In ancient times, she gave birth to seven daughters and was divorced by her husband's family.
Chapter 107: Liangzhou Prefecture Mutiny, Burning, Killing, Looting, and Rushing to Bai Lu's Ho
"Ah? Why? Are you not going to open the store tomorrow, ma'am?"
Wei Feng was stunned, but he didn't understand why he did this.
Bai Lu smiled and said, "I heard from the village chief that the weather this year is not very good, so it is very likely that the harvest will be average."
"If the harvest fails, food prices will go up. I will ask them to go back and buy some food and store it at home. It won't cost much anyway."
"As for the fields not growing well... that's not good either."
Anyway, the village chief and his family have a lot of money, so they have to save at least ten taels of silver now.
With ten taels of silver, plus she had given them a lot of employee benefits before, they must have enough money to buy food.
Don't worry, just take a day off.
After hearing this, Wei Feng laughed and said, "But Lady Bai, your store is making a lot of money every day, it would be a pity to close it for a day."
"Why not hire some other people to help you with the work and make milk tea for you?"
Bai Lu smiled: "I closed the shop not for any other reason, but mainly because I have things to do."
Breeze was very surprised, "What's the matter, ma'am?"
Bai Lu smiled gently: "I need your help at this time. Please help me move some rice, flour, grain and oil home and put them in the warehouse in the house."
They newly built a large tiled house, and used the last room of the two large tiled houses as a warehouse, which could store at least more than 1000 kilograms of rice, flour and so on.
Bai Lu smiled and said, "We have a large family, so we naturally have a lot to eat. Just bring a few bags of rice and flour first."
There is a lot of rice and flour in her system mall, so she is not short of food, but she can't just take them out directly. It's better to buy them here.
Then I can secretly buy a few bags and put them in there, and no one else will find out.
"OK then."
Weifeng nodded, and together with the eight guards under him, filled the warehouse in Bailu's house.
They bought not just a few bags, but filled an entire warehouse with them, as if they were afraid that Bai Lu would have seven little moons and that the people in Bai Lu's family would not have enough to eat.
Bai Lu who heard the news: "......"
Woo woo woo, it’s all about money.
The price of rice in the system mall is 2 wen per pound, but the price of rice outside has increased in the past two days and is almost 10 wen.
The price is five times different.
But Bai Lu was interested: if she resold the rice, she might be able to make some money...
We’ll talk about it later. My Seven Fairies milk tea shop is still open.
Think about it yourself when you have time.
In the evening, Bai Lu made four simple dishes for them, including stir-fried bean sprouts, cold rapeseed, cumin pork slices, and braised chicken cubes.
After everyone had their fill, they all went to bed.
I don’t know if it’s because there’s no Madam Luo to sleep with her, Bai Lu just sleeps with a few little moons.
Late at night, she had a very terrible nightmare.
She dreamed that Bai Qingze was standing in front of her with blood all over his face, pierced by countless arrows, and looking at her with extremely sad eyes.
It is said that people’s faces are not clear in dreams, but Bai Lu felt that in this dream... Bai Qingze’s face was very clear.
"younger sister......"
"...my sister."
"I'm afraid my brother can't accompany you on your last journey."
After saying this, he fell to the ground and no longer breathed.
"!!!!!!"
After Bai Lu had this dream, she woke up in fright.
"..."
When she woke up, it was only midnight and it was still dark.
But no matter what, she couldn't sleep.
Bai Lu blinked her eyes, feeling that something was not right. Why did she suddenly dream about Bai Qingze? !
Bai Lu frowned, her heart pounding, and she felt a little flustered.
She put on a coat and walked out into the yard, looking at the moonlight outside. The round moon hung high in the sky, looking perfect, without any flaws at all.
It's just that the wind at night is a little cool.
Bai Lu frowned and comforted herself...maybe she was overthinking it.
Just at this moment, there was some noise outside the yard.
"who is it?!"
Bai Lu immediately looked outside vigilantly.
After a while, the lazy sound of the breeze could be heard.
"It's me, White Lady."
"What's going on? Why aren't you sleeping yet?"
He rubbed his eyes, looking a little tired.
Bai Lu was stunned.
"…What are you doing? Breeze."
He smiled and said, "The Master ordered us to protect you. We stayed up all night to watch over the yard."
They all take turns, basically one person is on duty for one hour or two hours, so it doesn't really affect their rest.
Today is Breeze's turn.
Originally they thought they were making a big fuss about nothing, but Weifeng and the others thought that since Bai Lu was most likely Gu Liang's biological sister, it would be better to be cautious.
Gu Liang has been waiting for this younger sister for many years.
After Gu Liang's elder and second brothers get the news from Kyoto and send people over, or they come in person, they can then withdraw the people.
"I see!"
Bai Lu nodded and smiled at him, "Master Breeze, you and the guards have worked hard. I will cook some eggs for you tomorrow. Enjoy!"
"Okay, thank you, Lady White."
Wei Feng smiled and said, "White Lady, go back to sleep."
Bai Lu didn't go back.
She looked at Wei Feng, hesitated for a while, and finally asked her doubts, "I wonder...what is Mr. Bai doing recently?"
"I'm always a little worried about him."
"I just happened to dream about him today... I had a very long nightmare, his face was covered in blood..."
"Oh well, White Lady, you are worrying too much."
Wei Feng smiled and said, "Why do you think so much? Our young master is now investigating the rebels in Liangzhou Prefecture. He is the most auspicious person!"
"And whoever dares to shoot him is none other than the rebels..."
At this point, the voice suddenly stopped.
Damn, that's right! Only the rebels dare to shoot the young master!
Oh, how could it be such a coincidence that the Master was investigating the rebels in Liangzhou Prefecture and Bai Lu had this dream? ?
Moreover, when I went to see the young master before, I found that he was injured.
The rebels have indeed been rampant recently, and the young master and his men have killed several waves of them...
If Bai Lu is really Bai Qingze's sister, then wouldn't they be in perfect sync? Is the young master in danger tonight? !
Oh my God, Weifeng's expression changed suddenly and he immediately became agitated.
Seeing Weifeng's expression changed, Bailu's expression also changed.
She understood why Breeze's expression changed... She quickly asked, "Is my brother in danger?!"
Breeze nodded and said quickly, "Lady White, I'm afraid we can't accompany you."
"If you are in danger, we will not be at ease on your side, so we will leave six guards for you."
"I'll take two guards to Liangzhou Prefecture to see how the young master is doing. Can you help me?"
Bai Lu said quickly: "Of course it can be done, you guys go to Liangzhou Prefecture and take a look!"
"Yes!"
Wei Feng nodded immediately, his eyes as dark as ink, and he took his men to rush to Liangzhou Prefecture overnight.
They even used the fastest speed of their lives, using their lightness skills to climb walls and fly over rooftops. It should take less than a night... to reach Liangzhou Prefecture.
That's it, it's very depleting.
I don’t know if they will still have the strength when they arrive in Liangzhou Prefecture.
If the young master was really in danger, none of them would be able to come back alive...but Bai Lu didn't know all this.
She took a deep breath and felt the night wind was very cool.
This day, it seemed, was about to change.
On the second day, the atmosphere in Lotus Town was normal.
Liangzhou Prefecture is quite far away from Lianhua Town, and even quite far away from Huai County.
If there is any unusual movement in Huai County, then it will be Lianhua Town.
But Bai Lu thought again, what if something happened to Bai Qingze because of the rebels...what to do.
She was also restless. Bai Lu was on holiday today, so she simply called Gu Liang and Zhao Cuicui over.
He also sent Grandpa Li to find Madam Luo and Shen Congyun next door, and asked them to be careful in the near future and not to get into conflicts with any strange people.
"..."
Her expression was serious and she didn't look happy.
This immediately made Leng Bingnian feel that something was wrong.
He glanced at Bai Lu, seeming to want to say something, and finally thought about it... and still said nothing.
White Snake is so smart, if anything happens, she can handle it by herself. If a child like her speaks, she will probably have to take care of her own emotions.
So Leng Bingnian continued to practice martial arts, but he worked harder.
Gu Liang and Zhao Cuicui were both called to their house, and they were very curious: "What happened?"
"White lady."
Gu Liang was supposed to go to study today, but when he saw Bai Lu called him back... he felt a little strange.
Bai Lu patted Gu Liang and Zhao Cuicui on the shoulders and said to them seriously, "You two should keep busy with me for a while. There are a lot of things to do in the Seven Fairies Milk Tea Shop."
She did not tell them that there might be rebels in Liangzhou Prefecture.
This is the main thing that may cause panic.
Well, if that's the case, asking them to follow me and take care of the Seven Fairies Milk Tea Shop's business would be a good excuse.
Perfect for avoiding the outside world.
If there really is trouble outside, they are all safe.
When Gu Liang and Zhao Cuicui heard this, they nodded without even a hint of dissatisfaction.
They all smiled and said, “Okay.”
"In that case, we will help you!"
"If there's anything we can do to help you, you can always tell us."
"Yesterday, I saw Weifeng leading people to move rice and flour... I don't know if they have finished moving. Do you still need us to help you move?!"
Bai Lu smiled and said, "Of course it is necessary."
If they were just moving rice and flour, they would have finished it long ago. All that rice, flour, grain and oil would be enough for their family to eat in the mansion for half a year.
But Bai Lu thought about it carefully. She had not slept the whole night since she had a nightmare yesterday. She kept her eyes open until dawn and felt a little panic in her heart.
So, it’s better to buy more things.
"Buy some pickled vegetables and bacon and put them in our house."
"We don't lack chickens, ducks, and fish... Why don't we dig a cellar at home? Then, we can put some things in the cellar."
"Let's buy some fresh meat and dry it into jerky. We need it in the winter anyway."
Hearing Bai Lu say this, they nodded and agreed.
So Gu Liang brought people to help dig a cellar for Bai Lu.
Zhao Cuicui helped to buy several large jars of things, including pickles, bacon, wine, fish, smoked chicken, smoked duck, smoked goose, and even dozens of kilograms of pork ribs...all kinds of meat were bought, and some other juicy vegetables were also bought.
Since we need to buy meat during Bailu, if we have a cellar, we can store these things, and we can also use jars to pickle pickles.
Zhao Cuicui plans to help Bai Lu pickle some vegetables.
"..."
These days, the Seven Fairies Milk Tea Shop has not been open.
After they dug the cellar, Bai Lu lied that she was sick and very sick, so she just lay down at home.
Gu Liang and Zhao Cuicui were obviously frightened, so they went over to help look after the children.
The village chief and his wife originally wanted to come back to help, but when they saw Bai Lu was so sick, why would she make milk tea?!
In addition, they had not finished preparing rice, flour and other things, so they all went back to prepare food.
This did not arouse anyone's suspicion.
After a few days, suddenly, a piece of bad news came from Lianhua Town - Liangzhou Prefecture had rebelled.
Although the rebels will not burn, kill and loot here, the entire Liangzhou Prefecture, including Yongping County, Xingshan County, Xingshan Town... and Lianhua Town in Huai County where Bai Lu is located, are about to face war.
What's more, if Liangzhou Prefecture rebelled, they would definitely have to pay money to Liangzhou Prefecture to help them march and fight.
Otherwise, where would the food and weapons come from? !
Even if those who rebelled were prepared... they would still have to snatch these silver and food from the people under the Liangzhou Prefecture.
Taking this opportunity, the soldiers would naturally burn, kill and loot.
It was not as serious as the obvious burning, killing and looting, but many young girls were harmed, and even the homes of some wealthy merchants were looted.
Obviously, once this news reached Huai County, the rebels would come to their Lianhua Town within two days.
Moreover, he went straight to the home of Bai Lu, a wealthy family in Lianhua Town.
When Bai Lu and the others heard the news, it was naturally bad news.
