She is the successor of the village Orion, who is no more than two years older than Wang Lihua, but she has been responsible for laundry, cooking, and taking care of her younger brother since she was a child.

Unlike Wang Lihua, the Wang family almost never forced her to do farm work, and now she is at the age of marriage, and she still lives like a little girl who has no troubles, which is really enviable.

Thinking of her mother who married herself to a thirty-something-in-the-thirties Orion for two taels of silver, Chen Xia's heart was inevitably sour, and her words were a little yin and yang.

"This girl, it's better to be reserved and quiet, and don't go outside to wander around, otherwise your husband's family will know about it in the future, so as not to be coldly spoken by your mother-in-law."

Aunt Zhang heard the ridicule in Chen Xia's words, and said meaningfully: "What are you afraid of, only if you don't have the ability to be afraid of your in-laws, my pear blossom will marry in the future, if her in-laws dare to throw her face, it's a big deal to move back to live, and her father and I just don't want her to marry far away." ”

Chen Xia sneered: "How can a son and daughter marry out and go back to live in her parents' house, isn't this a joke?" ”

"Who dares to laugh?" Aunt Zhang raised the mallet in her hand to wash clothes, and said viciously: "Who dares to laugh at my Zhang Feng's daughter?" I can't beat her! ”

A trace of embarrassment flashed on Chen Xia's face, but she replied: "How can anyone laugh at it, with your mother who loves your daughter so much, who dares to bully Pear Blossom!" ”

But I didn't think about it in my heart: With a tigress like you, which man in ten miles and eight villages dares to marry Wang Lihua! Wait to be a big girl with yellow flowers that no one wants! When the time comes, only when you marry Yang Blind from the next village, you will have to be embarrassed!

Chen Xia was sneering like this, rubbing her head vigorously against the clothes in her hands, and suddenly heard Wang Lihua's exclamation from afar:

"Mother~Mother~ Help!"

Although Wang Lihua was pampered by the Wang family, she was usually safe, not as good as the boy of the Lei family in the west of the village, and she loved to play pranks all the time.

Hearing her cry for help, several women who were washing clothes together guessed if something was wrong, and they all stopped what they were doing and craned their necks in the direction she was running from.

Aunt Zhang immediately threw away the mallet in her hand, rushed up and hugged Wang Lihua in her arms, and said in an anxious tone while checking whether she was injured: "What's wrong?" What's going on? ”

Wang Lihua ran out of breath and out of breath, "Village...... Dead man! ”

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of the women present widened.

"Dead? Who died? Du Qiong hurriedly asked.

Where did Wang Lihua know who died, she tightened Zhang Feng's clothes in fear, and cried: "I don't know, it's not from our village, that person is covered in blood, it's so scary!" ”

Zhang Feng and Du Qiong glanced at each other, and hurriedly said: "I'm afraid it's from outside, Sister Du, you go to the village chief to come over, let's go to the village entrance first." ”

Du Qiong nodded, turned around and went to the wooden basin placed on the shore, thought about it and put it down again, turned around and ran towards the village chief's house.

The others were both frightened and a little curious, so they collected their clothes and followed Zhang Feng towards the entrance of the village.

Their village is called Qinghong Village, and the Zhongtan Town to which it belongs is the nearest village and town near Liangcheng, and Liangcheng is the last pass of the border fortress of Chenguo.

Since the regent sent troops to resist Yu and broke the enemy army, Chen and Yu signed a peace document, which has only stopped for seven or eight years.

Perhaps it was because of the slaughter of the war, and the older generation of the village was particularly sensitive to injured outsiders.

When he arrived at the entrance of the village, Zhang Feng saw Chang Ning standing under the yellow horn tree and a bloodstained man lying on the ground, looking dressed like some sneaky person.

Zhang Feng left Wang Lihua in place, cautiously walked not far in front of Chang Ning, and asked with some vigilance, "Who are you?" What do you want to do in the village? ”

Chang Ning glanced at Zhang Feng, and through her eyes saw the other women hiding behind her, knowing that their current appearance was really suspicious, and if they didn't explain it clearly, they were afraid that they would be easily driven out of the village.

Chang Ning frowned slightly, the corners of his lips drooped downward, and he cried out in an instant.

"Aunt and aunt are good, okay to save our brothers and sisters, we just escaped from the robbers, my brother ...... He's dying! ”

"Robbers?" Zhang Feng looked puzzled, "You said that there are robbers on our mountain?" ”

As soon as Zhang Feng's voice howled, the other village women were immediately frightened, and their faces were frightened: "It's over, the robbers are here!" The robbers are coming! How's that good? ”

"Hurry up and move, the robbers will surely be killing the village soon!"

Chang Ning: "......"

The combined courage of these villagers is not as great as the earth dog named Wang Xiaohua in front of them.

Although the others panicked, Zhang Feng was stunned and did not move.

There are 30,000 people in Liangcheng alone, who dares to openly rob near Liangcheng, and don't die?

She has lived in Qinghong Village since she was a child, and she has experienced a total of three times when the army of the Yu Kingdom came in, but none of them were robbers, so she didn't believe what Chang Ning said, and even looked at Chang Ning's eyes with a little more suspicion.

It's just that the identity is unknown, and it's full of lies, such a person can't stay in the village.

Chang Ning saw the change in her expression and knew that she had exposed her flaws, and with a turn of her brain, she acted online: "Woo, I don't know if they are robbers, it's just that everyone is riding a high horse with a big knife in their hands, and they rushed to the official road and slashed and slashed, shouting what kind of dragon slaying in their mouths...... What a king ......"

Zhang Feng's expression changed suddenly when he heard this, and he stepped forward to cover Chang Ning's mouth, looking left and right, but fortunately, no one around heard it.

"Okay, okay, my aunt believes that you have met a robber." Zhang Feng approached Chang Ning, lowered his voice and admonished: "Girl, you can't say this to anyone in the future, if someone asks you, it will say that you have encountered robbers, understand?" ”

Chang Ning nodded blankly, and Zhang Feng let go of his hand.

She smoothed her mouth and seemed to have lingering palpitations.

Just two days ago, the regent Han Yuyuan raided the emperor Long Xiang outside Liangcheng, but unfortunately he was defeated and killed, and he heard that the corpses on the official road were all over the field, and the blood flowed like a river, and even the land was infected red.

The road that used to be crowded with people now looks like a road to hell, and the people would rather spend two more days on the detour than dare to set foot on this official road.

Zhang Feng looked at the miserable brother and sister in front of him, and immediately thought of this rebellion, presumably encountering the rebels on the way and being implicated.

What two unlucky ones.

Even Zhang Feng's eyes were a little more sympathetic and gentle when he looked at them, and touched Chang Ning's head and comforted: "You have also suffered an unwarranted disaster!" ”

Although I don't understand why this lady is so deeply touched, Chang Ning didn't argue, and did enough sad sobbing and pitiful scenes.
