Daohua clutched the corner of her clothes tightly and whispered in Mrs. Wang's ear: "Mom, tell me, we won't encounter robbers, right?"
Mrs. Wang gave her a stern look: "Where did the robbers come from in the blue sky? No one will think you are mute if you don't speak." It's true that you don't open and lift certain pots. Do you know how worried she is about this matter? Otherwise, what would happen?
Will so many people be invited to escort you?
Daohua lowered her head nervously, and no one among the men accompanying her outside spoke. They could only hear the sound of the wheels rolling, and everyone hurried on in silence.
Soon we came to the fork in Dahe Town and turned right to take the road to the county.
There were more and more horse-drawn carriages on the county road. Mrs. Wang straightened her back and relaxed her tense nerves.
After walking forward for a while, suddenly an out-of-control carriage rushed forward. It seemed that the horse was frightened and ran forward desperately. The driver shouted, "Get out of the way, get out of the way."
Go up, people and money have to be thrown into the sky.
Seeing that he was about to hit him when he couldn't avoid it, the coachman suddenly saw a branch road next to him. In desperation, he could only drive the carriage onto the branch road to avoid the out-of-control carriage.
When the driver stopped the car in shock, he realized that the path was too narrow to turn around.
"Find a wider place in front and turn around, and the guys will follow." Shen Yunlai said hello, and then led the men from the village to follow the carriage and move forward.
Mrs. Wang was almost thrown off the carriage just now. Fortunately, He Xiang was quick to catch her, but she still ducked and kept moaning.
The carriage drove forward for a while, getting further and further away from the main road, but still couldn't find a place to turn around.
Shen Yunlai felt a strong sense of uneasiness in his heart. On such a deserted mountain trail, if he encountered a robber,
"Everyone, be careful, take this guy out." Shen Yunlai greeted, and the five big men raised their kitchen knives and butcher knives and started to defend themselves.
He really came to whatever he was afraid of, and before he had taken two steps forward, dozens of masked gangsters suddenly burst out from the forest, each holding a bright sword and surrounding everyone.
When Mrs. Wang saw it, she cried out incessantly, "Oh my god, we really attracted bandits."
"Keep the things, we won't hurt anyone." The leader, carrying a knife, shouted to Shen Yunlai and others.
They were all farm men, and there were so many people on the other side. Shen Yunlai and the others almost gave in, but with so much money in the car, who would be willing to give it away? Shen Yunlai bravely said: "How dare you rob me in the clear sky?
Aren’t you afraid of being caught and jailed?”
The group laughed loudly, "We are afraid of nothing but poverty. Stop talking nonsense, leave the carriage and get out of here." The leader said as he approached the carriage, "Yeah~~ There is a beauty in the carriage.
Here, come out and show me?"
"What do you want to do?" Mrs. Wang protected Daohua in the corner, and Daohua shivered in fear.
"Old Qian woman, if you don't get out of the way, I will cut you with a knife." The robber leader said, stabbing Mrs. Wang in the face with the knife. Mrs. Wang screamed, covered her face, and rolled down.
carriage.
The leader of the robbers got into the car and grabbed Daohua's hair to force her to raise her head. When he saw Daohua's fragrant appearance, he was immediately moved, "Hee hee, look at this thin skin and tender meat, it must taste good, uncle is having meat today."
He tore Daohua's clothes roughly.
"Yunlai, help." Daohua screamed while resisting.
"Boy, if you dare to touch your head, your life will be at risk." Someone had already stabbed him in the neck, as had several other people.
Shen Yunlai's face was filled with grief. He wanted to resist but was grabbed by Mrs. Wang, whose face was covered with blood. The carrot pit was still there, and what a man, Yufen took the initiative to steal someone.
On the carriage, Daohua cried and begged for help, but in the end he could not withstand the strength of a grown man, and was soon bullied by the robbers in front of so many people.
This wasn't the end yet, two more came up, and Daohua was finally tortured to the point of passing out.
In the end, the five men following the carriage, the driver, and Mrs. Wang's family were all tied to a tree, and the robbers drove away in the carriage.
The next day an old man who went into the mountain to cut firewood found them and released them.
Several people stopped a carriage on the road, went to the county to report to the officials, and then returned to Shenjia Village.
Daohua was so wronged that as soon as she returned home, Shen Yunlai gave her a five hundred tael of silver notes and apologized to her.
"I'm sorry, madam. It's not that I didn't save you. The knife was on my neck at that time. If I moved my head, it would definitely fall to the ground."
Daohua, who was covered in wounds and extremely exhausted, lay on the bed and said in a weak voice: "It's okay. It's all over. As long as you don't dislike me.'
"I don't mind it, I don't mind it, but you should go and wash yourself quickly. There are so many people and it's so dirty.
Daohua sat up: "You still think I'm dirty, don't you?"
"That's not what I meant. What if, what if I get pregnant? Clean yourself and get some medicine."
Daohua gritted her teeth and got up without saying a word. She hadn't eaten for two days. The first thing this man did when he got home was not to get her some food, but to ask her to wash herself. No one knew how disappointed she was.
Spring plowing is almost here at the end of March. We cannot rush to build the house at this juncture. We will wait until everyone has been busy for a while. However, we can mobilize the peach trees on the mountain.
Ji Xun wants to use peach blossoms to make wine, and Shen Yuyu wants to use peach blossoms to study perfume. Besides, if peach trees are planted into forests, tourism development is not impossible.
The big river in Dahe Town is a canal that leads directly to the capital. This spring, the river has swollen and there are fewer boats. In previous years, a lot of boats docked in Dahe Town. Shenjia Village is not far away. It only takes half an hour by carriage. Changing Jiacun to "Taoyuan Village", hehe, it seems to be quite interesting.
Now let's mobilize the villagers and ask them to plant as many peach trees as possible.
With the support of the village chief and clan chief, the villagers had breakfast that day and carried benches to Shaiguping for a meeting.
When Shen Yuyu and Ji Xun arrived, everyone was sitting in rows. The village chief and the clan chief took turns speaking and mobilizing. Now it was Ji Xun's turn.
Ji Xun wore a light blue leather robe with a waistband and wide sleeves, with a long body.
This is the first time he has met everyone so formally in the village for so long. Everyone's previous impression was that he had leg problems, but few people paid attention to his appearance. Now he stands in front of people openly, his chin The slightly raised and falling black hair slightly covers the scars on his face. His face is like jade, and his lips are like red spots. He is so handsome and elegant.
Ji Xun turned out to be so good-looking, and everyone couldn't help but be stunned.
"Neighbors, the village chiefs and clan chiefs have also said that. On behalf of Fengming Restaurant, I would like to purchase your peach blossoms at the price of one tael of silver per catty. If you are willing, you can sign a contract first and receive two taels of silver per catty. The deposit of two silvers will be paid until the baby is born." As soon as he said this, everyone was excited.
"One tael of silver per catty? Did I hear wrongly?'
"You heard me right, you heard me right, hurry up and sign the agreement. This is many times better than growing corn and sweet potatoes."
