Shen Yu'an stared at Lin Chunyan's rich expression with great interest. In her previous life, she had studied investigative psychology for a period of time because of a mission.
She was talking about the time when she went up the mountain and used her supernatural powers to control Wang Zhicai. It seems that there is something more interesting going on.
Just as she thought, after Wang Zhicai and Lin Chunyan touched the taboo that day, Lin Chunyan went to find Wang Zhicai several times, and then they naturally got together.
Seeing Lin Chunyan's expression, Ma was confused and angrily twisted her arm.
Although her daughter is not as pretty as Shen Yu'an, she is also a pretty girl in the surrounding villages. She has kept her until now and has not married her off because she wants to find a good family. Although Wang Zhicai is a scholar, his family is extremely poor...How dare she give herself away like this!
No, she couldn't bear this loss. She had to go to the Wang family to seek justice for her daughter.
Ma pulled Lin Chunyan, who looked frightened but with a hint of secret joy, out of the Shen family's yard, still cursing as she left.
But this time the target of the insults became Wang Zhicai.
When they saw Ma and Lin Chunyan go in, there were quite a few people waiting outside the Shen family's door, curious whether the Shen family would sell food to them.
So when Ma came out cursing, there were still quite a few people waiting. The onlookers no longer squatted at the door of the Shen family, but followed Ma to move to another position.
I just wasted a lot of time selling grain to the villagers, even the lunch time has passed, but fortunately I had already eaten during the shift change when I was selling the grain.
"Second uncle and third uncle, please go to the town with me and buy two ox carts." Shen Yu'an said.
I haven't been to town for a few days, and I don't know what the situation is now. This is a good time to go and find out what's going on.
"Okay, let's go now. It will be dark if we go any later." Chen Yun said.
The three men did not drive the ox cart, but walked to the town and arrived in less than half an hour.
Xing'an Town at this time was very different from the first time Shen Yu'an remembered coming here. There were very few vendors hawking their wares on the street, and even passers-by looked dejected.
The three of them headed straight for the horse market with a clear goal, and the guy guarding the gate was the same guy who had received them last time.
The guy obviously still remembered this girl who was dressed simply but had a temperament that didn't match her clothes.
Seeing them, the waiter smiled and asked, "Girl, you are here again, what do you want to buy this time?"
"Niu Che, please take us to have a look." Shen Yu'an replied briefly.
The guy didn't think there was anything wrong with her attitude and took them to the backyard where the livestock were kept.
Shen Yu'an glanced over and saw that there were only two cows, a mule and a horse left.
With no choice, Shen Yu'an took the remaining two cows and asked his men to help harness them to the cart, one of which was a frame with a carriage.
She also thought of Xiao Zhang who was still pregnant, so since conditions allowed, she wanted to make her journey more comfortable.
The frames are ready-made, and they just need to be put on the cows. Shen Yu'an looked at the busy and sweaty man and kindly reminded him, "The world is in turmoil recently, so it's better for you to prepare in advance."
The guy was stunned when he heard this, thinking that they had bought two more ox carts, and maybe they had heard some news.
He smiled gratefully and said, "Thank you for your kindness, young lady, but today is the last day we will be open. When the owner comes, we will go to him."
"Let me also remind the young lady. I heard that there are many refugees gathered outside the county town. They want to force the county magistrate to open the warehouse to release grain. I think it will be bad."
Shen Yuan said: "Thank you for telling me."
After the ox cart was harnessed, Shen Yu'an paid the money and left with Shen Ming and Shen Yun.
Not long after they walked, a panicked middle-aged man came running towards them. The man's face was pale and his clothes were messy. Shen Yun quickly stopped the ox cart to avoid hitting him.
Shen Yun frowned and was about to tell him to be careful when he walked, but was interrupted by the man's flustered voice.
"The county town has been breached, and the refugees have broken into the county government office."
Shen Yu'an was originally sitting in the carriage. Hearing this, he suddenly opened the curtain and asked, "What's going on? Explain it clearly."
The middle-aged man looked at Shen Yu'an who came out from behind the curtain, and felt the oppression coming from her. He actually subconsciously told the story as she said.
"A large number of refugees gathered outside the county town. I originally wanted to go to the county town to buy food, but the refugees outside were crazy. After entering the city, they rushed to the county government office. When they couldn't find the county magistrate, they started to rob other people's food. The little food I bought with great difficulty was snatched away by those refugees."
Upon hearing this, Shen Yu'an asked casually, "How much food did they steal from you?"
"Two...two kilograms of rice." The man said casually.
Shen Yu'an turned around, took out a cloth bag from the car and threw it to the man. He subconsciously took it in his hand and took a look, and it turned out to be rice!
A little more than what he had managed to buy in the county.
Shen Yu'an returned to the carriage and said, "Let's go."
I don't know who this was said to, but both sides reacted.
Shen Ming and Shen Yun swung the whips in their hands in perfect tacit understanding. The man looked in that direction with gratitude and ran away quickly.
When the crowd that had just watched suddenly reacted, they realized that they had been in a daze. Not only had the girl who had just given the food left, but even the middle-aged man had disappeared.
Everyone was annoyed that they didn't react just now, but they didn't continue to dwell on it. They all heard what the middle-aged man said just now, that the refugees had attacked the county town, and they might come to their side next. They had to go home quickly to inform their families to pack up and run.
Chen Yun was also talking about this. He asked in confusion, "An girl, why did you give that person so much food just now?"
Remember that the first lesson Shen Yu'an taught them was not to be kind without reason.
Shen Yu'an said that because she was afraid that they would get into trouble because of their kindness. She was afraid that she would not be able to always watch over them on the road to escape the famine, so she had to let them understand these principles in advance.
She explained: "It suddenly appeared in the little treasure chest that Grandpa gave me. It should be for me to thank him for telling us this news."
The few pounds of food she had just given to the middle-aged man was indeed a thank you for telling them the news.
"Is that so." Chen Yun did not dwell on it too much. In his opinion, the small treasure chest belonged to his niece. It didn't matter what was inside or what she wanted to do with it. He asked that question just out of curiosity.
But thinking of what the middle-aged man said, he asked in a heavy tone: "Should we tell everyone what that man just said?"
"When we get back, Grandpa and I will go to the village head's house and tell him. Whether they are willing to believe it or not is none of our business. Let's go back and pack our things."
"Okay." Shen Yun sped up the car, and Shen Ming behind him also hurried to catch up.
