The Female Officer Became a Farmer After Getting Reborn

The two brothers Chen Yaohui glanced at each other and made up their minds to follow Li Yu and the others.

The two of them made eye contact, nodded and said to Li Yu, "Xiaoyu, let's go to your house first and help weigh the grain."

"Okay, I'd like to trouble you two uncles." Brothers Li Yu and Chen Yaohui went out and saw the old man still standing at the door. Chen Yaohui looked at him and stepped forward to support him: "Uncle, why are you standing at the door and not entering the house? ?”

The uncle looked at Chen Yaohui and smiled bitterly: "I wanted to go to Xiaoyu's house to buy some food. As soon as I walked to the door of your house, I met Xiaoyu."

Li Yu couldn't figure out what to call him for a moment, so he took a step forward: "Old man, let's go! Go to my house to weigh the food."

Chen Yaohui supported the old man and walked together towards Li Yu's house.

When I arrived at the door of Li Yu's house, I saw seven or eight villagers standing in front of the door carrying baskets and sacks.

When everyone saw Li Yu, they bowed to her with gratitude, "Xiaoyu, thank you for selling grain to us, thank you."

Li Yu also hurriedly bowed and returned the gift: "Uncle, aunt, my family happened to be carrying grain. I will sell some to everyone at the market price last year so that we can tide over the difficulties together."

The uncle nodded and pointed at Li Yu gratefully and said to everyone: "Xiaoyu really saved our lives! The market price a year ago is several times different from the current price."

Li Yu was not used to hearing praises from others, so he hurriedly opened the courtyard door and walked in, only to see that the courtyard was in a mess. Li Qing was holding a kitchen knife and chasing a rooster with a bleeding neck running through the courtyard.

Li Qing saw Li Yu entering the door and shouted frantically: "Sister, why does it still run all over the floor if I cut it?"

Li Yu looked at the frustrated Li Qing and said, "You didn't cut it in the right place."

Chen Yaohui ran over, grabbed the rooster and checked it, "Ah Qing, you can't kill the rooster without even cutting its trachea."

Chen Yaohui helped Li Qing kill the chicken and taught him how to kill the chicken. Li Yu and Chen Yaozu came out carrying the grain bags.

Li Yu pointed to the sack and said to everyone: "I will keep twenty shi, and each household can buy four shi for the other wheat."

The village chief said to Li Yu from the side: "Xiaoyu, there are a total of sixteen families in the village who have no food. You can sell the remaining wheat to the families with the larger population!"

Li Yu nodded, "Okay, I'll weigh the food for everyone right now."

The first person to weigh and leave paid the money. When everyone saw that the person had paid 2,800 yuan, they believed that Li Yu had indeed sold the grain at the market price of the year before. They all bowed gratefully to Li Yu to thank him.

The news that Li Yu sold more than 80 kilograms of wheat at the market price a year ago spread throughout Xishan Village that night. Some people said that Li Yu was stupid and others said that Li Yu would be rewarded for being generous and kind.

Li Yu didn't care what everyone said, so he was at home preparing the things he would need on the road.

That night, Li Mei and Liu Changmin returned to Li Yu's house, and the couple helped grind and sift flour.

Li Yu fried the sifted flour into oil tea noodles, mixed wheat bran with flour to ferment, and baked it over charcoal fire into coarse grain cakes.

Boil the cabbage and radish with salted water and put them in a jar to make sauerkraut.

People in the village didn't even dare to open the doors or windows, and had to do everything with the doors closed. As soon as they opened the door, locusts flew into the house as soon as they saw the light in the house, filling their food with feces.

The heads of more than a dozen families were sitting in the patriarch's house. Everyone looked at the patriarch and village chief: "Chief of the tribe, chief of the village, do you think we should stay or leave?"

The village chief looked at them with a sad face: "The water in the river is almost drying up. I'm afraid I won't be able to see even a single green leaf when I go out tomorrow morning." The village chief sighed, "If the drought continues, staying here will lead to death. Follow Xiaoyu and Mr. Zhou Let's go, maybe we can find a way out."

The patriarch kept sighing: "Yes! We old bones have lived enough. It doesn't matter if we die, but the children can't follow us here and wait to die! Let's go! Everyone go out and find a way out."

In the end, the village chief, the clan chief and a dozen other families decided to go with Li Yu and the others. After the agreement, everyone took torches and went home to pack their things.

At the end of the ugly time, the village was already quiet. A dozen men with black turbans and masks walked in from the pass and walked towards the Xu family at the east end of the village. After a while, there were sounds of killing and crying from the Xu family. A voice shouting for help.

Someone from the Xu family rang the gong and shouted sternly: "The bandits are coming! The bandits are coming! Everyone, come and help..."

'Bang' and 'Bang' sound suddenly stopped after two sounds. The nearby villagers got up and hid behind the windows, looking fearfully in the direction of the Xu family. No one dared to step forward to help.

Zhou Jia, Ji Xiang, and Ru Yi stood behind the gate with arrow pots on their backs and oil lamps. Zhou Jia was worried about Li Yu's safety and told Ji Xiang: "Jixiang, go out through the back door and go to A Qing's house quickly. They live at the end of the village. I’m afraid I can’t hear any movement.”

"Young Master, you'd better go and hide first!" Ji Xiang looked at Zhou Jia who hesitated and refused to leave, "Young Madam, she is good at martial arts and will be fine. Those bandits must be here to rob the Xu family and our family. "

Zhou Jia looked at Ji Xiang and shouted in a deep voice: "If I tell you to go, go quickly."

"Yes, Master." Ji Xiang quickly turned around and left. Zhou Jia looked at Ruyi and said, "You go and hide on the female wall. If anyone you don't know breaks in, shoot him to death."

"Yes, young master." Ruyi and others jumped up to the female wall. Zhou Jia took a bow and hid behind the screen wall, looking at the crescent moon in the sky, secretly worried about Li Yu's safety.

Jixiang rushed to Li Yu's house and climbed over the wall. As soon as he entered the courtyard gate, he heard Li Yu asking: "Who broke into my house in the middle of the night?"

Jixiang walked to the door of the hall and whispered, "Miss Li, it's me Jixiang."

Li Yu opened the main room door with an oil lamp, looked at Ji Xiang and asked strangely: "Why are you here? What happened?"

"A bandit has entered the Xu family. If you are worried, young master, please let me come and take a look."

"A bandit has invaded the Xu family?" After hearing this, Li Yu became worried about Zhou Jia, "You can go back to my place and everything will be fine."

After hearing this, Ji Xiang felt like he was being amnested, and turned around and walked outside. Li Yu remembered that the arrows in his sleeves had not been given to Zhou Jia, so he quickly stopped Ji Xiang and said, "Wait a minute, I have something for you."

Li Yu handed the sleeve arrow to Ji Xiang and said, "You can let the young master tie it to your arm, aim it at the enemy and move the butterfly piece, and you can kill the enemy within thirty steps."

"Okay, I'm leaving now."

Ji Xiang held the arrow in his sleeve, ignored his surprise, opened the courtyard door and ran towards the Zhou family.

Li Yu closed the courtyard door, turned around and went back to the room, undressed and lay on the bed, quietly listening to what was going on outside.

Like an arrow leaving the string, Jixiang rushed back to the back door of Zhou's house and knocked gently, "Uncle Zhou, open the door quickly."

Uncle Zhou opened the door ajar and stepped in. He smiled at Uncle Zhou and said, "The young lady is very alert. She knew it as soon as I entered the yard."

Uncle Zhou smiled proudly, "That's right, and you don't even know whose daughter-in-law she is."

Ji Xiang ran to the front yard, and Zhou Jia came out from behind the screen wall and scolded him in a low voice: "Why are you back again? I don't think I can send you anywhere, right?"

"Miss Li asked me to come back," Ji Xiang explained aggrievedly, and quickly handed the sleeve arrow to Zhou Jia, "Miss Li also asked me to bring this to you."

Zhou Jia took the sleeve arrow and looked at it several times, looking at Ji Xiang in surprise, "Where did she come from?"

Jixiang pouted, "I don't know. I had already left. Miss Li stopped me, gave me the sleeve arrows, and taught me how to use them." Jixiang told Zhou Jia how to use it, and helped Zhou Jia. Jia tied Xiu Jian to his arm.
