Chapter 198: Survival in Troubled Times

Woo, sister, I was wrong! That afternoon, Qin Ya'er rushed into Qin Wanqing's courtyard with tears on her face, and cried with remorse: "I won't waste silver again!" Whining. ”

  The people in the north of the city were so pitiful, living in dilapidated houses, and some even slept directly on the streets, and he saw with his own eyes that poor families set up stalls in front of their homes and sold their children, just to be able to exchange a bite to eat.

  Qin Ya'er had only heard that the north of the city was poor, but he didn't expect it to be so poor, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he couldn't believe his eyes.

  The roots of the grass, the bark of the trees, everything that could be eaten, were boiled and eaten by them.

  In the realm of the capital, there is still such a thing happening?

  Qin Ya'er scooped up the rice porridge for a whole afternoon, and her hands were sore, but the poor people still poured in.

  These porridges are fixed, and those who come late can only go hungry.

  But those poor people were in good order, and they didn't fight or grab, and they lined up like that.

  When Qin Ya'er scooped the last bowl, there was an old man in his nineties behind him.

  The old man held a branch in his hand and waited there tremblingly, he should have been in line for almost two hours.

  When he saw that the porridge was gone, two lines of hot tears crossed the old man's dry eyes, forming two deep tear stains on his wrinkled and dark face.

  Qin Ya'er felt that her heart was also blocked, and with a "wow", she couldn't help crying.

  They are so pathetic!

  At that time, Qin Ya'er couldn't wait to conjure up another bowl of porridge and hand it to the old man.

  recalled that I deceived my brother-in-law into eating abalone with so much silver, but it was really undeserved.

  I'm afraid that the meal of abalone he ate is enough for all the people in the north of the city to have at least three months of rice porridge!

  Qin Ya'er's heart was full of guilt, and she ran all the way back home.

  Qin Wanqing watched Qin Ya'er cry and sobbed, and wiped his tears with a handkerchief, which shows that her brother's heart is still kind.

  "If you know your mistakes, you will be a good child." Qin Wanqing patted Qin Ya'er on the shoulder: "You have been cooking porridge for an afternoon, and you have worked hard, my sister will give you a few copper plates, and you will go buy sugar gourds to eat." ”

  "Woo, sister, I don't eat sugar gourds anymore, you better keep the copper plate for the soup kitchen!" Qin Ya'er cried and said, "I still have ten copper plates of private money there, I will give them to you, and you can also take them to the soup kitchen!" ”

  “…… Good. Seeing her brother crying pitifully, Qin Wanqing didn't want to hit him, ten copper plates were too shabby, as the little son of the Hou Mansion, she only had ten copper plates of private money, was she too stingy with her brother?

  "Ya'er," Qin Wanqing tugged at Qin Ya'er's sleeve: "The next time you meet the second uncle, you will pull his trouser leg and ask him for pocket money." ”

  "Second uncle?" Qin Ya'er blinked.

  Soon, he understood that the second room was in charge of the first application of the house, and he had to spend money, shouldn't he find the second uncle?

  The Zhao family is so stingy, every time he distributes silver to each room, he treats him as a child and does not give him moon silver in the yard.

  Qin Ya'er finally reacted, no wonder he was so poor, he had no money, he was obviously the little son of the Hou Mansion, and his poor purse jingled.

  Since the Zhao family didn't give him silver, then ask the second uncle who loves face!

  Sure enough, it's still his sister who is smart!
