Chapter 121 Temporary Placement
At this time, Yue Zhenjiang and Yue Zhenhe came over and said to her, "Ali, we've checked those two rooms. They're no longer habitable. The foundations have sunk and could collapse at any time."
These words were like a bolt from the blue to the woman.
"What should we do? This is the only house we have. If we can't live here, we'll be homeless."
"Auntie, don't worry. Isn't there a village nearby? See if you can find a temporary place to stay in the village."
"There are some in the village, but what about us?" The old lady looked embarrassed, as if she had something to hide.
Seeing her like this, Yue Fuli and Hu Wei looked at each other and asked, "Auntie, how far is this place from the nearby town?"
"It's not far, only about twenty miles. But now the road leading to the town has collapsed, so we can't get to the town even if we want to."
"In that case, you will have no choice but to be resettled in the village."
However, the woman shook her head and said, "Forget it. We'll just stay here temporarily. When the weather clears up in a couple of days, we'll find someone to help repair the house."
Seeing that the woman was unwilling, Yue Fuli and the others did not want to force her. However, they did not stay for long. After leaving a silver ingot, they headed towards the village not far away.
Yue Fuli planned to go and see if there was a similar situation in the village.
After they entered the village, no one came to question them because everyone was busy moving.
Many houses in the village were damaged by the heavy rain last night.
Finally, the village chief came forward, looked at Yue Fuli and his group, and asked, "Dear guests, what brings you to our humble village?"
"Hello, Village Chief. We are traveling merchants passing through this area. We stopped here temporarily because the road collapsed. Since your village isn't far away, we came to see if you can help us."
"We appreciate your kindness, sir, but the village is in such a mess right now that we can't take you in. Why don't you find a place to rest first and leave once the government clears the road?"
"In that case, we won't bother you any more." Yue Fuli saw that the village chief didn't want them to stay and help, so naturally she wouldn't rush them.
When they were about to leave, they noticed a child staring at them intently.
Yue Fuli has always liked children, and couldn't help but smile at the other person, but she scared the other person, and then he ran away quickly.
Yue Fuli didn't take it seriously and prepared to leave the village with everyone. But before they had gone far, they saw a child pulling a child older than him to catch up with them, shouting, "Wait, wait."
Hearing the shout, Yue Fuli and his group reined in their horses and turned to look over.
Not long after, two children came running over. The older child then looked up at Yue Fuli and asked, "Sir, did Shitou just say you're here to help?"
"Yeah, what's wrong?"
"My grandpa is sick. Can you help me take him to town or help me find a doctor?"
After hearing this, Yue Fuli shook her head and said, "No, the road to the town is broken and we can't get through."
The little boy was very disappointed when he heard this.
The child named Shitou looked at Yue Fuli with an unhappy face and said, "You liar, you said you were here to help us, but you are lying."
