Chapter Eighty-Five: Moving Overnight

"Dad, are you back?"

As soon as Li San'er stepped into the door, before she entered the house, a little girl with double pigtails and a flower skirt greeted her.

Stunned, he rushed towards Li San'er.

Behind her, a boy who was about eight years old, holding a boy who was about one or two years old, also hurriedly followed.

"Girl, do you miss your father?"

Li San'er picked up the girl, pinched her nose with her hand, looked at the boy holding the baby behind her, and said with a smile: "Go, go into the house with Dad"

Li Yongqing is Li San'er's eldest son, and he was still a little happy when he heard that his father was back at first, but when he really saw his father's appearance, this joy turned into worry.

The father and son entered the house, Li San'er put the little girl down, and reached out to pick up the boy in his son's hand.

teased: "Brother Feng'er misses Daddy?" ”

"Dad, Dad, I think" is not the one in the belly of the daughter-in-law Fen'er, Li Yongfeng is Li San'er's youngest son, just two years old, it was when he was babbling and not speaking very clearly, when he saw Li San'er, he was also so happy that he clapped his hands.

After teasing her daughter and son, Li San'er's spirit was sluggish a lot, after all, she had been on the road for several days, tired and hungry, where was there any spirit.

"Yan'er, Brother Feng'er, come, go to the yard with my brother to play, Daddy is tired, let Daddy take a rest, okay?"

Li Yongqing keenly discovered his father's exhaustion and coaxed his younger siblings out.

Fen'er fetched a bowl of water in the stove room, took two steamed buns into the house, and put them on the table.

Li San'er wiped his hands with a handkerchief and sat down at the table to eat, he ate quickly and quickly, never thought that he would be hungry one day, although the errands in the yamen were hard, but he could also earn some money, so that the family could not do it, but he was frugal and frugal, and he was barely enough for food and clothing.

Seeing that he was in a hurry to eat, Fen'er, who was sitting next to him, stopped talking.

"What's wrong? Just swallowed? ”

Fen'er looked embarrassed, and only said: "You eat first, let's talk after eating"

Li San'er didn't know why, so he quickly stuffed the steamed bun in his hand into his mouth, swallowed it in a few bites, took the bowl, and sat on the bed with the two of them, he held Fen'er's hand and sighed: "Fen'er, I worked hard for you in the days when I was not at home."

She is pregnant and has to take care of several children, and the busy work at home and outside the home, it is also with her that he can have a home.

Especially this time, he almost couldn't come back.

"I'm not hard, but you, it's you who have suffered a big sin" Fen'er shook her head, held Li San'er's hand, and carefully stroked his face, I haven't seen him for a few days, but he has lost a lot of weight, needless to say, I also know that this time I went out, I must have suffered a big sin.

"It's a sin," Li San'er muttered, and comforted with a smile: "But it's okay, didn't I come back safely?" ”

After finishing speaking, seeing Fen'er still frowning, she couldn't help asking: "I saw you just now, what happened in the days when I was away?" ”

Earlier, when she got the news, Fen'er wanted to give Li San'er a letter, but he was on a business trip, and he was riding a horse, and he didn't set a place, even if he wanted to carry the letter, there was no way, and now that he is back, she has a backbone, and she didn't want to disturb him to eat before, so when she heard him ask, she couldn't hold it back anymore, and said what she was hiding in her heart.

"Soon after you left, the water level of the well in the county dropped, and the water level of our well also dropped a lot.

"Within two days, the grain shops in the county were closed one after another, and the price of grain rose from the original fifty wen a catty to one hundred wen a catty, I was pregnant with a child, and I couldn't grab the grain in the grain shop, so I could only buy some steamed buns to store, and now there is no grain shop in the city, and the steamed buns I bought are about to be broken."

"The food at home is now less than ten catties, and although there is still some money, there is no way to buy food."

"A lot of people in the city have moved away, the boss, do you think we should move away too?"

Fen'er has been very flustered these days, she is already pregnant, and her mind is more sensitive than usual, and now she sees that her neighbors are planning to leave Wu County to join relatives, and her heart can't help but panic.

It's just that Li San'er is a head catcher in the Yamen, and he doesn't know if he can move or not.

As soon as she finished speaking, she looked at Li San'er tightly.

Li San'er chuckled in her heart, didn't rush to reply to her, first went to the well in the backyard, and took a bucket to fetch water in it.

When a bucket was put down, there was only less than half a bucket of water, and there was a lot of mud and sand mixed in it.

After a few days of driving outside, no one knows better than him what the weather is like now, whether to continue to stay in the county town and be his head catcher? Or do you want to obey them as Bai Xia and the others said?

He stood still, struggling inwardly.

"Dad, are we moving?" Li Yongqing looked at Li San'er by the well and asked softly.

Li San'er suddenly turned his head to look at him, it turned out that when Fen'er was talking to Li San'er just now, he was eavesdropping outside the door, knowing that his family was out of food, and he couldn't help but worry.

Seeing her son, Li San'er was originally a little hesitant, but she instantly decided to move down.

Wu County is no longer a place to stay for a long time.

Having made up his mind, he went back to the house and told Fen'er.

The two of them were busy, and the eldest son Li Yongqing also helped pack up his things, it was not dark at this time, so he could clean up quickly, and he could go out of the city before the city gate closed.

The family packed up a cart of things and went out before dark.

As soon as he went out, he met Liang You, who came over, and he also pushed a cart, and his blind old mother was sitting in the car, and was about to go to Li San'er's house to call the door, when he saw them come out.

"Where's Xu Cai?"

"Boss"

As soon as Li San'er asked, he saw Xu Cai walking from the side with his daughter-in-law, and the two of them each carried a backpack, and they didn't bring anything else, obviously thinking about going out of the city.

If they were still a little hesitant when they returned to Wu County, they felt that they shouldn't listen to the nonsense of the two little dolls, but after returning to Wu County, they heard about the situation in the city, and they had a premonition that they couldn't stay here.

The three of them came back quietly, and only one Junko knew.

Junzi didn't know that they didn't go to the county government to restore their lives, so the three families went out of the city together, mixed with the people who went out of the city, and they left the city easily.

Out of the city, the three families followed the people out of the city, and finally everyone separated at the fork in the road, and the people out of the city walked in other directions, but the three of them walked in the direction of Ganzhou.

Li San'er's daughter and youngest son sat in the car, the eldest son Li Yongqing and daughter-in-law Fen'er followed, and next to Liang You's old mother pushing him, Xu Cai and his daughter-in-law walked behind the two families.

"Boss, there are many people who are also in the same direction as us"

"It looks like there are a lot of people, so nothing will happen, right?"

Xu Cai glanced back at behind him, there were about six or seven families who followed them all the way, and they followed them from the time they left the city, and they were also dragging their families.
