I feel so good after dressing up as a peasant girl

Chapter 212 Relatives Come to Seek Refuge 7

This family also brought some food and money with them. With the income from Gu Wenxuan, they can make ends meet.

Except for the ignorant young children, everyone in the family bowed to Gu Wenxuan repeatedly with gratitude on their faces after she finished speaking.

They are all hardworking people who are not afraid of hardship. What they fear is that even if they can endure hardship, they still cannot survive in this world with their families.

Now that Gu Wenxuan has given them a chance, it would be strange if they were not grateful to Gu Wenxuan.

Gu Wenxuan smiled and stopped them from bowing to her. "The house I can offer is very dilapidated. It is an old house left behind by a deceased villager. You can just live in it."

The family shook their heads, waved their hands, and talked at once, "It would be nice to have a room to live in."

Baijia Village is so safe that they would be happy to stay here even if they were asked to dig a hole to live in.

Their relatives were also very happy. After Gu Wenxuan had decided with them who would work for her, their relatives immediately offered to provide them with some firewood.

At this point, Bai Lizheng's candidate screening work was completely completed. He put his hands behind his back, gave a few instructions to the patrol team members on duty, asking them to guard the village well, and then left with Gu Wenxuan and others.

What they didn't expect was that on that night, refugees broke into nearly half of the villages and towns in Qingshan County.

Early the next morning, Baijia Village welcomed another wave of relatives.

The first to arrive were Bai Jingzhou's uncle and his family. Their oil press workshop in the town had long been closed down, but they did not immediately come to the safer Baijia Village.

They knew that Ning Cuizhi disliked the old couple of the Ning family, so they would rather go back and live with the old couple than follow the old couple's wishes and send them to Baijia Village.

The old couple didn't care whether Ning Cuizhi hated them or not. If Ning Da didn't send them off, they would keep making trouble at home. No matter how many times Ning Da said, "It's not right for a married girl to support them," they just ignored Ning Da's words.

If they were not afraid that they would die on the way without the protection of their young and strong children and grandchildren, the old couple would have come to Baijia Village with their own bags.

It was not until Liulin Town was also hit by refugees that Ning Da was forced to compromise with reality and took his family to live with his sister in Baijia Village.

When Ning Cuizhi heard the patrol team say that her brother, sister-in-law, nephew, and parents had all arrived, she didn't even care about the burning fire in the house and rushed out.

Bai Chong and the two younger ones followed closely behind, so Bai Jingzhou had to stay behind to clean up the mess.

Soon his parents, brothers and sisters got Bai Lizheng's permission and took him back to their home.

Although Ning Cuizhi hated her parents, she couldn't really ignore them. After bringing them back, she vacated two rooms in the house for her own family to live in.

The two old people were fine, not even a scratch on their skin, but Ningda and his wife and their three sons were all injured.

Bai Chong and Bai Jingzhou were busy treating the injuries of their family of five. After Ning Cuizhi put her parents in an empty room in the house to rest, she hurried over to check on the injuries of others.

She did not tell her own family and her brother's family. The two old people had even complained to her with a look of grievance, saying how unfilial her brother's family was and that they did not allow them to take the car at the beginning and had to let the two old people walk.

Ning Cuizhi was so angry that she scolded them back without any hesitation, "Are your eyes covered with eye mucus? Can't you see that your children and grandchildren are all grimacing and bruised? The injured people don't want to take the car, but you two who are full of energy want to take the car. How can you have the nerve to say that?"

The two old men were frightened by her vicious expression and dared not talk nonsense anymore. When Ning Cuizhi slammed the door and left, they felt even more isolated and helpless.

The two sat in the room in silence for a long time, both thinking about their little daughter.

They thought that at least she would always speak in their favor, unlike their eldest daughter and their only son, who were both sharp-tongued and unfilial.

Ning Cuizhi didn't want to upset her brother, sister-in-law and nephews, so she didn't tell them the nonsense the two old people said. But after Bai Jingzhou treated her injuries, her sister-in-law immediately grabbed Ning Cuizhi and started complaining to her about the two old people.

She told Ning Cuizhi's family that if Ning Qirui had not learned Kung Fu well and had not set up some simple traps at home according to Bai Jingzhou's advice, their family would not have just been injured.

She thanked Bai Jingzhou, and then cried and complained to Ning Cuizhi about her weird in-laws.

"Those two will never change their selfish natures in their lifetime."

"When those refugees rushed in, my nine-year-old Qixing knew to pick up a stick to help us beat the bad guys. But those two people, on the other hand, saw that the door was blocked and they couldn't run out, so they simply hid in the house and refused to come out, as if the people fighting with the refugees outside were not their children or grandchildren."

"Poor Qi Rui, this little guy is more capable than me and his father combined. He rushed to the front with his big brother. In order to protect his big brother, he was beaten badly by those conscienceless people."

Bai Jingzhou skillfully treated Ning Qirui's wounds while comforting his aunt in a gentle voice, "Qirui has practiced martial arts and knows how to avoid vital points. Although his injuries look terrible, they are not serious."

Ning Qirui also endured the pain and comforted his parents and brothers, "My cousin is right, I just look a little scary. It's better for the stick to hit my arm and shoulder than to hit my brother's head."

His parents and brothers were all very nice to him. Even his most naughty younger brother was not unhappy because his parents favored him out of compensatory psychology. This made Ning Qirui cherish his lost family very much.

As for those two who first abandoned him and ran away when he was a child, and then held his parents back and prevented them from looking for him, and now are acting like cowards and letting their children and grandchildren take the lead, these old guys only want to enjoy the filial piety of their children and grandchildren but are unwilling to face danger with their children and grandchildren, Ning Qirui simply treated them as if they did not exist.

Of course, he would not indulge their bad habits, just like this time when they came to seek refuge with his aunt, those two old guys wanted to take this and that, but he directly rejected them.

Together with their parents and brothers, they put their stored food, silver, money, clothes, bedding, iron pots, kitchen knives, and hatchets on the cart. They left other things at home and came to Baijia Village.

As for the furniture and oil pressing tools which were also very valuable, they were so heavy that they decided not to take them with them.
