Chapter 40 Don’t think too much!
After hearing this, Chief Tamun's face turned red and he was furious, "We don't help the local people, we will grow old, sick and die ourselves. It used to be under the control of the court, but now it doesn't seem to matter."
"Yes, Brother Tian Xian, I have always admired you. What can you do?" Village Chief Zhang asked politely, unable to advance or retreat. What should he do in the future?
Chief Tamura scratched his head and said with a frown: "If I had a good idea, I wouldn't be in a hurry to pull my hair out here. There is a wolf in front of me and a tiger behind me. What should I do?"
Just now, Shen Yunxi and his old mother were discussing. They have not discussed this matter yet. Of course, they cannot talk freely to others. After all, this is the way of life. Of course, we must stay close first.
Village Chief Meng was very embarrassed. "When he came out, there were 200 people in Mengzhuang, but now there are only more than 100 people. His family was destroyed by natural disasters and bandits."
Brother Tian, I guess people in the south will not let us fleeing famine go south. Maybe it’s because the officials above are fighting. We fleeing famine are cheap and no one cares.
There are also bandits behind us. We only have about a hundred people, which is not enough to make the bandits, ordinary people and businessmen grit their teeth. I think if we settle here, our three villages will be merged together, and eventually we will have More people, more power.”
Village Chief Zhang was distraught and had tears in his eyes.
Now I can't move forward or retreat, so I want to find a hiding place by the Qingmei River. The climate here is similar to that in the south. Even if we open up wasteland here, we can survive. I don't know if Brother Tian has Such thoughts?
If so, let us put aside our past grievances and unite to find a place to live. After all, there are not many people left and we cannot take any more risks."
Village Chief Tian and Shen Yunxi were stunned. They remembered the thoughts of Village Chief Zhang and Village Chief Meng.
There are more than 100 men, women, old and young in Qianlihua Village, while Mengzhuang only has a few hundred people. The largest population is Houlihua Village.
"Why don't you go back and find a place to settle down first? I think the weather is a bit cloudy and it may rain. If you don't prepare in time, adults and children may get caught in the rain." Chief Tamura did not immediately answer the question. , but chose to consider it.
After all, it is important to discuss with the villagers, especially the capable Shen Yunxi.
Village Chief Zhang is very worried and wants to make a decision as soon as possible.
After Village Chief Zhang finished speaking, he looked at Shen Yunxi who was standing next to him.
Shen Yunxi was stunned and pointed at himself.
After hearing this, Village Chief Zhang waved his hand: "Daughter-in-law Youqing, don't think too much. If you kill people in our village, I will really feel uncomfortable.
But the Zhang family and their sons sometimes stole things from their village, which annoyed them. Just because they were young and strong and could do something else on the way to escape famine, they acquiesced.
You should avenge their evil deeds. I promise you, if we merge together, some people in Houlihua Village will be dissatisfied with you, and I will slap their mouths. However, I think they are scared to death, I don’t dare to trouble you at all.”
"It doesn't matter. This matter can't be solved now. We should also discuss it. You can also talk to the people in the village." Shen Yunxi did not immediately agree or refuse.
Village Chief Zhang and Village Chief Meng saw that Shen Yunxi did not refuse, and they also knew that this matter could not be solved overnight. There were more people who wanted to cross the river.
"Well, think about it." Village Chief Zhang replied that they had no money anyway, and even if they had, they couldn't leave their families behind.
But someone did it!
"In-laws, Youdong, please don't abandon me and my two daughters." Zheng Guizhen pulled her husband's sleeves, tears streaming down her face, her eyes desperate.
She was so tired from hunger that she kept crying all the way. Her eldest daughter-in-law had no son, which made her even more miserable. She worked with her two daughters who were only ten years old and had almost no time to rest.
When we cross the river now, our family only has ten taels of silver. My father-in-law, mother-in-law and sister-in-law took the boat with her husband and the family of four from the second room.
