Started as a thatched house and ended up as a female figure

Close to the base of the city wall, a place where there is no one else.

The leading government officer looked at this group of refugees who described themselves as miserable and terrified, and asked, "Do you recognize a girl named Cheng Wan? Her original household registration is Jiajia Village, Qingyuan County, Fuwen County, Ganzhou."

The leading yamen officer suddenly worried that he might have recognized the wrong person.

???

!!!

Village Chief Jia and the others widened their eyes in astonishment.

When the leading yamen officer saw their reactions, he understood everything immediately.

"You have met a noble person. You have been asked to follow the team going to Shuoyang to settle in Shuoyang. You will be settled in Lijia Village as a civilian household.

You should know about Shuoyang City, right? That was the first administration of Liangzhou.

Shuoyang City is divided into four counties: east, west, north and south. The Lijia Village you want to settle in belongs to Shuonan County. "

After the leading officer finished speaking, he saw the group of refugees in front of him with their eyes wide open and their mouths open, unresponsive.

The leading yamen officer understood. If he were suddenly told that a noble man was trying to get him when he was cornered and desperate, he would probably have the same reaction.

The leading yamen officer did not rush him and waited patiently for the group in front of him to react.

After a long while, Village Chief Jia trembled his lips and took a trembling step forward, his eyes full of disbelief and suspicion.

"Master, are you mistaken? We just came to Liangzhou and don't know any noble people."

Village Chief Jia's heart felt like it was on fire. While he was excited about what the leading yamen officer said, he could not help but suspect that the leading yamen officer had admitted the wrong person.

Jia Xiucheng, who was behind Village Chief Jia, still held in his right hand the half bowl of gruel that Village Chief Jia had not drunk.

He was so anxious that he threw the old baggage he was carrying in his left hand to the ground, stepped forward and gently tugged on Village Chief Jia's clothes, and said anxiously: "Dad, didn't the officer just ask us if we knew Cheng Wan? Cheng Wan! Then She is the eldest granddaughter of the Cheng family in our village, we know each other! The noble person mentioned by the official is that girl Cheng Wan!"

Jia Xiucheng was anxious. He was afraid that he would offend the government officials and lose the little hope he had just seen.

Village Chief Jia ignored the anxious Jia Xiucheng and only looked at the leading government servant with a pair of old and cloudy eyes.

He hoped more than anyone else that the yamen officer was right.

The leading yamen official understood the mood of Village Chief Jia and others, and he knew that there were people in the group of refugees in front of him, so he did not make it difficult for Village Chief Jia and others, but had a good attitude.

"That's right, it's you. There are forty-three of you in total. Your original household registration is Jiajia Village, Qingyuan County, Fuwen County, Ganzhou. The village chief's name is Jia Guan."

Tears burst into the eyes of Village Chief Jia. He nodded vigorously and said in a hoarse voice: "That's right! That's right! My name is Jia Guan. Our original household registration is Jiajia Village, Qingyuan County, Fuwen County, Ganzhou. Cheng Wan is from our village. We Everyone recognizes her!”

Village Chief Jia cried so hard that his shoulders kept twitching. Jia Xiucheng handed the bowl to his nephew next to him and supported him with both hands, fearing that he would faint from crying accidentally.

But Jia Xiucheng himself was already in tears, and the tears mixed with the black stains on his face, making him look even dirtier.

Some refugees in the distance saw Chief Jia and his friends crying profusely, and saw two government officials. They thought it was Chief Jia and his friends who had committed a crime, and they were too scared to cry so miserably.

Thinking of this possibility, the refugees lowered their heads, for fear of attracting the attention of the government officials.

It's just that they couldn't help but sympathize with Village Chief Jia and the others, feeling that they must be in trouble.

The leading officer looked at the group of refugees in front of him who were crying uncontrollably and sighed.

"Stop crying. The team going to Shuoyang today will leave in half an hour. Come with us."

"Dad, drink the porridge quickly. Only then will you have the strength to go to Shuoyang."

Jia Xiucheng took the bowl handed over by his nephew and put it to Village Chief Jia's mouth.

Village Chief Jia did not refuse this time and drank half the bowl of porridge cleanly.

There is hope for the future again. He has to live, along with those villagers and family members who died.

Village Chief Jia and the others suppressed the boiling excitement in their hearts and followed the two government officials into the city with swaying steps. They did not stop until they reached a team.

The leading officer turned around and said: "This team is going to Shuoyang. You will follow Han Tou's command along the way. If you have any questions, just tell Han Tou."

As he said that, the leading yamen officer pointed to a tall and strong yamen officer not far away who was checking the roster, "That's Han Tou."

Jia Xiucheng felt a little panicked, "Master, won't you come with us?"

After being in contact with the leading yamen officer for a while, Jia Xiucheng felt that the leading yamen officer was very kind to them, and there was no contempt for them in his eyes.

I suddenly knew that I had to listen to the instructions of other officials along the way, and I felt a little panicked.

The leading yamen officer smiled and said, "Don't worry, the teacher in charge of the resettlement of refugees has given instructions. Han Tou will not make things difficult for you. You just need to follow the team closely and don't be left behind."

"How many households do you have in total?"

"Eleven households, we are eleven households."

Village Chief Jia said, a look of sadness flashed in his eyes.

There are only forty-three people in eleven households. One can imagine how many relatives they have lost.

The leading yamen officer nodded, "Liu Er, go find them some old clothes and some steamed buns, and I'll get them their household registration cards."

Liu Er was calling another Yamen servant.

The two government officials left in a hurry, and Village Chief Jia and the others watched uneasily as their backs gradually moved away.

"They will come back, right? Are they lying to us?"

There was a man with a hunched body and a dark face full of panic.

"Yes! They will definitely come back!"

Jia Sheng answered decisively.

"Think about it, we look like this and we are refugees. There is no need for this official to go to such lengths to deceive us."

"And if it wasn't true, how would they know about that girl Cheng Wan?"

Village Chief Jia nodded, he completely agreed with Jia Sheng's words.

Although Jia Sheng's words were very categorical, and Village Chief Jia seemed to agree with what Jia Sheng said, when they waited for a quarter of an hour and still couldn't see the two government servants coming back, Village Chief Jia and the others began to panic.

"Why haven't they come back yet? Is it time to come back?"

The woman who spoke held her child tightly and was trembling.

"Village Chief, have we been deceived? Are the two officials deliberately trying to make fun of us?"

"Then can we still go to Shuoyang and build a private household?"

……

Gave hope and fell into despair.

This feeling is the most painful. It would be better to be in despair from the beginning.

Village Chief Jia leaned against Jia Xiucheng, staring straight at the direction the leading Yamen servant left, his eyes full of red bloodshot eyes.

"Back! The official is back!"

"I saw it too! I'm really back!"

"There is an adult in official uniform in front of that official!"
