Chapter 256 Crisis

Hu people are tough and unrestrained by ethics, and meeting an unmarried couple is not a big deal. People are curious, and everyone thinks that the young master will definitely come to meet the charming future bride, but he has never appeared!
Lord Ge naturally asked about this, but the answer he could get was: He is not here!
This is embarrassing. We are here to see off the marriage, not to send it to you to monitor your residence. What the hell is that even the person who keeps his word can't find it?
"It's really awesome... Summer insects can't speak to you!"
Lord Ge, who wanted to show his talent, struggled hard for a long time but couldn't use any strength. In the end, he simply gave up the idea of ​​communicating with the Hu people and became a condo in the yurt. Anyway, he didn't even use P to communicate normally, so it would be better to wait for others to notify him!
In such a strange environment, everyone stayed for ten days.
Something worse than being treated coldly finally happened: I can’t eat enough!
Agulai's men snatched most of the remaining food and grass from the wedding team, but left them with food for two days. Everyone ate it carefully for four days, and the food reserves were finally exhausted.
Under the mediation of Lord Ge, the Hu people sent people to the camp every day to bring jerky that is hard to swallow. Although this thing is so unpalatable, it can at least not starve to death. It is also a bit wild to eat jerky with the hot snow water.
But at this time, even the supply of jerky meat was insufficient. Each person's amount was only enough to eat 60% full for a meal. If you are hungry, just bear to bear it.
Lord Ge’s protest was of no use, and the Hu people did not increase the supply of food. In their words, many people in the tribe also ate this way. The food was tight in winter, so they passed by just one douche.
The news came, and the parents sent a group scolded again:
"The people of Beihu are deliberately starving me to death. His grandmother, let's fight with them while she still has some strength!"
"This tribe is really a poor man, and he doesn't even give him a meal. I'm so proud! Their nobles are so delicious and spicy, why should we drink the northwest wind?"
"I have seen the guards outside relax these days. Otherwise, escape at night?"
There are indeed many people in the car house that cannot fill their stomachs, which is a fact. However, those are the so-called untouchables with the most humble status in the tribe, and the Han people who were captured as slaves! The Northern Hu people actually treated the missions in the way of treating slaves, which shows how arrogant they are.
Not to mention anything else, the dowry they took away in advance was a huge sum of money. If they sold the fine and soft materials they snatched away later, they only needed to take out a small part to make the delegation live better. However, people didn't have this idea at all, as if they wanted to let these Han people die on their own.
If there is insufficient food, the person's body will become weak, and soon someone will fall ill because of the unacceptable environment. Lord Ge went to find medicine, but was pushed back by the cold word "no".
At the critical moment, Xia Hanxue stood up.
In the yurt, she gently opened her jewelry box. Lian'er was just aside, but when she saw her take out a beautiful tassel stunning, she said anxiously: "Miss, this was given by the master when you were fourteen years old! The lady has always liked it very much. When she married this time, she specially brought it, saying that seeing it was like seeing daddy... Could it be that it would be necessary to exchange it for something? If you sold it in the capital, you might be able to buy a small yard, but here..."
"What else?" Xia Hanxue asked back: "Is human life important or is it important for a piece of jewelry?"
After living here for a long time, the locals are no longer so alert to the Han people.
So when there was insufficient food, Xia Hanxue tried to ask Lian'er to exchange for food with jewelry, but she didn't expect it to be successful: Beihu people can often find some food together! The patient is in urgent need of medicinal materials, and she kept taking out her own jewelry to exchange for some herbs from Beihu people.
Strangely, the Beihu people who were responsible for monitoring and monitoring them did not interfere with this matter. However, after thinking about it, I felt relieved: those valuable items would probably fall into the hands of the nobles of the tribe after several changes. Since this is the case, they must have been happy to see it happen. Perhaps this is the so-called "squeezing out the last bit of value."
"Go quickly." Xia Hanxue said while pulling down the few items left in the jewelry box: "You can count things when you buy outside on weekdays, and you can talk about everything you can softly and let others give us a discount... Change the medicinal materials, and use more attention when eating, and you must always change more."
Lian'er reluctantly said "Oh" before slowly walking out of the yurt.
After sitting in the room for a while, Xia Hanxue also walked slowly outside. What greeted her were sincere smiles:
"Why is the county lord coming out? It's cold outside, so you'd better go back! Or, I'll help you light a fire?"
"My lord, I had a full meal yesterday... I heard that you exchanged your jewelry for the Beihu people? Don't do this, my daughter's family is full of treasures, and she can't give it to others casually. The dowry and his own money were snatched away by the Hu people, and you only have this little thought left, but don't make it for us... Hey, I'm strong, eating a meal a day is not a problem, and it was the same when I was at home..."
"I heard that the villain's cotton coat was sewn by the county lord himself, so how can this be done? Hey, when the villain was patrolling, he saw the lights on at night... The villain said a lot, the county lord should cherish his body, and never be too tired, otherwise I would be ashamed of myself..."
"Liu Er is a good brother from my fellow countryman. Seeing that his illness is getting worse, the county magistrate complained that he had received medicinal materials for him. I used to think sending a bride was a chore, but you are so nice to everyone... I didn't say that, it's worth it to sacrifice my life!"
Xia Hanxue almost always sat in the car on the road. Although she had occasional opportunities to relax, not many people could see her beauty. As the lord of Guangling County in Qinfeng, she naturally couldn't walk around like eating barbecue in the woods all day long. On the one hand, she wanted to mobilize all the troops, and on the other hand, if she frequently showed up, she would lose the dignity of her unmarried daughter.
Later, when I arrived at the territory of Beihu, there was not so much attention.
The only place where she can move is the size of a palm. Does it make her stay in the yurt all day long?
The huge team has countless jobs, some of which are not suitable for big men with thick hands and feet. Therefore, Xia Hanxue took the initiative to take on the job within her ability, and everyone who thought she was a spoiled little girl before looked at her with admiration.
Chapter completed!
