Chapter 56 Settled in Changning Village
As for going into the city for a stroll, Ye Shian didn't even ask. At this time, no city would allow the disaster-stricken people to enter.
Ye Shian and his companions did not dare to delay and drove the ox cart towards Wuyang County.
Even so, by the time they arrived in Wuyang County, the sun had already set.
A large number of people were resting outside Wuyang County, so they could only find a place with few people to spend the night.
The next morning, the magistrate of Wuyang County came. The sun was not very hot in the morning, but the magistrate was already panting. He was as fat as a ball. Ye Shian was really afraid that he would die from the heat.
There was a fair-skinned and beautiful woman beside him. The woman was fanning the county magistrate with a folding fan. The county magistrate didn't care whether there was any wind or not.
"Ah, this county has really been working very hard for these unruly people. Master, have the village heads arrived?"
The master behind him quickly replied: "They are here, they are all here. The heads of the seven villages are here, waiting for your instructions, sir."
The county magistrate pointed at the people waiting nearby and said, "Take them away, all of them."
At this time, the woman next to the county magistrate whispered a few words in his ear, and the county magistrate patted the woman's hand regardless of the presence of outsiders.
"Don't worry, we'll go back now."
"Master, I'll leave this to you. I'm going back to handle official business first."
The master and the village head hurriedly bowed and said, "Farewell, sir."
As soon as the county magistrate left, the lawyer straightened his back immediately: "Come here, distribute these people to the various villages and let the village heads take them back."
After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and left.
Ye Shian, his mother, and Yinzhu were assigned to Changning Village. The head of Changning Village was Li Huaigang, who was about 40 years old and looked kind.
I saw that all the people in their group were women, and they had a child with them, and they took good care of them.
There were only four families who followed the head of the village back to Changning Village. Yu Xiuying announced to others that Yinzhu was her goddaughter, so naturally she was from the same family as them.
Seeing that they were all women in the family and that they could come from such a far place driving a ox cart, I couldn't help but look up to them.
You have to know that they had to trade their children for food along the way, but they were dressed cleanly and their faces didn't seem haggard. At least compared with others, they didn't look so miserable. This is not something that ordinary people can do.
"There are only two abandoned houses available in Changning Village. You can decide who will live there. As for the other two families, you can choose two plots of land to build new houses."
Wang Gang frowned and said, "Then we can't live here until the housing site is built."
Wang Gang's family consists of five people, including him, his wife, two sons and a daughter. The three children are about the same age as Ye Shian.
The head of the village had already made up his mind: "The other two households can stay in other people's houses. But they can only stay for a short period of time. They can't stay for too long."
Ye Shian wanted a big house, and the abandoned house shouldn't be too big, so she simply gave up: "Village head, I am willing to live in another house. I hope you can help me find a family when the time comes. We are willing to pay the rent. As for the two houses, let them choose."
As for the other three families, none of them offered to give in until they saw the abandoned house. Wang Gang was willing to stay in a villager's house first, and then rebuild the house on the designated residential land.
After arranging the rest of the people, the head of the village led Ye Shian and his mother to the west end of the village.
"Zhen Niang is out. Someone is coming to the house."
The village head started shouting at the top of his lungs before he even entered the yard. Xu Zhenniang hurried outside when she heard the village head's voice.
"Why are you here, Li Zheng?"
The village head pointed at Yu Xiuying behind him and said, "Isn't your father-in-law's house empty? It's a good place to rent it to them."
Xu Zhenniang looked at them, and when she saw the big yellow cow, she couldn't help but look at it twice more. She knew that a group of refugees would come to the village, but shouldn't refugees be ragged and skinny? But looking at the women in front of her, their clothes were clean, without even a patch, and their faces didn't look like they had been hungry.
Especially the baby in the girl's arms, who was white and plump. Even in the village, it was rare to see such a well-fed child.
Seeing her in a daze, the village head urged her unhappily: "Hey, why are you standing there? Hurry up and take someone over."
Xu Zhenniang smiled sheepishly and hurried out to the right courtyard: "This courtyard has been vacant for some time. If you don't mind, you can live here first."
Yu Xiuying smiled and said, "We are very grateful that we can stay here temporarily."
"I'm glad you don't mind." The yard is not big, but it is kept tidy. There is just dust on the tables, chairs and benches, but they only need a simple cleaning before you can move in.
"My name is Xu Zhenniang. You can use anything in this yard." Xu Zhenniang introduced herself to Ye Shian and others with a smile.
Yu Xiuying also quickly introduced herself: "Zhenniang, my name is Yu Xiuying, this is my daughter Ye Shian, and my goddaughter Yinzhu."
While Ye Shian, his mother and his two daughters were looking around the yard, the head of the village pulled Xu Zhenniang aside.
"They are only living here temporarily. Tomorrow they will go and look for a residential plot and start construction once they find one. They won't live here for many days. As for the rent, we will all be in the same village, so just charge less."
Xu Zhenniang responded, "Hey, this house is just sitting there, so they can live here. They don't have to pay rent or anything like that."
Ye Shian walked out of the house and continued, "We have to pay the rent. Aunt Xu, please charge us a little so that we can live here with peace of mind."
The head of the village also agreed with Ye Shian: "Yes, you can collect a little to supplement the family income."
Xu Zhenniang was a little embarrassed: "This, this is not good. We will meet each other every day in the future. I have collected the money today, but how can I have the face to talk to you tomorrow?"
Yu Xiuying and Yinzhu also came out of the house: "Zhen Niang, right? I am older than you, so I am honored to call you Zhen Niang. You have to accept the money. If you don't accept it, it will not be good for us to stay here for free."
The village head responded: "Collect, collect."
Seeing that everyone agreed, Xu Zhenniang had no choice but to nod and said, "Okay, I'll take it. I won't charge you by month or day. You can give me 20 cents in total and stay as long as you like."
Twenty cents. A meat bun costs two cents. Twenty cents is really cheap for rent, even if you live in a thatched hut like this.
Seeing Xu Zhenniang symbolically accepting the twenty coins, the village head knew that she had good intentions: "Zhenniang, you have helped the village. Come back to my house to get some food."
Xu Zhenniang's heart was filled with gratitude. She had a hard life as a woman raising a daughter, and the villagers often bullied her because she was an orphan and a widow.
Now that Ye Shian has been arranged to live in her house, it is also a disguised way of helping her. How could he take the grain from the head of the village?
But she kept thanking him, and she would not take the food: "Thank you, Li Zheng, thank you, Li Zheng."
