Chapter 407

Chapter 407 Refugees coming

You eat by yourself, live behind closed doors, and focus on your health. No matter how nourished you are, you must maintain your filial piety for your family and not wear down your body. Otherwise, how can you have the physical strength to work?

Of course, she is not the real person and has no idea of ​​filial piety.

But when entertaining guests, you have to pay attention to your image. Even for drinks, she only prepared sake. It was just a formality.

After everyone had eaten and drank enough, they talked in the yard for a while before they dispersed.

Bai Yunxi and Du Shi walked to the door one by one, then turned around and came back. She couldn't help but rub her waist. I really can't do the job of entertaining people too much, it's too tiring.

In a blink of an eye, it’s autumn harvest again.

According to the standards of the summer harvest, I asked the second child to go to the town to hire a few part-time workers. I don't know if it was fate, but the few people hired were still the same ones from the summer harvest.

With the cooperation from last season, everyone is familiar with each other and can work more efficiently.

With delicious food and drink available, seize the time to collect the grain into the granary, and then continue to sow winter wheat.

Listening to my mother's serious tone, several people's faces turned ugly.

"Mom, do you think they are the rumored refugees?"

These people were dressed in shabby clothes, dirty, and covered in mud.

After entering the town, she suddenly discovered that there were many outsiders in the town.

With such a combination, the timing just happened to be wrong.

These people have the same characteristics as those seen in the town, that is, they are thin and tired.

Seeing this, Baiyunxi felt panicked. She was really afraid that something might happen. She quickly went home to gather people and told everyone what she saw in the town.

Someone has inquired about it a long time ago. They all fled from the northwest.

After leaving the town, I saw some people walking towards the town one after another.

I heard people say that they are all people who came here recently to beg, and there are quite a few of them.

Li Shi blinked and asked curiously.

Seeing these people, Bai Yunxi's heart sank, and he hurriedly bought something and went home.

After working intensively for more than ten days, the food finally came into the warehouse. When the winter wheat was sown, Baiyun Xi finally breathed a sigh of relief and went to the town to buy some ingredients to prepare for a treat.

This time, Baiyunxi plans to sow winter wheat on all the eastern and western slopes of the mountains, and can sow a season of late rice after next year's harvest.

"So, don't be so kind-hearted as to lure people into your home, especially the young and strong laborers. You must not provoke them. Fortunately, our autumn harvest and sowing have been completed. If there is nothing going on in the near future, don't go out easily.

Son."

"More and more people are coming to us to escape famine, and they are all fleeing from the northwest. Although they look pitiful, these people can come all the way from the northwest to us. They are not ordinary people."

Although these people's clothes are not shabby, the fatigue and vicissitudes of life on their faces cannot be concealed. It seems that they have come from a very far away place.

When Mrs. Du heard the word "refugee", her face changed, and she couldn't help but feel happy. Fortunately, they had built the house before, and as long as the door was closed, the refugees couldn't get in.

"Mom, what should we do?"

Bai Anyan rubbed his hands and looked at the women and children at home, worried.

"Nothing else to do, just stay at home. We can't control the refugees outside, and we can't provoke them. It depends on how big the number can be. If it's a lot, the government will intervene. If it's a few, we probably have to rely on ourselves.

Cope with it.”
