Chapter 216 "The King of Mobei is cool and fierce, and the girls love and fear him" 10

The snowy days in Mobei are really cold. Fortunately, the Yu family has gradually adapted to it.

The tents were set up before nightfall.

Next, they have to live in tents until the house is built.

Yu Jinshu went to the city again and purchased a lot of supplies, especially bedding, winter clothes, and charcoal.

Sitting by the fire at night, Yu Jinshu said to his brother: "Seeing those Hu people chasing Ah Bai today, it must be the spies of the Hu people who came into the country to find out the news and prepare for the next robbery."

Mother Hua was shocked when she heard this: "What should we do?"

Father Yu Zhongming said: "When winter comes on the grassland, some people freeze to death and starve to death. If the barbarians cannot survive, they will naturally come to the border to burn, kill and loot. Although we are not on the border, we are not far away. If If the Hu people really come here, their target will definitely be Xiyue City."

Hua's face turned pale when she heard this.

Yu Yufan stroked his mother's shoulder: "Don't worry, mother, the people from Zhongyi Hall will not leave until spring. With their protection, we are not afraid."

That being said, there are so many barbarians, and all of them are cavalry, so they may not be able to escape by then.

Yu Jin wrote: "We will start building a house tomorrow, and a basement will be built under the house. If the barbarians really come, we will hide in the basement."

Yu Yufan laughed: "This is a good idea. Most of the houses in Xiyue City do not have basements. I heard that barbarians broke into the pass five years ago and burned, killed, and looted in Xiyue City, killing many people."

Yu Jinshu recalled the content of this book. King Huo Qi of Mobei became the King of Mobei four years ago. Since he inherited the throne and became King of Mobei, the Hu people have never passed the pass again.

It seems that the Hu people have endured it for four years and can no longer endure it. They have sent so many spies into the customs to investigate the situation.

His father, Yu Zhongming, said: "Building a basement is building a secret room, and it must be very secretive. Our family's former royal mansion had a secret room, and we had to have very knowledgeable craftsmen to build it. Otherwise, it would just depend on us." , I’ve never built a house before, and I’m afraid it will collapse halfway through.”

Yu Jinshu took out a piece of paper: "Father, this is the blueprint. You can see that the construction method is also written in detail. We just need to follow it."

Yu Zhongming took the drawing from his daughter's hand with a surprised look on his face, and looked at the contents on the drawing by the light of the oil lamp and fire.

He was pleasantly surprised: "This drawing is really detailed. Looking at the contents, it shouldn't be difficult for us to build it ourselves."

Yu Yufan also came over to take a look, and the more he looked, the more excited he became: "Father, with so many men, we will definitely be able to build the house and basement very solidly."

Yu Zhongming nodded. He raised his eyes and looked at his daughter with a deep gaze: "Jinshu, since you took us into exile, we have not suffered much. You have arranged everything properly. Sometimes you are so true to your father." I have the illusion that you are not my daughter."

Yu Yufan smiled and said: "Father, how can Jinshu not be your daughter? She has just become smarter."

Hua Shi smiled and said: "More than just a little smarter? Jinshu seems to have completely changed his mind."

After hearing this, Yu Jinshu thought to himself, this is really a wise daughter, Mo Ruomu!

She indeed had her core changed.

Although it is cold tonight, fortunately it has settled down, and everyone has settled in their hearts and will not be confused.

The Yu family members no longer complained and were all looking forward to a new life.

Everyone woke up early the next morning. The women made a fire to cook, and the older children took the younger children to play in the snow.

The men began to work on building the house.

Boys from twelve years old and above participated in the construction of the house.

Yu Jinshu and his brother looked for the most suitable location to build a house. After choosing the location, they marked the layout of the house with ropes according to the drawings.

The uncles dug some soil, and they went directly to Yu Jinshu and asked if this soil could be used to build a house.

Yu Jinshu looked at the loess and said with a smile: "The loess here is very suitable for building houses. Let's find more stones."

She was going to take some warriors from Zhongyi Hall to buy some tools for building houses.

In fact, they can also find some craftsmen to help build it, but if they want to build a secret room for refuge, it is best not to hire craftsmen to avoid being known by outsiders.

For three consecutive days, the Yu family worked together, and even the woman picked up a hoe, and dug out three secret rooms.

That evening, someone came over.

Fortunately, there were children watching from the front, and the Yu family quickly blocked the secret room with branches that had been prepared long ago.

Yu Jinshu hurried over and saw that the two young men who came were dressed as guards of Mobei Palace.

The guard looked at Yu Jinshu: "Master Yu, in order to thank you for saving his subordinate Abai, King Mobei specially invites you to the palace. You can bring your parents and brother with you."

Yu Jinshu took the post from the guard, a little surprised.

She came here for King Mobei, but recently she was so focused on taking care of the Yu family that she almost forgot about her mission of giving birth.

Yu Jinshu asked: "Is Abai's injury better?"

The guard said: "The medicine Mr. Yu gave to Ah Bai is indeed a miracle medicine. Ah Bai can lift his arms a little and his complexion has returned to its previous state."

Yu Jinshu smiled and said: "Okay, I will bring my parents and brothers there tomorrow."

When Yu Zhongming heard about this, he couldn't help but sigh: "I remember that back then, Huo Zhang, the father of King Huo Qi of Mobei, and I both worked for the emperor and won the world for the emperor. Later, the emperor named Huo Zhang and I kings with different surnames. , Huo Zhang is stationed in Mobei, and I am stationed in Lingnan."

Although the Yu family is stationed in Lingnan, they also have a palace in the capital.

The old, weak, women and children of the Yu family all stayed in the capital.

The day before the wedding of Yu Jinshu and Shen Jiangliu, Yu Zhongming and the men of his family rushed back to the capital from Lingnan to attend his daughter's wedding. Unexpectedly, like catching a turtle in a jar, as soon as he returned home in the capital, his house was ransacked and he was convicted.

Yu Zhongming's throat rolled as he spoke, and tears fell from his eyes, "Huo Zhang was so unlucky that he drove to Hexi five years ago. But I was even worse, causing my clansmen to have their homes confiscated and exiled, alas!"

Yu Jinshu came over and took his father's arm: "Father, confiscating your home and being exiled is not necessarily a bad thing. Although we don't have the glory and wealth now, we don't have to worry about food and drink, and we don't have the intrigues and fear in the capital. When we come here, we feel free and at ease."

Yu Zhongming wiped away his tears and laughed again: "Jinshu is right, now I like it here. In the future, we will take root here and not go anywhere."

Yu Yufan smiled and said: "Father, if the emperor regrets his words and asks you to return to the capital, won't you go too?"

Yu Zhongming had a firm look on his face: "If I don't go, I won't even return to the capital if eight large sedans come to carry me."

Several uncles came to agree.

The third uncle said: "After staying in the prison in the capital for more than half a year, I once thought that we were all finished. Now that we are here, I know that the further away from the capital, the more at ease I feel."

Some aunts retorted: "But there are barbarians here who are burning, killing and looting!"

The third uncle said: "I heard that King Mobei is the God of War in Mobei. With him here, there is no need to be afraid of barbarians."
