Dozens of large iron pots were set up outside the city, neatly rowed, firewood burning, thick white porridge constantly bubbling cutely, refugees lined up, saliva flowed out of the elders.

Seeing that the porridge was about to be cooked, someone grabbed two large handfuls of salt, poured it into the pot, and stirred it. Crazy, really crazy!

People who eat salt have strength, and they can make trouble if they have strength. Today there is salt to eat, and the big guy is dancing happily, even happier than the New Year.

"It's time to eat!"

Zhu Laoshi personally took the spoon and poured a full bowl of porridge, and the middle-aged man opposite came out with tears of excitement, ran aside with the bowl, and poured it into his mouth without caring about the heat. A bowl of porridge is in the stomach, hot from the inside out, and the whole body is full of energy.

Not only did there be porridge to eat, but about two hundred steps away from the city wall, in a wide open space, Lei Qi commanded the manpower and was setting up tents, and the refugees who had just eaten their stomachs also consciously joined in, making the progress extremely fast.

There is food and shelter, the refugees can't believe it, is God really kind and sent them a living bodhisattva!

"Well, that's good." Tang Shunzhi showed a pleased smile on his face, and behind him there were more than a dozen heart scholars such as Zhao Juren, all of whom were Tang Shunzhi's disciples or disciples.

"You are all disciples of Yang Minggong, you are learning the science of conscience, taking the world as your own responsibility, and the people of Li are suffering, if you lie down safely, are you worthy of what you have learned? Tang Yi is just a boy in white, can he pour out all his family property and help the people, can you not be ashamed? ”

Zhao Wen's old face flushed, and he took the lead and said: "Teacher, disciple and others dare not be ashamed, and they are willing to do the work of dogs and horses." ”

"Yes, I'm willing to do the work of dogs and horses...... But, sir, what can we do, move wood as well? ”

Tang Shunzhi snorted, "Ask me what to do, go and ask Tang Yi, you can listen to what he says." ”

Zhao Wen nodded obediently and ran in front of Tang Yi with the big guy. Tang Yi was directing his men to carry the wood. These scholars were sad one by one, they were as thin as bean sprouts, and it was more pleasant to let them move wood or kill them.

Zhao Wen looked at Tang Yi with a bitter face, and asked, "Do you think there is any work we can do?" ”

"Yes, of course!" Zhao Wen counted himself as half a teacher, Tang Yi didn't dare to slack off, and said with a smile: "Sir, you might as well take everyone to register the refugees, as long as you have a skill, you can pick them out." ”

"Okay, this is good!"

In the end, he is an apprentice, and he is quite kind, Zhao Wen happily accepted the order.

……

By this time, the sky had already darkened, and a warm wind blew, sparsely falling from the sky, and snowflakes fell.

The refugees present all showed a look of horror, what they were most afraid of was snow, after a heavy snowfall, not to mention the death of 100 people, maybe after one night, many people will never have a chance to open their eyes again.

The snowflakes got into his neck, and the thin young man was clever and said, "Third Brother Tian, isn't there a tent over there, go and hide!" ”

"Well, let's go!"

Brother Tian took five or six strong young men to separate the crowd and rushed to the tent that had just been set up, he lifted the curtain and went inside. At this time, someone suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed his arm, and Tian Sange was stunned.

"What, isn't this for people?"

Wu Tiancheng was supervising the setting up of the tent, and when he saw someone rushing over, he stopped him and said, "It's a good place to live, but you can't." ”

"We can't, so who are we going to do?" Brother Tian Sange's eyes showed a fierce light.

The thin young man behind him sneered: "Third brother, you don't know what virtues the dog official has, isn't it just to see the money!" ”

Third Brother Tian glared at him fiercely, then hugged his fist at Wu Tiancheng and said, "Brother can't speak, we're too cold, just let us hide for a while!" ”

Wu Tiancheng still shook his head and said with a smile: "I'll tell you two things, first, I'm not an official, let alone a dog official; Second, even though you are cold, there are still people who need tents more than you. ”

"Who?"

"Look back!"

As soon as Brother Tian and the others turned around, they saw that many young men were helping the old and the young to walk towards the tent, and those with injuries and illnesses, the elderly, children, and women who were pregnant or with children entered the tent first. The ground was covered with thick hay and there were curtains on all sides to protect them from the wind and snow, and it was a great fluke for the suffering people to have such a place to live.

When the big guys entered the tent, they kept thanking them, and some even kowtowed excitedly.

Wu Tiancheng looked at Third Brother Tian and them with a slight mockery, and said with a smile: "Do you still want to live?" ”

"Humph!" Tian Sange's face turned red, and he turned around and left, and the others followed.

"Third brother, it's so cold today, what can we do?"

"What else can I do! Go grab it with the? Brother Tian was silent for a while, and said, "Let's go, let's also help set up the tent, and the more strength the multiple monkeys have, they can also be distributed to us as soon as possible." ”

……

Suddenly, like a night of spring breeze, thousands of trees and pear blossoms bloom.

The sparkling snow fills the branches, and under the sunlight, it reflects the colorful glow, which is extremely enchanting. The snow scene in the south of the Yangtze River is rare, around the stove, about three or five confidants, talking loudly, chanting poems, how happy it should be. Chen Menghe, who is keen on literary meetings, must push away all official documents in the past and have fun with the people. It's just that the damn Wakou disrupted everything, and Chen Menghe became distracted.

"Go and prepare some straw mats, and invite a few more Lang Zhong to come over and go out of the city with the official."

Zhou Xun was called over, and when he heard that the adults were going out of the city, he couldn't help but change color.

"My lord, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to go out of the city at this time, and I'm worried that it will be bad for you."

Yes, how many people will die in a heavy snowfall, under the excitement of the crowd, Chen Menghe will inevitably become a punching bag. It is indeed dangerous to go out of the city, but if you don't go out to see, you always feel that your conscience can't get by.

"Hey, they are all the people of the Ming Dynasty, and the official still has to go and see it."

"Since the adults are going, let's bring more people."

After a while, Zhou Patrol ordered 200 soldiers and soldiers, with eighteen weapons, surrounded Chen Menghe's sedan chair, huhula, and went out of the city gate.

Zhou Xun rode a cyan war horse, which he bought for seventy taels of silver after he was promoted to the head catcher, no way, the war horse in the south is so expensive.

For the safety of adults, he rushed out first, ran to the refugee camp, and after a big circle, he returned to Chen Menghe's sedan chair.

"What, are the casualties serious?"

Zhou Xun jumped off the war horse, with a strange look on his face, and smiled awkwardly: "My lord, you can just take a look." ”

"Hmph, so it's a mystery!"

Under the protection of everyone, Chen Menghe walked into the camp quickly, getting closer and closer, Chen Menghe was suddenly startled.

There are five rows of tents, all of which are tied up with brushes. The refugees have sheltered from the wind and snow, and now some people are clearing the snow, while others are going to collect gruel, which is completely different from the chaos imagined.

Chen Menghe was surprised, Wei Liangfu and Tang Shunzhi had already come together, Tang Shunzhi had worked all night last night, and he was a little tired at the moment, Wei Liangfu came in the morning.

"It turned out to be Mr. Shangquan Gong and Mr. Jing Chuan, who were polite in their later years."

"Hehe, Ziyu, you've missed a good show." Wei Liangfu said with a smile.

"What's the show? By the way, these tents were all made last night? Chen Menghe looked incredulous.

Tang Shunzhi smiled proudly: "That's right, I'm ashamed to say it, the movements are still a little slower, two elderly people froze to death last night." ”

How much? Two!

Tang Jingchuan, you still have a look of regret, do you want to be satisfied if you don't die?

Chen Menghe looked back at the several carts of reed mats that he had pulled, and he was so ashamed that he even had the heart to die. Before he came, he even thought of the corpses outside the city, the crying was shocking, and the people would go crazy and curse, no matter what, he just didn't expect that it would be such a result.

It's a miracle, a complete miracle!

After being dumbfounded for a long time, Chen Menghe suddenly woke up and smiled happily: "Call Tang Yi over, if you are hungry, I will go in person to meet this amazing boy!" ”
