The widowed sister-in-law is embarrassed, she criticizes the villain like he only wants to be a love

Not long after Wang Dahua died, Yan Tieniu followed.

Many people also died in the other three villages. The young and strong bodies had strong bones and could hold on for the time being. Most of the people who died were the elderly and children in the village.

The corpse must be disposed of as soon as possible. The ancients emphasized that the corpse of a loved one should not be left in the wilderness.

In the end, several village chiefs worked together and chose a wasteland near Cangtong County to temporarily bury Yan Tieniu, Wang Dahua and other villagers who died of illness here, and then move their graves here when they return one day.

It was almost noon after all the bodies were buried.

As the team entered Cangtong County, Yan Shu looked around curiously.

The streets are sparsely populated, and occasionally you can see a few waves of refugees looking for food. The local people fled with their families a few days ago.

Most of these refugees had fled from Rongcheng. They had pried open the shops of all sizes on the roadside. If they couldn't pry open, they smashed the doors. Even if there were any valuables inside, they had been robbed.

Some greedy villagers would not give up and would take a look at food shops, jewelry shops, pawn shops, etc., but naturally they returned disappointed.

Uncle Seventh said to Yan Fugui: "How many days can we last with the water we brought down from the mountain?"

"I guess everyone can take advantage of it for a day or two."

The seventh uncle looked solemn and began to think deeply.

They will leave Cangtong County early tomorrow morning. It will still take five or six days to reach the next county. During this period, it may be difficult to find water sources.

"We may be able to find water sources in a place as big as Cangtong County. Let the villagers organize it and let all the able-bodied workers go to the city to continue looking for water."

"Okay, I'll give the order right now."

After a while, Yan Fugui shouted to the villagers: "The old, weak, women and children stay where they are and wait. The others will follow me to the city to continue looking for water."

After hearing this, the villagers organized themselves into groups, and the [-] team began to walk towards the main city.

The second room of the Yan family chose to rest under a big tree on the side of the road.

Yan Huai tied Brother Donkey to the tree trunk and unloaded the cart from Brother Donkey.

Yan Shu ate some Lingshan grass for Brother Donkey, and fed him a basin of Lingquan water. She looked at Brother Donkey carefully for a while, then reached out and touched Brother Donkey's head.

"Brother Donkey, how come you've gained weight after working hard all day?"

Brother Donkey blinked his big Kazilan eyes, and his big black bright eyes turned again and again.

I complained in my heart, you blind person, I am not fat but I am strong!

Yan Huai raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead.

"When we look for water later, let's go to the courtyard of a deep house. There may be a viewing lake or something that hasn't completely dried up yet."

Yan Ersheng shook his head: "The city is full of refugees now. They must have dug through the entire Cangtong County. If there were any lakes that hadn't dried up, they would have robbed them all."

Yan Wen and Yan Wu placed the baskets they were carrying on the ground. Yan Wu lifted up the corners of his clothes and wiped them on his red face.

"Since the village chief has arranged to find water, let's not just sit around and try our luck."

Yan Shu came over with a smile while carrying a few bamboo tubes: "Don't worry, sit down and drink some water first."

She gave each person a bamboo tube.

When Jiang Ci reached out to take it, he felt a chill in his hand.

Yan Ersheng, Liu Wenniang and the three brothers of the Yan family also felt that there was something different about today's bamboo tube.

A few people curiously opened the lid, and a blast of cold air hit their faces instantly.

Yan Wu's dark eyes suddenly lit up, he put the bamboo tube to his mouth and took a sip, pursing his lips in recollection.

He whispered: "Little sister, is this mung bean soup?"

"Well, drink it to relieve the heat."

"okay!"

Yan Wu happily drank a few big sips, feeling a chill in his stomach, and instantly felt much cooler.

Yan Shu sat on the floor next to Liu Wenniang, opened the lid of the bamboo tube in his hand, and drank slowly.

Yan Ersheng, Liu Wenniang and the three brothers of the Yan family were very curious about how Yan Shu turned the mung bean soup into ice cold.

But now there are many people with mixed eyes, so they very wisely don’t ask anything.

Jiang Ci had seen the strange-looking large cabinet in the kitchen. The little fox said it was called a refrigerator. It could not only refrigerate items to keep them fresh but also make ice.

At that time, he was filled with admiration. It was indeed a treasure from the immortal world.

-

In a courtyard in the North City, several guards flew into the courtyard.

One of them walked straight towards the study.

"Knock knock!"

A low and pleasant male voice came from inside the door.

"Come in!"

The guard opened the door and walked in, saluting the man in the room respectfully.

"Your Majesty, a group of villagers entered the city today and are currently looking for water sources in Chengdu. It seems that they will stay here tonight!"

The man was wearing a dark brocade robe, with a handsome appearance and a cool and noble temperament. He was sitting at the desk, reading a letter in his hand.

"Are you sure he's an ordinary villager?"

"I'm sure you know some of them and the Crown Prince."

Xiao Yan's sword eyebrows moved slightly, and a pair of cold eyes shot at the guard in front of him.

"Who?"

Facing his master's cold look, Qingyun didn't dare to show off.

"Master Jiang is also in the team."

Jiang Ci?

Xiao Yan was a little confused. With Jiang Ci's identity, how could he flee with the villagers?

"Who else besides Jiang Ci?"

"There are also Miss Yan and Young Master Yan."

Xiao Yan played with the ruby ​​ring on his left thumb, a hint of anticipation flashing between his cold brows.

I didn't expect to meet again so soon.

"Send someone to watch them."

"Yes!"

-

Yan Shu, Jiang Ci and the three brothers of the Yan family went out to look for water.

Cangtong County is the most important land hub for north-south commerce, and is more prosperous than Chiyang County.

If it hadn't been for the invasion of Rong and Di and the years of famine, this town would have been prosperous in the past.

Jiang Ci said: "Most of the rich people in Cangtong County live in Beicheng. We can go there and have a look."

Yan Shu asked curiously: "My uncle knows Cangtong County very well?"

"I don't know much about it. There are several classmates in Hongle Academy who are from Cangtong County. I occasionally hear them mention a few words."

Yan Shu knew that most of the students who could study in Hongle Academy came from well-off families.

"Then let's go directly to Beicheng."

Yan Wen smiled and said, "Listen to Erlang and my little sister."

Yan Wu and Yan Huai also had no objection.

With the goal in mind, the group of five people headed straight for Beicheng.

Arriving at Beicheng, Yan Shu clearly felt that the surrounding environment was better, the roads were wider, and there were many deep houses and courtyards nearby.

"Eldest brother, second brother, third brother, let's split up. The row of houses opposite will be given to you three, and this row will be given to me and my uncle."

Jiang Ci agreed: "This can save a lot of time."

"Then let's arrange it like this. The second and third sons will come with me, and the younger sister will be taken care of by Lao Erlang."

Jiang Ci nodded in agreement: "Don't worry, brother, I will protect my sister-in-law."

With Jiang Ci following Yan Shu, the three brothers of the Yan family have nothing to worry about.

After the five people separated, Yan Shu and Jiang Ci walked into the first house.
