Seeing Wang and Gongsun An heading to the village entrance with herbs and borrowed guards, preparing to set up a scaffolding and cook pots to brew medicine, he immediately turned around to find a few young adults who had not yet developed symptoms to organize order.
Erecting sheds, building stoves, applying pesticides, there were so many people and complicated tasks, dozens of guards, more than a dozen servants, and hundreds of tenants, Gongsun An felt like he was about to have a headache.
Compared with what happened in the second uncle's house, this place is really dangerous!
After all, he still has a few stewards available in the mansion. He just needs to ask his uncle what he wants, act as a messenger, and give instructions.
At this moment, he already felt his ears buzzing and his head hurt.
Looking at the complicated people and things in front of him, Gongsun An just wanted to run away.
But the tenants looked at him as if he was their savior. How could he leave? How dare he leave?
Just when Gongsun An felt that he was about to face the biggest challenge in history, Wang led two teams of guards over and started commanding them in an orderly manner.
A small team took cut-up strips of cloth to set up the cordon and marked out all key points.
The second team is responsible for building a shed and looking for firewood.
A few more tenants will come over there and go to the village to borrow pots and pans.
There are also a few guards over there. Don't just stand around. Those who are strong can go to the river to fetch water.
The rest of the people, those who were able to move, followed the young master to sort out the medicinal materials, and package the medicines one by one. If there was an emergency at home, they could take them back and brew them themselves.
What?
Someone wants to grab medicine?
"Never!" Wang shouted coldly.
He had never acted upon an order, knocking down the person who was trying to grab the medicine and dragging him in front of Mrs. Wang.
What people didn't expect was that this person was actually Yu San.
Wang's eyes narrowed dangerously, and she suddenly pulled out the knife guarding her and put it on Yu San's neck:
“Are you going to die or wait in line?”
The cold blade was pressed against her neck. Yu San's breath was suffocated, and she didn't dare to move. She spoke cautiously, "I, I, I, I'll line up..."
Wang gave him a cold look and warned: "This is the last time."
Yu San nodded tremblingly, and tentatively removed his neck from the knife. When it was completely away from the blade, he immediately rolled and crawled back.
Mrs. Wang pursed her lips coldly, looked at the two-room tenants behind her who were about to make a move, held the handle of the knife with both hands, and swung the knife fiercely!
Everyone only heard a loud "bang" sound, and the old elm tree that had stood for decades at the entrance of the village fell down and hit the river heavily, causing high water splashes and spraying the heads and faces of the people standing nearby.
.
When Yu San heard the noise and looked back, he saw the flat cross-section of the old elm tree and Wang's sideways movement with the knife. His feet immediately softened and he fell to the ground.
"Whoever dares to challenge the rules, this is what will happen!" Wang put down the knife and stated in a calm tone.
At that moment, all the calculations in Yu San's mind disappeared in an instant.
He was wrong, so wrong!
He actually thought he could take advantage of the chaos and do something.
Only now do I realize that in the face of absolute strength, everything is false.
Poor Yu San, the little Jiujiu in her heart was stillborn before she had time to implement it.
Mrs. Wang looked at Yu San who had crawled back to direct the second-room tenants to queue up. Seeing that the effect she wanted had been achieved, she turned around and returned the knife to the guard.
He also ordered: "Have someone bring this tree up and chop it into pieces for firewood."
No, as soon as he finished speaking, the guard remained motionless, dumbfounded, and showed no reaction at all.
Wang raised his eyebrows and coughed heavily. The guard seemed to have come back to his senses. He looked at her excitedly, said yes, and turned around to find someone to carry the tree.
As he walked, he turned back and looked at her with a complicated look that contained admiration.
When she looked over, he immediately looked away, not daring to look at her.
Wang turned around in a funny way, but when she turned around, she saw Gongsun An opening his mouth and looking at her in shock.
"Cousin, what's wrong with you?" Did you have a sudden stroke? Wang was suspicious and wanted to check Gongsun An's twitching face.
As soon as he raised his hand, Gongsun An retreated two meters away as if he was frightened.
"Cousin, you can't do it, you can't do it!" Gongsun Anxin looked at Wang's raised hand with lingering fear, and waved his hand in fear.
It's not because men and women are not close to each other, but because he is afraid that these hands will twist his head off.
He is not looking for death, he still wants to live!
Now Gongsun An finally understood why everyone had to leave the job of applying pesticides to this woman, his cousin's sister-in-law.
Because the average person simply cannot control such a big scene!
"Cousin, may I ask which master you studied under?" Gongsun An asked tentatively, with the desire "cousin, take me" written all over his eyes.
Wang just smiled mysteriously, told him to pack the medicine carefully, and then went to do other things.
.......
As night fell, in the courtyard of the Xu family, Xu Yue and the others slid down from the wall after they had been lying on the wall watching it all afternoon.
Wang Dayou had already prepared the meal. Seeing that the children were finally willing to come down, he hurriedly invited them to come over for dinner.
Nine recovered slaves, each holding a pottery bowl, squatted in the corner, carefully licking the thick and soft corn porridge in the bowl, reluctant to finish it in one go.
Xu Erniang glanced at them sadly and murmured softly: "I don't know if I can stay and eat so much of our food in vain. If we can't get back our money, it will be a real loss."
"Sister, don't say that. After all, you saved the person." Xu Yue pulled her sister and shook her head to signal her to stop talking. It would be very hurtful to let the other party hear.
Xu Erniang helplessly fiddled with the bun on her sister's head and responded: "I know, let's eat. Judging from the situation outside, my father and mother will not go home these days."
Wang Dayou led a group of children to finish the meal, and then put away all the dishes and stoves. He also told Xu Dalang to watch the courtyard gate, take good care of his sister, and call him if he had anything to do. Then he led Junmei and his sister home.
Before leaving, he still worried and said: "If anything happens, just call me. I'll be right next door."
Xu Yue nodded, "Yeah, I understand, Uncle Dayou, you have been tired for a day, go back and rest."
Wang Dayou looked at the nine slaves again, but still felt uneasy. It was not until Xu Dalang showed the polished steel knife in his hand in annoyance that he closed the door and left.
Recalling the achievements of the Xu brothers and sisters in the robber den, Wang Dayou felt that he was confused. They were just nine weak slaves. The two sisters Xu Erniang and Xu Yue could handle them. He was worried that the three of them would
dangerous.
There were only three brothers and sisters, Xu Yue, left in the courtyard.
After Wang Youliang had locked up his chickens and ducks and returned to the room, the three brothers and sisters entered the main room.
His parents were not at home and it was chaotic outside, so Xu Dalang had to squeeze in and sleep with his two younger sisters.
The big kang in the main room was spacious enough. The three of them lay sprawled on the same kang, guessing what the father and mother were going to do, and soon fell asleep clinging to each other.
