Chapter 435: Strange Tranquility
"Mrs. Wang, how is it, but you found it?"
Zhang Cong has been restless since Li Yuan and the others finished talking to him yesterday.
No one knows better than him how important this batch of materials is to the people of Liuyun County at this moment.
"Found it!"
Wang Can nodded affirmatively, and when she saw Li Qinghua and Old Man Li and the others coming over together, she added another sentence.
"The place is a bit far away, a little close to the Dayun River."
When Old Man Li heard this, he looked into the carriage, and then asked, "Canniang, are you coming back alone?" What about Yuan Niang? ”
"Master, my brother-in-law has prepared a lot of things, and my sister is guarding over there."
Zhang Cong was a little impatient, and when he heard this, he looked sideways at Li Qinghua: "Patriarch Li, according to what he said during the day, lend me your carriage and ox cart first." ”
Li Qinghua nodded: "Well, I told everyone that if you want it here, you can make it available to you at any time." But Zhang Zhutou, even if you transport everything back, how do you transport it back to Liuyun County from here? ”
Zhang Cong thought about it carefully, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "Since that side is close to the Dayun River, why don't you go there and make a boat." Anyway, now that the embankment has been destroyed, and the flooding of Liuyun County is like that, there is no fear of a water drop. Now it's much faster to go back from the river than the official road! In this way, there is no need for ox carts! ”
As he spoke, he looked at Wang Can: "I'll call the brothers now." I'm tired of the king's wife, take me over later. ”
"Well, as long as you don't let me catch the car, you can do it at any time."
"Don't worry, Mrs. Wang, I'll catch the carriage!"
The carriage that night, after all, was not driven by Zhang Cong, but by Bai Yan.
When he took people away, he also brought a lot of things.
There are rice, flour, and coarse grains, warm clothing, and wild vegetables.
These are all people in Li Jiaao who know that he is leaving, squeezing out of what he has.
In the eyes of the people of Lijiaao, Liuyun County is their hometown, and even if they don't have anything to eat, they are better than those who have suffered disasters.
The less they eat, the more others can drink.
They are going all the way to Luyang Mansion, and they don't have many things with them, so they can help as much as they can now.
Because of this friendship, Zhang Cong and other thirty or so old men had red eyes when they left.
They all know that it is not easy for the Li Jiaao people themselves.
Although there are not many things given, the courtesy is light and affectionate, especially at this moment.
The handover of materials between Li Yuan and Zhang Cong was quite smooth!
This Zhuangzi itself is close to the Dayun River, and there are no people around, and when she releases things, she is also extremely relieved.
After Zhang Cong arrived, she made a list according to the materials she took out, and then followed the list and checked Zhang Cong one by one.
After making sure that it was correct, he followed Wang Can and got into the carriage driven by Bai Yan and walked back.
What Li Yuan didn't know was that not long after she left here, because she got the supplies, she was thinking about whether to find a way to get two boats first, and transport a batch of materials back to Zhang Cong in Yunxian County.
At that time, Wang Can in the carriage was next to her and asked softly: "Sister, how do I feel that the things you gave out are more than the seventy percent we said before?" ”
"Hmmm! The disaster in Liuyun County is serious, and the relief materials from the imperial court do not know when they will arrive. It's not easy for the people, let's help more if we can. I have space to be there, and even if the crops in it grow slowly, there will be a day when they will grow. And if I take out one more pound of rice, I can save one more person. Now that's the limit I can give. Canniang, I have a clear conscience and I did my best! ”
Wang Can didn't speak, just patted her on the back, and felt a lot of emotion in his heart.
Sister Yuan Niang is really kind, and the materials she has worked so hard to accumulate for so long have been donated without even blinking an eye.
In this world, there are really few people who can do this.
Sister, she really deserves to be the person chosen by God!
*
The people of Li Jiaao did not stay long in Dankou Village.
After Zhang Cong, Wang Can and others left, Li Qinghua left a month's rations for the five people in Dankou Village according to the previous plan, and then led everyone on the road again.
I don't know if it's because the road is muddy and difficult to walk, although this time I am still walking in heavy rain, and there is not much water on the road, but the speed is much slower than before.
It was a heavy rainy day, and no one seemed to want to go out, and even if there were, most of them were in a hurry
Bai Yan knew the route Li Qinghua and they took, so Li Yuan and Wang Can didn't lag too far behind, and they chased after them that day.
It's just that when they arrived, it happened to be evening, and the people of Li Jiaao were resting in an open place.
And around, there were a number of people with sallow faces and extremely thin looks.
Those people wore tattered hats on their heads and thin wet clothes on their bodies, and they followed them not far away from the time they met the people of Li Jiaao.
The people of Li Jiaao go, they go.
The people of Li Jiaao stopped, they stopped.
When the people of Li Jiaao were eating, they stared at it and didn't say a word.
This made everyone at a loss, and they wanted to open their mouths to drive people away, but this road was not theirs, and they couldn't do anything where people wanted to go and where they wanted to stand.
I don't know if it was because of the arrival of Li Yuan's carriage, which broke this strange tranquility.
Before she could speak, an anxious-looking woman, holding a thin child in her arms, suddenly rushed to Li Yuan's carriage and knelt down.
"Good man, my child is dying, please do well, give the stutter!"
Because it was close to its destination, Bai Yan's carriage was not fast.
Even so, it was the woman's actions that startled her.
He hurriedly grabbed the reins, and after avoiding people, he looked at the woman viciously and said, "If you want to die, get out of the way, don't come to me to find bad luck!" ”
In the middle of the open space, Li Qinghua, who was sitting in the carriage and couldn't eat all the time, heard the movement and walked over.
The people who were originally around, Xu knew that he was the main person in this group, and they also gathered together.
Seeing this, Bai Yan took out his horsewhip and threw it viciously to the ground, and then stood on the wheel, looking at those people condescendingly.
"If you want to die, just lean over!"
He saw the greed and desire in the eyes of those people clearly.
This kind of person is pitiful, but he knows better than anyone else that he must not easily sympathize, nor can he start this way.
Once they start, they are the ones who are pitiful in the end.
Don't look at the other party, there are few people, but some people's hearts are evil, but they are not what simple people like Li Jiaao can imagine.
As soon as Li Yuan and Wang Can got out of the carriage, they saw the eyes of those people.
Some are curious, some are inquisitive, and some are malicious.
"Canniang, don't be afraid!"
Sensing Wang Can's slightly trembling body, Li Yuan held her hand tightly and comforted her softly.
She knew that this girl was probably thinking of the bad experiences in her previous life!
"Sister, with you, I'm not afraid!"
