"You ate it all, and even took some with you. One shouldn't be too greedy."
The refugees remained motionless, and Mu Wanting's eyes turned cold.
"What, I'm feeding you and keeping you alive, and you still won't listen to me?"
It wasn't that she was being forceful, but with so many people here, if everyone had their own ideas and refused to be disciplined, things would become very difficult later on.
With so many people, one leader is enough.
“They took the food, and we might not have enough. They didn’t just take my food; they took everyone’s hope of survival.”
Once the interests of the masses were involved, the vagrants didn't say much and immediately threw the thieves out, not forgetting to close the door behind them.
Mu Wanting said, "The courtyard is for everyone. If you want to live more comfortably, please clean it yourselves. I will provide some bedding for the sick and weak."
The refugees' eyes lit up when they heard this. How could this young woman be so kind? Not only did she provide food and lodging, but she even gave them bedding.
Mu Wanting said, "Now, anyone who is sick, come to me and I'll take a look at you."
Everyone was taken aback again, their gratitude towards Mu Wanting increased from five points to eight points, and their respect for her also grew significantly.
If she were merely someone who provided food and shelter, she would be important, but not that important.
But she's still a doctor; she can save lives in critical moments.
Those who still harbored ulterior motives immediately stopped thinking about it. In this chaotic situation, having a doctor by your side is like having an extra life.
After being treated by Mu Wanting, the symptoms of those who were sick became milder, and those whose illnesses were not serious to begin with recovered quickly.
Seeing that everyone had finished cleaning and was looking at her expectantly, Mu Wanting immediately spoke up.
"Don't worry if the food runs out. As long as I'm in this house, I'll find a way."
"However, please do not spread the news that there is food here, otherwise we will not be able to distribute the food, and you will be the ones who go hungry."
The refugees nodded repeatedly, and even Ma Dazhuang admired Mu Wanting.
"You're the one who has a solution."
Mu Wanting smiled.
This method might really be something only she could do.
After all, not everyone has that much food.
The quilts that were found have been distributed, and although they still have a musty smell, they are much better now.
Mu Wanting led the three families to her house, where they discovered that in addition to the front yard, there was also a back yard, which was hidden in the woods.
They had clean bedding in their cart, much better than the bedding that had been sitting out for so long. They all fell asleep.
The grain supplies were being guarded by officials, and they had managed to get a good night's sleep these past two days while traveling.
The next day, Mu Wanting and the others first had breakfast in the kitchen in the backyard.
He then decided to lead everyone up the mountain.
There is actually a hidden entrance on this mountain, and behind it is a poisonous mountain, which was also the source of materials for my mother to raise Gu poison. So no matter how hungry everyone was, they dared not go up there.
Mu Wanting led Shen Xinglan, Shen Yujiao, Shen Xingyi, and Shen Xinghe upstairs.
It wasn't until they reached the top that they discovered there were many mushrooms. Shen Yujiao didn't know anything about mushrooms, so she picked them as soon as she saw them, which made Mu Wanting want to laugh.
"Do you believe it? If you eat this mushroom, you won't see the sun tomorrow."
Shen Yujiao immediately threw away the mushroom.
Mu Wanting couldn't help but want to laugh.
"There's no need to be so afraid."
Along the way, they picked many fresh mushrooms and wild vegetables. Mu Wanting suddenly had a whimsical idea and planted some delicious mushrooms in the soil of her space to see if they would grow.
When it was almost lunchtime, I took the wild game I had gathered back to the backyard, intending to use it for dinner.
They distributed porridge here for several days in a row, and the cohesion among this group was stronger than ever before.
Ma Dazhuang was also quite anxious. They couldn't stay here forever. After discussing it with Mu Wanting, they decided to set off tomorrow.
Mu Wanting was responsible for persuading these convicts, since more than two thousand convicts constituted a considerable force.
It takes so many people to protect the food and ensure their safety along the way, since quite a few criminal organizations have become powerful.
Murong Rong watched from inside the courtyard as Mu Wanting subdued these refugees, and she was so angry that her teeth itched.
Why was I captured by refugees in my past life, robbed of my food, and nearly lose my virginity? None of those refugees were good people.
But when it came to Mu Wanting, she completely won over the refugees, making them so obedient that it aroused envy.
Although she produced so much grain, experience told her that it was worth it.
After all, the further you go on this road, the more terrifying it becomes.
On the last night, Mu Wanting entered the space and found that all the plots of land were covered with mushrooms, visible to the naked eye.
She was speechless. She immediately used her mind to harvest the mushrooms and then carried them out in a basket.
The female refugees who were cooking stared wide-eyed when they saw it.
"So many."
Mu Wanting said, "This should be enough for everyone to have a good meal. Please make sure it's thoroughly cooked."
At the same time, she also brought out several baskets of wild vegetables and told them to cook them properly.
Shen Yujiao was still there, holding a whip and supervising from the side.
The food was better tonight, which naturally pleased the female refugees, even though there were more things to do.
The refugees were overjoyed and had even greater faith in Mu Wanting.
Mu Wanting said, "We have been delayed here for a long time, and our food is almost gone. We will set off tomorrow to continue our exile. The road is rugged and difficult to travel, so we will have to say goodbye then."
"If you wish to live in this house, then you may. This is my house, but please take good care of it. As long as I don't kick you out, you all have the right to use it."
Hearing this, the refugees felt a pang of sadness. They had been truly grateful to Mu Wanting these past few days, but now that she was in exile, they couldn't possibly let her stay and feed them without any regard for their well-being.
A woman asked in a soft voice, "Can we follow you for a while? My child and I finally get a decent meal."
Mu Wanting looked at her. Women and children would be the first to fall if they fled the famine.
Mu Wanting nodded: "As long as you don't mind the long and difficult journey, of course you can."
The woman was moved to tears.
"How could that be? We are all very grateful to have you by our side."
The other refugees were delighted. Some of the more astute refugees, seeing that there was little food left, decided to continue following Mu Wanting.
They believed that Mu Wanting had a solution.
So on the first day of their journey, four-fifths of the refugees followed, while the rest did not, choosing to stay in the house.
But all the remaining food in the house was loaded onto carts, leaving them with only half a bag of grain.
With so many people sharing half a bag of grain, it was quickly eaten up.
After they finished eating, they began to regret not going with Mu Wanting and the others.
