After Liu Zongzheng left, Wu Yong was about to say goodbye, when he came to Wancheng, the family specially explained that he would go back earlier, but he didn't expect to encounter so many things, seeing that the sky was about to get dark, he hurriedly came to the backyard to say goodbye to Cheng Ying, and was led out of the city by Steward Wang.

After separating from Steward Wang, Li Zhong began to hurry up.

There was nothing to say all the way, and when he was about to reach Fuwangli, the carriage, which had been running smoothly, suddenly stopped, woke up Wu Yong, who was in deep thought, and couldn't help but ask loudly: "Uncle Zhong, what's the matter?" ”

Li Zhong panicked and said: "Xiao Langjun, it is a homeless person, there are many homeless people. ”

Wu Yong opened the curtain and looked out, only to see a group of homeless people blocking the road in the distance, and they didn't know what was going on, they all gathered at the gate of Fuwangli, and when they saw the Li family's carriage coming, they deliberately made way out of the way.

Li Zhong drove the carriage in fear, for fear that these homeless people would suddenly come out.

Wu Yong looked at them one by one, yellow and thin, ragged clothes, it is still early spring, although the temperature around Wancheng is about ten degrees, but the spring cold is precipitous, freezing kills the young, and it is evening, many people are shivering from the cold, but when they saw the carriage passing, they did not have any bad thoughts, but just looked at Wu Yong in the carriage pitifully.

The carriage was walking very slowly, and suddenly Wu Yong saw a little girl of five or six years old huddled in the arms of a woman, and said in an extremely weak voice: "Mother, I'm hungry!" ”

The woman tightened her into her arms, looked at the carriage, showed a hopeful gaze, and comforted her softly: "Good girl, bear with me for a while, someone just now got the food of the gods, and my mother didn't grab it because of her little strength, and it will be our turn later." ”

Wu Yong's nose was sour, as a person of later generations, he didn't have to worry about food and clothing since he was a child, no one thought about food and clothing, even if he traveled to this era, he didn't have enough food and clothing, and now when he saw these homeless people, he found that this era was not as beautiful as he imagined.

Wu Yong wanted to keep the green onion cakes in the car for the sisters at home to eat, but he really couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart, so he shouted, "Uncle Zhong, stop the car." ”

When the carriage stopped, Wu Yong beckoned to a few children in the crowd, "Let the children come over, I have food for them." ”

The crowd automatically split their ways, and they were not hungry enough to lose their conscience, so they naturally did not grab food from the children.

Dozens of children soon gathered here, and Wu Yong divided the green onion cakes in the food box one by one.

At this time, the child was also very polite, and after getting the cake, he did not forget to bow and thank Wu Yong, and then quickly ran to his parents.

But when it was the turn of the little girl who made Wu Yong's nose sour, the green onion cake was gone, and Wu Yong had never been so embarrassed.

The little girl also saw that the cake was gone, her mouth was deflated, tears were rolling in her eyes, and she looked like she was about to cry.

Fortunately, Wu Yong thought that there was still a meat bun prepared for him by his grandmother in the car, so he quickly took it out and handed it to the little girl, "This is for you, I am reluctant to eat it." ”

The little girl's face suddenly turned cloudy and clear, and she smiled sweetly at Wu Yong, "Thank you, brother!" ”

Wu Yong saw that these children did not eat it immediately, but shared it with their relatives, and his heart was very moved, and he couldn't wait to return to Lizhong immediately to discuss the rescue with the villagers, so he urged Li Zhong to speed up.

After this incident, the displaced people who were blocking the carriage also automatically separated the road, Wu Yong quickly arrived at the inner door, slapped the door a few times, and shouted loudly inside: "I'm Wu Yong, I'm back, open the door quickly." ”

In order not to cause misunderstanding, these displaced people automatically retreated far back. When the carriage entered the middle and the inner door was closed, it gathered again.

As soon as Wu Yong entered the middle school, he was hugged by Cheng Zhao, and then he found that not only his own people were there, but also the men, women and children in the middle of the house, and at the same time, the head of the family with the fifth surname and Guo Fei and his party were also there.

Everyone was relieved to see Wu Yong return safely.

Wu Yong comforted Hao Chengzhao and asked Zhu Lidian: "Uncle, why are there so many homeless people gathered at the gate of Fuwangli?" ”

At this time, Li Tiandian stood up, sighed, and said: "I am also to blame for this, at first I thought that these homeless people were poor people in the nearby township who came to beg for food, so I gave them some free relief buns, who knew that they would get into trouble, these homeless people began to flock to it, and after less than two hours, the door of our Fuwang was blocked, and there are still homeless people who continue to rush here." ”

Guo Fei was already impatient, and shouted loudly: "What's the use of talking about this now? We're all stuck here, and we can't get out if we want to. ”

Wu Yong saw that everyone was thinking about how to get out, and there was no awareness of relieving the displaced people, so he couldn't help but ask a little angrily: "You are all gone, what about those displaced people?" Can't we find a way to get a relief? ”

Li Huang walked over, patted him on the shoulder, and sighed: "Wu Yong, you are still young, you don't know what's at stake, you should also be able to see that it's not that we don't want to save it, it's just that there are too many of these displaced people." I heard them say that they were only the first batch to flee from Yin, Henan.

Last year, the flood and drought were not festive, and the crops were not successful, resulting in the lack of grain, especially in Hanoi County and Henan Yin, which were the most serious, so many people came in the first batch, and there will be more people in the future. ”

Wu Yong glanced at the group of displaced people across the river, and found that with this ability to speak, the team on the opposite side seemed to be stronger.

Regarding Li Huang's words, Wu Yong wanted to open his mouth to refute it several times, but when he saw the nervous expressions of the villagers, his eyes couldn't help but reveal uncontrollable sadness, and finally he could only ask himself: "Can you only watch these homeless people starve to death?" ”

At this time, he suddenly remembered a record in the ancient books he had seen before: In the first month of spring in the third year, the women of Hanoi ate their husbands, and the husbands of Henan people ate women.

What a catastrophe! Why didn't anyone stand up and stop it? Is this the mission of reliving one's life?

Wu Yong thought about it, suddenly gritted his teeth, pointed to the sky, and swore: "I, Wu Yong, make a statement here, as far as I can see, I will not see hunger, if I violate this word, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed." ”

Everyone looked at him in amazement, but Guo Shi reacted quickly, hugged Wu Yong, and cried and said: "My son, how could you swear so badly!" ”

Wu Yong smiled at this time, "Mother, when the child saw the tragic experience of these homeless people today, he understood God's intention to make me confused and too vain all these years. As the saying goes, 'a tree does not grow without roots, and a person does not stand without ambition'. ”

"Good! It is worthy of being the descendant of my five-surname family, and since you have this ambition, I must fully support the head of the family. Li Huang was the first to stand up in support, and then the other four heads of the family also hurriedly expressed their support.

Those who can be the head of the family are not stupid, Wu Yong made up his mind in front of them today, as long as it is not a big rebellion, they should support it.

With the support of the heads of the family, Wu Yong became more confident, and immediately asked Zhu Lidian to open the inner door, and he personally went out to talk to the homeless people. Although he was determined to help the hungry, he also knew that he could not give them food without a bottom line. According to his idea, he was to emulate the cash-for-work method of later generations, so that these homeless people could work in exchange for food. As for what to do, he still has to think carefully, and the most important thing at the moment is to pacify these displaced people.

Just as he was about to walk out of the inner door, Guo Fei shouted, "Slow! ”

Seeing Wu Yong's view, Guo Fei coughed lightly, "The virtuous nephew set up Lingyunzhi today, how can we, who are elders, be indifferent, you go outside and tell these homeless people, I, Guo Fei, are here to make a statement, in the next ten days, their food, I Guo Fei will take care of it." ”

When the rest of the merchants saw this, they also said that each of them would take care of the food of these displaced people for ten days.

Wu Yong was overjoyed when he heard this, hugged his fists, and turned around to negotiate with the homeless people.

As soon as Wu Yong left, everyone came to the old lady of the Wu family and congratulated: "With this unicorn, the prosperity of the family is imminent." ”

Here Wu Yong walked out of Fuwang, and the crowd suddenly split into a way. To be honest, being stared at by hundreds of pairs of eyes left and right, Wu Yong was still a little weak-hearted, but thinking of his oath today, Wu Yong's eyes became firm again.

Wu Yong walked to a carriage, asked two tall homeless people to lift him to the roof of the car, and arched his hand to the group of homeless people who had gathered: "Uncles and brothers, aunts and sisters who have come from afar, my name is Wu Yong." ”

After a pause, Wu Yong continued: "Maybe none of you have heard of me, but some of you have tasted the immortal food today are all made by me teaching the villagers. ”

The crowd was agitated for a while, Wu Yong ignored them, and said: "I won't hide it from you, I have been in the fugue for many years, and I can make thousands of delicacies, but the one you eat is the easiest way. ”

The homeless people looked at each other, not understanding what Wu Yong meant by saying these words.

Wu Yong continued to say loudly: "You have suffered disasters and fallen into trouble, and you have come to this Fuwang just to beg for food!" I, Wu Yong, can guarantee that you will not only be full, but also eat better! ”

The homeless people were stunned and looked at Wu Yong at a loss.

Wu Yong said: "But there is no free food in the world, if you want to eat my food, you need to do things for me." ”

Someone in the crowd shouted, "I won't do murder and break the law." ”

Wu Yong smiled, he has a conscience and a bottom line, which is a good thing.

"I won't sell myself into slavery!"

Wu Yong's smile is even stronger, he has ambition and dignity, so that he will not be able to make trouble easily.

After the homeless people were noisy for a while, Wu Yongcai said with a smile: "It's useless for you to tell me these demands!" I just want to find someone to open up the wasteland for me, dig ponds to raise fish, and open up mountains to grow fruits. You work for a day, I'll take care of a day's food, that's all. ”

The homeless people were stunned, "What Xiao Langjun said is true?" ”

Wu Yong pretended to be angry and said: "Do you think I'm young and don't take my words seriously!" I, Wu Yong, can swear to the sky, if there is half a sentence today, the sky will thunder and die! ”

At this time, a group of children shouted: "We believe in Brother, the green onion cake he just gave us is delicious!" ”

The crowd burst into laughter, and the tension diluted considerably.
