As soon as these words came out, all the villagers became agitated, constantly trying to vent their pain by roaring and yelling. The entire open space seemed to explode all at once, making Gu Jiu's brain buzz.

"Village chief, this doll of my family is going to take the exam next year, and now that I'm leaving, haven't I prepared in vain after so many years?"

The gate of the nearest county town to them was closed, and they had to go farther to survive, but in this case, there was not enough time. It stands to reason that Gu Wensheng should be the most nervous person, but now he didn't say a word.

The village chief kept reassuring everyone: "Folks, not only us, but some families in our nearby villages have already moved away, and the later we are, the less good we will be!" But no matter what the village chief said, everyone refused to agree to move out, and many women even sat on the ground and cried.

"Isn't there still the Zhao family in the town? I had money before, but I said that as long as the villagers are in trouble, he will definitely help! ”

I don't know who shouted, everyone quieted down all of a sudden, and they looked around for Gu Youcai and Zhao Xiu'er, but what was surprising was that these two people didn't come today. Looking at everyone's eyes, Gu Jiu secretly said that something was wrong, pushed aside the crowd, and quickly ran home.

When people are cornered, they are most likely to do things impulsively!

Sure enough, not long after Gu Jiu left, everyone became restless and hateful, as if the reason why they were uprooted was because Gu Youcai and Zhao Xiu'er didn't help them.

"Sister, what's wrong with you?"

"Quick...... It's too late to get something to block the door. Gu Jiu gasped and commanded Gu Jing and Ye Qing to push the wooden cabinet behind the door.

Before I could get everything ready, there was a shouting at the gate outside.

"Gu Youcai! Hurry out, everyone in the village is starving to death, you can't just hide from yourself and eat delicious food! ”

"Just, get out of here and open the door, or we'll hit the door!"

The old man Gu in the main room naturally heard the sound outside, and immediately went out with the old lady Gu, looking outside through the gap, the old man Gu was immediately startled.

"Old man, they won't be here to steal food! Why don't we close the door! No one will be allowed in! ”

"You're stupid! There are so many people, let alone blocking, people can come in when they step on people. Old Man Gu was so anxious that he landed on the ground with his crutches one after another, and suddenly pointed to Gu Youcai's house, and said, "These people are all here to find them, let them solve it!" ”

When the words fell, Mrs. Gu hurriedly went into the house to call someone, but the two people who concealed the truth didn't dare to come out at all.

Seeing that there was no response for a long time, the people outside the door began to threaten.

"Old man Gu, old man Gu! Your Wensheng and Zhe Qike are all in our hands! If you don't come out, don't blame the villagers for being hungry, then they will exchange rice and meat! ”

"That's right! If you don't open the door, you're welcome! ”

Immediately followed by the voices of the village chief and Gu Youcai.

"Folks, calm down, it's not irreversible yet, everyone will think of a way to discuss it carefully!"

"If you are like this, when your children are admitted to the Tongsheng Examination, don't say that I, Gu Wensheng, will wear dead shoes for them? Our family doesn't have much food, and if we can really get so much food, our father and son won't go to the town every day to wait for relief from the imperial court! “

When he saw Gu Jiu running, Gu Wensheng immediately realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly ran over and pulled Gu Zhiqi to run, but they were surrounded by everyone who reacted in just a few seconds.

In addition to the current situation, Gu Wensheng is quite calm, but Gu Zhiqi is not good, he came today to give advice to everyone and receive appreciation, and now he is being viciously put on his head and suddenly becomes a paste.

"Gu Wensheng, it's really not that the brothers don't give you face, everyone is starving to death, how can you manage so much! You say you haven't eaten, who will believe you! In the days when the people in the village ran out of food, the smell of meat wafted out of your house every day! You can still send meat-filled dumplings during the New Year, how could you not eat them! ”

"The people inside, I count to three, and if I don't open the door, I'll slam the door!"

"Three!"

Hearing that Gu Zhiqi was also outside, Mrs. Gu immediately panicked, and pulled Zhao Xiu'er out vigorously: "You hurry up and go out and talk to them about the big deal to give them something to eat!" If a group of five big and three rough people really hurt Zhi Qi, it will be troublesome! ”

Zhao stubbornly broke the door frame and refused to go out at all.

"Two!"

Old Mrs. Gu turned her head to look at the door, and suddenly became even more anxious, and hurriedly shouted outside: "Soon, quickly, let's go out." ”

Turning his head to look at Zhao, he reproached: "You should hurry up, that Xiaoqi is your biological daughter, can you give it to you if you open your mouth!" ”

Zhao turned his head to look at Gu Youcai, who was standing on the side, and suddenly couldn't help crying: "Mother! Xiao Qi is dead! That bun was used by the Zhao family to buy out the relationship between the two families, and after receiving the buns, they will never be able to find their Zhao family in the future! ”

Old Mrs. Gu was stunned: "What nonsense are you talking about?" Xiao Qi is so big, how can a person say that if he doesn't, it's gone? If it wasn't, why didn't you say it before? ”

"I, I'm afraid of affecting Hachi...... I want Xiaoba to have a good place to go, mother, daughter-in-law really doesn't want to come to food! ”

"One! It's broken! ”

With the sound of banging, Old Man Gu hurriedly shouted to stop and opened the door, and said, "Everyone, your food is not stolen by our family, and it is not appropriate to block us here at the moment!" Village Chief, do you think that's the reason? ”

"Yes, folks, calm down, let's discuss it...... Huh! ”

One of them saw Zhao Xiu'er with sharp eyes, and everyone looked in the direction of his finger, and instantly rushed into the courtyard in a swarm, squeezing the village chief aside.

Seeing someone coming, Zhao Xiuer subconsciously ran into the house, and was pulled out before she could close the door.

The leader is an old desperate family in the village, who has no children and no daughters, and he has been too lazy to eat for a long time, and he has lived until now by stealing chickens and dogs and killing shamelessly. Now that there is an opportunity to ask for something in this gear, he naturally rushes faster than anyone else.

"Zhao Xiu'er, everyone is starving to death right now, what you said at that time should be fulfilled!"

Zhao Xiu'er shook her head, frightened by the scene in front of her: "It's not that I don't want to help you, but I really can't help!" Xiao Qi died, and was tortured to death by that Aunt Zhao......"

Hearing the word death, everyone suddenly came back to their senses, looked at the tearful Zhao, and suddenly remembered for a while that Aunt Zhao was indeed not a good stubble. The Zhao family is rich, but almost no one is willing to marry their daughter, just because they are afraid that their daughter will have a short life after she passes. It's just that after Gu Qi got married, they only heard the benefits, and they really felt that Gu Qi had become a wife and was blessed in the past.

Thinking of this, several women breathed a sigh of relief, they had thought that they would go over their daughters if they were really starving, but fortunately they didn't! It's better to starve to death than to be tortured to death by outsiders!

Seeing that many people showed sympathetic expressions, the leader immediately quit: "Then why didn't you say it earlier, you say this now because you want to watch the villagers starve to death?" ”

Zhao shook his head and cried, and the village chief finally squeezed in from behind: "Old Niu, you ...... first"

The courtyard was full of people, and there were always a few impure minds among the people who were oppressed, and two of them took advantage of the chaos to find food.

"Brother, this house can't be opened! It looks like something is blocking it. ”

"If you push harder, maybe the food is hidden in here."

Gu Jiu listened to the voice outside the door and waved his hand at Gu Jing and Ye Qingyi, signaling them not to care, there were so many things piled up that the two of them couldn't open it.

"Brother can't do it, this door can't be opened, let's not change it, this person is noticed by people with a lot of eyes, it's not easy for us to start."

"Okay."

The leader didn't want the matter to be left like this, and it was not interesting to embarrass a person who had lost his daughter, and finally let go of his hand in disappointment under the persuasion of the village chief. At this time, many people reacted, wanting to find something to eat, and after a few flips, they were finally gotten out by Old Man Gu and the village chief.

"Old man, if your family has nothing to eat, pack up your things and go with everyone. These days, nothing is more important than life. ”

Old Man Gu nodded, and immediately began to check the grain after he went back, and sure enough, except for the ten catties of noodles that he hid, the rest were gone.

"Ahh Old, old man, what can I do here! Old Lady Gu looked at the empty room, and her hands trembled for a while.

Old Man Gu looked at Gu Zhiqi who was standing in the courtyard, and after being silent for a long time, he finally got up and walked to the house of Gu Jiu and the three of them.

"Xiao Jiu, grandpa knows that you are inside, escaping from the famine is not what you imagined, since this group of people can come to find Shangcai today, they will naturally dare to rob your mother and mother tomorrow. Anyway, you are also the granddaughter of my old man Gu, so let's discuss the matter of escaping the famine later. ”

Without food, they are bound to leave, and now they suddenly succumb to it, but they only remember that Gu Jiu still has a wild goose and two rabbits there. Last time he found out that one of the rabbits was pregnant, presumably by this time. With this food, it is enough for them to last a few more days.

Gu Jiuji slowly moved the things in the house, opened the door and walked out, and said, "We won't run away from the famine, just now I thought of a way to get food." Grandpa, you wait at home, granddaughter will go to the village chief now. ”

Saying that, Gu Jiu quickly ran out of the house, and after she left, Gu Jing and Ye Qingyi blocked the door again.

Out of the door, Gu Jiu was stopped by Lao Shatou after he didn't take a few steps, looking at the person with an obscene face, Gu Jiu frowned, and said, "Something?" ”

"Hehe, naturally, I haven't had enough food recently, so I'm looking for you to get it. Of course, if you don't want to give it, I can tell the old man that you instructed me to change the meat! When the time comes, you won't be able to eat and walk around! ”
