Chapter 87 Different Treatment
The soldier led Feng Aoqing and the two Baoers to the city gate.
There are several barracks for soldiers under the city gate, which are used for daily shift changes, rest, and storage of miscellaneous items.
They reached the door of the last room.
"Madam, the things in the room were prepared by Lord Han for you, the young master, and the young lady. The door can be locked from the inside. I will be guarding outside, so you can rest assured."
The soldier was polite and courteous, and even helped her open the door.
Feng Aoqing did not go in, but stood by the door and observed.
I took a quick look around the room and saw nothing amiss.
"I'll poison the door. Anyone who breaks in will die. If you can't stop them, just tell them this."
The soldier took a step back in fear: "Uh... yes, yes."
He saw Feng Aoqing bring the child into the house and lock the door.
Xingbao and Yuebao both exclaimed "Wow".
There was a square table in the room, with steaming food on it.
There is also a screen in the corner of the room, behind which are two bathtubs and a large bathtub. They look brand new and are filled with hot water.
Three new sets of clothes were placed on the chair. Although they were made of cloth, they were much better than the coarse cloth clothes he wore in exile.
Feng Aoqing looked through the clothes and found that the inner garments of the three people were all made of silk.
"Master Han prepared it for us, so we can't refuse it, right?"
"Yes!" the two little ones answered in unison.
She tested the water temperature and confirmed that it was not poisonous before she began to wash the two little ones.
I first washed my hair with water from one bucket, then carried it to another bucket to wash. The water was black both times. Finally, I washed it a third time in the bathtub, and it was finally clean.
After bringing them to the table to sit down, Feng Aoqing entered the space and took a nice bath.
She changed into the clothes Han Lang prepared for her, which fit her perfectly, not too much or too little.
Good man, your eyes are really sharp, or...
This bastard did a lot of things while I was unconscious!
When I see him again, I will poison his eyes and chop off his hands.
"Rose, mother smells so good." Yuebao sniffed and praised.
"You smell good too."
Feng Aoqing touched the two little faces and felt relieved after making sure that they had not caught any disease despite being exposed to wind and rain and covered in mud these days.
The kids were tougher than she thought.
She used a bowl to set aside the amount for the child, and then put the remaining food into a food box on the table.
While loading the food, he cursed: "Han Lang, you bastard, you did it on purpose. You roasted me on the fire and left me with only this little food. Who can eat it?"
While the children were eating, she filled another food box with soft biscuits, which took up more space than steamed buns.
When she walked out, the soldier subconsciously shrank back.
"Thank you very much."
"No, no need."
Feng Aoqing gave him a piece of silver, and the soldier hurriedly took it. He estimated that it was more than two taels, which was equivalent to his monthly salary.
She returned to the room where the Mo family was staying, closed the door tightly, and then began to distribute food.
After all, the people outside have been hungry for several days and are drinking porridge. Their food is much better.
Seeing that the two babies were so clean, Mo Nanzhou deliberately moved forward to tease them. The two babies were clean and full, and they laughed.
"Stay away! It's so hard to get clean for a while." Feng Aoqing smiled and handed him a piece of cake.
"Aoqing, is this given by Lord Han?" Others didn't dare to ask and just hurried to eat. Grandma spoke.
"Yes, grandma! But there is not enough bath water. I used three basins just to wash them. I'm sorry." Feng Aoqing pointed at the two babies and smiled.
"Oh, he is thoughtful and still thinks about us." Grandma nodded and started eating the cake in her hand.
Feng Aoqing walked over, picked up the plate of shredded potatoes and put some on Qin Lancui's pancake.
"Grandma, you love shredded potatoes with vinegar the most. I asked Xingbao and Yuebao not to touch them and saved them all for you!"
"You are good, Xingbao and Yuebao are also good." Qin Lancui smiled and ate happily.
Feng Aoqing asked everyone not to leave the room, but she didn't explain why.
I had just finished eating when someone came outside.
"What else are you giving?" Feng Aoqing walked out to see.
At the door was a man dressed as a servant, looking bossy.
Feng Aoqing couldn't help but frown.
"Is the second wife of the Mo family here?" the man asked.
Feng Aoqing pointed to the door next to her.
The second wife's family did not live with them, but found a shabby house with a door to live in separately.
This was the Fang family's place, so the remaining escorts thought it would be beneficial and allowed them to stay aside.
Although Mo Zhengqi's second son was removed from the family tree, he was reluctant to let him go, so he still took Qiao Yuegui and Mo Hongtao with him along the way, but he ignored Qiao Yuegui.
The man then went to knock on the door next door.
Before Feng Aoqing closed the door, she heard Fang Nianqiao crying next to her.
"My uncle is so thoughtful!" She cried so loudly, as if she was afraid that others would not know and wanted everyone around to come out and see.
The head of the Fang family is Fang Nianqiao's uncle. Although he did not come, he sent this person to deliver the gift.
Fang Nianqiao collected two bags and returned to the house. She wanted to show off without even closing the door, but Mo Zhengqi yelled at her, "Are you afraid others won't see you? Who are these people here? How many of them can you beat?"
When she heard this, she remembered that the people living around her were all refugees with nothing. As the saying goes, those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes. If a few desperate people come over, her husband and son cannot be trusted.
Mo Zhengqi almost threw Fang Nianqiao and her things into the house, and then closed the door.
The family then opened it and took a look.
One package contained cakes, which were as hard as the ones given by the bailiff, but you could tell they were made with better flour, and they were much whiter than the ones given by the bailiff.
One package contained clothes, one set for each person in the second room. Because they didn't know that Sun Lingzhu and Rui'er were no longer with them, they still prepared a set for each of them.
Among the clothes, there was a fifty-liang silver note, a handful of silver coins, and three jade bracelets of average quality, probably one each for Fang Nianqiao, Qiao Yuegui, and Sun Lingzhu.
"That's all!" Mo Hongyi was a little disappointed.
For the Fang family, the great master in the city, these things are probably more than what they usually give to beggars.
"What do you know!" Mo Zhengqi shouted.
"Isn't it? The Fang family is rich and powerful, how can they afford these things?" Mo Hongyi was very dissatisfied.
"There's not even a piece of meat." Mo Hongtao also joined in the fun, but because he hadn't eaten for a long time and was a little hungry, he picked up a piece of bread and ate it.
"Can you take away a mountain of gold if I give you one? Don't you see the current situation?" Mo Zhengqi looked at the people in the room who were not smart enough and shook his head.
"Although this bread is hard, it is filling and filling. If we eat it sparingly, we can have many meals. This clothing is better than coarse cloth, it is thicker, easier to wash and less likely to tear. And this silver is enough for us to reach Yanzhou. When we reach the place of exile, write to me again, and uncle will take care of us."
Mo Zhengqi explained it to them.
Fang Nianqiao and the others finally understood what was going on and hurriedly packed up their things.
"I saw the servant go to inquire about the situation over there. I believe my uncle has also helped to take care of it. Now life will finally be better." Mo Zhengqi said again.
"Qiao Yuegui... Hey, where is your mother?" Fang Nianqiao wanted to sort out the clothes, so she went to look for Qiao Yuegui, but found that she was not in the house.
