Traveling through the famine years, the best old woman, I was gnawed into the richest man by my children and grandchildren Chapter 195 Uncle, we must never let them enter the village!
Chapter 195 Uncle, we must never let them enter the village!
I thought that the old lady just asked him for help last time and said polite words.
Unexpectedly, he did what he said and even came to deliver it in person!
Xu Anzi blushed and lowered his head in embarrassment.
Back then, when I got other people’s things for free, why did I have the nerve to accept their money!!
For the first time, he felt ashamed to see this old lady.
Seeing the clues, Lin Tao smiled and handed over a basket of charcoal in her hand and said, "Mom, I want to ask you for help again. I'm sorry to come empty-handed, so I brought you some charcoal. Don't dislike it!"
Xu Anzi waved his hand and shook his head: "No, I don't mind! Madam thinks highly of me. If anything happens in the future, if you ask someone to tell you, I will do my best to handle it!"
"It's not a big deal! I just want to ask Brother Anzi to send me the news that Xu's grocery store in the south of the city has charcoal on consignment from my family."
"Ahem! I don't think it's a big deal! Don't worry, ma'am."
Saying that, Xu Anzi stepped aside and wanted to invite her in to sit down.
Lin Tao declined politely.
The best relationship between them is to maintain an appropriate distance.
While talking, Zhu Donghua had already carried three baskets of charcoal into Xu Anzi's house.
After speaking, an errand came to see Xu Anzi, so Lin Tao found an excuse and left first.
The bullock cart moved forward slowly, and the conversation between Xu Anzi and the visitor came from behind.
"I have been working as an official salt shop all these years in vain. I have made money, but I have lost my head."
"Did you really change exile to beheading?"
"That's not true! Who told him that he couldn't make any money, yet he dared to attack those gentlemen. How can the gentlemen get angry without cutting off his head?"
"That's right! If you do something evil, you will not be able to survive. A good business is not enough for him? He has to do that shameful thing."
"I just came here to tell Master Six that there is no need to leave for a long journey tomorrow. Once this matter is settled, Master Six will probably be promoted again."
Official Salt Shop?!
Lin Tao raised her eyebrows. It seemed that the boy whose balls she kicked to pieces had really revealed the shopkeeper's secrets!
However, compared to the evil old man, Lin Tao looked back at Xu Anzi. She had been promoted and her title had changed.
The first time we met, people still called him Xiaoliuzi.
This guy! He really has to climb up!
The long-term business of charcoal trading is now considered complete.
But since you are taking a script to get rich, you have to work hard!
However, on the way home, Lin Tao noticed something strange.
The dense footprints all along the way actually entered the path leading into the village from Official Road 8.
"Zhu Donghua! We have to go back quickly!"
In order not to rush back as quickly as possible, she threw the sled cart directly on the side of the road and walked and ran back with the cattle.
It's night.
Walking on the path in the wind and snow, the tired Zhu Donghua kept slapping her cheeks.
Lin Tao felt a slight pain in her heart.
According to the original plan, Zhu Donghua should catch up on her sleep in the bullock cart.
After walking all night and having no time during the day, it's no wonder Zhu was tired.
"Hold on a little longer."
"It's okay. Don't worry, Mom, I can walk." Mrs. Zhu shook the snow off her head.
When they turned the last bend in the path, fires appeared in the distance, lighting up the dark mountains.
It seemed that there were a lot of people coming along the official road, and there were more than ten fires outside the village entrance alone.
The village is also filled with flames, and there will be a fire dozens of steps away.
It seemed that those people were blocked at the entrance of the village.
Lin Tao narrowed her eyes unconsciously.
He pulled Niu Zaizi and made a ninety-degree turn.
"Let's take the trail on the mountain."
She walked out of this path herself when the villagers blocked her road.
It can be said that no one except her family knows.
Coupled with the heavy snow cover, few people in the village dared to walk on unfamiliar roads for fear of falling into a pit and landslide and losing their lives.
Those from outside are even less afraid.
Let Mr. Zhu lead the cow and walk in front, while Lin Tao picked up a few big branches and walked behind.
Wherever they stepped, she would carefully sweep the snow and cover up their footprints.
After getting down the ditch, crawling into the thorn bushes, and walking some distance, Lin Tao dropped the branches that were used to clear the snow.
"Don't be anxious. Look carefully before leaving. Don't hurt yourself."
"Yes!" Zhu responded.
The difficult journey takes more time than taking the main road.
Fortunately, she finally made it down the hillside in her backyard smoothly.
And the next second, someone shouted: "Who! Torch, hurry up!"
"It's me! The Zhu family of the Li family." Zhu Donghua responded first.
"Sister-in-law?"
Li Si rushed over, glanced at Zhu, and rushed towards her: "Mom! You are back! Something big happened in the village!"
"Where is your third brother?" Lin Tao stepped aside, and the fourth brother jumped into the air.
How old are you? You still think you are a child? When you see your mother, you throw yourself into her arms.
She was not used to Li Si's habit of acting coquettishly at every turn.
Several young men who followed Li Si held up torches and said, "Village Chief Li is discussing matters at the patriarch's house."
Lin Tao put Niu Zaizi's reins into Zhu's hands and went straight to Gong Chengliang's house.
When Wang Qiuyue saw her, she burst into tears.
"But I'm worried. I'm afraid that if you go out and bump into the homeless people outside when you come back, Village Chief Li just said that he would rush out to pick you up."
At this time, Li San, as if he had collapsed, sat slumped on the chair, staring at her blankly.
It was as if he couldn't believe that she was in front of him.
The uncles and uncles in the village who couldn't hear were also sitting in the courtyard.
Gong's interviewer, the old man who had presided over Gong Chengliang's succession ceremony, suddenly stood up as if he had seen a ghost.
"Village, wasn't the entrance to the village blocked by them? Where did you come in from?"
Lin Tao snorted: "Thank you for blocking my door before!"
The man sat back embarrassedly.
Gong Chengliang asked his son to bring a long bench over.
"Sister, you've come back just in time. Come on, come in and sit down and talk."
"Yes, yes, come in quickly." Wang Qiuyue took her hand: "Look, your hands are as cold as ice cubes! You sit down first, and I will ask my daughter to get you a hot handkerchief to cover it.
"
As soon as he sat down, Gong Qiqi brought a bowl out of the stove shed with a quick handkerchief.
The little girl is elegant and generous. When she smiles, she has two small dimples at the corners of her mouth, which is very cute.
"Auntie, Qiqi, please cover your hands. This freshly cooked ginger soup has warmed your hands. Take a few sips. Qiqi will put a fire in front of you later, and you can warm your feet."
The soft whispering voice is like the spring spring.
Seeing Gong Qiqi gently wrap her hand with a hot handkerchief, he was afraid that the wet handkerchief would get her clothes wet, so he brought a stool over and specially asked her to hold her hand.
The more she looked at it, the more she liked it.
Wang Qiuyue shouted in the kitchen shed: "Xiaoqi, come over quickly and take out the ginger soup."
After Gong Qiqi responded, he smiled sweetly at her and rushed back to the stove shed with his skirt in hand.
"Sister, the refugees at the entrance of the village are clamoring for us to take them in. What do you think?" Gong Chengliang asked.
Lin Tao said nothing and turned her gaze to Li San.
"Uncle, we must not let them enter the village!" Li San said bluntly. This chapter has been completed!
