The arrogant little husband is desperately flirting with the hunter

Because of the epidemic, a deep pit had been dug at the entrance of the village to prevent other people from bringing the disease into the village.

But now we have to guard against bandits, so whether to bury the dike in a deep pit or not becomes a problem.

Although the pit could prevent bandits from entering the village, it also blocked the villagers' chances of escape.

If bandits sneak in from the mountains, they won't be able to get out even if they want to go to the county town to find soldiers.

The men in the village were discussing countermeasures in the threshing ground under the scorching sun, arguing over whether a hole should be filled.

"This hole cannot be filled. If it is filled, it will be like opening the door for bandits to come in."

The person who said this was Lin Ge'er's neighbor, the man who always liked to make trouble for his wife.

As soon as he spoke, some people naturally responded. Most of those who disagreed with filling the hole were villagers at the entrance of the village.

If these bandits came directly from the village entrance, these people would have no chance of survival. They would probably only be able to use their screams to tell the villagers that the bandits were coming.

No one is willing to lead by example.

Of course, they disagreed with filling the pits, but some people thought they should be filled. After all, the village had been sealed off for nearly two months, although the farmers were not worried about food problems.

But I haven't had any meat for such a long time that my mouth is almost dry.

There are indeed many people who want to go out of the village to buy some things. Even if they don’t talk about meat, they still have to buy needles, thread, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar.

As for these people, the one who was shouting the loudest was Zhang Yiming. He was really craving for meat and was almost going crazy. If his mother hadn't been watching closely, he would have slaughtered the half-grown hen at home and eaten the meat.

If you ask whether bandits are scary or not, they are definitely scary. It is said that bandits are brutal and kill people without blinking an eye. They are not comparable to second-rate people like them.

It is indeed chilling to think about the bandits killing people on sight, but there is something even more terrifying, which is that they will never be able to eat a piece of meat until they die. How can they be willing to accept this?

"If you ask me, it's okay if it's not completely filled up. Building a bridge will also make it easier for villagers to enter and exit."

At this moment, the two sides were arguing fiercely. Since Liang Xiaoyan was a woman, it was not convenient for her to get too close to other men in the village. So she stood next to the stone mill in the threshing ground, stroking her belly and shouting in a loud voice.

As soon as she finished shouting, she hurriedly touched her belly, for she was afraid that her voice was too loud and would wake the baby in her belly.

Her voice immediately made everyone who was arguing stop and look at her. Although everyone was a little worried just now, few people noticed that the person Zhang Xiucai came with was actually his new daughter-in-law.

But then he suddenly thought, isn’t there also a black cloth hanging in Mr. Zhang’s house?

Many people actually thought that the scholar had also been infected with the disease, and they even sighed that the Zhang family must have done something wrong.

After all, those who were infected with the disease were all from the Zhang family, especially Zhang Yiju, who was able to pass the examination and become a scholar with the help of almost the entire family.

Even though his reputation is a little bad now and he has been banned from taking the exam for twelve years, how old is Zhang Yiyu? He is only in his early twenties, so it is not too late to take the exam again even after twelve years.

Moreover, even if he no longer took the imperial examination, with the title of scholar, he would never have to worry about food and drink whether he became a teacher or an accountant in a shop.

If the disease really happened, it has to be said that the Zhang family would be very angry. After all, the young man who they had cultivated with such great care to bring honor to the family had died just like that. Wouldn't all their efforts before have been wasted?

Fortunately, the black cloth was hanging, but the person did not really get the disease. As for why everyone was so sure, just look at the actions of Zhang Yiju's new wife. They are all experienced people, so there is nothing they don't know.

It is obvious that she is pregnant, but there is no bulge in her belly, so the baby should be very young.

That's probably what happened when the epidemic first started.

Therefore, if Mr. Zhang really had the disease, he would not have the energy to do such things.

Liang Xiaoyan didn't feel uncomfortable being stared at by a group of men, and she even wanted to show off the baby in her belly.

But they said it was not convenient to tell anyone before March, and now the village was under lockdown, and she hadn't even consulted a doctor, so it was naturally not appropriate for her to show off.

Especially don’t show off to a group of unfamiliar rough guys.

She had to wait until everything was settled before returning to Shangtu Village to make her parents happy.

And those uncles and brothers who said that she could not get married, Liang Xiaoyan not only got herself married, but now she also has a child. In a few months, she will be a mother.

Let’s see who can still laugh at her for not being a woman. Damn, how can a non-woman give birth to a baby?

But the matter of returning to my parents' home has to be put on hold. What we need to solve now is the problem of bandits.

As a child who was born and raised in a bandit's den, Liang Xiaoyan actually has a good understanding of those people's thoughts.

The best strategy is to attack when the enemy is unprepared, so the possibility of those bandits entering the village entrance is not high. After all, such a large group of people are blatantly parading through the streets. Even if the people in Anning Village don’t know, people from other villages may see it.

If anyone went to report to the authorities, they would be surrounded by soldiers before they had even started robbing.

Of course, it’s not just because of this reason. More importantly, the villagers are not all lambs to be slaughtered. They will also fight back.

After all, even a rabbit will bite when it is cornered, so as a human being, you will not just sit there and wait to die.

But once there is resistance, there will be casualties. It is not easy for the bandits to gather hundreds of people, so they will not be willing to enter a village and give away a few heads.

If you keep giving away gifts, won't you end up being left alone?

"The epidemic has been lifted, and the government is definitely looking for these bandits now, so they won't attack the village openly. The most likely scenario is that they sneak down from the mountain in the middle of the night while everyone is asleep."

Liang Xiaoyan felt that she would definitely do the same if she were in the same situation. After all, even if a sleeping person wanted to fight back, it would take time for him to react.

Even if it's just for a moment, it's enough to give someone another stab. After all, the white knife goes in and the red knife comes out in just a moment.

Many people felt that what Liang Xiaoyan said made sense, and Zhang Yiming even clapped his hands.

"Ah, Miss Liang, you are absolutely right. That's what I think. Who dares to steal openly? I read in a book that even during a march or a battle, they would sneak behind the enemy's lines to burn food and grass. So those bandits would definitely sneak in in the middle of the night."

Liang Xiaoyan felt a little surprised when she was suddenly called Miss Liang. After all, she came to Anning Village to marry someone else, so naturally she had to take her husband's surname, the new daughter-in-law of the Zhang family.

Miss Liang, she had to say she quite liked this name, the reason being that her husband was not very interested in her, and rather than being a scholar's wife, it would be better to be Miss Liang.

She subconsciously touched her belly again. It didn't matter whether she was Miss Liang or Zhang's wife. All she wanted was a child. Now that she had a child, she could ignore the annoying person.
