Chapter 113 Make a decision
Looking at the crowd of people walking towards her, Yao Shu even had the idea of running away. Before the people arrived, she started to have a headache.
Unfortunately, escaping was not a solution. She could only stay in place with a stiff face. Soon her ears became noisy, filled with the sounds of everyone talking.
"Sister-in-law, we can't mess with this matter. How can we go to Zhangzhou?"
"That's right, that place is very dangerous. If it's not protected, we will all die there."
"Besides, that place is too far away..."
Yao Shu had heard so many words like this that her ears were almost ready to hear, but she could only listen patiently, and even explained it to everyone nicely.
But even though her throat was dry, the effect was not satisfactory.
Everyone just had the word "reluctant" written on their faces. Because of their trust in the village chief and Yao Shu, they were half-convinced.
It’s just that the place in Zhangzhou is so bad in the eyes of the people. The remote northwest is almost like a dead place in everyone’s eyes. I heard that the wind and sand are flying all over the sky in Zhangzhou, and there is not even water.
Their fear of Zhangzhou is engraved in their hearts.
Yao Shu is also very worried. She really wants to go to Zhangzhou. Not to mention the safety of the place, she can also unlock many new stores and get rewards along the way.
But seeing how reluctant everyone was, her worries deepened.
Going to Zhangzhou is bound to be risky. She can't force everyone to go, otherwise if something happens, everyone's resentment will not be something she can bear.
Just when her mind was wandering, she saw the Wang family brothers walking over, which cast another layer of gloom on her mood. The Wang family had rarely come to look for her before.
Unexpectedly, even they couldn't hold back this time.
"Auntie."
Wang Chengzhi and Wang Cheng all bowed and saluted, but still respected Yao Shu as usual.
Yao Shu raised her head and glanced at them, her eyes a little cold.
"Ah."
"I just want to talk to my aunt about Zhangzhou."
Listening to what Wang Chengzhi said, Yao Shu was not surprised at all. It couldn't be for other things to find her at this time. She could even guess what the other party would say next. It was nothing more than Zhangzhou. The remoteness made her give up this idea.
"You said."
"Zhangzhou is located in the northwest border, a place of exile..."
As expected, Yao Shu's eyes showed a bit of numbness. She had heard similar words too many times, but Wang Chengzhi's next words made her raise her head and look at him in surprise.
"We need to make more preparations on the way."
"Are you willing to go to Zhangzhou?"
Yao Shu immediately became energetic and asked blankly. She didn't blame her for this. This was the first time she saw someone directly agree to go to Zhangzhou. Even the village chief was a little reluctant before.
Seeing her being so surprised, Wang Chengzhi quickly understood the key and said with a smile.
"Of course I am willing. The world is difficult nowadays, and it is unknown whether the remote area of Zhangzhou may be another paradise. Besides, I have relatives and friends in Zhangzhou, so I don't think we can meet again."
The Wang brothers are not ordinary people, and ordinary people cannot afford to study.
Yao Shu was not surprised by this, and she was very happy to finally get someone's support. She immediately discussed with Wang Chengzhi how to go to Zhangzhou.
In order to settle the matter, the village chief gathered everyone together to listen to everyone's opinions.
"Zhangzhou is not a den of tigers and wolves. In order to live a stable life without fear in the future, it doesn't matter if we work harder. We have traveled from south to north. Are we still afraid that we won't be able to reach Zhangzhou?"
"We are going to Zhangzhou. I won't force you if you really don't want to."
Yao Shu made her attitude clear. As for how many people would choose to go with her in the end, she was not sure.
After a period of calming down, everyone stopped jumping in a hurry. They carefully considered what the village chief said and chose to believe what the only two smart people in Zhuangzi said.
What's more, even Wang Chengzhi, a scholar, feels this way, so he must be right.
Many people have been convinced, but there are always those who are unwilling to take risks.
"Village Chief, I have found a job in Yuan'an County. My whole family will be able to move into the city soon, so I won't go with everyone."
"Me too, it's very easy to find a job here, so I won't bother."
"Otherwise, everyone will be sent away..."
Everyone knows that in troubled times, it is safer to stay together with the clan members. The people who stayed behind also hope that everyone can stay, and they feel more at ease.
In the end, only one out of ten people chose to stay, and more people were willing to take risks with Yao Shu.
Looking at the results in front of him, the village chief did not get carried away with joy. He said seriously with a serious face.
"I said ugly things in the first place. I made my own choice today, and I won't be able to use this as an excuse in the future. If I hear complaints, don't blame me for being rude."
He was worried that things would happen again like before, causing everyone to resent Yao Shu.
"No, village chief, don't worry."
"If it weren't for my sister-in-law and you, we would have starved to death on the road. This life was in vain."
Not to mention repaying a favor, they can't be a wolf with blank eyes. Everyone doesn't want to do something that will be stabbed in the spine.
Hearing what everyone said, Yao Shu relaxed a little. She was worried about this situation. Most people were willing to go to Zhangzhou, and she was already very satisfied.
Now that they had made a decision, the sooner they set off, the better. The distance to the northwest was far, so they had to hurry up.
Early the next morning, everyone started packing.
Even though they didn't have much belongings as refugees, the noise they made was quite large, which attracted many people to look this way.
Because Yao Shu often goes out to inquire about news, there are also familiar people in this refugee group. No, the other party came to inquire about the news. Aunt Xiao walked to Yao Shu's side invisibly.
"Sister-in-law, where are you going? Is there any other good place to go?"
There were so many people packing together, and they didn't look like they were going into the city.
Although Yuan'an County is willing to take in refugees, there are conditions for entering the city. There are so many people that they cannot enter the city and can only stay outside the city. If there are other good places, Aunt Xiao will be happy to go.
"There's no good place to go, just go somewhere else."
Yao Shu didn't want to say too much. The two of them didn't have a deep friendship to begin with, they just got acquainted because of interests.
But with her covering up like this, Aunt Xiao became more and more suspicious that Yao Shu was hiding something good from her, and the more she wanted to get to the bottom of it, she pestered Yao Shu relentlessly and asked.
"You can't just hide something good from me. Sister-in-law, just tell me where you plan to go."
