Chapter 16: I Spent a Tael of Silver! A full one or two!
After listening to Shen Yu's explanation, Shen An Jiangxue nodded approvingly.
Although Shen An is not young, he has been farming all the year round, and he has very little experience in escaping from the famine, and he even looks a little immature in front of Shen Yu.
"That's fine! We'll pack up our things and get out before the gates close at dawn. ”
After speaking, Shen An and Fan Yingxue cleaned up, Baoyu and Xiyu didn't eat anymore, and helped their father and mother stuff everything into the back basket together.
Hearing that Shen Yu was leaving, Jiang Xue felt a little lost in her heart, if she could follow Shen Yu and the others, then the people of their Jiang clan might be able to make it to the capital alive.
But there are so many of them, and it is a burden to follow others.
At that time, the yellow sand outside the city was permeated, and Chu County Ling stood at the gate of the city and sighed helplessly.
"Hey! The sky is going to die, our Huangyue County! The wind and sand are so big that I am afraid that they will flood the entire county! ”
The master was observing the words and expressions beside him, and stepped forward and said carefully:
"Lord County Commander, let's remove the porridge shed, as soon as we open the lid of the pot, it is full of sand, as for this city gate, should it be closed?"
At this time, on the streets of the county, the sand was already able to bury his feet, and the county magistrate nodded helplessly:
"Let the guards close the gates! Inform everyone to evacuate early tomorrow morning! Huangyue County can't stay any longer! ”
The master nodded: "Lord County Commander, shouldn't we also pack up and set off?" You have to keep yourself safe so that you can continue to protect the people of Dawn. ”
"Go ahead, clean up, and remember to lock up that bastard of Mo Han! Don't let him come out again until tomorrow morning! ”
"Yes!"
At the gate of the city, the guards were holding spears to close the gates, and a man's roar came from the yellow sand!
"Bad master! Other! Don't close the door! Wait for us! ”
Shenyang pulled his son and daughter-in-law and rushed into the city gate.
Mrs. Shen and her granddaughter Shen Zhaodi were locked out of the door, and Mrs. Shen angrily twisted her granddaughter's arm!
"It's all your fault, you cheap embryo! On the road, it is not said that the leg hurts, or the foot hurts! Look at your hypocrisy! What can I do now? ”
Mrs. Shen hurriedly knocked on the door and shouted:
"Dick! Say good things to the officials! Let us in! ”
Listening to the knock of the city gate, the officials frowned.
"Captain, this old woman is so noisy, why don't you cut it?!"
Hearing this, Shen Yang frowned! He has nothing to cherish for his mother, and he doesn't care about his daughter's life and death, but the last piece of fine bacon is in Mrs. Shen's back basket!
"Bad master! Outside the door, that's my mother and my daughter! Can you let them in? It's not easy for us to escape the famine. ”
Looking at Shen Yang's pleading, the official smiled disdainfully.
"Want me to open the door? What kind of thing are you! If you don't stab you to death, it's polite! Get lost! ”
Song Qingyue dragged the corner of Shenyang's clothes desperately, and the son next to her was about to cry:
"Husband, let's go! Our family will all die here in a while! Xi Chung is still waiting to continue the incense for the old Song family! ”
But Shen Yang was still reluctant to take that piece of bacon, so he took out a tael of silver and handed it to the official with a flattering face.
"Bad master! Take it to tea, please raise your noble hand and let my mother and daughter in! It's really not easy for our family. ”
The official who got the silver snorted coldly: "If you have the silver, don't take it out earlier!" Waste so much of my tongue! ”
The official opened the crack in the door, and Mrs. Shen and Shen Zhaodi rushed in!
"Thank you! Thank you, all of you! ”
Shen Yang snorted coldly, pulled his son and left the city gate.
"Mother! Hurry up and keep up! Don't be left behind! For you, I spent a tael of silver! A full one or two! ”
Looking at Old Lady Shen, Song Qingyue was not so polite, with a hint of disgust in her eyes.
At such an age, he is a burden on the way to escape from the wilderness, and he eats a lot, like a sow!
Before the eldest brother was here, he could still rely on the old lady to grab some silver and two flowers, but now without the eldest brother, the old woman is useless at all!
"Oops!"
With a bang, the old lady shouted, and then fell heavily to the ground.
When Shenyang looked back, his face was even more ugly! I used to think that my mother was good at everything, but now how do you think it's a complete burden?!
"What are you doing! Pick me up! How do I feel like my knees are broken! ”
Shen Yang frowned and helped the old lady up, and the blood on this leg flowed down her calf.
If you look closely, there is a sharp tea cup fragment where the old lady fell, and I don't know who threw it.
"It shouldn't be a big deal, mother, let's find a place to settle down first! I don't know where I'm going to sleep tonight. ”
Although the old lady was dissatisfied, it was only like this for now.
Walking to a remote and seemingly uninhabited courtyard in the county, Shenyang pushed the door open!
The three or five big men inside looked at the few people in front of them suspiciously.
"Sorry guys, I didn't know there was anyone! Let's go now! ”
"Stop! When what kind of place do we have here, you can come and go when you want? ”
After Dahan finished speaking, he threw the machete directly and nailed it to the door panel!
Shenyang was almost scared when he saw this! I froze in place and didn't know what to do.
"What should I do, Xianggong!" Song Qingyue nervously tugged at her son's arm, and her whole body trembled because of nervousness.
"Humph! Put the back basket down for me! The man walked up to them with a sneer, carrying a steel knife.
How could Mrs. Shen be willing to put down the back basket, for the sake of the vegetables in the back basket, she did not hesitate to desperately separate from her eldest son, and carried such a long way, now let her put it all down?!
"Young man, don't be unreasonable, you want to eat, we'll give you a little, otherwise we're going to starve to death?!"
Hearing this, the man buttoned his ears and put the machete on Shen Yang's neck.
"Stinky old woman! Don't talk nonsense with Lao Tzu! I repeat, put the basket down for me, or your son's head will move!" ”
Shen Yang peed his pants in fright, and roared tremblingly:
"Give it to him! Give them it! ”
The cold and hard machete was against his neck, and Shenyang couldn't wait to tear his mother in half directly!
Looking at the man's fierce appearance, Mrs. Shen reluctantly took off the back basket!
I thought that the people in the village were intrigued, but I didn't expect that when I arrived in the city, there were robbers everywhere! How will I live my life after this?
I saw that the back basket was full of tattered sweet potatoes and turnips! The man's heart is furious!
I thought it was something good! I didn't expect it to be a bunch of!
"Master, we put things here, can we go?" Shen Yang asked cautiously, for fear that the man would stab himself in the neck!
"Let?! Just want to leave with this broken sweet potato? Get under my crotch! I'll let you go! ”
When a man looks at Shenyang's thin appearance, he knows that he is a scholar, and what he hates most in his life is the little white face of reading!
Because his daughter-in-law thought he was vulgar, she ran away with a little white face who was reading!
Seeing this, the people on the side came over to coax!
"That's right! Get under our crotch! I'll let you go! Otherwise, your daughter-in-law will have to stay tonight! ”
A small man with a sharp beak and monkey cheeks next to him looked at Song Qingyue with a wicked smile, and Shen Yang was stunned when he saw it!
