A strong farm girl is busy getting rich

Chapter 244 Arriving at Jinyang City

When Xu heard Yingzi's words, she thought it was just an excuse and looked dejected.

At this time, the several officers who were beaten down by Yingzi and the educated youth took a long time to get up from the ground, supporting each other and walking away.

Xu looked at their fleeing backs, smiled bitterly, and said, "I'm sorry, I was abrupt, but I still want to thank you for helping us today."

Seeing her like this, Yingzi felt a little uncomfortable and suggested, "Why don't you just leave here and move to another village. Doesn't everyone in your family know medicine? I'm sure you can survive anywhere!"

Xu sighed and said, "Miss, you don't know that this area of ​​100 miles is all under the jurisdiction of Jinyang City.

The head of our village, Jia Changgui, had a niece who married a high-ranking official in Jinyang City as a concubine. Relying on this relationship, Jia Changgui dared to do whatever he wanted and bully whoever he wanted.

Even if we move to another village, as long as we are under the jurisdiction of Jinyang City, we cannot escape their clutches. If we leave Jinyang City, we have no relatives or friends, so how can we survive?"

The educated youth frowned and asked, "Why are they targeting your family? Have you offended them in any way?"

Xu said angrily: "Jia Changgui has a son who is insane, and he actually wants to find our Xiaoyu to be his daughter-in-law! He said that Xiaoyu has medical skills and can definitely take good care of his son, and he also promised to give a betrothal gift of 100 taels of silver.

But that madman would hit people when he got mad, and sometimes he would get hurt. How could our good daughter agree to such a marriage?

What is a hundred taels? Even if it was a thousand taels, we couldn't let our daughter jump into the fire pit, right? So, our family simply refused. It was because of this matter that Jia Changgui targeted our family everywhere, suppressed us, and left us no way to survive! "

"It's simply too much!"

Yingzi was a person who could not keep her temper. After hearing what Xu said, she became very angry and even wanted to kill Jia Changgui!

The educated youth was calm, but also angry. She knew that as soon as she and Yingzi left, the village chief and the soldiers would soon retaliate.

Moreover, after suffering such a huge loss today, the revenge will be even more severe than before!

She pondered for a moment and said, "How about this, I'll take you to see our girl. Whether or not to take you away from here is up to our girl to decide."

When Xu heard this, her eyes instantly lit up.

"Really? Thank you, ladies. Please take us to meet your girls!"

"But, mother..."

Xiaoyu wanted to say something, but Xu interrupted her and said, "Xiaoyu, your father is seriously injured. Hurry up and help him back to apply medicine and bandage his wound."

She then said to her three sons in a commanding tone, "You three come with me and follow the two girls."

Xiaoyu was also worried about her father's injury. If she delayed any longer, it would get worse. So she had no choice but to listen to her mother and help her father go back first.

The remaining four mother and children followed Yingzi and the educated youth to Shen Qingqian's carriage.

The educated youth got on the carriage first and told Shen Qingqian about the situation.

Shen Qingqian got off the carriage, and Yingzi said to the mother and her two children, "This is my daughter..."

Before Yingzi could finish her words, Xu was about to kneel down again.

Shen Qingqian saw her intention, and quickly held her up, saying, "Don't kneel yet, we have something important to do and need to hurry, so let's cut to the chase and solve the problem first.

I have a general understanding of your family's affairs. I heard that everyone in your family knows medicine, right?"

Xu said hurriedly, "Yes, except for me, the four children and the old man in the family can do it, but I also know medicinal herbs."

Shen Qingqian nodded and said, "Okay, we just happen to need someone with medical skills right now, but we are going to the northern border where there is a war going on, so there will inevitably be danger.

If you are not afraid, your whole family can follow us; but if you don’t dare to go, we won’t force you, but we have to leave quickly and we really can’t help you.”

Mrs. Xu hesitated and looked at her three sons one by one, as if seeking their opinions.

Xu's eldest son looked at Shen Qingqian and asked, "Miss, what you mean is that if we agree to go with you, we can also bring our parents with us, right?"

Shen Qingqian said: "Of course, your family has already offended the bully. If you leave and leave your parents here, won't the problem still be unsolved?"

"Okay, let's go!"

Almost as soon as Shen Qingqian finished speaking, Xu's eldest son made the decision.

Shen Qingqian said, "How about this, I'll give you half an incense stick of time, and your family can discuss it carefully before making a decision.

If you decide to go with us, I will leave two people here to wait for you to pack your things and come to Jinyang City to find us before Yinshi in the afternoon."

Shen Qingqian thought, this time when I went to the North, I brought a lot of medicinal herbs, but there was really no one who knew medical skills. If I took this family with me, they would definitely be able to help.

However, she also needs people with good character and responsibility. If the family just wants to seek help from others without taking risks, she would rather not have them.

So, Shen Qingqian directly told them where they were going and the anticipated dangers, and it was up to them to choose!

In less than half an incense stick of time, the Xu mother and her two children had discussed everything and decided to follow Shen Qingqian and the others.

So Shen Qingqian asked Yingzi and another man under Yang Zhong to stay, while their team left first.

Shen Qingqian and his group arrived in Jinyang City at noon.

From the map, Jinyang City is very large and has convenient geographical location. But once you enter the city, you will feel that it is deserted and not as prosperous as you imagined. It is not even as popular as Jinguan Town.

Shen Qingqian thought of Zhou Qi, and wondered if that arrogant man had entered the city last night?

If I arrived before the city gates closed last night, have I left today?

Just as I was thinking about it, I heard Yang Zhong say outside the carriage: "Miss Shen, let's find a place to eat first?"

"okay."

Shen Qingqian agreed as she got off the carriage.

Since there were many of them, they found a larger restaurant to eat.

However, in the middle of the day, in such a big restaurant, there was not even a single table of guests eating!

After they went in, the originally deserted hall suddenly became lively.

However, the waiter did not show any enthusiasm for hospitality and asked lazily, "What would you like to eat, sir?"

Shen Qingqian couldn't help but frown when she saw this situation. According to her experience, with such a service attitude, the food would not be much better!

So, she said to Yang Zhong, "Brother Yang, how about we go to another restaurant?"
