"What are you doing! Get back away! If you dare come any closer, I'll beat you!" She waved her fist threateningly.
Unfortunately, she was just a fair and tender-looking girl with small fists, which were not enough to intimidate. Instead of retreating, these people rushed over even more fanatically.
Xue Huan looked at these people calmly. When countless pairs of skinny and purple hands reached out to grab them, the spiritual energy in her body shook and pushed these people away.
Everyone fell to the ground, looking at her in shock, fear in their eyes.
I didn't expect that this beautiful woman who looked delicate and delicate was so powerful that she could lift them up without any effort.
Xue Huan's eyes swept over these people one by one. Each of them looked pitiful, but precisely because of their pity, evil grew in their hearts. If she and Ah Man were really two weak women who were powerless, and these people rushed over, one could imagine what her fate would be.
Having the silver, money, jewelry and clothes stolen from you is the worst that could happen. You might even be eaten by them.
In the end, Xue Huan did nothing. She just touched the eight-year-old girl's head, injected a stream of spiritual power into her body, and walked away.
It’s not that she doesn’t want to help them, but if she really gave them food or money here, they would have no chance of getting away.
Helping others also requires a proper method. She needs to first understand the situation here and then come up with a solution.
After turning the corner, Xue Huan found a pair of feet that were not completely buried in the snow.
She walked forward and pushed aside the snow, putting her fingers close to the man's nose. He was no longer breathing and there was no pulse in his neck. He was obviously dead.
There are frozen corpses on the road.
What once seemed so far away to her has become a reality.
"Ah Man, go buy a coffin and hire some men to help carry this man to the grave."
"Hey!" Ah Man ran away and came back soon, followed by a few people dressed in gray. The two leading people were carrying a coffin.
Xue Huan pointed at the man on the ground, "Here."
"Girl, who is this beggar to you?" one of the middle-aged men asked after putting down the coffin.
Xue Huan shook her head. "I don't know him. I just happened to meet him, so I helped him."
"Miss, you're a good person, but there are more than just him who froze to death in the city. How can we bury them all? In this weather, not to mention beggars, even those of us who run small businesses can't survive. Sigh."
Xue Huan was silent for a moment, "It will be fine. The imperial court is sending food and clothing here."
"real?"
"Um."
"Oh, that's great! It looks like we are saved." Several men showed joy on their faces.
After burying the beggar, Xue Huan returned to the inn with a heavy heart.
Pei Ji came back very late at night. Xue Huan was not asleep and was meditating on the bed. When she saw him come back, she quickly got up and walked over.
Pei Ji avoided her and said, "I feel cold, don't come over here yet."
Xue Huan didn't listen. She wrung out a hot towel and walked over to wipe his face. There was a layer of snow on his hair and shoulders. After he entered the house, the snow melted in the heating and soaked into his clothes.
"Take off your clothes quickly." She reached out to untie his belt.
Pei Ji's mood was originally as cold and gloomy as the weather outside, but seeing her like this, he felt surprisingly much better. He opened his arms and hugged her tightly.
Xue Huan patted his back.
Half an hour later, after taking a hot bath, putting on the clothes she handed him, and drinking two large bowls of hot meat porridge, Pei Ji felt refreshed both physically and mentally. He felt extremely comfortable, as if his heart was soaking in a warm hot spring.
The two sat together, and Pei Ji told Xue Huan what he had learned from the governor.
In Luzhou, heavy snow has been falling for ten consecutive days. Many houses in the city have been crushed and food is in short supply. At first, some wealthy families responded to the government's call to provide porridge and donate money. Later, as the heavy snow continued to fall for several days without stopping, all roads in and out of the city were blocked. Even if you have money, you can't buy food, so no one is willing to take out food.
The food in the government granary had run out two days ago. During these two days, countless people in the city had frozen to death or starved to death. Many families had begun selling their property and even their children.
Hearing this, Xue Huan thought of the scene during the day. "When I was out during the day, someone rushed over and wanted to sell his daughter to me for two taels of silver, but I didn't buy it."
Pei Ji stroked her shoulders and kissed her on the top of her head. "Hanhuan, you're right. Once this starts happening, others will come to you wanting to sell you people. Will you buy them then or not? It's better to prevent this kind of thing from happening right from the start than to worry about it later."
"Yeah, I think so too. Take a look at this." Xue Huan stopped talking about the topic of human trafficking and took out several drawings she had drawn.
She drew a diagram of how to build an igloo.
Now the roads are blocked by heavy snow, and things from outside cannot be transported in, and people inside cannot go out. However, many people have nowhere to shelter from the cold because their houses have collapsed. What people need most, besides food, is a house.
It just so happened that Shiquan City now had the most snow, and they could use local materials to build ice houses. Firstly, they could provide shelter for the homeless, secondly, they could clear the snow at the same time, and thirdly, building ice houses required manpower, so they could hire a large number of people to do the work and pay them wages.
At that time, she would take the opportunity to open a shop to sell grain, and sell the grain to them at a very low price, forming a virtuous circle.
In this way, even if we cannot completely solve this snow disaster, we can at least try our best to minimize the losses.
Xue Huan's drawings were very detailed. After reading them, Pei Ji understood the benefits of this kind of ice house. He couldn't help but feel excited. He happily picked her up and spun her around in the house several times, laughing out loud.
Xue Huan couldn't help but laugh when she heard his laughter.
"Okay, put me down now. You're making me dizzy."
Xue Huan patted his shoulder.
Pei Jiju hugged her, tilted his head back and kissed her hard on the face, "Hanhuan, thank you!"
Xue Huan blinked and couldn't help but say, "Just verbal thanks? You need something practical."
Pei Ji asked with a smile, "What does Huanhuan want?"
No matter what it is, as long as he can give it, he will never frown.
However, he was slapped in the face the next second.
Xue Huan leaned close to his ear and said, "I want you to pledge yourself to me." She emphasized the word "self".
In an instant, Pei Ji's blood boiled and flowed back into his brain, making his ears red, his brain dizzy, and almost unable to think.
Seeing the mischievous smile in her eyes, he immediately realized that she was teasing him!
"Okay." Pei Ji held her and strode to the bed, threw her on it, then covered her and kissed her deeply.
Now it was Xue Huan's turn to be confused. She had only been joking, and he was serious? He had always refused before, insisting on waiting until the wedding night, so why now—
"Hanhuan, you're not concentrating."
Pei Ji sucked her, and Xue Huan almost lost her soul.
