Chapter 45

No matter what kind of disaster it is, it is always the people at the bottom who are most injured.

.….….…

Peng Cheng.

Just over thirty-five, only one daughter is the company.

He lost his parents when he was young and was widowed in middle age.

I also broke my leg while carrying heavy loads a few years ago.

It can be said that Peng Cheng has already encountered most of the tribulations that a man can encounter.

Fortunately, my daughter is sensible.

Daughter Peng Qimeng, although she is only 15 years old, has already started to help others sew outside to support the family.

So much so, despite her young age, she already had dry calluses on her hands, which contrasted sharply with her handsome face.

After Peng Cheng broke his leg, the family relied on his daughter to support him.

If it weren't for this snow disaster, the life of the father and daughter would still be able to sustain themselves.

No, when the first snow fell, my daughter also bought some meat dishes for the family.

However, the snow kept falling.

Except for rice, the price of everything has gone up.

On the third day after the first snowfall, the father and daughter emptied the rice jar and cooked a pot of porridge. Didn't give the rats a chance.

On the fifth day after the first snowfall, the house was no longer open.

However, the snow did not stop.

Peng Cheng looked at his well-behaved daughter, often secretly wept, hated the tricks of fate, and was also relieved to have such a daughter.

However, Peng Cheng planned to give up.

I don't want to be a drag on my daughter anymore.

I thought to myself, "If it weren't for me, my daughter wouldn't be as hungry as she is now, even if she went to someone else's house to work as a servant." ”

Peng Cheng called Peng Qimeng to the bedside, took his daughter's rough hand, and tears couldn't stop flowing down.

"Daughter, do you listen to your father?"

Peng Qimeng nodded.

"Let's go outside and scoop up a bowl of snow and cook some water for Daddy, okay?"

Peng Qimeng nodded again.

"Then help Dad pour more rat poison into the bowl."

When Peng Qimeng heard this, she suddenly raised her head and looked at her father in horror.

Then he ran out of the house as if he had escaped.

.….….…

The snowflakes in the sky slapped on Peng Qimeng's young shoulders.

The thin Peng Qimeng trembled.

It's not cold, she doesn't even feel cold now.

It's afraid.

Daughters cherish their fathers the most.

But I didn't expect my father to have a will for life and death.

I don't know if it's a fateful arrangement or a chance coincidence.

Peng Qimeng walked to the Xinghua Bridge.

There are rumors in the market that the little girl wants to sell herself, so she waits on the Xinghua Bridge.

Peng Qi dreamed of that rumor, standing on the Xinghua Bridge, motionless, all he thought about was making money to buy food for his father.

The weather is cold, the clothes are thin, and the snow is fluttering.

After a while, the little girl's consciousness gradually blurred.

Just as he was about to fall unconscious, a carriage slowly drove up.

Bai Xiaoman's cousin got out of the carriage and took Peng Qimeng away.

.….….…

"Mr. Chen, the address has been chosen, in the north of the city, it is not remote, there are hundreds of acres of land."

"Please also give Mr. Chen a name." Liu Sisi said to Chen Bai with a smile.

Chen Bai almost blurted out: "Siwei, let's call it Siwei Co., Ltd." ”

"It also means being prepared for danger in times of peace."

After speaking, Chen Bai turned his head to look at Hong Chiyu and said, "Let's go, let's go and have a look together." ”

Hong Chiyu nodded when he heard this, since the first snow, he didn't step out of the house, just enough to go out for a walk.

.….….…

The snowflakes fluttered lightly, revealing a biting coldness.

Liu Sisi, Chen Bai, and Hong Chiyu walked in the direction of the north of the city.

After walking for only a few miles, Chen Bai suddenly stopped.

I saw a frozen old man walking sideways on the side of the road.

Chen Bai hurriedly stepped forward to check, but he was no longer breathing.

Chen Bai didn't expect that this snow would freeze to death, and his mood instantly fell to the bottom.

Looking at the somewhat collapsed houses on the side, Chen Bai realized that this snow might be a beautiful murderous knife.

"You're waiting here." After Chen Bai finished speaking, he ran forward without looking back.

After walking for more than ten miles, I saw more people who froze to death and broken houses.

Chen Bai was angry, angry at the inaction of the goose returning to the city, and quickly pondered the emergency method.

turned around and found Hong Chiyu and the others.

"Go back to Uncle Hong." Chen Bai's face was gloomy, and he pulled up Hong Chiyu and walked back, and Liu Sisi also followed quickly.

Back to the house.

Chen Bai's face was still very ugly, and he said to the blind man, "Can you take me to the city lord?" ”

The blind man nodded, grabbed Chen Bai's arm, and went out, and before Chen Bai could react, he had already arrived at the City Lord's Mansion.

Ji Guangwen was in a very bad state because of the snow disaster, and when he saw the blind man bringing someone over, he hurriedly greeted him, and gave a salute and said, "Mr. Hong." ”

Chen Bai glared at Ji Guangwen angrily, clenched his fists, interrupted Ji Guangwen's words, and said, "City Lord, people are freezing to death in the city. ”

When Ji Guangwen heard this, he was stunned at first, but he didn't expect this person to talk about this as soon as he came up.

This was followed by a visible desolation, saying, "Yes, people are frozen to death." ”

"I have also tried my best, if I can turn the situation around, I will not hesitate to scatter all my family wealth."

"But now, the money is useless, and food and clothing are needed."

"I went to all the big families, and very few were willing to donate or sell supplies."

The geese have returned to the city, and there has been a point where they can't buy things with money.

Chen Bai was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and suddenly turned his head to look at the blind man.

Seeing this, the blind man said: "Brother Chen, the Hong family's rice has always been at a parity and has been supplied. ”

Ji Guangwen reacted when he heard this, and his feelings were Chen Bai in Hong Chiyu's mouth.

Chen Bai still stared at the blind man, and said without the slightest hesitation: "I will use the exercises to exchange with the Hong family, and the Hong family will supply unlimited free hot porridge." ”

Hong Chiyu didn't hand over the exercises to the Hong family, Chen Bai knew it.

When the blind man heard this, he immediately looked at Ji Guangwen with "sharp eyes".

"Exercises!" When Ji Guangwen heard this, he set off a storm in his heart, and when he saw the blind man's "gaze", he instantly broke out in a cold sweat.

Ji Guangwen hurriedly bowed to Chen Bai and said, "I will return to all the people in the city on behalf of the wild goose, thank you Mr. Chen." ”

After speaking, he said to the blind man: "Mr. Hong, if the wild goose returns to the city to survive the difficulties, I am willing to die to apologize, but my wife and daughter ........."

Hearing this, the blind man raised his hand to stop Ji Guangwen, gave Chen Bai a salute, and said, "There is no need for exchange, I will go back and arrange it immediately." ”

This gift is a heartfelt thank you Chen Bai for reminding him of his Hong family's mission to protect Lingshan.

Chen Bai nodded, turned his head and said to Ji Guangwen: "City Lord, have you heard of Le Shi's merits?" ”

Seeing Ji Guangwen shaking his head, Chen Bai continued: "Find a boulder to stand in the city and record the number of donations from each family in this snow disaster. ”

After speaking, he didn't give Ji Guangwen time to react, and said directly to the blind man: "Let's go, Uncle Hong." ”

.….….…

After Chen Bai and the others left, Ji Guangwen repeatedly chanted in his mouth, "Le Shi Ji Gong." ”

It took a long time to react, and Le Shi Ji Gong is not only to recognize the donor, but also to see who donated less.
