Chapter 44 (1/2)

After crossing the Wanhe River, Duke Qiao also moved towards shuobai village according to the address mentioned by Qin Shuo before.

However, on the way, he began to have some doubts about his daughter's words. Could such a remote place really have an ideal village?

Over the rugged mountain road, I also had to serve the old, only to be helped by his entourage to advance there.

Finally, after climbing over a small hillside, I saw a very secret valley. In the valley, there was a curl of smoke rising, which must be a village.

Outside the valley, there are still a lot of soldiers guarding. Most of them have iron weapons in their hands. Only a small number of people hold sticks and guns.

Although the management of iron weapons in the Han Dynasty was not as strict as that in the Qin Dynasty, it was a great thing to possess weapons on a large scale.

Even if he saw this scene, Duke Qiao didn't say anything. Now it's not the big man before. It's just taking precautions.

What's more, Qin Shuo is still the pavilion chief here. Once discovered by the imperial court, it can also explain that these are his subordinates.

After entering the village, he was stopped by the soldiers at the entrance of the village, and he had to ask him for an ultimatum.

Fortunately, many of the soldiers here had escaped from the city of Anhui. So naturally, they knew that the famous Duke Qiao was just interrogated and let him in.

Before that, Qin Shuo also said hello to them. If it was Qiao's family, he would let them into the valley.

But he didn't expect that it was Duke Qiao himself who came here. Before Qin Shuo had always thought that the Qiao family would only send a housekeeper to inquire about the real situation.

However, Duke Qiao also told these soldiers not to inform Qin Shuo. Now he is just like visiting in private in a micro suit to see if it is what big Qiao said.

These soldiers look very strong, from this point of view, at least in the military is ahead of many small villages, but there is no way to compare with the county.

From the narrow road, slowly forward, has not walked to dozens of steps, has reached the village.

At a glance, the houses are just like houses, the traffic between the fields, and the birds and dogs hear each other. Because it's 10:00 at noon, every family is covered with cooking smoke. It's really a scene of paradise.

Not only Duke Qiao, but also the servants on his side were surprised.

As an ordinary farmer's son, I naturally know the current situation of ordinary villages. However, where it looks like a village, it looks like a very rich scene.

Every villager's face is brimming with happy smile. It seems that they are telling others about their beautiful life. Everyone has a vision for the future.

Relative to the outside world, those insensitive eyes, those expressionless yellow faces, the people inside are already too happy.

Walking in the village, you can see that the shops next to you have basically everything they should have. The blacksmith's shop, the doctor's shop and the tailor's shop are all standing on both sides of the street, which is full of people.

The houses of these villagers are all neat and uniform, and only a few of them are thatched houses, and most of them are yellow mud houses that can keep out the cold in winter.

If my family lives here.
