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

Village Chief Jia and his second son left.

Cheng Daniu and Cheng Erniu looked at Cheng Wan with pride in their eyes.

Cheng Erping gave Cheng Wan a thumbs up, "Awan, I think your analysis is very reasonable! You are indeed my sister!"

Cheng Daping nudged Cheng Erping lightly, raised his chin slightly, and said a little arrogantly: "Awan is my biological sister, dear! Born by a mother!"

Cheng Wan touched her nose. What she said to Village Chief Jia was really a blind analysis based on the common sense and common sense she knew. There was no accurate basis.

Who would have thought that everyone, including Village Chief Jia, thought what she said was particularly reasonable.

In fact, Cheng Wan fell into a misunderstanding.

Modern times are an era of information explosion. She has lived in modern times for twenty years, and the knowledge she has learned and acquired through the Internet, books, and classes is very extensive.

This knowledge is not visible on weekdays, but it does shape a person bit by bit.

It affects a person's thinking invisibly but profoundly.

This is also the biggest difference between Cheng Wan and ordinary people in ancient times.

Of course, Cheng Wan's little "strategy" pales in comparison to someone who actually plays politics.

Village Chief Jia and the others felt that what Cheng Wan said was particularly reasonable.

First, Cheng Wan's analysis was in the same direction as what they expected.

Second, Cheng Wan's thinking level is indeed beyond theirs.

The real situation is exactly as Cheng Wan analyzed.

The leader who was sent to Qingyuan County to assist and supervise the Qingyuan County government's military recruitment heard the report from his subordinates. When he learned that there was still a village where people who escaped had not been recovered, he had already thought of coercing the Qingyuan County magistrate. He concealed the matter altogether.

That number of people is really not worth the fuss, so we continue to waste time chasing after them.

The most important thing is that if this matter is known to the superiors, not only will he not be rewarded for conscription, but he will also be punished for it.

Anyway, the war has started, and it's not certain how many days that group of people can survive.

Yes, while Cheng Wan and the others were rushing on their way crazily during the day, at the junction of Ganzhou and Ningzhou, the war between the new emperor and the king of An began.

This leader's idea is exactly what the Qingyuan County magistrate wants.

If there is even the slightest possibility, the Qingyuan County magistrate does not want to force men to serve as soldiers.

Now that hundreds of people had finally escaped capture, he was eager to hide the escape of this group of people from the people above.

As for how long and how well this group of people can survive under the flames of war, it all depends on their abilities.

In the backyard of the county government office, at the entrance of the Qingyuan County magistrate's study.

Xu Zhinian and Chun Wenzheng were waiting in panic for Magistrate Xu to return.

Suddenly, Xu Zhinian's eyes lit up and he quickly ran to the person.

"Dad, how's it going? Have the people who escaped from Jiajia Village been caught?"

Magistrate Xu has a straight face and elegant temperament.

He shook his head, "Your friend is lucky. Only the people who escaped from Jiajia Village were not caught, and the three soldiers who started chasing them didn't come back. I wonder if there was an accident."

Obviously, Magistrate Xu did not think that the people in Jiajia Village would be so bold as to kill soldiers.

"What about the future? Will there be someone to catch them back in the future?"

Xu Zhinian's heart did not let go.

"No one will chase them in the future. It's just that the outside world is not peaceful. How they can live depends on themselves."

"call!"

Xu Zhinian stroked his chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

Chunwen, who lowered his head behind him, also took a long and quiet breath, thinking: "It seems that Miss Cheng is safe for the time being."

"Dad, I believe in my friend, she is so smart, she will definitely live well."

Magistrate Xu smiled gently and did not comment on this. He just looked at Xu Zhinian and said, "Nian Nian, dad plans to arrange for someone to send you two siblings to your uncle's house tomorrow."

Xu Zhinian's eyes widened instantly, "Why? Did something happen?"

Magistrate Xu sighed, "The new emperor and King An are already fighting. We are too close to the junction and are easily affected by the war. And in case of King An,"

County Magistrate Xu stopped talking and repeated his arrangement: "When you go back later, let the maid pack your luggage. Tomorrow morning, dad will arrange for someone to send you and your brother off."

Xu Zhinian tossed his sleeves and said seriously: "I won't! I won't leave. I want to be with my parents. Dad, just arrange for someone to send my little brother away."

Magistrate Xu touched Xu Zhinian's head lovingly, "Go back and rest early."

Magistrate Xu stood there and watched Xu Zhinian's leaving figure, the kindness and gentleness on his face disappeared.

"Have the escorts for the young lady and the young master been confirmed?"

The old housekeeper bowed his head respectfully, "It's confirmed, the ones chosen are all good people in the house."

"Ah."

The old housekeeper looked at his master's somewhat lonely back and said hesitantly: "Master, is the situation bad enough to send the young lady and the young master away? It will be fine tomorrow."

"I thought it would be King An who would attack the emperor first. Who would have thought that our emperor would take him by surprise and suddenly send troops to attack Zhuocheng. Fortunately, Zhuocheng was making preparations before the war, and then the city was defended. However,"

Magistrate Xu sighed, "It's just that I'm always worried that the emperor's army will attack soon. If I don't send the young lady and the young master away now, I'm afraid I won't be able to do anything to send them away later."

"Then why don't the master take his wife and leave with the young lady and the boy?"

Magistrate Xu shook his head, "There are still so many people here. What will happen to them if I leave? I have to stay here. Once I find anything wrong with the situation, I will quickly inform the people to flee the county."

"As for Madam," Magistrate Xu said with a smile, "Madam will never be willing to leave."

After being married for many years, we know each other best.

Cheng Wan was completely unaware of all the above.

She was cooking at the moment.

I only had one meal in the morning all day today, so I was starving.

During the meal, two episodes occurred.

The first episode is that the man and his family, who had been targeted by soldiers with arrows and almost died at the hands of soldiers, were grateful for Cheng Wan's life-saving grace and gave the Cheng family fifteen freshly baked white-flour steamed buns. .

The other party thanked her very sincerely, even if she didn't accept the white-flour steamed buns.

The second episode comes from Mrs. Song’s house.

During the meal, Mrs. Song brought a large plate of scrambled eggs to the Cheng family.

He said that several of the eggs he brought from home were broken, so he scrambled the broken eggs.

I couldn't finish the meal, so I gave some to the Cheng family.

That was scrambled eggs, such a rare dish, how could I not finish it.

What the two families knew well was that the plate of eggs was specially fried by Mrs. Song's family for the Cheng family. In order to thank Cheng Wan for taking the initiative to give Mrs. Song's family a horse.

What the Cheng family didn't know was that Mrs. Song brought this plate of scrambled eggs for another reason.

In order to show the villagers that his family has a good relationship with the Cheng family.

Otherwise, as most of the people in the team were jealous of the horse, it would be difficult to live in peace during the rest of the journey.

However, as long as it didn't affect the Cheng family's journey, Cheng Wan didn't pay much attention to why Mrs. Song came.

Everyone in the Cheng family knew why Cheng Wan gave the horse to Mrs. Song's house, so they naturally refused to accept the scrambled eggs.

But Mrs. Song gave her too sincerely, and she almost overturned the plate when she and Mrs. Lin were pushing and refusing.

In the end, Mrs. Lin accepted the plate of scrambled eggs, and then forced four white-flour steamed buns to Mrs. Song, asking her to take them back to her grandson and granddaughter.

During this process, Cheng Wan only focused on cooking.

Forgive her, she is really not good at dealing with this kind of situation where you push me away and you are polite to each other.
