Chapter 169: Help

"Fill it up for Uncle!" One of the men knocked on the edge of the pot with the clay pot in his hand and yelled at the white girl viciously. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The faces of the white girl and the two little girls beside her changed, Uncle Guang was originally stirring the freshly cooked grains next door, but when he saw this, he hurriedly threw down the iron spoon and walked over, looking at the men vigilantly.

"Didn't you hear Uncle?" The man knocked twice more, his expression extremely arrogant, and the surrounding victims involuntarily took two steps back, looking very jealous of them.

"You ......" Uncle Guang clenched his fists and was about to step forward, but was grabbed by the white girl.

She whispered to Uncle Guang: "Forget it, don't cause trouble." Then he picked up the long spoon and silently scooped the porridge into the clay pot in the man's hand.

The two girls and Uncle Guang couldn't help but show indignant expressions.

When the other men saw this, they also stretched out the utensils in their hands, and the white girl filled them without saying a word.

"Okay, it's all full, you get out of the way, the people in the back are still waiting." She said expressionlessly, with a bit of forbearance in her eyes.

"Yo, little girl, you dare to show your face to grandpa." The man in the lead narrowed his eyes and suddenly reached out and pinched the white girl's chin.

"What are you doing? Let go of your dirty hands! Uncle Guang was furious, and when he went up, he punched the man in the face.

The man was caught off guard, and the clay pot in his hand turned directly to his chest, and the hot porridge made him scream.

"Beat me up this old guy!" He shouted at the people next to him.

The other men immediately threw away the things in their hands, and surrounded them and punched and kicked Uncle Guang, who was invincible with both fists and four hands, and was immediately knocked to the ground by them.

"Stop, stop!" The white girl and the two girls were so anxious that tears were about to fall.

Just as a few men were fighting energetically, a strong wind suddenly swept behind them, and then in full view, several of them flew out like kites with broken strings, smashing several large holes in the snow not far away.

The situation changed suddenly, and everyone couldn't help but let out a burst of exclamations.

Li Guan and a few people walked over surrounded by guards.

Gu Chengyu glanced at the men who were lying on the ground moaning, and said lightly: "Tie them up." ”

So the two guards went up and tied them up, dragged them over, and threw them before the people.

Several men came back to their senses, and when they opened their mouths, they scolded, and Li Wan frowned: "Plug their mouths." ”

The guards untied the belts of several people and stuffed them into their mouths, and everyone's ears were suddenly cleared.

"Thank you for your help." The white girl thanked them in shock, her expression a little surprised and curious.

Because she was a woman, Gu Chengyu didn't speak, so Li Guan stepped forward and said with a smile: "Girl, you don't have to be polite, you are here to give porridge to the victims, it is a good deed, and we should help you." ”

When the white girl saw that they were not dressed like the victims of the disaster, her heart moved, and she asked, "Are you the ones who help the people of the town build shacks?" ”

Li Wan smiled and bowed his head, and saw that the surrounding victims were still waiting to drink porridge, so he said: "White girl, if you have something to say, let's talk about it later, let's serve porridge to everyone first." ”

"Okay." The white girl nodded, and instructed the girl to help Uncle Guang to the side to rest, and returned to the pot to continue serving porridge to the victims.

Without Uncle Guang, they didn't have enough manpower, so Li Wan and a few people spontaneously went over to help.

The guards found two more pots, and everyone built stoves to carry firewood, washed rice and boiled porridge, and pots of hot gruel entered the stomachs of the victims one by one. After a busy morning, they finally finished the porridge.

Xun Fang and Zhu Fang invited them back for lunch, Li Wan invited the three of the white girl's master and servant, and the group returned to the little girl's house.

After eating, everyone chatted casually, and Li Wan and the others knew the identity of the white girl.

Her full name is Bai Weiwei, is the only daughter in the family, her parents died in an accident when she was a child, she was raised by her grandparents, her family opened a rice shop in Jiyang County, after the snow disaster, her grandparents wanted to do a little bit to help the people affected by the disaster.

Because the two old people are old, and her shop is small, she doesn't dare to squander it, so she will bring food out to give porridge from time to time.

About three days ago, she happened to pass by the town of Duoshi, and found that the houses here had collapsed under heavy snow, and the people were already hungry, and now they had no place to shelter from the wind and snow, so she took out the food she brought with her and boiled some porridge for the people in the town.

After returning home, she always thought about the people of Duoshi Town, so she managed to raise half a cart of food and rushed over to relieve the victims.

She said with a deep worry on her face: "Half a cart of grain, even if it is boiled into gruel, two meals a day, is only enough for the people in the town to eat for two days......"

"The disaster here is so serious, are the people in the county government so ignorant of it?" Gu Chengyu frowned and asked.

Bai Weiwei shook her head: "I don't know the details either, but I haven't heard anyone talk about the situation in Duoshi Town in the county seat." The implication is that either the people in the county government have not heard the news, or they know it but pretend to be deaf and dumb.

They couldn't help but think of those shacks, the people in the town said that the mayor accompanied the official in the county town to send it, and the news must have already spread, so those people were obviously pretending to be deaf and dumb.

Everyone's faces became very ugly, and Shi Yue muttered: "The imperial court has allocated so much silver for disaster relief, and there is Shen Guogong in charge, how dare they ......?"

"Hmph." Li Guan smiled coldly, "I don't dare to do anything under the lust for profit, otherwise why is the Dakang officials so strict, and for so many years, there have been golden crossbow battalions and silver fan guard inspectors, torture and strict laws, but corrupt officials are still endless?" ”

The crowd fell silent.

Bai Weiwei unconsciously stirred the porridge in the bowl, her lowered eyes were full of shock, they were talking about state affairs so grandly?

"Dare to be a demon under my cousin's nose, it's like looking for death!" Dong Linzhi said gloomily and glanced at Gu Chengyu, "It seems that we have to get grain from the county, otherwise the people of this Dushi Town will not want to survive this winter." ”

Gu Chengyu nodded solemnly, and said in a deep voice: "Without further ado, I think we will leave in the afternoon." He looked at Li Guan, "Guan'er, you and Shi Gongzi don't go, stay and take care of the victims in the town with the white girl, and wait for Lord Huo to come back by the way." If he comes back, you can ask people to come to the county town to find us, so that we can know if Grandpa Guo has any arrangements. ”

Li Wan actually wanted to go to the county seat with them, but Gu Chengyu's arrangement made sense, and she nodded reluctantly.

After lunch, Gu Chengyu and Dong Linzhi set off for the county seat, except for Zhou Guan who stayed, the other guards went with them, the situation in the county town is unknown, and it is not wrong to bring more people. (To be continued.) )
