Chapter 172: Almsgiving

"Add some more rice, oops, you're too thin, they can't get enough." Mu Li got up early in the morning, busy making porridge, she always felt that the people outside were so pitiful that they had to add more rice, so she urged the green kite to add rice to it.

"Princess, I think it's about the same, and I'm afraid it's going to be rice."

The green kite listened to Mu Li's words and added a lot of rice to it, but now I am afraid that the porridge has not been boiled yet, and it has become half-cooked rice.

"No, no, I'm experienced in cooking."

The small portions are different from the big pot rice, and they use firewood, of course, a lot more water. Mu Li has been thinking about using the standard ratio of rice cooker to add rice and water.

Chu Lingyi hadn't forgotten the soup porridge, and he had already found a few women to help make porridge and porridge together. "Come, go this way, after staying up for a while, I'll let people get the porridge on the street, and I'll work hard for a few aunts."

"No, no."

"There's not enough firewood, hurry up and add firewood." The green kite added firewood, and Mu Li was helping to fan the fire on the side, and the two of them were dizzy.

"Lord, isn't that the princess and the green kite, are they also here to help?"

This girl, what are you tossing again, she was not happy to say that she was going to send her back last night, and she started tossing so early today, is it because she is afraid that I will send her back. Chu Lingyi thought to himself, walked behind Mu Li, and watched Mu Li busy with his work.

"Oh, I'll come, green kite, you fan." Mu Li still felt that the fire was not strong enough, mainly because the firewood of the green kite was not added in time enough, and when he got up to exchange places with the green kite, he bumped into Chu Lingyi.

"Oh, who's in my way...... Lord, I'm here. ”

Mu Li hurriedly dropped the firewood in his hand and wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve, but the more he wiped his face, the dirtier it became.

"Look at the princess, that face." The old women couldn't help but laugh.

Mu Li's face is full of ash like a little flower cat hiding from the chimney, which is a little cute. Mu Li didn't know what they were laughing at, and looked at Chu Lingyi in a daze. "I, do I have something on my face, why are they smiling so happily."

Chu Lingyi pursed his lips and smiled, and reached out to wipe the ash off his face for Mu Li. "No, it's very cute. By the way, you go down and rest, here the king has invited a few aunts to help. ”

After that, several aunts stepped forward to clean up Mu Li's mess, and it was the first time they had seen porridge with firewood, and it was really fortunate that they didn't burn the rice.

"Ah, what's the situation, are you trying to drive me away?" Mu Li tugged at Chu Lingyi's sleeve and asked him a question.

"This king doesn't want you to be hurt, besides, don't you care about your Yixiangfang, don't you want to see the school, won't you go back to busy with this?"

Chu Lingyi thought that Yixiangfang was Mu Li's baby, and it was always okay to use this to provoke Mu Li, that Mu Li didn't worry about Yixiangfang at all.

"Don't worry, my Yixiangfang is fine, you don't have to worry. I didn't tell you, I had to help. Mu Li staggered and went to make porridge with the aunts.

Chu Lingyi shook her head helplessly, this princess was really naughty and a little disobedient.

"Do you want to ...... the carriage for the princess?"

"No need, do you think your princess is still willing to go back?"

It's better than her turning back halfway. Since you are willing to help with the soup kitchen, you should share it for yourself. Chu Lingyi couldn't help but want to laugh when he looked at Mu Li's serious porridge.

"Oh, what are you doing with the pestle, why don't you hurry up and help carry the porridge."

The porridge has been boiled, and now it is time to transport it to the street. There are many people begging on the streets, and it is more convenient to give porridge. Mu Li and Qing Kite had finished sorting out all the bowls, and they almost took out the porridge.

How dare the princess not listen to her orders, Chu Lingyi stepped forward and moved the porridge onto the cart with Liuyun. "Be careful."

Mu Li's frizziness almost knocked down the porridge bucket, but fortunately, Chu Lingyi's eyes were quick and he hurriedly helped the porridge bucket up. If this porridge is really sprinkled on Mu Li's body, I am afraid that it will be more auspicious. The freshly boiled porridge has a very high temperature, and once it is scalded to eight or nine, it will not leave ten or even the skin will fall off.

Chu Lingyi asked Qing Kite to help Mu Li to follow behind, don't have something like that again.

"Liuyun, you go and shout, call everyone over, I'll wait here with the green kite."

Mu Li cautiously opened the porridge bucket, and the beggar sitting opposite immediately stood up and scrambled to drink the porridge. In order to allow every beggar to drink steaming white porridge in an orderly manner, Chu Lingyi became a persuader and asked them to line up one by one.

"Here, it's yours, is it enough?" Mu Li is a spoonful and a bowl, and his movements are very skillful.

"Thanks, that's enough."

Liuyun called a lot of beggars from other places, and when they heard that it was the princess who was giving porridge, they all rushed over. Homeless, they hadn't eaten a mouthful of hot white porridge for a long time, and their eyes were full of gratitude to Mu Li.

"Princess, if you don't want to rest, let me do the rest." Mu Li stood for a long time, and the green kite was afraid of tiring her and wanted to share it for her.

"No, I'm fine, you can help the prince maintain order together." Mu Li rejected the green kite, and she still had no problem with this little work.

"Why are you here again, I saw you have a bowl when I first came to the queue."

"I ......"

A little boy tried to cut in line, but was squeezed out by the people behind him, and found out that he had come more than once, so he made a noise.

Chu Lingyi heard the sound and immediately went over to check, "What's the matter?" ”

The little boy held the bowl in his hand, and timidly lowered his head and did not speak.

"He cut the queue and came twice."

"Is that so?" Chu Lingyi squatted down and patiently asked the little boy, but the little boy just didn't speak, and left tears.

"Come, you divide me, I'll go see what's going on." Mu Li gave the spoon to the aunt on the side and walked over to see what had happened.

"Don't cry, it's just asking why you cut the line." Chu Lingyi, a straight man, is really not good at coaxing children.

Mu Li couldn't stand it anymore, and the little boy bit his lip and tried to hold back his emotions. "Come, let's go this way." Mu Li led the little boy aside.

"Tell my sister, why are you cutting in line, you see that everyone else is queuing." Mu Li gently stroked the little boy's head, trying to calm his emotions.

The little boy secretly glanced at Mu Li, and felt that Mu Li looked much kinder than the person just now. Only then did he speak: "Sister, I have a younger sister and younger brother at home......

"Don't cry, don't cry. Can you take my sister to see it? Mu Li felt that the little boy was very pitiful, and there must be something else, so he had to cut in line.

"Hmm." The little boy nodded with tears in his eyes.

Mu Li got up and pulled the little boy to go to see the younger brother and sister he said, but Chu Lingyi grabbed his arm. "Don't go."
