcome!" Xia Ning sensed the other party's embarrassment and tried her best to be more easy-going.

"Really?" Hearing this, Liu Dalin was very excited and happy, but his expression was a little hesitant.

At this time, Song Shaoqin spoke, "Why do the people of Liujia Village exclude you? ”
