Chapter 198 Official Road Blocked
Chu Ye and Chu Jiao were praised by the elder sister-in-law, and they were as elated as butterflies, and happily went to set the dishes and chopsticks.
Jiang Xinyan walked up to the eldest princess' grandmother and Jin Niang, "Grandmother, mother, good morning!"
"Yan'er, Xuan'er is early, grandmother likes this cloak very much, thank you."
"Grandma, what are you polite! The weather is cold, you and your mother should take more care of your health."
"Don't worry, Yaner, Mother will take good care of your grandmother, let's go, let's go to have breakfast."
Breakfast was made by Chu Xiao and several cousins, sisters-in-law and daughters-in-law of the second room.
Chu Hua and Chu Fang were making clothes early in the morning. Naturally, Chu Fang was forced by her sister to do it together.
The two sisters are very good in red. They used sky blue fabric and some cotton to make a long cloak for drape.
Sleeveless, neck tie, draped over the shoulders to keep out the wind and cold, the long hood is the cloak worn by rich ladies and noble ladies.
The long rabbit fur cloaks of the grandmother of the princess and Jinniang are hooded cloaks.
Because they are sleeveless, they made it very quickly. The two sisters each made four pieces in one morning.
One piece for Second Aunt Chu, and one for each of the women in their second room.
San Yiniang and Wu Yiniang also made two pieces each, one for each of them and one for Chu Xiao.
Chu Xiao saw that she had one more piece and gave it to Luo Yuqi, the sister of her savior.
Luo Yuqi was flattered, and the neglect he received from Zhao Yu was instantly cured.
"Thank you, Sister Chu Xiao, with this coat, I won't be afraid of the cold."
The grandmother of the eldest princess was very happy when she saw that the women in the first and second rooms had cloaks.
This October day, the day is fine, especially the night in the north is already very cold.
She glanced at Jiang Xinyan and saw that Jiang Xinyan didn't have a cloak, and the eldest princess' grandmother was unhappy again.
"Yan'er, why don't you have it yourself?"
"Don't worry, grandmother, my husband told me to make a cape for me from hunting fox fur."
Jiang Xinyan remembered that her dowry had a large cape of pure white fox fur.
It's just her, I haven't had time to rummage, so I'm not guilty at all.
Chu Lixuan remembered that she likes cloaks made of fox fur, and she said she likes pure black and red.
Fox, only white and red are the purest, gray and black are almost all variegated fur, white nine-tailed fox and fire fox are more difficult to encounter.
However, it was nothing to him, Chu Lixuan stood quietly beside her, watching her chatting and laughing fondly.
I still had bones last night, so my breakfast was soup with bones.
Each person received a bamboo tube, and now it was the exiles who shared the food.
Chu Lixiang squatted beside Li Jiang Xinyan and the others, "Sister-in-law, when I grow up, I will buy beautiful clothes for you to wear."
"Brother Xiang, I'm optimistic about you, waiting for your beautiful clothes."
"Does the grandmother have any pretty clothes to wear?" The eldest princess' grandmother teased her little grandson.
Niang Jin also teased her youngest son: "Xiang'er, you bought it for your sister-in-law when you grow up, how about your grandmother and mother?"
Chu Lixiang touched his nose, grandmother and mother, he really never thought about it!
Do you want to agree! But how much money does that cost! Can you earn that much?
Chu Lixiang frowned and tangled. He didn't know how funny his small appearance was in everyone's eyes.
Jiang Xinyan's heart was melted! She was so uncomfortable holding back her laughter, she was afraid that her laughter would hit the cute baby.
Chu Lixuan watched his little wife's shoulders tremble, he was not happy, and was about to say his little brother.
"There must be both! Grandmother and mother have both, but it's cheaper to buy than sister-in-law's. I'm afraid I won't be able to earn that much money."
"Hahaha"
"Ha ha"
The eldest princess smiled, her eyes were full of tears, and her face was full of folds.
Jinniang looked at the little son who looked exactly like her husband with a smile on her face.
Jiang Xinyan laughed backwards, this cute baby is still a tough one!
Why are you so honest? Is this really good? Would your mother and your grandmother be jealous?
Even the daughters-in-law of the second room and Chu Yue laughed and burst into tears.
Chu Lixuan never knew that his younger brother would be so stupid, he looked quite clever before!
Being cared for by his little wife, Chu Lixiang's previous sophistication was gone!
This is what the little wife said, it's childlike, that's all! As long as everyone is happy.
Especially, as long as the little wife is happy, it doesn't matter if Chu Lixiang doesn't grow up.
Breakfast ended with laughter and laughter, everyone packed up and left immediately.
Zhao Yu taught everyone early in the morning how to tie the quilt on your back.
Jiang Xinyan looked at the team in front, and there was a hint of the marching team in the TV series of the era.
The team moved forward quickly, and after walking for two hours, they saw the official road at the gate of Jicheng Mansion.
The refugees who fled the famine sat paralyzed on the official road, in ragged clothes, their eyes were dull, and their faces were full of despair.
This official road is at least fifty miles away from the city gate.
From here to the gate of Jicheng Mansion, there are densely packed refugees, one can imagine how many there are.
The city gates have been closed for more than 40 days, and the refugees are without a drop of food.
There were no corpses on the side of the road, not even bones. Presumably these people survived by...
Jiang Xinyan saw a woman holding a child of a few years old in her arms. She was so hungry that she couldn't tell her age.
That woman held the child tightly, as if she would be snatched away by someone else.
Jiang Xinyan took a closer look, the child had already died, but the woman just wouldn't let go.
Jiang Xinyan's eyes turned red. The refugees were just chanting, but they couldn't hear what they were saying.
They hate the injustice of fate! But there is nothing to be done.
Chu Lixuan hugged Jiang Xinyan, flew to a high place, and then looked at the city gate.
On the Jichengfu city, the soldiers held bows and arrows, and looked at the ragged and scrawny refugees under the city with a wary expression.
The people under the city are all expressionless, some look indifferent, some look in a trance.
They saw nothing but the idea of living.
If there was no locust plague, these people would not be so desperate, and the journey would not be so miserable.
I never saw the smoke curling up from the kitchen again, the hard-working people, the people who picked the firewood, and the driver who drove the car.
Those, especially fresh and beautiful, like a landscape of a painting, it seems to be gone forever!
That picture was only seen a few days before Jiang Xinyan came to this ancient times!
Unfortunately, at that time, she was not in the mood to watch, until she stabilized her mind.
What saw was the Asura Field where refugees were all over the place, and now there were no corpses.
"Husband, what should we do, this obviously won't go away?"
Jiang Xinyan asked worriedly, they couldn't walk past, if they cook something to eat, all these tens of thousands of people will come around, what should I do?
