My whole family has crossed with Goldfinger

Manager Xiao took a few steps up the steps, took a few breaths, and hurriedly said: "Shopkeeper Xu, that's exactly why I came here. The person who delivered the letter to Yunzhou came back yesterday. Your letter failed." Deliver it, and bring it back."

As he spoke, he took out the letter from his pocket and handed it to Shopkeeper Xu.

Old man Xu was taken aback, a little disbelieving, but seeing that the inscription on the letter was still in his grandson's handwriting, this letter was indeed the one he sent out, not a reply letter.

His mouth became anxious: "How could it not be delivered? Did the person you sent remember the address? Daohua Village, Gan Town, Wuning Prefecture! Just this address, why didn't it be delivered?"

Guanshi Xiao said: "That's the address! That's right! But when the messenger entered the village, he never found the Zhao family you mentioned, and went to the Majia Village next door as you said, and there was no one in Ma Da'an's house. "

As he spoke, he pulled out the person following him, pointed at him and said, "Here, this is the person who went to your job. I brought it to you, just in case you don't believe me, so you can ask him about the situation yourself." Bar."

Old man Xu was in a panic, and a cold sweat broke out on his back for no reason, obviously he was still cold today.

He hurriedly looked at the man and asked about the situation.

The man said: "There are no people left in Daohua Village and Majia Village. Eight out of ten households in the entire village are empty. I asked a family at the entrance of the village to ask about the Zhao family. The person also knew him. He said it was as early as last year. Their family escaped from famine and never went back!
I also inquired about the situation of Ma Da'an's family with a person in their village, and their family also fled from the famine.

It's not just shopkeeper Xu's letter, but several letters that were going to be sent in that direction have not been sent, but they have all been brought back!
In short, all the way I went, the villages at the bottom of Yunzhou were almost empty. There were refugees walking on the road during the Chinese New Year. It is better to have a house on the land than to live outside.

However, there are few refugees going back. If you didn't look at it like that, it's miserable!

I stayed in Gan Town for two days, so I wanted to try my luck and see if I could find someone. After all, I still need to deliver the letter to someone, right?
It's a pity that I haven't been able to find out the news, but I heard people say that the disaster in the entire Wuning Mansion is the worst. At that time, everyone was gone. Those big families, such as the county government, were all given by bandits. Oh, let alone those landlords!
At the bottom of the town, I heard that there was a landlord surnamed Wang, not only the food was rushed in and robbed by the bandits, but the whole family was killed even the long-term workers!
I've heard people say that those who fled the famine early still have a way to survive, but those who leave behind are more likely to be in danger! "

"Master Xu's!!!"

Seeing old man Xu's pale face and finally rolling his eyes back, Guanshi Xiao was startled. He hurriedly put his hands on someone to support him, while glaring at himself, telling him to stop talking.

Inside, Xu Erlang came out after hearing the commotion, and was startled when he saw his grandfather's appearance, so he hurried up to pick him up, "What's wrong!"

Manager Xiao explained the situation to him in a few words, "I reckon that shopkeeper Xu was frightened and couldn't bear it, so what, you can help him in and rest, I'll drop by and call you a doctor, I believe in Zhuang's affairs There are too many, so I won’t stay any longer, when your grandfather wakes up, if you have any questions, just come anytime.”

After finishing speaking, he let go of the old man Xu who was supporting him, and hurriedly pulled the man away. When he got down the steps, he couldn't help scolding the man: "Let you tell the situation, just say that you didn't find the Zhao family and Ma's house." Hey, what are you doing so much nonsense? It’s good to scare people out of you, so beware of people making trouble for you!”

That guy is a real person, muttering: "Let me tell you the situation, I must tell the truth, or what if people insist that I am lazy and didn't deliver the letter on purpose? Besides, what I said is good Well, I listened to it, it was even more shocking! There are people who cannibals smashed people's bones to eat! I didn't even say..."

"Okay, just shut up!"

The two of them walked away while talking, and the wind brought back only a few words, which just happened to get into the ears of the staring old man Xu, and immediately, the whole person passed away.

Old man Xu fell into a coma, his face was as white as snow, but he frightened Xu Chunlin and others in the shop.

Xu Yinyin almost asked Xu Erlang to take a car back to the village to call Xu Chunhe, and asked Xixin to go back to Qingyunfang to call Xu Chunshan, and then to Jinyufang to call Xu Old Madam.

Fortunately, the doctor has seen it, and said that the fainting caused by the stagnation of liver qi due to stimulation is not a serious problem. A silver needle can make people wake up, and then told them to relax and try to avoid further stimulation, so it was prescribed. Vice-soothing medicine to drink.

Xu Chunlin sent the doctor out, and went to grab the medicine along the way.

Xu Yinyin was sitting by the bed, looking at the old man Xu who had a bad face on the bed, and asked worriedly: "Grandpa, what's the matter with you? I heard from the second brother that the steward of Xinzhuang who delivered the letter to my sister-in-law is here?"

Mr. Xu was dizzy for a while, and now his mood is much more stable. He has never seen a stormy situation. If this is not stable, he will not have the courage to sell houses and land at the stall last year and choose to take the whole family to flee famine. .

They were the group that left early, but they didn't leave for a few days. How many refugees were there on the way?
I dare not imagine what it would be like to escape from famine later than them.

If he had known earlier, if he had known earlier, he should have toughened his heart and asked the boss and the others to take Chunxi and the child away together!

But money is hard to buy, I knew it earlier.

Now I can only hope that Chunxi's family will be happy and happy, and they will settle down safely, just like them.

When Xu Yinyin heard about this, she comforted the old man Xu and said, "Don't worry, grandpa, I believe my sister-in-law and her family are doing well! Hard work pays off, we will definitely find them!"

But in fact, she was not surprised by this result. She had discussed this matter with Xu Dajun as early as when delivering the letter. As it rained only at the beginning of the twelfth lunar month in Yunzhou, it was almost impossible to stay in the village without fleeing famine. Sooner or later That's all.

I just don't know what happened when I escaped.

I just hope it is good, otherwise, not to mention the old man Xu, but the old lady Xu will definitely not be able to bear it and will be seriously ill.

The old man Xu was also afraid that his wife would not be able to bear it, so he told Xu Yinyin carefully, don't tell anyone about the incident of Xinzhuang steward's visit, just say that there is no news, and wait for him to think of a way to talk about it later.

And what to do?

The only way old man Xu can think of is to ask someone to continue to inquire.

After drinking the medicine and cheering himself up, he went out to find Fang Changxu in the government office.

He couldn't do anything else for the time being, but Yiyang Prefecture, the counties below, where would Chunxi's family be?And the in-laws.

Last year, before the backer king wanted to enter Qingzhou, Jiang Zhoumu issued a document to provide disaster relief, asking all the prefectures and counties to properly resettle all the refugees under their jurisdiction.

Yiyang government does not know how many refugees have been resettled.

Fang Changxu is the clerk of the household house, and he has more ways to inquire about this matter than others.

He has no one to rely on, so I can only ask him for help.
