Wang Erniu, a person from Wangjiazhuang in Datong Mansion.

Like the vast majority of refugees, they couldn't survive at home, so they had to flee to Datong Province.

finally arrived outside the city, and when he saw the situation here, Wang Erniu was blinded.

The situation here was completely beyond his expectations.

Along the way, Wang Erniu can be regarded as having seen hell on earth.

The hungry people can do anything.

Wang Erniu has seen more than once that someone is boiling meat on the road.

But at this time, Datong Mansion is really thousands of miles away.

Anything that can be eaten has already been completely eaten.

Not to mention the book fur and grass leaves, it can barely be considered a satisfying thing

Even if it's Guanyin soil, it's almost impossible to find it at this time.

Animals, not to mention.

Therefore, meat can still be eaten at various times......

Well, it goes without saying what kind of meat those people can eat.

Because Wang Erniu is only one person carrying his mother, he occasionally encounters some ill-intentioned eyes.

Faced with this situation, Wang Erniu didn't have a good way.

After all, although he has a lot of strength, he hasn't eaten anything for several days at this time, his hands and feet are weak, and he is already very reluctant to stand.

Not to mention, while dealing with those with bad intentions, you also have to protect your mother.

However, although Wang Erniu is not a smart person, he also has a clumsy tenacity.

He knew he couldn't deal with these people, so he didn't bother with them.

He gritted his teeth, carried his mother on his back, and kept moving forward.

Those with bad intentions followed them at the beginning.

But after going far, their strength couldn't keep up, and they simply gave up in the end.

In this way, Wang Erniu carried his mother on his back and walked all the way from his hometown to Datong Mansion.

Needless to say, how hard it was along the way, Wang Erniu, a sturdy young man, is now skinny and skinny, which shows how Wang Erniu survived this way.

Wang Erniu's mother felt sorry for her son, and proposed to Wang Erniu several times to let him go and beg for his life.

Wang Erniu was stupid and couldn't say anything beautiful, anyway, he gritted his teeth and held on.

The two didn't even think that they could make it all the way to Datong Mansion.

It can be regarded as an eye-opener, and the two of them accidentally ran into a rabbit on the road.

Wang Erniu's mother quietly dried the rabbit meat into jerky.

The two of them didn't dare to eat more, but they were really hungry, so they secretly ate a little.

And most of these jerky also fell into Wang Erniu's stomach.

After all, Wang Erniu must need to supplement nutrition if he wants to carry his mother on his back.

Originally, Wang Erniu thought that even if he arrived in Datong Mansion, the situation would not change much.

After all, what kind of virtue is the government, and these ordinary people know it best.

The only hope is to receive a bowl of gruel every day and survive it.

But the scene outside Datong Mansion is very different from what Wang Erniu imagined.

The people here are not like walking corpses, but they are barely living.

But it seems that life is quite good, and many people even seem to be a little lucky.

If you hadn't experienced it yourself, it would have been hellish.

Wang Ergou couldn't believe that the current Datong Mansion was experiencing a terrifying drought that was rare in thousands of years.

As soon as they arrived in the disaster area, someone arranged for Wang Ergou and them to live in a refugee camp.

The name of this place may not sound very good, but Wang Ergou was surprised to find that this place seemed to be even better than when they lived in the village.

They were a group of a dozen people, led by an officer, through the camp.

There are neat wooden houses built here, and you can see people working on them in the distance.

"In our refugee camp, we now give soup once a day."

"So even if you don't do anything, you can live here for free and eat a bowl of porridge every day."

"This benefit will continue until the drought is over."

Hearing the officials say this, the refugees burst into whispers.

As for being able to be late for a bowl of porridge every day, these people basically have no opinion.

After all, the people on this land are really the most hard-working group of people on this planet.

As long as they can barely eat, as long as they don't starve to death, no matter how hard it is, they can face it.

Being able to eat a bowl of porridge is much better than the desperate situation they faced on the way to escape the famine.

What's more, the imperial court not only provided rice porridge, but also a place to stay.

These wooden houses are even better than the thatched huts that many of them live in the countryside, and they are still clean and tidy.

Officials who take these refugees on tours of the camps seem to have become commonplace.

I didn't care about their whispers at all, and just continued to introduce them on my own.

"I don't recommend that you do that, though. When you came here just now, you should have heard about the recruits outside. ”

"In our refugee camp, as long as you are diligent with your hands and feet, not only will you not starve to death, but you will still be able to live well."

"Everyone is a person with hands and feet, why do you live on 10,000 gruel every day?"

"Although after you get a job, the court no longer serves gruel. However, anyone who is a little serious about making a living, and he can't look down on these gruel, and it's difficult to even fill his stomach. ”

When Wang Erniu heard this, he hurriedly raised his hand desperately.

Looking at his anxious roar, you can make up his eager screams.

"I'm me, I'm here, I've got a problem." This is what it looks like.

The official just didn't want to notice Wang Erniu, and asked a little speechlessly: "Do you have any questions to say?"

In the past, he wouldn't even look at someone like Wang Erniu.

But now, His Royal Highness has repeatedly ordered them to treat these people like the Jade Emperor.

Whoever makes the Jinyi Guards find out that they are unreasonable to these ordinary people, His Royal Highness will not let them go.

For the sake of their own future, these officials can only knock out their teeth and swallow them in their stomachs.

Wang Erniu looked worried: "My lord, my mother is not in good health and can hardly do anything, can he only drink gruel?"

"I heard from those recruiters before, when I go to work, I only provide one meal, and I go to work, what should I do?"

The official secretly rolled his eyes, and said in his heart that these mud legs just don't know what it means to be calm.

"I'm about to tell you about this."

"You can rest assured, if it is really the elderly, the weak, the sick and the pregnant who are really physically inconvenient."

"Even if they don't work, they can live on some of the most basic food."

"In addition, the imperial court will also provide them with some work to clean the streets and wash clothes, so that they will not go hungry."

As he spoke, the official looked to the side and pointed.

Everyone turned their heads to look, and on the street next to them, there was really a gray-haired old man who was seriously sweeping the street.

Looking at the serious appearance of this old man, it is as if he wants to sweep this dirt street spotlessly.

"I see, then I'm relieved." Wang Erniu, who was carrying his own mother, looked relieved.

"Come with me." The official greeted and continued to walk into the refugee camp with the people who had fled the famine.

As you walk, you will continue to introduce yourself to the crowd.

"Our refugee camp was built by the imperial court for the people who fled, so there are no special rules."

"But there are two things, which you must pay attention to and obey."

All the refugees noticed that when they talked about it, there was a very painful expression on the official's face.

Coughing lightly twice, the official continued: "First, open defecation is absolutely not allowed. No matter how anxious you are, even if you are about to pull it in your pants, you must go to the public toilet to solve it. ”

As he spoke, the official gestured to a strange building next to him.

In front of this building, there was also an old lady, accompanied by a small bench, looking around with burning eyes.

Immediately, the official pointed to the public toilet and said, "In addition to having to come here to use the toilet, you should also be careful not to go into the wrong toilet."

"The one on the left is a man, and the one on the right is a woman."

If you are found to have deliberately run to the wrong toilet, you will be beaten with a board or paraded through the streets.

When the people who fled the famine heard this, they all couldn't help but swallow their saliva.

It was still Wang Erniu, who couldn't help but raise his hand and asked, "My lord, but what should I do if I don't know how to read?"

The official is speechless, why do you seem to be quite proud if you don't know how to read?

Forget it, I'm too lazy to be as knowledgeable as this illiterate.

"If you really can't remember, just ask the old lady outside before you go to the toilet."

"They'll tell you where the men's restroom is and where the women's restroom is."

There was a buzz of discussion among the people fleeing the famine.

"This is really an eye-opener, I've never heard of it, and I have to take care of other people's and pee."

"Who came up with this spring attention? I have to come here to go to the bathroom? So what if I'm too late? ”

For the rules that even this kind of thing has to be managed, these people who fled the wasteland resist from the bottom of their hearts.

The official smiled, and at this time, there was a group of five people, who happened to form a row and slowly staggered past them.

Seeing these people, the official snorted coldly with disdain.

It feels like you're walking down the street and suddenly stepping on shit.

Although it didn't cause any real damage, the mood was extremely heavy.

"See these people?"

The people all looked at the group of people who came over in confusion.

These people actually seem to feel good.

The whole body is clean and tidy, and when you walk, the queue is neat, and the back is straight.

It's not at all what they have in their impression that those officials who can only bully ordinary people look like.

Soon, however, after hearing the official's explanation, the faces of many people changed.

"These are the chengguan of our refugee camp. They are in charge of your open defecation. ”

"The first time you are caught defecating in the open, you will be directly fined for one day's salary...... If you get caught again, it's not just a fine."

Silk!

Before the official could finish speaking, he heard the voices of one after another until he became cold.

The other victims can endure it, and even if it's a board, it's not a big deal.

But the fine money, this is really terrible.

Suddenly, the eyes of these people, looking at those chengguans, immediately became unkind.

For this situation, those chengguan who have long been familiar with it can't be more familiar, so they don't pay attention to it at all.

The two sides staggered by, without stopping at all.

The official smacked out, "Phew, something."

He then went on to explain: "The second rule in the refugee camp is that no one should drink raw water."

"All the water in the mouth must be boiled and allowed to cool before drinking."

The people who fled looked at each other and did not understand.

You have to take care of and pee, why do you have to drink water?

Some of them have not escaped before.

In the past, when they ran into the local government offices, why didn't they break so many rules?

Although there were a thousand words in their hearts, they didn't say much.

After all, at a time like this, it is already very rare to have a bite to eat, and no matter how big the rules are, it is better than starving to death.

Soon, the officer led them to their lodgings.

It's a house that is joined together, four or five rooms together.

One of the advantages of building a house this way is that many of the houses in the middle share a wall, which can save a lot of building materials.

Of course, the downside is that you almost don't want to have a meal with sound insulation at all.

No matter what you want to do, the person next door can hear it clearly.

At a time like this, if there is a tile to cover their heads, these refugees are already grateful to Dade, and as for other things, they will not force it.

"One room per house...... Your name is Wang Erniu, right? You live in the top one. ”

The official directly pointed out the first room at the beginning to Wang Erniu.

It's not that you can take care of it, and it's not that you can wear any small shoes for Wang Erniu.

It's just that because Wang Erniu only has two of them, the room they need will definitely not be too big, so they were given a small room.

"Thank you, my lord, the kindness of the adults will never be forgotten." Wang Erniu sincerely thanked.

Although there are more rules here, it can be regarded as giving them a short-term place to live, and Wang Erniu is really grateful from the bottom of his heart.

Entering the room, the space here is indeed not large, and it can barely fit two beds, a table, and a simple stove.

On the two-chapter bed, some simple futons were also placed.

Although this room is not big, it is well equipped.

The floor was clean, and the room smelled of new wood.

Wang Ergou was embarrassed, and his mother put it on the bed, and the tears came down.

"Mother, we finally got through it, Uncle Seven, they ......"

Saying that, Wang Erniu was already choked up and was about to lose his words.

The mother comforted Wang Ergou softly.

I had just cleaned up briefly when I heard someone beating a gong outside.

"It's dinner time!"
