Shen Zhaozhao gave Guo 꿻 a thumbs up in the video.
She just likes Guo 꿻’s personality, which deserves to be scolded.
On this side, Guo Xiao was staring at the volunteers menacingly, while on the other side, the noise was getting louder and louder, alarming the Cao and Chen families.
Cao Ya came over quietly, asked about the whole story, pursed her lips, and said nothing.
"Quiet!" Seeing that the noise was about to overflow the inn, Zhao Jiusan shouted loudly.
No one paid any attention to him, and the volunteers were so indignant that they could not stop.
Here, three exiled prisoners were whispering.
Snap——
The horsewhip hit the ground, making a long-lost crisp sound.
The post station suddenly became quiet.
The surrounding sounds disappeared, but a low sobbing female voice was particularly obvious.
"My grandfather was such a noble man that he wanted to lead everyone to the northern desert to garrison and reclaim wasteland and make contributions to the court. It's a pity that at his age, he still has to negotiate with those prisoners."
Hua'er was crying with all her heart. After she finished speaking, she realized that the whole place was quiet and everyone was looking at her.
She raised her sleeves shyly to wipe away her tears, held her grandfather's arm, and silently hid behind the old man.
The three exiled families all heard this.
Shen Zhaozhao licked his back teeth. What he said was really very high and mighty!
"You really don't know how to talk." Cao Ya said softly. After saying hello to Shen Zhaozhao and the others, she went back to the Cao family and told Cao Quanye about the matter.
Cao Quanye's old face turned visibly red.
Angry.
He used to be a third-rank official in Beijing. How could he want to discuss things with these volunteers who were so poor that they had to leave their homes?
The Chen family looked at these volunteer volunteers with unfriendly eyes.
After all, those who were here were once prominent families in the capital, but now that they have fallen on hard times, they are being called criminals.
Perhaps Hua'er noticed that the three families' unfriendly gazes were on her, so she turned to look at Wang Tou pitifully.
"Brother Wang, I didn't mean to offend them."
"Grandpa is old, I'm really worried that he won't get enough rest. Please give him a room so that he can have a good night's rest."
Wangtou couldn't bear to see Huaer's tears the most, she was such a filial girl.
"Let me go, I'll go talk to them."
Wang Tou volunteered and came to Shen Zhaozhao and the others, "Everyone, if you have a say in your family, Wang Mou wants to ask for a favor."
Wang Tou said in a loud voice, clasping his fists and bowing to the three families as a courtesy.
The three families were not unreasonable, and each sent someone to talk to Wang Tou.
Without any prior agreement, the head of the family did not show up but sent out the younger generation of the family.
Chen Jun, the head of the Chen family, sent his son, Chen Zhi, the Cao family was Cao Ya, and the Zhan family, Guo Xiao, volunteered to step forward.
Shen Zhaozhao crossed his arms, wanting to hear what this Wang Tou could say.
However, after listening for a long time, the general meaning was still what he and Jiang Hu said, that is, let each of the three families allocate an upper room for the volunteers to live in.
"My grandfather is very old," Chen Zhi said first. "He has a light sleep and it's impossible for him to live with us."
Therefore, the attitude is clear: no.
The Cao family didn't have an old man as an excuse, so Cao Ya smiled and pointed at the young Cao Yue, "My younger brother was bitten by a poisonous snake before, and he is easily startled in the middle of the night. If he lives with others, he will probably cry all night."
"It's okay for a child to cry, but I'm afraid the crying will disturb everyone else's sleep."
Wang Tou finally turned his gaze towards the Zhan family.
Guo 꿻 said in a rough voice, "My family only needs one room upstairs, and we can't spare any. Third brother and the two servants are men, so they can't sleep in a shared bed with us women, right?"
Neat and tidy.
The refusal was blunt.
Wang Tou licked his dry lips. He had been on the road with Jiang Hu so many times, but this was the first time he met such a tough prisoner.
"You..." Wangtou looked at Huaer, who was looking at him expectantly.
He had just solemnly taken charge of the matter, but now these prisoners refused to give him any leniency.
If he fails to handle this matter today, he will have no face in front of Miss Huaer in the future!
"Everyone," Wang Tou's face became gloomy and he was no longer polite, "Today, you all have to give way. If you don't give way, you have to give way!"
"Although I am only an escort, the General Wude stationed in Mobei is my cousin!"
"Everyone, think about this. When you arrive in Mobei, you will be assigned to guard the border or cultivate the land according to the needs of the army. Today you enjoy a moment of happiness, but tomorrow, you may be tired for the rest of your life!"
This is a blatant threat.
If the three families don't give up the upper house, Wangtou will say a few words in front of his cousin.
They are all exiled prisoners, and they have been sent to Mobei. It is still General Wude who has the final say!
"This..." Chen Zhidang couldn't bear it anymore.
"Let me discuss this with my elders." He said, and turned back to discuss it with Chen Jun.
Guo Xiao's face turned ugly. She was so angry. If it were in the past, she would have already pointed at the escort's nose and cursed.
A dog taking advantage of the power of his master!
But now, the Zhan family has fallen, she can vent her anger for a while, but she has to consider the situation of the Zhan family in the future when she leaves Mobei.
My third brother's legs are already disabled. If he offends this man and goes to Mobei, that Lao Shi Wude General will really assign him a job that requires heavy physical labor or risks. How will my third brother survive?
Guo 꿻's face turned pale, and his hands hanging at his sides were clenched and trembling constantly.
Suddenly, she felt someone holding her hand, and the hand holding her was a little cold. This cold feeling dispelled the anger in Guo Xiao's heart.
Reason returns.
"Second sister-in-law of the Zhan family, this matter needs to be discussed with Sister Shen and the others." Seeing Guo Xiao come to his senses, Cao Ya smiled, loosened her grip on Guo Xiao's hand, and patted it gently.
Guo Xiaozhong suddenly had an idea.
Yes!
She was so angry that she lost her mind.
The third brother's wife must have a way!
“Thank you, sister Cao, for the reminder,” Guo 꿻 nodded, glared at Wang Tou hatefully, and quickly turned around to pull Shen Zhaozhao and Lin 꿻.
"Sister-in-law, Third Sister-in-law, what should we do?"
Shen Zhaozhao pointed at the old lady of the Zhan family who had been silent, "Why don't you ask grandma?"
Guo 꿻 hurriedly looked towards Old Madam Zhan.
Madam Zhan waved her hand and said, "I am old, you young people will decide."
Whether she could not swallow this breath or give in temporarily, she did not decide, and let the Zhan family decide for the next generation.
No matter what, she persisted.
Yang Xiao pinched the corner of his clothes angrily, muttering softly, "Well, now any cat or dog can bully our family."
Zhan Zhiyao quickly grabbed Yang 꿻 and comforted her, "Just trust your sister-in-law and the others."
"People in our family must have backbone!" Yang Xiao knew that no one would listen to him, so he could only speak in a low voice.
"Yes, yes, yes," Zhan Zhiyao coaxed Yang 꿻.
Her mother hasn't been making a fuss these days, but her temper is still there. When something happens, she is not as resourceful as the eldest and third sisters-in-law.
껩 is not as brave and responsible as my second sister-in-law.
Zhan Zhiyao was thinking about something and looked at her three sisters-in-law, her eyes revealing longing and curiosity.
She longed to be like her three sisters-in-law, especially the third one.
I'm curious about what decision they will make.
