Planting a fairy in ancient times

Chapter 406 432. Qingfeng Returns Home
The next day, Chen Qingfeng took his wife and children and left Pingjiang mansion in a mule cart.

Before leaving, Chen Qingfeng made a special trip to Liuye Lane, and left the house key to Chen Qingluan, asking Chen Qingluan to take care of the house when he was free.

Chen Qingluan agreed.

Pingjiang Mansion is not far from Changzhou County, usually, it only takes three days by mule cart.

But this time, for some unknown reason, along the way, Chen Qingfeng encountered several waves of robbers.

Fortunately, Chen Qingfeng was very skillful with his hands and feet, so he rushed over with his wife and children.

It took five days for Chen Qingfeng and his party to return to Changzhou County.

As soon as he entered Changzhou County, Chen Qingfeng noticed something was wrong.

The busiest Huihui Street in the county was actually deserted, with few pedestrians to be seen.

"Qingfeng, look~!" Huang Yuejiao pointed at the white pots all over the street, her voice trembling.

How could so many people die for no reason in the county?
Those rebels must have been to Changzhou County, right?

"Yuejiao, let's go home first, and visit our father-in-law and mother-in-law in a few days." Chen Qingfeng said.

Originally, on the way, Huang Yuejiao and Chen Qingfeng agreed that when they arrived in Changzhou County, they would go to Huang Yuejiao's family first, and then return to Xinghua Village.

But now, Chen Qingfeng was very worried about Chen Daniu and his wife, wishing they could give birth to a pair of wings and go home immediately.

"Qingfeng~! There is someone in front, let's ask what's going on first, okay?" Huang Yuejiao begged.

Another block away is the Huang family's grocery store, and Huang Yuejiao is eager to return now.

Chen Qingfeng looked up, and saw the shopkeeper Wang of "Weixiangju" standing on the side of the street in a daze.

To Chen Qingfeng's surprise, the original quaint "Weixiangju" has now become a piece of scorched black broken tiles.

"Uncle Wang, what happened?" Chen Qingfeng jumped out of the car and asked.

When Chen Qingfeng was a yamen servant in Changzhou County, he would often eat at "Weixiangju" with his colleagues, and he had a pretty good relationship with shopkeeper Wang.

"Qingfeng! Where are you from?" Shopkeeper Wang couldn't help asking when he saw Chen Qingfeng's dusty appearance.

"Uncle Wang, we went to Fucheng some time ago and just came back. How did your "Weixiangju" become like this?" Chen Qingfeng asked.

"It's not those damn bastards!" Shopkeeper Wang said angrily: "Yesterday morning, a group of soldiers came from nowhere. It was quick and saved his life. But the "Weixiangju" passed down from the ancestors was burned to the ground by those people."

"What?" Chen Qingfeng was startled.

The people shopkeeper Wang mentioned must not be the Wu Wang rebels they met in Fucheng, right?

"Qingfeng! Hurry up and go home and have a look! I don't know if those damned **** have gone to the surrounding villages to make trouble after they left the county." Shopkeeper Wang reminded.

"Thank you, Uncle Wang." Chen Qingfeng originally turned around and wanted to leave, but when he saw shopkeeper Wang's sad look, he couldn't help turning around and persuading him: "Uncle Wang, you have to relax, as long as you are here, the shop will be able to make money one day .”

"Yes, compared to those who lost their lives, my family is considered lucky." Shopkeeper Wang said with a wry smile.

After Chen Qingfeng got into the mule cart, Huang Yuejiao asked, "Husband, have you asked? Is there anything wrong with my natal family?"

Chen Qingfeng glanced at Huang Yuejiao, didn't speak, just turned the mule cart around, and drove quickly to Xinghua Village.

Huang Yuejiao wanted to say something more, but seeing Chen Qingfeng's gloomy face, she thought about it but didn't dare to say anything.

As soon as he reached the door of the house, Chen Qingfeng hurriedly jumped out of the mule cart and ran into the house.

"Father~! Mother~!" Chen Qingfeng shouted loudly while running.

Xiao Li was wearing her favorite clothes, standing on the stool, and was about to hang her head on the noose.

Hearing Chen Qingfeng's voice, Xiao Li's movements stopped.

"Father, mother, my son is back." Chen Qingfeng's voice sounded outside.

"Son!" Xiao Li murmured, jumped off the stool and stumbled out.

"Mother~!" Chen Qingfeng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief seeing that Mrs. Li was doing well.

Seeing the desolate scene in Changzhou County, Chen Qingfeng was really afraid that he would be late when he came back.

"Son! Why are you back? How are you living in Fucheng?" Xiao Li touched Chen Qingfeng's face with trembling hands and asked.

"What's so good! Mother-in-law, this time, we have suffered a great crime. The vicious rebels invaded Fucheng, and we were almost killed by the rebels!" Huang Yuejiao said dissatisfied.

"Shut up!" Seeing Xiao Li's pale face, Chen Qingfeng couldn't help turning his head around, and yelled at Huang Yuejiao.

Huang Yuejiao curled her lips and stood aside.

Don't let me say it after suffering a crime?She couldn't do it anyway.

"Son! What's going on?" Mrs. Li grabbed Chen Qingfeng's arm and asked.

"Mother, the Fucheng was breached by the rebels, but fortunately, there was a "Master Fairy" passing by, and there were no casualties in the Pingjiang Fucheng." Chen Qingfeng explained simply.

"Thanks to the blessing of Lord Fairy!" Mrs. Li clasped her hands together, and bowed devoutly in the direction of Wutong Mountain a few times.

"Son, didn't your father tell you to live in Pingjiang Fucheng for a period of time, and you will come back when Xiaoyu and the others return to their hometown?" Xiao Li asked.

"Mother, my child's mother and I are worried about you every day in Fucheng, so I came back to take a look." Chen Qingfeng looked around, but he didn't see Chen Daniu, so he couldn't help asking: "Mother, where is my father? Has he gone out?"

"Your father... died, and the funeral was just held yesterday." Mrs. Li said sadly.

Xiao Li's words made Chen Qingfeng's legs go limp, and he knelt directly to the ground.

Chen Daniu was killed by the rebels.

Three days ago, a group of soldiers broke into Xinghua Village.

Chen Daniu's house is at the head of the village, and it's a brick and tile house.

The soldiers robbed them as soon as they entered the house.

The servant of the family stepped forward to stop him and was killed by the soldiers.

Chen Daniu came out of the study when he heard the movement, and reprimanded him, but was also killed by the soldiers.

The soldiers killed so violently that no one was left alive for Chen Daniu's family. Chen Daniu and a dozen servants all became souls killed by the sword.

Not to mention this, the soldiers also looted all the money of Chen Daniu's family, even the grain in the granary, and all the livestock such as chickens and ducks.

The soldiers roared away after looting the village.

Mrs. Li had a sore throat that day, so she went to Dr. Lin's house at the foot of Wutong Mountain to get medicine, and just escaped the catastrophe.

Chen Daniu's funeral was organized with the help of the surviving villagers of Xinghua Village.

The house was empty, not even a grain of food was left.

Xiao Li's thoughts were all hopeless, before Chen Qingfeng came back, Xiao Li was about to step on a stool and hang herself!
"Mother, my son is not filial! My son shouldn't leave home." Chen Qingfeng couldn't help crying loudly after hearing what Xiao Li said.
