Being scolded as a poor widow, I relied on supernatural powers to counterattack in ancient times

Chapter 409 Prevention is very important

"Let's see if the number of people fleeing famine will increase in the past few days? If the number reaches the upper limit, the government will have to come forward to solve it. Maybe they will set up porridge sheds in the city gate tower. If there is food to attract, the refugees will naturally pass by. In this way, our villages will be safe."

"Having said that, we have to be careful if we should take precautions. Fortunately, the courtyard wall of our house is high enough, and there are bamboo thorns on it, so the current safety is not a problem."

A few days after the mother and son discussed the refugee issue, there was news of food loss in the village.

When Bai Anyan brought back the news, Bai Yunxi's complexion was not good, and the most worrying thing still happened.

After Bai Anyan narrated the news to his family members, he spoke angrily,
"There have been people begging in the village for the past few days. Although the villagers are not very happy, they will give them a bite as long as they come to the door. But they shouldn't be dissatisfied, and they went into the village to steal. It's too much."

"Those who were stolen have joined forces to go to Lizheng for a review. I don't know what the result is?"

Listening to his son's indignant tone, Bai Yunxi shook his head, and asked his cousin for an argument, but nothing came of it.

As far as my cousin's character is concerned, it usually takes a lot of effort to judge right and wrong for others, but when it comes to theft, he can't handle it at all, and in the end, the eldest uncle has to come forward.

Xiao Wu has been paying attention to his mother's expression, and when he sees the mocking corner of his mother's mouth, he also bends the corner of his mouth.

"Don't worry, with your grandpa here, your cousin won't be in such trouble."

Apart from urging the payment of taxes, Lizheng's duty is to mediate the relationship between neighbors, and he has no authority over other matters.

At the same time, Bai Yunsong faced everyone's cries with a serious face. He spoke several times, but was stopped by his father's coughing.

Listening to what mother said together, several people were very curious, "I just don't know if the uncle will go to the town to report?"

"Lizheng has to decide for us."

"That's right, we have half a tank of Zamian noodles, which is our family's ration for one month, and there is nothing left. Right now, the food supply is soaring. Without food, we can only drink northwest wind."

The crowd didn't get an answer, they hurried around in the yard,
"Lizheng, please tell me something sweet. Our rice jars have been stolen. If there is no food, people will starve to death."

If he wanted to stand out at this time, that's another story, after all, that person is really not smart.

Of course, this is also the case when my cousin doesn't want to kill himself.

"Second brother don't need to think too much, the theft is not under Li Zheng's control. If the hall uncle is smart, he just needs to report it. If he intervenes, he is asking for trouble."

With no one in his hands and no power, who would listen to him with his passion?
Listening to Xiao Wu's analysis, Bai Yunxi glanced at him appreciatively,
"Xiao Wu is right. If your cousin is smart, you can go directly to the town and report to the elder. It is the elder's duty to catch the thieves."

"..."

Hearing everyone's anxious tone, Bai Yunsong was also very angry, but he also knew that this matter was difficult to handle, so he didn't dare to agree immediately.

Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at his father, and seeing him smoking with his eyelids drooping, he couldn't help being anxious.

"These people are really lawless. It's not like we don't give them when they go to the village to beg for food on weekdays. It's unreasonable to resort to such indecent stealing tricks."
