Chapter 9: Regaining Freedom

Leaving the labor camp?

Free?

The three daughters of the Xia family stood in the open space of the labor camp, with countless pairs of fiery and envious eyes behind them, and in front of them was the overseer Liu Po with a regretful and helpless face, and the faces of the three of them were not ecstatic, only dazed.

Just now I was in a desperate situation where I was about to be humiliated and ruined, it was difficult to die, and it was worse than death, and in a blink of an eye, I was in heaven where I could leave.

The ups and downs of this life have shocked the three of them.

It took them a while to react.

Xia Ningzhen trembled and spoke, "Mother, auntie, is what she said true?" Can we really get out? ”

Xia Jingyun's mother, Xia Li, also came back to her senses from despair, "Xu is right, if you want to do anything else, why do you need to deceive us like this." ”

The women who had been spoiled before were taken away directly, and there was no such thing at all.

Xia Zhang's family, that is, Xia Jingyun's aunt, is still in a dreamlike trance, "No matter, no matter, don't be ruined, don't be hungry and tired, how can it be good!" ”

"yes, it's all good."

At this time, the three women hugged each other, crying and laughing happily.

The wind of the labor camp finally brought some taste of freedom.

Liu Po stood aside, still unwillingly pouting with the guards, "My lord, if you look at the figures of these three people, they are all pampered and accustomed to raising fine skin and tender meat, and if you offer it to the steward, the steward will be excited, and when the time comes, we will all have benefits, so why bother to let them go!" ”

The guard slapped over, "If you want to do something, you will do it, where is so much nonsense!" Does the order from above allow us to talk nonsense here? ”

Damn, the lady in charge will be happy.

His whole body was getting hard.

Liu Po covered her face and didn't dare to say anything for a moment.

The guard shook his hand and looked at the three daughters of the Xia family, "You three, come with me!" The people of your family are waiting outside. ”

On the way to the outside of the camp, Xia Zhang, who was born in a martial arts family, mustered the courage to ask in a low voice, "Dare to ask your lordship, why do you want to let us go?" ”

The guard said lightly: "Someone in your family has made meritorious service, so Lord Ling Zun will reward your family from hard labor." ”

Meritorious service?

The three of them glanced at each other, and Xia Zhang immediately said, "It must be my family Dingyuan!" That is, he was physically strong enough to make such a great achievement and save our lives. It's not in vain that I've worked so hard to cultivate, my good son! ”

She stroked her chest, looked relieved, and turned her head to look at her daughter, "You must remember this grace of life and repay your brother's kindness." ”

It seems to be for his daughter, but in fact, he is talking about his younger siblings.

The so-called poor and rich martial arts, in the past, Xia Jingyun's family was indeed not as rich as Xia Yunfei's family, and the Xia Li family of the small jade family was not as flamboyant and sharp as the Xia Zhang family, who was born in a martial arts family, and his temperament was always weaker, and he smiled weakly when he heard the words, "Sister-in-law, don't worry." ”

It was her daughter Xia Ningzhen who bravely resisted the mistakes and omissions of her mother's words under the hardships of these days, "Mother, how can you say that, what if it is a cousin?" ”

Xia Zhangshi shook his head and said: "It's not for my mother, different situations require different skills, just like you and I are here thanks to your aunt's care, your cousin is a weak scholar, it's good to be alive, pointing to him can make meritorious contributions to save lives, do you think it's possible?" ”

Xia Ning was really speechless, and the three of them slowly walked to the camp gate by supporting each other.

Outside the door, two fathers and sons were already waiting for them.

Xia Jingyun also saw her mother, aunt and cousin for the first time.

The mother is the weak appearance in the memory, adding a lot of haggardness.

My aunt's life is better, but now she doesn't have the pride she used to have, and she doesn't have her plumpness.

Cousin, hiss, it's so beautiful, it's a pity.

Freed from the crisis of life and death, the uninhibited uninhibition in Xia Jingyun's bones that he had trained in dealing with the three sects and nine streams began to slowly reveal.

Xia Jingyun was looking at them, and they were also looking at Xia Jingyun and the four of them.

Rescued from the hardships and pains, seeing each other's appearances, the heartache and pain of more than half a month, those worries and thoughts day and night are rushing out in an instant, and the family of seven hugging their heads and crying.

After crying for a while, the three women looked at Xia Yunfei and bowed deeply to him, "Thank you for my son/cousin/brother." ”

Xia Yunfei looked at the three of them in amazement, "Why are you worshipping me?" ”

"Dingyuan, this is what you deserve." Xia Zhang kindly held Hao Da'er's arm, "You have made a great contribution to save our family, we not only want to thank you, but also repay you well in the future!" ”

Xia Yunfei sighed, "Although you make me very happy like this, but ......"

He pointed at Xia Jingyun, "This is all Erlang's credit, it's none of my business, you have to thank Erlang!" ”

Xia Zhang's family was struck by lightning and turned his head to look at Xia Jingyun.

Uncle Xia Mingxiong also twisted his beard, and sighed with emotion, "This time it is indeed thanks to Erlang, if it weren't for Erlang's intelligence, we would have suffered a big disaster!" ”

Xia Yunfei echoed: "Yes, my father and second uncle are ready to die, but I didn't expect that in just a few days, Erlang not only let us survive, but also rescued us." ”

Xia Jingyun smiled and pulled her clothes, "Auntie, I'm ready." ”

Xia Li's face flushed, his mouth opened slightly, and he stopped talking.

"Thank you, cousin!"

Xia Ningzhen decisively drove her mother to a dead end.

Xia Zhang gritted his teeth, and immediately said to Xia Jingyun sincerely thank Erlang.

After all, they only quarrel occasionally, and they don't have a grudge.

Xia Jingyun hurriedly held her up, and said with a smile: "If it weren't for my cousin's support, I wouldn't have survived at this time, they are all a family, why should my aunt talk about two families." ”

Xia Zhang's heart was a lot more comfortable, but at the same time, he was even more surprised, this nerd who had never been able to do anything before, suddenly opened up?

Can you still have this benefit when you are a coolie?

Xia Li also stepped forward and gently stroked his son's face, his eyes were both relieved and distressed.

Maybe it's the relationship of memory fusion, Xia Jingyun naturally spoke, "Mother, don't worry, I'm fine, just raise it for a few days." ”

"Okay, let's go home!"

As the head of the family, the uncle opened his mouth to preside over the overall situation.

Everyone nodded their heads again and again, and then they were all stunned.

Their ancestral property is in a neighboring county, and now that all the money and belongings of the field house have been copied, where is there a home for them to go back!

When he came out of the labor camp, he was penniless, and he couldn't even find an inn to settle in.

Thinking that they would be living on the streets and sleeping in the open, the women couldn't help but turn pale.

Xia Hengzhi forcibly comforted: "Let's find a temple to settle down for the time being, fortunately, the weather is not hot, let's spend one night first, and tomorrow we will go out to find a job to see if we can have a place to live." ”

Xia Li also echoed her husband, "Yes, it's better than being in a labor camp, at least you don't have to be affected." ”

Having said that, what kind of work can such a group of people who can't carry on their shoulders and can't lift their hands find.

By the time they find it, will everyone have starved to death?

Do you have to beg on the streets?

Thinking of the vast road ahead, everyone seemed to have been poured a basin of cold water on their heads, and most of the excitement that had just escaped from the sea of suffering disappeared.

"Xia Gongzi!"

At that moment, a voice sounded in the distance, and the sound of horses' hooves gradually approached.

In the confused and frightened eyes of everyone, a county official turned over and dismounted, looking at Xia Jingyun, "Young Master Xia, the house has been arranged, you can come with me." ”

!!!

Xia Gongzi?

House?

Looking at it in shock, Xia Jingyun smiled slightly, "Lord Zhang, who was going to be the prisoner before, also rewarded me with ten taels of silver, and I used this money to ask the county master to help find a small courtyard." Let's go, now we're really going home. ”

Everyone's faces showed surprise.

Xia Ning's eyes were really beautiful, looking at this cousin who only knew everything on weekdays, but he didn't expect that in the most difficult moment of the family, it was he who saved everyone.

After a slight delay, the group supported each other, and could not wait to hobbled towards the city again.

There were county officials leading the way, and when they entered the city, they did not encounter any obstacles, and it didn't take long for them to come to the gate of a small courtyard next to the city wall.
