Chapter 203: Escape
When Tao Jiaren heard this, she immediately understood. Indeed, if one couldn’t survive, who would leave their hometown and run to Dongzhou?

"Dongzhou is a vast land with few people. It's not difficult to settle down, but it's difficult to make a living here."

Tao Jiaren didn't want to say such things, and she shouldn't say them to Bai Tao, but as they chatted, she found that Bai Tao was extremely intelligent.

Being able to bring a whole village here without losing a single person along the way and taking excellent care of the old, the young, the women and the children, cannot be achieved by just being smart.

Bai Tao smiled and said, "Let's find a place to settle down first."

Tao Jiaren: "Are you all from the same village?"

It feels like this group of people seem to be divided into two factions.

"Not all of them." Bai Tao: "Some of them followed our caravan to escape. They fled all the way and had nowhere to go, so they came to Dongzhou with us."

Knowing that Bai Tao and his party's destination was Junji Town, Tao Jiaren immediately frowned and said disapprovingly: "Junji Town has a nice name, but it's not far from the border of Liang State, and it's very chaotic."

"Although I don't like dealing with the government, I can ask you about the reception situation in Majing City."

As if she was afraid that Bai Tao might not understand what she meant, Tao Jiaren explained, "I trained a group of horses for Ma Jingcheng before, so I can speak more or less."

"No need to trouble Sister Tao." Bai Tao smiled cutely and said without thinking: "We still decided to go to Junji Town."

Let it be chaos, if it isn't chaos, how can the people in her Taohua Village occupy the mountain and act like kings? Bah, it's about convincing people with reason.

Although Tao Jiaren wanted to say something, she changed her mind and realized that the little cutie was young, and even if he was smart, he might not be able to think of so many things. It would be better for her to find a chance to talk to other people.

But Tao Jiaren didn't expect that after Bai Dashan heard what she said, he said without thinking: "We will go wherever my aunt says to go."

"No, didn't you understand what I just said? Most of the people in Junji Town are vicious and evil."

"Thank you for letting me know, Madam."

Tao Jiaren looked at Bai Dashan in disbelief: "No, you may not understand how chaotic Junji Town is."

"Let's put it this way. In Junji Town, throwing a stone at random can hit a desperado."

Bai Dashan nodded: "Okay."

Tao Jiaren waited and waited, but nothing came of it. She stared with wide eyes, "That's all?"

"Ah?" Bai Dashan asked in confusion, "What else do you want?"

"You, I..." Tao Jiaren was speechless. Will this group of people not turn back until they hit the wall?

"Forget it, when do you leave? I'll go too!" Since she won't listen to the advice, she might as well go with you.

Seeing Bai Dashan looking at her in surprise, Tao Jiaren said unhappily, "What are you looking at? Why, you can go but I can't?"

She really couldn't bear to let such a cute little baby encounter any danger. If all else failed, she would just run away with the little cutie.

Luming Inn doesn't look big from the outside, but it is actually quite large, with thirty guest rooms on the first and second floors combined.

There are ten large bunk beds, each of which can accommodate more than twenty people.

Because Tao Jiaren can train horses, there is a stable behind the inn that is specifically for keeping horses, which can hold at least dozens of horses.

But even so, there is not enough space for the horses from Taohua Village.

Fortunately, there is not much else in Dongzhou, but the land is large enough, so the backyard of the inn is big enough to accommodate the carriage.

After all the arrangements were made, the inn, upstairs and downstairs, inside and outside, including the carriages parked in the backyard, was packed with more than 400 people.

The remaining more than one hundred people had no place to stay, so they found a small corner sheltered from the wind around the inn and lit a big fire to get through the night.

As Tao Jiaren said, it snowed that night, and the snow was quite heavy. At midnight, those who didn't have tents had to sleep on the floor in the main hall of the inn.

the next day.

Bai Tao got up and saw a vast expanse of snow outside.

Seeing Bai Tao standing at the door of the inn, staring at the snow outside in a daze, Tao Jiaren hurriedly comforted her: "The snow in Dongzhou usually doesn't fall for several days in a row. It will probably stop after three or four days."

"Then stay one more day." After saying that, Bai Tao turned around dejectedly and went upstairs to her room.

Tao Jiaren, who was holding the freshly made goat milk, took a look and immediately looked at Bai Tiechui next to her: "What happened to your aunt?"

Bai Tiechui was wiping his hammer. Hearing this, he looked up at Tao Jiaren, then looked at the closed door of Tianzi Room No. 1, and shook his head: "I don't know either."

"Our aunt is not in a good mood today."

When Tao Jiaren heard this nonsense, she couldn't help but roll her eyes. It was nonsense. Even she could see it.

Bai Tiechui thought for a moment and said uncertainly, "Maybe he didn't sleep well."

In fact, they didn't understand either. In the past few days, my aunt occasionally behaved like this. They asked her about it, and every time she said it was nothing.

When Tao Jiaren heard this, she immediately put down the goat's milk, went back to her room, found two silk quilts and called the tall waiter.

"Kangzi, light up the stove and send it to Room No. 1."

After knocking on the door of Room No. 1, Tao Jiaren entered the room and saw Bai Tao lying on the table with a dull look.

Bai Xiaocao and Bai Qi were peeling nuts obediently next to her. They both seemed to be racking their brains to make her happy, but the effect was not obvious.

"Little cutie, are you feeling unwell?" It's possible that you are suffering from acclimatization when you encounter such weather when you first arrive in Dongzhou.

Bai Tao looked up and shook her head: "No."

"So you didn't sleep well last night?"

Tao Jiaren saw a few children practicing calligraphy in the room and opened her mouth to say something, but then she thought about how her inn was packed with so many people so it didn't seem strange to have a few more people in the little cutie's room.

"It's okay." Bai Tao thought about it and said, I didn't watch any drama last night. I just felt hungry in the middle of the night, so I got up and ate a bowl of pork trotter noodles.

"Sister Tao, are you okay?"

"Oh, nothing. I saw that you didn't sleep well, so I brought you two quilts." Tao Jiaren: "These two quilts were newly made this year. I just dried them in the sun when the sun was good."

At this time, Kangzi also brought the stove.

After Tao Jiaren asked him to put it down, she reminded Bai Tao: "When there is a stove in the house, the windows cannot be closed tightly, otherwise it is easy to get carbon monoxide poisoning..."

Bai Tao nodded: "Okay, thank you Sister Tao." She knew that it was carbon dioxide poisoning.

Originally, Tao Jiaren wanted to say something, but when she saw Bai Tao supporting her chin with her little hand and looking uninterested, she told her to get some good sleep and not to disturb her anymore.

"Little cutie, take a good rest. If anything happens, ask someone to call me."

Baitao nodded.

Although Tao Jiaren had sent out the number one person, she was still worried about Bai Tao's condition.

Don't be sick.

Just as he was walking down the stairs, he saw Bai Dashan hurrying by, and quickly called him over: "The little cutie is not in a good state today."
