Chapter 150 Gold mine?

A little boy who looked only two or three years old stared at the thing in Yuan Baobao's hand with his eyes, swallowing saliva.

The woman hugged the child: "Be good, drink the porridge later."

"Mom, what is that? It looks delicious."

The child wanted to continue looking, but the woman held him in her arms.

She had just heard the identity of the little girl.

The little princess was not someone that ordinary people like them could afford to offend.

She was born rich and pampered. Her father took her with him wherever he went. She didn't seem like his own child...

"I'm hungry..."

Hearing the little boy's voice, Yuan Baobao lost his appetite.

Oh, she should have been more patient.

But she was also very hungry. After eating a few mouthfuls, Yuan Baobao ran to the stove that had just been built and looked at the red flames.

"Uncle, it's so warm here."

Niu Er smiled flatteringly:

"Little princess, this is a firewood stove, the simplest one, and it was built just for making porridge temporarily."

"Little princess, are you still hungry? What will you eat later?"

He was still a little curious, wondering if the prince would prepare a meal specifically for the little princess!

"Drink porridge."

Yuan Baobao grinned.

[My mother didn't prepare much for me, and I will eat the same thing as them later. ]

[Isn't it just porridge? I was hungry before. ]

[But that was a long time ago. ]

[I don't know how my mother is doing now? 】

Yuan Baobao missed his mother. This was the first time they had been separated for such a long time.

After the water boiled, someone brought food.

Smelling the rich aroma of rice in the air, many people couldn't help swallowing their saliva.

It tasted so good. It had been several days since they smelled such a fragrant smell.

This was all top-quality rice.

They were reluctant to eat it before, but it was the food that the prefect usually ate.

"Can we really drink porridge today?"

An old lady couldn't believe it. She touched her cheeks, which had only bones left, and couldn't help but shed tears.

"Hello, Prince. Fortunately, Prince is here."

Another old man also cried.

"Don't we have to wait to starve to death?"

"Wuwuwu, finally we don't have to die."

Looking at their excited looks, Yuan Baobao felt bitter in his heart.

Those officials are damnable. For their own benefit, they don't care about the lives of the people.

"Don't worry, there will be a lot of food delivered later."

"The emperor will not ignore you."

Yuan Baobao promised seriously.

He was just a little kid, and his words were still intermittent, but they believed him inexplicably.

"Long live the emperor, the prince..."

"My father, Prince Yi."

The little girl reminded them that there are more princes than just my father now, and they must not let them thank the wrong person.

"Yes, it's Prince Yi, long live Prince Yi."

When watching TV before, Yuan Baobao thought it was funny to hear people shouting like this, but it was embarrassing.

Very embarrassing.

But now, there are obviously not many people below, and the voices are not loud because of hunger, and weak, but when she really heard it, she still felt...

shocked.

Thinking of the emperor's high and mighty appearance, and the ministers below shouting with admiration, Yuan Baobao suddenly understood the thoughts of the superiors.

Perhaps, he is really fascinated, and a man cannot resist the temptation of that position.

"The pot is boiling."

Yuan Baobao kindly reminded, and everyone hurried to check the firewood.

It's not easy to have something to eat, and food is precious, and not a bit can be wasted.

Yuan Baobao couldn't see into the pot, she was still small.

Just playing in front of the stove, she also saw the stone used to make the stove.

Because it was set up temporarily, the outside was not smoothed with yellow mud.

Many stones were exposed.

Yuan Baobao looked at them curiously and did not forget to touch them.

The color of the stone is wrong.

It seems that...

Yuan Baobao was surprised and found that there was only one stone of this kind on the stove.

She stood up and ran to another place.

After looking at all the nearby stoves, she actually found five or six dark brown stones.

"Little princess, most of these stones are brought down from the mountains. Generally, the best ones are large bluestones, but some other stones are also very hard, and sometimes, some are brought down."

"By the way, we used to have a river here. There would be floods in summer, and sometimes white stones would be washed down very quickly?"

"White stones?"

Yuan Baobao blinked, obviously very interested.

"Yes, I have that kind of white stone at home, and some are even transparent?"

"Little princess, I'll find it for you later."

The thing is not worth much, but it looks very beautiful.

Yuan Baobao nodded obediently, she was also very curious now.

"There are other colors, they have them at home."

The man said again, and Yuan Baobao became more interested.

"Wow, the porridge is ready, little princess, do you want to eat some?"

The man asked, the strong aroma of porridge could be smelled at the tip of her nose.

"Yes."

Yuan Baobao licked her lips. She had never eaten anything like this before.

Everything she ate here was carefully prepared.

"Then I'll find you a bowl."

[This uncle is good.]

[Very enthusiastic and very discerning.]

[You can recommend him to daddy in the future. Even if he works at the mansion ,

it's fine.] [There aren't many people who can see things.]

Niu Er felt even more proud when he heard this.

He almost starved to death during the disaster, and he just wanted to try to find something to eat outside the county government.

He didn't expect the little princess to think so highly of him.

Work at the mansion?

The prince's mansion?

Niu Er suddenly felt that he had hit the jackpot.

Working in the palace is more impressive than being a county magistrate here.

He walked more vigorously.

He found the cleanest and most beautiful bowl and filled half a bowl for the little princess.

It was the first spoonful.

When everyone heard that it was for the little princess to drink, they had no objection.

They all knew that if the little princess hadn't come over, they would still be hungry now.

"Little princess, eat slowly."

"Don't get burned."

Niu Er was still a little worried. Would the little princess be able to eat by herself with such a small child?

Children from their poor families don't need to be fed, but... the little princess's status is different, so it's hard to say.

"Okay." The little girl lowered her head and smelled it. It was really delicious.

Niu Er was relieved.

"Baby."

Prince Yi had arranged everything, but he was still worried and walked over.

He was stunned when he saw the big bowl in Yuan Baobao's hand.

"You..." His daughter also drinks porridge?

"Daddy, it's delicious."

The little girl drank it with a smile on her face.

She didn't forget to pick up the bowl: "Try it?"

Prince Yi was stunned for a moment, but still raised his hand to take it.

Liu Quan had already rushed over, holding a big bowl in his hand. He wanted to pass it to Prince Yi, but found that he already had it.

"Grandpa, they have all gone down. Open the warehouse first and put the grain in so that everyone can fill their stomachs."

"As for those local officials, we have to investigate slowly."
