Chapter 44 Is there a way for people to live?

Gradually, everyone in Yugu Village knew that Qi Xuan had taken Li Zhuzi and others into the mountains to hunt.

Especially when they carried wild boars into the village, they were so greedy that no one dared to take the lead. After all, Li Zhuzhu and the others were all very energetic and could not be beaten at first glance.

These people couldn't stand it any longer, so they all came to Zhao Changlin to find a way. Zhao Changlin was so angry that his nose was twisted. What can he do?

Seeing that they refused to leave, he snorted coldly: "Let's think about it. I've been told by the superiors that we will capture young men again by the end of the year at the latest, if not before the end of the year. If you are really afraid of starving to death in the village, go and fight."

Those soldiers don’t go hungry!”

These people shut up instantly. It has been two or three years, and we have been catching two young men a year. How many people are enough to catch them?

Furthermore, none of the people captured came back with any confidence, let alone anyone who came back alive. No one is a fool, and people will die in war!

Leng Daliang gritted his teeth bitterly, feeling really dissatisfied. Who would feel better about starving?

"Village chief, if nothing else, this Fan Lin looks like he's getting tougher. There's nothing left to eat in our village. Why don't we go into the mountains and give it a try?" Sun Laojiu smiled.

He came up to Zhao Changlin and said: "No matter what, you have to survive. It's almost the Chinese New Year, and you can farm after the new year."

Zhao Changlin sneered coldly and looked at Sun Laojiu: "Farming?"

"Well, what if we don't farm?" Sun Laojiu nodded.

Zhao Changlin looked at Sun Laojiu from side to side: "That's a beautiful thought. Do you have grain?"

Sun Laojiu suddenly withered like an eggplant beaten by frost.

Leng Daliang could hardly hold back his anger. Zhao Changlin was so angry that his family wasn't hungry? The fattest person in the village was Zhao Changlin's daughter-in-law, Jin. Jin was famous for her greedy mouth.

A chance to strangle Kim to death!

As soon as this thought came to his mind, Leng Daliang looked into the yard.#@$&

Zhao Changlin had been staring at Leng Daliang out of the corner of his eyes. He saw him looking into the yard and stood up: "If you have time to work here, why not go to the Yamen to ask for food."

Leng Daliang suddenly became energetic and looked at Zhao Changlin: "What's going on? Is the court going to provide disaster relief?"

"I haven't got accurate information, but what is a yamen? It's an official's house, so why can't it have inventory?" Zhao Changlin sighed: "I can't show my face. If more of you go there, if you don't keep everything, you'll have to get the food back."

.”

Leng Daliang thought it made sense and left with the others.

After these people left, Zhao Changlin turned around and went back to the house. Westinghouse's son was still sleeping. He had been out of energy recently, but he had to keep his roots.%&(&

"Chang Lin, I made noodle soup, would you like it?" Jin turned around and asked.

Zhao Changlin waved his hand: "If you don't want to eat it, keep it for your son. You can go out and wander around these days to see what's going on at Mrs. Yang's house?"

"I won't go, that old woman has always looked down upon me." Jin lay next to her son: "I can see clearly, there must be food at Mrs. Yang's house."

These words reached Zhao Changlin's heart, and he also thought so, it would be great if he could rob the grain and come back.

I went back to the east room with my hands behind my back, and lay down with soreness all over. I was so hungry that I couldn't sleep because I was so frightened. If my legs and feet weren't so bad, I would have stuttered when I went hunting in the mountains. There wasn't much food at home.

After thinking over and over again for a long time, Zhao Changlin got up and went to the Pan family's old house.

Ms. Zhao was cursing Pan Fangfang and telling Pan Fangfang to wash the clothes quickly. She hit Pan Yuling and Pan Yucui with a feather duster and told them to sweep the snow behind them.

Ever since Mrs. Pan became mute, Mrs. Zhao has become more and more powerful in this family.

Pan Erlin was sitting in the yard. When he saw Zhao Changlin walking in, he quickly got up and came over: "Brother, why are you here?"

"Something's wrong." When Zhao Changlin heard his sister yelling and scolding, he raised his voice and said, "Just live a good life, what are you doing?"

Mrs. Zhao heard the voice of her eldest brother and walked out quickly: "Brother, why are you here?"

"Come and sit down. I just heard about this. You have to be careful." Zhao Changlin sat on the stool: "They are going to arrest the strong men again. I don't care about other people's families. Yucheng is your only seedling. I'm afraid I won't be able to escape. .”

Hearing this, Ms. Zhao's face turned pale with fright: "Then what should we do? Brother, Yucheng cannot be taken away, I am only a son like this."

"Come on! Listen to big brother!" Pan Erlin looked at Zhao Changlin nervously.

Mrs. Zhao burst into tears: "Pan Erlin, you are a loser! My eldest brother has lost his heart for your family! Do you still dare to shout at me?"

Zhao Changlin saw Pan Erlin lower his head, glanced at Zhao, and asked her to sit down to discuss, and then said: "You can't protect Jade City without breaking your muscles and bones."

"Brother, Pan Yuhu is one year younger than our Yucheng. Do you want me to go and have a look? If we really want to arrest him, let Pan Yuhu replace your nephew Yucheng." Zhao said with an idea.

Zhao Changlin narrowed his eyes: "Pan Yuhu hasn't been seen for a few days. I heard that someone saw him being carried back into the mountain."

Mrs. Zhao gouged out Pan Erlin and spat: "Ms. Yun's little hoof is like a sieve. I'm sure it's all fake! I won't believe it unless I see it with my own eyes!"

"There is another way. You two come closer and listen to me." Zhao Changlin finished speaking in a low voice. Mrs. Zhao fell to the ground unsteadily and subconsciously glanced towards the west wing.

Zhao Changlin sighed: "As a last resort, we can only use this method. You should think about it carefully. If we really want to arrest people, I will be speechless."

The Zhao couple sent Zhao Changlin to the gate. The two of them entered the room and had a long meal together. They didn't come up with a good idea, but they both kept their eyes on Pan Yuhu.

The village began to discuss the matter of arresting young men, and everyone in the house who had a man around felt uneasy and uneasy.

Su Yunnuan was not worried. Pan Yuhu's injury had been cured for three or two months. He would not use an injured person to catch a strong man. After preparing the pills, Su Yunnuan planned to send them to Baicaotang. Shopkeeper Xue from Dengxian Restaurant came first. , took another month's material package, and took Su Yunnuan with her to Qingniu County to deliver medicine.

As the carriage left the village, shopkeeper Xue said: "Miss Su, you should be careful. The refugees from the north are coming to our side. I'm afraid it will be even more chaotic."

"Refugees?" Su Yunnuan never knew what was going on outside. She only knew how to fight everywhere, but she didn't know who was fighting whom. Taking this opportunity, Su Yunnuan asked shopkeeper Xue: "What happened to these refugees?" What's the matter?"

Shopkeeper Xue sighed: "We have a foolish king in the Dasheng Kingdom! Fifteen years ago, all the princes of Zhenguo were beheaded, and the Qi Family Army was scattered among the people. Only General Cui led the Cui Family Army to guard Longmen Pass and resist the Changyi Kingdom. Three Years ago, the foolish king became more and more foolish, and the three kings raised their troops to rebel. The people had no good life. The refugees came from Yumen Pass, and I was afraid that the Changyi Kingdom was about to attack."
