Traveling through time and space to become a concubine's daughter, leading the whole village to

When Xu Miao and the others returned to Zhou Jicheng's residence, it was already past dinner time.

Several people were busy all day, but they were all in a very good mood.

After a few days of non-stop work, the timber was purchased, the people from Kangzhuang were recruited, and even the teacher had to follow the people from Kangzhuang back to Hanjia Village.

During the meal, Xu Miao discussed the matter of returning to the village with the two brothers of the Han family.

Xu Miao originally planned to let the two Han brothers follow the Kangzhuang people, but Han Laoer and the others refused to let Xu Miao go back to Hanjia Village alone.

They didn't dare let Xu Miao run back to the village by himself. If something unexpected happened on the way, it would be too late to regret.

In the end, it was decided to let Han Laosan follow these Kangzhuang people back to Hanjia Village, so that if anything happened on the way, there would be someone to make decisions.

Xu Miao saw that Uncle Kang was not the type of person who could manage the people of Kangzhuang, so he had already made plans in his mind.

Xu Miao and the others discussed that Xu Miao would take Han Lao Er back to Hanjia Village early tomorrow morning. They were all worried about the transaction between Village Chief Han and the barbarians.

I really feel uneasy if I don’t go back and check sooner.

Uncle Fu didn't expect Xu Miao and the others to leave in such a hurry.

Uncle Fu: "Miss Xu, why are you leaving so soon? You've finally made it to Dingzhou City. It's okay to return to Hanjia Village a little later, right?"

Uncle Fu also heard that something seemed to be happening in Hanjia Village that made Xu Miao and the others worried.

But how serious could the incident be in the village that I have to rush back?

Xu Miao smiled and replied to Uncle Fu: "Uncle Fu, I've been really bothering you four these past few days. You've been busy since the three of us got here."

"The road is difficult to travel on in winter, so I won't invite you. In the summer, I'll have the Han brothers come and take you four to stay in Han Village for a while."

"I heard from Village Chief Han that Hanjia Village has beautiful scenery and pleasant weather in the summer. When the time comes, let Village Chief Han take you to the river in front of our village to fish."

Han Lao San continued with a smile, "Uncle Fu, I'll come pick you up when the time comes. The fish in that river are really fresh. I'll have my mother make you some fish soup."

Han Laoer also smiled innocently and said, "I'll go to the grassland and catch a rabbit for Uncle Fu. There's a lot of game on the grassland back then!"

Seeing this, Uncle Fu knew that he couldn't keep Xu Miao and the others. He quickly took Mrs. Zhao and Wang Rui and his wife to prepare food for Xu Miao and the others on the road.

After Uncle Fu and the others left, Xu Miao took out two hundred taels of silver and handed it to Han Lao San.

"Brother Han, take these banknotes and buy some food for the people in Kangzhuang."

Although the people in Kangzhuang had more than fifty taels of silver in their hands, that little bit of silver was not enough for them to do anything with.

We can't just watch the people of Kangzhuang starve.

After Xu Miao handed the banknote to Han Lao San, he continued, "We will only take care of their food for this year. After the autumn harvest next year, no matter how the harvest turns out, we will no longer provide them with any assistance."

A little bit of rice is a favor, a peck of rice is a grudge. Xu Miao didn't want to pamper the Kangzhuang people with bad habits.

When the autumn harvest begins next year, the people of Kangzhuang will have to rely on their own efforts to survive.

How they want to live depends on their own abilities.

After hearing Xu Miao's words, the Han brothers nodded. Helping the people of Kangzhuang for just one year would be enough. Hanjia Village had just started to enjoy a better life, so they didn't have the energy to care about the people of Kangzhuang.

Besides, they didn’t invite some ancestors back to be worshipped. When the autumn harvest begins next year, everyone will have to rely on their own abilities.

The next morning, Xu Miao went to General Liu's mansion to say goodbye with Mrs. Liu.

General Liu was also at home. After seeing Xu Miao, he asked about the situation of the people in Kangzhuang. Hearing that Xu Miao was anxious to return to Hanjia Village, he said, "Miss Xu, you are quite the host. After finishing your business, you are rushing back. What's the matter? Can Hanjia Village not function without you?"

Xu Miao chuckled and said, "General, please stop laughing at me. Hanjia Village is dangerous in winter. Even if I stay in Dingzhou City, I can't feel at ease."

"It would be better for me to go back to Hanjia Village early and stay there. No matter if there is anything wrong, I just want to have some peace of mind."

Xu Miao...there's smuggling going on in Hanjia Village, how can I not be anxious?

Seeing this, Mrs. Liu gave Xu Miao some food for the journey and sent him out of General Liu's mansion.

While Xu Miao was saying goodbye to General Liu, the two brothers of the Han family hurried to the street and bought some cakes and candies for Tiedan to bring back to Hanjia Village.

They discussed it last night and decided that since the two uncles were going out, they had to buy something for their nephew and bring it back.

Although Han Laosan had two taels of silver given to him by Village Chief Han before he left, he did not dare to spend it all.

If he dared to spend the money recklessly, his father would definitely break his legs.

You can buy something for Tiedan, it shouldn’t be a big problem.

When Xu Miao returned to Zhou Jicheng's mansion, Mrs. Zhao took out another package for Xu Miao.

Mrs. Zhao pointed at the package and said with a smile, "Inside this is a new undershirt made for the young general, and some dried meat. Miss Xu, please take it back to the young general."

"Although there's no shortage of things in the military camp, my wife Wang Rui and I have nothing to do, so we prepared these things."

Zhou Jicheng only came back a few times a year, so it was difficult for them to find someone to deliver things to the military camp.

It’s just right that I can take it to Zhou Jicheng while Xu Miao is here.

Uncle Fu also tied some food to Han Laoer's horse.

Xu Miao briefly explained a few words to Han Lao San, then took Han Lao Er and rode out of Dingzhou City and headed back to Hanjia Village.

Xu Miao and Han Laoer rushed back to Hanjia Village before dinner the next day.

After entering the village, Xu Miao went straight back to the home of Village Chief Han with Han Laoer, and waited to see that Village Chief Han and Han Da Ge were sitting at home safe and sound.

Xu Miao finally let go of his anxious heart.

When Village Chief Han saw Xu Miao and Han Lao Er, he didn't care about anything else and directly took them to the empty house in the Han family yard.

When Aunt Han saw Village Chief Han taking Xu Miao and Han Lao Er to the house, she quickly ran to her door to guard it.

Aunt Han has been living in fear these past few days; her house is now like a den of thieves.

Aunt Han's heart starts beating faster whenever there is any movement outside.

Ever since Village Chief Han returned with those things, Aunt Han hadn't slept well for a single day. She was always worried that someone would find out about their Han Village's secret deal with the barbarians.

She was hoping that Xu Miao and the others would come back soon so that they could deal with the furs of these barbarians, and only then would she feel at ease.

When Xu Miao entered the house, he saw a dozen large bags piled on the floor.

Village Chief Han pointed at the large bags on the ground and said to Xu Miao with great joy, "Ah Miao, these are all top-quality hides."

"That barbarian knew we had medicinal herbs here, so the ones he brought for trade this time were all top-quality goods."

"Many of the mink furs in there are new to me. We're going to make a killing this time!"

Village chief Han transported these skins back home from other villages. When he opened the big bag and took a closer look, he was shocked.

The hides traded this year are of the best quality in recent years.

It was filled with the finest fox, rabbit, and deer skins. There was also a bag of mink skins. Village Chief Han had heard of mink skins a long time ago, but this was the first time he had actually seen them.
