In the year of disaster in the book, the villain girl is the real winner

Yang Yi hid the silver hairpin in his sleeve and returned it to He Qiudi only after he walked in front of her.

He Qiudi took the blood-stained silver hairpin with disdain.

If she only had three such silver hairpins, she wouldn't want this one.

Ancient technology could not produce such an exquisitely crafted silver hairpin.

He Qiudi and He Huaibi found He Sanlang who was hiding.

He hid so obediently that he actually found a tree hole to hide in, and he didn't hear what was happening outside.

He didn't come out of the tree hole until He Qiudi came to find him.

He Sanlang was shocked when he saw He Qiudi and He Huaibi covered in blood. He was shocked again when he saw Yang Yi.

He Qiudi reached out and touched his head: "Sanlang, this is Lord Yan's subordinate, his name is Yang Yi. Don't be afraid, what we just encountered was not a wild boar, but a bandit. Your sixth uncle and I subdued the bandit, so we didn't call you out."

No matter how brave He Sanlang is, he is just a nine-year-old child.

Looking at the blood on his uncle and aunt, and then looking at the serious, solemn and dignified Yang Yi, he was much less lively than before.

On the way back.

He Sanlang didn't ask any more questions.

After all, he was afraid of bandits, killing, and seeing blood.

The last time his aunt rescued Yan Shi and his other subordinate in the mountains, when Grandfather and Second Uncle carried them down the mountain, he pushed through the crowd to take a look and almost peed his pants out of fright.

This time, he was not interested in looking at the bandit's corpse.

They originally didn't intend to hunt, but they met two wild goats traveling together. With the help of Yang Yi, they successfully hunted the two goats.

He Qiudi: “…”

Maybe it was attracted by the water she put in the mountains.

Yang helped them carry the goat to the old well at the entrance of Shiliu Village without changing his expression, and was about to return to the mountain.

He Qiudi called him: "Yang Yi, if possible, you, your parents, and your brothers, come to Shiliu Village to eat roasted whole lamb. The roasted whole lamb made by my mother tastes delicious."

Yang Yi hummed and left without looking back.

As soon as the strange man left, the villagers who were gathered at the entrance of the village gathered around and asked what was going on.

He Qiudi told the truth.

They went into the mountains to hunt, and on the outskirts of the deep forests, they encountered bandits who had escaped from the bandit den in Phoenix Mountain.

By accident, they shot and wounded a bandit first, and then because the bandit looked down on them, they defeated and subdued the three bandits one by one.

after that.

The people who were at the banquet arrived in time with the hunting dogs that were searching the mountains.

Yang Yi sent them down the mountain. On the way down the mountain, they met two wild goats grazing together. With the help of Yang Yi, they successfully hunted the two wild goats.

He also invited Yang Yihe and his friends to visit Shiliu Village during the banquet.

He Qiudi did not say that the bandits were killed by them.

Afraid that the villagers will be scared.

When the villagers learned about the bandit suppression campaign in Phoenix Mountain, they all became a little worried.

Phoenix Mountain is located in the mountains more than 20 miles away from Shiliu Village.

The nearest village after coming down from Fenghuang is Shiliu Village.

Fortunately.

This group of bandits has not yet come to Shiliu Village to cause trouble.

However, the bandits in Phoenix Mountain may not be so easy to wipe out.

Fifteen years ago, there were waves of bandits in Phoenix Mountain. They were all people who had suffered from the war and had become bandits.

After the war, they became mountain people, no longer went down the mountain to rob, and lived in peace with the surrounding villages. The government then turned a blind eye and did not suppress the bandits.

Now is a disaster year.

This wave of bandits has been wiped out, but who knows if there will be more refugees who can’t survive the disaster and run to Phoenix Mountain and rule the mountain.

In the crowd, Old Lady Li, who had just returned from the town after selling her belongings and buying supplies, heard about this and couldn't help but feel relieved.

There really are bandits lairing in Phoenix Mountain.

Banditry and war will sooner or later destroy Pomegranate Village.

Fortunately, the Li family’s land has been sold to the He family.

Although it is a bit cheap.

I’m afraid that if Old Lady He takes advantage of her, she won’t be able to survive this winter.

He Huaiping and He Huaian rushed back from the fields and carried the two goats back to the He family.

Old Mrs. He was horrified when she saw He Qiudi and He Huaibi returning home covered in blood.

After He Qiudi finished speaking, Old Lady He felt relieved knowing that this encounter with the bandits was another safe one.

He quickly asked He Huaiping to boil water and give He Qiudi and He Huaibi a bath.

There was blood all over his body, it was scary.

I heard that He Qiudi was going to host a banquet.

Regardless of whether he had time to come to Shiliu Village for the roasted whole lamb feast, Grandma He started to make arrangements.

In addition to a whole roasted sheep, the lamb chops and hind legs of another sheep are also cut out and roasted.

For the rest of the mutton, I plan to make stewed mutton and braised mutton.

We also need to make some other dishes to entertain him and his subordinates at the banquet.

Fortunately, it is still early, and if there are not enough vegetables at home, we can go to the city to buy some.

Old Mrs. He gave He Huaiping a few taels of silver and asked him to go to the city to buy meat and some good wine.

In short.

We must not lose manners at this dinner tonight.

He Qiudi took a bath and came out of the second room, and saw He Sanlang running back from outside: "Grandma, grandma, something bad has happened. Li Goudan's grandma doesn't allow my father and my fifth and sixth uncles to carry water from the old well. She said that the old well produces little water, and each household in the village has a fixed share."

"My father and his family have carried more water than they should have carried twice. Once our family has carried all the water, their family will have nothing left. She threatened that if our family carries more water, she would ask her son to muddy the water so that no one would have water to drink."

He Qiudi: “…”

Old Mrs. Li is a troublemaker.

The He family is in a special situation today.

Because He Huaizhang was a teacher in the city, Old Man He had a certain prestige in the village. The other villagers knew that the He family had hunted two sheep and had to process them and prepare a banquet, so they would never get angry with the He family for a little well water.

It was the Li family. Old Mrs. Li was going to move away with her family, and she disliked Old Mrs. He, so naturally she tried to find ways to make things difficult for the He family.

Speaking of the grudge between Mrs. Li and Mrs. He, there is a little gossip involved.

It is said.

Old Mrs. Li has reached the age of getting married, and she likes Mr. He.

Her family members on her mother's side, through various connections, came to hint to Mr. He.

At that time, my great-grandmother was interested.

As a result, when Mr. He was escorting a bodyguard outside, he met Mrs. He by chance and fell in love with her at first sight.

So I brought the person home.

Old Mrs. Li was so angry that she married to Shiliu Village.

Old Mrs. Li was unwilling to lose not only her husband but also her son.

It's like comparing her birth rate with Old Lady He's, but her son is not as good as hers.

As a result, the son born to Old Lady Li was not as promising as the brothers of the He family. He was not good at studying, working, and even worse at hunting.

Over thirty years.

The Li family's life is nothing like the He family's.

Old Mrs. Li felt even worse.

Other families in Shiliu Village gave the He family some face, but Old Lady Li was unwilling to do so at all.

Especially when she thought about how she had no choice but to sell her family's land to her mortal enemy for the low price of twelve taels of silver, she did not feel depressed.

He Qiudi hated these gossipy women who loved to make trouble, so he decided to go to the old well and release some water to provoke Old Lady Li.

It made her regret selling her land at a low price.
