Chapter 198 Fierce
The couple's evaluation of Huo Siyuan was surprisingly consistent.
Liang Moyuan turned around and looked up at Huo Jinjian: "If they try to intrude, we should do the same. This way, the enemy will be in the open while we will be in the dark. Let's see what they are planning."
Huo Jin saw this and nodded slowly.
Seeing that the hair was completely dry, he put down the cotton towel.
"It's been a tiring day. Let's rest early."
I got up before dawn and the moon is already high in the sky.
Huo Jin saw that his body, which had not yet fully recovered, was already exhausted.
The next day, before dawn, Liang Moyuan got up and washed and dressed.
She deliberately chose a narrow-legged dress, with shorts at the waist to match, and long pants on the bottom, and her silky long hair was wrapped in a bun.
Compared to the most plain outfit on ordinary days, it is simpler, even crude.
But even such an outfit could not conceal the dignified and noble aura emanating from her. One could tell at a glance that she was not an ordinary person.
"Miss, why do you have to dress so simply? Those refugees and common people know your identity." Mei Shu asked as he inserted the silver hairpin into Liang Moyuan's hair.
Liang Moyuan glanced at herself in the mirror and nodded with satisfaction: "Of course it's not to hide my identity. I just dress like this so that I can work better."
When Mei Shu heard Liang Moyuan say that they still had to work, his eyes widened.
They actually want these girls to work?
Seeing Mei Shu's somewhat unhappy look, Liang Moyuan reached out and gently tapped her head.
"Those refugees are starving. Even if we have to ask them to work in lieu of relief, they must first be well fed. As the director's wife, I naturally have to set an example and distribute food myself."
Liang Moyuan knew that thinking from the perspective of refugees was already far ahead of others.
Zhu Shu walked in with breakfast and happened to hear the conversation between Liang Moyuan and Mei Shu. He covered his mouth and chuckled.
"I just feel sorry for the young lady."
Liang Moyuan looked at Mei Shu with a gentle look in her eyes: "Then help me more."
Mei Shu pursed his lips and smiled, then immediately agreed.
When breakfast was served, Liang Moyuan wanted to wake up Huo Jinjian.
When I turned around, I saw that he was already dressed and walked out of the inner room after opening the curtain.
Last night, the palace delivered the official uniform. The base color was a gorgeous purple with a golden python on top. It was obviously not the style that a fourth-rank official should wear.
The loose official uniform could not hide Huo Jinjian's tall and strong figure at all.
Seeing Liang Moyuan dressed like this, Huo Jin's eyes flashed with surprise, and then he admired her: "Madam looks good in anything she wears."
Liang Moyuan was stunned by the sudden praise and couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.
I remember that when Huo Jin saw that she couldn't speak, he used handwriting to praise her directly.
After all, this is Huo Jin's true nature.
The heroine took the side dish handed to her by Mei Shu and said, "I asked Wei San to go to the place where the refugees gathered outside the city gate early this morning. I think he has a basic understanding of the situation by now."
Huo Jin took a sip of porridge and nodded: "How are the preparations at the porridge shop going?"
"Last night, I asked the porridge shop to prepare enough porridge and vegetables for two hundred refugees."
Liang Moyuan arranged all this properly, which shows her decisive style of doing things.
After breakfast, Huo Jinjian sat in the wheelchair again.
To perform the whole act, he naturally couldn't enter the palace in a wheelchair yesterday and walk briskly today.
Liang Moyuan and Huo Jinjian arrived outside the city gate.
From a distance, one could see the scaffolding that had been set up. Wei San, along with a few people from the Management Department, were comforting the refugees.
"These refugees are starving now. We can't be too nice to them, otherwise they won't listen to anything and will just scramble for food." Liang Moyuan slowed down and spoke to Huo Jinjian beside him.
Unexpectedly, Liang Moyuan thought this way. Huo Jin raised an eyebrow and asked, "Madam, aren't you afraid that people will say you are fierce?"
"Humph, so what if he's fierce? If a man is fierce, he's brave and manly, but when it comes to women, it's derogatory. I'm going to have that reputation."
Liang Moyuan didn't mind at all, and there was a hint of arrogance in her brows.
She and Huo Jinjian stood in front of the refugees.
Just by looking around, the refugees who had been noisy just now became silent.
Liang Moyuan looked at the refugees, who were all pale and thin, with fear and desire in their eyes, and she couldn't help but feel pity for them.
After all, they are all poor people who have lost their homes.
She stepped forward, her voice still gentle, "You all must have had a difficult journey to the capital. Your Majesty governs the country with benevolence, and I am deeply saddened to learn of your plight."
"We have now established a refugee management department, with Mr. Huo in front of you as the director, to find a way out for you all."
As soon as Liang Moyuan finished speaking, someone spoke.
"Instead of talking so much, it would be more practical to give us a bowl of porridge!"
Liang Moyuan glanced over and saw a dirty man speaking.
His eyes were full of indignation and he seemed very dissatisfied.
Liang Moyuan almost laughed out loud.
She still overestimated Huo Siyuan.
He secretly placed his own people among the refugees in order to blend in and avoid arousing suspicion from her and Huo Jin.
But the man who was speaking, apart from being dressed in rags, even had muscles on his body and plump cheeks.
His hair was just messy, which was a stark difference from the dry grass-like refugees around him.
Liang Moyuan tilted his head. Although he was smiling, he questioned mercilessly: "Hey, young man, before the establishment of the Management Office, the court distributed porridge every day. Could it be that you just arrived and can't wait for a while?"
