"Someone, come quickly, someone fell into the water~"
The child's screams were so sharp that they could even be heard faintly from the main house of the Qi family, which was two to three hundred meters away from the river.
Qi Bao'er was originally a spiritual cultivator and had strong ears. Xiao Yezi and Qiu Yu were also martial arts practitioners, so they must have strong ears as well.
Qi Bao'er was tired from riding in the carriage and wanted to go to bed to rest for a while. Qiu Yu was squatting on the ground to take back her shoes.
As soon as he heard this call to pray for treasure, he stood up and walked out. Qiu Yu also heard the call. This is the hometown of the county lord. Qiu Yu picked up his cloak without saying a word and hurriedly chased after him.
Qi Baoer arrived at the scene without saying a word this time, because as soon as she went out, she heard that people had been rescued, and she didn't slip and fall into the water, but jumped in by herself.
Ah, this guy's eyes suddenly lit up with gossip.
It can be said that the people who arrived in Qijia Village have gone through nine or eighty-one difficulties all the way, and settling down is the last step.
Now that the last trembling has passed, there are still people who can't think about it?
Just, a little confused.
The group of women who originally came rushing towards the river are now running back towards the river, and there is also an old lady Tian among them.
Who is this child who is so careless?
The child, who was worried that it was his own child, said angrily that he must have some meat slices on a bamboo board first when he gets home.
A group of people came to the river in a hurry, and then,,, they all became mute.
I saw an eleven or twelve-year-old girl on the shore, wrapped in a man's clothes, sitting slumped and shivering, with a pale face that was so thin that it was no longer than a hand.
The weather in October is getting colder, and my clothes are soaked in the river water and blown by the cold wind.,,
Standing two or three meters away from the little girl was a boy of fourteen or fifteen years old who was only wearing a tunic. It was obvious that the little girl was wearing his tunic.
This man Qi Bao'er knew, he was Qi Fucai, the eldest grandson of Qi Kangdou's family. They selected horses together in Sanhe Town and gave them to her as a gift.
"Isn't this Jiuni from Erxi's family?" Mrs. Tian slipped up to Qi Baoer at some point.
As for Qi Bao'er, she didn't know when she had already found a perfect position, standing next to a big willow tree below the crowd. People on the riverside couldn't see her, but she could see everything on the riverside.
She didn't want to cause a sensation right now.
"Jiuni?" Is it the Jiuni that she thought she was?
Mrs. Tian knew what she wanted to ask, and nodded firmly, "Do you remember the Liangye family? Erxi is the eldest grandson of the third brother of the Liangye family, and he married the daughter-in-law of the Tianjia Village next door to us."
"Er Xi and his wife don't know whether to say they are lucky or not. It would be great luck if they can have two children every three years after getting married. These two children are born every year."
It's just that, every year, they give birth to girls, but they are always girls.
"I heard a few days ago that I was pregnant again." Mrs. Tian said, feeling ashamed.
It was okay to be pregnant when I got here, but the problem was that Doctor Gao went to check and found that she was already more than four months pregnant.
What does this mean?
I was conceived while on the run.
During those few months, everyone really lived and ate together.
I really didn’t care about anything just to have a son.
Qi Baoer was in a daze when he heard this, "So, Nai, there are nine girls in their family?"
"That's not the case, there are only two of them. The eldest daughter and the second daughter have already been married, and I don't know where they are now. None of the middle ones survived, and only Jiuni and Thirteenth are left in the family."
"Pfft~" Shisanni!!!
A woman over there had already left in a hurry with Eleven Ni on her back. Some of the others followed her, and some stayed to continue washing clothes, but the ones who stayed behind were chatting about Eleven Ni.
There is no entertainment in the small village. This fresh gossip can become a topic of conversation for a long time.
Qibaoer also walked home silently on her short legs.
Mrs. Tian also wants to accompany her granddaughter home, but as for human life, there are some things that men say are useless, but they have to come forward. Among the women present, she is the oldest, so she has to take a look.
Qi Baoer arrived home on his front legs, and prayed on his back legs that the old man came back in a hurry with his long legs. Grandpa and grandson, I miss you and you miss me. We kissed each other again.
After the eagerness to reunite after a long separation passed, Old Man Qi did not ask about Qi Baoer's affairs in Beijing like Mrs. Tian did. Instead, he took his granddaughter to the house they were still building as before.
"You should have seen it when Guaiguai came back. Everyone has already moved into the new house. We asked that it also snows here in winter, and sometimes the snow is quite heavy, so we didn't want to part with it. They all used tiles.
We have also begun to cultivate the fields, but they have been abandoned for more than 20 years. The farmland that was said to be fertile has actually become wasteland long ago, so it will take a lot of effort."
It was registered in the files of Jiuchang Town. The amount of land in Qijia Village was based on that when it was offered for purchase. Although it was a lot cheaper, no matter how cheap it was, they were no different from reclaiming land now.
There is still a three-year tax exemption for land reclamation, but they don't have the land they have allocated.
It’s definitely a loss if you suffer a loss, but what can you do?
Their entire village is a foreign village. If they don’t accept it, how can they afford it?
Are you afraid of corvee military service?
"But this is a bit tricky. There are several small rivers coming down from the mountains. There is no need to worry about lack of water in the fields in the village. It will be more difficult at the beginning, but it will be fine when we can grow food later."
"We have fenced the orchard you found. After tidying it up, the village hired four people to guard the orchard. We can't rely on relief food alone. The money from selling the fruit can just be used to buy food. Why?
This year’s New Year must be passed.”
"Your father has also rearranged some of the skilled ones, and they go up the mountain in rotation every day. One is to explore the situation down the mountain, and the other is to hunt some wild animals for the tooth ceremony."
"There is another auspicious event in the village. It is your third grandfather's house. Your fourth cousin is engaged to a girl named Wang from the Xiaohe Village next door. The wedding day has been chosen, it will be the sixth day of next month."
"It's said nearby that the Taoist priests in Yunhua Temple are very accurate. Well, Yunhua Temple is on the mountain outside Yong'an City. I, your father, and your uncle Kaishan have all been there. It's very lively. It's crowded. Maybe someday.
I’ll take you to take a look, too.”
"We invited Taoist priest Li from Yunhuaguan to see what kind of formation our village had set up for people. Taoist Li said it was some kind of trap formation. The name is too long. Anyway, it means that it was not a formation created by a good person.
.”
"Those two large courtyards are not the center of the formation. The formation is in the well that has been sealed. That evil man was so wicked that he buried something under the well."
"Taoist Master Li didn't let us get close at that time. He took his disciples to dig out the things and took them away. He said he wanted to take them back to the temple and destroy them."
"The two courtyards have now been demolished. Director Li has chosen another place for us to build the ancestral temple, and also chosen a date to start construction, after the new year."
"Oh, there is also a school, choose it near the back mountain, it is quiet there."
"Also, your mother and a group of old women caught a lot of chickens and raised them, right behind our house."
It had been a long time since I had seen my granddaughter. Old Qi was babbling and wanted to tell her everything that had happened in the village recently.
