After seeing where those people had gone, Lin Zao stopped paying attention to them.
She got into the carriage with several children, intending to wait until they left before getting off, as she was still worried about the refugees.
After all, people will betray even their own family for survival, let alone strangers.
Although they were some distance from the refugees, Sun Ding and his men, along with several guards from the Prince's residence, kept a wary eye on them, guarding against any malicious intent.
Seeing that some people in the group were pointing and looking at them, Sun Ding's face turned cold.
They wouldn't hesitate to make an example of anyone who dared to even think of robbery.
Before long, the group started walking towards the city entrance, and Sun Ding and his men finally relaxed.
Lin Zao also brought her three children downstairs.
Although the sun was blazing, the wind was unusually strong today, making it perfect for flying kites.
Tiger Head and Ya Ya had never flown a kite before and didn't know how to fly one.
Seeing this, Xiao Bao took the kite and ran against the wind, dragging it along.
"It's flying! The kite is soaring!"
"Wow, Brother Xiaobao is so amazing!"
Tiger Head and Ya Ya were amazed to see the kite slowly rise into the sky. It was an eagle-shaped kite, and from a distance, it really looked like an eagle flying in the sky.
After the kite successfully took flight, Xiaobao pulled Hutou and Yaya along and taught them how to fly it so that it would stay in the sky.
After they tried it once, they quickly mastered the technique and placed the objects quite skillfully.
Listening to the children's laughter, Lin Zao leaned against the carriage, looking at the mountains and forests on the other side of the river, enjoying the breeze and the leisurely time.
Unfortunately, the river has dried up, and most of the grass on the ground has withered and died. Only the opposite mountain is still green.
I wonder what has become of the other prefectures outside Ganzhou.
Those refugees looked numb and emaciated; it was hard to imagine what the situation was like outside.
The people who suffer the most are always the farmers and ordinary people at the bottom of society.
Now that groundwater has been found in Ganzhou, water supply shouldn't be a problem. Once this news gets out, more and more people will definitely flock here.
With a large number of refugees, the management becomes more difficult, and mishandling can easily lead to riots.
These are truly turbulent times.
"Uncle Sun, where's my chess set? I want to play chess with Brother Xiaobao."
Tiger Head's voice pulled Lin Zao back to reality.
Turning to look at the children, I found that only Ya Ya was still flying a kite, while Hu Tou and Xiao Bao had already gotten their chess pieces and were sitting on the ground preparing to play. They had clearly lost interest in the kite.
This chess set was a birthday gift she gave to Hu Tou. After he learned how to play it, he often brought it to the palace to play with Xiao Bao.
Seeing that Ya Ya was flying a kite alone and looking a little bored, Lin Zao went over to keep her company.
While flying a kite, I talked to Ya Ya about how the wind is formed, sharing some basic knowledge.
The little girl listened with great interest, and even Xiao Bao and Hu Tou couldn't help but turn their heads to look at them from time to time.
The sun was getting hotter and hotter, and seeing the children sweating profusely, Lin Zao decided to take them back.
This weather is really not suitable for going out and having fun.
The corn and potatoes on the farm will be ready for harvest soon. We can take them there to experience the joy of a bountiful harvest.
The group boarded the carriage and began their journey back.
"Whoa!"
The carriage stopped, and Sun Ding's voice came:
"Madam, someone is blocking the road ahead! It must be those refugees from earlier!"
