Chapter 69 Something happened

 “Captain, the Chen family really ran away!”

Captain Sun's face turned very ugly when he heard this, "Immediately ask Converse to gather all the prisoners and count them."

“Go and take people to search the surrounding area. It’s night now, and they are unfamiliar with the surrounding environment, so they won’t be able to run far.”

“And you, go to the county seat quickly to find the county magistrate for help.”

“Captain, it’s not necessary. Just because we are from the Chen family, we have to ask the Wen County government for help. This...”

"Stop talking nonsense, do you think it's just the Chen family?" Captain Sun snorted coldly, but did not explain, "Act quickly, the consequences of being late will be disastrous."

Although the government officials didn't know what was going to happen, they knew from Captain Sun's serious expression that they were probably in real trouble.

Soon, Converse and others took whips, woke up the sleeping prisoners, and drove them together.

Although the prisoners were dissatisfied, they did not dare to have an attack. They could only get up and gather together.

Some prisoners had flashing eyes and clenched their fists tightly, as if they wanted to resist, but in the end they endured it.

 “Hurry up, do you want to die if you wait too long?”

"Snapped!"

“You haven’t eaten, right? Do you want me to give you a few whips to make you eat well, so that you can have strength?”

"Why are you staring? If you stare again, I'll dig out your eyes."

Yamen officials drove the prisoners away with curses and beatings, gathered everyone in an open space, and then slowly counted the number of people.

When Captain Sun came over, they had already finished counting, "Captain, there are ten people missing!"

"Why are there so many missing?" Captain Sun was furious and kicked the yamen servant down. "Are you trash? So many people have escaped at once!"

The yamen servants were in trouble. The captain went to the city and left with some people. Zhao Guang, Xu Tian and others also left. In the exile team, almost half of the yamen servants were suddenly missing.

How can they, with a dozen government officials, keep an eye on hundreds of prisoners? Even if they patrol constantly, there will still be loopholes.

It’s just that he didn’t dare to say these things and just accepted the training honestly.

"Watch them. If anyone dares to run away, have their legs broken first." Captain Sun said coldly, "Also, if someone can tell you the whereabouts of the escaped person, I can make the decision and let you eat in the following days. Full and full..."

Captain Sun’s voice was very loud, and the other officials repeated it several times, so that the entire exiled team could hear it clearly.

Those who didn’t know what was happening suddenly suddenly understood, and some people seemed to see hope.

Captain Sun ignored them, turned and left, "Let's go, take me to the Chen family."

 He wanted to confirm whether the Chen family had really run away.

 …

 “Girl, is this okay?”

  After countless attempts, Xiaodie finally succeeded in cooking it. The red oily water was filled with various chili peppers and spices.

 Actually, Chen Xue didn't know if this was a success, but seeing Xiaodie struggling for so long, she couldn't bear to hit her.

 “Well, it’s okay. Once it gets cold, it will work.”

 “Fluttershy is awesome!”

Hearing Chen Xue's compliment, Xiaodie immediately lowered her head in embarrassment, "It was all given by the lady, otherwise I would be at a loss."

“I just gave a general idea. You are the one who does it, and you figure out how much you put in it…”

"Okay, you two, stop bragging." Mother Chen walked over with her face and hands covered with dirt, "Xiaodie, I can see all your hard work these days. If we hadn't caused you trouble, you I could have left the Chen family and become a free agent."

"Madam..." Xiaodie suddenly knelt down, "Xiaodie grew up in the Chen Mansion. She was born as a member of the Chen Mansion and died as a ghost of the Chen Mansion. It was my decision to follow Madam and Miss, not because of the Chen Mansion. implicated."

"Okay, don't keep kneeling." Chen Xue quickly helped Xiaodie up.

"Now that we are in exile, there is no need to realize many rewards. From now on, if you follow us, as long as we have a bite to eat, you will never be hungry."

Mother Chen's words can be regarded as her true approval of Xiaodie. Before, Chen Xue took Xiaodie with her, but she didn't say anything, didn't object, and didn't agree.

Now I accept Xiaodie and treat her as a family member.

“Just take these two pieces of silver. Although it’s not much, you know the current situation.”

Mother Chen took out a piece of silver from her sleeve and handed it to Xiaodie. Xiaodie was a little flattered and said, "Madam..."

"Just accept it!" Chen Xue interrupted her from the side, grabbed the silver from her mother's hand, and stuffed it into Xiaodie's hand.

 “Save some personal money, and you’ll have money to buy whatever you like in the future!”

 “Thank you, madam, thank you, miss!”

  Xiaodie saluted and thanked her. She was very moved and shed tears in her eyes. It was obvious that she knew that they regarded themselves as a family.

 “Cough cough cough!”

 “Um, have you talked enough?”

Mr. Chen came over covered in mud and wanted to complain, but the three women all looked over. He swallowed subconsciously and swallowed his complaints.

“This acre of land has not been plowed yet. Let’s finish it as soon as possible so that we can rest early.”

"Why are you so anxious!" Mother Chen was chatting happily, then glared at her, "Didn't Xiaoxue say that? We have to wait for the seedlings to grow before we can plant them. If we finish today, we won't be able to plant them tomorrow."

That’s what she said, but in fact, Mother Chen just wanted to be lazy. She had never farmed before, and if she suddenly felt so tired from working, she would suddenly feel sore and backache.

 If she didn't take a rest, she would feel so tired that she would collapse on the ground and be unable to get up. Then she would be embarrassed in front of her daughter.

She is thin-skinned, everyone is working, and her daughter doesn’t even complain about being tired. It would be too...

 So, when she saw her daughter shirk Xiaodie, she came over. On the one hand, she wanted to be lazy, but on the other hand, she sincerely comforted Xiaodie and treated her as a family member.

 Chen Xue actually knew that her mother was very tired, but she never said it out loud. Moreover, unlike her own upright laziness, both of her mothers were working non-stop.

Therefore, she naturally had to speak for her mother, "Yes, Dad, it will take several days for the seedlings to grow, and we also need fertilizer..."

 This was her negligence and she forgot the fertilizer.

 Different from the previous life, there is no chemical fertilizer, only organic fertilizer, but you need to make it yourself and cannot buy it.

Hearing this, Father Chen realized that farming was not that simple. Although he was curious about why his daughter knew so much about farming, he did not ask.

Mother Chen also had the same expression. She and Father Chen looked at each other and felt a little worried. Originally, they wanted to train their daughter to be a rich lady. Although they did not want to be proficient in playing, chess, calligraphy and painting, they could at least be a little bit good at it.

 But now, my daughter seems to have gone astray. I don’t see how much she has learned in playing piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Instead, she is farming, raising chickens, chopping firewood and cooking, but she is very good at it.

 If this continues, will my daughter be able to find a good family and get married?
