On the second day, the wind was warm and sunny, and the people of Jinli Town, who were staying in the wilderness, lined up to wait for the servants to deliver the congee and noodles, all of them were a little slouched.
Except for the children who are happy in the fields.
The children who were still clamoring about going home last night ran under the blue sky and white clouds, chasing and screaming, sprinkling a string of crisp laughter.
This made the adults' irritable mood a little relieved, holding the porridge bowl and drinking, you look at me, I look at you, start to stay in a daze.
"I have to go to work in the fields today." Someone said.
It was in May that there was too much work in the fields, and a day of idleness would not be possible.
Lizheng was again surrounded by the inner and outer three floors.
"Lizheng, I have to the ground today."
"Lizheng, I still have to plant corn, so I can't delay it."
"Yeah, Lizheng, can you please leave me in the end?"
Lizheng was sweating profusely when he was asked, and only felt that he was about to have heat stroke: "Don't worry, it's still early. I will ask when the adults come."
Many people looked up at the sky: "What's still early, the sun is coming out, and it's still dark on weekdays, and I have to carry my to the ground..."
"On weekdays, on weekdays, on weekdays, I don't know how to move." Li was a little annoyed, and muttered.
When someone heard this, he immediately drew a question: "Lizheng, do you think our town can really move?"
There was a few drools in it.
Answering this question has almost dried his lips.
Finally waited until Yu Jin appeared, Li was busy saying: "Master, the folks are in a hurry."
"No hurries?"
Li Zheng smiled bitterly: "The prince doesn't know anything. May and June are when there is a lot of living in the ground, and you can't live without people."
Yu Jin never thought about these details. Hearing what Lizheng said, he groaned a little: "The villagers are fine to work in the fields, but remember to go back to sleep here after finishing the farm work."
Worried that these people would go straight home after finishing their work, he warned: "Wait until the evening, Li is remembering to arrange for someone to count the number of people."
Lizheng wiped the sweat on his forehead, and whispered: "Master, there are more than a thousand people in the town. If someone slips back, they may not be able to count them."
"try your best."
"Good, good." Li Zheng had to nod his head.
"Long Dan, you stay here to assist Lizheng."
Long Dan held a fist: "Yes."
Yu Jin glanced around, and left with Er Niu.
By the end of the evening, hundreds of people did not come back.
Lizheng was helpless and asked a few people to return to the town with a gong to beat them, persuading seventy or eighty people back.
Yu Jin spent the entire day in Qianhe County busy resettling the newly discharged victims. He only heard Long Dan's report when he returned to Wuji Town in the evening.
"So, there are eleven people who return to Koi Town after finishing their farm work?"
Eleven is one of ten.
"Master, that's the case. You said those people are stupid, you have planned for them like this, and they will go back and die."
Yu Jin smiled: "How can I force everyone to believe in a dream?"
Long Dan continued: "Later, Li was leading people to persuade seventy to eighty people to go back, and there were more than a dozen people who would not leave."
Yu Jin frowned, went to the temporary courtyard to take a shower, and went back to the house to lie down.
The summer night is very vivid, with birds and insects singing in my ears.
Yu Jin couldn't sleep, thinking about Jiang Si.
I don't know what's wrong with Asi, is his belly bigger? Is it easy to move?
Without him by his side, would he be unable to sleep like this?
Jiang Si did not sleep at this time.
Counting the days when Yu Jin left, her heart kept hanging.
What day was that cruel and merciless second earth movement? Or has it already happened, but it hasn't spread to Jingli yet?
The capital is not far from Qianhe County. If this is the case, the eight hundred miles will be expedited, and the news will be heard tomorrow.
She stroked her raised belly and turned over carefully.
"Master, can't you sleep?" Ah Qiao, who was resting on the ground, got up, put a pillow under Jiang Si's feet, and gently kneaded her calf for her.
In the second trimester of pregnancy, Jiang Si sometimes had calf cramps at night, and he pinched her legs when Yu Jin was at home.
Ah Qiao started the work that Yu Jin often did, and Jiang Si became more and more concerned about the person who was away.
"Sleep." She sighed, staring at the azure tent, and closed her eyes again.
The people in Jinli Town slept in the wilderness for three consecutive days. The people who slept in the tents were okay, and the people who slept outside were already bitten and covered in bags.
And the child who felt fresh when he first arrived passed that fresh energy and started clamoring to go home.
"Mother, I want to eat meat buns. There are only steamed buns and gruel."
"Baby dad, Nini seems to have a fever, so she said that she can't sleep in this wild place, and the child can't stand it..."
"Itchy, I want to take a bath!"
Complaints gradually increased.
In the afternoon, the situation suddenly changed and it started to rain.
In this way, let alone those without tents, even those with tents to shelter from the rain can't stand it.
Look at the rain, if the tent can withstand the whole night?
More people clamored to leave.
Li was thinking of Yu Jin's explanation, and flushed with a thick neck: "You can't go, the prince said, the town will move in the next five days at the latest. Seeing that the time is up, the villagers bear with me."
"Patience?" A tall man wiped his face, "It's raining so hard, how can I sleep tonight? Rizheng, please bear with you, I can't bear it!"
"Yes, I can't bear it!" Many people agreed.
People who were clamoring to leave gathered together and walked forward in the rain.
Yu Jin who hurried over stood in front of him, the rain soaked his clothes.
"Prince, these people are clamoring to go back." Long Dan greeted him.
Yu Jin nodded, wiped the rain that was about to enter his eyes, and asked in a loud voice, "The folks really want to go back?"
The sound of rain is not small, but his voice seems to be penetrating, falling into the ears of everyone.
The strong man shouted: "Master, we have lived here for several days, where did the ground move? Now it's raining again. There is really no way to sleep here. We are going back."
"If the folks go back now, the remaining half of the subsidy silver will be gone." Long Dan shouted.
The strong man shook his head: "I'd rather go back if I don't want it. My baby has a fever."
The woman standing next to the tall man is holding a young child in her arms, with a hat woven from grass blades on her head. Her face seems to be flushed with fever, and she is looking at Yujin with wide eyes.
Confronting those black grape-like eyes, Yu Jin's cold heart softened a bit: "A tael of silver."
"What?" Everyone was puzzled for a while.
Yu Jin said indifferently: "According to the per capita, in addition to the previously stated subsidy, each person who stays will get one or two silver."
Many people who were determined to go home wiped out a handful of rain.
A couple of silver can hold them in the ground for more than half a year. What is the rain? You can sleep here with a knife!
