Chapter 38

38.Following, do not know what is good and what is bad

Shen Qian and Lu Jiu didn't stay in the teahouse for too long. They only ate a few pieces of snacks, so they wrapped them up and took them away.

The two of them must seize the time to go shopping. Once more people come to escape, there will definitely be chaos. Not only will it be inconvenient to come to the county, but the semi-monthly market may also be stopped. In the next few months, the salt that the family will need to eat will be three times. The cotton and fabric for winter clothes, as well as other odds and ends, must be prepared now.

The two of them went to Carpenter Zhou's place first. They had been cooperating for so long. Regardless of whether Carpenter Zhou already knew the news or not, Shen Qian felt that he should inform him. It wouldn't take much time anyway.

After that, it was time to buy things. I just stocked up on salt to last until next year. Shen Qian also bought several kilograms of candy. There were so many things that the basket he brought couldn't fit in, so he bought a large backpack.

Fortunately, both of them planned to return to the county town to prepare some winter items, bringing hundreds of copper plates and two taels of silver.

Finally, I went to the bookstore and bought two knives of paper, leaving only dozens of copper coins in my hand.

At this time, the sun was already in the west, and it would take an hour to walk back. There were a lot of things to buy. Shen Qian and Lu Jiu didn't have the money to eat, so they ordered two bowls of noodles at a noodle shop far away from the city gate. They left the city after they were full. .

The autumn afternoon sunshine gave off a lazy atmosphere, and the yamen guarding the city gate was basked in the sun bit by bit, and he continued to doze off.

The group of beggars in the corner of the city wall has lost a few people, leaving only a few elderly people and their children leaning together to bask in the sun.

Shen Qian only glanced at it, then withdrew his gaze, and walked forward side by side with Lu Jiu. The two of them did not speak, and both looked a little solemn.

After walking for about two-quarters of an hour, the road became narrower and narrower, and the mountains and forests on both sides became deeper and deeper. Walking further half a mile, you turned a corner and there was a fork in the road. One side led to other villages, and the other side led to Qingping Village.

Shen Qian and Lu Jiu looked at each other and stopped at the same time.

"Do you want to follow again?" Shen Qian asked in a deep voice.

There was no one in front or behind the road, and it was quiet, as if everything was Shen Qian's illusion, but he and Lu Jiu stood like that. For a long time, there was a small rustling sound in the forest, and then several young figures emerged from the woods. Get out of it.

The clothes these people were wearing were in tatters, their faces and heads were full of dirt, their cheeks were deeply or shallowly sunken, and the hands holding the sticks were also skinny, but the gazes they looked at Shen Qian and Lu Jiu But it is unabashed greed.

The leader's eyes swept over Lu Jiu and landed on the full basket carried by Shen Qian. He licked his lips and said, "We just want to have a full meal and don't want to hurt anyone."

Lu Jiu snorted lightly. He had good ears. Not long after he came out of the county town, he noticed that there was a little tail behind him. The reason why he waited until now to find out was because he didn't want to have a conflict where the yamen could rush over immediately. If he was hit by someone, He went to the county office and called the government officials. He and his husband had to go to the county government office, and he didn't want to waste this time.
