Chapter 62 He'an Mansion

Zhong Xiucai had never thought of adopting Ma Cuilan, so he was stunned when he heard her cry and beg.

Seeing Zhong Xiucai stunned, Ma Cuilan burst into tears and kowtowed to him. While kowtowing, she said: "Master Xiucai, Cuilan really has no way to survive. Please adopt Cuilan."

Ma Cuilans head was already injured, but as she kept kowtowing, her newly bandaged wound began to bleed again, which made the victims around her feel uncomfortable.

A woman stopped her and prevented her from kowtowing.

A woman spoke for her: "Zhong Xiucai, please adopt this girl. She is an unmarried girl. If something like this happens to her family again, she can no longer travel alone. She must find a kind-hearted and generous family." adoption."

"Officials should love the people as their own children, don't they? You are a scholar. In the eyes of us common people, you are just like the officials in the yamen. You can't ignore this girl at this time."

Yes, Zhong Xiucai, this girl Cuilan is so pitiful, just adopt her.

More than a dozen women tried to persuade Zhong Xiucai one by one, saying many nice words, which made Zhong Xiucai very excited. She felt that she was a scholar and a nobleman like an official. Should she be protected at this time? Rely on Ma Cuilan.

Seeing that Zhong Xiucai was praised, Ren Li was very pleased and said at the right time: "Zhong Xiucai, you are different from the rest of us. You come from a good family and you are a scholar with a good reputation. You care about the people most and your family cares about you." Good man, you dont have a daughter, so it would be great if Cuilan could become your daughter.

Ren Li sighed: "Well, my family has many people and is not rich. If my family were as rich as yours, I would definitely adopt Cuilan's child."

In the Chu Dynasty, the li chief could go directly to the yamen to meet the county magistrate. He was a local official and was a great figure in the villages of ten li and eight villages. In many cases, the li chief did not take the scholar seriously. After all, the scholar could not If you want to get ahead as an official, you have to pass the exam.New novel chapters are published on

Because of this, Zhong Xiucai felt dizzy after being flattered by Ren Lichang. He felt a little dizzy and said with a smile on his face: "Ren Lichang's words are serious. I don't want to see the child suffer, so I just helped."

Ren Li was overjoyed and hurriedly said to Ma Cuilan: "You kid, what are you doing in a daze? Thank Zhong Xiucai quickly. He has agreed to adopt you as his daughter."

The victims had no choice but to continue moving forward, passing through Pingning Mansion and entering the Jianghuai boundary.

Jianghuai is close to Jiangnan, so the disaster was not serious. The river water was only half full and did not stop flowing.

Grandpa San and the others burst into tears when they saw the flowing river. However, the officials at the Jianghuai border were afraid that the victims would cause trouble and did not dare to let the victims stay. Like the six prefectures in Zhongzhou, the city gates were closed tightly and they would not allow the victims to enter the city or provide relief.

The victims were once again desperate, cursing officials in Jianghuai and other places. After scolding them, they set off again and headed south of the Yangtze River, hoping that the officials in the south of the Yangtze River would open the city gates to let them in and give them a way to survive.

Hurrying all the way, they passed through the four prefectures on the Jianghuai border. When they arrived at He'an Prefecture, they were unexpectedly stopped by a large number of defenders and were not allowed to go further south.

The victims didnt know what had happened, so they had no choice but to stop and sleep outdoors on the outskirts of Hean Mansion.

Although the victims were curious as to why the government did not allow them to continue walking south, it was already mid-December, the real twelfth lunar month of winter, and it was so cold that peoples bones ached. In order to survive, they could only suppress their curiosity and start looking everywhere. Make a fire with firewood to keep warm.

Gu Jinli and his family found a piece of land leeward from the wind. They all worked together to cut branches and find weeds. When it got dark, they finally built a shelter for the night.

After they set up the shed, lit a fire, and boiled the water, Qin Erlang and Qin Sanlang, who went to inquire about the news, also came back.

When several families saw them coming back, they immediately welcomed them into the shed. Before they could sit down, they immediately asked: "Brother Qin, Brother Qin, what's going on in Fucheng? Why don't you let us continue going south?"

Qin Sanlang said: "The victims in the northwest, northeast, and south have rebelled and captured more than a dozen cities. Now there is a commotion outside. The court has no choice but to provide full relief."

"Jiangnan is the granary of Chu. In order to protect Jiangnan, the imperial court sent heavy troops to He'an Prefecture and Linhe Prefecture to stop the victims on the north side of the Huai River and not allow the victims to cross the Huai River and enter the hinterland of Jiangnan."

This is why victims were stopped.
