Traveling through the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, a story of survival in troubled tim

After all, the elders are old, and their hearing is not very good as they age.

Leading the people into the village.

When asking about Su Shui, no one spoke for a long time. Turning around, I found that the people in the village had surrounded this girl and were asking her all kinds of questions.

"Little girl, you are from outside, right?"

"Bah, didn't you see that kid An? He went out specially to pick him up. If he's not from outside, then where is he from?"

Another woman interrupted, "Our territory is so small here that even the news of how many pups that rat gave birth to last night would spread everywhere the next day. Your question is unnecessary!"

After saying that, he squeezed to the front, with a smile on his face like a flower, "Little girl, will you come over to us to give birth in the future?

Are you betrothed to someone? "

The woman was fat, and with her body she easily pushed aside the person who was in the way.

Thinking about the boy at home, she has never found a suitable one, which makes her worried to death.

Although it was a bit presumptuous for the little girl to ask this question since it was the first time they met, opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared and who take action first.

What if...

"I……"

Wen Shu was a little at a loss for a moment, looking at the group of onlookers surrounding her.

"Stand back and watch your step"

Jueyu is a responsible person. She did not have any instructions from the girl. These were just curiosity and there was no malice.

He just used his body to block Wenshu and separate her from them, in case of any unexpected situation so that he could respond in time.

……

Just now he was about to ask Wenshu whether she was engaged to a woman from her husband's family, but suddenly he felt a little dissatisfied.

It came up and started to talk hard.

She stood with her hands on her hips, glaring at Jueyu with anger in her eyes, and yelled, "What's wrong with you, girl?

Is someone asking you a question? Why are you stopping them?

Humph, don't look at me like that. With your skinny arms and legs, you still want to wield swords and guns. I don't like it.

"I tell you, I know what's going on. There's no need for you to meddle in my business!" After saying that, she turned her head away and ignored Jue Yu, as if the roar just now had vented all her dissatisfaction.

As for Jueyu, after being yelled at by her, she stood there in a daze, not knowing what to say.

As she spoke, the woman glanced at the sword on Jueyu's back.

Seeing that Wenshu's attention was attracted by her, he immediately put on a kind face and coaxed her, "The eldest son in my family is tall and strong..."

After talking for a long time, he was suddenly interrupted by a voice of instruction.

"Shengwa family, what are you doing? What are you trying to do by blocking the way of our distinguished guests?"

The elder's voice, tinged with anger, came from the front.

"If you really have nothing to do and have finished your farm work at home, go to the cave entrance and open up some wasteland.

There are still large tracts of barren land over there. If you have the time and strength, go and use them there. This will benefit future generations and provide some food for your family..."

The person who spoke was a woman who looked to be no more than forty years old. She had a gray shawl on her head and a long braid tied around her waist.

After he finished speaking, he pulled out a whip from his waist and swung it in the air, making a clanging sound...

The elder of the clan also returned at the right time.

But his expression was not very good. He glanced at everyone and finally landed on the woman who had just spoken:

"Everyone go away, there's nothing to see.

This makes our village look so unreasonable.

......"

After Wang Qiniang lashed out with those whips, everyone scattered in terror. It was as if a demon had descended upon them. Those on the periphery of the originally noisy crowd, as if being driven away invisibly, began to panic and walk out.

They walked in a hurry, as if they were afraid that the whip would fall on them if they stopped for a moment.

But when they saw the elder suddenly turn back, they seemed to be shocked, and reacted belatedly, feeling confused.

The elders were so respectful to the girl, which was completely different from what they usually knew.

They couldn't help but wonder inwardly whether their behavior just now had really offended this distinguished guest?

For a moment, everyone scattered like frightened sparrows, with their heads down and hurried steps, rushing home in a hurry.

The desire to watch the fun just now had long disappeared.

The woman who had just been threatened by Wang Qinnan with a whip, now had a face as red as a ripe apple, her lips trembling slightly, but she didn't dare to say a word, as if she had lost all her courage and confidence. She could only flee the scene in disgrace like a mouse with its tail between its legs.

In the face of such absolute power and influence, even the most eloquent and clever mouths now seem useless, and all resistance is futile.

The elder slowly returned and walked up to Wen Shu step by step. With a hint of apology in his expression, he said, "Girl, please don't be offended.

The people in our village have lived firmly in these mountains all their lives, and rarely have the opportunity to step out of this place and see the outside world.

They were just curious because they saw strangers in the village and had no ill intentions.

You must not take it personally and don't let this little thing affect your mood."

The elder's words were full of concern and comfort, which resolved the awkward situation.

As an elder, he could have chosen not to explain to Wenshu, but thinking of Su Shui's temper, he knew that this girl had suffered some injustice the first time she came back.

He might even send someone back to ridicule him.

"Uncle, where, where...

Wen Shu is not a stingy person,'

It's because everyone likes me, and the fact that they gathered around to see me was also Wenshu's unannounced visit."

Of course Wen Shu wouldn't blame him. Compared to the woman she had just sent out, he was just a little more sharp-tongued.

What's more, they didn't say anything bad to each other. This idea is not on the same level of combat effectiveness as the keyboard warriors of the past.

"Well, follow me, otherwise they will see you are easy to talk to and then surround you and ask you questions."

As he said this, he raised his eyes and motioned Wenshu to walk in a row with him.

Wen Shu had no way to refuse, so she had to keep up, but she was only half a step behind.

Although her uncle said so, Wenshu could not do so. Although her uncle was respectful to her and seemed to be in charge, he was the elder after all.

Moreover, he has been running this village for so many years, and his reputation is not something that she, an outsider, can compare to.

"What my uncle said is right, so I'll listen to him."

Wenshu acted like an obedient Mo Yan.

"Uncle, you too, my dear, it must have been difficult for the girl to get here. I wonder if she has eaten yet!"

When they arrived, it was already noon the next day. Lu ate some bread on the boat to fill his stomach. He hadn't had a proper meal since yesterday morning.

When Wen Shu heard the woman's words, her stomach started to growl at the perfect time...

Wenshu was embarrassed and at a loss for a moment.

But no one seemed to listen. The elder took over the woman's words and introduced Wen Shu:

"This is Wang Qiniang, the daughter of your grandmother's cousin who left home and now lives back in the village.

Just call me Seventh Auntie."

"Seventh Aunt..."

The clerk has arrived with courtesy.
