Wei and Jin Cooks

   Chapter 305 Poor

   Zhao Hanzhang stood at the door, looking down at the young man who was being pinned to the ground, meeting his eyes that were trying to look upward, and the two of them stared at each other.

A middle-aged man with fairly clean clothes but several patches came over with a sullen face, glanced at Zhao Hanzhang and Fu Tinghan, and saw that they were holding a horse, his face softened, and he was still standing outside the door. More than 20 people, all holding horses in their hands, the expressions on their faces froze.

   There was some fear in his eyes, his back bent down unconsciously, he bowed and asked, "What are you doing here, noble people?"

   Zhao Hanzhang looked back from the young man's face, looked at the middle-aged man and said with a smile: "We are going to the county seat and passing by here, because it is getting dark, so I want to stay overnight in the village."

   The middle-aged man hesitated after hearing this, "Our village is dilapidated and the houses are shabby. I'm afraid that the nobles will be wronged."

   Zhao Hanzhang said with a smile: "As long as there is a place to stay, the village is kind enough to take it in, how dare we be picky?"

   The middle-aged man said: "But we don't have so many houses. The girl might as well go west. There is a big village below, maybe you can stay there."

   Zhao Hanzhang looked at Qiu Wu.

   Qiuwu immediately grabbed a handful of copper coins and gave them to the middle-aged man, "It's getting dark, and there are a lot of beasts, snakes and insects outside, please ask the village chief to accommodate."

   The middle-aged man looked at the copper coin in his hand and pondered, and nodded in agreement after a long while.

   He accepted the money, turned around and asked his family to make room for them. Seeing that they were going to make all the rooms available, Zhao Hanzhang stopped them, saying that they only needed two rooms at night.

   The middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief and only packed the two largest rooms for them.

   Zhao Hanzhang let them do their work, she walked around the yard curiously, and then looked around the people in the middle of the yard.

  The middle-aged man also saw that this woman seemed to be the main one in their group, so he walked around behind her.

   Seeing her staring at Wu Erlang, the middle-aged man explained: "This is a villager who committed crimes in our village. He was held here for punishment. Don't be afraid, girl."

   Zhao Hanzhang shook his head: "I'm not afraid, I'm just curious."

   She asked: "Although it's uncomfortable to lie on your stomach, it's not too uncomfortable. I don't know what he did, so it's enough to punish him like this?"

When mentioning what Wu Erlang committed, the middle-aged man became angry and said angrily: "This kid steals the young crops of my family, this punishment... Because I found it in time, I will hold it like this, and I will do it next time. There is such a thing, it will not be like this, he has to pay me double at least"

   Zhao Hanzhang blinked and asked, "At this time, stealing the young crops... for what?"

   The middle-aged man sighed, "What else can be done, of course it's for eating, but eating young crops at this time is simply a way out."

  Wu Sheng blinked to look at Zhao Hanzhang and Fu Tinghan, and when they met their gazes, he simply fell on his cheeks, lying on the ground completely motionless.

   Zhao Hanzhang looked at him and squinted, "Where is the green crop that was stolen?"

  The middle-aged man pointed in one direction and complained non-stop: "It's still my son who occasionally bumps into it, or he really cuts it off. I don't know how much it will cost."

   Zhao Hanzhang also sighed, "Looking at his age, his parents are old and weak, his children are young, he is extremely hungry, and he can only eat young crops in order to survive."

   "Bah, he's a bachelor, where did he get his children? He doesn't have any parents to support him, so he doesn't have to worry about feeding the whole family."

   Zhao Hanzhang and Fu Tinghan silently lowered their heads to look at Wu Sheng, who was lying on the ground.

   County magistrate Gao also widened his eyes with an unbelievable look on his face. He felt that he had been greatly hurt. He had to know that when Wu Erlang put away the remaining half of the biscuits, his eyes were red with emotion.

   He believed that Zhao Hanzhang was the same, otherwise he would not have given him two more cakes, and the result...

   Zhao Hanzhang watched Wu Sheng silently for a while, then looked at the village chief, and asked, "Why do people like this stay in the village? Not to mention destroying property, it's also bad for the atmosphere, so it's better to drive them out of the village."

   The young man lying on the ground widened his eyes, raised his head slightly, and looked at Zhao Hanzhang in disbelief.

   Zhao Hanzhang smiled softly at him, but the young man shuddered.

The middle-aged man was also startled, and waved his hand hurriedly: "No, no, although he is not a good person, he is not a bad person, sigh, he is starving, the world is not good, sigh, how to say, sigh, That's it, it's okay, Dalang, let him go home."

  The young man who was cleaning up the house came out, untiringly loosened Wu Sheng, then pulled him up and left him alone.

   As soon as Wu Erlang was free, he immediately smiled and said to the middle-aged man, "Uncle Cheng, I will never dare again, really!"

   The middle-aged man scolded: "Go away, it will not be so easy to cut young crops in the future."

   He paused and said: "You can't cut other people's crops, and don't cut your own. Wait another month. I don't know how much food the young crops can harvest now. Don't you waste food when you cut young crops at this time?"

   Wu Sheng said casually: "Then you have to live until then, or you will starve to death and keep the young crops in the fields, isn't it cheaper for others?"

   He sighed and said, "Thinking about it makes me feel aggrieved. Everyone is dead, and there is still food left to harvest and eat. Thinking about this in my heart, I will have a hard time in my next life."

   The village chief was so angry that he reached out and patted him.

  Wu Sheng shrank, but didn't dodge, let the village chief pat him, he rubbed his shoulders and hissed, "It hurts too, Uncle Cheng, you are full and strong."

"get out."

  Wu Sheng glanced at Zhao Hanzhang and Fu Tinghan, patted his **** and was about to roll, but Zhao Hanzhang stopped humanity and said, "Since you are a bachelor, you have nothing to worry about. Would you like to come with me?"

  Wu Sheng was surprised, pointed to his nose and asked, "Me? The girl is willing to use me?"

   Zhao Hanzhang raised his eyebrows and said, "Yeah, so are you willing to follow me?"

   Wu Sheng's heart jumped, and he couldn't help turning his head to look at the village chief. The village chief was also surprised, but he only pondered for a while and said to Wu Sheng, "Go, maybe there is a way to survive."

Seeing this, the villagers who took the five cents but didn't leave, summoned up their courage and stepped forward, "My lord, can you see me? I can beat and scold, as long as you hang the money, or you can give half a bag of grain, I eat very little. of."

   Zhao Hanzhang reached out and patted his shoulder and said, "You have a wife and children at home, how can you leave them and leave? Stay at home to farm, maybe there will be life soon?"

  Wu Sheng, who was still a little hesitant, immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed at Zhao Hanzhang, "The little one is willing to follow the noble."

   He raised his head with a pitiful look on his face again, "Your Majesty, I lied to you before. It was a small mistake, you can punish the little one."

  The village chief immediately turned to look at him and stared, "Why did you lie to the nobles?"

   Wu Sheng burst into tears and said, "I lied to the nobles for two biscuits, Uncle Cheng, as you know, there are still three children in my family. After I leave, they don't know if they can still live..."

   Zhao Hanzhang and Fu Tinghan:  …

See you tomorrow
