The seedlings provided by Han Luoxue will be ready for harvest in a little over a month, then everyone will have something to eat. After that, they can plant their original crops, and everything will be fine.
“I can provide them again. Brother Chen, there are actually quite a few seedlings in the space, but I'm worried that providing too many might have too much of an impact.”
This is too incredible. Although there was no warning from the space, Han Luoxue knew that some things could easily lead to trouble.
"Well, twice should be enough. It would be good to let everyone plant the same kind of crops in the future."
It's already quite an achievement to have gotten through this difficult time. Han Yuchen isn't a greedy person.
"Oh my, Xue'er, my cousin is so lucky to marry you. It's my honor to know you."
Zhou Jie chatted with a smile as they continued to stroll around. Although there were people chatting on the street, not many shops were open.
Economic recovery is not something that can be achieved in just a few days; it is estimated that it will not be fully restored until the end of the year.
This is normal; economic recovery is always the slowest. No matter what business you're in, what people care about most is having enough to eat.
How can we talk about becoming strong when we can't even fill our stomachs?
Once this first batch of produce matures, it will greatly alleviate everyone's food shortage problem.
By the time of the autumn harvest, grain prices will be much lower.
Can you believe that grain, which usually costs a few coins per kilogram, has suddenly increased in price to one tael of silver per kilogram?
I never dared to dream of it, but that's how it is.
In some places, even an ounce or two of silver cannot buy a pound of grain.
If Han Luoxue's food hadn't suddenly appeared, many more of them would have died.
"Dad, I'll work hard, please don't, please don't sell me, okay?"
The three people were strolling around when they suddenly heard a little girl's shrill scream.
"Father, please stop hitting me, please stop hitting me."
Hearing the shouts, Han Luoxue frowned in displeasure. How could someone beat a child in broad daylight?
She tugged at Han Yuchen's arm and hurriedly ran towards the sound, only to find that there were five or six people watching.
An older woman on the side advised:
"Hey, Pan Di's father, please stop hitting the child."
“That’s right. Pan Di does all the housework by herself. If you hurt her, who will do the housework in the future?”
"That's right. Look, this child is almost ten years old. If we raise him for another two years, he can get married. Don't you want a bride price then?"
Upon hearing the last sentence, the man who had been hitting the man finally put down the fire poker and angrily said:
"You useless thing, if you don't behave, I'll sell you."
"A good-for-nothing, can't even bring back a son."
The little girl was extremely small, and she was crying on the ground, holding her head in her hands.
Han Luoxue looked at the pitiful little girl; she hadn't understood what the others had said. But the little girl was indeed quite pitiful.
She stepped forward, walked to the little girl's side, and asked softly:
"Little girl, where are you hurt?"
She secretly took out the ointment. Perhaps because of her pregnancy, Han Luoxue couldn't bear to see children being aborted.
She thought of her own child; if one day her child were also beaten, she would break down.
"Waaah, it hurts, it hurts everywhere..."
Hearing the unfamiliar voice, the little girl finally looked up and saw Han Luoxue. She froze for a moment.
"Sister, are you a fairy who came to save me?"
Han Luoxue…this girl is too good at talking. But the child's face looks familiar; she seems to have seen him somewhere before.
"Take this box of ointment, you can apply it later."
"Hey, who are you?"
The man saw Han Luoxue and walked over unhappily, his eyes arrogant and unreasonable: "Are you pregnant?"
Han Luoxue was extremely beautiful; her appearance was very distinctive, even among women in the capital.
Although she is now pregnant, she is still slim. The only thing that is protruding is her specially made clothes, which are almost invisible unless you look closely.
Only by getting close and taking a close look can you tell that she is pregnant.
"Hmph, she's pregnant but doesn't hide at home, she's out in public. She's obviously not a good girl."
Upon hearing this, Han Luoxue's anger flared up instantly:
"That's ridiculous. What does it matter to you whether I'm pregnant or not, or whether I'm born or not? Did I eat at your house? Or am I your wife? Why are you meddling in other people's business?"
The man hadn't expected Han Luoxue to be so sharp-tongued; being spoken to like that in public made him lose face.
"You wretched woman, how dare you talk like that?"
"Meddling in other people's business? And what about you? I'm disciplining my daughter, what's it to you?"
Han Luoxue...
She only came to check on the child after hearing their screams, and that became her fault?
How ridiculous! Before she could say anything more, a figure stepped forward, blocking Han Luoxue's path, and said coldly:
"Apologize!"
The man was stunned and didn't react.
Seeing the slender Han Yuchen, he curled his lip in disdain:
"You weakling, you think you can play the hero and save the damsel in distress?"
As he spoke, he held up one finger and pointed in Han Yuchen's direction.
He was a local thug, and few people in town dared to talk back to him.
"ah……"
But as soon as he finished speaking, a sharp pain shot through his finger, causing him to cry out in pain.
Han Yuchen reached out and grabbed the outstretched finger. With a slight force, a snap was heard, and the finger pointing at Han Yuchen and the others was broken off by Han Yuchen.
The man screamed in pain, and Han Yuchen kindly let go of him.
"You...where did you come from? How dare you hit me?"
"So what if I hit you?"
Han Yuchen sneered, staring coldly at the man.
"Are you famous in town?"
They came here secretly to investigate, but they never expected to run into a famous person in town so soon after arriving.
This is really exceptionally good luck!
"I……"
The pain was excruciating; the man's face turned pale with agony, and he couldn't muster any of his usual arrogance.
His small eyes darted around, and eager to vent his anger, he saw his daughter's shocked expression. He stepped forward viciously and kicked the girl.
"ah……"
The girl was kicked in the stomach and felt pain. She curled up on the ground, clutching her stomach and rolling around.
Han Luoxue never expected that this man would harm his own daughter; this was too cruel.
Thinking about Han Mingyuan, I never knew fathers could be so ruthless.
"Little girl..."
Han Luoxue has no medical skills. She has seen Doctor Xu treat patients, but she has not learned from him.
Seeing the little girl in so much pain, she was extremely worried:
"Is there a doctor? Could you please call one over?"
Han Luoxue was not familiar with the town, so she could only ask for help from the onlookers.
Unfortunately, they just watched, but no one spoke up.
"I have money. I'll pay you if you call the doctor..."
