Dressed as a villain's wife

Chapter 452 Out of the City
The four families left Yancheng, and even brought along many people who hesitated.

Even if the four families are unwilling to stay here, can these little commoners really trust this city lord?
"His mother, you wait, let's pack up our things and follow."

Some unbelievers gritted their teeth, greeted their mother-in-law and hurried back to the yard.

"Father, what are you doing!"

The woman's face was pale, and she didn't understand what her man meant.

"Let's go too! The He family is gone, I'm afraid this Yancheng won't be able to stay anymore! Hurry up and pack up your things, we'll follow you out of the city in a while!"

"This……"

"Go back quickly!"

After a lot of response, some people took the lead, and the others also began to waver, wondering whether they should stay in the city or not.

When Shen Wenchen came back from outside the city, he only saw a lot of people dragging their families out, and when they saw them, they lowered their heads and ignored them.

The thick snow was trampled into snow water, melted into the mud, and became one with the gray sky. Only the backs of those carrying thick bags added a little bit to this gray and lonely painting. angry.

"General."

When the guard at the gate saw Shen Wenchen coming back, his face turned pale, and he called for someone tremblingly.

Seeing their frosty brows and hair, Shen Wenchen didn't reprimand them after all, but just responded with a heavy voice.

"Ah."

There are six large villages and seven small villages outside Yancheng.

Each of the six large villages has a hundred households, and the small villages can have as many as thirty households, and the minimum is no more than seven households. These days, he led people to divide the people in those small villages into the big villages, and specially distributed them in each village. 50 people were left in the house to remove the rats for them.

Today he went to the nearest village. Many of the older houses had collapsed, and the village was full of blood left by rats after they were killed. Coupled with the stench from the fields, it looked very scary.

As for those who were bitten by rats, they either had persistent high fever or spasms of limbs with foaming at the mouth.

"General..."

Liu Jie saw that Shen Wenchen's face was wrong, and knew in his heart that he was upset about the affairs of the people outside the village, but he had to bear the responsibility for letting the brothers open the city gate.

"How is this going."

Shen Wenchen didn't want to say more, but looking at the people who were still hurrying out of the city, he felt unspeakably bitter.

The lord of a city is supposed to protect the people under his banner, but now...

After leaving Yancheng, it is unknown whether they can survive.

"General, these days when we closed the city, many people talked in private, saying that there was a natural disaster outside the city. We closed the city because we were afraid that they would know. They didn't believe us. They thought we were covering up the facts and trying to trap them in the city. Finally, finally So that my wife can sell those exorbitantly priced grains, and everyone clamors to go out of the city to find a way to survive.

Today, the leader of the He family came to call the door, and the subordinates were upset, since they don't believe us, why do we bother to protect them like this.

Kyoto is thousands of miles away from us, since they wanted to go there, their subordinates let it go. "

Liu Jie didn't hide what he thought in his heart, he was really worthless for the general and his wife.

It stands to reason that natural disasters and man-made disasters, the money for disaster relief is either paid by the local government, or it is waiting for the court to distribute it.

But in a place as rich as Yancheng, there is only a thousand taels of silver left in the account.

The cheap food bought by the people in the city is all paid for by the wife herself, but she still has to be questioned like that.

"Liu Jie, we are officials, so we must protect the people behind us."

Shen Wenchen looked at the backs of those who left the city and sighed.

"Forget it, since they want to leave so much, let them go."

The villages outside the city have not only sent food for the winter, but also sent soldiers to stay behind. As long as there are no other troubles, there should be no problems in a short time.

Nannan had sold a lot of grain and jerky at low prices before, and every household would stock up on grain for the New Year, so the people in the city could survive for a while.

It's a pity that the caravan sent by Nannan has not returned yet.

The old couple of the Lin family were a little restless in the city lord's mansion, they just sat in the lobby and waited for Nan Zhi to come back.

The daughter had already left the house an hour ago, but it's been so long, why hasn't anyone come back yet?

Now that she is a healthy person, don't let something happen to her...

The more she thought about it, the more anxious she became, and Mother Lin only felt 1 regrets in her heart.

Why didn't I go with my daughter just now?

"Old woman, what are you doing? I'm dizzy from turning around." Father Lin muttered, but there was also some worry in his eyes.

Today they can't hope for anything, but they just don't know if they are okay.

This city is full of people who want to run away, and he tried to persuade them, but he couldn't persuade them to come back.

Go out, go out, anyway, if something happens, you have to come back.

At that time, he still has to come back to beg his daughter and son-in-law.

Lin Shougui groaned in his heart, somewhat dissatisfied.

"This girl has been out for an hour, and she hasn't come back yet, can I not worry?"

Lin's mother gave him a blank look, but was annoyed that the older he got, the more he lived and went back.

"If you want me to say that you are too anxious, our daughter is a person who has a chance, and nothing will happen."

Father Lin comforted him.

This is not only a chance, but the kindness of the girl, in the past, would be kowtowed and thanked.

It's just that those people don't know anything, and I'm afraid that when the time comes, it's too late to regret it.

"You old man."

Mother Lin stomped her feet, ignored him, and turned around to go out.

She was really worried, so she had to go out and have a look.

The city is very chaotic right now, so don't be bumped into.

"Aniang, are you going out?" Nan Zhi bumped into his mother, seeing her in a hurry, thought she was going out.

"Why did you come back? I thought something happened."

Seeing that her daughter was safe and sound, Mother Lin felt relieved and just dragged her into the house.

"You are two people now, you have to be careful in everything, don't you understand?"

Mother Lin held her hand, with reproach and distress in her tone.

"You touch it yourself, your hands are freezing cold, it's not good for your body."

"Aniang, I'm fine." Nanzhi was a little helpless, but her mother had good intentions for her, so she couldn't say anything else.

"The city is chaotic now, you don't go out much, do you understand?"

"Okay. I got it, Mommy."

Seeing Nan Zhi nodding in agreement, Mother Lin let go of her hand.

"Come in and warm your hands."

"Mother, let me bring my brother and sister-in-law into the mansion."

As soon as Nan Zhi sat down, he spoke.

She went to the grain store just now, and there is indeed some chaos outside, if it goes on later, she doesn't know what will happen, and she can rest assured that her brothers and sisters-in-law bring their nephews into the house.
