When Qian's mother learned that bandits had entered Tugang Village, she was really scared.
Their own situation is even worse than that of Butcher Li's family. Butcher Li's four sons are all butchers. Together with Butcher Li, there are a total of 1 person, all strong and healthy.
Even so, the fourth child of Butcher Li was not spared.
My family consists of women and children, and Xingshan is the only one who is strong enough.
But compared with the pig butcher, Qian Xingshan is really incomparable.
At this moment, Qian's mother no longer had any objection to her daughter's decision to move to the provincial capital.
At least the high city walls will isolate these bandits outside the city gates.
Qian's mother was extremely anxious. She hoped to move out as soon as possible, and was even more worried that her daughter would be unhappy in this matter.
At the Zhao family, Zhao Daqing was also awakened by the crying of Li's mother in the morning. He was frightened early in the morning and felt dizzy. Yesterday, his in-laws came, and he went to their house to express his courtesy and drank with them.
He had already learned about the tragic situation that had occurred in Tugang Village this morning from the Li family's cries.
"Old woman, wait for the third brother to come, then we should leave with them." Zhao Daqing made up his mind. In the face of life and death, even the most stubborn person would be afraid of death.
Deep down, Zhao's mother wanted to stay away from the eldest wife's family. Moreover, she heard from the third wife secretly that the second sister-in-law was also planning to go to the provincial capital.
In this way, Zhao's mother was willing to leave. Now that her husband had changed his mind, Zhao's mother was very happy, "Damn it."
"Bang, bang, bang..." The sound of shooting was heard from the gate of the courtyard.
Zhao Daqing and his mother looked at each other and said, "Let's go and have a look. It may be the in-laws who are here."
Zhao Daqing was mentally prepared. Li Cuihong's family was visited by bandits, and the family could not go back for the time being. Since they had come to seek refuge, he should do his duty as a landlord no matter what.
The people who came were Butcher Li and his mother.
As soon as they stepped into the courtyard, Li's mother cried and pulled Zhao's mother's hand, asking her to take her family in.
Zhao's mother was in a dilemma. How could she take him in? She only had one extra bed at home, which she had given to Li Cuihong and her daughter last night.
Now there are more than ten people coming, and if they want to stay, they can only sleep on the floor.
"My dear, please sit down first and don't be anxious." Zhao Daqing tried to comfort the butcher Li and his wife. "Old woman, go get a bowl of hot water."
Upon hearing this, Zhao's mother left the main room, looking down as she walked. She was afraid that the old man would get carried away and agree to something rashly.
"We understand your family's situation. As relatives, we will definitely help if we can." Zhao Daqing stated his position as soon as he opened his mouth.
Butcher Li nodded with a sad face, "I know my relative is a kind-hearted person."
Zhao Daqing laughed when he heard the words. This was the first time someone told him that he was a Turk since his second son passed away.
The villager Zhao Daqing continued, "Don't worry, I'll go out and find the village chief and ask him to help arrange for your family to stay in our village."
This was Zhao Daqing's idea. He knew the number of beds in his own house and Zhao Yongqiang's house, and they definitely could not accommodate Li the Butcher's family of more than a dozen people.
I can only ask the village chief for help. After all, Tugang Village has suffered such a disaster, and it is only natural for villages to help each other.
There was nothing wrong with Zhao Daqing’s approach, but his mistake was that he underestimated the shamelessness and greed of Butcher Li’s family.
Butcher Li looked at Zhao Daqing with an embarrassed look on his face, "My dear, tell me the truth, I don't want to live with anyone else. We came here to live with our daughter."
Li's mother also nodded and said, "It's only natural for us to live with our daughter's in-laws. We have nothing to be afraid of. If you drive us to live with other villagers, wouldn't that embarrass us? Others will think that my daughter Cuihong's in-laws can't tolerate us."
