Chapter 157 The orb becomes different

Baozhu had woken up long ago, when she took Mingzhu and asked the Wolf King.

Seeing her mother wanting to ask but not daring to ask, she couldn't help but pout, since she didn't ask, she wouldn't say anything.

It depends on how long A Niang can hold it in. If A Niang has a secret that she won’t tell her, then she should also have her own little secret.

There was a strange atmosphere in the house, Mingzhu was immersed in eating porridge, and Jiang Dongsheng was still lying on the bed, fast asleep.

As soon as Baozhu was full, Daniel came to find Baozhu.

Jiang Qiuniang quickly put down her bowls and chopsticks and looked nervously at the big man standing at the door, looking for a treasure to pick up Yang Zhiyong and the others.

Did she hear it correctly? The village chief really agreed to allow those from other villages to come to Jiangjia Village?

Usually, families in every village avoid refugees like this, for fear of encountering white-eyed wolves and bringing disaster to the village.

The village chief is not the kind of person who would let Baozhu do whatever he wants.

He looked at his daughter suspiciously, feeling that his daughter was becoming more and more powerful, and now even the village chief listened to her.

Bao Zhu showed her white teeth and smiled sweetly: "Auntie, is there anything you want to say to me?"

Jiang Qiuniang quickly shook her head, moved her mouth, and finally said uneasily: "Be careful on the road."

Bao Zhu sighed with regret and nodded: "Don't worry."

She has always been the only one to rob others, and no one who can touch her has yet appeared.

Daniel took a deep look at Jiang Qiuniang, she didn't know about such a big thing?

Forget it, since he doesn't know, he won't mention it.

When he heard about this, it took him a long time to accept it.

Baozhu did not get on the carriage, but rode the Wolf King and led the way.

On the small slope outside the ruined temple, the female family members of the Yang family and their children were peeling tree bark and preparing for tonight's dinner.

There was not much food delivered by Baozhu last time. Yang Zhiyong and other senior men discussed whether they could buy more food. When they asked, the price of food had risen again.

This is a rhythm that will drive them to death.

"Brother Zhiyong, there are more and more people in this mountain top. There are not many wild vegetables we can dig, which is not enough to fill our stomachs. Now that the city gate is blocked, we can't enter the city at all."

It would be great if they could enter the city, where they could find a job to work hard and not starve to death.

Yang Dawei gritted his teeth: "If it doesn't work out, I'll sign up to join the army. I heard that I can get twenty kilograms of rice."

Yang Zhiyong was silent: "There are nine of us in total. Even if all of us join the army, we can only receive more than 180 kilograms, which is not enough for us to survive the winter."

The imperial court was slow to appease the refugees and allowed them to be displaced.

I don’t know how long I will last like this.

"It's useless for you to join the army alone. If I go, who will protect them?"

If there weren't so many of them, even if they could still eat chaff and porridge in the past two days, they would be robbed by others.

Along the way, did they see many things like selling sons and daughters and exchanging sons for food?

They were lucky enough, at least they didn't starve to death.

"How about, how about... we look for Miss Jiang again?"

Yang Dawei said softly.

Blushing, he didn't even expect it.

When I am a grown man, I still ask for charity from a six-year-old girl.

Yang Zhiyong shook his head: "We haven't done anything to help her. We are still like blood-sucking insects expecting that a little girl will run out of food."

Judging from Baozhu's clothes, he does not come from a wealthy family. It is estimated that giving them one hundred kilograms of brown rice is already the family's ration.

"What should we do?"

After much deliberation, he still thought it would be better to join the army.

At least without his mouth, twenty kilograms of grain could be exchanged.

Thinking about it this way, he felt it was a much better deal.

He stood up angrily and said, "I'm going alone. I'm alone anyway. I don't want Brother Zhiyong and you guys to take care of your family."

"Don't be impulsive, it's not that time yet."

Yang Zhiyong stretched out his hand to stop him. They were cousins, and he was the only one left in the family, the only child in the family.

If they died on the battlefield, they would be worthy of their uncle who saved their lives.

"If you want to go, I'll go too, and you can take care of the little kid and the others for me."

The wife and two children, who were cutting tree bark in the distance, looked as pale as vegetables.

"Brother Zhiyong, what are you talking about? I'm still young, you..."

Yang Dawei's eyes widened and he was very angry.

When he joins the army, he still has something to eat so that he won't starve to death.

Staying here not only has to take care of my sister-in-law and two babies who are waiting to be fed, but I also have to continue to be hungry. No matter how I think about it, it is not worthwhile.

Yang Zhiyong didn't know his brain circuit, he only knew that the sword had no eyes.

If he dies, the incense of his family will really be cut off.

When the two were arguing, Baozhu had already gone up the mountain.

"Huh? Why are you arguing?"

Bao Zhu blinked his big eyes and looked at the two people who were about to fight. He wrinkled his nose and asked with disgust on his face.

The carriage could not come up and had to stop on the official road at the bottom of the mountain.

As time goes by, I'm afraid that someone will have evil intentions, and then Uncle Big Niu will be in danger.

Seeing the orb that suddenly appeared, the two blushed.

If I told her that they were almost fighting over food, would she be looked down upon?

"You guys hurry up and pack up and follow me back to Jiangjiacun."

Bao Zhu touched the tip of her nose. In fact, she had heard it a long time ago, otherwise she would not have disliked them.

"Uncle Daniel's carriage is at the bottom of the mountain. Hurry up..."

Baozhu urged again, regardless of their daze, pointing at the women who were cutting bark: "You arrange a few men to send the women and children down the mountain first. The remaining few simply pack their luggage."

I took a look inside the ruined temple and saw only a pot and a few clothes.

There's nothing to clean up.

Yang Dawei realized later and poked Yang Zhiyong with the back of his hand: "Brother Zhiyong, did I hear you right? She asked us to go to their village?"

"Why do you talk so much nonsense? A big old man's mother-in-law? Our village chief has already agreed and specially called Uncle Niu to pick you up with a carriage."

Baozhu walked a few steps and turned around, impatient.

He even said fiercely: "Do it quickly. If you do it later, others will see it and have evil intentions. What should I do?"

Uncle Daniel was waiting alone on the official road.

She didn't want to harm Uncle Daniu because of them.

Before they could realize it, Baozhu had already walked down the mountain.

"Brother Zhiyong, did I hear you correctly?" Yang Dawei asked stupidly.

Yang Zhiyong nodded and looked at Baozhu's back, full of gratitude.

Clenching his fists, he secretly made a decision in his heart. As long as Baozhu didn't betray him, he was willing to listen to Baozhu.

"You heard that right, what are you still doing? Hurry up and pack your things, you guys can take the women and children down the mountain." Yang Zhiyong immediately ordered.

I urged Yang Dawei to pack his things, but he was not idle either.

I carefully packed away the wild vegetables and the remaining three kilograms of brown rice dug in the past two days.
