Chapter 109: Guarantees

Seeing that the ends of her hair were still dripping with water, all of which were soaked in the placket of her clothes, Xiao Feng naturally twisted Wan Jinlan's hair with a towel, Wan Jinlan yawned, she was worried that something would happen to him last night, and she didn't sleep well all night.

I used to sleep outside the wind and eat openly, and I never slept peacefully most of the nights.

Today, with a place to shelter from the wind and rain, Wan Jinlan's sleepiness is particularly strong.

"Although the bandits in Xiaping Village have been solved, it is difficult to guarantee that Deputy Lieutenant Gao will not anger them, and we are too weak to fight the homeless, and the original horse bandits are not easy to control..."

Wan Jinlan always felt that there were many things that needed to be done, and the most important thing in her heart was firearms, if this thing could be mass-produced, it would definitely be invincible, but it was a pity that the old man surnamed Lu, who claimed to be Xiao Feng's uncle, didn't know where he was now, and she could only think about firearms.

Xiao Feng wrenched her hair, and saw that her face was tired, her eyes were blue and black, her former fair and delicate face had become rough, and there were red scars left by knife marks on the skin exposed on the back of her neck.

He picked him up and walked to the stone bed covered with new furs.

Wan Jinlan was startled by the drowsiness, "What are you doing?" ”

Xiao Feng put her on the stone bed, "Sleep." ”

Wan Jinlan stared at him, she was very sleepy, but now she was sleepy and let him fly.

Xiao Feng followed the hair on the side of her sideburns, Wan Jinlan looked up at his originally white face and now it was a lot darker, and there was a layer of blue-black stubble on his chin, because he had to be blackened every day, his face was no longer what she liked before, but compared to the scenery and moon in the past, he was a little more stable now.

Seeing him slowly lower his head, Wan Jinlan's heart thumped.

Then, his head landed on the side of her neck, his arms pressed against her, and the hot air sprayed by his breath fell on her neck.

Xiao Feng didn't know how to express the words he was holding in his mouth.

He knows exactly how many scars she has on her body these days, and he wants to say that he will not let her suffer with him in the future, but he feels bored when he says it, and now he can't give a stable and prosperous future like the past, but he promises that he will do his best.

After a while, Xiaohua said outside: "Sister, the hot water is boiling." ”

Wan Jinlan patted him lightly on the back, and his tone was a little soft: "You go to the bath, your body is rancid." ”

Xiao Feng raised his head, rubbed his forehead, patted her, and said, "You sleep." ”

Wan Jinlan raised his voice: "Xiaohua, go back to sleep." ”

Xiaohua answered, and walked back to find her brother on her short legs.

Wan Jinlan tossed and turned for a long time, and finally fell into a deep sleep, not even knowing when Xiao Feng slept on the stone bed beside her at night.

When I got up in the morning, the indoor stove was burning, the indoor temperature was just right, Xiaohua was sitting quietly by the stove to roast the fire, and the stove also exuded the aroma of minced porridge.

"Sister is awake?" Xiaohua saw Wan Jinlan get up, and hurriedly poured hot water into the wooden basin that had been filled with cold water.

After Wan Jinlan washed up, she rubbed her head, "Why did you come here so early today?" Have you seen Brother Song? ”

Wan Jinlan took down the porridge with a cloth, and put out two bowls, and knew that it was from Xiao Feng's hand after eating the first bite.

When she was in the palace, she ate a few meals he cooked, and the minced pork porridge was like this, which was delicious, but it was not unpleasant.

Xiaohua blew the porridge and said, "The owner took someone to the town and asked Xiaohua to take care of my sister." ”

Wan Jinlan nodded, "Is it okay for my sister to give Xiaohua a big name?" ”

Xiaohua tilted her head, "Does my brother have it too?" ”

Wan Jinlan remembered the name of Xiaohua's brother Tie Niu and nodded.

The two are surnamed Fan, and Wan Jinlan has two simple ones, Xiaohua is called Fan Jing, and Tie Niu is called Fan Rui.

Cynical, like a flower like jade; Wise, wise and accessible.

After drinking the porridge, Wan Jinlan drank the warm soup on the side, and began to sort out the sources of all the people in the cottage, including the homeless people, the original horse bandits, and the female children.

There is a strong smell of medicine wafting in the courtyard, and the medicinal juice is boiling in three large iron pots, and even people who look healthy have to drink a bowl of decoction to ward off the cold.

Xia Feng is leading people to set traps under the cottage, and the village is busy, moving stones and digging holes, looking hot.

Long after dark, Xiao Feng led people to bring back a batch of warm clothes and medicinal materials, and brought back nearly twenty truckloads of grain and grass.

"Why did you come back so late?" The nearest town, Gua, only took a little more than an hour, and he had been there all day today.

Qingyuan County has four subordinate towns, each with a varying number of villages, compared with the dense population of the Central Plains, Liangzhou is considered to be vast and sparsely populated.

Xiao Feng took off the dark coat and took out a small cloth bag and jar that he brought back.

There are scar removals, facial grease, bath lotion, eyebrow powder and mouth fat. These are naturally brought to her.

Xiao Feng sat down at the table and got a cup of hot tea, "The price of food in Gu'a Town has tripled, one person is only allowed to buy one bucket of rice, and the medicinal materials in the medicine hall are not enough, I took people to the town, and inquired about some news, and a large number of homeless people were placed outside the broken temple in Xiaping Village, and it was too late to come back." ”

The chicken soup had been simmering on the stove for a day, the meat was crispy, and the soup was golden, Wan Jinlan put the bottles and cans on the wooden table in front of the window, and served him the soup after cleaning his hands.

"Liangzhou has now blocked the passage to enter the customs, and there are more and more displaced people, and a large area of villages infected with wind and cold has been blocked, not far from our side, in Anxian County, next door to Qingyuan County."

The two ate meatloaf, drank chicken soup, and talked about the situation outside.

"Yu Liang came here today, I have something to say, and when I saw that I was a woman, I went back again."

Xiao Feng paused, "If he comes back tomorrow, I don't think he'll be there yet, let him talk to you directly." ”

"What are you going to do?"

Xiao Feng swallowed a mouthful of soup, "Take the opportunity to collect the homeless people, accumulate grain and grass, and then investigate the senior lieutenant in the mouth of the second master." ”

These horse bandits have been able to entrench themselves in Gu'a Town for many years, robbing villagers, killing people and plundering and still have nothing to do, naturally because there are people behind them, and a long-term and stable relationship can only be interests.

The two of them knew from the mouth of the horse bandit that the property looted by the horse bandit would definitely be handed over fifty percent of the property in every action of the horse bandits.

As for how this fifty percent is determined, the people above will naturally not be easily fooled.

In the past, when horse bandits attacked the village, the people would go to the government to report the case, and the upper authorities would send people down to count what had been looted and how many people had died.

According to this statistic, it is impossible for the horse bandits to take the money even if they want to.

Thinking of this, Wan Jinlan was stunned, "Deputy Lieutenant Gao has been in contact with horse bandits for many years, even if Deputy Lieutenant Gao is the son of the big boss, the big boss doesn't keep accounts, what about the second boss?" ”

If there is an account book, Deputy Lieutenant Gao can solve it directly!
