Chapter 27: crisis again
Chapter 27 The Crisis Comes Again
Ye Anlan had already walked past the boy, and when she heard the boy calling her, she stopped and turned around, "What's the matter?"
"Are you from Xiaohezhuang, right? I happen to be going to Xiaohezhuang too, why don't we go together?"
The boy was thin and thin, and he looked like a war scum that couldn't be carried by hands or shoulders. Ye Anlan touched the knife in his waist, guessing that the other party might want to find a sense of security from her.
She hesitated for a while, "Then you go faster." She was still in a hurry to go home for dinner.
The young man was a little surprised, as if he didn't expect Ye Anlan to talk to him in such a slightly disgusting tone.
However, he didn't show any dissatisfaction because of this. Instead, he really quickened his pace, walked to Ye Anlan's side, and walked side by side with her.
"Whose family do you belong to? Why haven't I seen you before?"
Ye Anlan glanced at him, "It belongs to the Ye family."
The young man thought for a while, "Then you should know my uncle and the others. My uncle's surname is Su."
There is only one family surnamed Su in Xiaohezhuang. Hearing what he said, Ye Anlan couldn't help raising her eyebrows slightly, "Who is Su Xiaohe?"
"My cousin." The boy answered subconsciously, but he couldn't help but wonder why the boy didn't ask his cousins, but his cousin.
Ye Anlan frowned, "Xiaohe and I are friends, don't worry, I will protect you."
Su Xiaohe is Xiaoye Anlan's friend, and at the same time, Li's half-disciple. Since the age of seven, she has followed Li's cutting, mending, and embroidery intermittently.
Her cousin, Ye Anlan, really couldn't just let it go.
The young man took a second look at Ye Anlan's dark face, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt as if he had seen Ye Anlan somewhere.
Thinking about it, the young man asked, "Did I meet you somewhere?"
Ye Anlan didn't hide it from him, "You must have seen me in women's clothing."
The young man frowned and thought for a moment, "Are you the eldest lady of the Ye family?"
Ye Anlan nodded slightly, "It's me."
The boy's expression suddenly became strange.
Ye Anlan didn't pay attention to the boy's sudden face change, she was listening attentively, carefully detecting the change behind him.
"They are refugees, there are at least five hundred people." Ye Anlan frowned slightly, "We have to go back to the village as soon as possible."
The young man was a little surprised, "Refugees? How can there be refugees? What should I do?"
Ye Anlan was a little impatient, what she hated the most was this kind of guy who had no ability but forced Lai Lai to question others.
Thinking of Su Xiaohe, Ye Anlan tried to make herself more patient with the young man in front of her, "It's right behind us, are you following me or not?"
Although the young man was still dubious, Ye Anlan's face and tone made him dare not continue to question anything, especially, Ye Anlan didn't wait for him at all, but already quickened his pace on his own.
The young man who had never been so neglected by others felt angry, but thinking of his own strength in fighting the five scum, the young man did not dare to play his temper. He quickened his pace and followed Ye Anlan out of breath.
Ye Anlan couldn't help but feel a little more satisfied when he saw that he was knowledgeable.
She hurried back to the village with the boy, and then went directly to Lao Lizheng without looking back.
"Grandpa Lizheng, there are about five hundred refugees coming towards our village." Ye Anlan didn't care to greet the old Lizheng, and when she saw the old man, Ye Anlan immediately went straight to Daoming's intentions, "Hurry up and organize people to go Stop at the entrance of the village, it will be too late."
The old man was hearing the news, and hurriedly asked his children and grandchildren to inform each household.
Ye Anlan couldn't stay out of it at this time, she took the initiative to accompany Lao Lizheng to the entrance of the village with a knife in her hand.
The young scholar who was left behind by her felt neglected and neglected. He changed his mind and simply followed Lao Lizheng to the entrance of the village to observe the situation.
Lao Li was acquainted with him, so he couldn't help but secretly wondered, "This is Luo Xiucai."
Luo Xiucai made a dignified bow, "The younger generation came to visit my grandmother, and met Mrs. Ye on the way, so I walked with her for a short distance."
As soon as he said this, Lao Lizheng's expression suddenly became a little strange.
A man and a woman who are not related by relatives should avoid suspicion when they meet on the road? Why do these two young people go to get together?
Uh, no, before he got tangled up in why they got together, he seemed to be more tangled up in why Ye Anlan, a little girl, left the village alone?
Could it be because of the Liu family that the child became disheartened and began to give up on himself? But she has a father and a mother, don't her parents care about her?
Old Li was stroking his gray beard, thinking about it secretly. Ye Anlan glanced at Luo Xiucai inexplicably, yes, this white chicken is actually a scheming one.
Although this kind of scheming seems inferior and disgusting to Ye Anlan, it is undeniable that in the ancient society where women's fame was especially valued, Luo Xiucai's vague words did a great damage to women's reputation .
At this moment, Ye Anlan's two-part love for the house and the black mind that was born because of Su Xiaohe was immediately extinguished by Luo Xiucai's act of death.

Lao Li was getting old, and his walking speed was not fast. When the three of them reached the entrance of the village, Ye Jinkui, who lived at the end of the village, had already run over panting.
He fixed his eyes on his daughter, "Yuan Niang!"
Ye Anlan waved at her father, "Dad."
Ye Jinkui saw that there was not even a trace of blood on her body, and the heart he was holding was finally put back in his stomach. He asked Ye Anlan, "You told Uncle Li Zheng that there are refugees?"
Ye Anlan nodded, "Well, I can see the figure now."
Everyone looked in the direction of Ye Anlan's finger, and they saw a large group of refugees rushing towards the village in small groups.
Laoli's face changed slightly, "Quickly, quickly block the entrance of the village."
The young and middle-aged men in the village heard the news and immediately moved a simple fence made of logs.
Ye Jinkui walked up to Ye Anlan with a knife in his hand, "Don't force yourself later." Although the daughter is extremely powerful, Ye Jinkui always subconsciously wants to protect her and prevent her from taking risks.
Ye Anlan smiled, "I see." It's not the Ye family's job to guard the village, she will only do what she should.
The father and daughter had different original intentions, but they quickly reached an agreement. However, most of the villagers thought differently from them. In their view, the Ye family's father and daughter had such high combat effectiveness, and they should have taken the main responsibility for the village's guard work.
If it wasn't for Lao Lizheng's pressure, these people would have directly pushed the ducks to the shelves, but now that Lao Lizheng was in the way, they could only silently hint to Ye Jinkui to stand up on their own initiative with their eyes.
Ye Jinkui immediately noticed the strong hints in the villagers' eyes, but he still remembered everything that Ye Anlan said to him before. In order not to disappoint his daughter, Ye Jinkui would not continue to know It's a clear loss.
