Chapter 313 Where to Stay
Chapter 313 Where to Stay
She had to live for her son. If that damned man dared to hold her back, she would make sure he died on some snowy day.
Er Lengzi was hit twice with a stick, argued with his wife for a while, and then suddenly felt a chill.
He thought it was because the weather was too cold and he was getting hungrier that he shivered, completely unaware that his life was now in danger.
They followed the people ahead of them for many days, traveling during the day and resting by the roadside at night, resting wherever they went.
Lin Cai and the others did not join the group. They had two horse-drawn carriages and one oxcart. The ox was brought back by Da Hui. After all, it was an ox, and its body was all meat.
If you ended up in a pile of those people, there probably wouldn't even be any bone fragments left.
In addition, there were also Little Black and Little Red. For the sake of these three big guys and the safety of the children, he didn't want to hang out with them.
The Zhang family, Dean Luo, and the village chief's family did not go over; the people of Gujia Village followed them behind.
"Da Long, where should we go next? We can't just keep walking like this!"
The village chief called Da Long Lin Long. At first, Lin Long was a little uncomfortable with this name, but he got used to it after a while.
"We've already passed through several counties, and none of those places are safe to stay in, but now we have to find a place to settle down no matter what!"
“I know. I’ve already discussed it with Awen. We’ll see how things are in the next county. If it’s possible, we’ll stay there.”
Along their journey, they saw many refugees, all heading south, and passed through many towns and villages.
But the soldiers there wouldn't let them in at all. When they saw people with their families and tattered clothes, they would use long guns to drive them out and not allow them to enter the city.
They tried to settle in a town, but the locals didn't welcome them at all and even told them to leave.
Unable to stay in those places, they had no choice but to keep walking, and have continued until now without finding a place to settle down.
They were all tired and didn't want to walk anymore. They all wanted to find a place to stop, and Lin Long and the others felt the same way.
So there was no need for the village chief to say anything; they had already been discussing this matter for a long time.
The result of his discussion with Gu Wen was that they would continue forward, and if they saw a town or village, they would stay there.
As we traveled south, the snow accumulation decreased, and the frequency of snowfall also dropped significantly.
Lin Cai knew that if they continued walking, they would soon see no more snow, but such a place was simply not big enough for them, and they could not possibly go there.
So all they had to do was find a simple village near that place and settle down there.
The Gu family village still has several dozen households, enough to form a small village.
But now they have nothing, so whatever they say is just empty talk, so they can only obediently find a place to stay.
As they approached, they discovered that this place was completely different from the towns they had been in before; the city gates were open.
Someone on the city wall was shouting: "Line up, line up! Everyone line up! Anyone who wants to go in can go in. Just register at the registration desk, there won't be any problems. Everyone can enter the city..."
"No, you absolutely cannot steal, and you absolutely cannot fake it. Anyone caught doing so will be severely punished. Everyone, line up properly..."
Those on the city wall saw the constant shouting below. If anyone tried to cut in line or cause trouble, they would immediately order the soldiers to throw that person out.
When they arrived, they had already seen several others by the roadside, and without exception, none of them had a registered residence.
Lin Cai asked Gu Dachui to bring out the Gu family's household registration documents. These documents had always been with Gu Dachui, but he only took out the documents for the four siblings.
The responsibility lies with her.
Upon hearing the question, Gu Dachui immediately took it out. Lin Cai glanced at it and, finding no problem, told him to keep it safe, as she would need it soon.
When it was their turn, Lin Cai let Gu Dachui go first, and after he finished with theirs, she handed over hers.
The person in charge of registration saw that there was only one person listed, so he looked up at Lin Cai and asked, "A female household registered by one person?"
"Hmm." Lin Cai gave a faint "hmm."
"What about your husband's family?"
"The man is dead, he's been dead for many years."
What else did the person registering want to ask? Upon hearing this, they were instantly speechless. A woman whose husband had died and who had established a separate household registration must have no children and had been kicked out by her husband's family. Otherwise, why would a woman establish a separate household registration for herself?
After the registration was completed, the person asked Lin Cai to go over and get a number plate, which they would have to hand over to the guards when they entered the city.
If someone doesn't have that number, they can't go in. Even if they have their ID registered, they can't go in without a number.
So that number plate was a pass for them; without that pass, none of them could enter the city.
Lin Cai asked Gu Dachui to put away the number plate. Just as they found a place to sit down, Lin Bao ran over. He came to tell his younger sister.
He had already made arrangements for Big Grey and the others. Once they settled down in the city, he could secretly bring them in.
Lin Bao also told his younger sister that Big Gray, that little brat, had found him a wife, a snow-white female wolf.
Lin Cai was stunned when she heard this. A white wolf had appeared here?
Has the white wolf, a resident of the snowfield, appeared here?
Lin Bao was overjoyed because Big Grey had found a wife, and he also saw such a beautiful white wolf. So he was still incredibly excited after he finished speaking.
Lin Cai was somewhat puzzled, wondering why there were white wolves here. Could it be because of a snow disaster?
Having received their number plates, they entered the city together according to their numbers. As they led their carriage inside, the guards at the city gate couldn't help but take a second look.
They probably haven't seen people fleeing famine with horse-drawn carts before!
After entering, Lin Cai and the others were led to their lodgings by people arranged by the government. The person who led them there pointed directly inside and said...
"See that? Go inside, that's where you'll be staying."
