Chapter 125: Loose Food Helps Others
There is no quiet place, and before the war began, a large number of people poured into Anpyeong, and now even the abandoned houses are inhabited. Yao Huang was hidden among the branches and leaves of the big tree, and there were a few little beggars living in the dilapidated house under the big tree. In today's situation, beggars are the hardest hit, and the people in the city have problems eating by themselves, so how can there be extra food to give to beggars?
"Brother, I'm hungry!" The voice in the room reached Yao Huang's ears, and the owner of the voice was not very old, at most six or seven years old.
"Brother, drink some cold water to fight your hunger." My brother is only about ten years old.
"Brother, I'm still hungry!" The younger brother, who drank the water, cried, and did not eat for three days, and his little stomach was so hungry that it hurt.
"My brother doesn't cry, my brother will go out to find you something to eat."
"Don't go in the wind, no one walks around on the streets, you can't get food, and if you are found by the officers and soldiers, they will beat you. I still have half a steamed bun, you can take it to the beans to eat. Another little beggar took out half a black steamed bun and handed it to Gale.
"What about you, your health is not good, and it will be even worse if you are hungry." The wind does not pick up steamed buns.
The little beggar coughed a few times and said with a smile, "My health is like this, and drinking a little water can last a day." Let's give the food to Peewee, who is younger than us and can't help but be hungry. β
"List, when I find food, I'll be the first one to eat." Gale finally took the half of the steamed bun. Xiao Douding is very sensible, he didn't eat all the steamed buns, but broke the steamed buns into several portions and distributed them to his brother, Brother Shan Zi and another child. Everyone rejected his kindness, the steamed buns were too small to eat. If you eat a small bit, you will be hungrier. It's better to leave all the steamed buns to the small bean cubes.
Listen to the small chewing sounds and more swallowing sounds in the room. Yao Huang felt pity in his heart. These little beggars are about the same age as Yao Qing, and compared to them, Yao Qing is much happier.
He took out a dozen sweet potatoes from his purse and threw them in front of the house. The sweet potato made a dull noise as it touched the wooden threshold. The little beggars came out to check when they heard the sound, and when they saw the sweet potatoes on the ground, they let out cheers.
"It must have been given to us by the gods." Shan Zi held a sweet potato and said, this sweet potato is so big. There must have been two catties, enough for him to eat for five or six days.
"Well, it's a god!" Gale nodded vigorously. The sweet potato appeared too suddenly, and there was no figure around, who could do it except the gods?
"The best of the gods!" Douding said in a milky voice.
Listening to the little beggars expressing their gratitude to the "immortals", Yao Huang was amused and satisfied. There should still be many people in need of help in this city, anyway, now that I have time and conditions, I might as well just lend a hand.
"Xiaobao, drink porridge!"
"Mother, why don't you drink it."
"Mother has drunk it."
"Liar. Mother definitely didn't drink it. My mother doesn't drink porridge, and I don't drink either. β
"Why are you so tough, kid?"
There was a noise outside the door. The two mothers and sons went out to check and found a few large potatoes.
"Mother, we have something to eat."
"It's the gods, it's the gods who sent it to us!"
β¦β¦β¦β¦
"Son, your father and I are old, and we don't have a few years to live, so don't waste food. You give all your food to your daughter-in-law to eat. β
"How does this work?"
"Why not? Your daughter-in-law is pregnant and can't go hungry. β
"But ......"
"No, your daughter-in-law's belly is my grandson. I can't let my grandson hurt in the slightest. β
"Father-in-law, mother-in-law, father-in-law, come out and see!"
"Lady, what's wrong?"
"Xianggong, the gods have brought us food. You see, this bag of rice was given to us by the gods! β
β¦β¦
On this day, many people in Anping County received the blessing of the "gods". The legend of the gods and goddesses is spread among the inhabitants.
Taking advantage of the night, Yao Huang returned home. Except for Yao Hong and Xiao Ke, who went to bed early due to physical reasons, Wenren Qianye and Yao Qing were waiting for Yao Huang to go home.
"Second sister, are you hungry? The fourth aunt made steamed buns, and I'll warm them up for you. Yao Qing ran into the kitchen after speaking, although he didn't know how to cook, he still knew how to make a fire.
Yao Huang took out the things in the back basket one by one and divided them into two piles, one of which was pushed to Wenren Chiba, "Brother-in-law, these are for the eldest sister." β
Hearing that Qianye hugged something, he asked Yao Huang, "How is it in the city?" β
"It's still calm, there have been small riots, and they have been suppressed by officers and soldiers." Yao Huang held another pile of things and put them in their proper places, "There is a shortage of food in the city, and if the imperial court does not bring grain and grass over, it is very likely that there will be a big riot." β
"There shouldn't be a riot, the emperor won't let this happen, the grain and grass are already on the way." Smell people Chiba Road.
"Brother-in-law, you are so well informed!" Yao Huang praised. She knew that Qianye had his own connections and subordinates, which made her very envious, how long had it been since he recovered from his body. Now that her brother-in-law lives in seclusion in a small village, he can know the affairs of the world, which has a sense of "strategizing".
Wenren Chiba chuckled, "If you want to know any information about Lu Dao, just ask me." β
"No need, I'm not interested in the information from the court." Yao Huang packed up his things, and just as Yao Qing came into the house with a hot bun and a bowl of mung bean soup. Drove the two to rest, Yao Huang ate steamed buns and mung bean soup and went back to the room.
A month and a half has passed, Yao Hong's fetus has been stabilized, and there is no longer morning sickness, and he can do some easy work, Yao Huang is freed from the kitchen. During this period, she went to Anping County again to deliver medicine to the Tao family and take advantage of the night to deliver food to those in need in the city. Fortunately, she had a lot of inventory in her space, and she only used one-fifth of the space food for those people. The grain of the imperial court has been transported to Anping County, and the price of grain has been reduced, and most residents have been able to eat grain. Yao Huang didn't have to take care of them, he only distributed them to the little beggars and the poor who had poor family conditions, and the consumption of food in the space was much less. And the legend of the gods is becoming more and more fierce in Anping County. Tao Qingsian's internal injuries gradually improved after taking Yao Huang's medicine, and the splint on his leg had been removed, which looked no different from ordinary people. When Yao Huang came, Tao Qingsilk solemnly thanked Yao Huang. This experience made the originally domineering and naΓ―ve teenager mature and sensible, and became a good son who was filial to his parents and sisters.
"You're going to retreat again?" Yao Hong prepared dry food for her sister by herself, but some time ago, her sister almost lived in the kitchen in order to take care of her, which made her very moved.
"It won't be very long this time." Yao Huangdao, her entry into the reincarnation bead this time is not across the realm, and it will not take too long.
"Remember to eat on time and don't go hungry." Yao Hong told her sister to send her into the bedroom. (To be continued......)
