Chapter 42: Woe to the Hearts of the People

The days of early spring are getting warmer and warmer, and the warm sun warms all the corners.

Enron's thick padded jacket had been put away, and he was put on a padded pony coat.

There is an old peach tree outside the yard, which is still remnant of the baptism of the flood last year, and now it has drawn green shoots.

Every day, the little flower cub teaches the cubs how to climb the tree and how to catch food under the peach tree.

"Little flower cub, eat fish."

Wenbo held a wooden basin, inside which were small white strips, and the fish that did not grow big in the river were as slender as little fingers.

An Ran squatted next to the basin and fished out the fish that swam nimly in it with his hands.

The little flower cub was in a hurry, stretched out the cat's claw and fished it into the pot, and the small fish was snatched and eaten by the cat cubs before it jumped twice on the ground.

An Ran stroked the little flower cub's hair, the hair was smooth and soft, different from when she first saw it.

The little flower cub often brings the cubs to eat and drink, as if this is their own home, and they lie under the tree to bask in the sun when they are full of food and drink.

"Oh, my little ancestor, my sleeves are wet."

Fang Cuiying saw that Fu Bao was playing in the water, and her whole hand was fishing in the basin.

It's just that the early spring is not so cold, and the clothes are still warm.

An Ran didn't feel it, as soon as his hand was raised, water was dripping on his sleeve.

"You stinky boy, who let you use this basin to fill the fish, and the clothes will smell fishy when you wash them."

"Got it, I'll wash it up later." Wenhua took Wenbo to pick up the little fish.

"Mother, when will my brother come back?"

Wenbo trotted to Zhang Guihua, his brothers went to study, and no one at home took him around to play.

Liu Chunlan was busy cooking, and it was about to be noon, and she was going to deliver food to the people in the field.

"Go wash the pot, and I'll fill the pot of water for grandpa later."

The two people who were assigned to the task went about their work happily.

Li Aling fed a group of chickens and was about to feed the rabbits with rabbit grass.

Hey? Why is this rabbit biting its own fur?

Li Aling squatted on the edge of the cage, and the rabbit ripped off the hair on its body with its mouth and stacked it in the corner of the cage.

"Auntie, what's wrong with the rabbit, it keeps biting its own hair."

Zhang Guihua looked at the cage, whether there were fleas on this rabbit.

Zhang Guihua opened the cage, and the rabbit was very restless and almost bit her hand.

"Don't touch it, it's going to give birth."

"Going to give birth?"

Zhang Guihua thought that spring was coming, and the rabbit grass was eating well and growing strong.

"It's going to make a nest, and it's probably going to have a nest tonight. This rabbit is born diligently, and has to give birth to cubs several times a year. ”

"We're going to have a lot of bunnies in our house again."

Wen Hua and Wen Yuan squatted on the edge of the cage, how did the rabbit give birth?

"You two, go get a bowl to eat."

Liu Chunlan doesn't care about the child's curiosity, otherwise she will definitely ask endless questions later.

In the field, the king's father and his sons worked, and they had to grass the paddy fields and turn over the soil underneath.

This is a hard work, and when the paddy fields are turned over, the cultivated rice seedlings can be planted.

In addition to rice, which is a big crop, the winter wheat they planted last year has returned to green.

If you serve it well, the whole stalk will be strong when the heading is pumped and the flowers are raised.

"Uncle Wang, your family has delivered food."

Daddy Wang looked up, it was noon so soon.

"Changyi, let's eat."

Cao Defa crossed the two fields, sat next to him, and pulled a grass root with his hands.

Daddy Wang ate heavily, stopped his chopsticks and knocked on the edge of the bowl, shaking the rice grains on the chopsticks into the bowl.

"Changyi, I heard today that Changtao lost the battle, and 100,000 soldiers will die."

Father Wang took the chopsticks and beat the battle, but he still lost the battle.

"Alas~ I don't know if I'm still alive."

A person who is over half a hundred years old is confused about the years.

100,000 people died, seven, seven, eight, eight, eight, seven, eight, eight, seven, eight, eight, seven

"The news you heard!"

"I heard that it was lost from the yamen."

"Lost! No way! Father Wang stood up violently, Changtao is the southern defense line, if he doesn't hold it, he will soon be driven straight in.

They are in the middle of several great powers, and if the south is lost, it will be eaten and divided.

"Dad, is the war really lost? The fourth brother ......"

Wang Yonglin is now in Changtao, and so many people have died, I am afraid that there will be more than one luck.

"Village Chief! Oh no! Someone has revolted! ”

It was Wang Tieniu who came, and the whole person was flustered, panting while talking.

"Tell me slowly, what kind of uprising?"

Cao Defa and Daddy Wang both stood up in shock, what kind of righteousness is this?

"It's not us, someone in Qingyi in the upper reaches of the Changshui River has entered the mansion on horseback and raised a knife, and there are many people."

"Oops! We can still keep it here. ”

"What's going on over there?"

Wang Tieniu put his hands on his knees, and said with an atmosphere: "I don't know what the situation is, I heard that there is a lot of chaos over there, and I don't know where so many people came from." It's all kung fu. ”

The crops were too late to plant, so they hurried home.

What is the uprising! It's just that someone is going to rebel, so it's a fart to plant!

Father Wang is barefoot, and his grandchildren are still studying in Mengtang.

"Let's go get the kid back first."

Mengtang is not far from Qingyi, downstream, and the fast boat can be reached in an hour.

An Ran was put in a basket by her mother, and the other side was filled with all kinds of life-saving items.

Wang Yongye took the boys in the school to copy a shortcut, ready to meet everyone.

Liu Chunlan locked the cellar of her home, and the entrance outside was covered with a pyre.

"These rabbits are going to give birth to cubs!"

"At this time, where is it okay, go to the mountains to hide first."

Cao Defa didn't organize everyone together, there were too many people, and the goal was too big.

"Aunt Hua, how are you?"

Grandma Hua was carrying a bag in her hand, which contained some food.

"Come with us."

The two old men nodded again and again, first went to the mountains to hide for a while, and then looked at the situation outside.

As if sensing something, the little flower cub followed behind with the cub.

Wang Yongan carried the basket, with Enron on one side and various things on the other.

An Ran had a lot of things in his arms, and surrounded her.

Wang Yongping walked very steadily, thanks to the fact that he did a lot of work on weekdays, so this burden was not heavy at all.

"Dad, did the boys pick it up? Do you think Brother Ye can pick them up? ”

Fang Cuiying is worried about the children, they are in the county seat, and the Tyumen Mountains are remote, so the speed of receiving news will be very slow.

"Here they are!" Liu Chunlan hugged her son excitedly.

"Why did you arrive before us?"

Wang Yongye said with a smile: "I used to be wild in the past, and I knew where there was a shortcut." ”

A few boys are embarrassed, and the second uncle's shortcut is that there is no way, and he ran over to climb the slope.

"Okay, let's avoid the mountain first, and make plans when the situation outside is clear."

"Dad, there is chaos in the town outside, and I heard that it is the bandits in the mountains of Qingyi who are revolting."

"The imperial court oppressed the people too much, and many places could not grow grain, so some people took refuge in the mountain bandits."

Father Wang had heard of this gang of bandits, but it didn't harm them in this poor place.

Subsistence by snatching passing merchant ships, and small boats must pay protection fees.

Especially in recent years, it has become more and more rampant, and the number of gangs has continued to grow, which is also a major problem for the Qingyi County Government.
