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

"Cheng Wan! Girl Wan!"

"big cow!"

"Two cows!"

"It's all expensive!"

"Big rich!"

"Cousin!"

……

Loud shouts suddenly erupted from the rear of the team, startling the refugees at the front of the team.

"These people behind are crazy! What are you yelling about? This is Shuoyang City, it's really embarrassing!"

"It sounded like they were calling someone. Could it be that they met someone they knew?"

"How is that possible! This is Shuoyang City! How come they know someone here?!"

"Then how did they come to Shuoyang with us?"

"..."

……

At this time, the head of the refugee team was very close to the city gate, and Cheng Wan and the eight of them also heard someone calling them loudly.

Jia Quangui stared blankly at the group of people at the end of the refugee team, waving vigorously at them, and said blankly: "Are those the village chiefs? How come... everything is like this?"

Worse than a beggar.

Xu Dafu slapped Jia Quangui on the back, "They called our names, it must be the village chief and the others! They are almost here, we can go and greet them."

After just saying that, Xu Dafu turned around and wiped his tears with his sleeves.

The refugee team stopped. At the front, Han Tou was negotiating with the general soldiers guarding the city gate.

Cheng Wan and the others finally met with Village Chief Jia and the others. When they met, both of them had tears in their eyes.

"Clan leader, wuwuwu..."

Jia Quangui looked closely at Village Chief Jia in front of him, and could no longer hold back his hot tears.

Including Cheng Wan, the other seven people also had sore noses and moist eyes.

Really, Village Chief Jia and the others looked too miserable.

Their faces were dark and thin, their hair was as dirty as thatch soaked in muddy water, their lips were chapped, and many of them had blood stains on their lips.

The clothes of the children and women seemed to be just okay, at least they were not half-covering, but the clothes of the men were very dirty and torn, and the exposed skin was equally dark and thin. Some of the men had stains on their exposed arms. Lots of scars.

As for their feet, they were all wearing worn-out straw sandals, and many people had red marks on their feet.

That is blood.

With wet eyes, Village Chief Jia looked at Cheng Wan and the others one by one, looking at their clothes, shoes, complexions, and spirits. He kept nodding his head while looking at them.

"Okay, you're all fine, okay!"

Cheng Daniu sniffed and forced a smile, "Village Chief, we are now settled in Pingnan Village. Pingnan Village is not far from Lijia Village. You go to Pingnan Village with us first. My mother and the others have boiled bath water for you at home. , are cooking, you take a break in Pingnan Village, and then we will send you to Lijia Village."

"Also, it doesn't take so many people to settle in. It only takes one person from each family. Later, Erniu and I will take the people who are going to settle in and follow the official into the city. Village chief, you follow Ah Wan and the other six. Let’s go back first, so that we can feel more comfortable a little earlier.”

"Village chief, do you think this is okay?"

Village Chief Jia leaned against Jia Xiucheng and burst into tears.

"Okay! I'll listen... I'll listen to you."

Village Chief Jia has no objections, and of course others have no objections. Everyone knows that Lai is good.

Cheng Daniu got the consent of Village Chief Jia and others, and turned to look at Cheng Erniu who was also wiping his eyes and sniffing, "Second brother, go ahead and talk to the officials. The village chief and the others will only leave one person from each household to follow them. If you go and get settled, others won’t come to the city.”

"Sanzhu, Erping, you two go and catch two carriages."

They all came from the same village. At a glance, Cheng Daniu knew that these forty-three people belonged to eleven families, and it was no problem for two carriages to carry eleven people.

There was a lot of noise about Cheng Wan and the others recognizing Village Chief Jia and the others, which attracted the attention of many people.

Especially the refugees in front who were relatively well-off kept turning their heads to look at Village Chief Jia and the others.

Some of them had envy in their eyes that they didn't even notice.

Yes, envy.

When you arrive in a new place where you are unfamiliar with the place, it is indeed enviable to be picked up by someone you know or have a close relationship with at first sight.

At the very least, something happened, and I was no longer alone.

This envy reached its peak when they saw Li Sanzhu and Cheng Erping driving two carriages over.

"They also have carriages! Or two! That family's wealth is certainly not very poor!"

"I think there are more than two. Where the eight people were before, there are four horse-drawn carriages, a mule cart and an ox cart!"

"No way! Who does this family have to have so many cars? I don't think those eight people are dressed like a rich family!"

"Tsk, people should not be judged by their appearance. In the past, would you have thought that when we arrived in Shuoyang, it was the group of people behind us who found their way there first?"

"Then why don't we get close to each other? You might as well have to ask for help from someone else in the future."

"I'm going to go to you. I didn't even talk to anyone on the way. I'm sorry."

……

Some people in the team looked at Village Chief Jia and the others with envy, while others were still bored and dismissive of Village Chief Jia and the others.

There were also people who didn't respond to this, such as the three families in the team who had cars, and people came to pick them up.

Cheng Wan and the others didn't know or care about the various reactions in the team.

At this time, the people from the eleven households who were going to settle down were preparing to get on the carriage.

Jia Xiucheng clutched his household registration number, looked at the clean carriage in front of him, and said sheepishly: "Let's go on foot. We've already reached here anyway, and we don't have to miss the last bit of the journey."

"Yes, yes, we have Ba Tai buried in us, this..."

The other man said embarrassedly.

"Oh, if it's dirty, just rinse it with water and it'll be clean. What's the big deal? Stop talking nonsense and get in the car. I see the front is starting to move."

Cheng Erniu pulled Jia Xiucheng towards the car.

Village Chief Jia looked at the twelve people with a smile and advised: "Go up quickly, don't let Daniel and the others down."

Among the twelve people, one was a child who did not want to be separated from her mother.

So I just brought them all together.

Cheng Wan felt that it was thanks to the fact that in ancient times there was no requirement that there must be a male in the family before a household could be established, otherwise the mother and daughter would be in trouble.

Just as the twelve people were getting on the bus, Cheng Wan saw Cheng Erniu leading a government servant over.

It's Han Tou.

Han Tou looked at Cheng Wan and Village Chief Jia expressionlessly. Cheng Wan thought that Han Tou did not agree to allow only one person from each household to settle down.

Unexpectedly, although Han Tou looked cold, his tone was quite gentle.

"It's not easy to meet acquaintances. You are also lucky. When you go somewhere and live a good life, you can always start your life again."

A few simple words made Village Chief Jia and the others wipe their tears again.

Village Chief Jia said in a hoarse voice: "Han Tou, thank you very much for this trip."

"It's just a matter of duty."

Han Tou looked at the two carriages next to him and said, "Let's go when you're ready to get settled."
