Travel to the famine year to go to the sea, and become rich with the zombie girlfriend

"Reckless man!"

Xia Qingqing couldn't help but roar in anger, but her heart was still warm. She had never thought that Scar Brother would risk his life to go up the mountain for her.

Did he really think that the bandit's den was also part of Qinghe Town's territory?

"Qingqing, what should we do? Those bandits said they would kill us if they didn't see 10,000 taels of silver within three days." Li Nian said anxiously.

"Are you going up the mountain too?" Xia Qingqing asked.

Li Nian lowered his head and said, "I was worried he might be in danger, so I followed him up the mountain. I didn't expect we would both be captured."

"Originally I wanted to stay as a hostage, but he said he was more valuable."

Xia Qingqing understood, thought for a moment and said, "I will rescue him."

"Then I'll go get the money now. He gave me a letter and told me to go to Shopkeeper Cao and sell my property!"

"Don't go," Xia Qingqing stepped forward and said, "Selling your property won't get you the silver that quickly, and even if you give them the silver, the bandits may not necessarily release you."

"What should I do?" Li Nian's eyes suddenly became empty, and the strength in her body seemed to be suddenly drained away. She collapsed to the ground and began to cry softly.

Xia Qingqing quickly squatted down, took out a handkerchief and gently wiped her tears, saying, "Don't worry, I will rescue him. Don't we still have Su Xi?"

"what's up?"

As soon as Su Xi finished speaking, he hung upside down at the door, which scared Bai Erniang so much that she almost jumped up.

"Miss Suxi, you scared me to death!"

Xia Qingqing said, "It's okay. Come back with me up the mountain to save someone."

"it is good."

After saying that, Su Xi disappeared in a flash. Bai Erniang quickly ran outside, clutching her chest and saying, "This Miss Su Xi is becoming more and more powerful. She appears and disappears unexpectedly."

Li Nian thought of the scene when he first met Su Xi, and hope suddenly rose in his heart. He looked at Xia Qingqing and said, "Yeah!"

Since it was three days, the bandits must have thought that they would go to the mountain to trade on the last day.

Xia Qingqing naturally wouldn't follow their routine, she wanted to go early!

Moreover, it is not certain who is robbing whom in this matter?

As night fell, the people working in the Huo family courtyard left. But the kitchen was still bustling with activity, with smoke rising from the kitchen.

There were two large eight-immortal tables in the west wing. Bai Erniang smiled and brought in plates of freshly cooked dishes and arranged them neatly.

Several candles were lit in the house, making it brightly lit.

Zhu Huifei and Cheng Dazhuang sat in the upper seats surrounded by Xia Lichang, Huo Gang and others. The two young men were instantly flattered and their sitting posture became a little restrained.

Huo Xiaoniu ran over excitedly, holding a jar of wine and said, "Sister-in-law, I got the good wine that Sister Qingyan brought."

"Well, let it go."

As soon as he finished speaking, Huo Gang immediately opened the jar and enthusiastically poured wine for the two of them, and began to introduce the seafood here.

"My two masters, I'm not bragging about the quality of our seafood," Xia Wude picked up a large crab and held it next to his cheek, gesturing, "Look, only we can catch crabs this big here, they're rare elsewhere..."

"Look at our mantis shrimp, they are so long and strong..."

"And these big oysters, plump and juicy, even though I've never eaten such plump ones before..."

……

Several people started chatting lively. Xia Qingqing looked up and saw Li Nian standing outside the yard, staring into the distance in a daze, so she stood up and walked out.

At this time, Sister Taohua had also reconciled the accounts with Huo An, and walked out of the house holding the already asleep Xia Cong.

She saw Xia Qingqing and whispered, "Qingqing, I'm going back first."

"Taohua, you haven't eaten yet. I'll bring you something to eat." Mrs. Ding walked out of the kitchen with her sleeves rolled up, and said, "It's still a little dark at night. I'll ask Huo An to take you home."

"Mr. Xia, let me take it there." said the coachman, Old Song, who was full and had nothing to do.

Xia Qingqing took a look and said, "Thank you for your help, Uncle Song."

The word "Uncle Song" made Old Song feel refreshed. He thought it was a great honor to go out with his boss this time. Not only did he eat such delicious seafood, but he also met villagers who respected him very much.

He was almost reluctant to leave. If Mr. Zhu had not been kind to him in the past, he would have wanted to follow Xia Qingqing.

"Sister Taohua, let Li Nian stay at your house today."

There is really no room at home, and Taohua is a quiet person. It is better for Li Nian to live with her than at Bai Er's mother's house.

"Okay, but my house is a bit simple, Miss Li..." Taohua felt a little embarrassed. After all, no matter how poor Li Nian was, she was still the boss and the eldest daughter. She was different from the village women like them.

"Sister-in-law, it's okay."

After hearing what Xia Qingqing said, Li Nian turned to Sister Taohua and said, "It's okay. I can do anything."

In the end, Old Song drove Zhu Huifei's carriage to send Li Nian, Taohua Sister and others away.

"Brother, come here for a moment."

Huo An was called over by Xia Qingqing, who instructed him, "After Ah Fei and Da Zhuang finish their drinks, you should personally take them to the town to stay at the inn. Don't come back too late. Take them around town tomorrow."

"Don't let them go until I come back. I'll be back in two days at most."

"Go out to sea again after you come back."

After Xia Qingqing finished her instructions, Huo An immediately understood. He asked worriedly, "You're not going to save anyone now, are you?"

Xia Qingqing nodded and said, "By the way, if anyone asks you, just tell them I went to town to discuss a solution with County Magistrate Liang."

After saying this, Xia Qingqing approached Huo An and whispered a few more words to him. Huo An was somewhat shocked and asked doubtfully, "Can County Magistrate Liang trust you?"

"That's up to him. Big brother, just pass on the message."

"Okay, I understand," Huo An agreed immediately.

He now understood Xia Qingqing's character. She was a man of her word. Once she made a decision, no one could change it.

Therefore, as a member of the family, he, as the eldest brother, must appease others to cooperate with Xia Qingqing.

Everyone in the house was drinking enthusiastically. Amid the sound of finger-guessing games, Xia Qingqing quietly led the horse and took Su Xi away from Dayu Village.

Qiongzei Ridge is halfway to Liangzhou City. There are only about twenty people on the mountain with some simple weapons. They specialize in robbing lone merchants and extorting some silver.

There has been no incident of murder so far.

It might be because of Ning Yu that he was able to reach the top of the mountain. Xia Qingqing was also extremely grateful that he was not a bandit.

Two miles away from Qiongzeiling, there is a bandit hill called Ejishan. Dozens of bandits live there, many of whom have committed crimes or escaped.

They are a thousand times more ruthless than those in the Poor Bandits Ridge. It is said that they have skinned people alive...
