Chapter 230: The Situation on the Frontier

Therefore, most of the time it depends on the consciousness of the locals, and it is generally donated by local rich people or ordinary people, but businessmen are profit-oriented, and they are generally not willing to do this thankless task.

It's just a big wonder that Shen Yingniang is a big wonder, people not only donate money to the Salesian Hospital, but also sponsor many poor students to go to school, of course, they are all gifted children.

This point, everyone can understand it better, after all, children who are smart and willing to learn can win glory for their hometown after reading it, Shen Yingniang has done these things, which makes everyone admire, this is the unity of knowledge and action.

Shen Yingniang generously accepted everyone's compliments, and then let everyone disperse, after all, she didn't want to continue to gather here to watch the play.

When the lively crowd was almost gone, Shen Yingniang looked at the child and asked, "Child, where are you from?" Where's your mom and dad? ”

Shen Yingniang didn't open her mouth to accuse children of stealing things, after all, people are dying, for stuttering, that's not called stealing, that's called emergency avoidance!

Who knew that the child was full of vigilance against Shen Yingniang, and there was a trace of unconvincing in his eyes: "This silver should be borrowed from you, you tell me what your name is?" I've got money, I'll pay you back! ”

Yue Lingjun and Shen Yingniang both raised their eyebrows, but this kid was a little ...... I don't know what to do.

However, Shen Yingniang and Yue Lingjun are both broad-minded people, and they will not worry about a child, but there is a saying? The emperor is not in a hurry, and the eunuch is in a hurry!

Shen Yingniang and Yue Lingjun hadn't had a seizure yet, and Brother Li next to him couldn't look at it, so he pointed at the kid angrily and scolded.

"Ouch, I mean, what's the matter with you kid? Why are you so blind? People have helped you, and they are your benefactors! Did you talk to your benefactor like that? And the money is returned to the family, what will you pay back? I sold you for less than two taels of silver! ”

Shen Yingniang saw that Brother Li was getting more and more excited, so she quickly stopped the person, smiled and said.

"Brother Li, don't be angry, it's just a child, and I just don't like to listen to what I say, but where did this child come from? We don't have that many beggars here. ”

When Brother Xiao Li heard this, he sighed, mainly because he did know something, and he didn't bother to bother with the child, so he said directly to Shen Yingniang.

"It's not rumored that the frontier is going to fight, but whether this side of the frontier will be fought or not, we don't know, our Huaxian County is not far from the frontier, it is not far away, it is not close to it, anyway, if it really starts, we may be in danger here."

Shen Yingniang frowned and asked, "What does these beggars have to do with whether the frontier wants to fight or not?" Isn't this still a fight yet? ”

Brother Xiao Li saw that Shen Yingniang had no concept at all, so he hurriedly explained to her, neither of them noticed, Yue Lingjun next to him changed his face, his lips were pursed tightly, and his eyes also fell into deep thought, as if he was thinking about something.

Brother Xiao Li said to Shen Yingniang seriously: "Shopkeeper Shen, you haven't been to Huaxian much recently, so I don't know, if this is a war, is this food very important?" As soon as this grain is important, it can be regarded as a strange thing, and those profiteers like to hoard grain, and then the price of grain will rise? ”

"Don't you know, the price of grain in our grain store in Huaxian County has risen, but fortunately, the price has been suppressed by our troubles, but I think it's okay, if there is a real fight in Xinjiang here, this grain will definitely rise."

"So, I've been discussing with my daughter-in-law recently whether to stock up on more food, lest there be a real fight when the time comes, we can't even buy food, we can have no money, but this food must not be missing!"

Shen Yingniang's expression couldn't help but be a little solemn, these gossip messages seem to have no basis, that is, they are not convincing, but they are groundless, since everyone is spreading it like this, it means that the frontier may really be a little unstable.

And Shen Yingniang also heard Yue Lingjun mention that the barbarians seem to have been provoking, if this really starts, it is really not good.

"For the sake of you borrowing my buns, I'll give you a piece of news, the frontier is indeed fighting, but it is not explicitly fighting, and the price of food will definitely rise, if you want to stock up on food, it's better to stock up early, don't be able to buy it when you want to."

Just when Shen Yingniang and Yue Lingjun were deep in thought, the child suddenly said this.

Brother Xiao Li laughed angrily: "You little brat, what kind of existence are you looking for?" Did you speak? Just you? Also sell us news? Do you know what it means to raise food prices? ”

The child felt that he was underestimated, and glared at Brother Li unconvinced and said, "Believe it or not!" If you have the ability, don't hoard, don't talk about selling steamed buns when the time comes, you can't afford to eat steamed buns yourself! ”

Brother Xiao Li only saw that the child was deliberately playing, but Shen Yingniang saw the hatred flashing in the child's eyes.

That hatred is not directed at Brother Xiao Li, nor at himself, but at others, it seems that this kid has a story......

Shen Yingniang thought about it, this kid is not from their Huaxian County, and it doesn't look like an accent, so it should be from somewhere else, and it just happened to be mixed with the affairs of the frontier, so this kid is from the frontier nine times out of ten, just to inquire about some news.

So Shen Yingniang asked directly: "Child, what's going on?" How do I hear you by this, you have experienced the increase in food prices? How did you come here? ”

The child seemed to have found an outlet, and he didn't hide it, but gritted his teeth and said with anger in his eyes.

"I'm telling the truth, if you hadn't borrowed my buns, I wouldn't have told you, the frontier did fight, the barbarian bastards occupied our village, we escaped overnight, all the way to this side, and then passed through Huaxian."

After the kid finished speaking, he stuffed a few buns into his clothes again, and then suddenly pounced and knelt down in front of Shen Yingniang and Brother Li.

The two were startled, although Brother Xiao Li didn't like the child very much, but he was really not a bad person, so he hurriedly went to help the child up, but his hand was just stretched out, and the child avoided him.

The child raised his little face and said with a serious face: "No matter what, you have really helped me a lot, I really just need this bun, I want to kowtow to you, I borrowed this bun, I still have younger brothers and sisters to raise, but I will definitely pay it back in the future!" ”

As he said this, the child's voice choked.

"My father and mother told me that we must be upright and upright, and we can't do things like stealing chickens and dogs, but if I don't steal, my brothers and sisters and I will starve to death, and it's okay if I starve to death, but who will take care of my brothers and sisters?"

After speaking, the child directly kowtowed to Shen Yingniang and Xiao Li three times, and when he lifted it, his forehead was broken and red.

At this time, Brother Xiao Li couldn't say anything, Shen Yingniang also sighed heavily, and the two of them pulled the child up left and right.

Brother Xiao Li said helplessly: "You stinky boy, you just say it directly in this situation, do you think I look like a bad person?" In this way, if you are really hungry, bring your younger brothers and sisters over, although I am in a small business, but it is okay to give you a meal once in a while. ”

After Brother Xiao Li finished speaking, he patted the child on the shoulder and left, before leaving, he didn't forget to say goodbye to Shen Yingniang.

Shen Yingniang waved her hand at Brother Xiao Li, then withdrew her gaze, and glanced at Yue Lingjun, the couple had a very tacit understanding, and the two quietly blocked the child's way.

Shen Yingniang looked directly at the child and asked, "You said that the frontier is fighting, I believe you, what is your name?" Maybe I can help you, you can trust me. ”

Who knew that when Shen Yingniang asked like this, the child looked at Shen Yingniang vigilantly and said.

"I do thank you for paying for the buns for me, but don't try to get words out of my mouth!"

Speaking of this, the child's face was full of disdain: "I know what you think, but it's just spending a little money, sending some kindness to us so-called poor people, finding some sense of existence, and wanting me to praise you for being a good person, right?" Okay, you're a good person! ”

Shen Yingniang was stunned by what the child said.

How can this kid still have two faces? Didn't Fang Cai kowtow to her with a thousand thanks, why did she suddenly change her face?

As if seeing Shen Yingniang's confusion, the child said seriously: "Don't have this expression, you people, I know, it is you who are kind, and it is you rich people who take advantage of the fire to rob!" ”

"All our food was bought by you rich people in advance, if it weren't for this, we wouldn't have been able to escape from our hometowns and here, you are all the same dogs!"

As the child spoke, he suddenly became irritable again, and the whole person didn't look normal anyway.

If Shen Yingniang was alone, she might not have the heart to continue talking to this child.

Who knows if this kid will jump up and slap her in the next second? It's just that this kid doesn't look normal.

Yue Lingjun grasped the point, he stared at the child and asked.

"Didn't you just say that it was the barbarians who took over your land? Why is it related to rich people again? Are those rich people the rich people of the barbarian race, or the rich people of Great Xia? You have to be clear. ”

Yue Lingjun looks very majestic, especially when he has a straight face, it is terrifying, and ordinary children will cry in fear when they see it.

Although this child looks stubborn and does not look like an ordinary immature child, he is still suppressed by Yue Lingjun's momentum.

Although reluctantly, he still muttered an explanation.

"Q...... So much to do? It's not you rich people who lure the wolf into the house, I have seen it all, those barbarian bastards, first a team of men and horses occupied our village, burned down our village houses, killed the people in our village, and after the others were scared away, it didn't take long for me to see a few of our local rich businessmen go to our village. ”

"Originally, I watched secretly, I thought they would be arrested by those barbarians and ask for ransom from their families, but who knows, I saw those rich people greeting those bastards of the barbarians, and the two sides chatted quite happily, and then those barbarians took the money from those rich people."

The child's face was full of hatred.

"I heard them with my own ears! It is said that the barbarians do business without capital, occupy our land, and after we escape, make us think that our land has been encroached upon, and then give the land to those rich people. ”

"It's not to let it, it's to sell, and the price is very low, so, both sides are happy, only we were robbed of our homes, we were robbed of our land, we had nothing, we were all robbed."
