Chapter 130: Empathy
The next morning, the weather was a little clearer, and Pearl had planned to let people go out to see the situation on the official road, but now that I think about it, it's better to forget it. Those people weren't going to leave so soon. Although I don't know what the government plans to do, I don't think it will arrange people in such a short time.
Because of the rain, everyone put the issue of rain prevention on the agenda, and although the stable built yesterday is simple, it can still be used to some extent. The next day, everyone started to prepare again.
After breakfast, Wang Liang and Chu Yan were responsible for looking for food around today, and they also brought bows and arrows out. In the past two days, Wang Liang and his guards have been hot, and Uncle Zhong is also the most decent one to do the work, so he doesn't want to tell his guards what Pearl wants to do, but he talks to Uncle Zhong, but he can get a lot of on-demand.
At noon, I suddenly heard some noises, Pearl listened carefully, and didn't dare to move, and Uncle Zhong's reaction was fast, signaling Mama Zhao to follow the girls to Pearl's car to hide, and he took Liu Qing and Chu Xiong to prepare to meet the enemy.
Seeing the place where the other party appeared, Liu Qing rushed over with an arrow step, and the sword in his hand touched the man's neck, and he was very surprised when he looked at it, and when he looked back, he was even more out of ideas, and shouted at Uncle Zhong,
"Uncle Zhong!"
Uncle Zhong asked Chu Xiong to look at the movements around him, and he went over to see Liu Qing with vigilance. Liu Qing in front of him was a little stunned, frowning, and didn't know what to do, because there was a ragged and unkempt woman lying on the ground, behind her. There were four more of these people huddled.
Uncle Zhong said to the woman who was about to faint, "Who are you?" ”
Uncle Zhong's voice was not small, those women were already hungry, they had just escaped, and when they saw someone, they were relieved to take a breath, and the people in front of the meeting were also afraid, and a woman behind them still had some strength, so she hurriedly came out to speak.
"We escaped. Those people bought us. I was going to buy a place like that, and they told my parents that they were going to be maids. ”
Speaking of this, the five girls all cried, and Chu Xiong saw that there was no threat elsewhere. Walk over to the carriage. Please bring the pearls out. Uncle Zhong also returned. He went up to Pearl and said,
"Mrs. Liu. These five are runaway girls. Ran from the hands of human teeth. It seems that he was deceived, I thought I was selling it to be a maid, who would have thought ...... Ay! Several girls are stubborn and would rather die than go to such a woman. ”
Pearl thought for a moment and said, "How much silver was sold, if it was a refugee, I'm afraid I wouldn't give much." ”
Pearl said as he walked over to where those people were, Uncle Zhong thought for a moment and said, "Actually, you don't need to give money, some of them are already good if they give a steamed bun at most." Besides, I also want the child to be able to eat and not be starved to death. Presumably, those people also knew very well that the girl might fall into such a place, but it was good to be alive. ”
When Pearl heard this, she paused the tape, thinking that it was possible, and walked up to the girls, and Pearl asked, "Is it just you?" What about the others? ”
The girl who took the lead raised her head and replied, "We originally discussed running together, but only the five of us insisted, and the rest were timid except crying, afraid of being beaten to death, and didn't dare to run with them." ”
"Someone was killed?" Pearl grasps the point of the other party's words,
"Hmm!" The girl apparently understood.
I'm afraid I'm still afraid of death, Pearl thinks that a few girls still have merit, but it would be nice if they didn't show up at such a time, after all, they are now difficult to protect themselves!
A few girls are not only hungry, but also thirsty, yesterday's rain does not necessarily mean that they can not be thirsty now, but two girls because of yesterday's rain sickness, forced a breath, ran out with the other three girls, at this time has begun to have a fever.
Those refugee pearls really had no choice, but these girls made Pearl hesitate a little, and the third girl saw that the girls were pitiful, so she said to Pearl, "Sister, save them!" ”
"Madame, save them!" Qingfeng also empathizes and feels that people should be saved.
Pearl looked at them and said, "But we don't have much food now. ”
Sanniu thought for a while, and then said, "Sister, we still have horses, and a horse-drawn cart is also fine, if you can't hold on, you can't see someone starve to death if you kill a horse!" ”
Pearl nodded, that's right, and said to Qingfeng, "Boil some boiling water for them, and then cook the rest of the fried rice later." ”
Sanniu said with some surprise, "Sister, they're hungry." ”
"I know, silly girl, the longer you are hungry, the more you can't eat this full meal, you have to eat something that is easy to digest first, otherwise something will happen."
Sanniu nodded, turned around and went to take care of the girls, explaining to them by the way. Pearl looked at the appearance of the third girl, and felt uncomfortable in her heart, although Liu Tonghammer and his wife were reluctant to mention the matter of the pearl being sold, but the pearl still heard about it from the mouths of the third girl and the second girl, no matter what happened at the beginning, after all, it was a scar in the heart of the family, and no one wanted something similar to happen to their family again. That's why Sanniu has so much pity for these girls.
A few girls ate something, and finally had some strength, but there was no water to wash them here, knowing that they also relied on wild vegetables and hunting to satisfy their hunger, the three girls who were not sick hurriedly followed Sanniu and Qingfeng out to find food, and Liu Zi followed Pearl to take care of it.
A bowl of water was placed in front of Pearl, and Pearl thought about it and decided to cure the two girls' illnesses. I took out two capsules from the space, put them in the water to melt them, and then put them in front of the two girls, and let them drink half of them. But I put two capsules, nothing else, pearls have been tested a long time ago, the body of the ancients has never been destroyed by antibiotics, all are still very sensitive to drugs, these two people have eaten one capsule is enough.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for the two girls to fall asleep, they fell asleep in their tent in the breeze, the bunk was covered with soft mats, covered with blankets, and their stomachs were not empty, and they soon fell asleep.
When Wang Liang and Chu Yan came back, they saw two women asleep and three women who were picking up wild vegetables on the side. Pearl smiled and watched the two of them harvest, and took the water bag back to get ready to cook.
Today I was lucky, and I hit a small wild boar of thirty or fifty pounds, which has been cleaned up, because it is still very difficult for them to use water here. In addition to the small wild boar, there was also a pheasant, four fish of different sizes. Pearl first made a crucian carp stew with wild vegetables, and asked people to stew pork in another pot, cut it into palm-sized pieces, and the pig's head and trotters were not thrown away, but they were boiled together, and when the fish in the small pot was ready, water was put in this pot and the rice was steamed.
