The whole village is fleeing famine, fortunately I have a concubine system

After hearing Xiaomi's explanation, Old Lady Wang's expression softened.

He squatted down and looked at Xiaomi at eye level.

She said earnestly, “Grandma knows that Guaibao is a capable boy.

But when she sees Guaibao in danger, grandma will worry."

As I was talking, I thought about today's situation. I still felt scared. It was like I was thinking about something bad.

Tears welled up in his eyes and his voice began to tremble.

"Yes, if something happens to you, how will I survive?"

As he said this, he hugged Xiaomi tightly in his arms.

Although when Xiaomi was just born, part of the reason why I was nice to Xiaomi was because of the dream I had at the beginning.

But humans are not grass and trees, so how can we be ruthless?

What’s more, this is a child that you raised with great effort, working day and night.

The child is very smart, filial and lovable.

Old Mrs. Wang has long regarded Xiaomi as more important than her own life.

Xiaomi noticed Mrs. Wang's mood and began to comfort her.

He also made a lot of promises, including never going to dangerous places or doing dangerous things again.

This is how you can appease Old Lady Wang.

Everyone was very tired, so after arranging people to keep watch all night, they fell into a deep sleep.

That night, no blind people came to make trouble.

At some point, a piece of news spread among the refugees.

There is a team with a big white tiger, which is very ferocious. Try not to mess with them. The tigers they bring can eat people.

It is said that someone saw with his own eyes that a tiger ate a person alive.

The screams of the people being eaten could be heard from far away.

This meant that as they continued to move forward, they kept seeing people looking at them with terrified eyes.

But this also saved them a lot of trouble. No one wanted to attack them anymore.

The closer you get to Fengcheng, the more you can feel the moisture in the air.

The trees and weeds on both sides of the road also indicate that Fengcheng did not experience that drought.

After more than twenty days of walking, they finally arrived at the gate of Fengcheng.

There were several sheds at the city gate, with large barrels in the sheds, and hot steam was still rising from them.

The buckets were filled with hot porridge, and in every shed there were disaster victims queuing up to get the porridge.

There was a table next to the city wall on the other side.

Several people dressed as yamen runners stood on both sides of the table. A middle-aged man in a green gown sat upright on a chair.

Wang Chengzi asked the people around him.

Fengcheng can now accept disaster victims. All you need to do is take your household registration to where the man is and register.

Once the government office verifies the number of people, they will be randomly relocated to various villages.

After Wang Chengzi told Qian Lizheng and others what had happened, Clan Leader Qian's brows were still furrowed.

This means that their people will be relocated to different places.

In that case, the Qian family would be dispersed, and there might not be any Qian family anymore.

This was what he least wanted to see, but there was no other way now, so he could only hand over the household registration to the man for record.

The important thing is to settle down first.

Qian Lizheng collected everyone's household registration, and then Qian Yongye helped them to register the information.

He walked to the side of the man in green shirt, bowed, and respectfully placed the household registration on the table.

He said: "How are you, sir? I am the head of Hehua Village in Meng County.

This is the complete household registration of 43 households and 268 people in our village.

Please have a look at it, sir."

The man in blue paused slightly as he looked at the household registration document.

He looked up at Qian Lizheng, feeling somewhat surprised.

I didn't expect that this plain-looking old man brought all the people with him.

Not only was there no shortage of people, but there was no numbness in their eyes like the other victims.

This made him curious and gave him a better impression of Lotus Village.

When I came across Qian Yongye’s household registration, I took a second look at it.

"Scholar?"

"I'm ashamed. I just passed the college entrance examination last year."

The man nodded. “Not bad.”

Soon, the household registration was reviewed and the man recorded it on paper and said to Qian Lizheng, "Okay, in about three days, someone will take you to your respective resettlement sites.

You guys just wait outside the city for the next few days."

Qian Lizheng bent over and nodded repeatedly to express his gratitude.

The man paused, then said, “Send someone to the city to check.

But you have to be out before dark."

After saying that, he started to close his eyes and relax.

Qian Lizheng saw that the man no longer wanted to talk to them, so he let Qian Yongye support him and leave.

After returning to the camp, he let Qian Yongye and the villagers talk and he didn't say anything else.

He just sat there alone, with empty eyes, looking at the crowd.

When Wang Chengzi heard that he could enter the city, he wanted to go in and take a look.

Just to see if I can find out any information.

I said goodbye to Old Lady Wang and was about to leave when Xiaomi hugged my legs.

Xiaomi looked at Wang Chengzi with a smile and said flatteringly, "Dad, take me with you."

Wang Chengzi was about to refuse, but seeing Xiaomi's coquettish look, he couldn't refuse at all.

Old Lady Wang also helped out and said, "Just take her with you. The sweet girl has been feeling depressed these days."

Take her to buy some food to replenish her energy."

As he said this, he took out another tael of silver and handed it to Wang Chengzi.

When Wang Chengzi saw the silver being handed to him, the corners of his mouth twitched.

You know, when he said he wanted to go into the city, Old Lady Wang only gave him twenty cents and she was very distressed.

Now, he actually gave him one tael of silver without even blinking an eye.

Wang Chengzi resigned himself to his fate and picked up Xiaomi, walking towards the city gate.

The county magistrate of Fengcheng did not raise the entrance fee. It was still one penny.

Wang Chengzi paid a penny and entered the city with Xiaomi.

When they entered the city, they found that Fengcheng was much more lively than Wucheng, with vendors doing business everywhere.

Xiaomi looked at the buns in the steamer and drooled with greed.

Wang Chengzi bought Xiaomi a meat bun and asked Xiaomi to hold it and chew it.

The price of meat buns is quite reasonable, two cents each, and they are quite big.

The skin is thin and the filling is big. You can even taste the broth when you take a bite.

Xiaomi ate half of it and couldn't eat any more. Wang Chengzi swallowed the rest in two bites.

After eating, he took Xiaomi to look around. The more he looked, the more he felt that the magistrate of Fengcheng was indeed a good official.

It is definitely better to settle here than in Meng County.

After walking for a while, I saw some people gossiping in a teahouse.

Wang Chengzi walked in, spent two cents to order a pot of tea, and sat there listening to what others were saying.

A man was cracking melon seeds and talking loudly.

The shells of melon seeds flew around his mouth. "Speaking of our county magistrate, he is such a good man. Look at where else can we take in disaster victims? Isn't it only our Fengcheng?"

The person next to him nodded.

Someone whispered, "I heard that the county magistrate of Wudu is not a human being. He charges people one tael of silver as an entrance fee. Isn't this robbery?"

The melon seed man continued, "That's right. Our County Magistrate Li is really kind-hearted. Look, he's even distributing porridge at the city gate."
