Chapter 18 pondering
There are still seven days until the gold finger is opened, but only two days before the date of delivery.

There is no food in the family.

The autumn harvest has not yet arrived, and even if it does, there will be no grain harvested in the fields. Every household in the village is in a tight situation. It is difficult for my family to pay grain taxes, and it is impossible to count on them to help.

Bai Xia's heart was unusually heavy.

"Sanya, I don't, I won't leave, I want a mother, I want a mother"

Li Xiuyuan's eyes were red from crying, and he hugged Bai Xia's waist tightly with both hands, with fear and bewilderment about the future in his eyes.

He has lived in the village since he was born, and he has never even been to the town. He is afraid of leaving Lijia Village and going to some strange places.

"Mother said, without land, we would not be able to live."

"We're gone, there's no land left"

"We will become refugees, beggars, Sanya, if we don't go, okay, we won't go"

"The Grand Duke is the head of the village, the Grand Duke will definitely help us"

Li Xiuyuan read some books, and occasionally his master would talk about other knowledge. He learned some, but he didn't understand it. He only knew that if he escaped from the place where he was born and raised, they would become refugees and beggars.

He was trembling with fear at the thought of living a life of begging on the street without stopping to eat.

He buried his head in Bai Xia's arms, his eyes were pitch black, and in just a moment, they changed back to teary eyes, leaving only fear.

"But if we don't escape, we won't be able to survive."

Bai Xia is lost in thought.

To escape or not to escape, may be death.

Escaping may be easy, but what happens after escaping?
She and Li Xiuyuan are both children, and it is impossible to be a refugee for the rest of their lives. They always have to find a place to resettle and settle down again.

But all this has to wait until the imperial government's resettlement policy comes down. If the imperial court does not come down with the resettlement policy, the two of them will always be refugees. Li Xiuyuan can no longer study. Some suburbs settled.

There is no such thing as a female household in the imperial court. If a widow loses her husband, has no sons, and has an in-law’s family, she can still rely on her in-law’s family.

Because if you don't remarry, you will have no land, no household registration, and you will not be able to survive in this era.

"There will be a way, Brother Yuan"

Bai Xia's face darkened, she would definitely run away, but she had to think about it.

"I'm going to get something to eat"

She pushed Li Xiuyuan away, lit another oil lamp and walked towards the kitchen.

They just killed a pig, so they don't lack oil for the time being, but they don't have much oil.

Bai Xia picked some pig's blood and mixed it with wild vegetables to make pig's blood soup. She had to go to the village head tomorrow.

After Bai Xia left, Li Xiuyuan's complexion in the room sank, he didn't look like a five-year-old child at all.

He got up and left the house, and walked towards Lin's house, searching for something inside, but after searching for a long time, he couldn't find anything.

"Where did you go?"

"I clearly remember that mother put it here?"

He touched Lin's pillow, searched inside and out, but couldn't find it.

"Sanya wants to leave. I am only five years old now. I have no choice but to follow her. But these days, leaving the village is courting death. There will be chaos outside. We two children are afraid that they will be targeted by those vagrants. Why? What to do? What to do?"

Li Xiuyuan's complexion became more and more ugly, as if thinking of some bad memory, his eyes were a little red.

"Brother Yuan?"

Bai Xia's doubtful voice came from the next room, he quickly put away his expression, and ran to the door of the next room.

"Three Ah"

He stood at the door, looking at her timidly.

"Let's go and eat"

Bai Xia led him to the main room and sat down. Li Xiuyuan looked down and saw a bowl of blood-red pig's blood soup. His stomach twitched, recalling some bad memories, but he forcibly suppressed them , Suppressing the feeling of vomiting, he drank a bowl of pig blood soup.

Bai Xia didn't have as much thought as he did. Although the original owner Bai Sanya had seen some bad things, but after all, it was only the experience of the original Bai Sanya, not hers, so Bai Xia drank pig blood soup , is no problem at all.

After eating and washing the dishes, Bai Xia put Li Xiu Yuan to sleep, and went to the yard to practice martial arts in the dark.

She also knew that if the two children escaped from the crowd, they would inevitably meet some people with malicious intentions. They didn't want to become martial arts masters, but they still had the minimum ability to protect themselves. Even if they couldn't beat them, they still had to run away. have to take off.

She practiced punching twice in a row, thinking about escaping while practicing.

She is Li Xiuyuan's child bride-in-law. They have a marriage certificate and their household registration is also in the Li family, but they are not married, so she has no genealogy of the Li family.

After escaping, she and Li Xiuyuan would not be able to settle down without the guarantee of the clan, and since her surname is Bai, it is basically impossible to plan a household registration in the name of her siblings.

Don't underestimate the troubled times. The more troubled times are, the more you are afraid of being sneaked in by spies. Let alone whether the imperial court has a policy for refugees to settle down. If there is a relocation, the earliest household registration needs to be verified.

If there is a discrepancy, they will not be allowed to settle down.

Bai Sanya was originally a refugee, and finally settled in Lijia Village, and now she escapes again, and becomes a refugee again. If she wants to settle in the future, the government will definitely find Lijia Village, and even find out Baixia's earliest time. in the village.

The imperial court’s treatment of the refugees was either resettlement on the spot or sent back to their original place. It’s okay to repatriate their original place. , may be a dead word.

Therefore, it is best to seek local resettlement.

But this matter is still early, no one knows what will happen in the future, what is the arrangement of the court.

Therefore, not only did she have to be on the same household registration booklet as Li Xiuyuan, but she had to be tied to death. From a child bride-in-law to his real daughter-in-law, it was convenient for her to settle in a different place later.

Bai Xia thought to himself, after punching, the food in his stomach was almost digested.

Fortunately, there was still a lot left at dinner, so she went to the kitchen in the dark, drank the remaining pig blood soup, and felt full of strength. After drinking the soup, she went back to the house and saw that Li Xiuyuan was sleeping soundly. I couldn't help pinching his face.

“Slept well”

After finishing speaking, he also lay down and fell asleep, and at this time, it was almost midnight.

She who was asleep didn't notice that Li Xiuyuan opened his eyes in the darkness, looked at her sideways, and murmured in his heart: "Are you about to start?"

"This time, I will definitely protect you, Sanya"

He put his immature hands on Bai Xia's head, not daring to touch her, only caressing her vaguely.

Fu lay on the bed obediently, looking at the roof, thinking about how to prevent her from discovering his abnormality, and how to grow up to protect her, but after thinking for a long time, he still succumbed to his five-year-old body.

What can a doll do?
Li Xiuyuan's face turned dark, and after thinking about it, he found that he couldn't do anything.
