Qian Miao's smiling face suddenly became frightened. She quickly shook her head and said, "We just have a little food, but we don't dare to waste it like this."
Qian Ergou said firmly: "How is this a waste? The prince said that only when people are full can they have the strength to work, and only when food is eaten in the stomach can it turn into strength!"
As soon as they heard what the prince said, Qian Dagou and Qian Miao didn't dare to refute.
"The prince also said that everyone's life will get better and better in the future. Everyone will have fields, big houses, and meat for every meal..."
Qian Dagou and Qian Miao were both stunned. They subconsciously thought of the scene described by Qian Ergou, but... will that day really come?
For people in this era, eating two meals a day is a luxury.
The harvest in a year is so much, and taxes have to be paid, so there is really not much left.
After the autumn harvest, we have to wait until the next autumn harvest. If we don’t save some food, what will happen if there is a natural disaster?
While Qian Dagou and Qian Miao were both eating, there was a loud and noisy sound outside the house.
"Big dog, second dog..."
This voice was very familiar to both brothers. Isn't it the voice of Mr. Qian?
Qian Dagou and Qian Ergou got up quickly and saw that a large group of people from Qianjiazhuang had gathered outside the house.
They cautiously looked into the house with sly smiles on their faces.
Qian Ergou looked at Old Village Chief Qian, supported his eldest brother and asked, "Village Chief, do you have anything to do with us?"
Village Elder Qian's face was criss-crossed with ridges, and his skin had long been tanned. At this moment, he rubbed his rough and calloused palms and said, "Will you come back to the village with us?"
Behind Village Chief Qian, all the villagers in Qianjiazhuang looked at Qian Ergou and his family with hopeful eyes.
Qian Dagou was stunned. Just a few days ago, they were ruthlessly driven out of Qianjiazhuang, and now the village chief personally brought people to take them home?
Mrs. Qian Miao was a little excited. They are all very traditional people, and they all have a deep nostalgia for their hometown where they are used to living.
If possible, they would not want to leave their hometown, even if Longmen Village and Qianjiazhuang are next to each other.
"Village chief, we..."
"We're not going back!" Qian Ergou said the words before his eldest brother could speak.
Qian Dagou and Qian Miao both looked at their younger brother in surprise. After hearing his words, they stopped talking.
A home only needs one voice.
Since the younger brother has decided not to go back, then everyone will not go back.
The people who came with Old Village Chief Qian immediately became anxious after hearing Qian Ergou's unhesitating refusal.
"Er Gou, your elder brother hasn't spoken yet."
"That's right. Children shouldn't interrupt when adults are talking."
"Big dog, we are all here to take you back. Qianjiazhuang is your home."
Qian Ergou looked at these former neighbors and couldn't help but sneer. He didn't believe that these people would be so nice to take his family back. They must have evil intentions.
Qian Dagou was a little reluctant to forgive the favor, and he didn't want to offend the village chief's face, so he said: "Village Chief, you can go back..."
"Big Dog, the village chief has personally come to take you home, what do you want?"
Hearing this, Qian Ergou became angry, pointed at Qian Ergou and said, "What? Are you trying to blame us now?"
Qian Er was unconvinced and said: "We are telling the truth. Who deserves such treatment? You are called ignorant of good and evil."
"Who do you think is ignorant of good and evil?"
Hearing this familiar voice, Qian Ergou and others looked over in surprise.
At the end of this road, a handsome young man whose skin color had turned into wheat color was coming.
Behind him were Long Jia'an, the village chief of Longmen Village, and others, as well as Li Bin, the commander of You Wangwei.
When Qianjiazhuang Village Chief Qian and others saw the people approaching, their expressions became even more unnatural.
Both Qian Dagou and Qian Miao had met Li Zhao. When they saw Li Zhao coming with someone, their faces suddenly showed surprise.
"Your Majesty!"
Li Zhao smiled and nodded at him: "How is it? Is your leg feeling better?"
Seeing Li Zhao interacting with him like an ordinary person, Qian Dagou and Qian Miao were flattered, and felt even more grateful.
Qian Dagou nodded quickly and said: "If it weren't for the prince... I might have lost this leg. The prince is so kind and kind..."
Li Zhao shook his head with a smile and said, "This is not a big favor, so you don't need to take it too seriously."
Li Zhao casually glanced at the people in Qianjiazhuang, and finally his eyes fell on Qian Ergou, saying: "Ergou, what's going on? Is your family in debt?"
When Qian Ergou heard this, he immediately became anxious: "My lord, please don't accuse me wrongly. I never owe them anything."
Everyone in Qianjiazhuang was even more embarrassed.
"Oh?" Li Zhao showed an interested look and said, "Then what is this?"
"A few days ago, weren't everyone spreading rumors that Your Majesty is about to be finished? Isn't this...some people are afraid of being implicated by You, Your Majesty, and we won't say anything if they don't work for you. You said that everyone They all have their own choices, but they are afraid that if I work for you, the entire Qianjiazhuang will be affected. If I don’t give up working, my family will get out of Qianjiazhuang!"
Qian Ergou looked at everyone in Qianjiazhuang with sarcasm and hatred in his eyes and said, "Today, they suddenly wanted to take my eldest brother and sister-in-law back. I always feel that they have no good intentions."
"I rejected them just now, and they actually said I was ignorant."
Hearing this, Li Zhao looked at Village Chief Qian and said, "Does Qianjiazhuang sincerely want to take them back?"
After hearing Li Zhao's question, everyone in Qianjiazhuang immediately showed joy on their faces.
Qian Er immediately rushed to answer: "Go back to your lord, we really want to take them back sincerely."
Qian Ergou was a little anxious, but his elder brother stopped him and signaled him not to be so impetuous in front of the prince.
"Oh? You mean it sincerely." Li Zhao said with a look of realization: "Who suggested that Qian Dagou and Qian Ergou and their family be driven out of Qianjiazhuang?"
"This..." Qian Er's face showed embarrassment.
"My request is simple. Whoever rushed me in the first place should ask him to come and beg." Li Zhao reminded with a smile: "Remember, I am kneeling here to beg."
Qian Erluzi and everyone else were stunned and looked at Li Zhao blankly.
Village Chief Qian's old face turned red from suppressing his emotions. He finally knew why he felt uneasy when he kicked Qian Dagou and his family out before.
"Two dogs."
"I am here!"
"If they want to ask you to go back, they must kneel down and beg. Whether you agree or not depends on you and your elder brother!" Li Zhao patted his shoulder and said.
"Yes!" Qian Ergou looked happy when he heard this.
Everyone in Qianjiazhuang looked struggling and complicated.
Li Zhao and Long Jia'an were eating melon aside, hoping to watch a good show.
Everyone in King You's Guard sneered, looking at everyone in Qianjiazhuang without any warmth in their eyes.
"What? Didn't you say you were sincere? Kowtow!" Li Bin shouted when he saw that everyone in Qianjiazhuang was embarrassed and didn't move.
