Chapter 105 Turmoil in the County (Part 3)
After finishing her meal, Lu Xiaoxiao planned to go back to the ox cart, but as soon as she left the state-owned hotel, she saw a dozen people kneeling with their hands and feet tied on a platform not far away.
There were old people and children among the dozen people, all of whom had scars on their bodies. A man on a high platform was talking about the crimes of the dozen people kneeling on the ground, saying that they had stolen the factory's property, so now let everyone see the consequences of stealing factory property.
Seeing this, Lu Xiaoxiao couldn't bear it and turned her head away, not daring to look at the platform again.
Time passed minute by minute, and just after Lu Xiaoxiao felt like a century had passed, she saw the people surrounding the platform disperse, leaving only a dozen people on the stage who were beaten and covered in wounds.
She looked at the dozen people who were beaten on the platform. After the onlookers left, they supported each other and walked down the platform. Her nose was sore when she saw their limping backs.
Lu Xiaoxiao knew that it was best to leave at this moment, but she couldn't move her feet. She felt that if she left like this today, she would feel guilty for the rest of her life.
As she watched the dozen people walking towards an alley, she followed them from a distance. The reason she followed them from a distance was that she wanted to find an opportunity to secretly give them some medicine for their injuries and food.
Lu Xiaoxiao followed the dozen people for a long time. Just when she thought they were going to the suburbs, she finally saw them walk into the dilapidated house next to the public toilet.
Ten minutes after they went in, she pretended to pass by their house, and when no one was around, she threw the prepared package into the house through a big hole in the wall at the back of the house. After throwing the things, she immediately ran into an alley.
When the people in the house heard the noise, they saw a large package fall on the floor. A young man in the house endured the pain and ran to the back of the house. When he didn't see anyone, he returned to the house.
After returning to the house, the man shook his head at the people in the house, indicating that there was no one outside.
At this time, an old man in the room asked the man to close the door, and then he opened the package.
Everyone in the room gasped after the package was opened, because they saw that inside the package were twenty steamed buns made of 30g of flour, a bag of fruit candies, two bottles of medicine for bruises and sprains, and a packet of anti-inflammatory medicine.
The old man was the calmest of all the people in the room. After being surprised, he asked everyone to share the steamed buns first and then started to treat the wounds. He put the candies in the package where he usually hid food.
After he finished everything, the old man asked everyone in the room to sit next to him, and then he said: "No one can tell anyone about what happened today, just pretend that it never happened. You must remember that there are still good people in this world, and as long as you keep your heart, you will get through all the difficulties."
After hearing what the old man said, everyone in the room nodded and went to rest.
Besides, after Lu Xiaoxiao threw the package, she ran into the alley. She was afraid that someone would chase her, so she entered the space. She sat on the sofa and wondered if the medicine she prepared for those people was enough. However, she could only help them this much. If she helped more, she was afraid that it would bring trouble to herself.
The medicines that Lu Xiaoxiao gave to those people today were all scarce items, hard to buy in this era, and she bought them when she was preparing supplies before her rebirth, but she had erased all the information on the medicines before giving them to them.
After Lu Xiaoxiao stayed in the space for half an hour, she saw that it was already one o'clock in the afternoon, so she hurried out of the space and headed towards the ox cart.
When she arrived at the place where the ox cart was parked, she saw that everyone had arrived, so she quickly climbed onto the cart and sat down.
When Uncle Liu saw that Lu Xiaoxiao was already sitting on the ox cart, he drove the cart back to the village.
On the way, Uncle Liu asked her why she came back so late and whether something had happened to her.
Lu Xiaoxiao was touched by Uncle Liu's caring words, so she replied to him, "Nothing happened. I just wasted time looking for books at the scrap yard."
Uncle Liu nodded after hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, and then he didn't say anything else, but continued to drive the ox cart attentively.
