Wei and Jin Cooks

   Chapter 306 Slaves

   Zhao Hanzhang couldn't help recalling his face in his mind. Does she look like a fool?

   Who knows, the village chief frowned and sighed, "Yes, as soon as you leave, Dazhuang's life will be difficult."

   Zhao Hanzhang blinked, does this really have a child?

   Fu Tinghan asked, "Didn't you say you are single?"

  The child is not Wu Erlang's. Since he is Erlang, there is naturally a Dalang.

   Wu Dalang has three children, and the two brothers have separated. Last year, Wu Dalang was protecting the family's belongings and was killed by deserters who rushed into the village, leaving three children.

   Soon, Da Zhuang brought his younger brother and sister to stand in front of Zhao Hanzhang. The three children were ragged and their faces were fairly clean, but their hands were full of mud. Before they came, they were digging grass roots in the field.

   The three of them sniffed, looked at Wu Erlang at a loss, and then looked at Zhao Hanzhang with his innocent eyes.

   Not to mention Zhao Hanzhang, even Fu Tinghan, who was on the side, was soft-hearted, and could not help but whisper: "Otherwise stay?"

   Zhao Hanzhang doesn't mind, but, "Do you know what it means to follow me?"

   Wu Erlang immediately knelt down with his three nephews and nieces, and said to Zhao Hanzhang: "Being a slave and a maid, a cow and a horse, I am willing to wait, as long as the nobles are willing to give us a bite to eat."

  The villagers who came to watch in the yard immediately followed: "We are also willing, we are also willing."

   Everyone looked at Zhao Hanzhang with bright eyes, and said, "We don't want to sell our bodies for money, we just need to give us food and we can use it."

   Everyone wanted to sell themselves to Zhao Hanzhang as slaves.

  Although I don't know who she is, but she can bring so many followers, and all of them have horses, so she looks very rich.

   Zhao Hanzhang was not happy at all, instead his face was a little gloomy.

But it was only for a while, she quickly laughed, rejected most of the people, and comforted: "As far as I know, Runan County has changed to a new county magistrate, the magistrate of Zhao County of Xiping County, she is definitely not I will sit back and wait for you to suffer, it is better to wait a little longer, maybe there will be a turnaround."

   She said: "It is better to be a good citizen if you can be a good citizen. Don't sell yourself easily."

   Zhao Hanzhang left only four Wu Erlang uncles and nephews.

   Everyone was envious, and they all went to see Wu Erlang with envy.

   Wu Erlang was also happy, but he was always a little uneasy in his heart. He lied to Zhao Hanzhang, and she also knew that he lied to her. Why did she choose him instead of others?

   There is always a kind of worry that she will be tortured at will by her after selling herself to her.

Wu Erlang's face changed. Seeing Zhao Hanzhang looking over, he smiled at her and moved to Fu Tinghan's side unconsciously. He explained his previous behavior, "Lang Jun, I lied to you before that I had parents, wife and children, because I was afraid You think my nephews and nieces are not close enough to me to give me more sesame seeds."

   Wu Erlang swore, "The cake you gave me, I ate it for my nephews and nieces. If you don't believe me, ask them."

   Big Zhuang nodded again and again, and emphasized for his uncle: "Most of the cake, the second uncle left it to us, he didn't eat a single bite!"

   Wujiro:  …

   Fu Tinghan was embarrassed for him.

   Zhao Hanzhang burst out laughing, and said to Wu Erlang: "We only stay for one night, and we will go to the county town tomorrow. Go back and pack your things now and make arrangements for your home."

   Wu Erlang saw that she didn't seem to be annoyed, he quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly responded.

   And the village chief has a better attitude towards her because she rejected the self-selling of most of the villagers.

   Now people are worthless and want slaves. If you don’t tell the money and buy them from people, you can buy a lot of people by setting up a table on the road, as long as you can get money and food.

  Although everyone sold themselves to live, selling themselves also meant life and death. If Zhao Hanzhang agreed, they would all be taken away, not to mention the village chief, even Wu Erlang and those who sold themselves would be frightened.

   But she chose to reject most people, not only Wu Erlang can follow her with confidence, but the village chief can also recommend some people to her with confidence.

   "My lord, in fact, Dazhu is very diligent. He is a good farmer. You will not lose if you buy him." He added: "Three dogs are good.

   That's why Zhao Hanzhang didn't accept them. It's best for such people to stay in the fields for farming.

   And a slick and treacherous person like Wu Erlang should be taken away by her and put elsewhere.

   Over the past night, Zhao Hanzhang and the village chief have gotten to know each other a lot. From the village chief, she has a general understanding of the village. Oh, and she also knows a lot about Wu Erlang's limited life.

   After all, she bought four Wu Erlang’s uncles and nephews. In order to make her feel at ease, and for Wu Erlang’s good, the village chief said a lot of good things about Wu Erlang while they were staying.

   Wu Erlang is nineteen this year, no wonder Zhao Hanzhang mistook him for an old man at first, because his face is more mature, and because he is poor, he has never been able to marry a wife.

Zhao Hanzhang can actually feel that the village chief doesn't like Wu Erlang very much, because this kid is cunning and cunning. He has bean fields and rice in his own family, and his brother's family also grows a few acres, but he takes three nephews and nieces with him. Not to mention cutting their own young crops, but to cut other people's homes.

   But the village chief resisted the unpleasantness, and recommended to Zhao Hanzhang: "This kid is smart, if the nobleman has something to do, just let him do it."

  The village chief paused and said, "He is also kind, alas, you can see that, he is nineteen, and his nephew is eight years old, so he and Wu Dalang are a little older in age."

"When Wu Dalang got married, he spent all his family savings. It was less than two years after his daughter-in-law entered the house, and Wu Erlang was 13 years old, so he was separated in a hurry. The two brothers were rarely together, but after Wu Dalang died, he still Raised three nephews and nieces."

   The village chief sighed: "It's been more than half a year since last year, and he's taking care of all three children."

   County magistrate Gao's face turned red, and he felt that it was not good for Zhao Hanzhang to hear such a case of unfriendly brotherhood, so he asked: "Did the uncle and sister-in-law get along so they separated?"

The village chief gave Gao County Magistrate a strange look. He was only the village chief of this small village, not Lizheng, so he did not recognize Gao County Magistrate. The family is very good, when the family split was still the Zhou family, Wu Erlang only got a few acres of land, and it was she who maintained it, and Wu Dalang took care of some Wu Erlang, otherwise the brothers would have already become enemies."

   He paused and said, "Wu Erlang takes care of his three nephews and nieces so much. He has their own blood relationship, but more should be to repay the Zhou family."

   Magistrate Gao's face became even redder.

   Zhao Hanzhang didn't think it was a matter of his county magistrate's indoctrination, but asked with interest, "What about the Zhou family?"
