Chapter 13

When they got to the place where they played, other people also arrived. It seemed that everyone wanted to go together.

Seeing her grandma, Lan Hua hurried over and wanted to help put the sheaves of wheat, so Grandma Lan Hua raised her hand to hide.

"You don't need it, grandma can just put it down by herself, how about it? Didn't you get scared just now?"

Putting down the wheat, rubbing his hands on his body, he reached out and touched Lan Hua's head and asked.

Lan Hua shook her head, not only did she not have a frightened expression on her face, but she said excitedly: "I'm not afraid, I even took a peek, those people are not Khitan people, I wonder if they are caravans that have walked this road before?

Could it be that the Khitan people outside have been driven away, and these caravans have started to come and go again? "

The other women were also very happy when they heard this. If so, they would not have to leave their hometowns.

Yang Dashan frowned and shook his head, "It's unlikely, we only met during the day, and it's only at night, how could we get out so quickly.

I'm afraid it's not the food transport team of the soldiers in the east. I heard from the merchant that the soldiers guarding the city had all gone to the east. Maybe the city over there didn't let them in and camped outside. "

Although the two cities are not far away, they belong to two factions now, and there are often frictions. Now that the Khitan people are added, it is estimated that the fight will be more lively in the future.

Xue Qingyan listened quietly on the side, wanting to know more about the situation here, but unfortunately, none of the villagers have ever been out, and they don't know much about it.

They collected another hour, and they called it a day when it was daylight. The roadside during the day was too dangerous to continue.

For the remaining unthreshed wheat, the heads of the wheat were chopped off with a kitchen knife and put into baskets.

Twelve people, each with a basket on their backs, went back.

There were still two people left in the village, a man and a woman, who continued to pack things for the road and looked at some of the things they had packed before.

Although there are no other people in the village, if there are people like them left in other villages, it's better to be on guard.

"Brother Shan, you are back, come with me and see what I found!"

As soon as they entered the village, one of the remaining men, Yang Shuanzhu, greeted them, reaching out to take the baskets carried on Yang Dashan's shoulders.

"But what did you find?"

Following his strength, Yang Dashan lowered the basket from his shoulders, but he didn't let go, but walked forward together with him.

Yang Shuanzhu's wrinkled black face was full of smiles, he raised his free right hand, and pointed to a yard in front of him on the right.

"I didn't take a pair of wheels from Yang Fugui's house. We can get a cart, and we can bring a lot of things with us!"

They are a group of old and weak, and what they can bring to salute is really limited. They were worried before that they could only bring a few clothes and bedding at most, and pots and pans had to be carried by the number of people, otherwise they would not be able to bring much food.

Well now, with a trolley, as long as the upper board is made bigger, it can hold a lot of things.

Yang Dashan was surprised, "Really! There is such a good thing?"

Yang Dawang, who was walking beside him, said, "Didn't Yang Fugui push the car away?"

"Yang Fugui's house seems to have two sets of wheels. I remember he made one later."

Yang Erzhuang said from the side.

"That's right, that's right, Yang Fugui made a pair of cart wheels the year before last, and his old one was a little cracked at that time, so it's probably because he changed his clothes."

Yang Youfu behind him nodded in agreement

Hearing this, Yang Dashan looked at Yang Shuanzhu, and asked worriedly: "Shuanzhu, are you just picking someone's lock? You can't do this! If we come back later, what will happen to the folks in this village?" ..."

Yang Shuanzhu quickly explained, "Brother Dashan, don't worry, am I that person? I found it in the haystack behind their house, and it was erected on the straw curtain covered with hay."

Yang Dashan nodded, "That's good, that's good. Well, it just so happens that it's already dawn, Er Zhuang, don't you know some carpentry work, let's get him the cart.

I used the ready-made door panels in my house for the wooden boards. I just made them last year, and they are stronger than the old ones. Anyway, I won’t need them in the future. "

Yang Erzhuang nodded, "Success, just listen to Brother Dashan, and use my family's if it's not enough. I haven't used it for a few years..."

Several people discussed and passed to the right.

The women were also delighted, they were all ready to carry heavy loads on their backs, and they did not expect to have unexpected surprises.

You know, a pair of wheels here is not so easy to come by. You have to go to a carpenter to order it, and you have to wrap it with iron or copper.

Most of the copper-clad ones belong to wealthy families. Poor families like them have to save money for a few years to cover a circle of iron sheets.

It is also economical to use it, and not all jobs will be pulled over by the cart.Even sometimes when the food is collected, if there is not much, it is carried on the shoulders of people, and it will be used only when it is really needed.

Just like this, it will crack after a few years, and it needs to be repaired or replaced with new wood.

Yang Fugui is quite worthy of his name, and his family is one of the best in the village.

There is also a donkey at home, so they spent a lot of money on a cart.

The origin of that donkey is also very legendary. It really wasn't property earned by their family, but Yang Fugui's father picked it up by accident on the side of the road.

It is said that when Yang Fugui's father went to water the field early in the morning, he found a little donkey in the ditch.

At that time, the little donkey was skinny and skinny, and one of its legs was injured.

I don't know if it was a wild donkey, or the dealer who sold the cattle saw it injured and threw it away.

Yang Fugui's father was in the village at the time, and he was also a well-known capable man, so he probably carried the donkey back to the village.

It was quite a sensation at the time. After carrying it back, although it was said that there was no money to find a doctor for it, it was taken care of by the whole family.

Unexpectedly, it got better day by day, and later he recovered.

Because the incident was quite a sensation, the head of the district even went to have a look, and saw that the donkey was so skinny and injured, it really didn't look like it was stolen from someone else's house, so he registered it.

At this time, all large animals have to be registered with the government, and whether they are bought or sold or died, they need to go to the government to tell them.

Since then, the donkey has taken root in Yang Fugui's family. Until now, the donkey has been in his teens, and when it comes to harvesting grain, it is a big labor for the family.

Every year, when everyone went to the town to go to the market, they would ride in Yang Fugui's donkey cart.

Of course, it's not in vain, and he will give a penny at least, which can be regarded as a big income for his family.

And just because of the arrival of this donkey, the life of Yang Fugui's family has become better and better, at least in Yangjiaping, it is considered a well-known good family.

Yang Fugui also married a beautiful daughter-in-law from a neighboring village, who gave birth to three fat boys.
