Two days after this incident, Chunxiao took Xiaohua, Yan Dashan and Yan Dahe to the county town.
It has been a while since she came back, but the matter of buying someone has not been finalized. Now that she is going to the county town, it is natural to get this done.
With a horse-drawn carriage, going to the county town is no longer a difficult task. What used to take half a day now only takes less than half a day.
"Chunxiao, if you have the chance, please get me a carriage. This carriage is so rare."
"Maybe there's a chance later." Chun Xiao smiled. "We have to go back tomorrow after we find an inn. Why don't we go for a look?"
"Let's go shopping. I haven't been to the county town for a long time. I promised Duo'er and Pan'er that I would buy them nice clothes. You can accompany me to the clothing store later."
"Okay, let's go shopping."
The four of them stayed in an inn and left their carriage in the backyard of the inn.
"Brother, is the county town in Pengdong the same as ours? Is the food the same as ours?"
"Some things are the same, some things are different, but it's colder over there than here, and it gets dark later."
"I originally wanted to go and see it, but since you're going this year, I'll have to find an opportunity later."
"Whether you go or not is secondary. I can earn some money for you. With the money, you can go to Yunzhou to play. I heard from the horsemen that the scenery there is beautiful."
Yan Dahe smiled guiltily when he heard Yunzhou's story. Not only had Yan Dashan's family not mentioned Yan Qi's affairs to Yan Qi, but even the villagers hadn't mentioned it. Yunzhou held a shadow over them, so they decided to let it go.
"Once you guys have settled down there, we can build a big yard. We'll definitely go over there to have some fun in the future."
"Second brother, are you worried that you won't have a place to stay when you get there? Don't worry, there are plenty of places. Just make good friends with everyone in the village, and then appoint two managers. We can also ask the villagers to help with the farm work. We can go there anytime. Not only you, but our parents can go there too. But it's best to go in spring or autumn, otherwise it's not good to be exposed to the sun in the summer and cold in the winter."
"Just as you think, there will definitely be a day."
"Brother Dahe, the young lady's farm is very big. You will know it when you go there."
"I've heard Shuwen say this many times, Chunxiao, so do you still want to buy a manor?"
"Of course I have to. I'm currently training people, but it's probably going to be difficult to build something this big again. Let's just take it one step at a time."
A few people walked onto the street and suddenly saw a lot of people running in one direction.
"What's going on? What happened?"
Yan Dahe grabbed a man and said, "Uncle, what happened over there?"
"The county government has issued a notice. I heard that some of the people who were conscripted before are going back home. Is there anyone in your family? Go and check it out quickly." After saying that, she broke free from his hand and ran away.
"That's great." Dahe happily clapped his hands. "Brother, Chunxiao, let's go and see if there are any people from our village."
They followed the crowd, and after walking for about two incense sticks, they finally reached a large wall. Chunxi looked at the notice, and it was indeed a list of people returning home, with a return date of about a month. The entire wall was covered with it.
"Hurry up and look to see if there is anyone from our village." Yan Dashan was also excited. He didn't expect that he could get this good news in advance after going to the city.
They searched one town after another, and saw Sanye Town in the lower right corner. They then began to look for Yanjia Village excitedly.
"Oh, I see Yan Wangfu. Chunxiao, look, it's Yan Wangfu, right?" Dahe excitedly pointed to the side. "And Yan Mutou, why don't I see Yan Shitou?"
"And there's Ah Qing from Uncle Su's family."
Several people looked at them one by one, and counted them after they left. There were more than 20 people. More than 100 people left Yanjia Village at the beginning. Except for the more than 20 people who died after reporting the death, there were only more than 20 people left who came back, which was really too few.
"Why are there only so many people?"
"There's a war going on up ahead, so it's good that you can come back."
Chunxiao had a bad feeling in her heart. Most of those who came back early were injured or disabled. Otherwise, why would they be asked to return early when the war was still going on? However, these were just speculations. She hoped that it was not what she thought.
"Chunxiao, let's find some paper and pen and write down these names. We'll go back tomorrow and tell the villagers to make them happy."
Without them saying anything, there was already a man with pen and paper nearby who was doing copying business. They gave him 20 copper coins and asked him to copy a copy for them as well.
Everyone was very happy with the good news, and they went to the embroidery shop to look at clothes. The clothes in the county embroidery shop were better looking than those in the town. Yan Dashan and Yan Dahe bought two sets of beautiful clothes for each family member, and Chunxiao also bought two sets for herself.
The next day, they went to the brokerage firm. The price of the women there was higher than Pengdong's. Women cost 9 taels and men cost 15 taels. They asked several shops and they all had similar prices. There were originally more men than women in the village, so Chunxiao bought 9 women this time.
Yan Dashan and Yan Dahe bought three men and six women. They checked the deeds and completed the formalities, then went to the car dealership to rent three ox carts to go back.
When they arrived in the town in the afternoon, she took the nine people directly back to Lu Village, while Yan Dashan and Yan Dahe took two ox carts to Zhoujia Village.
Chunxiao arrived at Lu Village and handed the person over to Wang Shiwen, asking them to settle him down. He then asked Xiaohua to drive to Zhoujia Village to pick up Yan Dashan and Yan Dahe.
After a busy day, it was already dark when I got home.
When Yan Dashan got home, he told Yan Bingfa and Zhou the good news he had received yesterday. Zhou then told Fang and others about this matter overnight. Fang was so excited that she couldn't sleep all night. Although it was just a piece of wood that came back, it was better for one person to come back than to die on the battlefield.
