Just when everyone was sad, they suddenly heard an extremely sudden sound.
"I plan to go back and not go to Luyang Mansion!"
After he said this, he hunched his back and walked back.
The people who ran out with him saw this and strode forward, reaching out to hold him.
"Er Zhu, are you crazy? It's not like you haven't seen the situation in Liuyun County now. You said it would be easy to go back. Tell me, how are you going to go back like this? The district chief told us the situation a long time ago Yes, we have come this far now..."
Wang Erzhu didn't say anything, he just broke away from the held arm and continued walking back.
When they arrived at the cave and found Li Qinghua, they saw that his wife and children were here, so he said directly: "Chief, I want to take my family back to Liuyun County with Zhang Captou and the others."
His words were like water dripping from a pan of oil, exploding all at once.
Not to mention what others think, even his daughter who married to Lijia'ao cannot accept it.
"Dad, what are you talking about? Go back? How are you going to go back when things are like this outside?"
Wang Erzhu's two sons also protested: "Dad, are you confused? With things like this outside, what can we do when we go back? All our food rations were washed away yesterday."
Wang Erzhu looked at his son, daughter-in-law, and old wife with a firm face, "Liuyun County is our roots. We should not avoid it if we are in trouble right now. It's good that our cart was washed away, but didn't the chief say he would supply us?" I don’t want any money, and it’s useless to come in this situation. All I need is food rations, quilts to keep out the cold, etc. There are many people in Lijia’ao, so if we all work together, we can make up for what we owe.”
As soon as he said these words, the minds of those who were reluctant to leave but had to follow him began to wander.
"Since Brother Erzhu is going back, I'll go back too. Our supplies haven't been washed away, but what Yuan Niang sent away before, I wonder if they can be evenly returned to us now? I don't want them either. Yes, we only need sweet potatoes. When the flood recedes, we will plant sweet potatoes to fill our stomachs. I don’t want to die in a foreign country in the future, and even if I die, I will die in Liuyun County.”
"Then I'll go back too! The scholar lady seems to have a lot of rations, so let's take care of her first. When they get to Linfeng County and get the supplies, we can ask her to send them back to Liuyun County to us."
Li Qinghua and the other elders of the Li clan who came over after hearing the sound almost laughed angrily when they heard two or three people saying such things, and there were actually members of the Li clan among them.
I saw Old Man Li looking seriously at the few people gathered together, and asked: "Are you really sure you want to go back? You know, life may not be easy this time, and there is no place to accommodate you."
Wang Erzhu and others looked at each other, and then Wang Erzhu was the representative.
His eyes were particularly firm: "Sure! We have food rations, warm clothes, and the tarpaulin we prepared before. As long as we can find Mr. Xu, we will have a place to stay. Besides, people in the county are in a hurry Those who left under the epidemic must not be well prepared. We will go back with rations, and I believe Master Xu will be willing to accept us..."
When Li Qinghua heard his naive words, no, he had ulterior motives, he closed his eyes and then looked at the Li clan members.
"Are you sure? Even if you leave this time, it means leaving our Li family. From now on, you will have to leave if you have nothing to do with us anymore?"
This time, two heads of the Li clan expressed their intention to go back. Even though their wives, sons and daughters disagreed, they still insisted.
Now that they heard Li Qinghua's words about ending the clan, they were a little hesitant.
After thinking about it for a while, he still said: "Chief, Liuyun County is in trouble now. We shouldn't be so selfish and leave. We have food rations and so many sweet potatoes. If we take them back, we can save many people. Although it rains heavily now, The county town is flooded again, and we can't go back. But can't we live here forever? When the rain subsides, we can think of a way. Besides, we all brought wood knives and other things, so we can cut down trees and make boats... …”
Li Qinghua laughed angrily: "You are really great and capable! We in Lijia'ao only planted sweet potatoes once. Apart from the ones we paid taxes, the rest was only enough for us to eat for next summer's harvest. You said we should take out these rations Save people, tell me, do you know how many people are still alive in the county? How many rations do they need to eat a day? How long can we feed them for? If we run out of food, what do you think we should do next? And build boats , How come I don’t know, when did you master this craft? Okay, you can leave if you want, but the requirements are not those you put forward, it is up to us."
As he spoke, he turned to look at Li Ligui: "Guizi, go and ask Yuan Niang to come over."
At this time, Li Yuan was counting her supplies in the large granary in space. When she noticed that the situation in the field had changed, she hurried out.
I saw two pieces of land that were originally growing well, but now they are inexplicably dry.
Her heart skipped a beat, knowing that something was wrong with her clan members.
When she came out of the space, before she could speak to Wang Can, Li Ligui's voice came from outside the carriage.
"Mother Yuan, someone is making a fuss about returning to Liuyun County. My father asked you to go there."
Wang Can is making egg pancakes, and she wants to make more while the temperature is not high and can be easily stored.
When I suddenly heard this, my hand shook and I rubbed it directly against the edge of the hot pot.
She gasped in pain, and when Li Yuan heard the movement and looked over, she immediately released the spiritual spring water and soaked her hands in it.
"Sister, you and Brother Guizi go and see what's going on. I won't be in the way."
"Okay, please pay more attention to yourself. I'll be back as soon as I go."
"Um!"
When Li Yuan and Li Ligui arrived at the largest cave, there was a commotion inside.
Li Ligui walked beside her and said softly: "The people who are making a fuss now are the family members of those people. They don't want to go back. It's just that those few are the heads of the family. They are used to talking about everything at home, and they are afraid that their arms will not be able to twist their thighs in the end. "
"Well, let me check the situation first."
Li Yuan said as she walked into the greenhouse outside the largest cave.
When the people in the cave saw her, some of them were the first to speak: "Miss Yuan, don't listen to my father. He is an old fool, and that's why he talks nonsense."
"Yuan Niang, you're here just in time to help my sister-in-law persuade your brother Wangcai. If he wants to go back, he can go back. What's the point of taking us back?"
"Wisdom scholar, we plan to go back and share the joys and sorrows with Liuyun County. I wonder if you can return the rations you helped us transport now? Also, if not now, when you get to Liufeng County and get the supplies, Can you send it to us?"
"Yes! Scholar lady, we don't want anything. Just convert it into sweet potatoes and give it to us."
