Chapter 151 Going to Hongyan Town

"Really? Then let me congratulate the head of the village first! When Guiyuan gets married, can we also come and have a drink at the wedding?"

Qiao Qiqi said politely after hearing this.

"Of course, of course! Our custom here is that no matter whose family has a happy event, the whole village must be invited to a grand banquet."

Sun Lizheng looked at the sky outside and said, "In that case, I will go to the town right away to arrange for craftsmen to work for you. Do you want to come with me? I see you brought a donkey cart with you, so you can buy some food. When we build houses here, we always provide meals for the craftsmen."

"Okay, then please wait a moment, headman. I'll go get the donkey cart!"

Pei Shaoling responded, glanced at Qiao Qiqi and walked out.

Not long after Pei Shaoling left, a vulgar voice came from outside the door, "Uncle, I heard you have guests? Did you leave any food for me?"

Sun Lizheng frowned and walked out, "Erdan, why are you here again?"

"Uncle, I have no choice. There's no food at home, so I have to come to you! I heard that my sister Xiuhua is getting married, so the family must have prepared a lot of food, right? Why not let my nephew try it first?"

Through the open gate, Qiao Qiqi saw a young man with a pointed chin and monkey-like features, who was looking around the courtyard of the headman's house with a gleaming look in his eyes.

"No, wait until your sister gets married before you come over. There's nothing to eat at home now!"

Sun Lizheng refused directly, "If you're hungry, go find something to eat in the mountains! You have hands and feet, so why can't you get something to eat?"

"I'm not going! You know my parents went to the mountains to find food for me, and they were taken away by wolves!"

Sun Erdan said disdainfully.

"So what about the money you made from selling your wife? It's only been three days, and you've already spent it all?"

Sun Lizheng asked with a look of disappointment, "I went through so much trouble to find you a wife for your father's sake, just to keep your father's family line going. And you just gave her away!"

"Uncle, you know that woman is an exiled criminal. Sell her and then find me a better one."

Sun Erdan approached Sun Lizheng with a playful smile on his face, but his eyes were fixed on Qiao Qiqi who was sitting in the main hall.

His eyes lit up, "What a beautiful young lady! Uncle, is this the new wife you told me about?"

"Nonsense! I won't harm other people's girls again! The people in the main hall are here to see my uncle..."

Before Sun Lizheng could finish his words, Sun Erdan pushed his uncle away and rushed into the main hall.

Sun Lizheng was not paying attention and was pushed to the ground by him.

Sun Erdan drooled from the corner of his mouth, "My dear, are you a fairy from heaven? You are so beautiful!"

As he said that, he reached out and touched Qiao Qiqi.

Qiao Qiqi narrowed her eyes, glanced at Sun Lizheng on the ground, and quickly avoided his claws.

"Hey, my dear, don't hide! I think today is a good day. How about I take you home and get married right now?"

Sun Erdan walked towards Qiao Qiqi with a lustful look, intending to take her directly back to his home.

How could Qiao Qiqi let him succeed? She kicked him more than a meter away.

Then he stood up and walked out of the main hall.

When she reached the door, she helped Lizheng Sun, who was still sitting on the ground, up and asked, "Lizheng, are you okay?"

"It's okay, it's okay!"

Sun Lizheng waved his hand and looked angrily at Sun Erdan who had followed him out, "You little bastard, you even dare to push your uncle?"

Sun Erdan looked nonchalant, "Uncle, aren't you okay? This woman is so beautiful, I want to take her home as my wife!"

"Nonsense! She's married! You can't do that!"

Sun Lizheng glared at him and said, "Go back to your own home, or don't call me uncle anymore!"

Seeing that his uncle was angry, Sun Erdan walked out of the headman's house with an unwilling look on his face.

Qiao Qiqi stood beside Sun Lizheng, looking at Sun Erdan's unwilling eyes, knowing that she would probably get into some trouble in the future!

But it doesn’t matter!

It’s not that easy to take advantage of her!

Soon, Pei Shaoling drove the donkey cart over and said, "Okay, let's go!"

"Well, this donkey is a little small, so let's just walk there. This town is not far from our Cave Village, it will only take about an hour."

Sun Lizheng glanced at the little donkey and suggested.

"It's okay. Although this donkey is small, it can pull hundreds of pounds without any problem. You are older, so come on up!"

Qiao Qiqi smiled faintly, "It's not too late to walk when you get back!"

"Okay!"

Sun Lizheng no longer refused and got on the ox to drive the carriage.

Qiao Qiqi and Pei Shaoling walked side by side in front.

"Oh, wrong way, take that way!"

Sun Lizheng saw them heading towards Hanzhou City and hurriedly stopped them, saying, "The town we are going to is not in the direction of Hanzhou City. Which direction should you go?"

Sun Lizheng pointed to the road in the opposite direction of Hanzhou City and said to the two, "Our Yandong Village is just over a few mountains away, and across the way is Dagan! There are many people from Dagan in Hongyan Town who secretly come here to do business with us. Many of the things sold in the town are also from Dagan."

"Is that so? Then will the Da Gan army come in from that place and attack our Dayong?"

Qiao Qiqi asked casually, pretending to be unintentional.

"Oh, that won't happen. The mountain road is very difficult to travel. If we fight, only ordinary people like us will suffer. How can those people make money?"

Sun Lizheng sighed, "Our Yandong Village is the poorest place in all of Hanzhou City. If you exiles have money, you've all spent it elsewhere, making our village even more destitute!"

Qiao Qiqi understood it instantly!

It turns out that these villages survived on the silver that the exiles brought with them!

After all, when you first come to a strange place, you have to spend money, right?

"However, what I'm curious about is how you, who are quite well-off, were exiled to this cave village?"

Sun Lizheng asked curiously.

"Isn't this because of the rebellion in Liangzhou City? Hanzhou City was afraid that spies from Da Gan would sneak in, so they sent us away at the city gate!"

Qiao Qiqi said helplessly, "I do want to spend money, but I have to spend it!"

"It's okay, it's okay. From now on, you can just stay here in my cave village! I'll explain everything to the villagers. From now on, you will be treated the same as them. There will be no difference!"

Sun Lizheng said happily.

Qiao Qiqi curled her lips.

Sure enough, once the money is in place, everything is easy to discuss.

Soon, an hour later, the three of them arrived in the town.

"You two, I'm going to find a craftsman for you first. Feel free to buy whatever you want. There's no need to wait for me, I'll have someone take me back later!"
