The couple in the last days traveled to ancient times, farming and storing grain and meat in the war

Nearly two hundred taels of silver?

Jiang Facai finally understood why his parents settled in Zaoshu Village and had the money to buy so much land at that time. It turned out that the money was left by Jiang Shengcai's biological parents.

Jiang Facai deliberately said, "No way, my second brother is my parents' biological child. You are talking about nearly 200 taels of silver. You were all fleeing from famine at the time, how could you have so much money? Don't lie to me."

"Why don't you believe it, kid?" Grandpa Jiang and his family were all simple people, and they immediately became anxious. "It's true, Shengcai is really your cousin, not your second brother. How could he be your parents' biological son?"

We are farmers and we are fleeing famine, so we don’t have that much money.

But your uncle and aunt really do have it.

Because your uncle and aunt are capable, they worked as long-term workers for a wealthy family in our town for several years. Moreover, your uncle once saved the young master of that wealthy family by pulling him out of the lotus pond. He himself almost drowned in the lotus pond. In order to thank him, the master of the wealthy family gave him two hundred taels of silver.

At that time, they also gave him many other gifts. Later, they fell ill and spent some money. Otherwise, there would be more than two hundred taels of savings."

Jiang Facai felt a little jealous. Why were other people's parents so capable? Although his parents bought some land, it was not their own money, but actually belonged to Jiang Shengcai's biological parents.

No wonder his parents have always been mean to Jiang Shengcai.

It turns out that he is not his biological son at all, and is not his second brother at all.

He finally understood it all.

In fact, he and his elder brother Jiang Changcai were also quite strange at the beginning. Why were they both biological children, but their parents only liked them and didn't like the second son at all? So that's how it was.

Jiang Facai still didn't say his parents were dead. Instead, he said with a smile, "I'm sorry, you guys just said it. We can't believe it right away. I have to go back and ask my parents."

Jiang Dayong was stunned. What was his father talking about? Didn't his grandparents die long ago? Should he go to the underworld to ask?

Jiang Dayong was about to speak, but Jiang Facai glared at him, and Jiang Dayong didn't dare to speak.

Grandpa Jiang and his men were truly honest people. When they heard what Jiang Facai said, they all nodded: "Okay, go back and ask, we'll wait for you here. By the way, child, where is your home?"

But Jiang Facai had already pulled Jiang Dayong away.

Grandpa Jiang Er and the others were naturally helpless, but they were all puzzled: "How did Shengcai become the biological son of Yin Gen and his wife?"

Someone in the clan laughed and said, "This is not bad at all. It shows that they have really treated Shengcai as their own son for so many years."

When everyone heard this, they became happy again: "That's great, that's great."

Some people were even happy: "This is really great. We were just talking about Yingen and his friends this morning, and we ran into their son in the afternoon."

Jiang Dayong, who had walked away, finally couldn't help but ask, "Dad, why didn't you tell me that grandpa and grandma were dead? And why didn't you tell me where our home is now?"

"Why are you saying this? Do you want them to come after us too?" Jiang Facai said unhappily.

He added, “They have explained it so clearly. Your grandparents took the money on the condition that they take good care of your second uncle… no, your cousin Jiang Shengcai.

But over the years, have your grandparents taken good care of Jiang Shengcai?

No!

If they knew where we lived, they would definitely find our village and Jiang Shengcai, who would know everything. How could they let us go?

Jiang Shengcai might even dig up your grandparents’ graves!

Furthermore, the land we have now was left by your grandparents. They must have been bought with the money left by Jiang Shengcai’s biological parents. As long as they have evidence, they can be recovered. How are we going to survive then?

Besides, Xiao Yan is the county magistrate now. Whether there is evidence or not is just a matter of his words, right?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Dayong also became anxious: "What should we do then?"

Jiang Facai was also very annoyed, but he finally came up with an idea:

"They have already fled to Dengping County and will definitely not return to the north for a while. Moreover, Xiao Yan is the county magistrate. Even if those people can't see Jiang Shengcai, they will definitely see Xiao Yan who always comes to the porridge shed to accommodate them. As time goes by, they will definitely find out about this sooner or later.

So we have to sell the land quickly and escape from here.

Otherwise we will be left with nothing and won’t be able to survive.

Didn’t your cousin Shen Chunhua sell her land and run away? She hasn’t been caught by the government yet, so the possibility of her being caught by the government in the future is very small.

Besides, we didn’t kill anyone. We just sold the land and ran away. It’s not a serious crime, and we certainly won’t be arrested by having our portraits posted everywhere.

In addition, there are people fleeing famine everywhere now. We can pretend to be refugees and blend in with them, which will naturally make it easier for us to settle down somewhere else.

There is really no other way now, otherwise I still don’t want to leave this village.”

Who doesn’t want to live a stable life in one place and choose to flee?

Jiang Dayong also knew that there was no other way, so he naturally agreed to the escape plan immediately.

They also urged Jiang Facai to sell the land today so that they could run away tonight.

Otherwise he would feel uneasy.

I'm afraid that the night will be long and full of dreams, and something unexpected may happen, and then I won't be able to escape even if I want to.

This was also what Jiang Facai meant. Naturally, he didn't want the materials for building the house anymore. He hurried back to get the land deeds and wanted to sell the land.

Naturally, I told my family about this and asked them to pack their luggage secretly.

Although Jiang Dayong’s wife, Ma Xiaoxia, does not want to leave Dengping County, her parents’ home is also in Dengping County. If she leaves, will she be able to see her family in the future?

But she had already married Jiang Dayong and was a member of his husband's family. Jiang Dayong was leaving, and the land could definitely be sold for a lot of money, so she naturally packed her luggage and left with Jiang Dayong and the others.

Not to mention Jiang Eryong and Jiang Xiaoyong. When they heard what their father Jiang Facai said, they immediately put down the work in their hands and secretly packed up their things.

Jiang Facai's wife, Li, was paralyzed and knew about this, but because her mouth was blocked, she couldn't curse even if she wanted to.

When Jiang Facai and Jiang Dayong came back after selling their land, it was already dark.

After a hearty dinner, the whole family packed up their belongings and left while everyone in the village was asleep.

Jiang Facai originally didn't want to take Li, a burden, with him, but then he thought that if he ignored Li, no matter whether his sons hated Li now or not, what would he do if his sons followed his example in the future?

He can still do it now, but sooner or later he will be too old to move.

In the end, he decided to set an example for his sons and brought Li along.

At first, because they were in the village and were afraid of making any noise, two people carried Li until they carried her out of the village, where they hid a wheelbarrow.
