Chapter 288

Zuo Yang hurriedly asked again: "Where is the enemy? Are you here to attack Hezhou?"

Xiao Yunfei said: "No, I heard that the enemy has not launched a large-scale attack in the past month after the grain conscription order was issued. Female 001

However, if I persisted like this, I felt that the government army would definitely not be as good as the rebels. I came from Shuangge Town, and the rebels seemed to have a lot of food, and they also drank wine and ate meat."

"Where is the fragrance tea shop? How are they?" Zuo Shaoyang asked anxiously.

Xiao Yunfei glanced at him: "By the way, I forgot that you and the little sister of Qingxiang Teahouse are still unclear. If I had known that you were so worried about it, I would have gone to see them. At that time, I passed by the door of Qingxiang Teahouse. The door was closed. Now the people in the city are anxious about food. Who has the heart to drink tea? It should be fine."

Zuo Shaoyang said worriedly: "I have bought that fragrant tea shop. I must think about it. I hope she is fine. I am a couple. There is also a shopkeeper Yu in my store, the one who runs a jade shop next to the yamen. He also has a doctor in our pharmacy and his leg is injured."

"He, it's good, not good..."

"What's going on?"

"The legs are fine, but they look very bad and sad."

Zuo Shaoyang said: "I have lame all my legs." I must be in a bad mood.

Where is the old master Yiyique’s family? Is it my servant Zhier’s grandfather’s family?"

Xiao Yunfei stopped and glared and said, "Brother, I went to your house to find you as soon as I entered the city. When I knew you were up Guigu Peak, I immediately went out of the city and went up the mountain to find you. You must know this, I will first find out the people you care about before coming to save you."

Zuo Shaoyang smiled and said, "Haha, brother, don't be angry, I just asked casually. It's okay, I'll know if I go back soon."

Xiao Yunfei gave him a blank look: "It's okay." Old Master Zhai is fine, he is also drinking porridge at your house.

Xiao Yunfei led them to the mountainside, where there were rebel patrols and posts. Xiao Yunfei easily subdued the posts and took them down the mountain.

The scene I saw was shocking. The part below the mountain seemed to have passed a locust plague, and it was hard to see the green things. All the trees were bare boats, the bark was recorded, the leaves on them were brushed off, and even the grass on the ground, the food that could be eaten or not was teared off. Looking around, it was desolate. Dead bodies could be seen everywhere on the hillside, and the clothes were all dressed up by the people.

The four of them were in a very heavy mood and went down to the foot of the mountain. It was almost evening.

The four of them were about to enter the city before the gate of Tianheiguan and rush forward as if they were flying forward.

Miao Peilan looked at the deserted fertile fields on both sides of the road and sighed: "It seems that it is very hot this year, and it is time to sow the land." If you delay it any longer, I'm afraid it will be too late."

Xiao Yunfei said: "Yes, I have been here all the fertile land, almost all the fertile land has not yet been cultivated, the people have run away, and many villages have been destroyed by war. "No one is in charge of growing crops, they are all looking for food, it would be great if they can save their lives."

Zuo Shaoyang said: "You can't just focus on the front of you! If you don't plant crops in the field, what should you do this year? The bark of wild vegetables and trees on the mountain has almost been eaten up, so you don't plant the field." How can you spend this year? There will be more people who die at that time!"

"Yes, who doesn't know this? But who has the strength to farm now? If you send the rice seeds to these people, they will eat the rice seeds immediately! You'll take care of them first."

"Our family has 80 acres of fertile land, so we have to sow the rice seeds. "We must plant the land and harvest will be achieved next year! If we don't sow, it will delay the farming time." There will be no hope for a year. Now grain is the first priority, and we will talk about it after planting medicinal materials. In any case, we have to find a way to sow the rice seeds first. But "there are no rice seeds at home, where can we buy them?"

Miao Peilan said: "Before spring plowing, rice seeds were sold in the yamen, but this year it was probably gone..."

"The food in the yamen was taken away by the government army. I am afraid that there will be no food, and the rice seeds will not be left behind."

Zuo Shaoyang sighed. Without rice seeds, it would be useless to be anxious.

While speaking, he finally saw the city tower from afar. At this time, Zuo Shaoyang and the others smelled a strong smell of corpse. They couldn't help but look at each other. Xiao Yunfei smiled bitterly and said, "This is the corpse stench that comes from the graves of thousands of people. The corpses are thrown in the big pit. It is probably because the Minzhuang people have no strength to bury them, so they can only throw them away like this. The day has slowly become hot and the stench is not heard. Although the enemy does not interfere with burying the corpse, who has the strength to do this? The Minzhuang people don't know if the next one is starving to death."

Walking towards the city gate tower, you can see corpses starving to death on the roadside. On the official road, in small rivers, and on the hillsides, there are everywhere, some of which have been highly decayed, and obviously have been dead for many days.

The four of them came to the city gate in a heavy mood. The soldiers guarding the city were squatting and leaning against the city gate tower. They didn't care about the weapons falling beside them, and they didn't check the people coming in and out, but no one came in and out.

The four of them went straight to the medicine shop, passed by Qingxiang Teahouse, and the door suddenly closed.

Zuo Shaoyang felt uneasy in his heart, so he stopped, turned around and ran over and knocked on the door. After a while, a small fan was opened, but Huang Qin came out. He was already so thin that he looked extremely thin.

When Huang Qin saw Zuo Shaoyang, she immediately felt refreshed and staggered over and grabbed his arm, and started crying: "Where have you died these days?~Little sister..., she is almost out of reach...", "Ah?" Zuo Shaoyang was shocked, "What's going on? Where is she?"

"Upstairs! She is almost starving to death..., wuwu..."

"Didn't I ask Zhi'er to give you two food every day? There are eight buns every day!" Zuo Shaoyang said as he walked towards the stairs.

"Everything is..., alas! You will know in the future!" Huang Qin cried.

Zuo Shaoyang rushed to the stairs." The door of Sang's mother and the others opened. Ji's mother looked out. When she saw Zuo Shaoyang, she happily said, "Ouch" It was Young Master Zuo. I knew you would come. Our third sister was about to starve to death. If you don't come, you can only collect the body for him!" Zuo Shaoyang glanced at her and saw that she was fatter than before, but it was fatter, that is, edema, and it was obvious that her head was swollen like a pig's head. But she was in good spirits, and she immediately understood a little in her heart. She quickly walked upstairs and rushed to the door of Sang's sister. The door was closed. As soon as the shopkeeper opened, she saw Sang's sister lying on the bed, her hair had become dry and scattered on the embroidered pillow. Her eyes were closed, her eye sockets were deep, her cheekbones were raised, and her lips were chapped, and she had already lost her watery appearance.

Zuo Shaoyang's eyes were wet. He stepped forward and grabbed his wrist to take the pulse. The pulse was sometimes dissipated. He was already breathing. He shouted anxiously: "Little sister! Little sister, wake up! Little sister!" After a moment, Sang opened his eyes weakly. Seeing that it was him, he had an incomparable joy flashed in his eyes, and smiled softly: "Zuo...", "Young Master Zuo...", and his eyes were rosy.

Zuo Shaoyang turned around and said to Miao Peilan and Ding Xiaosan: "Leave the emergency room, you can hurry back first, cook a pot of porridge immediately, add ginseng to cook together! Quickly! Ginseng is in the pillow of the attic where I sleep!" Miao Peilan and Ding Xiaosan agreed and rushed out of the door.

Zuo Shaoyang opened the emergency room, took out the small porcelain bottle containing ginseng Sini pills, and poured a pill. This was to recover Yang and save Ni and strengthen Qi. He asked Huang Qin to bring a bowl of warm water, slapped the pills on the table, put them in the warm water, dissolved them, lifted the quilt, carefully picked up Sang Xiaomei, let her lean in her arms, and said softly: "Don't be afraid of me, I'm back, I won't let you die! Come on, drinking this bowl of potion can help you keep the breath of your heart! Then I will take it back to the medicine shop and make porridge for you to drink." Sang Xiaomei snuggled in his arms, looked at him with her undressed face, nodded gently, and a dry tears slowly emerged from the corner of her eyes, slowly rolled down her skinny cheeks, and fell on Zuo Yanyang's chest.

Zuo Shaoyang slowly fed her this small bowl of soup, then carried Sang Xiaomei out of the room and went down the stairs.

The mother of Sang stopped her at the stairs: "Young Master Zuo, are you going to take your little sister back? That's not true. The little sister hasn't passed the door yet, so you can't take it away like this. You have to give the betrothal gift first. It's agreed that 70 stakes of money, and you can convert the grain to five dou of food. You can give the food first before you can carry the person away.

…”

Zuo Shaoyang wanted to kick her away, but he still held back: "Did you eat the steamed buns I gave to my little sister?", "No........., that's what, that's the little sister who respects me. I'm her mother. It's natural for my daughter to respect her mother...", "Go out! I said, as long as you dare to eat the food of your little sister and Sister Qin, I will drive you away! Not only did you eat it, but your daughter was starving to death, but she was still thinking about the betrothal gift. She's not human! Brother Xiao, please drive her out of the tea shop! Sister Qin, you don't allow her to come in again!", "Oh, Mr. Zuo, I'm the little sister's mother...", Xiao Yunfei picked up Sang's mother with one hand and walked to the door and put it: "If I see you dare to go into the tea shop again, I will throw you out, instead of carrying it out like this. If you don't believe me, try..."
