"Robbery!"

A loud shout, accompanied by the sound of a huge tree falling, suddenly woke up Lu Lingqi, who was drowsy in the carriage.

"Don't be afraid!" Her father's warm and powerful hands helped her to tighten her clothes, "Is it Uncle Zhang? I am Lu Yan from Lu's medicine shop!" After Lu Yan comforted his daughter, he introduced himself and jumped down the carriage curtain.

"It turned out to be Ah Yan!"

Zhang Laohu waved to a group of men holding hoes and kitchen knives, "I'm sorry, the flood washed away the Dragon King Temple."

"I heard that Yuzhai suffered a disaster this year, but I didn't expect..."

Seeing several pale-faced children holding wooden sticks mixed in the crowd, Lu Yan sighed, "When I came from Helan County, my father asked me to bring some things."

He waved to the servants on the second carriage, "The carriage is full of rice and grain, uncle, please ask someone to move it down!"

Ah?

Lu Lingxi in the carriage had never expected that the robbery that often cost lives in stories would end like this with her father.

She stuck her head out from the curtain and looked at the robbers.

The robbers were different from the tall and strong men with fierce faces described by the storyteller. Most of them were hunched over and pale-faced. If one of the old men had not been supported by a hoe, she would have suspected that he would fall down.

"This... How can this be so embarrassing?"

Zhang Laohu and others were so excited when they saw the full sacks on the carriage that they didn't know what to say.

"Uncle, aren't you being too polite? You saved my father's life during the earthquake that year, and he spent more than half a year recovering from his injuries in Yuzhai afterwards."

Although Lu Yan felt that the Lu family had given back a lot to Yuzhai over the past decade, he still couldn't bear to see these poor people who were forced to become robbers.

"Shame on you!"

Zhang Lao Hu and several old men from Yuzhai were ashamed, but they had to face this situation. Their stomachs were more important than their faces.

Since the earthquake that year, Yuzhai had no idea what bad luck it had. First there was drought, then there was animal disaster. In recent years, there were more insects than other places. It was not easy to have a good harvest this year, but they were robbed by wolves again.

Poor thing, the Lu family has been helping them since they got together. Now the old man of the Lu family is not in good health, and they really don't have the face to ask them again.

Unexpectedly, they have been thinking about them all the time.

"The Lu family is so kind..."

As they were talking, many people were about to kneel down. Lu Yan hurriedly pulled Zhang Lao Hu, who was the first to kneel, "Uncle, are you kneeling like this to shorten my life?"

This?

How could it be possible?

But if they didn't kneel down, they would feel uneasy.

"Da Niu, Er Niu, Heidan, Sida..., come here quickly and kowtow to your uncle Lu."

The eight half-grown boys threw away their sticks and kowtowed to Lu Yan three times.

"Enough, enough." Seeing that two of them had red foreheads, Lu Yan hurriedly pulled them up, "Hurry up and unload the grain to cook for everyone!"

"Yes, yes, unload the grain!"

The robbers were all happy, and even the old grandfather who was about to fall down could actually work with others to lift a sack of rice.

"Is this little Lingqi?"

Zhang Laohu saw the delicate little girl looking at them curiously and couldn't help but smile, "When you were one month old, Grandpa Zhang went over to have a full-month banquet."

Lingqi was a little embarrassed, "Grandpa Zhang!"

"You were so naughty at home, why are you pretending to be polite now? Come down and play!"

Lu Yan knew that his daughter had been sitting in the carriage for a whole day and wanted to get off the carriage. "Uncle, the three carriages behind are all loaded with medicinal materials. I heard that the road to Lincheng is a bit difficult to travel. Can you ask a few brothers to help push the carriage?"

Of course!

Zhang Lao Hu shouted, "Zhang Er, Li Tian, ​​each of you take five people and accompany Ah Yan."

"Okay!"

"Don't worry, wait until they send the food back to the village."

"Si Dan, play with Ling Xi, watch her, don't let her fall."

With food in hand, Zhang Lao Hu was not panicking. He was grateful to the Lu family and of course valued the children of the Lu family.

Si Dan, wearing shoes that exposed two big toes, rushed to Ling Xi very quickly.

"Si Dan~" The girl saw her father's closeness to them, but she was obviously more interested in her little friend's name. When she smiled, her eyebrows were curved like crescents, "Are there three more eggs in front of your house?"

"..."

Si Dan nodded slowly. He never thought there was anything wrong with his name before, but now, inexplicably, he felt a little ashamed in front of Lu Lin Xi.

It's not because of clothes, it's not because of food, it's because of a name, really...

"Brother Sidan, eat it!"

Seeing the boy blushing with only a pair of big eyes left, Lu Lingqi hurriedly took out a piece of dessert from his purse, "This is the red bean cake my mother made for me, it's delicious."

"Thank... Thank you!"

As soon as the red bean cake with a sweet smell came out, Sidan couldn't help but drool.

"Take it, you eat one, and I eat one too."

Lingqi was afraid that he would be embarrassed, so he touched another small cake and took a bite, "You are robbers, did you rob anyone?"

"Puff! Cough cough!"

The red bean cake that had just been eaten almost spit out, Sidan hurriedly covered his mouth, now food is expensive, how could he waste it.

"Don't be anxious, eat slowly, there's more."

Lu Lingqi hurriedly massaged his back, "You... just became bandits?"

"Cough cough..."

Sidan suddenly coughed loudly.

Lu Yan, who had been paying attention to his daughter, moved his ears and couldn't help but smile, "The wolf bandits were killed by the government outside Helan City, and we only knew about the situation in Yuzhai."

"Killed?" Zhang Laohu's voice suddenly became louder, "Really killed?"

"Yes! They seem to have offended someone they shouldn't have offended, and even the county city has mobilized troops."

"It's right!"

Zhang Laohu was too excited, "That gang of troubles! What do you think our poor Yuzhai has? There are so many in this area... Alas!"

The old man still hasn't figured it out, why did that gang of people set their eyes on Yuzhai, when there are obviously many rich families around here.

"We can't guess what the wolf bandits are thinking, but..." Lu Yan looked towards the village, "Uncle, Yuzhai is backed by Liangshan, and there are many medicinal herbs on Liangshan."

The Lu family's aid is really a drop in the bucket for the entire village. The most important thing is that they have to stand up on their own. "This time, let Brother Zhang and the others recognize the medicinal herbs with me."

"That's great..."

"Mr. Peng from Helan said that there may be a snowstorm this year. You can prepare as much as you can!"

"Mr. Peng? That's the one who made a fortune..."

"Yes, that's him."

Zhang Laohu's face immediately became bitter, "I'll go back and prepare now." Even if God doesn't give them a way to survive, they can't just sit there and wait to die.
