Chapter 203: Guessing about the Pirates’ Trouble

When returning from the fields with the old patriarch, Huang Tinghui seemed to have thought of something, "Old patriarch, has the village organized training for rural soldiers in recent years?"

"Training of rural soldiers?" Hearing Huang Tinghui suddenly ask this question, the old patriarch was a little surprised, but he still answered Huang Tinghui truthfully, "After the pirates became troubled, I don't know about the patriarchs of other villages, but my Huangjia Village still has something

prepare!"

"At critical times, we can't count on the government, we can only rely on ourselves!"

"The patriarch also knows it in his heart!" After seeing the disaster of pirates in the nearby state capital, the old patriarch was naturally worried about the safety of Huangjia Village, so he did not dare to relax on the training of local soldiers.

Speaking of rural soldiers, they were also called militia in this era.

The rural soldiers are non-retired armed forces composed of residents on their own initiative. They are local people's armed forces composed of local people who are selected or recruited according to the proportion of young people with household registration.

These soldiers usually stay away from production and gather for training in their spare time.

Responsible for tasks such as building cities, transporting grain, catching thieves, or cooperating with the imperial army to guard the border.

There are many names of rural soldiers in various places, and their organization is not uniform.

Nowadays, the pirate pirates are getting more and more serious, and the rural soldiers are also trying to protect the safety of each village.

The old patriarch is a mature man, and he also knows that only if he has strength, those pirates will not be able to get any benefits in Huangjia Village.

Huang Tinghui nodded, "Old patriarch, after Tinghui returns to the county this time, he won't worry about leaving the village."

"Tinghui has a bad feeling that Uncle Erzhu's family will stay in Huangjia Village."

"My cousin, the son of Uncle Erzhu, can also read now. I compiled a pamphlet."

"When you have some free time, the old patriarch can use the book to train his soldiers."

“It’s quite prepared!”

Hearing Huang Tinghui's words, the old patriarch also nodded quickly.

In this day and age, although Prime Minister Zhang is in charge of the capital.

Nomads like Mengwu and Tuzhen will not gain much in the hands of Prime Minister Zhang.

But the southeastern corner is plagued by pirates and wants to live a peaceful life.

You must have some strength in your hands.

Therefore, the old patriarch looked at Huang Tinghui with great satisfaction, "Brother Hui, you are still thoughtful!"

"Don't worry, with the old patriarch here, these guys will definitely be obedient."

"When the time comes, practice according to the booklet you gave me!"

Hearing the words of the old patriarch, Huang Tinghui finally felt relieved.

The situation in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Fujian is not very good. Several counties around Ruian County have been harassed by pirates to some extent.

Although the current situation in Ruian County is quite good, pirates have not posed much of a threat to Ruian County.

But everything must be prepared, otherwise there will be nothing you can do when trouble comes.

Huang Tinghui returned to Ruian County this time. If he had a chance to see the county elder, he would also like to tell the county elder his idea.

"In addition, after the imperial examination, Tinghui may have to stay in Murakami for a while."

"Right now, Tinghui has some spare money and is thinking of building a big house!"

"Lian'er will stay in the village this time and build a house with Uncle Erzhu and Aunt Erzhu!"

"We still need the help of the old patriarch for this matter!"

Although the previous adobe house was suitable for people to live in, Huang Tinghui was not without money at the moment.

Shen Ji Cloth Shop's soap share, Lu's Restaurant's tea eggs, and the medicine shop opened by Huang Tinghui and Wu Feilian.

All have good profits.

In this way, it is more than enough to build a wooden house or something in the village.

"Building another house?"

"It seems that Brother Hui has really made a name for himself in the county town!"

When the old patriarch heard Huang Tinghui's words, he didn't say much about Huang Tinghui.

In this era, those who are promising must buy land and build houses desperately.

Land and houses are symbols of status.

Now Huang Tinghui has successfully passed the county examination and is the head of the case in Ruian County.

Naturally, he has status, but Huang Tinghui didn't mention it.

The old patriarch would also remind Huang Tinghui to move to a big house.

The facade is still needed.

This is like some wealthy people in later generations, the luxury cars they buy are a symbol of status.

It can also save you a lot of mundane things!

"Don't worry, brother Hui, the government examination is coming soon!"

"Just feel at ease and get ready!"

"You can leave the rest to the patriarch directly!"

"Grandpa will definitely do something beautiful for you!"

The old patriarch said happily to Huang Tinghui.

"Thank you, Grandpa Patriarch!" Huang Tinghui said excitedly to the old Patriarch.

"You and I are as close as grandparents, so there is no need to be polite about this kind of thing!"

"Brother Hui, you should go back and prepare your homework earlier!"

"yes!"

After the two separated, Wu Feilian followed Huang Tinghui with small steps.

The little girl was a little depressed, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

"Husband, won't you take Lian'er back to the county seat?"

When she got home, the little girl finally asked what she had been hiding in her heart.

"Silly girl!" Huang Tinghui pulled Wu Feilian and sat in his arms.

"How can my husband be willing to keep you at home?"

"It's just that the family wants to build a house and needs someone to watch over it!"

"Lian'er is at home, and my husband feels more at ease!"

"The most important thing is not this!" At this point, Huang Tinghui's expression became a little serious and solemn, "According to the extent of the pirate bandits' ravages in the past years, they will definitely make trouble and rob the surrounding counties!"

"But this time, since the beginning of autumn last year, this group of pirates has calmed down!"

"It's so eerie how quiet they are!"

"My husband is worried. I am worried that the quieter and more dormant the pirates become, the more ferocious and violent their next action will be!"

In front of Wu Feilian, Huang Tinghui confessed his true inner thoughts without hesitation.

For some reason, Huang Tinghui felt inexplicably worried about the current situation.

It was precisely because of worry that he couldn't worry about Wu Feilian and wanted her to stay in Huangjiacun.

Compared with the county seat, Huangjiacun's goals are smaller.

Moreover, the old patriarch and the others are very familiar with the terrain near Huangjiacun, if there is any emergency.

The little girl's safety is guaranteed.

"Husband, don't go back to the county town. Stay with Lian'er in Huangjia Village!" The little girl clutched Huang Tinghui's sleeve tightly and said worriedly.

"How can I stay in Huangjia Village when my husband's imperial examination is about to take place?"

"If Mr. Li knew that my husband was so lazy, I'm afraid he would be so angry that he would get sick again!"

"Besides, with Zhang Cheng and the others here, there is no need to worry about your husband's safety!"

"Silly girl, don't think too much!" Huang Tinghui smiled and explained to Wu Feilian.

"Besides, these are just my husband's guesses. Whether there will be such a disaster is uncertain!"

"My husband is going to pass five levels and kill six generals in the government examination!"

"How can you hide in Huangjia Village because of these things and speculations?"

After gently scratching the little girl's nose, Huang Tinghui smiled and said to the little girl.
