Everyone sat on the bullock cart and drove staggeringly into Qingyan Town.
Although Qingyan Town is not as lively as Fucheng, the market is still bustling with people.
As soon as everyone entered, they were infected by the lively atmosphere and felt that they finally felt settled.
Bai Yi turned around and saw the expressions of the Shen family and his party, and asked, "Do you want to stop and transfer?"
Everyone looked at each other and declined.
Mrs. Shen said: "Let's go to the village first. It will be dark if we delay any longer."
Bai Yi nodded, then led the way and continued walking forward.
Passing through Qingyan Town, there are muddy roads one after another, which are often walked on by people, forming a flatter road.
After walking for almost five or six miles, the Shen family saw a village. They could see a high mountain behind the village from a distance.
It is noon now, and the residents in the village are squatting at the intersection with their rice bowls, eating and chatting.
Da da da~
The sound of the bullock cart attracted everyone who gathered to eat together at the end of the village.
The villagers turned around and saw a group of people driving an ox cart appearing in the village.
Everyone jumped down from the bullock cart and approached those people with a smile.
Shen Rong asked an older man who was looking at them: "Uncle, is this Longzian Village?"
The old man said kindly: "This is Longzian Village. Are you looking for someone or what?"
The other people carrying their rice bowls also looked over curiously, wondering what these people were doing.
Shen Rong told them their identities and the reasons why they came here.
A woman holding a bowl repeated in surprise: "What? Are you here to escape?"
Everyone looked at the Shen family with surprised expressions.
There are no fleeing people like this. Although they have not read the book, they are not deceived.
Not to mention what they were pulling looked at the shiny cows and the things on the cars.
As for the clothes they wear, there are no patches.
These days, who doesn’t have a few patches on their clothes?
Shen Rong smiled kindly at them and said, "Yes, I just came over here."
He then asked: "Can I tell you where Li Zheng lives?"
The old man stood up and pointed ahead, "Here, go straight in, take the first right and you'll find the first house."
"Thank you, old man."
Shen Rong thanked him, and the Shen family continued to walk forward.
The people behind them watched as the Shen family entered the village. They poured the rice from the bowl into their stomachs in groups, and then followed them.
It's incredible that these people actually came here fleeing from famine.
They should go and see the excitement.
A group of people arrived at the door of Li Zheng's house noisily. Before the Shen family could knock on the door, one of those who followed ran over and knocked on the door.
"Uncle Lizheng, someone has come to our village. Come out and have a look."
There were voices inside, and a man's slightly older voice came out.
"Dazhuang, what are you doing? You broke the door!"
The Shen family heard the people inside shouting the name of the man knocking on the door, and looked at him twice.
His name and appearance really don't fit at all.
The name Da Zhuang makes people think that he should be a tall, strong, honest-looking man.
But this big guy is so skinny that he looks like he can't afford to eat.
Looking at his face, he also looked shrewd.
The door opened, and an old man who looked energetic came out, followed by several people.
The Shen family looked away from Da Zhuang.
The old man saw a large number of people standing outside the door and asked in confusion: "What's going on? What are these people doing here?"
Bai Yi took out the government-stamped document from his arms and planned to explain the identities of the Shen family and his party.
But the man who had just been called Da Zhuang spouted out the reason why they came to the village before Bai Yi could speak.
"Uncle Li Zheng, these people said they came here to escape famine, and the government allowed them to live in our village."
When he stopped, Bai Yi came forward with the official documents and handed them to Li Zheng.
Lao Li was taking the document in his hand and looking at it, then raised his head and looked at the Shen family.
He said: "Since it was arranged by the government, let's live in the village, as long as we don't cause trouble."
Shen Rong saw that Li Zheng was not too embarrassed and felt relieved.
However, they couldn't sleep in tents when they came to the village, so he asked about their residence and land.
After hearing this, other people in the village also pricked up their ears and listened carefully.
There are not many households in their village. Except for the fields in their own hands, each household has rented or sold everything else to people from other villages.
There are also vacant plots of land that can be used to build houses. Although no one lives in them, they have been planted with vegetables by neighboring households.
No one lived in that place and no houses were built, so everyone just turned a blind eye.
Now no one wants the land they live on to be taken away, so they can only wait for Li Zheng's answer.
Lao Li was holding the document in his hand and continued to read it before he raised his head.
"It says here that the government has approved two pieces of land for you to build houses on, but if you want the land, you need to buy it yourself."
Everyone in the Shen family nodded. They already knew that two pieces of land were allocated to build a house.
However, they are all native-born farmers, and they feel uneasy without the land in their hands.
Lao Li was looking at the people gathered outside, waved his hands towards them and said, "You have nothing to do all day long? Stop hanging around."
Then he looked at Shen Rong and said, "Come in with me and talk."
There were many Shen family members and there were oxcarts, so not all of them went in.
Shen Yue went in together with Mr. Shen, Shen Rong, Zhang Mancang and Bai Yi, while the others stayed outside to look at things.
No one was surprised when Mr. Shen and the others went in, but they were discussing something, so why did the pretty girl follow them in and cause trouble.
Everyone couldn't help but take a second look at Shen Yuyu, and then felt that this girl was really pretty.
Shen Yuhu and the others went in, but no one around them left either.
They gathered around the people left outside by the Shen family and started talking.
