Outsiders of Mianjia Dyeing Workshop

Buqi held the chopsticks in amazement and looked at the plate of red fish: "This?"

"This is braised carp, try it." Mian Li sandwiched the tenderest piece of fish meat from the belly, covered it with braised sauce, and handed it to Buqi's mouth. Buqi frowned, opened her mouth to take it, and The delicious, salty and sweet taste filled the mouth, making Buqi very surprised.

"Is it a bit salty? Eat a few mouthfuls of rice, this is the best meal!" Mianli said thoughtfully.

Seeing Buqi's delicious food, Mianli laughed, and hurriedly cleaned up Buqi's fishbone!When the food was ready, Mrs. Liu also came over from the guest courtyard to accompany Buqi to eat.The sun was shining warmly in the inner courtyard, and the family had lunch happily.

After Buqi took a walk, she fell asleep sleepily, and Mianli was at the desk, reading, writing and drawing, and helping with the small account.

Xiao Yu gently pushed open the door, then walked to Mianli with small steps, leaned down and said softly: "Master Liu, the patrol team said that there is something at the entrance of the village ahead, and Master Liu needs to decide."

After listening to Xiao Yu's words, Mianli frowned and put down the pen in his hand: "Okay, then let's go out and talk."

Mianli went to the bed and tucked the sheets for Buqi, then got up and took Xiaoyu out.When he came to the gazebo in the inner courtyard, Mianli stood with his hands behind his back: "Commander Jin, what happened at the entrance of the village?"

Commander Jin is the leader of a team of soldiers sent by the imperial court, and is mainly responsible for the security of the Marquis of Suilin.

Commander Jin clasped his fists together: "Master Hou, someone saw the refugees two miles outside the village, and I came here to report. I don't know how Master Hou will deal with it?"

"Refugees?" Mianli was a little puzzled.

"Didn't the imperial court release the Announcement on Anmin long ago? Besides, the local epidemic should have been brought under control, so why are there still refugees?" Mianli frowned.Originally thought that the hidden danger of the torrent outbreak should have been controlled, but refugees can appear here, obviously Mianli is optimistic about the disaster relief situation.

"Do you know how many refugees there are?" Mianli asked, pointing her finger.

"It's not very clear at the moment, I just know that it spread to this side because the county and town can't get in! After all, there are too many counties affected by the disaster, and there are thousands of refugees as few as tens of thousands more, but this trend It is not clear how many refugees there are! Do you need to send someone to check?" Commander Jin asked.

"No, it's only two miles, it's not enough to go back and forth! So, Xiaoyu, go and call Xiaoying." After thinking about it, Mianli asked Xiaoyu to send a maid to call Xiaoying.

"Xiaoying, it is said that there are refugees coming from outside the village. You set up the previous medicine stall, and then add two pots of hot porridge." Mianli saw Xiaoying coming and hurriedly ordered.

The happy butler life in the past few days made Xiaoying look very good!As soon as she heard that there were refugees, Mianli would give porridge as alms, Xiaoying said to Mianli anxiously: "Master Liu, I'm afraid this is not good for us! Do you want to ask Mrs. Liu?"

Mianli frowned: "What?"

Xiaoying said: "If there are too many refugees, we will not have enough food, and it is the government's business to resettle the refugees. If there are too many resettlements, it seems to be bad. The slaves are not very clear about what is wrong. If refugees came, they would all be beaten out."

Mianli groaned after hearing this: "If there are too many refugees, conflicts will be detrimental to our village! Now the matter is urgent and the priority is to appease. Xiaoying, you can do as I said first, Commander Jin, you have What method can you teach me!"

Commander Jin clasped his fists and said: "In fact, I have rich experience in resettling refugees. It may be just to provide food and land, so as not to cause riots. The arrangement is very good. I think we should see how many refugees there are. It must be reported to the government, so as not to be charged with the crime of mob gang rape."

Mianli hissed after hearing Commander Jin's words. Oh, this is not an interstellar time, and the population is also small at this time. If a large group of people suddenly gathers, the government will also tremble, and they dare not mass-produce Let's gather the cause of the victims!

Qiu'er is six years old this year. A family of seven originally lived in Hexi Road, a land of grain production, which is the main corn production area every year.Because they are close to the long river that runs from north to south, the continuous heavy rain flooded the river, and the flood ruthlessly swallowed up their hometown.Fortunately, Qiu'er's house is on a big slope, and when the torrent came, she always ate in the house, which saved the lives of the family of seven.Although his life was saved, he was short of food and clothing, and then the younger brother became seriously ill with a fever. Within three days, the younger brother left this world with convulsions, and then he and his sister also started to have a fever.He thought that he and his elder sister would leave his parents like his younger brother, but he didn't expect that the official medicinal soup would come and rescued his elder sister and himself who had stepped into the gate of hell. He still remembered when he was sober, Ah Both father and mother cried with excitement.

It's a pity that the good times don't last long. In this flood, there is no more food. There are no living things on the mountain that can be caught and mice on the ground that can be eaten. Even the bark of the tree has been peeled off. After getting a guide, I can go to my distant relatives, but I heard my grandpa said that my ancestors are all in Hexi Road, so there are no distant relatives to find, so I have to go to Anding County with a neighbor who has a sister who married into Anding County to find food and clothing.

"Mother, I'm hungry..." Qiu'er covered her stomach and called her mother on Father's back.

Qiu'er's mother licked her dry and peeling lips, and said, "Wait for Qiu'er, when you reach the village ahead, mother will be able to find something to eat for you."

Qiu'er's older sister, Hua'er, was held tightly by Qiu'er's mother, not daring to let go!The family, who hadn't eaten for three days, just followed the team mechanically.

Qiu'er's father staggered and fell to the ground with a plop. The whole family hurriedly gathered around in fright: "Adi, are you okay!"

Qiu'er's grandpa and grandma lay on the ground, calling for Adi who was lying on the ground. Qiu'er was stunned by the fall, but when she saw her father lying on the ground, she panicked and cried, because Along the way, many people fell down and never got up again.

Qiu'er tugged at his father's hand: "Father, wake up, Qiu'er will go by himself, Father, wake up."

There was the sound of horseshoes in the distance, and five or six soldiers came on horseback. The leader of the horse looked at Adi who was lying in front of the team, picked up a water bag from the horse, and threw it near Adi's family.

"This is sugar water, drink a few sips for everyone who faints!" The soldier on the horse said coldly.

Then the leader of the soldiers stopped their mounts and pointed at the refugees on the ground with a whip in their hands: "Listen up, my family, Suilin Houren, has prepared medicinal soup and porridge for everyone at the entrance of the village ahead. You wait in line and follow someone to go."

Qiu'er's mother took the water bag and filled Adi with water: "Father, wake up, there is a good man who rewarded us to live, and a noble man gave us a way to live."

After a few coughs, Adi woke up, licked the sweetness in his mouth, and unconsciously drank a few mouthfuls along the mouth of the water bag, because he was anxious and choked his throat again, cough cough, when the water bag was handed over again, He hastily declined: "No, it's for father, mother and children." Adi waved.

The other victims on the ground knelt down to thank the soldiers, and began to stand up and line up listening to the soldiers' words.Because Qiu'er's family was in the front, they naturally became the team leaders.At this time, the rest of the people who fainted were also given water bags by the soldiers, and they gradually came to life. There were two or three ox carts behind the soldiers, and they were all placed in the people who did not wake up.

The team slowly tidied up, and the leader of the army was looking at everyone on the horse, looking at Adi who barely stood up, the army pointed with the whip in his hand: "You, get in the car!"

Hearing Jun Ye's words, Adi shivered: "Jun Ye, I can walk!"

Looking at the corpse-like people on the bullock cart, Adi was afraid that he would be thrown into a nearby mass grave like garbage. There were many such things along the way.

Qiu'er's family also gathered around Adi, pulling the corners of their clothes. The military master looked at their family and pulled the corners of his mouth: "Okay, if you fall down, get me into the bullock cart."

Adi responded quickly.

Other families who fainted followed the front of the team crying. The victims understood each other and were a little bit embarrassed. They probably had to be thrown away. Under natural disasters, people were like grass, and the team became dull for a while.

After all the people are settled and the team is sure that the team can move, the leader of the military master whipped his horsewhip and blew a whistle: "Fuck you, follow me closely, if you fall behind, you will not be able to use your horsewhip!" Recognize people!"

Then when the five military masters turned around, the team started to move.

They were all so tired that they had to walk for half an hour to finish this mile.

The leading military master stopped at the entrance of the village, and he shouted loudly: "Let me take care of everything, first drink the medicine, then drink the porridge, and see if the toilet next to it is there, if you have diarrhea, go there to solve it, whoever If you don't obey the rules, grandpa will chop him alive. Do you hear me clearly?"

The victims stared at the cauldrons, their eyes were straightened, and they hurriedly responded to the military master's question.

The military master jumped off his horse and said to Xiaoying, the leader: "Butler Ying, luckily, there are about [-] victims here."

Xiaoying gasped after hearing this: "Then Commander Jin, the bamboo tubes prepared before are still not enough!"

Commander Jin rolled his eyes: "Let's drink it around here. After drinking, let's send the bamboo tube back. I see that they also have bowls, and some of them can be taken by themselves!"

Xiaoying nodded when she heard it: "That's fine, then I'll trouble Commander Jin."

Commander Jin smiled, and ran to the victims to notify them. All the victims hurriedly took out the bowls and chopsticks from their broken packages, and looked at them with their necks stretched out.
