Xia Daohua was completely impressed. The Dai family was like ghosts that lingered around and were jumping around so happily.
With their urge to commit suicide, how did they manage to accumulate such wealth?
However, it is quite funny that a hapless kidnapper sneaked in among a group of real killers.
Although she knew she shouldn't laugh, Xia Daohua couldn't help it.
She turned her back and snickered for a while, her shoulders shaking for a long time before she finally stopped smiling and put on a serious expression again:
"I'll leave this guy to you!"
Li Gan nodded: "Okay. Okay."
The two of them kept in tacit agreement and did not mention a word about the killers who disappeared and reappeared in the vegetable garden and were tied up tightly.
After tossing and turning for nearly a night, when Xia Daohua returned to her room, the sky was once again getting light.
She touched her little face.
It’s good to be young.
After staying up for two consecutive nights, my face didn't break out or get pimples, let alone spots, wrinkles or dark circles.
Just wash your face with clean water and you will have a face as smooth as a lotus flower again.
Xia Daohua fell headfirst onto the kang and fell asleep as soon as her head touched the pillow. This speed of falling asleep in seconds is something even older people can only dream of.
Xia Daohua, who was in a deep dream, didn't know that Li Gan's men were taking the kidnapper to the Dai family to demand compensation.
What she didn't know was that the old couple of the Xia family had already talked to their adult children and grandchildren one by one and had already decided to relocate the whole family.
The old man of the Xia family and Zhou came to Beiguan Village because they fled from Yuzhou and southern Shandong to the outside of the Great Wall.
There are many people outside the Great Wall and the land is fertile. Although the winters are cold and the summers are hot, the mountains and forests are rich in products and water resources, making it a good place for farming and reclamation.
They put down roots here, had children, and gradually regarded this place as their home.
But the children's concerns are correct.
War is far more terrifying than natural disasters.
In the event of natural disasters, you are frugal and good at calculating. As long as you store enough money and food on a daily basis, you can always survive.
Before the family split up, Zhou was so frugal every year, controlling her children and not letting them spend money. She even calculated every meal clearly, whether it was dry or liquid. If she didn't have enough spare money or food, she would rather delay her children and grandchildren's marriages than spend money. Wasn't it just to prepare for famine?
However, Zhou could not survive the war just by careful planning.
The taxes from the government are endless, and the swords from the enemy are hard to defend against. What's more, the bandits pass by like combs, and the soldiers pass by like rakes. No matter whether it is the enemy army passing through or our own people, the common people will not have any good results.
At this time, the best choice and the only correct path is to move.
But moving is not an easy thing.
Not to mention the hassle of household registration and travel permits, just moving the gifts is difficult.
First of all, I have to deal with my property. There are still many things I need to take with me. Otherwise, food, drink and bedding on the road will cost money!
Another thing is to ensure personal safety.
It would be best if we could mobilize the whole village to go together.
If you are traveling with your family alone, you need to think carefully and plan your route carefully.
Hiring escorts and carriages is a huge expense.
If you follow the caravan, the old and young in your family may not be able to keep up with them.
If you rely entirely on yourself, it will be difficult to guarantee your safety on the road.
As the saying goes, "Even innocent people in carriages, boats, and inns deserve to be put to death." Do you think that's just a joke? This is the summary of the blood and tears of countless ordinary people over thousands of years!
On the streets, in carts, boats, inns, and peddlers, anyone could try to steal your money or kill you, or even cheat you without mercy. Therefore, wealthy families and caravans would employ their own guards and professional escorts.
When ordinary people travel far away, they can only rely on the help of their fellow villagers, and the protection of God and the protection of Bodhisattva.
When Xia Daohua woke up, she found it was almost noon.
The house is quiet.
Lihua sat cross-legged quietly on the kang, doing needlework.
The bright sunshine came in through the window, making half of the kang very bright and warm.
The sunlight shines on Lihua's face. The surface of her white and rosy skin is covered with a layer of fine peach-like fuzz, which looks very cute.
Xia Daohua quietly watched this heartwarming scene until Lihua glared at her in reproach and started to lash out at her:
"Just get up when you wake up! Why are you staring at me like an idiot? You lazy girl, you're already grown up, and you still have the nerve to stay in bed?"
Xia Daohua rolled lazily in her quilt and praised from the bottom of her heart: "Sister, you are so beautiful."
Lihua blushed slightly: "Who did you learn this from? Your little mouth looks like it's covered in honey? Get up quickly! I'm telling you..."
Lihua told Xia Daohua that her family was planning to relocate. Xia Daohua was immediately excited:
"Really? That's great!"
Lihua was a little confused: "Daohua, don't you like it here?"
Xia Daohua calmed down immediately, realizing she had been exaggerating. "How could I not like it? We have mountains, water, and forests here, and deer, roe deer, pheasants, and rabbits everywhere. It's such a wonderful place! But isn't there a war going on here? No matter how good it is, I can't stay in a place where there's always a fight!"
Lihua nodded. "That's what our parents said. That's what our grandparents meant, too."
Next, the Xia family got busy.
