Qinghe Pastoral

In the past few days, the two have been closely monitoring the trend of the epidemic. Seeing that four or five days have passed, there is no outbreak of the epidemic in Yong'an Continent.And according to Wei Qian's latest information, although Huazhou is still in a closed state, the cause of the epidemic has been found out, and the prescriptions for treating the epidemic are also quite effective. Take a breath.

After all, Jing'an County is far away from Huazhou. In order to stabilize people's hearts, they will not publicize the matter. Therefore, the people in Jing'an County don't know what kind of hardships Huazhou and other coastal areas are suffering. They only think that the Dayu Dynasty is still peaceful. Prosperous prosperity.

In mid-September, the work in Qinghe Village gradually became quieter. This year's Qinghe Village is still a good harvest year. Every household has enough surplus food, and there are satisfied smiles on their faces.

September [-]th was the full moon ceremony of Xu Xiuqin's cousin's son. The whole family planned to go together, but Lin Chen's stomach was spoiled, so Lin Mu stayed with Lin Chen and let the couple go.

Lin Chen's face was pale because of pulling it several times, and he let Lin Mu hug him, and he was not as lively and agile as usual, so he was very pitiful.

Fortunately, after taking two doses of medicine, he finally stopped pulling at noon, but it was obvious that his small body was tossed to pieces, and even the important little beasts that he liked on weekdays could not arouse his interest.

"Come on, the porridge is ready."

Ji Ruixiu came over with some food. Lin Chen hadn't eaten anything from last night to noon, so Ji Ruixiu ordered the cook to prepare light rice porridge, eat some at least, and drink a bowl of medicine for Lin Mu to hug. It should be better to sleep.

"Chen'er, open your mouth."

Lin Mu coaxed Lin Chen to drink half a bowl while blowing on the cool air, it was too much, but no matter how Lin Mu coaxed Lin Chen, he refused to eat it.

But at this time, the clerks from the food shop in the county were hurriedly led by the servants to find them, and saw that the teenage boy was covered with sweat, and he must have rushed here.

"Boss, something happened in the store. A group of people came from nowhere just now. When they entered the store, they threw a mess and injured the young master of the Liu family in the east of the store. The shopkeeper asked me to come and find you." .”

The guy looked anxious, but his words were not vague, which was also due to his proper training on weekdays.

Lin Mu thought strangely, who is the manager of Donglai Restaurant, everyone in the county knows it, who would come to the restaurant so inexplicably to make trouble?Besides, the young master of the Liu family is the old son of Master Liu. The Liu family is one of the best families in Jing'an County. Who is so bold?How dare you offend Ji Ruixiu and the Liu family?

"Do you know the identity of the person who came?"

"I don't know. They're all rough men with good fists and kicks. They all ran away after a mess. The shopkeeper has already reported to the official. You should go quickly."

Seeing that guy's eyes were red with anxiety, Lin Mu glanced at Ji Ruixiu who was frowning tightly, and hurriedly asked Ji Ruixiu to go to the county.

"This matter is very serious, and it has involved the young master of the Liu family. I'm afraid Brother Ping won't be able to solve it at all. You should go and see the situation."

"Okay, you can hold Chen'er and go to sleep for a while, I'll come back after I finish."

Ji Ruixiu also felt that this matter was quite strange, and he didn't know who was planning all this behind the scenes. This matter really needed him to come forward to resolve it.

"There's no one at home. I'll take Chen'er home. You should go and worry about yourself."

Ji Ruixiu quickly ordered his servants to drive the carriage, and hurried to Jing'an County with his servants.

Lin Mu withdrew his worried gaze, saw Lin Chen drowsy, and ordered the cook to put away the dishes, while he carried Lin Chen home.

During the few days they got married, they mostly lived in the season's residence, but the Lin family also arranged a very good wedding room, so they could live wherever they wanted.

These days, except for those with a lot of fields, almost every family has finished their autumn harvest, but along the way, even those who still have crops in the fields are deserted, which seems a bit weird.

While Lin Mu was wondering, he heard the voices of a man and a woman not far away. It sounded like they were arguing.

"Admonition, reminder, what is the reminder? Can the crops run away after a while?"

The woman's voice was sharp and mixed with anger. Lin Mu could feel the woman's anger even before seeing anyone.

"Why do you always watch the excitement of other people's houses? Can it be eaten as food or exchanged for money? The work in the field is endless, and you still watch the excitement, what is the excitement?"

The man didn't hold back because of the woman's anger, his voice was thick and majestic, and his tone was extremely aggressive.

"Why can't you watch it? Isn't everyone else watching? You still yelling at me? What are you yelling at? Tell me to marry you and live a leisurely life? After all, are you useless?"

"I'm useless? Tao Town is useful, so what? You still have to come back to be a villager. You envy Wang Xiyun. Do you want to be dismissed and go home?"

The voice became louder and louder, and soon the figures of the two appeared in Lin Mu's sight. They were Wang Dazhuang and his wife at the west entrance of the village.His family has a large population and a lot of fields. It seems that the crops have not been harvested yet.

Lin Mu thought that he was unlucky, and unexpectedly ran into the couple quarreling, and Wang Dazhuang and his wife, when they saw Lin Mu coming forward with Lin Chen in their arms, they also shut up resentfully, and a blush flashed across Wang Dazhuang's face.

"Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang are going to harvest the crops?"

Lin Mu greeted the two with the same expressions, but Aunt Wang was a big hearted person, she was not at all embarrassed to be seen by Lin Mu because of their quarrel, she talked to Lin Mu with a smile on her face.

"Why is Brother Mu hugging Brother Chen by himself? Why isn't Young Master Ji here?"

It's no wonder Aunt Wang asked this question, when did they ever see Lin Mu hugging Lin Chen by herself?Lin Chen is already one and a half years old, he is well-raised at home, he is chubby, and he is not light.

"He went to the county."

"That's it, brother Chen has fallen asleep, this child is important, his father, please help him take him back."

Aunt Wang didn't mean to please Lin Mu when she said this, but she was warm-hearted. Lin Mu looked thin and weak, and if she hugged such a heavy child, Aunt Wang was afraid that he would fall.

Wang Dazhuang didn't know what to do when he was told by his mother-in-law, but he hesitated to hear Lin Mu say: "Thank you, aunt, but I can do it by myself. Seeing that there are still confiscated crops in aunt's field, go quickly, so I can collect them early and exchange them for money." , have a good year."

Lin Mu's few words are pleasing, who wouldn't be happy in a good harvest year?He also felt that what he said made sense, so he said goodbye to Lin Mu.

After walking two steps, Aunt Wang turned her head again, glanced at the sleeping Lin Chen, and said, "Brother Chen has fallen asleep, Brother Mu, don't take the road at the west entrance, the Tao family is making a fuss." Jump, don't scare Brother Chen."

After finishing speaking, Aunt Wang saw Lin Mu's incomprehensible look, and took two steps forward. Seeing his mother-in-law's gossip, Wang Dazhuang rolled his eyes, but he couldn't get angry, he just felt uncomfortable in his heart .

"Didn't Taozhen divorce Wang Xiyun? Today, Wang Xiyun brought a dozen or so men from her natal family and had a quarrel at Tao's house. The quarrel was overwhelming, and she even got into a fight with Widow Wang. That scene, tsk tsk, house The inside and outside of the room are full of people, Brother Mu, let's take a detour, don't disturb Brother Chen, the child can't bear to be scared."

"Really? Thank you, Auntie, for reminding me."

Aunt Wang said yes, but waved her hands again and again.

"Come on, my hands are sore from holding a child, Brother Mu, let's go quickly, my aunt has to go to work too."

"Okay, auntie, you can go first."

Aunt Wang heard what Lin Mu said, so she and Wang Dazhuang went to her own field, but after walking about ten steps, the sound of the two bickering came again.

Lin Mu smiled slightly, the so-called husband and wife, the so-called life is rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea, there is no way that the husband and wife do not quarrel, but there is no bad relationship.

Lin Mu recalled what Aunt Wang said just now. Although Wang Xiyun had followed Tao Zhen for more than ten years, but he ended up like this in the end. He was not as good as the couples in this village who often quarreled.

Although Lin Mu is pure in nature, he has no sympathy for Tao Dong's death and Wang Xiyun's situation.With Tao Dong's character, Lin Mu had expected that he would end up today, but he never expected that it would affect the Tao family to the present situation.

In order to appease Ji Ruixiu's anger, Tao Zhen actually took Wang Xiyun back to sleep, but seeing Wang Xiyun's domineering appearance, he would not follow Tao Zhen's wish so much.The Tao family was dissatisfied with the villagers because of the previous incidents. If Wang Xiyun often brought people from other villages to make noises, the Tao family might not be able to gain a foothold in Qinghe Village.

Feeling the soreness from his hands, Lin Mu stopped thinking about the Tao family and walked home.

Children grow up fast, and Lin Mu is really tired after walking with Lin Chen in his arms for so long. If Lin Chen hadn't fallen asleep, he should have come back with his back on his back.

Walking to the fork in the road, one can go directly to their house but has to pass through Tao's house, and the other is a bit detoured. Lin Mu remembered what Aunt Wang said just now, so he chose the slightly detoured one.

Just as I was about to go to that path, two strange men came in front of me. I saw that the two men were tall and strong, one had a beard, and the other had a very long scar on the left side of his face. Good people.

Seeing the two of them glanced at him and then walked straight away, Lin Mu didn't stop in doubt.

This road is the original old road in the village. Except for the people who live along this road, there are few people who walk along it on weekdays. After walking for a quarter of an hour, Lin Mu didn't meet anyone.

All of a sudden, Lin Mu seemed to feel that there was someone behind him, and as he turned around, he saw a hand holding a white cloth stretched out. Before he could react, his mouth and nose were tightly covered by the white cloth. Called, but only saw the two terrifying faces just now.

He felt the warm breath in his arms again, and despair invaded his heart. Before he had time to think about it, he felt that what he could see became blurred, and his mind became more and more dizzy. He had a bad heart, but he tried his best He hugged Lin Chen tightly.

When his consciousness drifted away, Ji Ruixiu's face flashed in Lin Mu's mind. When he closed his eyes, a crystal tear ran across his cheek, and then he passed out.

The two men looked at each other, and one of them said, "What about this kid?"

The other thought for a moment and said, "Take them away together."

After saying that, the two quickly took out a sack, put the fainted Lin Mu and the sleeping Lin Chen into it, and carried the sack all the way to a tree by the side of the road, one waited in place while the other hurriedly leave.

Soon, a carriage appeared in sight, and the two loaded the sacks on the carriage, and left Qinghe Village with the carriage.
