After saying this, the Zhou family members of the Song family were obviously a lot more relaxed, and their tone was lighter: "The Zhang family did not suffer many injuries. In addition to the Zhang and Wang family, one family lost their lives, and another family lost their strong labor force. Now only the remaining

The old, the weak, the women and the children...

Alas, that family was so poor that they fought tooth and nail for food. Alas, my fifth uncle... was also poor and troubled."

It is difficult to raise two poor grandchildren...

Pei Yu heard the voice of Zhou's words, but she didn't say anything and her family was poor.

"It's not a big deal on Liu's side. About ten people were injured and one died, just the village scoundrel. That scoundrel's death was in vain."

Zhou's tone of voice was obviously disdainful when talking about this second mistress, simply because the rogue had once hit her second daughter's attention.

Of course, a rogue would not take the serious approach and ask the children of the clan to push the girl into the pond. He has a bad reputation.

Although he did not succeed, because of this incident, the Liu family was ostracized by the Song family and lost more and more say in the village.

The Liu clan has the smallest number of people, but they all have a good foundation, so no one is fighting for food, so it is normal for them to suffer the least damage.

"No one with the foreign surname died, except for the second son of the Fang family who was seriously injured, but all of them were clever and knew how to save their lives." The foreign surname in Zhou's mouth refers to the people who have escaped and settled down in recent years. It is the norm in troubled times.

People with foreign surnames do not have the protection of the clan, so they always stick together to keep warm, and they are also afraid of being bullied by the locals.

The folk customs in this area are quite good, but I have never heard of local clans bullying foreign surnames. Therefore, there are more foreign surnames living in the villages at the foot of the mountains than elsewhere.

After the establishment of the new dynasty, the government re-recorded the household registration, fields, etc. Now these people are considered locals. With the household registration, they have the foundation to settle down and live.

"People who leave their homes and flee are always more alert. Most of them come from far away, and they naturally cherish their lives while wandering all the way." Pei Yu said calmly.

I can’t help but sigh when I think of the original owner’s family’s escape process.

Mrs. Zhou shut up when she heard this. She had forgotten that the Pei family also had a foreign surname.

The Pei family came early and settled down for nearly twenty years. The Pei family is really capable and has never suffered a loss in so many years.

Naturally, no one dared to look down upon them. In Zhou's eyes, the Pei family was different from those who came later with other surnames.

Pei Yu didn't care what the Zhou family thought. She had the confidence. Even if she didn't have the strength, her family would still be her support.

With Zhou's explanation, Pei Yu understood the situation in the village clearly. It looked tragic, but in fact only those who resisted fiercely were killed and injured.

Compared with the troubled times and banditry in the original owner's memory, it was not serious. Most people were safe after handing over their wealth honestly.

Most of them were flesh wounds, and most women and children were frightened, while only the Zhang family was exterminated.

Gangsters are always after money. The villagers have just experienced troubled times and know what is most beneficial.

For families with elders at home, the whole family is basically safe, but all their money and food have been robbed.

Of course, the men were all more or less injured.

As for the women, there is only one beauty named Qin.

Come to think of it, the villagers are poor, most of them are sallow and thin, and even if they have some appearance, they are not noticeable.

It is common for women from poor families to lose their looks due to hunger, and young girls to be skinny and emaciated, not to mention pretty.

Don't even so-called "well-off people" like her still have enough to eat?

As a mother-in-law, she still has a sallow complexion, dull hair, and little flesh on her face. Now she can't even be considered sub-healthy!

Let's just say that no matter how good the family is, such as the patriarch's family, the Zhou family seems to be generally doing well.

But if you look closely, he's not much better than her. His complexion is still yellow, and his hair is still dull, but his face is fleshier than hers.

In other words, Mrs. Qin didn't go out for many years, and her husband loved her, and she was well-raised, which made her look more beautiful, which also caused trouble.

With his thoughts flying around, Mr. Zhou stopped.

Pei Yu raised her eyes, oh, here we are.

The door of the house was painted white, and the hut in the yard was dilapidated, which made it a bit eerie. Fortunately, it was daytime, otherwise she would not have dared to enter.

"Wild flowers? Wild grasses?" Mrs. Zhou pushed open the fence door and shouted while looking around.

Pei Yu didn't speak, as it didn't fit her personality, but she also searched around the yard and house.

The names of these two children are really down-to-earth, and it is said that they are meant to make a living.

Uncle Wu felt that it was not good to have too much blessing in his name, and if he couldn't suppress it, he would be in trouble, just like him.

Pei Yu didn't comment on this, after all, Uncle Wu's life was really bleak.

However, she feels that the name is just a code name, which is convenient for addressing and distinguishing. As long as it is not too unpleasant, there will be no problem.

"Hey, where have these two children gone? If it's later, the mourning hall at the ancestral hall has been set up, and we have to pay homage to the deceased!"

Mrs. Zhou would come to see the two children at this juncture, just to let the children go to watch the fifth uncle's funeral.

The people in this disaster all died violently, and according to local customs, the corpses were not allowed to enter the house.

The funeral was naturally arranged in the family ancestral hall, but women were not allowed to enter the main hall, and the mourning halls of Fang and Zhang were placed in the side room.

The fifth uncle was a man, a serious descendant of the Song family, so the funeral of Song Changfu was arranged in the main hall of the ancestral hall, which made the arrangements quick.

Now there are only two children left. The fifth uncle has a grandson, so naturally he will die with his grandson!

After searching for the small yard, Pei Yu frowned slightly. The fifth uncle's family was really poor. Neither poverty nor poverty was enough to describe it!

No wonder they worked so hard for food. I'm afraid that food was life-saving food for their grandparents and their three families.

Although the autumn harvest is almost here, there are still two months left, and it is useless if we don’t have food rations that can last until the autumn harvest.

"Are the two children hungry? Maybe they are looking for something to eat." Pei Yu saw that Mrs. Zhou was anxious and gave an ordinary suggestion.

Mrs. Zhou affirmed: "No, I just ate in the morning. It hasn't been long. Even if you are hungry, you should go home. Where can the two children go to find something to eat?"

"Does Uncle Wu's family have any other property?"

"Family property? Yes! Two acres of dry land and one acre of paddy field. I know where it is!" After saying this, Mrs. Zhou left happily.

Pei Yu had no choice but to follow him. Although she asked casually, she had no clue at the moment.

"Wildflowers! Wildgrass! Wildflowers!"

On the edge of the field, Zhou shouted while searching, which made Pei Yu find it difficult to listen.

Zhou searched around but still couldn't find the child, but she was very tired. Pei Yu also felt a little tired after walking around.

"Nai! Tits! Tits!"

A sudden and inarticulate shout came from the woods next to the field. It was the voice of a child. He was young and could not speak clearly.

Pei Yu ran over immediately. It was one thing that he couldn't find anyone, but it was another thing that the child was in danger!

As soon as Pei Yu stepped into the forest, a child bumped into her. Pei Yu almost knocked the child away.

"Nainai! Sister! Sister Xiu!" The little girl was strong but not crying, and she even raised her head anxiously to call her.
