She delivered food in ancient times

Chapter 119
Outside the village of Dahe Village, Xishan County.

There were two men standing, one of them was obviously thinner, with thin clothes, sunken cheeks, and a look of malnutrition.

The only characteristic is that he is wearing a Confucian shirt, which seems to be a scholar.

The other one seemed quite energetic. This person was Lizheng Liu Xingwang from Xishan County, who happened to be in charge of Dahe Village.

The young man next to him is the new head of Dahe Village.

"Xiao Zhou, you are a scholar, and you are willing to come to our place and become the village head. I am very happy, but you must be mentally prepared. There are almost no people in the Dahe Village you are in charge of."

Liu Xingwang said with some earnestness and earnestness, that scholars, no matter in the previous dynasty or now, are more respected, especially in farmers' families.

"Uncle Xingwang, don't worry, I myself escaped from other places. It is very good to have a place to settle down. Even if I am not familiar with the place, I still have to rely on you." Zhou Qing complimented very skillfully , and stuffed him with a few taels of silver in his hand without looking expressionful.

To say that when she first came, Zhou Qing still had a bit of embarrassment, or it was the reserve of a young man, but she has completely let go of it in the past few years of fleeing.

Reserved, self-esteem can fill the stomach, it is good not to starve to death.

If it weren't for the education she received under the red flag in her previous life, she wouldn't even know what she would have done.

During these days of fleeing, she really saw a lot of evils that she had never seen before, and she naturally acted more properly.

At the same time, she deeply knows that in this era, the identity of a woman has greatly restricted her. After realizing this, she decisively chose to dress up as a man.

Actively collect news, knowing that the war is coming to an end, the old dynasty has faded, and a new master is coming.

So she spent most of her savings to plan for a village head position for herself.

The purpose is to be able to find a reliable place and settle down.

Fortunately, the world is tentatively set now, and the management is not strict. Being able to become the village head of this Dahe village can be regarded as her mistake.

She had inquired about this village on purpose. Due to the military disaster, most of the young and strong in the village were taken away to fight, and almost no one came back, so only some old and weak women and children were left behind. As time went by, many people He also passed away due to various reasons, or left here to find another way out.

Therefore, there are not many people in the whole village now, and there are less than a dozen households. The largest number of people is no more than 4 people, and the smallest number is only 1 person.

There were less than 30 people in total, and ten of them were children under the age of ten.It's completely within her tolerance.

Of course, since the position of village chief was planned, Zhou Qing would naturally assume the responsibilities that this position should bear.

After flipping the money in his hand, Liu Xingwang showed a smile on his face. Despite the unreliable appearance of the young man in front of him, he was quite generous in his actions.

For Yinzi's sake, he was naturally willing to help him speak well in front of the old villagers of Dahe Village.

"As long as you know what's in your mind, let's go in now, and I'll introduce you to someone."

As he spoke, he led the people towards the village.

Looking along the way, the village was indeed on the same level as Zhou Qingtiao. The fields were basically covered with weeds, which were obviously deserted. The houses passing by were basically empty, let alone people.

However, Dahe Village should have lived a good life before. There are quite a few mud brick houses, but there are few adobe houses that are common in other villages.

Zhou Qing observed the layout of Dahe Village while thinking about his follow-up plan.

Until Liu Xingwang stopped in front of a house.

Zhou Qing guessed in his heart that this should be the place where the more prestigious old people in Dahe Village lived.

In fact, Zhou Qing guessed right.

"Uncle Dajiang, open the door, I brought the new village chief of your village."

As the voice fell, there was a creak in the originally silent room, and the door opened a small crack.

Showing a face full of wind and frost.

The man looked at Liu Xingwang carefully, and after confirming that it was him, he opened the door slightly.

Then he looked at Zhou Qing who Liu Xingwang was talking about.

Due to the years of war, the people in Dahe Village maintained instinctive vigilance towards outsiders, which was why Zhou Qing and the others walked in without seeing anyone.

To be honest, Zhang Dajiang is not at ease about this so-called new village chief that Liu Xingwang said, even though he seems to be a frail scholar.

But since Liu Xingwang's reasoning brought people here, and he said that he was the new village head of their Dahe Village, he was one of the few old people in the village, so he naturally had to take care of him.

It would be fine if he was a good person, but if he had any evil intentions, even though Dahe Village had no youth, the old fellows were not easy to deal with.

In just a short moment, Zhang Dajiang had a lot of thoughts in his heart, and he still maintained that vigilant look on his face.

"Uncle Dajiang, this is your new village head. His name is Zhou Qing. He is a scholar. He is absolutely reliable."

As if Liu Xingwang didn't see Zhang Dajiang's vigilance, he still introduced it with a smile.

During this process, Zhou Qing did not speak hastily, she was also observing the old man who appeared in front of her.

Knowing how to observe words and expressions, she can naturally see the old man's distrust and vigilance towards her, but Zhou Qing doesn't care, they are not familiar with her, she is still an outsider, if she comes, the other party will be more enthusiastic towards her Zhou Qing's first reaction would be to run away.

After all, if something goes wrong, there must be a demon.

This is Zhou Qing's valuable experience from fleeing these years.

After Liu Xingwang introduced him, he planned to leave. He felt that the task had been completed.

As for the rest, Dahe Village has a new village chief, so it is natural for the new village chief to worry about it.

So I decided to leave.

"Since everyone already knows each other, Xiao Zhou, I'll take you here. If you have anything else to know, just ask Uncle Da Jiang directly, and I'll leave first."

Watching Liu Xingwang leave, Zhou Qing and Zhang Dajiang fell into inexplicable embarrassment.

Fortunately, Zhou Qing broke this uncomfortable atmosphere first.

"Uncle Dajiang, I'm new here and I'm not familiar with the village, can I ask Uncle Dajiang to take me to find a place to stay?"

What Zhou Qing said was quite sincere. She was about to go bad. She was exhausted both mentally and physically after living in exile for so long. After finally establishing a new dynasty, she came to Dahe Village and her nerves were always tense. Only then did he relax a little bit, and this slackening was naturally accompanied by a deep sense of exhaustion.
