Chapter 376: Soup kitchen
Meng Lanqing didn't expect that a peasant girl in the quiet area would have such a great righteousness, and almost emptied all the rice shops to save the people of Jingtian County, and she was very surprised and admired.
Immediately, he respected the princess even more.
To be honest, although he seemed to be respectful to Quiet before, and treated Quiet as a princess, he actually didn't accept Quiet as a princess at all, he always felt that Quiet was not worthy of their grandfather.
But at the moment, he didn't have that idea at all.
I have seen this princess many times, and he has changed his opinion of this princess little by little, until now, he sincerely accepts this princess and respects this princess.
And his younger brother, after knowing this, will definitely be like him, and will never feel that this princess is not worthy of their grandfather again.
His grandfather's vision of people is really not comparable to them.
"Yes!" Meng Lanqing clenched her fists, extremely respectful and loud.
"How's the water treatment in Jingtian County?" Quiet asked again.
Meng Lanqing told truthfully: "The people of the government are already governing, the water near the Shi River is too turbulent, and it cannot be cured for the time being, so the water far away from the Shi River has been cured first, and the water in the central and northern parts of Jingtian County has been diverted to a small canyon in the north, and it is estimated that the water in the central and northern parts of Jingtian County will be completely drained tomorrow." ”
It was quiet and didn't ask anything more.
Although the government is distributing grain, the daily distribution of grain is getting less and less, even if the people in the government tell them every day that the emperor has allocated grain from the treasury and is on the way, but the people of Jingtian County are pessimistic.
In addition, the water in Jingtian County has not been completely treated, which makes the people of Jingtian County even more pessimistic.
Before the relief grain from the state treasury was distributed to them, some ordinary people in Jingtian County had already left Jingtian County with their families and flocked to nearby counties, intending to go to other places to see if there was a way out.
In particular, the people whose houses were destroyed had no homes and little food, and these people were the first to leave Jingtian County.
In less than half a month, a large number of victims poured into Hecheng County.
Even the Sixteen Towns had a lot of victims.
On this day, Jing Jing and Xiao Changyi went to Sixteen Towns to buy things, and found that there were many victims sitting in some corners, all hungry and panicked, looking extremely pitiful.
Even, one of the victims was so hungry that he even grabbed the steamed buns of the vendors selling steamed buns on the roadside to eat.
Fortunately, there were officials patrolling the town, and they quickly controlled the victims who grabbed steamed buns to eat.
Looking at this scene, Quiet sighed deeply in his heart.
Now there is only one victim like this, but the more time passes, the hungrier they become, and they don't find a way out, and more and more victims will be like this.
And the relief food is still on the way, and it will take about a month to arrive
Thinking of this, Quiet sighed in his heart.
Just when she wanted to tell her father-in-law to take out the last 1,000 catties of grain and 1,000 catties of rice in the rice shop and boil them into multigrain porridge and distribute them to the victims, she heard it
"Everyone, let's go, Wang Shanren is giving porridge at the intersection in front, let's go drink it!"
It's Li Wuyu.
I saw Li Wuyu dressed as a man, holding a gong, and while striking the gong, he shouted to the victims sitting in the corners, telling them to go to the intersection in front of him to drink porridge.
When the victims heard that there was porridge to drink, whether it was true or not, they all got up and left.
