Time Travel: Remarrying a Little Wolf Dog

At this moment, Su Yan was like a frightened and helpless little deer, looking at Grandmother He blankly.

Grandma He immediately hugged her distressedly, "My dear, what happened?"

She raised her head and touched Su Yan's little face, "Did An bully you? Tell grandma, grandma will definitely support you!"

Su Yan shook her head subconsciously and sat down under the force of Grandmother He.

With trembling hands, he held Grandma He's hand, and after a while he sorted out his thoughts, he said to Grandma He, "I... I saw a lot of strangers outside today..."

"A few days ago, I saw a particularly scary..."

These words were incoherent. Grandmother He knew that Su Yan was still frightened, so she patted her shoulder without saying a word.

Stay by her side quietly.

Su Yan drank a cup of herbal tea. The cold temperature made her shiver, and then she became much clearer.

She looked at Grandmother He and said, "I saw many people wearing shabby clothes, like they were from other places."

“And there seem to be more and more people.”

"Grandma, do you remember some of the rumors that were spread in the county during the summer harvest?"

"The county magistrate has submitted a report to the court saying that our county has suffered a disaster and requested that this year's taxes be exempted."

"But in the end, because there were so many places affected by the disaster this year, our area was not as severely affected."

“So even if the county magistrate and father-in-law were in charge, it would only reduce the amount by half.”

Grandmother He didn't expect Su Yan to bring this up suddenly. This year's summer harvest was indeed full of twists and turns, but fortunately the final result was good.

And because in the past six months, although the county and the towns under its jurisdiction have not been prosperous, they are much better than last year.

If this trend continues, it can be predicted that next summer's harvest will not be too bad, even if it is not a bumper harvest.

So recently, people in the county feel that the future is promising and they are all very prosperous.

Su Yan suddenly mentioned this at this moment. Grandmother He didn't know why, so she could only say hesitantly, "...I remember..."

Su Yan's eyes suddenly became very complicated, and she was confused and at a loss about the future.

She said, "I guess... the situation outside hasn't gotten any better this year."

"In some places, a large number of people have even begun to flee the famine!"

Grandmother He stood up suddenly and said with a serious face, "...Yanyan, do you know what you are saying? You can't say such things carelessly."

Su Yan: "If possible, I don't want to think about it."

I would rather be a dog in prosperous times than a man in troubled times.

Naturally, heroes emerge in troubled times, but more ordinary people are just weeds in troubled times.

Su Yan had lived so long, and apart from having seen the chaos of wars abroad in short news videos, he had never thought about what would happen if such chaos appeared around him.

Perhaps it was the motherland that gave her enough sense of security, making her feel that no unrest would occur in the country.

So we forget that even though we are on the same land, the dynasty at that time is completely incomparable to our motherland, which is known as the Oriental Lion.

Grandmother He opened her mouth but could not utter a word. She also felt that Su Yan was not the kind of person who would exaggerate.

In fact, after more than a year of getting along, Grandma He knew that Su Yan was not only not an alarmist, but was even quite thoughtful and far-sighted.

Su Yan said this with such certainty at this time, probably because he had verified it personally.

Grandmother He felt a chill down her spine at the thought that what Su Yan said might be true.

She turned around in circles for a few times, anxiously trying to figure out what to do next.

But in fact, she has lived for so many years and has never encountered such a thing.

Compared to Su Yan, who at least had some knowledge, she was completely in the dark.

At this time, his mind was blank, he just turned around mechanically, and his hands were clenched into fists.

Seeing Grandmother He so anxious, Su Yan, who was originally very frightened, completely calmed down.

Thinking of Grandma He’s age, she stepped forward to comfort her, “Grandma, it’s okay, maybe I saw it wrong.”

Grandmother He looked back at her in silence, "Now that you've said it, it shows that you're very sure of it. You should be right."

Su Yan:......

After all, she is old and has gone through a lot, so Grandmother He gradually calmed down.

After thinking about it, she discussed with Su Yan, "We need to let the old man talk to the clan leader and Old Seven about this matter."

"They are the pillars of the clan, and the seventh brother is the chief clerk. Maybe there is some updated news from the county government."

"Even if not, we can at least give him a heads up in advance. He can't wait until the last minute to find out."

Su Yan nodded in agreement. If this was true, it would be something that their family could not resist.

We must rely on the power of the county government.

Grandmother He was recognized and immediately asked the servants to call Grandfather He.

Soon the servant came to report, "The old master is out and not in the house."

Grandmother He stamped her feet anxiously, "I can't find anyone at the critical moment. Where did this damn old man go?"

Su Yan quickly stepped forward to calm Grandmother He, and then turned to ask the servants, "Do you know where Grandfather went? When did he leave?"

The servant was a little frightened when he saw that Grandmother He was very angry. Whatever Su Yan asked him, he answered immediately without reservation.

"The old man left early in the morning and hasn't come back yet."

"I heard from the servants in the mansion that he went to the clan leader's house."

Su Yan turned around and looked at Grandmother He. Grandmother He said, "Since he has gone to the clan leader's house, prepare the car and I will go there too."

It’s a good opportunity for us to talk about it together and see what arrangements the clan leader has.

Their family is also good at reacting.

The servants went down to prepare the car, and Grandma He turned to Su Yan and said, "You don't have to go. Just stay at home with Dudu. I'll go there by myself."

Thinking that she was also frightened today, he comforted her, "Don't be afraid. There are so many of us in the tribe. We have always lived side by side and helped each other. Nothing will happen to us."

Su Yan nodded, helped Grandma He out of the yard, got on the carriage, and then said, "Grandma, please bring two more people with you. Be careful on the road."

She accompanied the man all the way to the gate, and only let the servant close the door after watching the shadow of the ox cart disappear into the distance.

Just as he was about to go back, Su Yan suddenly remembered something and turned around to ask the doorman, "Are you the only one guarding the door here?"

The concierge was somewhat flattered, and quickly took two steps forward and replied, "Usually, the main gate is guarded by me and Old Yang."

Su Yan thought for a moment and asked, "Who among you has a son?"

The concierge was a little confused, but still answered honestly, "I have two sons, and Old Yang has one."

Su Yan: "What are you doing in the mansion?"

The doorman said: "My eldest son is strong and is responsible for chopping wood under the stove. The youngest son is still young and has no job yet."

"Old Yang's son is at the old man's side and takes orders."

Su Yan understood that this gatekeeper probably didn't have any influence, so the eldest son did the hard labor in the kitchen.

The youngest son hasn't found a job yet and is sitting idle at home.

Su Yan asked, "How old is your youngest son?"

"eighteen"

Sure enough, when one is young, he is strong and healthy.

"Let him come over and help you guard the gate. Things are not peaceful recently, so you must keep a close eye on the gate."

"If there is any disturbance nearby, be sure to report it to grandpa and grandma in time."

The concierge opened his mouth, hesitant.

Su Yan knew his concerns and said, "Let your son come and guard the door first. When grandma comes back, I will tell him about this."

The concierge sighed excitedly and said, "I'll ask someone to call him over right away. Thank you, Madam."

"Don't worry, Madam. My youngest son has been very strong since he was young. He will definitely be able to guard the gate and not let any suspicious person set foot into the mansion!"

Su Yan nodded and encouraged him, "If you work hard, the He family will not treat you unfairly."

The concierge nodded repeatedly in agreement.
