The whole family traveled through time and became doctors, raised children and farmed in ancient tim

Xie Songlin went back and explained the general situation, and brought all the villagers over to register. Because houses were to be allocated, the regulations required registration based on each household. Households that had not split up would definitely be counted as one household, for example, Uncle Xie's three sons were all counted as one household. However, some families that had split up would also have to live together again, because there were too many refugees, and they had to save the limited resources on hand.

Although Xie Songlin had separated from his family before and should return to Old Lady Shen this time, he still has quite a lot of family members around him, including several boys and his eldest daughter, as well as Xie Ning, Qiuyue and her daughter, Xie Kang, Xie Tai, and so on.

It seems better to separate from Old Lady Shen and the others, and Lai Fu has also told them to take special care of Xie Songlin's family, so Xie Songlin's family is still an independent household.

So all these scattered households combined amounted to about 20 to 30 households. The adults in charge of registration were very efficient. It might also be because Miss Jin's servant Lai Fu was always watching nearby, so the registration went very smoothly and was completed not long after.

Lai Fu said, "Mr. Xie, I won't be seeing you off later. Just follow these guides. They will take you to the Shuwei Village to allocate housing and get food. Everything will be arranged properly. Just follow them without worry."

Xie Songlin quickly responded, "Brother Laifu, thank you so much. This is all thanks to your help. Without you, the registration and resettlement process wouldn't have gone so smoothly."

"Thank you, Mr. Xie. I was just doing what I had to do. Now that the registration is complete, I must hurry back to report to our young lady." Lai Fu bowed. "I wish you a safe journey."

Xie Songlin was driving the carriage in the front. He invited the guide to get on the carriage. Normally, they had to walk and were not given any means of transportation. Now that there was a carriage to ride, he was naturally happy. While expressing his gratitude, he got on the carriage and sat on the other side of the shaft.

Everyone packed their bags, and after everything was ready, they entered the city in an orderly manner with full of expectations.

As soon as we entered the city, the scene was completely different from that outside. Outside the city was the desolation and exhaustion of the refugee journey. Only the porridge stall outside was somewhat lively. But inside the city, it was a bustling scene. Many vendors had set up stalls on both sides of the street, shouting all kinds of food, and the loud shouts were one after another.

The steamer was filled with steam and the aroma of wheat wafted in the air.

"Hot steamed buns, big and white, one will fill you up!"

"Here are the freshly-made buns, with both meat and vegetarian fillings. Come and try some!"

There are also many tea stalls selling tea on the street. There are a few simple but clean tables and chairs in the tea stalls. Many pedestrians will walk into the tea stalls when they are tired and find a place to sit down and rest.

The bustling city scene brightened the eyes of the villagers who had fled all the way. The gloom accumulated in their hearts due to fleeing seemed to be dispelled a lot by the liveliness. They continued to move forward with the team, looking around curiously, their eyes full of novelty and longing for a new life.

The guide started chatting with Xie Songlin not long after they set out on the road. After all, it was still some distance to the Shuwei Village, and it would be boring to stay alone all the time. It was a good opportunity to chat with Xie Songlin to relieve his boredom.

The two of them chatted back and forth, and in a short while, they became as familiar as old friends, and even began to call each other brothers.

As Xie Songlin drove the carriage, he asked, "Brother Xu, how long will it take us to get to Shuwei Village? We're all hoping to get there soon."

Xu Shun said, "If it were just you driving the carriage, then the speed would be quite fast. We would arrive in an hour or two. But most of you will have to walk. They don't have a carriage like you, which can save a lot of energy. If they walk, the speed will naturally be much slower. In addition, there are people of all ages in the team, and they need to rest from time to time. So it will take at least half a day to reach the garrison village."

Xie Songlin asked, "Brother Xu, do you know anything about this garrison village? Please tell me about it."

Xu Shundao said, "Of course I know. I live near this village. This Shuwei Village belongs to King Cheng Ling. It's a village specifically used to house the retired veterans and wounded soldiers from the Cheng Ling Army. You must have heard of the Cheng Ling Army. It's a capable and combat-savvy army that has made great achievements on the battlefield. However, in war, there are bound to be casualties. Those soldiers who are injured and can no longer serve in the army, as well as veterans who have reached the age of retirement, will be resettled in this Shuwei Village.

The village is quite big, and the houses are all built according to a unified plan. Although they are not as big as the mansions in the city, they are comfortable and stable to live in. The atmosphere in the village is also very good. Although the old soldiers and wounded soldiers have left the army, they still have the spirit of a soldier. They are all very united and warm-hearted. If any family has any difficulties on weekdays, everyone will lend a helping hand.

There's no need to worry about safety, as the place is full of soldiers and the security is very good, so once you get there, just live your life in peace."

Xie Songlin was a little surprised when he heard this. Chen Zhifei had indeed arranged a good place for them. Thinking that they could settle down in such a stable and secure place, they seemed to have hope for the future.

Xu Shun continued, "However, in that garrison village, there aren't many people who have established families. After all, most of them are veterans and wounded soldiers who have retired from the Chengling Army. Therefore, most of the people in this village are bachelors, and there are very few complete families. Moreover, most of these retired soldiers are wounded veterans, so girls from outside are basically afraid to marry here."

Xie Songlin frowned and asked, "Are there many wounded soldiers?"

Xu Shun sighed deeply, his expression becoming somewhat serious as he answered, "Indeed, there are quite a few. After all, they are retired from the battlefield. Swords have no eyes, and many soldiers are injured. How many girls from good families are willing to marry these soldiers who have lost limbs? Although the court is kind and will provide them with compensation, life is still difficult. What girl doesn't hope to find a healthy husband who can support a family? These disabled soldiers find it difficult to marry because of their physical condition. Without a woman to take care of the family, life is really a mess. There is no one to do the housework such as washing, cooking, and mending. The house is a mess. There is no one to take good care of the crops in the fields, so the harvest is naturally not very good. As for themselves, they are not in good health and can only make ends meet and get by."
