I'm wearing it, but I'm still suffering.

Chapter 143 Liu Yingxiong came to inquire about the situation

After Liu Xiaoxiao persuaded Zhufu, she let him make the arrangements.

When Wang Feng and Feng Mo rode out on horseback, they still alarmed the other people who were resting in the camp.

Everyone walked together along the way, and no one suddenly left the team. Moreover, they rode out on the only two horses in their family. This behavior made many people have some speculations.

Villager A said, "Could it be that those two stole their horses and ran away?"

Villager B replied, "You're stupid! If those two stole the horses and ran away, would their families have remained indifferent? They were clearly arranged to ride horses to do something."

Villager C said, "But we've already fled the famine, what else is there? We have to do it now!"

Villager A asked again, "That's right! And we don't know when they will be back. If they don't make it back in time, how will their family members get back on the road? Are they trying to get away from us?"

Liu Yingxiong didn't want to listen to other people's speculations. He just felt that they must have discovered something he didn't know about when they went out at this time?

There are many people who have the same idea as Liu Yingxiong. Smart people know that the biggest reason why they were able to escape the famine so smoothly this time was actually because their village chief believed the words of Liu Yingcai's in-laws, and they also believed the words of the village chief, which allowed them to avoid many problems in advance.

Therefore, several people came to the village chief together and wanted him to ask Liu Yingcai about the situation.

Of course, even if they didn't come to find him, he was planning to go and ask. Now that the villagers also wanted him to ask, he would of course go there earlier.

When Liu Yingcai saw him, he directly invited him to sit in the empty seat next to him, as if he had known he would come.

After he sat down, without waiting for him to speak, I directly told him the words of blessing that we had discussed before.

"So now you know, right? We sent them out to gather information. If that's the case, you might need to tell the villagers. After all, they trust you."

Liu Yingxiong laughed and cried for a while, then said, "What do you mean by trusting me? It's because you're afraid of trouble. I asked you to be the village chief, but you were afraid of trouble. Now that you've fled the famine, you still want me to take care of these things. Really... Do you believe it? If you tell them about this this time, they'll only believe it more. I was forced to do this by you. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that you and your in-laws are the backbone of this team!"

Liu Yingcai comforted him, "Okay, big brother, stop complaining. I know you're saying this out of worry, but you have to stay calm!"

After saying that, he nudged him with his elbow, motioning him to look behind him, and said, "Look, there are many people waiting for you over there!"

You don't need to look at Liu Yingxiong to know that what he said is true, but they are just guessing now. How should he tell them?

Liu Yingcai probably understood why he was dawdling and said, "If you don't know what to say, don't say it for now. Anyway, we don't have a horse to pull the carriage now, so we definitely can't set off on time like before. If you don't know what to say, you can temporarily push the problem to us. If they want to ask, they can come to me."

Liu Yingxiong thought about it and realized that they couldn't move anyway before they got the news, so he waved and asked his son to come over.

Liu Yunpeng, who had originally come here with Liu Yingxiong, saw his father waving at him and hurried over.

Liu Yingxiong ordered, "You, go tell those people that your second uncle's family is out for something, and that we might have to delay our departure today. Tell them to stop making such a fuss. I'll go back and tell them once I'm sure."

Liu Yingcai didn't expect him to be so perfunctory and only sent his son back to talk.

But this is indeed a good excuse. At least he is sitting here and no one will come over to ask him questions.
