Chapter 109 Panic

The arrival of the Hongying Army cast a shadow over the joy of moving to a new home.

Is this a signal that the Hongying Army is coming?

The seven families gathered in the main room of the Lu family, sitting and standing and squatting, and there were people inside and outside the house.

"What if the Hongying Army comes now? The food in the fields has not been confiscated."

"Should we pack up our belongings and put them on the boat? If there is any news, we can set up the boat and go to the wild lake."

"Why are you panicking? Jiangjiaba is so big, can you really come to Happy Ridge?"

Everyone talked to each other, and some said to go out and hide first, and then come back when the food can be harvested.

Some said that since we can't harvest the food anyway and we can't be safe no matter where we hide, we might as well just stay at home.

In the panic, Grandma Chen calmed down first: "Both adults and children are not allowed to go to Jiangjiaba recently. Just stay at home and we will see what is going on."

Everyone was silent for a while. It was fine not to go to Jiangjiaba, but no one could guarantee whether the Hongying Army would come to Happy Ridge.

The adults felt a little heavy, but a few children were ignorant and did not know what the coming of the Hongying Army meant.

Li Cancan also secretly asked Dongzhi: "Uncle Zhang said that the Hongying Army is quite rich. A small backpack is not too expensive to sell for two hundred coins. It's great that they come. When they come, we will make more baskets to sell."

.”

The Winter Solstice man said, "Maybe my dad and your dad are afraid that our craftsmanship is not as good as Uncle Lu's, and all the money will be earned by his family."

"Don't talk nonsense."

Li Cancan glared at Dongzhi unhappily, "Uncle Lu is not that kind of person. My father and mother all praise him, so he must be a very good person. My mother has such a bad mouth, when did she say anything about others?

Good words."

As soon as Dongzhi opened her mouth to respond, she saw Li Cancan's mother, Ma Erya, slapped Li Cancan on the head: "What are you doing? Get out of here. Did you say that to your mother?"

"

Li Cancan and Dongzhi murmured quietly as they backed out of the house: "Look, my mother is cruel. I am her biological son. She doesn't even want to see me. If she treats me, Uncle Lu, so badly, maybe Lu

My uncle is my biological father."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li CanGuan turned around and saw Lu Xiaoyu standing by and glaring at him.

"Oh, you scared me to death. Why are you staring at me?"

Lu Xiaoyu didn't hear clearly what Li Cancan was mumbling, but it didn't stop her from vaguely hearing him talking about her father. The little girl raised her hands fiercely and grabbed Li Cancan's collar: "Li Cancan, what did you say about my father?"

?”

Li Cangua was a little stunned: "No, I didn't say anything."

I can't say that I want to recognize your father as my father!

Unexpectedly, my good brother Dong Zhi rebelled: "He said your father might be his biological father."

Lu Xiaoyu: "You fart."

Li CanGuan: “Yes, you fart!”

Winter Solstice: "..." Why are you all scolding me?

A few children in the back were making a lot of noise, but the adults didn't pay attention.

Everyone agrees with what Grandma Chen said. Now that they have land to farm, a house to live in and food stored, it doesn't matter if they don't go to town.

"But we haven't gotten back the sickles and forks we ordered at the blacksmith shop. The autumn harvest is coming soon. The rebels can't even wait for the autumn harvest, right?"

Boss Ma was a little reluctant. He still hoped to earn some money by selling fish in the town every day.

When he moved last time, Xiaoqing gave Lanhua an old piece of clothing. He was thinking about earning some extra coins and buying an old piece of clothing for his son Malantou.

Ma Lan is almost half a young man, and the clothes on his body are almost exposing his belly button.

"It's hard to say." Zhang San frowned and asked Li Sixi: "Didn't we make a date with the blacksmith shop? When is the date set? If not, go to the reminder at night and get it early. If there is really something, we will collect the food in advance.

.When you receive this food, you will always feel more at ease.”

Li Sixi: "I'll pick it up on the third day of the Lunar New Year. There have been so many people recently, so it's probably useless to rush. Besides, if you harvest the grain in advance, you have to wait until it matures. I went to the fields to see the rice today. The weather is good, so at least it will be better."

It can’t be harvested until after the tenth day of the lunar month. If it’s cloudy, it will have to be at least August and a half.”

"August and a half!"

After hearing Li Sixi say that the rice can't be harvested until the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, Zhang San's brows furrowed even more tightly: "Then go pick it up at noon on the third day of the Lunar New Year. Don't go to town in the past two days. Let's throw away the adobe first. This grain needs to be harvested."

, the house also needs to be built.”

Turning around, Zhang San shouted to a few children playing around: "Xiao Si, Guan Guan, there are still Goudan in Winter Solstice, you kids, don't run away like crazy. If you want to play, go to Happy Ridge over there."

We are playing in the woods, if you see any outsiders coming, come back and let us know."

Their place is a little remote, and most people won't come here.

Hearing Zhang Sanbo call them, Li Cancan immediately shouted: "My mother won't let me play in the woods because she said there are insects and they will bite my butt."

"Yes, there are snakes." Goudan wiped his nose with his sleeve.

When Li Guangguan heard that there was a snake, he became excited: "What are snakes afraid of? It's good to have snakes. Just catch them and eat them."

Last time Lu Xiaoyu and Chen Yaoyao caught a jumping snake and almost didn't give it a kick when they were making soup.

He covered his nostrils and could smell the fragrance in his mouth.

"Okay, stop being naughty. I asked you to go play in the woods, but I didn't ask you to go into the woods." Zhang San snored twice on Li Canguan's forehead angrily, "Also, I'm not happy to see a snake.

Catch them, especially the green ones, the red ones, the pretty ones, they are all poisonous."

"I'm not afraid of poisonous ones." Li Canguan said harshly, "I'll bring a stick, and I'll kill him with just one stick."

"If I tell you not to go into the forest, don't go in. When the time comes, just follow Xiaosi." Ma Erya pinched the youngest son's ear, "Just do whatever Xiaosi tells you, do you hear me?"

When he said he wanted to listen to Xiaosi, Li Cancan was not convinced: "Why should I listen to Xiaosi? He's not even older than me."

Seeing her son talking back, Ma Erya couldn't help but twist Li CanGuan's ears with her hands that were not very strong and twisted them: "What's wrong with you? I'm not as big as you. I'm telling you to listen to Xiaosi."

Just listen to Xiaosi. If you don’t listen, I’ll skin you when I come back.”

Lu Quan didn't want Xiao Si to follow Li CanGuan and the others to the woods, but their family of seven didn't have many children to begin with, and there were even fewer children half a year old like Xiao Si.

Seeing Lu Quan's hesitation, Mrs. Qiu finally understood what he was thinking and said, "My Xiaosi has a bad health. It's windy and humid over there in the forest. Let the little fish go. The little fish is older and more sensible."

Brother Zhang glanced at the ruddy-faced Lu Xiaosi and then at the skinny Lu Xiaoyu.

He knew that Lu Quan and his wife were partial to Lu Xiaosi, but he didn't expect that they would be so partial.

"Okay, then Xiaoyu..."

"No, I'll go." Although Lu Xiaosi didn't like playing with Li Cancan's children, she didn't worry about Xiaoyu and Li Cancan being together.

This Li Guangguan is the naughtiest, and the small fish are not as fierce as the small carp.

Seeing that Xiaosi took the initiative to go, Lu Quan could only agree: "Then let Xiaosi and Xiaoyu go together."

With his two children at home, he is not afraid of Li Canggun causing trouble. If there is an awkward fight or something, Xiao Si will not suffer any loss.

After things have been discussed, everyone still has to do what they should do.

Whether the Hongying Army comes or not, whether you should eat or not, whether you should eat or not, whether you should live or not.
