Chapter 29 Arrival at Yingcheng
"Here are two taels of silver, keep it." After calculating the bill, Shopkeeper Li handed the two taels of silver to Sui He and said, "We agreed, remember to send it to me when you have it."
Suihe took the silver. She knew that vegetables were valuable now, but she never thought they were so valuable. Such a small amount was sold for thousands of dollars?
Sui He happily counted the silver in his hand, thinking about what he could buy to sneak into the space.
Shopkeeper Li looked at the money-obsessed young man in front of him, his eyes flickered, greed is good
Sui He carefully put the silver into his arms and said, "Manager Li, I won't bother you anymore. I have to go back, otherwise my family will be worried."
After saying hello to Shopkeeper Li, she left and returned to the market nervously. She found that Second Mistress was still shopping and did not notice that she had left secretly, so she felt relieved.
Farmers are more frugal, because they can haggle with the boss for a long time over a few coins. There is already some food and daily necessities piled up at the feet of the second grandmother.
"Grandma, haven't you finished choosing yet?" Sui He stepped forward and patted Second Grandma's shoulder.
Second Grandma looked back and saw that it was Sui He. She thought Sui He was getting impatient because he had been waiting for too long, so she comforted him and turned around to continue bargaining with the vendor: "It will be a while. Please wait a little longer. I will finish my shopping soon. Why are you so stubborn? I have already bought so much. Can you give me a few cents off?"
"Grandma, you buy it first. I'll go to the front to take a look." Second Grandma was busy bargaining with the vendor. She didn't hear what Sui He said at all. She waved her hand and ignored Sui He.
Seeing that Second Grandma agreed, Sui He walked towards the market, strolling around. The steamed buns at this shop smelled good, so he bought two. The pancakes at that shop also smelled good, so he bought some.
Suihe was having a great time strolling around the market. She wanted to buy everything she saw. She put everything she bought into her space under the cover of her backpack. She had money anyway, so she bought more and stockpiled them.
"Sui Sui" Sui He, who was still shopping, heard someone calling her. It turned out to be Second Grandma and the others who had already bought what they needed. She stood up and found that Sui He was not around. She started looking for her. Fortunately, Sui He had not gone far. She went back immediately after hearing the call.
"Sui Sui, we have already bought it. Let's go quickly and meet up with Linjia Village." Seeing Sui He coming, Second Grandma put on her backpack and called for Sui He to follow.
When I was almost at the city gate, I found that my grandfather was already there. It turned out that my second grandfather had gone with Father Lin to buy other things.
Seeing Second Grandma and Sui He came forward and took the basket from Second Grandma's back, he handed them an oil-paper bag.
"We have traveled for such a long time and there is nothing delicious on the road. You and your grandmother can each have one of these white flour cakes. Eat them quickly so that we can continue our journey and reach Yingcheng as soon as possible." The second grandfather carried a basket on his back.
Second Grandma took the oil paper package, opened it and saw that there were indeed two yellowish white flour cakes inside. She took out one and handed it to Sui He, then divided the other into two and handed half of it to Second Grandpa.
"Oh, you're eating white flour cakes. Tsk, they're bought with my money, so you don't have to worry about getting a stomachache after eating them." Sui He, who was still eating cakes, heard such a spoiling remark and immediately rolled his eyes at Huang Cui Hua.
"If you can't speak, just shut up"
"Why, after eating my white flour cake, you won't let me say a word?" Huang Cuihua was not afraid of Sui He at all: "You are a kid who hasn't even grown all his hair yet, and you don't know how to respect the elderly and love the young at all."
"Respecting the elderly depends on whether the person is worthy of my respect. Tell me, are you worthy?" Sui He didn't want to pay attention to her. The more she paid attention to this kind of person, the more excited she became. After she finished her argument, she walked aside.
"You little brat, is this how your family taught you? I'm going to teach you a lesson today." After saying that, Huang Cuihua rolled up her sleeves and was about to step forward.
"Huang Cuihua, can you please stop?" Seeing that Huang Cuihua was about to pinch Suihe, Father Lin stopped her and said, "What others eat is none of your business."
After Old Man Lin said this, Huang Cuihua didn't dare to do anything else and could only glare at Sui He fiercely.
Sui He ignored her and turned away
After dinner, the people of Linjia Village set off in a hurry.
Suihe and his family followed them closely. The further they went towards Yingcheng, the fewer refugees they met on the road. There were no more refugees than when they first came out. They must have dispersed to other places. The mountains and forests on both sides were also greener, and the grass on the ground was no longer withered and yellow.
The small river beside the road is no longer dry, but unfortunately there are no edible wild vegetables along the river or road. Sometimes it takes a long time to find a little edible wild vegetable.
The refugees passing by and the people in the surrounding villages must have dug up all the dirt. Fortunately, they had food and water in the creek, so they were not as desperate as they were at the beginning.
After half a month of traveling day and night, everyone was getting closer and closer to Yingcheng. The closer they were to Yingcheng, the more refugees began to arrive. These refugees must have gathered here from other places. Suihe was not the only village in the north that suffered from the disaster.
Not long after, Sui He saw the tall city walls of Yingcheng. The city gates were wide open, and there were not many refugees lingering around.
There were two tables at the city gate, two officials were recording something, in front of the tables there was a long queue, some people were holding a piece of paper and discussing something.
Sui He took the opportunity to inquire about the situation. Yingcheng can now accept refugees. They can register with the government office with their household registration, and the government will assign them to live in some sparsely populated villages. They can also be allocated some mountain land, but they have to cultivate the land themselves.
It is more troublesome for those without household registration. They are afraid that spies from other countries may sneak in. Those without household registration must be interrogated before they can be assigned to the village. Not only that, those without household registration must live in the village for a period of time to make sure there are no problems before they can be registered. Otherwise, they will be unregistered for the rest of their lives.
After Sui He told everyone what he had heard, everyone started talking about it.
"Brother Chen, we are now in Yingcheng. I wonder what your plans are. Is there any place you want to go?" Father Lin came up to Master Chen.
"I don't have any plans. As long as I can be with my wife and Sui Sui, I can go anywhere."
"In that case, why don't you come with us? We all know each other well, and living together will help you take care of each other," said Old Man Lin, persuading Master Chen to go with him.
Master Chen thought about it, then nodded and agreed. He briefly talked to Second Mistress and Sui He, and they had no objections either.
Seeing Master Chen nod, Old Man Lin said no more and walked towards the registration official to explain his purpose. The registration official glanced at them, handed Old Man Lin a piece of paper, and sent them to the government office to register.
It's still early now, go early, maybe you can be assigned to a good village. Even though they are all villages, there are differences in rich and poor villages.
