Chapter 48: Back to the village

Cloud?

Which family is this?

Wu Qingxi searched for his memory, but no.

Shaking his head, Wu Qingxi turned his gaze to the back of the official road.

The sound of the clattering carriage was the Wu family's rush over.

"Sister, come up and hide from the rain!" Wu Qingmu's eyes were sharp, and when he saw Wu Qingxi, he hurriedly shouted.

But I soon noticed the oil-paper umbrella in my sister's hand, did my sister still bring an umbrella when she set off?

Wu Qingmu was still a little puzzled, but when he got closer, he found that this oil-paper umbrella looked very expensive, and he didn't have it at home.

"Sister, where did you get the umbrella? Mother is still worried about you in the rain? Wu Qingmu asked.

Wu Qingxi was about to point in the direction where the man's carriage stopped, but found that there was no one there.

"Oh, a good Samaritan lent it to me."

"Huh? Then you have to remember it in the future! ”

Wu Qingxi looked at the jade pendant hanging on the handle of the umbrella and nodded slightly: "Well, if you have a chance." ”

Yun Jin put down his hand and gently flicked the curtain with two fingers, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly: "Continue to hurry." ”

……

The journey was smooth, and it could even be said that it was a bit too smooth.

Wu Qingxi faintly felt that something was wrong, but when he looked around carefully, he didn't find any suspicious signs.

Is it because you are thinking too much?

Enter Minxian County.

"I'm finally home!" Father Wu said with some excitement that he had been worried about how long he had been out for as long as he had been out.

Along the way, it was full of devastation.

The midsummer sun makes people feel unrefreshed, and the desolation around them is chilling.

Sister-in-law Wu sighed and whispered to this Wu Qinghe: "Huzi and his father, how are we going to live this year?" The fields are confiscated, and there are so many mouths in the house. ”

Looking at his daughter-in-law's sad face, Wu Qinghe was much more optimistic: "Son, what are you afraid of, we were not hungry when we fled before, and it will only get better and better in the future, if it doesn't work, I will go out to sell coolies, and I can always earn money to buy food." ”

The voice they said was very small, but Wu Qingxi heard it clearly.

She didn't want to listen to her brother and sister-in-law's private words, but she just happened to come over to discuss something with her eldest brother, and it happened to be a coincidence.

Seeing that the two of them were talking, they left silently.

"Sister, what are you going to do with your eldest brother?" Wu Qingmiao came out, and he happened to be going to find his eldest brother.

Wu Qingxi made a look, and the brother and sister stepped aside.

Looking at what Wu Qingxi took out, Wu Qingmiao was startled: "Where did you get so much silver?" ”

"Didn't you go to Yinzhou before? Do someone a little favor, this is the reward. Wu Qingxi didn't want to lie, but since the money was taken out, he definitely had to make up a reason.

Wu Qingmiao didn't ask what to help, her sister wanted to say that she would naturally say it, but since she didn't mention it, it was probably not easy to speak.

"The village doesn't know what's going on yet, and we have to prepare for the worst." Wu Qingxi voiced his concerns.

Wu Qingmiao listened very carefully, although he felt that his sister was thinking too seriously, but it was not necessarily impossible.

"Now we have to go back and make plans." Wu Qingmiao thought about it for a while, "I'll see how to deal with it when the time comes." ”

Wu Qingxi nodded, it's not impossible, anyway, she wasn't afraid of anything.

I just want to prepare my family in advance, and going home doesn't mean that everything is the same as before.

"Daddy and mother are so good, let them be happy." The brother and sister have a tacit understanding on this point.

The carriage walked on the road without hurry, Minxian County is not big, and the county seat in their village is only thirty or forty miles.

In the evening, taking advantage of the thick fog, the carriage finally drove into the village.

The village, not the usual quiet.

"Sister, are we the first to come back?" Wu Qingmu asked with some curiosity.

Wu Qingxi shook her head, she felt that there were at least more than ten living people's breaths in the village.

"Maybe I'm asleep." Having said that, Wu Qingxi was on guard.

Looking at the red tassel spear that exuded cold air, Wu Qingmu inexplicably felt safe, although he felt hairy at first.

"Hey, this house has only lived in for a few years, and it must be repaired in the future." As soon as Wu Qing entered the courtyard, he began to chatter.

No way, after the flood, the yard and the house fell into decay a little too quickly.

"Dad, it's okay, when tomorrow dawns, I'll be with the mud, we have a lot of people and do things quickly, and we can renovate it in two or three days." Wu Qinghe said honestly.

He has a lot of energy, and that's not a problem at all.

"Okay, okay, start tomorrow." Father Wu obviously couldn't wait.

Wu Niang said mysteriously: "You wait, my mother will find something to eat for you." ”

When I was in a hurry, some of the food that I couldn't take away at home was secretly hidden by the martial artist.

Huzi and Xiao Yan held hands and followed the adults.

Hearing grandma's words, Huzi was very happy, clapping his little hands and cheering, Xiao Yan snickered on the side.

"Keep your voice quiet, don't be heard." Sister-in-law Wu is still very cautious, but she is obviously in a good mood.

Although the house is a mess, she can live in it by tidying up, so she is already very satisfied.

……

After a while, I heard Wu Niang's cry.

Everyone was startled and hurriedly rushed over, only to see that the cellar, which was not large, was empty.

Only Wu Niang stood alone in the center, crying very sadly.

"Who stole the one who killed a thousand knives?" Wu Niang cried and scolded, obviously angry to the extreme.

After all, they came in full of joy, only to find that there was nothing.

Wu Qingxi stepped forward to comfort: "Mother, it's okay, just steal it, steal it, there will be it later." ”

It's not good to be hungry, take out the last bit of food in the bag and eat it, and everyone simply clean it up and lie down.

Wu Qingxi was hesitant in her heart, should she say it?

"Sister, are you sad and can't sleep?" The three elder brothers gathered around in unison.

Wu Qingxi was suddenly relieved at this moment, and her previous entanglement seemed a little ridiculous.

"Go, I have something to tell you."

The four of them came to another empty room, and Wu Qingxi's voice was very low: "Actually, I have a secret that I haven't told you." Because I didn't know how to say it, but for now, I decided to say it. ”

briefly explained the matter of space, but Wu Qingxi still had reservations.

For example, there is a silver mine in it, there is a gold mine, and there are even countless gold and silver treasures.

She wants her family to live a good life, but she hopes that her brothers will create their own value.

"Really? It's amazing! Wu Qingmu was the most curious, and his eyes couldn't wait to see a few holes in Wu Qingxi's face.

As soon as Wu Qingxi's mind moved, a sack of rice appeared beside them.

The three of them were startled, but they quickly stabilized their minds, and looked at Wu Qingxi's gaze as if they were looking at a fairy.

"Sister, don't worry, we will definitely help you keep it a secret." The three brothers said in unison.
