Chapter 296 Prepare in Advance

The latest website: Although Changzhi is sloppy, he is very energetic, his eyes are particularly bright, and his eyes are full of excitement. Unbearable."

These seven days are really uncomfortable, my whole body is rotten, and I feel like vomiting when I smell it.

Zhulan called to the boss, "Hurry up and boil hot water for your brother to take a bath."

The boss looked at the younger brother distressedly, this child has never suffered a crime, this is a terrible crime.

Zhulan thought that there was nothing left for breakfast, this kid must have returned home just after entering the city, his stomach was growling, "Boss, daughter-in-law, go roll the noodles."

Mrs. Li, "Hey!"

Half an hour later, Changzhi took a bath and ate noodles, and finally returned to his original appearance.

Zhulan saw that the boy had lost a lot of weight, "Tell me, where did you go with your master? Why are you in such a mess?"

Changzhi felt lingering fear, "Mother, I went to pay my respects to my birthday with Master, Mr. Qi calligraphy masters, I really didn't expect Master and Mr. Qi to be good friends."

He got a lot of credit this time, and his calligraphy has improved a lot!

Zhou Shuren asked, "Did you meet bandits when you came back from celebrating your birthday?"

Changzhi shook his head, "It's not a bandit. Mr. Qi's home is on the northeast border. There were two battles on the border a few days ago. Master was afraid of a big war, so he took me all the way back. Many residents on the northeast border also dragged their homes. We went south with our mouth, because there are everyone, Master has travel experience, we dare not show off our wealth, we didn’t change clothes all the way and rushed home, there are many people gathered outside the city gate today who want to enter the city!"

Why did Mr. Changzhi settle down in the frontier and Mr. Qi was very speechless. He even admired Mr. Qi's courage for the sake of artistic conception. Master persuaded Mr. Qi to leave, but did Mr. Qi leave?

Changzhi continued, heartbroken, "Father, there are so many guards at the city gate. They don't allow people who go south to enter the city unless they have local household registration. Fortunately, Master kept it safe, so we came in."

Zhulan and Zhou Shuren looked at Boss Zhou, Zhou Shuren asked, "Did you meet outside the city gate when you came back yesterday?"

Boss Zhou shook his head, "Father, we came back through the south gate, and there is no one outside the gate."

Zhou Shuren thought he was confused, and Changzhi came back through the North City Gate.

Zhou Laoer was very worried, "Father, are we really going to fight?"

It was the war in the Northeast. He really didn't want to recall the days of war. In the days of war, human life was not life, even animals were worse. Animals can be eaten since they are rare. If people are killed, they will be killed. It is terrible to think about it.

Everyone in the room was terrified except Zhulan and Zhou Shuren.

Zhou Shuren cleared his throat, and said as the head of the family: "Those who won't hit here, feel at ease, but don't even think about buying meat and vegetables these days."

It is estimated that the gates of the city will be closed during this period. It seems that Pingzhou City will not let the people going south pass. Another thought, if Pingzhou City is prepared, why would the states in the north let people go south?

Boss Zhou stood up, "Father, since only the gates of the North City are closed now, there should be farmers who are going to buy vegetables, so Mrs. Li and I will go and buy some meat and vegetables, so we won't be late and we won't be able to buy anything." .”

Zhou Shuren said, "Go ahead, sell as much as you can, I guess the city should be closed tomorrow."

Boss Zhou, "Hey!"

Chang Lian got up and said, "Father, I'll go to my brother-in-law's house to find out the news."

Zhou Shuren waved his hand, "Your brother-in-law must be in a terrible state right now, and he has no time to talk to you, so just stay at home!"

Boss Zhou, who had just left, came back again, "Father, someone from Jiang's mansion came to spread the word that the third younger brother doesn't need to go to Jiang's mansion, and that he should try not to go out these days."

Zhou Shuren, "Where is the person?"

"I passed the word and left in a hurry, not even taking the money I gave."

Zhou Shuren was silent, it seems that many things are not easy, "Got it, you can do your work!"

"Hey!"

Zhou Shuren said to Zhou Laoer again: "Send Rong Chuan and Ming Yun to the academy."

Zhou Er Er said, "Father, let's ask for leave!"

"No, the defenders of Pingzhou City have already prepared, the city is safe, and Rong Chuan and Ming Yun's classmates have many officials' children, and they can also get some news from their mouths."

Then he said to Rong Chuan: "Go to the academy and see if anyone is not here, come back and tell me."

Rong Chuan responded, "En."

Changzhi also got up, "Father, I'm going to Master's house."

"Go!"

Mrs. Dong was a little anxious, but she didn't dare to speak to her father-in-law. When her father-in-law got up and left, she hurriedly said to her mother-in-law, "Mother, I want to send a letter to my family."

Zhulan didn't stop her, "If you want to send a message, you can go, but I guess there are quite a lot of people sending messages, and you may not be able to send them out."

Dong and the others looked at each other, it was really like this, everyone who should get the news at this time has got the news, and they all want to send the news.

However, the two looked at each other and still wanted to see it.

Zhulan said: "Wait for the second child to come back and send you off. Now that people are panicking, it's inevitable that people with crooked intentions will take the opportunity to rob and make trouble. It's better to have a man with you."

The two daughters-in-law were a little scared and dared not go out alone.

Zhulan waited for the two daughters-in-law to go out, only the child and Xuehan were left in the room, the little girl was a little scared, "Mom, do you really want to fight?"

Zhulan nodded, "Yes."

Xuehan held her mother's hand tightly, "Will it hit us?"

She has never experienced a war, and she also knows that many people will die in a war, especially ordinary people.

Zhulan said comfortingly: "No."

Since the imperial court wants to use troops against the northwest, there will be no chaos in the northeast, otherwise it will be attacked from both sides, but even though the northeast will not be able to rise this time, many people will die.

An hour later, Mrs. Li and Boss Zhou came back. They didn't get any meat, but only a few baskets of wild vegetables.

Li's heart was very worried, "Mother, fortunately we went there quickly, otherwise we wouldn't be able to get the wild vegetables."

Boss Zhou answered, "The housekeepers of many big households in the market have all their meat wrapped up. Fortunately, when I came back yesterday, my father-in-law sent a lot of meat, otherwise our family would have to run out of meat."

Zhulan thought to herself, she was really lucky, the Li family sent a lot of meat, enough to last for a month or two, and she estimated that the civil unrest would not last long.

Zhou Shuren came back at noon, the Zhou family had no shortage of food, and they still had three meals at noon.

Mrs. Li admires her mother-in-law from the bottom of her heart. Last year, the family’s food was not sold and they moved to Pingzhou City. She went out with the head of the family just now to inquire about the food in the store. , I am not afraid at all.

For lunch, wild vegetable soup, the two catties of meat left over from yesterday were chopped up and fried with wild garlic. This was the first time I had such a simple meal after moving to Pingzhou.

After lunch, only Zhou Shuren and Zhulan were left in the room. Zhulan asked, "Did you hear anything?"
