After Picking Up the Lucky Girl, the Whole Village Became Prosperous Chapter 143

 Chen Sanyou was carried to Uncle Jiang's house and placed on a bamboo bed.

Since Chen Sanyou's mouth and eyes were a little crooked, Yingbao took out the silver needle Mrs. Wen gave her and inserted it into Chen Sanyou.

Take the acupuncture points such as Dicang, Jieche, Yamen, Hegu, Tongli, Lianquan, Chengjian and Fengchi and slowly insert the silver needle.

 After the acupuncture was done, he was given acupuncture to bleed. Then he pried open his teeth and poured half a bowl of decoction mixed with Wudingzhi.

 Mrs. Wen also took Chen Sanyou's pulse and confirmed Ying Bao's judgment.

 But she had no medicinal materials and could only rely on her young apprentice Ying Bao's treatment.

Yingbao gave Chen Sanyou acupuncture and bloodletting. After the treatment, his face relaxed slightly and he fell asleep quickly.

 Chen Yin felt relieved when he saw that his father was calm and talked about the rogue bandits with Jiang Sanlang and others.

"Those bandits are so cruel that they kill everyone they see, including the elderly and children."

 Chen Yin wiped his eyes with his sleeves and said in a low voice: "They also went into the mountains to search. When I saw that the situation was not good, I took my family and ran into the mountains. I lost a lot of food on the way."

Jiang Sanlang was curious: "Then how did you come to Jiangjia Village?"

Chen Yin said with a bitter face: "My uncle said he wanted to find a remote village to seek refuge in, so he thought of Jiangjia Village. Because your hometown is here, we might be able to meet you, so we came here."

 “What about Chief Chen?” Jiang Sanlang asked.

Chen Yin: "The uncle's family ran away from us separately and got separated later."

There are no roads in the mountain forest, and there are bandits chasing behind them. Dozens of them are in a panic and they can't choose their way. How can they stay together?

“Dad suddenly fainted on the way, and we were all frightened. We were on our way all night last night, and we didn't expect to meet you, woo woo woo…”

Chen Yin couldn't help crying when he thought of the panic last night and the ecstasy when he saw the big deer and Yingbao this morning.

 Jiang Sanlang patted him on the shoulder, silently comforting him.

When Old Man Jiang saw that Chen Sanyou and his family were not eating, he asked his daughter-in-law to cook a large pot of rice porridge for them using his own rice.

 Chen Sanyou's family, including the elderly and children, totals more than a dozen people. Although they also brought some food, it was not much. Old man Jiang was scratching his head.

 But they were all from the same village who had fled and were acquaintances who got along well with each other. It seemed unreasonable that they should really turn their backs on them, but if they did, they would be gone after the little food they had.

Nowadays, bandits are causing trouble. Even if you have money, you can't buy food. And you don't know when the banditry will end.

 Sigh, let's take it one step at a time. From now on, everyone can only eat porridge. I hope it can last a little longer.

Not only Old Man Jiang was depressed, but Uncle Jiang was also troubled. With so many people coming at once, his family could not afford to entertain them.

 After drinking a bowl of porridge, Chen Yin calmed down and realized the problem, so he took five taels of silver and handed it to Jiang Sanlang.

“Third brother, I want to build two straw huts first, and our family will live in the huts. I know you live in tight quarters, so I can't let you get into trouble.”

Jiang Sanlang nodded, took the silver and handed it to Jiang Jiu beside him: "Brother, I'm sorry to trouble you. Use this silver to ask the villagers to build two shacks for Uncle Chen's family."

Jiang Jiu didn't refuse, took the money and went out to find someone for help.

 Since people pay to build a shed to live in, that's great.

The village chief of Jiangjia Village was also an enlightened man. Not only did he allow the Chen family to settle in the village, but he also allowed them to build straw sheds in an out-of-the-way place in the village.

Money can make a fool of himself, Jiang Jiu gave him five taels of silver, and the villagers all started to help, and soon three thatched sheds were built, with a few arm-thick trees as supports, and the roofs of the sheds were covered with thin bamboo and straw. It is windproof and rainproof. There were also two large bundles of straw stuffed in the hut to provide them with bedding at night.

 Chen Yin's family of four and his elderly parents share a thatched hut. The eldest brother's family and the second brother's family are larger, so they each share one.

Sister-in-law Chen was a little unhappy and muttered to her husband: "What do Jiang Sanlang's family mean? We live in a decent house but let us live in a thatched shed. How can we sleep at night in such a small shed?"

She has three children in her family. The eldest son is fifteen years old, and the youngest daughter is ten years old. How can they be crowded together with their parents?

 Chen Dalang felt unhappy, but his family was a refugee, so it would be great if Jiangjiacun could take him in, so he had the nerve to ask for too much. "Oh, let's just squeeze in. We don't want to live here forever."

 Sister-in-law Chen hummed, spread the bedding on the straw, and began to sort out the items she had brought.

Unexpectedly, in the evening, the patriarch Chen Fu's family, Li Dayong, Li Eryong and others rushed to Jiangjia Village in a panic.

This group of people consists of twenty or thirty people, old and young.

This time it was Jiangjiacun Muramasa's turn to be shocked and quickly asked Jiangjiu what happened.

How could Jiang Jiu know, so he had to ask Jiang Sanlang.

Jiang Sanlang was talking to Chief Chen and others, "So those bandits are searching the village everywhere?"

Li Dayong nodded: "We met many villagers along the way. They were from nearby villages and people from the town. Their homes were robbed by bandits.

I also met a country boy yesterday. He said that he was defeated when he led them to fight against the bandits. The bandits were so fierce that they almost didn't care about their lives. They injured several of them at once. "

“Third brother, you don't know that the wave of bandits we encountered before was only a small part, and now there is a steady stream of bandits coming.”

Li Eryong said: "I met an acquaintance. He had seen bandits holding animal tooth flags. He would pull them into the team when they saw them. If they dared to escape or resist, they would directly kill them with a knife."

Chief Chen: "So Sanlang, something is wrong. It's not safe for us to stay in Jiangcun. We'd better draw up a charter and get ready early."

He saw along the way that the bandits were attacking the village in an organized manner and seemed to want to use it as a garrison. If so, there would be a fierce battle here.

Jiang Sanlang thought for a moment and said, "Since we can't escape, let's go with them! We can't just wait for the imperial court to rescue us."

Chief Chen stroked his beard and nodded: "I think so too, but we have limited manpower and no weapons. How can we fight against the bandits with our bare hands?"

Chen Zhu came down from the battlefield and interjected: "There are wild bamboos in the mountains. Let's buy some ropes from the Jiangcun people and make more bamboo arrows on the spot for long-range attacks. As long as we kill the first batch, we will have melee weapons. ”

Jiang Sanlang suddenly recalled his sneak attack on Chen Guanglu. He thought for a while and said: "If we can't do it openly, let's do it secretly. We can't just sit back and wait for death. Bandits are people too, and they also need to sleep and rest. We might as well strike first." Attack them sneakily."

 “This is feasible.” Chen Zhu agreed.

Ying Baobao listened to their conversation at the door and began to think about it.

The thieves not only have to sleep, but also have to eat. Since they are attacking in an organized manner, the food they robbed will definitely be handed over to the people in power for unified distribution and management. It would be great if they could find the place where they store food, and they can take it all into the cave. .

 But this can only be thought about, and it is difficult to put it into practice.

"Yingbao, what are you doing?" Wei Zhan ran over and asked curiously when he saw the girl sneaking behind the door.

Ying Bao walked over as if nothing happened, "Nothing happened."

“Then what are you doing hiding behind the door?” Wei Zhan blinked and asked.

“None of your business!” Ying Bao looked at the boy sideways, considering whether to sew his mouth shut.
