Chapter 17: Distribution with Disaster Victims
"Yes!" The soldier immediately took the token, went to the warehouse tent to collect supplies, and sent them to the Qin family tent.
The little kids like Qin Xiaomi were so happy that after the soldiers who delivered the things left, they squatted in front of the supplies and looked at them, and said to Qin Xiaomi: "Sister Xiaomi, it seems like the Chinese New Year."
< br>Qin Xiaomi smiled and touched His face was so thin that he said: "You are only four years old. Do you still remember what it was like during the Chinese New Year?"
Qin Xiaomai: "Of course I do. The Chinese New Year is very lively. There are a lot of delicious food, dad. And my mother..."
Thinking of his dead parents, the little guy stopped, pursed his lips and felt so sad that he wanted to cry, and then he quickly laughed: "Anyway, I am as happy as the New Year now."
"Then let's celebrate the New Year early today." Qin Xiaomi said to Grandma Qin: "Grandma, you are recovering from illness and are weak. You must take some good supplements, otherwise you will not be able to hold on when you are on the road again."
Qin Liupo said hurriedly: "Hey, you have to take good care of it, and you can't get sick again... I'm going to kill the chickens. Sister Shu doesn't have to do this kind of rough work, let me do it!"
I picked up the pheasant and ran outside. After working for half an hour, I cooked a large pot of chicken and mixed grains. It looked like pig food, but the meat was fragrant, making the victims in the nearby tents ravenous.
The next day, word spread that the Qin family had been rewarded. The victims in the camp were extremely jealous, but they did not dare to say a sour word: "Village Chief Lao deliberately provoked trouble and took advantage of the Qin family. , wanted to send his daughter to climb a high branch, but Fan Qianhu ordered her to be beheaded, we must be honest, otherwise we will end up like the village chief Lao!"
Fan Qianhu also informed the Tao County government about the replacement of medicinal materials and helped Tao County survive the cold disaster... Unfortunately, King Wuxing was now considered a traitor, so the county government did not dare to give anything in return.
Fan Qianhu didn't care either: "Just let the officials and people along the way know that King Wuxing is a wise master."
The large team running eastward stayed in Tao County for another five days. God, wait for the recovered victims to recover and continue their journey.
We drove in the wind and snow all the way, and didn’t stop to celebrate the New Year until the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month.
"Grandpa Qin, Grandma Qin, Fan Qianhu and Military Doctor Shen gave us a piece of pork, as well as pork belly and weeds. We can make pig meat and eat it." Jiang Dalang handed the things to Grandma Qin. .
Since searching for medicinal herbs to treat colds, Army Doctor Shen has gone to the military doctor's tent with Su Su every day and asked her to write down other medicinal herbs.
Su Su is very smart and is afraid of being burned as a monster, so he only wrote down twenty kinds of plants that are common here. However, Dr. Shen and Fan Qianhu are still very happy. The Chinese New Year will be tomorrow, so I got it for them. Meat.
"Fan Qianhu and Army Doctor Shen are so generous to give you meat again." Qin Laoliu persuaded Grandpa Qin: "Fifth brother, let's not go to Northeast Prefecture to settle down. If we follow Fan Qianhu, we might be able to get rich. .”
Haha, Qin Xiaomi laughed: "Not only can you become rich, but you can also be quartered by five horses."
Grandpa Qin glared at Qin Laoliu: "Shut up now, if you dare to talk nonsense again, be careful I will cut you!"
He added: "They are the soldiers of King Wuxing. If King Wuxing's affairs fail, they will be what Xiaomi said... We are ordinary people. It is our ancestors who have blessed us with a place to settle down. Don't get involved with too many big shots." "What happened?"
"Is it so miserable?" Qin Laoliu exclaimed again: "Fifth brother, will we be involved if we are so close to Fan Qianhu and the others?" Even beheading?"
Grandpa Qin shook his head: "No, we are victims of the disaster, and the resettlement of the victims was done jointly by Marquis Wenchang and King Wuxing. Xing Wang is beneficial and can help the court win over the people, so the emperor will not blame us. "
The court cannot kill all the victims who have been resettled.
"As long as it doesn't implicate us." Qin Laoliu was afraid and stopped following Fan Qianhu and the others.
The next day, New Year's Eve, the women of Qin Jiang, Xu Qiao's family got up early, cooked a big pot of pig-killing vegetables, and celebrated the New Year happily.
Other victims are not as capable as Qin Xiaomi, and they have to go to the wild to find food on New Year's Eve.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, we officially entered the 22nd year of Ningkang, and this day was also Jiang Dalang’s fifteenth birthday. Grandpa Qin paid great attention to it and took out the memorial tablets of everyone in the Jiang family so that Jiang Dalang could pay homage to the Jiang family. Grandma Qin also gave him a bowl of pig-killing vegetables that she had reserved specially: "Eat up, uncle. From today on, you are an adult. You must take good care of yourself before you can shoulder the burden of supporting the family."
Jiang Dalang took the opportunity to look at Qin Xiaomi and swore: "Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin, don't worry, I will definitely stand up for the family, work hard to make money to support the family, and let Xiaomi live a good life."
Qin Xiaomi: "No, I will make money so that I can live a good life."
However, her words were ignored by Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin. The two looked at Jiang Dalang with relief and said: "Okay, okay, with your words, we can rest assured."
Qin Xiaomi: "..."
It seems that her marriage is a bit difficult to withdraw from.
But she is not worried at all...men all love new beauties. When she makes money, she will buy a few beauties to seduce Jiang Dalang. When he is tempted, she will break off the engagement with him. Keep his grateful response.
It's a pity that Jiang Dalang is Sheng Ting's soul, and Sheng Ting's long-cherished wish in this life is to marry her and have children and live a happy life. She wants to get rid of him unless he dies!
On the second day of the lunar new year, the familiar sound of gongs sounded again: "The time is up, gather quickly and set off!"
Qin Xiaomi and the others packed up their things to gather, and followed the victims to Northeast Prefecture. After a difficult journey, we finally arrived in Northeast China in late February of the lunar calendar.
The ice and snow melted, bright yellow grass emerged from the ground, and new spores appeared on the dead branches. The victims, who had been fleeing the famine for almost a year, finally saw life and cried with joy.
Kneel down again and kowtow in the direction of Zhongyuan Prefecture. Firstly, I say goodbye to my homeland, and secondly, I tell my ancestors: "Our children and grandchildren have finally found a way to survive!"
Grandpa Qin also led the big guys to kneel down, kowtowed three times in the direction of Zhongyuan Prefecture, and said: "Ancestors, please rest assured. If our children and grandchildren succeed in the future, they will definitely return to their hometown to worship their ancestors and comfort the ancestors of the Qin family. ”
Fan Qianhu was very touched when he saw it, but he couldn’t help it. Don't rush the victims: "Hurry up. The troops from the Northeastern Prefecture's Chief Envoy and the Capital Commander's Envoy are coming to pick you up."
This Wei Dynasty is very similar to the Ming Dynasty, so it also has a Chief Envoy There are also shadows of the Qin and Han dynasties in these yamen, such as the envoys and envoys.
"Jiang Dalang, Qin Xiaomi, come with me to see Master Qianhu." Song Xiaoqi came over and called Qin Xiaomi and the others, and took them to see Fan Qianhu.
"You have to walk your own way from now on. We will set off today to go back to help King Wuxing." Fan Qianhu gave them a bag of things: "Take it, it is the last step to cure wind and cold diseases." Thank you. But don’t use it now. You will use it after King Wuxing ascends the throne... Do you understand?”
What Qin Xiaomi understands is that you are still rebelling against thieves. If you use anti-thief things, you will be destroyed.
"We understand." Qin Xiaomi accepted the things and asked them to help find Qin Dadao, Qin Dadao, and Second Uncle Qin.
Fan Qianhu: "Don't worry, I will tell General Tang that if we find them, we will send a message to the Yamen here. You can just ask them every six months."
"Thank you, Mr. Qianhu. Please take care." Qin Xiaomi and Jiang Dalang bid farewell to Fan Qianhu and went back to join Grandpa Qin and the others.
An hour later, drums were beating loudly, and a large number of soldiers, government servants and people dressed as scribes entered the camp. It was the Northeast Prefecture Chief Envoy and the Capital Command Envoy who came to pick up the victims. .
"All the victims gathered quickly, and the heads of households prepared their household registration papers and waited for the allocation of resettlement places!"
