Chapter 653: Terrible
After shopping for most of the day, Xiao Ruige finally got tired of running, lying on the car window, his head little by little, squinting and dozing.
"Nobleman, nobleman, you are doing well, give a stutter, nobleman, you stutter!"
The sudden noise startled him to wake up from his sleep, and he got up so violently that he almost fell out of the car.
Xiao Ruige firmly held on to the car window, looked out, and shrank in fright.
Outside the car, a group of gray-haired, ragged beggars slammed into the side of the car and slammed the door desperately.
Obviously, the Xu family's carriage had left the bustling downtown and entered the chaotic area of Nan'an City.
The coachman, apparently experienced, did not look at it, and with a whip he struck the ground, causing him to take a step back, and the carriage immediately shook off the beggar and passed by.
Brother Xiao Rui opened his mouth, sighed for a while, and said to Fang Ruohua like a little adult: "Aunt Six, I know, my father said that if you meet a lot of beggars begging, you must not be kind enough to stop, otherwise I will be eaten by them." ”
Fang Ruohua half-closed his eyes and looked indifferent.
All kinds of numbers were counted on the big screen, and many sailors said: "There are a lot of beggars, and there are a lot of them outside the city, heh, this group of extras is hard enough, I saw the little girl lying in the corner three days ago, and I will look at it again three days later, she is still there." ”
"There is a port in Nan'an City, shouldn't we go to sea to buy grain in large quantities now?"
"That's right, food is the most important thing right now."
Fang Ruohua's carriage didn't stop, passing through the market.
Not far behind, Yan Huihui, a little girl wearing a snow-white cloak and half-covering her pink and pretty face, also saw the scene of the old beggar being driven away, and she couldn't bear it, and she bit her lip unconsciously: "People's hearts are indifferent, the world is so corrupt, is there still heavenly reason?" ”
She sighed, untied her purse, poured out all the broken silver, and handed it to the old beggar: "Take it and buy some food." ”
The old beggar snatched the money, protected it with all his might, looked around with fierce eyes, turned his head and ran.
"Hey."
Yan Huihui was knocked abruptly, and just wanted to say something, she suddenly felt a chill down her spine, and turned her head suddenly, a large group of beggars appeared out of nowhere, and the things in her eyes made her a little frightened.
"Good Samaritans, good Samaritans reward us with food."
"I'm so hungry, I'm so hungry, give me food, I want food!"
"Money, give me money!"
Yan Huihui was startled, retreated again and again, her face was white, and she reacted in her heart, and said repeatedly: "No, I have nothing!" ”
She wasn't actually confused, she was just inexperienced, and when she saw this situation at this time, she felt bad, glanced around, and rushed towards the people next to her who were also full of anxiety.
It's just that her speed is not fast enough, these beggars are ready to move, as soon as she runs, she immediately pounces on her regardless of it, even tugging and pulling, almost in the blink of an eye, the jewelry on Yan Huihui's head was stripped naked, and her clothes were torn.
The fishy smell was so strong that she was horrified for a while, and finally couldn't bear it anymore and screamed.
I think she was also pampered and grew up, she has never experienced wind and frost, although she reads a lot, how can she not be afraid when she encounters such a scene?
Just now she suddenly crossed the street, and several subordinates who protected her were separated from her by a distance even if they immediately followed, and at this time they were blocked by a large group of beggars.
One of them even brushed out a knife and cut off a beggar's head.
Blood splattered, and the beggars were stunned and stunned, but as soon as the blood sprayed, these beggars were instead aroused into anger, and they all rushed around as if they were crazy.
For a time, all the entourage was washed to pieces.
Fang Ruohua turned his head suddenly, obviously noticing that something was wrong, frowned, raised his breath, and shouted loudly: "There are people in the east of the city who put grain." ”
Her voice was extremely loud and confident, and after shouting, it was another one.
The beggars who were besieging were stunned, and there seemed to be people shouting all around, and someone in the east of the city was putting grain.
"Let's go."
The beggars finally staggered over.
Fang Ruohua sighed and said to the coachman: "Go back to the Xu family's shop and say goodbye to see if you can prepare some food." ”
The coachman was a little embarrassed and said in a low voice: "Once we start to release grain, the news will spread ten, ten, ten, hundreds, I'm afraid that all the victims will flock to it, and our food will not be able to withstand it at all." ”
As a merchant, the Xu family is naturally afraid that the victims will make trouble, if the food is abundant, the soup and medicine will be fine, of course, there is no problem, but since there is not so much food, if the grain is released, the victims will gather together......
It's scary to think about.
Fang Ruohua nodded and sighed: "I know, prepare first." ”
The coachman answered, and went to deliver the message.
Fang Ruohua didn't go to see the victim, the little girl was definitely not happy to let outsiders see this kind of disaster.
Indeed, Yan Huihui was squatting on the ground with her face covered, her hair was unkempt, and there were scratches on her mess, her cloak had already been torn off, and her clothes were torn to pieces, scattered and wrapped around her body.
"Woo!"
Several entourages were furious in their hearts, and hurriedly took off their coats and draped them over their young lady, covering her face, and helping her to leave quickly.
When she got home, Yan Huihui was in a trance, and when she looked up, she saw the anxious eyes of the nurse, and she cried loudly.
"Nurse, nurse, it's terrible, it's really terrible!"
The nurse was distressed, and she hugged her young lady for a long time before she calmed Yan Huihui down.
"Good miss, don't be afraid, sleep, sleep, just wait for us to go home."
"Madam, and all the little masters, are waiting for the young lady to come home."
Yan Huihui slept very soundly, and in her dream, countless victims tore her to pieces, which was very painful.
But she still muttered to herself: "I'm not going home, I'm going to find my cousin." ”
Fang Ruohua didn't pay much attention to this simple little girl, she was tired from shopping outside, and Xiao Ruige was a little frightened, so he hurriedly asked the coachman to go home, and went back to drink a bowl of soothing soup by himself.
Xiao Ruige drank the medicine, but he still had two night terrors, so that the nurses and grandmothers who took care of him didn't sleep well.
Fang Ruohua didn't worry about this little battle, but she was just as tired and tired, and her body was still uncomfortable.
On the contrary, Chunyu, the little girl, has a wide heart, does not feel scared at all, eats well, sleeps beautifully, and looks heartless.
Day 2
Fang Ruohua was sitting on the edge of the pond, slowly splitting bamboo knots while walking Xiao Ruige.
Her hands are very steady, but her breath is uneven, and she has to rest for a long time after a few splits.
"It's not the same time anymore."
Fang Ruohua rarely has a bad health, and this feeling is not wonderful at all.
was closing his eyes to recuperate, and he listened to Chunyu scolding not far away: "Stop, where did you come from, go to the backyard!" ”
Fang Ruohua turned his head slowly, and saw Chunyu with his waist in front of a tall and thin young man.
