The end of natural disasters: the daily life of child brides in ancient times

When Lu Qingqing came to the kitchen, Dazhuang was washing vegetables with his sleeves rolled up.

Seeing her coming, a smile appeared on his little face.

He said something to Aunt Zhang and ran out quickly.

Aunt Zhang was looking at the two of them with a smile from behind. It was probably this girl who gave Dazhuang the white flour buns yesterday.

Both of these children are good. Dazhuang is blessed to have such a sister!

Seeing Aunt Zhang looking at her with a smile, Lu Qingqing also smiled and greeted her before leaving with her brother.

As usual, the two of them went to the same corner as yesterday.

As soon as he stopped, Dazhuang quickly told everything that Boss Lu had told him that morning.

When Lu Qingqing heard that Boss Lu wanted her to help him, she was speechless.

This person really doesn't change his bad habits and just wants to take advantage of others.

He really dares to think!

Humph! If he wants to take advantage of me, then I'll see if he has the ability to do so.

Seeing that the elder sister had a cold face and didn't say anything, Dazhuang hurriedly comforted her:

"Don't be afraid, sis. I will try my best to stop Dad.

By the way, Dad is particularly afraid of the old village chief and Uncle Tianming.

If he comes to trouble you, I will secretly go to them and take care of it for you!"

Seeing that he had a stern face and was speaking seriously, Lu Qingqing couldn't help but laugh.

She pinched Dazhuang's little face, which had no flesh on it, and said with a smile:

"Okay, my little man, come and eat some food first. Only when he grows up can he protect his big sister."

As he spoke, he pulled Da Zhuang to sit cross-legged and took out the big steamed buns, white flour buns and stir-fried rabbit meat cubes from his bag.

Every time she picked up something, Dazhuang's mouth opened wider.

When all the things were taken out, Dazhuang's little mouth had opened into an O shape.

Da Zhuang smelled the aroma of meat and couldn't stop swallowing his saliva.

"Big sister, I can't finish this much, you should eat some too."

"You eat. I came here after I ate."

Lu Qingqing said as she stuffed the big bun into his hand.

Seeing that his elder sister was serious, Da Zhuang picked up the bun and took a big bite.

The soft dough contains a large amount of meat filling, which tastes delicious!

Lu Qingqing stood by and watched Dazhuang wolf down a big bun, and told him to eat slowly.

Da Zhuang smiled embarrassedly and slowed down his eating.

After dinner, the brother and sister chatted briefly and then went their separate ways.

Da Zhuang held the things in his arms, dodged people along the way, and quickly ran back to the kitchen.

Aunt Zhang was busy, and when she saw him come back she greeted him with a smile.

"Da Zhuang, why are you back so soon?

There's nothing to do at the stove, so you can chat with your sister for a while."

"Aunt Zhang, I have something delicious here, come and try it."

Da Zhuang said this and took out the bag of diced rabbit meat.

Aunt Zhang looked at the juicy diced rabbit meat, swallowed her saliva, and said politely:

"Da Zhuang, keep this good stuff for yourself, you're still growing!"

Dazhuang took Aunt Zhang's hand and said sincerely:

"Aunt Zhang, I'm in the kitchen, thanks to you for taking care of me.

I really treat you as my own elder. If you don’t eat, I will feel very sad. "

Aunt Zhang touched Dazhuang's head and liked him more and more the more she looked at him.

"Good boy, Aunt Zhang also loves you.

Oh, I wish my children were like you."

Da Zhuang felt that Aunt Zhang was sad and silently put his arm around her.

Aunt Zhang sighed, looked at Dazhuang, and said seriously:

"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. Dazhuang, if you don't mind, I will recognize you as my godson from now on, and you can call me godmother, how about that?"

Dazhuang looked at Aunt Zhang with a loving face, and then thought about his own mother who abandoned him for his cousin. He felt indescribable in his heart.

"Godmother!"

"Ai!"

Aunt Zhang looked at the well-behaved Da Zhuang and took him into her arms.

After this incident, the relationship between the two became closer.

..........

Three days later.

Lu Qingqing and Qin Lang were sitting on the deck to rest when they felt the ship slowly stop.

The two of them went to the side of the boat and saw a water checkpoint ahead.

The dock patrol raised a flag to stop the ship for inspection.

Looking at the team of soldiers armed with long swords at the dock, Lu Qingqing became nervous unconsciously.

As the ship docked, Hu Laosan, the captain, took out a document and got off the ship.

The officer at the dock took the document with a stern face and said something.

Hu Laosan apologized with a smile and stuffed a purse into the hand of the officer.

The officer took the purse and weighed it, then a smile appeared on his face.

After a few brief words, the officer led a group of officers and soldiers onto the boat.

On the boat, Hu Laosan carefully accompanied them and led the officers to the deck.

"Master Liu, let's go sit upstairs. I'll ask the cook to make some good wine and food for you to drink a few cups with."

Master Liu said with a look of disgust:

"Forget it, your cook might not even be able to prepare a feast.

Besides, I don't have time to waste.

Now Prince Jing has issued an order to strictly inspect all ships heading outside the fiefdom.

Hu Laosan, what are you carrying on this boat?

If there are a large number of refugees in the territory, I won’t be able to let you pass.”

When Hu Laosan heard this, the smile on his face began to fade away.

"Master Liu, we are old acquaintances. You know our boss's connections well, so please don't make things difficult for us!"

"Hu Laosan, what are you talking about? I'm just following orders!

If you have no problem, I will let you go!"

Upon hearing this, Hu Laosan's face became even uglier.

Without thinking too much, he took out a purse from his pocket.

Just as he was about to push it in, he saw Lord Liu frowning and pushing it away.

"No, let's follow the rules.

What I just gave you was the necessary tribute from Shuilu, and I will also share it with others after I accept it.

I won’t dare accept this again if you give it to me!”

As he spoke, he led the officers and soldiers into the cabin.

"Brothers, check them one by one. If anyone's registered residence is in Prince Jing's fiefdom, detain them!"

Hu Laosan was unable to stop them and saw the team of officers and soldiers quickly rushing into the cabin, leaving two officers and soldiers guarding the cabin entrance.

In an instant, there was panic in the cabin.

Lu Qingqing was on the deck and felt nervous when she saw the officers and soldiers entering the cabin to search.

The people in their team are all registered in the north, not in Prince Jing's fiefdom.

But she was not sure whether Lord Liu really only wanted to seize Prince Jing's fiefdom.

Or, should we seize everything from the north?

Various thoughts flashed through her mind quickly. Thinking of her master, her mistress, her fellow apprentices, and familiar fellow villagers, Lu Qingqing let out a long breath.

Forget it. If everyone in the team is detained, then she has to find a way to sneak in and rescue them!

During the anxious wait, every part of the cabin was searched thoroughly.

The team of officers came out with a dozen people.

"Sir, the search has been completed. These people are all from Prince Jing's fiefdom."

At the hatch, Lord Liu covered his mouth and nose in disgust.

"Take them away! Go and gather up these people's belongings and take them away with you. Don't leave anything behind!"

Having said that, regardless of Hu Lao San's ugly expression, he turned to his men and said:

"Check the rest of the people from bottom to top, one by one, don't leave anyone behind!"

At the command, the officers and soldiers quickly dispersed.
