Chapter 242 Chapter 241
The old man Qi had already told everyone that the old Qi's family would be separated before the lottery.

The members of Lao Qi's family had no objections, and the villagers naturally had nothing to say.

Therefore, one representative from each household of the old Qi’s family went to draw. There was a lucky baby in the big house, as if confirming that Qi Bao’er’s good luck was in her body, she was directly drawn to the master bedroom in the main courtyard.

Xinli Zhengqi opened the mountain to see it, waved his hands and made a decision: Lao Qi's family and Song Qi Yeyan's family, you simply live in the main courtyard together.

It happens that there are eight additional rooms in the main courtyard. Qi Kaishan has selfish intentions for Qi Baoer, and he also wants to take care of Lao Qi’s family. He thinks that Lao Qi’s family should live in the best place. Fair enough.

Old Qi's family was divided into households, but the old man Qi and his wife can only be counted as one household with the big house, so there are four households, plus another four households, exactly eight houses.

Such a score means that Lao Qi's family and Song Qi Yeyan's family can close the door and live their own lives in this courtyard.

They are the only ones who can close the door and not interfere with others.

Because only the main courtyard located in the second courtyard of the entire third entrance courtyard is separated from the others by a wall, while other places have the pattern of the courtyard in the middle of the east wing and west wing.

No one can say anything about the fact that the master bedroom is the big room of the old Qi's family. The allocation of other rooms is also decided by lottery.

There were quite a lot of people in the big room, and although the master bedroom was larger, there was only one room. The old man Qi and his wife decided to live in the same room with Qi Kangtai temporarily.

Qi Baoer helped fourth uncle get the side bedroom on the left side next to the master bedroom, Yan Guian got the study room on the right side of the master bedroom, and the others got the servant's room on the left side, there is not much difference.

There is a rather large garden in the main courtyard, probably because no one has lived in it for a long time and no one has taken care of it. What about pebbles?

Mrs. Tian didn't plan to plant flowers and plants in the garden. Who would have the spare time at this time?

But these places should not be wasted, so Qi Kangfu and others were asked to dig the soil and make earthen stoves on the spot.

I don't know if it's because the excitement of being able to settle down has no place to vent, not only Qi Kangfu and Yan Gui'an, the two strong men, but also the old guys like Song Shuming and Qi Yuanwai are not idle, it only took more than an hour , Let them make four clay stoves.

It's just that the shape of the stove is not good, and the smoke that follows the fire is unbearable for most people. Fortunately, it is not a long-term residence. After a little modification, the smoke will not be so big, and it will be fine.

There are two large stoves, one is more suitable for boiling water and steaming steamed buns, one is slightly smaller and suitable for cooking, the more delicate one is the masterpiece of Song Shuming and Ye Yuanwai's father and son, it is used for making soup, frying medicine and so on.

When the men could retreat, it was time for the women to go to work and make dinner. A group of men became mud monkeys no matter what their age. Even Song Shuming, who maintained a refined demeanor on the way to escape, had a lot of dirt on his face and hair.

"You are really, you are still playing with mud at any age, and you don't feel ashamed." Qi Yue patted the dried mud for him with a handkerchief.

Song Shuming grinned his teeth so rarely, "I made Madam laugh."

"I'm not kidding you, today is really worth being happy."

"Yeah, it's something to be happy about."

Qi Kang'an squatted in front of the daughter who was sitting in front of the stone table drying her hair with her chin on her hands, "Bao, what's wrong with you, why does Dad feel that you are not happy?"

Although the daughter was usually quiet, he found that after entering the village, the daughter was a little abnormally quiet.

"Is there something wrong with the village?" He looked around with fluttering eyes, and sighed softly after confirming that his father was not there.

Qi Baoer turned to her father with dead fish eyes, "Father, don't you feel that there is something wrong?"

Qi Kang'an,,, Qi Kang'an already had the feeling that something was wrong, but one thing after another, he still hasn't figured out what's wrong.

It's a bit of a mouthful, but in short, I feel uneasy and feel that I have done something wrong.

"Where is it, Bao? Is there something wrong with this village?"

Qi Bao'er doesn't want to bully her father either, but...
He took out an apple and handed it to Dad, and took a bite himself, "Dad, the head of the criminal yamen is saying that everyone in this village has moved out, right?"

"Yup."

Qi Kang'an also took a big bite out of politeness.

Originally, the ancient table and stone bench were in the garden, and my mother wanted to use that piece as a kitchen and the other side as a place to eat, so they moved the stone table to the corner.

Beside them, the firewood chopped in the afternoon was stacked to a height of two meters, which just separated them from the outside.

They sat and squatted here, while they were cooking dinner outside, while the men were setting up a simple dining hall, and you talked to each other, and they didn't deliberately go around the firewood pile, so they couldn't find their father and daughter here. .

Qi Baoer asked again: "The head of the criminal yamen said that the people who moved all moved to the nearby villages, right?"

"Seems to be."

"Dad, don't you think it's strange? What kind of thing would make people move the village away, but only move to a nearby village?"

Without waiting for Qi Kang'an to answer, Qi Bao'er continued: "There is a problem with this village. No matter what the problem is, in short, the people who originally lived in the village felt that they had to play together if they lived any longer.

Dad, if we hadn't had the disaster of war, would we have left the village?
Let’s not talk about us, let’s talk about Leijiatun. I heard from my grandfather that the poor man has only a small mountain road that can’t even be walked by a horse. There are not many fields in the village that can be used for planting. The main source of income is the mountain. The prey brought from here, but because it is too inconvenient to get in and out, the people who collect the prey are very aggressive in lowering the price.

In this situation, Dad, not many people from Leijiatun are running out?
Besides, running outside but not far away, isn't it obvious that only this village has a problem? "

People at this time still attach great importance to the word root. No matter how hard it is, they will never leave their hometown unless necessary. Even if they leave for some unavoidable reasons, they must go back before they die.

This is called falling leaves returning to their roots.

Qi Kang'an was stunned.

At first he felt that something was wrong, but the excitement of finally being able to settle down washed away the weirdness. At that time, his mind was almost blank and he couldn't think. He basically listened to whatever the clerk said. .

Now I am reminded by my daughter...
Qi Kang'an couldn't even bite down on the apple, looked at his daughter dully and said, "Baby, did something bad happen in this village?"

Qi Bao'er also wanted to deceive the silly father to make him feel better, but what?
Pointing to the sky, he took another sip of the apple, and said vaguely, "Father, the whole village is covered in dark clouds. There are souls of unjust deaths here, and they are very fierce."

The apple fell off from his hand and fell to the ground, a circle of light ash bounced, "Bao..."

Dad is afraid.

Dad is dead.

Your grandfather will never let dad go.

The foolish father looks so pitiful that his soul has already left his body, so pitiful that Qi Baoer ate an apple again.

"Father, you can take care of yourself, we're just a group of refugees, it's not bad to put them in other people's villages and let them take care of them.

Give you the advantage of being an independent village and still being so old.

Dad, what do you think?

How can there be so many beautiful things in this world? "
