The leisurely home life always goes by extraordinarily fast.

Within a few days, the Fan family, who are full-time copper ware manufacturers, completed the essential oil extraction equipment Shao Qingyi needed.

Now is not the season for flowering, so Shao Qingyi simply used orange peels as test products.

Every household in Shuiwan Village has planted some fruit trees, and oranges, the most common fruit tree, are naturally planted.

Although the He family didn't grow them, there were quite a few oranges sent by the villagers they knew.

Shao Qingyi saved a lot of orange peels, which were originally intended to be dried to make tangerine peels, but now they are used to extract essential oils.In addition to the saved ones, Shao Qingyi also peeled some orange peels, thinking that it could be refined more at once.

Added water, stuffed the orange peel, then lit the fire and burned the firewood.

This series of procedures made Shao Qingyi feel like she was cooking some strange dishes.

It was the first time for the two children to see such a strange appliance, and they were both curious and amused.

"Father Mu, how long does it take to burn this?" The two children asked curiously.

Shao Qingyi was actually not too clear about it: "Well, it probably has to keep burning..."

This essential oil should be available soon, right?

When should the water used for condensation be poured in?

Otherwise, start pouring now?

Thinking of this, Shao Qingyi simply scooped water with a spoon, poured the water into it, the water flowed down the pipe, and then fell back into the bucket. Shao Qingyi did this with a manual irrigation machine, repeating this action, looking forward to the first batch The manufacture of essential oils was successful.

The children saw that the job was fun, and they also scrambled for water.

Shao Qingyi generously handed over this work to the two children, while she was happy and relaxed.

But if you have nothing to do at all, it's a bit boring.

Otherwise, why not make some oranges in syrup?I haven't eaten the oranges I peeled just now!

Shao Qingyi did it when she thought of it, turned around and went back to the kitchen.

Seeing Shao Qingyi competing with Juban'er, He Changji was puzzled and asked what he was doing.

Shao Qingyi explained that it was for making oranges in syrup.

After listening to Shao Qingyi's explanation, He Changji peeled off the orange petals with him.

Just as the family was enjoying a beautiful afternoon, they suddenly heard someone shouting outside the door: "Uncle He, are you at home? There are important matters to be discussed in the village, you should go to the ancestral hall!"

The two looked out the window, and saw a child they didn't know well.

"Big event? What's the matter?" The two children in the yard asked suspiciously.

"I don't know either." The child scratched his head, "Anyway, something serious happened, and my father asked me to go door-to-door to notify everyone to go to the ancestral hall."

"I see, I'll go right away." He Changji said with a frown.

"Then I'll go ahead and notify the others!" With that said, the child left in a hurry.

"This...what could have happened?" Shao Qingyi suddenly became nervous.

He Changji shook his head and said, "That's the youngest son of the Wu family. This year, it's their family's turn to act as Lizheng temporarily. The major event they notified must be something that will endanger the entire village."

Shao Qingyi became even more nervous when she heard the words: "Could it be... the Lin family..."

"Anyway, let's go and have a look first." He Changji wiped his hands and said.

"I'll go with you." Shao Qingyi also said quickly.

"Then we're going too." Hearing this, the two children also stopped their work.

Shao Qingyi returned the firewood, and the family of four went to the ancestral hall together.

When we arrived at the ancestral hall, many villagers had already arrived.

"What's going on here?" A villager said a little uneasy, "Even if our village was in a war, there was no villager meeting held so urgently, was it?"

"Look, is that man Hu Da's son? Why did he come to the village? His face is still ashamed. Could it be that he is being chased again?" Another villager pointed to a young man sitting in front of him.

"It seems that he is really the son of the Hu family. Could it be that this kid is making trouble again?" The villager from before became furious, "Don't say that this kid has committed something, it will bring disaster to the whole village. ?”

"Hey, let's listen to what the Wu family said first." The other villagers heard their conversation and interrupted their speculation, "Looking at the expressions of the Hu family couple, it doesn't look like their son has committed a crime again."

"Yes, let's listen to what the Wu family has to say. If something serious hadn't happened, the Wu family wouldn't have summoned everyone so urgently." The villagers who spoke before agreed.

Shao Qingyi was a little flustered, and he felt a little uneasy.He held He Changji's hand tightly, and He Changji held him back with the other hand, and patted him to reassure him.

Soon, everyone arrived, and the head of the Wu family was a tall man named Wu Shan, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, very imposing.

Standing right in front of the ancestral hall, he shouted loudly: "Everyone, be quiet, be quiet! We called you here today because something happened that endangered the safety of all the villagers in our entire village!"

As soon as Wu Shan said this, all the villagers couldn't help whispering.

"Quiet! Everyone, please be quiet!" Wu Shan shouted loudly, while gesturing for everyone to be quiet.

Soon, everyone was quiet again.

"The news was brought by Hu Weishan from the Hu family. Let him tell everyone about the situation." Wu Shan called the Hu family over as he said.

"Yesterday, last night, Fucheng was bombed!" Hu Weishan was obviously still in shock at the moment, "There were rumbling explosions in several places in Fucheng, which was very scary! The flames illuminated the entire Fucheng! Someone was killing people and robbing things in the city! When I saw that the situation was not good, I ran out of the city overnight and ran to Shuiwan Village. I don’t know what’s going on in Fucheng now... On the way out of the city, I saw a lot of dead people , They are dripping with blood, it's terrible!"

"Was the murderer a Hu or a Liang?" Wu Shan asked.

"I, I don't know..." Hu Weishan shook his head, "I was so busy running for my life that I didn't have time to see what kind of people were killing people. At that time, Fucheng was in great chaos, and there were crying and shouting everywhere. I just wanted to go back to the village, the village is the safest, so I didn't have time to take care of other things."

After he finished speaking, the entire ancestral hall was completely quiet, as quiet as if the air had condensed.

Shao Qingyi's face turned completely pale.

The whole city of Fu was bombed?Someone else committed murder in Fucheng?

There is absolutely no such plot in the book "Chong Xi Liang Yuan"!

In the end what happened?That's why the plot has changed so much!

Could it be that it was because he changed the fate of himself and his family that the plot changed so much?

So many lives, if it was really because of him...

Thinking of this possibility, Shao Qingyi trembled all over. He held He Changji's hand tightly, trying to get some warmth from him.

He Changji's mood was also not calm.

Was the bombing of Fucheng related to the Hu people?

If so, then things are grim.

First of all, the source of the explosives is frightening.

Hu people five years ago did not have explosives. □□, only the Fu family in Liang Guoping Ningcheng knows, if the attack on Fucheng is really the work of the barbarians...

Whether it was the Hu people who stole the drug, or the Hu people reached a cooperative relationship with the Pingning Fu family.

This is a catastrophe for the people of the entire Liang Kingdom.

No one knows better than him the cruelty of the Hu people.

They burned, killed, looted, and did all kinds of evil. Wherever they went, there was no one alive.

But if it was really done by Hu people, how did Hu Weishan escape?

With the cruelty of the Hu people, it is impossible to let a worthless person like Hu Weishan leave.

If it wasn't done by the barbarians, then what happened to Fucheng this time?

He Changji frowned tightly.

He began to wonder if there were people who, like him and Shao Qingyi, had a mysterious encounter, which led to all this happening now.

It's a pity that in order to prevent the emperor from discovering his traces, he has not had any contact with his former brothers in the past few years. As a result, he now knows very little about the outside situation.

Although under his instruction during this time, the brothers below have already started to act.

But the five-year window period is not so easy to fill after all.

Even Fucheng, logically speaking, is under their noses, and the news should be the most well-informed.

But something like an explosion happened.

He Changji frowned, thinking about how to deal with it next.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Wu Shan continued: "That's how things are. We still can't judge who did what happened in Fucheng this time, and why they did this."

After a pause, he continued: "But Fucheng is too close to our Shuiwan Village. Although the villagers of our Shuiwan Village have lived in seclusion for many years, they are not completely cut off from the outside world. If this incident is similar to that of a few years ago The Hu people invaded, and with their robber-like habits, it is absolutely impossible to let a village like ours go. So today I called everyone here, just to let everyone vote to decide whether to close the village again."

The terrain of Shuiwan Village is easy to defend and difficult to attack, so once the situation is turbulent and war breaks out, Shuiwan Village will choose to close the village to avoid the war.

Once the village is closed, the route leading to Shuiwan Village will be blocked with obstacles, so that people outside can't get in, and people inside can't get out.Although this method can guarantee the safety of the villagers, it will also make Shuiwan Village lose its understanding of the outside world.

So in order to understand the situation outside, Shuiwan Village would send a villager out every once in a while to inquire about the situation.If the war outside is over, the village can be unblocked. If it is not over or the villagers sent out have not returned, the village will be blocked indefinitely.

Six years ago, Liang Guo defeated the Hu people, and Shuiwan Village, which had been closed for three years, was finally lifted.

It has only been less than a few years since the lockdown was lifted. If the village is to be closed again, it will definitely have some impact on the daily life of the villagers.

On top of that, they don't know what happened right now.

The Hu people invaded Liang Guo for three years, but they did not actually invade Fucheng.

The Hu people's lair is in the northwest of Liang State. Although they are powerful in combat, their number is only one-tenth of that of Liang State.

Therefore, their invasion strategy has always been to burn, kill, and loot, to kill all people and loot all supplies, and they will not and cannot occupy territory.

After Liang Guo organized the army to counterattack, the Hu people's invasion area has been in the northern part of Liang State, and has never reached the southern part of Liang State, let alone Fucheng.

So, is this a long-planned foreign invasion, or a change of power within Fucheng?

The people of Shuiwan Village knew nothing about this.

The incident happened so suddenly, Wu Shan could only urgently call the heads of various households to vote to decide the future plan.

Closing the village is a big deal. After hearing what Wu Shan said, everyone started talking again.

Finally someone said loudly: "Fucheng is so close to us, we have to close the village quickly, before it's too late."

Some people also objected: "It is precisely because Fucheng is close to us that we need to send people to understand the situation. Closing the village rashly is not the best policy."

There were opponents and supporters on both sides, and everyone in the ancestral hall was at a stalemate for a while.

"So, there are two views now, one is to close the village immediately, and the other is to send people to investigate the situation first, and then close the village after understanding the situation." Wu Shan broke the noisy situation, and he said loudly, "Then, the next step is to close the village." Let’s start voting, I have prepared red paper and white paper here, the red paper agrees to close the village, the white paper agrees to send people to investigate the situation, if you don’t vote for anything, you will abstain.”

As he said that, he took out the pieces of paper that he had prepared a long time ago: "After everyone has made their selections, put them into the box, and we will count the votes on the spot. Whichever side has the most votes, we will act according to the opinion of whichever side!"

This is also a consistent tradition in Shuiwan Village.

Everyone knows this set of rules, but which option to choose, everyone has their own ideas in their hearts.

When it was He Changji's turn, He Changji looked at the two-color paper in front of him and hesitated.

He subconsciously looked at Shao Qingyi.

I saw that although his face was pale, his eyes were full of trust in him.

He looked again at his two children.

Cheng Ping and Cheng An are still young, and they don't know what the adults are arguing about.

"From the He family, hurry up and choose." Wu Shan, who was holding the ballot box, urged.

From the standpoint of a general, he should choose blank paper.Only after inquiring about the facts can we know how to deal with the next step.

But, now he is no longer He Tianlei of the world, but only He Changji of the He family of Shuiwan Village.

As a husband and a father, on behalf of their family, He Changji picked up a red piece of paper and threw it into the ballot box.
