"Hey, the little lady is so pretty, come on! Come here and let me take a good look, hahahahahaha."

The man jumped to the woman's side and circled around her frivolously.

The woman was trembling under his gaze, and the tears in her eyes were like broken beads, falling silently in despair.

Suddenly, the arrogant man stretched out his hand and clamped the woman's chin, forcing her to raise her hands to look at him. Seeing her desperate face clearly at this moment, the man licked his canine teeth, his smiling eyes full of greed and teasing.

"Tsk, tsk, look at your pitiful look, it really hurts my heart, second brother! Why are you still standing there, tie this little lady to the car, brother, I will take you to eat meat today! "

The woman was so weak that she couldn't struggle at all. She resisted for a few times and was carried on someone's shoulders. She stretched out her hand and called for help to the people not far away. However, those people lowered their heads silently when they saw her being kidnapped. I couldn't stand it but couldn't do anything. I slowly turned around and left, unable to bear to look at it anymore.

Wen Yu watched Yang Zhao carrying the woman towards the cart, and followed him in a daze, picking up the woman's child and chasing after him. The woman was already so hungry that she didn't have much strength, so she resisted a few times and was confused. Was passed out.

After putting the woman in the car, Wen Yu followed Yang Zhao with the child in his arms. He subconsciously looked at Yang Zhao's face. It was obvious that he had a solemn face, as if a storm was about to come, but he opened his mouth. But he said something else.

"Hahahahaha, I really went out to pick up gold today. I have to enjoy it when I get back."

After walking for a while, Wen Yu looked back and saw that the people who were hiding behind the slope now came out and sat on the road. On the other side, some walked away from them and went against them.

No one noticed anything was wrong, and no one came after him. Wen Yu couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. He took out some water and fed it to the baby in his arms.

Yang Zhao glanced sideways at the woman on the cart behind him, then turned to Wen Yu and said, "Go wake up the person on the cart and ask her to find a way to feed the child some sugar cookies, otherwise the girl may not survive us." Go back to the village. "

Fortunately, the woman was only weak and she was too excited and fainted. Wen Yu patted her face and she woke up. Looking at the slowly moving sky, the woman was obviously stunned. .

After seeing Wen Yu's face clearly, his eyes were full of fear and uneasiness.

"Don't be afraid, we are not bad people. The reason why we said that just now is just for you. I have sugar cookies here. Feed some to the child first."

People who are crazy about hunger will forget everything else when they see food. She held the child in her arms and squeezed out the sugar paste from the sugar cake and fed it to the child's mouth. Wen Yu slowly walked beside the car and watched, handing her the bamboo tube.

"Drink some water with her and go down."

The little girl was too hungry to swallow. The sugar dissolved when it met the water and flowed down her throat into her stomach.

After giving the child the sweets, the woman wolfed down half of the remaining dry flour pancakes. She resisted the urge to eat them all and left half for the child in her arms.

Understanding what she meant, Wen Yu sighed, "You can eat the noodles. She is so weak that she probably won't be able to eat anything. We will get home soon and cook some rice porridge for her."

Although the woman was grateful to Wen Yu and the others, But when he thought of the reason why they caught him, there was a bit of resentment in his eyes.

Wen Yu knew that nothing he could say at this moment would work, he could only use actions to prove that he and Yang Zhao were good people.

But I have to say that what Yang Zhao said just now... really didn't look like an act. For a moment, he almost believed it. For a moment, Wen Yu felt that it was a pity that Yang Zhao was not a bandit.

After walking around a hill, the two finally saw the head of Huailiu Village. The village chief stood there not knowing what to say to anyone, looking in a good mood.

Yang Zhaodiao led the people towards the village chief.

"Hey? Yang Zhao is back? Are you satisfied with those cloth shoes, Mr. Du?"

Yang Zhao nodded solemnly, "Uncle Changshan, I have something to tell you. Let's go to your house first." Not far from the village head.

The village chief and the villagers standing at the head of the village also saw the woman on the cart, and their expressions became solemn.

Wen Yu picked up the money bag and said, "Then I'll go back first and ask Uncle Zhang to go to the village chief's house to help them take a look."

"Okay, be careful on your way back."

The man dragged everyone and the goods on the car to the village. The elders and villagers who had something good to do also followed to watch the excitement.

"Erlang, what are you doing?"

The village chief pointed at the woman and the child on the cart.

"I don't know what their specific situation is. I went to town today and when I came back, I met a group of refugees not far from our village. This woman came to beg. The child in her arms was starving to death. , so my husband and I used a trick to kidnap her back, and then we got rid of the refugees."

When the people who came to join in the fun heard that there were refugees around the village, their expressions were not good. Everyone knew that if the refugees arrived in their village. Here, he can do anything from stealing to killing and plundering.

The village chief also knew the seriousness of this matter and frowned at the two women.

"Whoever has ready-made porridge, give them two bowls, let them finish it and tell them in detail. This is related to the safety of our whole village, everyone should unite."

If it were placed half a month ago, some people might still be reluctant to part with two bowls. Porridge, but now that life is booming, one can earn more than one hundred yuan a month, and no one would be willing to part with two bowls of porridge.

"I have it at home. I just made it at noon. It should still be warm now."

A fat aunt turned and left. The village chief looked at the people gathered outside and called two people to inform the village chief and the heads of each family. .

"Come here, everyone. We have to have a meeting this afternoon to talk about what to do about this matter now."

The people around also went home and called their bosses. The fat aunt also came back with two bowls of porridge. The woman didn't care. Regardless, she devoured a bowl of food. The fat aunt saw that she was eating in a hurry and was afraid that she would choke.

Seeing that the child was unconscious, he kindly took her over and fed her into her mouth bit by bit with a spoon.

People who were close to the village chief rushed over, and their expressions turned ugly when they heard that there were refugees around.

Seeing that there were still many people who had not come over, Yang Zhao suggested going back first and coming back later.

"I want to unload the goods from the car and come here."

The village chief waved his hand to let him go. Yang Zhao took the woman off the car and placed her in the main room of the village chief's house.

On the way back, I happened to bump into Wen Yu walking towards here with Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang.

"How's Erlang doing? Are there any refugees around? I heard Yu'er say a few words, and my heart arose."

Yang Zhao dragged the car and took two steps forward. "Probably, you should go to the village chief's house first. I'll put down my things and go there."

When Wen Yu arrived with the people, the fat aunt had already fed the child half a bowl. of porridge, Uncle Zhang stepped forward to check it and breathed a sigh of relief.

"I just fainted from hunger, but I should be awake now. I'm just too weak and may have reacted lightly." As

he said this, Aunt Zhang and Fat Aunt both saw the child's eyelashes trembling a few times. The woman heard that the child When he woke up, he got up and went to check on the child.

"Little sister, little sister, wake up, I am sister."

Wen Yu stared at the woman with wide eyes after hearing this. Wasn't it mother and daughter before?

The girl obviously heard the woman's call, and her eyelashes trembled even more, but she couldn't open her eyes and wake up.

Uncle Zhang asked Aunt Zhang to hug the woman, "Don't be too excited. This child is weak. She just ate something and became conscious. Now she is too weak and needs to rest. It will be detrimental to her."

The woman was pulled aside by Aunt Zhang. , I had just eaten, and I still couldn't keep up with my physical strength. I sat quietly and looked at my sister lying beside me.

The village chief kicked the charcoal basin towards the girl, and the village chief's wife also found a quilt to cover the child.

After waiting for another stick of incense, the village chief's house was full of people, all of whom were waiting for the next meeting with solemn faces. Yang Zhao also came over panting, holding a snack box in his hand. The crowd in the main room Here, he found his husband sitting next to Aunt Zhang.

"Yu'er, eat some cushion first."

A bowl of fresh, tender and smooth egg custard fell into Wen Yu's hands. Perhaps he was worried that it would be too hot, so there was a layer of towel placed at the bottom of the bowl.

People around him looked over, and Wen Yu's cheeks turned red, indicating that he was eating or not eating.

"Eat quickly, I'm afraid Erlang came here on the run for this custard."

After hearing Aunt Zhang's words, he glanced sideways at the man sitting next to him. In the cold weather, the man's face was flushed, and there was something on the tip of his nose. The tiny beads of sweat were obviously coming from running.

Bearing the gazes of the people around him, Wen Yu quickly ate half the bowl with a blushing face, and stuffed the remaining half into Yang Zhao's hand.

"I can't eat it anymore."

He himself may not have noticed the coquettishness in his tone, which caused everyone around him to look at her with uncontrollable laughter, and the man also smiled proudly.

"Why do you only eat so little?"

"I ate sugar cookies on the way back. I'm not hungry now. I really can't eat anymore."

The village chief also looked here and realized that everyone was here. He recovered and coughed. A sound.

"I called everyone here today because I want to talk about the safety of our village. You have all seen this woman. I also know the specific situation. She may be a refugee. I will ask you in front of everyone today."

Yang Zhao saw that Wen Yu really didn't want to After eating, he finished half the bowl of custard in three mouthfuls and began to look at the village chief and the woman seriously. "I am the mayor of this village. We have no ill intentions. We just want to know which

village you are from, why you are begging for food outside our village, and who are the other people hiding not far away?"

After eating porridge and rice for a while, the woman also understood the intentions of these people, so she was not very repelled by being interrogated now.

"I'm from Xiliang Village."

The woman's words made everyone around her take a breath of air. Xiliang Village was not close to them, and it was less than a thousand miles away from the Liao people.

"There was a heavy snowfall two years ago, which covered the whole village. Fortunately, most of the villagers ran out. The village chief reported the matter to the government. Who knew that the government didn't care whether we lived or died. Later, many people got cold. I don't know. Why did the rumors of the plague spread? When the government learned about it, they sent people to burn all the living people in the dark. My family died in that incident. They pushed me and my little sister out desperately. "

Speaking of this, The woman burst into tears, and the villagers around her shuddered as she heard her spiteful voice.

People couldn't help but think of the disaster that happened to them years ago. If no one had supported them at that time, if they had reported to the government at that time and expected the court to save them, the result might have been the same as in Xiliang Village.

Some villagers couldn't help but ask: "Then the people you were with before were also your villagers?"

The woman shook her head, "A few of them ran away from our village, but after all, there were officials guarding them. Apart from us sisters, the ones who ran away No more than five people came out, and the rest were refugees they met on the road. Their village was also hit by the disaster. The government not only ignored them, but also forced them to go to the city to seek refuge with relatives and friends, and they wandered around the mountain villages in order to survive.

" At this point, the woman suddenly knelt down and said, "I beg you to take in my little girl and sister. I know the plans of those refugees. They want to slaughter the village and take it for themselves. As long as you agree to take us in, I will tell you the truth. "
