In the years of famine, the knife in my mother's hand is not bad either

Village chief Wang Dakuo listened to Old Lady Lin's plea for mercy.

There was no mercy at all.

Wang Miaomiao died in their home... This is an indisputable fact.

The anger of the villagers in Wangjia Village needs to be calmed down.

Their Lin family was the victim to appease the anger of the villagers in Wangjia Village.

Along the way, Wang Dakuo saw too many refugees, so his heart was naturally much harder than when he was in Wangjia Village.

So at this moment, facing Mrs. Lin’s pleading, he simply chose to block it.

Don't listen.

......

After leaving the Wangjia Village camp, Lin Ze went directly to the camp where the merchants were.

He knocked frantically on the door of the makeshift camp formed by merchants from the northern border.

'boom! ''boom! ’

The violent knocking on the door naturally woke up the merchants who were sleeping peacefully.

They crawled out from under the quilt and felt the slight coolness outside.

No one wanted to get out of the quilt.

A merchant shouted:

"It's freezing cold, and the snowstorm hasn't stopped outside yet. Who's frantically knocking on the camp gate?"

As soon as he finished speaking, other merchants immediately echoed him:

"Yes, anyone knocking on the camp gate for no reason is simply crazy."

"Should we care? It's not an enemy attack. I think we should just leave it alone."

"There should be soldiers on duty. Why should we worry about this? If there is something, they will knock on our door naturally."

"..."

Several people were lying in bed, chatting with each other.

For convenience, there is a small room built here except for the separate bathing room. They all sleep on a large bunk bed and don't take off their clothes anyway.

It is also convenient to communicate with each other.

In just a short while, the children and women woke up.

The knocking outside hasn't stopped yet.

It took a long time before a soldier stood up and went to the door to check.

When the sound stopped, all the merchants breathed a sigh of relief.

Then they heard a knock on their outer door:

"Boom boom boom!"

"My Lord, someone has requested to see the doctor in our team. He said that there is something wrong with the woman with a high fever and asked him to take another look."

Everyone in the room listened.

He said directly:

"Then the doctor will have to go there."

"promise!"

After getting approval, the soldier went to find a doctor.

But it was such a cold day and there was a heavy snowstorm, and the doctor was pulled out of the quilt with a look of reluctance on his face.

However, he was wrapped in thick clothes, which made him look many times stronger than others.

The cold you catch outside will be much weaker.

After the doctor followed the crazy Lin Ze back to the Wangjia Village camp.

The doctor didn't even need to get close to the patient before he declared:

"Why did you ask me to come and see a dead body in the middle of the night?"

"No... no, doctor, please take a good look. Miaomiao must still be saved, still can be saved!" After seeing that the doctor made the death decision without even touching Wang Miaomiao, Lin Ze's emotions reached the critical point and he collapsed and shouted loudly again.

At the same time, he tightly grasped the doctor's hand.

The doctor cried out in pain.

Then the doctor kicked Lin Ze hard at the root.

There was a 'bang' sound of a kick.

Lin Ze rolled on the ground in pain and couldn't get up.

But the hand still stretched out towards the doctor stubbornly. The doctor looked at Lin Ze's hand stretched out to him and quickly dodged.

"If there's nothing else, I'll leave first." The doctor looked up and said to the people in Wangjia Village, then shook his head, sighed, and quickly left.

"This man is crazy. He actually wants me to treat the dead."

Everyone in Wangjia Village looked at Lin Ze.

I couldn't help but feel a sense of grief and indignation in my heart:

"If you had faced Miaomiao's feelings earlier, you wouldn't have ended up like this."

"Crazy? Miaomiao has been tortured to the point of insanity for several years, right? If she wasn't crazy, who would sit under that big locust tree for years? That kind of loneliness... I, an old woman, understand it all too well. After all, that's how I got through it after my husband left."

"You reap what you sow. As the old saying goes, it's not that there's no retribution, it's that the time hasn't come. The Lin family committed a crime years ago and they've been punished. But it made Miaomiao cry."

"..."

Lin Ze listened to everyone's discussion.

All the memories of meeting, knowing, loving, and dating Wang Miaomiao resurfaced in my mind:

A young man stood alone beneath a large locust tree, its blossoms fragrant. He held a red bean in his hand and passed it to his beloved girl, reciting softly, "Red beans grow in Liang State, spring brings forth a few branches. I wish you would pick more, for this is the truest token of my longing for you."

[“Even if I say goodbye late, I say goodbye to you every morning.”]

"I will stay with you forever, even if it means leaving you for the mountains."

[“The phoenix keeps its promise, and the flower never fails to keep its promise, year after year.”]

"Hehe~" Lin Ze was immersed in the memories and let out a strange laugh, scaring everyone in Wangjia Village away.

I was afraid of being infected by that lunatic Lin Ze.

But he didn't care about the eyes and comments of the people around him, and recited softly:

"The phoenix keeps its promise, and the flower never fails to keep its promise, year after year."

"You did it, I didn't."

"If we meet again in the next life, I don't want to be your second minister anymore. I want to be your only minister to atone for the sins we've betrayed each other year after year in this life."

As he finished speaking, sadness and frustration washed over him, and a thin layer of ice covered his eyes.

My head became dizzy and when I looked up again, my eyes were dull.

He just kept muttering: "coward" and "second minister"

The heavy snow stopped.

Three more days passed.

Shen Qian naturally heard the news of the death of her second daughter and fourth son.

He led a group of soldiers to the front of Wang Tianci's body, looked at the two ice sculptures that had been completely frozen by the wind and snow, and thought to himself:

Lovers will eventually get married, and Liu has never let you down.

You have never let Liu down.

It's just a pity...you have such a father-in-law without even realizing it.

"Bury them both together." Shen Qian ordered the soldiers beside her.

Then he continued forward with the remaining soldiers.

We arrived at the camp in Wangjia Village.

At the very edge of the Wangjia Village camp, a carriage was covered with ice and snow, with several members of a family huddled on it.

Shen Qian stood in front of the carriage and said to a soldier beside her:

"Lift the curtain and pull everyone out of the carriage."

As soon as he finished speaking, a soldier rushed forward and pulled hard.

He directly pulled the people out of the carriage.

Father Liu looked at the soldier in armor and didn't dare to say a word.

Stammering...shivering from the winter cold.

Even Liu Shi's wife was not spared because she was pregnant. She was roughly dragged out of the carriage by the soldiers.

Standing on the snow, feeling the pain brought by the ice and snow stinging the body, his face was full of pain.

"Mother-in-law, what are you doing..." Father Liu looked at Shen Qian with an unhappy expression, but still politely, and asked Shen Qian.

Shen Qian stared into his eyes until he became uncomfortable, turned his head away, and felt creepy.

Just when he was about to give up, he slowly uttered a word:

"The fourth one has already separated from me."

"Don't call me mother-in-law."

"Also, your daughter and the fourth child have frozen to death in the snowstorm."

"You've been occupying their carriages for these past few days. Haven't you considered that they've already died outside the camp?"
