The mercenary queen was bound by a system and transmigrated to the Great Zhou Dynasty, becoming the Prime Minister's fake young miss. She originally wanted to enjoy a comfortable retirement, bu...
Ignoring the system's cuteness, Li Mengyue's whole body tensed up. Even if these refugees were pitiful, they would become her main force in earning gratitude points.
But she would never indulge him. Anyone who wanted to have enough food had to rely on his own hands, or he would starve to death.
Just as Li Mengyue was thinking of rushing into the city to talk to County Magistrate Yang about the refugee situation, a man suddenly knelt in front of her.
"Girl, please be kind and give me some food to save my son."
"Woo... Girl, my son hasn't eaten anything for two days and two nights. Just give him a little bit. Please save my poor son."
Li Mengyue saw the child in the woman's arms. The child looked only three or four years old, a tiny baby with closed eyes, pale lips, and a thin face with cheekbones clearly visible. His breathing was weak. If he didn't eat, he probably wouldn't be able to survive for half a day.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
The moment the woman kowtowed, Li Mengyue dodged to the side. The time for her to give the woman food and save the poor child was not now.
After all, judging from the visual evidence, there are at least more than 30,000 refugees at the city gate.
If she took pity on the woman and her son and offered him food, she believed that the refugees around who were waiting eagerly for the food would definitely rush over.
No matter how strong her fighting skills were, she could easily escape from the crowd without having to resort to force.
These refugees did nothing wrong. They just wanted to eat and survive. They had no grudge against her, so there was no need for her to hurt them.
The important thing is that she also wants these people to appreciate her and feel grateful to her, so that she can gain gratitude points.
Now if she wants to save these refugees, she must first go to the county government to find County Magistrate Yang.
She could first ask the villagers to come to the city gate to distribute porridge to these refugees so that they could survive.
But more than 30,000 people consume food every day, which is not a small amount.
If she took out a large amount of food at once, there would be no problem in the short term, but over time, careful people would definitely notice it and trace the source of the food.
No matter what, the system mall and space cannot be exposed, and she does not allow them to be exposed.
If she hadn't collected enough gratitude points by then, she would be targeted and get into big trouble, which was not what she wanted.
Her original goal was to find a beautiful place to retire.
Later, the system gave her a gratitude duty, forcing her to find ways to help the poor.
After all, only by collecting enough gratitude points can she survive in this world, the system will not be wiped out, and she will have the opportunity to seek revenge on the little bastard.
Therefore, no matter what, she has to take care of these refugees, and she has to take good care of them so that these people can live a better life.
Only by letting the refugees live and making a radical change from before can you gain more gratitude points and have a better chance of completing the mission.
Looking at the kneeling woman, Li Mengyue felt sorry for her, but had to harden her heart temporarily.
"Auntie, you get up first."
"Girl, please, please."
"Auntie, I haven't eaten either. Otherwise, I would have given it to you a long time ago."
After Li Mengyue finished speaking, she started to cry loudly, hoping to beg Li Mengyue for mercy on the woman, but her crying stopped abruptly, and her eyes unconsciously looked towards the backpack.
Seeing the woman's glance in that direction, Li Mengyue knew there was something she didn't understand. She quickly untied the backpack, placed it on the ground, and tilted it slightly so that the woman could see clearly whether there was anything in the backpack.
Looking at the empty backpack, the woman who was full of hope fell into despair, like an eggplant hit by frost.
The refugees who looked at Li Mengyue with green eyes had different reactions when they saw the empty backpacks.
Some people burst into tears, some knelt on the ground and begged God to save them, some collapsed on the ground with dull eyes, not knowing what to do next, and some even slapped themselves in the face.
Li Mengyue took in the expressions of the refugees around her. She controlled her emotions and walked over to the child.
He picked up the child, placed him in the woman's arms, turned around and walked towards the city gate.
