This child does look very innocent and kind. They have never experienced all those intrigues before, and they have grown up in such an environment, so naturally they have a simple and honest heart.
I don’t know whether they will be able to truly adapt to the outside world after they go there.
Moreover, they have been living in here for so long that they are more or less out of touch with the outside world. Not only the children, but even the adults may not be able to keep up with the outside world.
This is also something that worries them.
Although they knew that saying it now might not be a good idea to some extent, they would still think of this aspect in their minds.
The child supported his chin with his hand, listened carefully, and remembered every word that Zhang Qihai and Qi Tiezui said clearly in his mind.
After waiting for the two people to finish speaking, he nodded repeatedly and spoke in a serious tone.
"It sounds so wonderful. When I get out, I must try the candied haws and other fun things you mentioned."
Seeing the child say such words, the two of them just looked at each other, smiled, and nodded slightly.
To them, the child really looked very innocent and cute.
After all, it is very good to have such an opportunity in the current situation.
If they had not come here, if it were not for such a fate, perhaps these children would only be able to stay here and grow up slowly, and their next generation and the next generation might also stay here.
But it was precisely because God gave them such an opportunity that they were able to meet Zhang Qihai and Qi Tiezui, and lead them out of their current difficult and harsh environment.
While they were waiting to say this, some people outside started shouting.
"Okay, okay, come on, come on, eat."
Maybe because everyone was helping and no one was idle, so soon the whole table of dishes was ready.
Before this, they probably would not have been able to be so extravagant because they knew that if they ate so well for this meal, they might not have anything to eat for the next one.
But now everything is completely different. They will leave here tomorrow, so it would be a waste not to eat these dishes. It is better to take this opportunity to replenish everyone's nutrition.
Everyone sat here.
Everyone's face looked very happy.
The old man slowly stood up, picked up the cup in his hand, and toasted Zhang Qihai, Qi Tiezui, and Bai Qiaoren in front of him.
"Thank you so much this time. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't know what to do."
As soon as he opened his mouth to say these words, the people around him followed his example, picked up their cups, nodded, and began to agree.
"Yes, yes, thank you so much this time. No matter what, we will definitely remember your kindness in the future."
"This kind of kindness is really beyond our ability to repay, but no matter what, we will definitely repay you well."
"Thank you so much, otherwise we might have stayed here forever."
……
Seeing everyone starting to say similar things, the others just raised their hands and shook them gently. It really was no big deal to them.
"Okay, we are all family, and we shouldn't talk about different things. So don't keep talking about this."
"Yes, you did save us from the beginning. If it were because of you, we would have starved to death outside."
"Okay, okay, sit down quickly."
Bai Qiao and the others also started talking.
Originally, because the Han people had been invading them, they were really unfriendly to people of other races and didn't want to accept them, but this time was an exception.
Although these villagers are not of the same race as them, they are really kind and simple. That is why he is willing to accept them and live a good life with them.
At this moment, the chief chieftain immediately stood up and spoke to them.
"If you want to go out now, it may be very difficult, because you are really too weak now. If you are willing, you can come to our Baiqiao Village. As long as you can abide by the law and work hard, we can have a place for you here."
After all, there are only a few men among these women and the elderly. Even if they really go out and find a place to settle down, others may continue to bully them.
Instead of this, it would be better to just listen to what this big boss says.
They didn't expect that the chieftain would be willing to give them such an opportunity. How could it not be a good thing for them?
They would certainly be fine, and they seized this opportunity, nodding their heads in thanks.
"Of course no problem, thank you so much."
Chapter 690 Decision
Even the village chief was very excited at this time and said something.
"Yes, yes, thank you so much for giving us such an opportunity this time."
Before anyone else could speak, he spoke again.
"In fact, I have also thought about where we will live and what we will do after we go out. Although we haven't been out for a long time, we still know that it is indeed dangerous outside."
If they really get out and encounter any problems in the future, wouldn't all their efforts be in vain?
So no matter what, he had to find a way that was good for everyone.
Originally they didn't know what to do before, but now that the chief has given them such a good opportunity, how could they not seize it?
The people around naturally knew the importance of this promise.
They are not children anymore, they are adults. Although they came from the outside world when they were very young and came here, they still have some understanding of the outside world.
This society is based on the survival of the fittest.
People like them, once they get out and settle down, may be bullied by some people around them.
It is indeed very rare that the chieftain is willing to give them such an opportunity.
So in this situation, they naturally know what they should do.
Seeing these villagers thanking him so enthusiastically, the chieftain did not feel that what he had done was any big deal.
She just shook her head repeatedly, smiled at everyone and spoke.
"Okay, okay, don't take it too seriously. We are all friends. It's no big deal to do this."
At this moment, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. She didn't want everyone to feel too much pressure because of this matter.
Then, Zhang Qihai couldn't help but turn his head and look at the chieftain.
"Actually, I want to thank you on behalf of the villagers."
Seeing Zhang Qihai speaking out of nowhere, the great chieftain naturally felt very strange about what he said, and didn't know why he suddenly said that.
"What's wrong with you? Why did you suddenly bring this up? We are all friends, so it's not a big deal to do this."
Besides, she knew clearly in her heart that if it weren't for Qi Tiezui and Zhang Qihai this time, she might have been killed long ago. By then, she would not even be alive, let alone doing all these things.
After all, these understandings were originally a trap that wanted me to jump into it and die on this road.
In fact, if he went back like this now, it might surprise everyone and make those who hurt her feel at a loss.
But she had already thought of everything.
After this incident, she can be said to have seen through everything.
The Great Protector was so determined to kill her, and after I go back, there is no way he will let him go easily no matter what.
Then Zhang Qihai began to speak.
"After all, they have lived here for a long time before. In fact, they are out of touch with society and may not have much contact with the outside world. If they want to survive outside now, they may have some difficulties and need to adapt for a long time. If they want to start their own business, it may be even more difficult. But you are willing to give them such an opportunity, which can help them avoid many detours."
The village chief did think of such a possibility, so he was very hesitant at the time, and was thinking all day about how to solve this problem.
And now he finally knew.
Not only him, but also those who care about them are indeed thinking about such a question.
But now everything has been resolved. The chieftain has extended an olive branch to them, and they will definitely seize it.
This is indeed a good thing for them.
"But now that you have put forward this suggestion, it can indeed help everyone suffer less."
Zhang Qihai couldn't help but give a thumbs up to the big toast.
He really felt that what the chief chief had done this time was great.
The people around might have been a little confused at the beginning, wondering why this happened suddenly, but now after hearing these words, they finally understood what was going on.
Several people nodded and immediately understood the good intentions behind this.
The big chieftain was naturally very happy in his heart. To be honest, he had not thought about these things from the beginning, but when he mentioned this, he finally understood how correct the decision he had just made was.
Everyone started praising her, which made her feel a little embarrassed.
So at this moment, she shook her head repeatedly and spoke.
"It's okay, it's okay. This is what I should do. We have known each other for so long that we can be considered very good friends. You also paid a lot for us in the beginning. We are just helping each other."
"Alright, alright, stop praising me and hurry up and continue eating. Otherwise, the food will get cold and won't taste good."
After she said this, everyone started eating.
Everyone looked very happy.
They haven't been this happy in a long time.
This time the options are like adding insult to injury.
Almost everyone was discussing this matter.
They certainly looked very happy.
"It's ok, I can finally leave here. I've been here for such a long time, I really can't stand it anymore."
"Yes, although we may still feel uncomfortable with the new life, I believe that with our efforts, we will be able to do this well."
"Alright, alright, everyone make sure to eat and drink well today. After a good night's sleep this morning to replenish your energy, we can set off tomorrow!"
Everyone is looking forward to tomorrow's trip.
Even though they know they may meet many more people along the way, they will never give up easily no matter what.
Not long after, everyone sat down at the table and stopped eating, as if they were all full.
“It’s so comfortable.”
