The peasant girl who escaped the desert: she cried when she found the cruel prince

Chapter 69

This is because he was born into a poor family, and he is reluctant to throw away a thread. But let alone the dead man's clothes, it is unlucky. He has killed people, so he still thinks it is unlucky.

That night, everyone in Jingjia Village was smiling.

Several large iron pots by the river were burning brightly, and the old ladies were beating cakes, chopping the game into small pieces and throwing them in.

The women cleaned the wild vegetables they picked and rolled out some dough to make dumplings with the wild vegetables. The first dumpling meal on the road to escape the desert must be attended by everyone.

Zhu Chengcai looked at the men who were making dumplings with disdain on his face: "It's totally disrespectful for a gentleman to be a chef at a distance!"

Mrs. Ge yelled from behind: "Hurry up and get firewood. Our family doesn't have free food and drink. Don't you see that the children of several years old are washing dishes and chopsticks?"

He Ziyu, who was bandaging the wounds of the men in the village, shook his head and laughed. The people in this village are really interesting. There is no so-called defense between men and women. Everyone divides work and cooperates and gets along very harmoniously. Although it only lasted half a day, he could see that this group of people were harmonious. The refugees next to me are different.

He would never rely on his own strength to bully others, nor would he be kind-hearted in helping those refugees. He would just take care of his own big family and not pay any attention to other things.

Zhu Chengcai went to hug the firewood angrily, but he bumped into Wang Tan head-on. He immediately stared blankly. Among the ragged refugees, there was a clean and well-behaved girl. This girl was also extremely beautiful. .

Zhu Chengcai looked at Wang Tan in a daze, but Wang Tan was not angry: "Young disciple, what are you looking at? If you look again, I'll dig out your eyeballs."

Well, this girl has successfully led the women of Jingjia Village astray. The ladies who used to be unable to find the words to curse can now use harsh words.

Zhu Chengcai was a little sarcastic: "Since a girl is a lady, she should abide by the rules and should not be so vulgar!"

Wang Tan rolled his eyes: "Aren't you friends with that Doctor He?"

Zhu Chengcai was stunned: "Yes, we are friends!"

Wang Tan put his hands on his hips: "Then he knew you were mentally ill, so why didn't he show it to you?"

After saying that, he pushed Zhu Chengcai away and ran all the way to find Jing Li, surrounded by low suppressed laughter.

He Ziyu was embarrassed to laugh at his friend, so he quickly turned his head to the side, fearing that he would not be able to hold back his laughter.

The water Jing Li just drank from her mouth sprayed far away. When she looked up, she saw Huo Shen standing not far away, looking at her thoughtfully.

Well, compared with this, Zhu Chengcai's illness is not even called illness.

At night, Wang Tan insisted on sleeping next to Jing Li. There was Xiao Cui next to him who didn't want to move. Under Wang Tan's intense gaze, Xiao Cui had no choice but to give up and move.

Jing Li was a little repelled by Wang Tan's acquaintance. She was used to being a loner, and suddenly someone was so intimate with her that she felt a little at a loss.

Wang Tan leaned on her and talked about Chang'an City: "It was an imperial city for hundreds of years. The previous dynasty moved the capital to Luoyang. I also heard people talk about the grand scene there, but I never imagined that one day I would travel across mountains and rivers to go there. .”

Jing Li kept chatting with her: "Where did your father go? Why didn't you go together? If we had gone together in the first place, we wouldn't have been so scared along the way!"

Wang Tan looked a little unnatural: "Our Wang family's old residence is in Luoyang."

Jing Li saw her hesitation and uneasiness: "Go to bed early and try to arrive in Chang'an as soon as possible. I also want to go shopping with you."

The road behind them went extremely smoothly. Although there were more and more refugees on the road, there were still some people carrying baskets and loaders, and some drivers who had some financial resources, so they would not commit robberies.Let's look at the two hundred or so people. Not to mention the men, all of them are tall and strong, but the women also look fierce. Who would dare?

Three days later, we arrived at the entrance of Tongguan. The meandering flow of people was far away. Fortunately, it was already mid-August, and although the weather was hot, it was still bearable.

People in front of them commented one after another: "It is said that the wealthy families in the city have set up porridge shacks. It would be great if I can ask for a bowl of hot porridge and two steamed buns."

"No, I had to drink cold water and eat dry food to deal with it along the way. It's been a long time since I've eaten anything that's hot in my mouth. My baby's body can't stand it any longer."

"Hey, I have to run faster and see if I can drink two big bowls of hot porridge."

A few people were chatting excitedly, but someone next to them poured cold water on them: "What are you thinking about? Let's see how we divide it. If we don't divide it well, we won't even be able to get in, let alone asking for porridge."

When Jing Li heard this, he quickly called Wan Baoquan and Jing Dafu. These two people had relatively good handling skills. Jing Li was also dressed in men's clothing. The three of them packed up a little more cleanly and decently and squeezed to the city gate.

Before I even got close, I heard the city guard shouting: "I told you not to crowd in here and ask questions. There are notices over there. Go and see them by yourself. I have to ask every one of them. I will be exhausted."

When the three of them heard this, they quickly squeezed towards the notice. Jing Dafu and Wan Baoquan cleared the way before forcefully pushing Jing Li forward.

The person next to me was unhappy: "Why are you squeezing? Why don't you come over and take a look after we finish watching!"

Jing Dafu raised his arms to protect Jing Li: "Look? Do you recognize what is written on it? My young master has read books."

The people next to him immediately gave way. The reason why so many people surrounded him was because no one could read. The people behind him didn't know what was going on in front of him, so they surrounded him one by one.

Wan Baoquan was naturally literate. He read while reading to the people around him, but Jing Li was horrified.

There are just a few ways to deal with refugees.[-]. Return to the place of origin and promise to have friendly consultations with the local authorities and ensure proper resettlement.

This is nonsense. We have already come this far. If you ask someone to go back, the whole world belongs to his Tantai family. If we could have a good discussion, there would be no need to come all the way here.

Bad review!Just this one thing made Jingli fall in love with the fourth prince.

[-]. Join the military household. You must know that in ancient times, military household status was a lowly status. In the future, all children and grandchildren will have to join the army, and they will not be able to escape.

[-]. Corvee labor, going to build city walls and border defense facilities, and you are exhausted and have no food to eat.

50. Those with innocent wealth can win over farmers, but resettlement fees are required, which is [-] taels of silver per person.

Of course, there are also countless people who sell themselves directly and become slaves of wealthy families, and there are countless people who are abducted and directly thrown into remote places for cultivation.

As far as Jingli knew about the treatment of refugees, there were some who could not be relocated and were directly recruited as husbandmen to be used as cannon fodder, or they were directly killed under various excuses. The fourth prince still had some reputation, so he should not be able to do so and directly be killed. That kind of thing.

After listening to Wan Baoquan read the notice, everyone onlookers were silent. They were screened first and then paid. There were not many people who came here with half a steamed bun on their bodies, let alone paid.

"What should we do?" Jing Dafu said with a bitter look on his face: "There are so many of us, and we can only get a few thousand taels of silver. Even if we sell them all, it won't be enough!"
