Chapter 167: Reaching Out Again

After Ling Xiu'er finished delivering the steamed buns, she found a corner that no one cared about, and used the blood in the porcelain bottle to turn the chickens and ducks on the embroidered cloth into real objects.

This scene is also funny, Ling Xiu'er is a woman, driving a group of chickens and ducks, and one of them falls behind from time to time. Ling Xiu'er still has to wait for it. There are chickens and ducks running around, and Ling Xiu'er has to catch them back. Messed her up alone, guarded this one and slipped away again.

It took a lot of energy for Ling Xiu'er to drive the group of chickens and ducks to the street just now.

When the group of refugees saw Ling Xiu'er, who had just handed out a large bag of white-flour steamed buns, and drove a group of chickens and ducks over, their faces were full of surprise and a little dazed.

What is this girl doing with a flock of chickens and ducks?

In fact, they knew at a glance that Ling Xiu'er was not a local, they had never seen her, and they didn't listen to Ling Xiu'er's accent. The refugees don't know where Ling Xiu'er made up so many steamed buns, as well as these chickens and ducks. You must know that in the current period of natural disasters, the price of grain has been raised by unscrupulous merchants, and the rich and noble families do not need to say that they usually see their own chickens, ducks, rice and noodles well, for fear that the food reserves are not enough and will not be able to survive the flood.

Therefore, there were people who used to sell their chickens and ducks for some silver, but now they really can't see it.

Ling Xiu'er came to the refugees a little funny, obviously knowing that her current state was a little embarrassing, she smiled embarrassedly, and said to everyone: "I'm sorry, let you see the smile." These chickens and ducks are also for you, but the number is not very large, and it is impossible to achieve one per person, so you can take one family as a group, and take one from each family. ”

Those refugees obviously didn't expect that Ling Xiu'er would actually give them chickens and ducks after delivering steamed buns! For a moment, they were all a little incredulous, and no one went forward to take it.

Ling Xiu'er saw that they didn't move, and she was a little inexplicable, and at this time, a chicken broke away from the army and wanted to have a free trip. Ling Xiu'er was a step too late to catch it, and said to the refugees: "Come and help, catch that chicken!" ”

One chicken is hard to beat several people. Under the siege and interception of a group of refugees, he was still obediently captured.

Ling Xiu'er saw that someone had caught the chicken, and said to the man with a smile: "Okay, this chicken will be given to you!" ”

Only then did everyone believe that Ling Xiu'er really wanted to give them the chicken.

Ling Xiu'er sent steamed buns just now has attracted the attention of people on the street, this time seeing Ling Xiu'er actually send chickens and ducks to those refugees, this group of passers-by is simply stunned, at this time, it is too late for each family to store food, there are fools here to give chickens and ducks to refugees for free?

They all expressed incomprehension of Ling Xiu'er's behavior. Ling Xiu'er didn't know that she had become a celebrity in this county. These passers-by spread ten, ten passed on hundreds. The whole county knew that there was a woman delivering chickens and ducks to refugees.

"Hey! What are you still doing in a daze, come and get it. Otherwise, how could I be able to watch this group of chickens and ducks alone. ”

Originally, Ling Xiu'er said that it was easy to take advantage of loopholes, but the group of refugees did not do this, they were still very honest, and they really received one for each family.

When a woman took the chicken handed over by Ling Xiu'er, she couldn't hold back her tears. She choked up and said to Ling Xiu'er: "Girl, you are such a good person! We don't know how many blank eyes and how many abuses we have received along the way. Many counties and towns did not allow us to enter the city, so we came here. The prefectural magistrate here is a very good man and distributes dry food to us. Now that I have met you again, we really don't know how to repay the girl for such a great kindness. Let me kowtow to you a few times, the girl is like this, the Bodhisattva will definitely bless the girl with all the best in everything, and her wish will come true. ”

As she spoke, the woman was about to kneel down and thank Ling Xiu'er. Ling Xiu'er quickly pulled her up, and hurriedly said, "Auntie, you really don't have to be like this, I can't stand it." This is a natural disaster, and no one wants to see it. You have lost your home because of this disaster, how can you survive if you encounter another man-made disaster? I don't want to repay you for helping you, even if it's for me. ”

"Girl, you him." The woman heard Ling Xiu'er talk about her husband, and this afternoon, Ling Xiu'er was sending steamed buns and chickens and ducks, and there was no man to help her, so she subconsciously asked.

"My father-in-law was originally an official who controlled the water, but he was just ...... Everyone said that he had been washed away by the water..."Ling Xiu'er really couldn't bear to say the word "dead", because she had never admitted it in her heart.

The woman naturally knew what Ling Xiu'er's unspoken words were, and knew that Ling Xiu'er's sadness was mentioned, and she didn't know how to comfort Ling Xiu'er: "Girl, Ji people have their own natural appearance. You are a good person, and so must you be, and there will be miracles. ”

"That's what I thought too." Although Ling Xiu'er's expression became sad after mentioning Cao Yu, it revealed tenacity.

When she was about to say something, a man hurriedly ran from a distance, and as soon as he saw the chickens and ducks near Ling Xiu'er, he went straight to Ling Xiu'er.

When Ling Xiu'er saw the man's appearance, she thought that he was here to grab the chickens and ducks, so she hurriedly took two steps forward to protect the chickens and ducks behind her.

As soon as the man came to Ling Xiu'er, he gave her a big salute. Ling Xiu'er never expected it, and the cautious expression on her face froze before it faded.

"Please girl, please sell me a few chickens."

"Huh?"

"Here's the thing, my family just gave birth recently, and I should have nourished myself during the confinement period, but when I encountered this flood again, I had nowhere to buy it even if I wanted to. I heard that the neighbor said that the girl is here to send chickens and ducks, so I came to ask the girl to sell me a few. ”

The man's appearance was very eager and sincere, and he was a little nervous that Ling Xiu'er would not agree.

The plot reversed, Ling Xiu'er didn't react at once, and only came back to her senses after the man called her again: "Of course you can, you don't need your money." It's just that I don't have many chickens and ducks here, and I have to share them with these people, so I can only give you 3 chickens, okay? ”

"Thank you, girl, thank you. I must give this money, girl, please accept it. ”

Ling Xiu'er didn't look at the man carefully just now, but now that she looked at it, she found that the man's clothes were a little whitish, and at first glance, he had been wearing them for a long time, and there were neat patches in some places. Obviously, the man's family conditions are not very good, but even under such conditions, he is willing to buy chickens for his wife.

"This chicken and duck itself is a gift from me to these refugees, if I ask you for money again, then what will I become? Take it and pick 3 females. ”

The man thanked him again and again, but he didn't know what to say. Ling Xiu'er talked for a long time before persuading the man to give money, and asked him to hurry back and stew chicken soup for his wife.

Looking at the back of the man leaving, Ling Xiu'er couldn't help but think: How good it would be if Xianggong were here.
