Chapter 598: Reconciliation between husband and wife

"Xiaoman, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of the Lu Mansion."

Xiao Man nodded with satisfaction.

Is the pearl thing ready?

"Alright, I've got four wagons in my fill."

"How long can four wagons feed the victims outside?"

Hearing Xiao Man's question, Pearl showed a look of embarrassment.

"Madam, let me tell you this, even if the victims outside only eat one steamed bun a day, I'm afraid you won't be able to last four days."

The refugees outside have been hungry for a long time, and it is simply impossible to have a steamed bun a day, not to mention that it is only four days, which is simply fleeting, so the villagers have nothing to eat, and they have no strength to fight the plague, what should I do?

Xiaoman, you go first, leave the matter of food to me and King Shen to solve, and the two of us will definitely go to all the rich and noble houses in Shangjing and bring you food.

Hearing the assurances of the Sharias, Xiao Man looked at King Shen, although he was still young, but he was also a descendant of the royal family, so naturally he should also pay a responsibility for the people.

Okay, I'll leave this matter to you, Pearl, let's go.

Xiaoman's immediate order to Pearl drove four carriages to the city gate, and sure enough, the soldiers at the city gate hurriedly stopped Su Xiaoman.

"Mrs. Lu, the emperor has a ban, and now the cities are absolutely not allowed to open it, so please go back quickly."

"My husband is still outside, and I want you to open the gates now."

"My Mrs. Lu is really not good, if we open the city gate now, there is a high probability that refugees will pour in, so we can't afford to be responsible."

"There is a lot of food and clothing for the victims in my carriage, you let me out and close the city gate, I promise never to enter the capital again, can't you?"

These two soldiers were still hesitant, if they really let a certain patient with the plague break into Shangjing, then the entire Shangjing would also fall into chaos, which was a big thing to lose their heads.

Xiao Man saw that the two of them were so selfish, so he said, "Think about it, if the people standing at the door now are your fathers and fellow villagers, your parents and brothers, will you still do this?" ”

The two soldiers put themselves in their shoes, and indeed they both joined the army because their families were too poor to survive. That feeling of having no food to eat and no clothes to wear will never be forgotten for the rest of their lives.

Now that there is a living bodhisattva like Su Xiaoman, who is willing to save refugees, how can they stop her in Shangjing.

So they slowly opened the city gate a small crack, let Su Xiaoman in, and then asked a few brothers to stand at the door with swords majestically, not allowing any refugees to approach, and then let the carriage pass through the gate of the capital.

"Mrs. Lu, your behavior really makes us admire, but our emperor is in charge, and it will be difficult for you to return to the capital now."

Su Xiaoman smiled, It's okay Until this matter is resolved, I won't step into the capital again.

Seeing Su Xiaoman so reasonable, the two soldiers couldn't help but be a little moved.

Lu Li resettled the refugees in the open space outside the city, he didn't feel a little depressed when he heard the voice of the refugees' hobbies, and he didn't know if he stayed here to be evil or lucky, if he really died of the plague, he couldn't go back to Shangjing to see Xiaoman in this life, what a pity.

knew that he should have confessed Wan Ling'er's matter to her before this, and begged for her forgiveness, and they would not be angry for so long, and they had not spoken properly.

Just when Lu Li was in a daze, his haunting voice suddenly sounded behind him, and Lu Li looked back and saw that it was Su Xiaoman in a water blue skirt standing behind him, and there were four big carts lined up behind him, which were full of food and supplies.

"Xiaoman, why are you here?"

Although Lu Li wanted to see Su Xiaoman very much, it was too dangerous here, and he would rather die here than see Su Xiaoman suffer like him.

So he hurriedly grabbed Su Xiaoman's hand and pulled her back to Shangjing.

"Lu Li, let go, what are you doing?"

"How can you get here? Go back quickly, the soldiers defending the city have something to do with me, as long as I tell them well, they will definitely let you re-enter the city, go quickly! ”

Xiao Man and Lu Li pushed and shoved, tears welled up all of a sudden, she turned around and hugged Lu Li tightly and didn't let go, "Lu Li, don't drive me away, I have been worried about your life and death when you went to the battlefield before, this time you are in danger again, finally I can accompany you this time, don't you drive me away?" ”

Hearing Xiao Man's heartfelt confession, Lu Li also felt a little unbearable in his heart.

"But Xiaoman is really too dangerous here, the refugees have already developed coma symptoms, if you are also sick, what should I do?"

"I'm not afraid of anything."

Lu Li looked at Xiao Man's eyes full of tears, which were so clear and transparent, and then looked at her cherry-like mouth. Lu Li felt that he missed it very much, so he lowered his head and kissed it gently, and the hearts of the two people were close again.

"Okay, since you're all out, let's face it together this time."

Lu Li held Xiao Man's hand tightly, making Xiao Man feel a thick temperature.

The pearl unloads everything.

Pearl nodded, called a few subordinates, took out all the food on the car, and as soon as the steamed buns were placed on the table, the refugees rushed up and began to grab the steamed buns one after another.

Su Xiaoman had never seen such a scene, and he didn't know what to do for a while, so he was so frightened that he hid behind Lu Li.

Lu Li was still assertive, and immediately pulled out his sword and forced everyone back.

Grab what, line up, take them one by one!

The refugees were already hungry at this time, and in order to get the steamed buns, they immediately lined up according to Lu Li's words, with the old and weak women and children in the front, and the young and strong men in the back.

Seeing such a scene, Xiaoman's heart is even more sad, the Jiangnan area is the land of fish and rice, and it is necessary to harvest the season in peacetime, where are people rare these steamed buns, but now everyone treats the steamed buns as gold in the palm of their hands, and their eyes are constantly looking around, for fear that someone will rob their own.

"Xiaoman, how many supplies did you bring this time?"

"It only lasts four days."

Lu Li frowned, only four days of food and now the city is not willing to transport medicine at all, once the plague begins to really break out, I am afraid that this place will become a human purgatory.

"Lu Li, don't worry, Salia and King Shen are already looking for food, I believe they will have a harvest, let's settle the refugees first and see how their conditions change."

Hearing that Xiao Man already had a plan, Lu Li naturally accepted it happily, so he immediately handed over a team of soldiers to wait for Xiao Man's dispatch.

Xiao Man has many years of experience in presiding over family affairs in Lu Mansion, although the number of refugees is huge at this time, but Xiao Man is still so well arranged, Lu Li looked at Xiao Man's busy figure and gradually felt that his life was indeed indispensable to Su Xiaoman.

At night, the refugees were almost all resting, and even if there were not enough tents, Xiaoman still asked the soldiers to make some temporary thatched huts for them to rest, and it was estimated that everyone was asleep at this time.

Only Lu Li was still lighting candles in the tent, looking at the follow-up arrangements, Xiao Man took a cloak and draped it on him, Lu Li felt Xiao Man's fingertips beating gently on his shoulders, and when he turned his head, he saw Xiao Man's gentle smiling face under the candlelight.

"It's so late, you better go to bed first, and wait until tomorrow morning to deal with these things."

"No, there are too many refugees, and if we don't make adjustments tonight, I'm afraid we will be caught off guard tomorrow."

Lu Li held Xiao Man's hand and gently pulled her, let her sit on his lap, and slowly hugged her, such an intimate way is rare after they get married.

Seeing that Lu Li was so active with him today, Xiao Man was also slightly surprised, put his arms around Lu Li's neck, and touched his tired face.

"Why didn't you get angry with me today?"

Hearing Xiao Man say this, although Lu Li was a man, he also felt embarrassed in his heart at this time, and his face turned red.

"I'm sorry, Xiaoman was all my fault for the other day, I apologize to you."

Xiao Man is naturally not a vexatious woman, since Lu Li is already willing to bow his head to him, and what he is leaving naturally has become angry talk, and it suddenly disappeared in the sweetness of the two.

"If you apologize, am I going to forgive you? I'm telling you, I'm still angry. ”

Hearing that Xiao Man was still angry, Lu Li hurriedly touched Xiao Man's heart, "Madam, don't be angry with me again, it's all my fault." ”

"Then can you tell me what happened to you the other day to make you so sullen?"

Hearing Xiao Man mention this matter again, Lu Li still felt speechless, and his hand around Xiao Man was a little heavier.

"When this is over, I'll give you a reasonable explanation, okay? It's just that now I don't know how to tell you these things. ”

Seeing that Lu Li was willing to tell himself, Xiao Man was already very happy, so he nodded, and put his head on Lu Li's shoulder socket, listening to the sound of his breathing quietly.

Seeing Xiao Man's so well-behaved appearance, Lu Li thought that he hadn't been married to Xiao Man for a long time, and couldn't help but feel a little unbearable, so Xiao Man, who was picked up by his waist, walked to the bed.

There were refugee tents all around, and it would be a shame if they made a noise later.

"Lu Li, forget it."

Xiao Man blushed, and his voice was soft.

But Lu Li just put Xiao Man on the bed and said in Xiao Man's ear.

"No, do you know how much I miss you?"

Xiao Man thought that it was really hard for the two to reconcile, and the wind and rain they had to face after that were really difficult, so Xiao Man no longer stopped Lu Li, and lay on the bed obediently, letting Lu Li fiddle.
