The Jiang family soon discovered something strange behind them.
Several men were holding sticks, with a look of death on their faces, staring at the men coming with knives, with bloodlust in their eyes.
Even if they die, they must protect the women and children behind them!
A group of people with fierce looks were pressing closer and closer to the Jiang family.
Unexpectedly.
"Click"
A heavy wooden door sounded.
The city gate behind the Jiang family was slowly opened.
A group of soldiers in armor poured out of the city.
The moment the wooden door rang, a group of fierce-looking people hurriedly ran into the crowd and hid.
After the soldiers came out, when they first saw few people in front of the door, they felt a little dazed for a moment.
Then he smelled the smell of blood in the air and muffled crying, and he instantly became alert.
A soldier passed by the Jiang family and immediately vomited after seeing the scene in front of him.
Then several more soldiers who did not believe in evil came. After seeing the scene in front of them, they all vomited out.
The soldiers quickly entered the city and reported what happened outside.
The results are also expected.
No one pursued the matter at all, but instead assigned refugees to bury the bodies on the spot.
After the official's words, some relatives of the deceased started to cry loudly.
After sorting out all this, the city gate was opened again.
This time, we only had half an hour to enter the city.
The Jiang family was first in line. As soon as the city gate opened, the Jiang family dragged their cart forward.
A group of soldiers stood on each side of the city gate, led by a man about thirty years old.
There was a murderous aura all over his body, and his cold eyes scanned the person in front of him.
After looking at the allowance handed over by the Jiang family, he still asked.
"Going to the capital? What are you doing in the capital?"
"Returning to the official, we are going to the capital to find relatives!" Mrs. Jiang quickly replied.
After the official looked at it carefully and determined that there was no problem, he said again: "Okay, your family has a large population, and you can enter the customs with only ten taels of silver."
Twelve?
As soon as the price came out, the entire Jiang family trembled.
Obviously, the information I inquired about two days ago was only two taels of silver, and the number of people was only five taels!
How has it changed?
Before Mrs. Jiang could make up her mind, Ms. Xu, who was standing behind her, couldn't help but muttered: "Isn't this a money grab?"
Jiang Laosan, who was close, wanted to block Xu's mouth, but was still a step too slow.
These words happened to be heard by the official standing in front.
The other party's face instantly darkened, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes, "If you don't want to live, just get out! Don't delay others' living!"
As soon as he finished speaking, someone echoed.
"That's right, if you don't want to pass, hurry up and get out, don't delay our entry!"
"Let's go, let's go! If you still want to enter the customs without money, who knows what you want to do!"
"Come on, don't delay us!"
Impatient voices came and went.
Old Mrs. Jiang's face turned pale in an instant. She glared at Mr. Xu with a sullen face, quickly put on a flattering smile, and hurriedly took out ten taels of silver and handed it to the official.
"Master, let's enter the customs! Enter the customs! The money is here."
As Mrs. Jiang said, she stretched out the money.
Unexpectedly, the official didn't reach out to take it, and he didn't even look at it.
"It's too late, now it costs fifteen taels of silver!"
Another five taels were temporarily added!
At this moment, the entire Jiang family turned pale and glared at Ms. Xu fiercely.
If Mrs. Xu hadn't been a bitch, she wouldn't have caused this!
Jiang Laosan was afraid that Mrs. Xu would say something unpleasant again, so he kept covering Mrs. Xu's mouth with his hand.
Perhaps after Mrs. Xu noticed that the Jiang family's eyes were unfriendly, she rarely calmed down for a while.
Old Mrs. Jiang had no choice but to take out five taels of silver again and work hard for the official, just to get into the customs.
Fortunately, this time the official glanced at Old Mrs. Jiang, then motioned to the soldiers behind him to collect the money and handed the Jiang family a note to enter the customs.
When the Jiang family got the notice, they didn't dare to delay for even a moment, and the whole family hurriedly entered the city gate.
Jiang Yunjin felt uncomfortable being suffocated. When Mrs. Jiang's attention was not on her, she showed her white and tender face and took a small breath of fresh air.
His dark eyes turned around and happened to meet the official's gaze.
In an instant, she showed her white teeth and smiled kindly at the official.
Fortunately, I only used money to spend it.
The officer inadvertently raised his head and met his gaze. After seeing a white and tender dumpling, he was about to look away when he suddenly saw the smile blooming on the dumpling.
Soft and cute.
There is still a bit of familiarity.
Before the official could take a closer look, Xiaotuanzi walked away with his family.
He shook his head, feeling a little ridiculous.
How could it be that one...
When the Jiang family entered the city gate, they did not see the big city they imagined.
It's a small town at best, with refugees occupying every corner.
After some refugees entered the city gate, they no longer continued to flee here and there, but settled down and became beggars.
When the Jiang family saw this scene before them, they did not dare to stay for a moment.
At present, there are many refugees coming in, but very few are leaving.
One day, it will become unsafe here too.
After leaving the small town, the Jiang family found a secluded place to rest.
Boss Jiang took Laosi Jiang carefully back to the town, intending to buy some food.
As soon as the person left, Mrs. Jiang's face suddenly fell. Her cloudy eyes were filled with frost, and the look she looked at Mrs. Xu was extremely cold.
"Ms. Xu, kneel down!" Mrs. Jiang said sternly.
"Plop" sound.
Mrs. Xu hurriedly knelt down, with a pale face, and started to show her misery to Mrs. Jiang.
"Mom, my daughter-in-law didn't mean to talk too much! It's obvious that they are extorting money!"
While crying, Mrs. Xu crawled to Mrs. Jiang on her knees, hugged her thighs and began to cry.
In the end, she didn't even realize she was wrong.
When Mrs. Jiang heard this, she became even more angry.
He stood up suddenly and kicked Mr. Xu in the heart. Without any mercy, he began to scold her in front of the juniors.
"You, Mrs. Xu, are you really amazing, do you dare to reprimand even the officials? Even if they extort money, you have to give it to them obediently! If you hadn't been so talkative today, we wouldn't have spent so much money!
I tell you Xu! The extra money will come from your third bedroom. It was originally ten taels of silver, and each room was divided into two taels of silver. The extra five taels of silver would be taken out of the third room. I would be given seven taels of silver later, and it wouldn’t matter if I lost a penny! "
Old Mrs. Jiang was furious. If Mrs. Xu hadn't been so talkative, she wouldn't have spent the extra five taels of silver.
Fortunately, they asked for more money. If the other party made it clear that they would not be allowed in, what would happen to their family?
When she thought of this, Mrs. Jiang looked at Mrs. Xu with a cold look in her eyes.
In my heart, I also regretted that Xu entered the house.
She looked up at the blue sky, lowering her eyes to cover the frost in her eyes. When she looked at Xu again, her eyes became indifferent, as if looking at a stranger.
"The biggest mistake I did in my life was to insist on welcoming you in. It was my fault! A good wife has been prosperous for three generations, but you, the star of the family, almost killed my Jiang family today! Can the Jiang family stay? Stay with you.
Third child, give her a letter of divorce and let her take care of herself. "
