After hearing this explanation, everyone felt a little better.
The young master of the Wang family stepped forward and bowed. "Excuse me, sir, is there any drought in Shangjing?"
The guard frowned, his face showing obvious displeasure: "Even if there is, so what? Under the imperial city, will they let us starve and thirst?"
Think about it, everyone.
Where the emperor lives, no matter what problems there are, they can be solved immediately. So many officials and dignitaries, which one does not store food or water?
But they are not going to Beijing. According to Gao Hongbin's instructions, they just need to send the things to Yingtian Prefecture and then they don't have to worry about anything. But does Yingtian Prefecture have water and food?
There should be, after all, it’s not far from Beijing!
After much thought, Jiangnan is still the best place, a land of fish and rice.
I hope I can go back again in my lifetime.
The guard left after delivering the message. As the sky darkened, those who had gone out to find water returned with heavy steps.
Everyone asked expectantly, "Did you find it?"
What I got was a depressed expression and sighs.
For a moment, everyone was silent.
It was not until Gao Hongbin sent someone to deliver half a bucket of water that the scene became a little lively.
"I didn't expect that Mr. Gao is so kind that he is willing to share water with us!" Ling Jiran, the only girl of the Ling family's grandchildren, said with a smile.
Chi Xingyue shuddered: "Little sister, you can't be one-sided when looking at people and things. Especially, you can't think that someone is good just because he gives you a bite to eat!"
"Why not, every night..."
Before he could finish his words, Ling Jiyi covered his mouth.
The old lady glared at Geng Suhua with dismay: "You only think about that little bit of family property all day long. Look at what you have raised your daughter to be. She has no idea what's going on and is not even as good as Xingyue."
Chi Xingyue was really something, she was shot even when she was lying down. So what if she was originally a fire-making girl? Should a fire-making girl be inferior to a lady from a wealthy family?
Well, you know what, in ancient society, slaves were no match for the common people. Even if you were proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, you still didn't have the same social status as an ordinary person.
What's more, the original body really didn't know how to do anything except light a fire. After working in the kitchen for so many years, he still didn't make a name for himself.
Seeing Ling Jiran's disapproving expression, Ling Jiyi whispered in her ear, "Master Gao is just worried that we'll die on the road and no one will escort us. He's not a kind person!"
Chi Xingyue nodded hurriedly, thinking to herself, if someone is truly kind, would he arbitrarily change their exile route, whip the old, weak, sick and pregnant people who walk slowly, treat them as toys, and watch them snatch horse blood?
So, he has a black heart.
It was because Chi Xingyue had seen the perverted desires hidden deep in Gao Hongbin's heart that she did not dare to clean herself up so cleanly and hide herself in the crowd like a quail.
It was unclear whether Ling Jiran listened to the advice or not. It was getting late, so Chi Xingyue found a relatively flat stone and leaned against it. Hiss, it was so hot!
Ling Jiheng came over, put her head on his shoulder, and whispered, "Thank you!"
The voice was full of gratitude.
Chi Xingyue closed her eyes, hummed, rubbed his neck, found a comfortable position, and fell into a deep sleep.
In the middle of the night, the moon hung high on the branches, and all around was quiet, with only the sound of insects chirping.
Chi Xingyue woke up from her sleep and gently pulled Ling Jiheng's sleeve.
Ling Jiheng woke up with a start and asked in a low voice: "Do you want to go to the bathroom?"
"Hmm!" Chi Xingyue's voice was very soft, not sure if anyone noticed.
The two of them were far away from the temporary base before Chi Xingyue entered the space under the cover of Ling Jiheng.
I don't know what's going on in this space, but there's no water or electricity, but the sewers are working. Maybe it's related to its self-purification ability?
Chi Xingyue didn't care about anything else. After washing up in the bathroom, she changed into clean underwear.
I looked up at myself in the mirror. Hmm, my body was skinny and my face was dark.
She had grown a bit taller, but only a little bit. At first glance, she was still the same undeveloped little girl.
Chi Xingyue was quite grateful for this.
Not growing means she can still grow taller, and her breasts can still be rounder. More importantly, she won't have her period to bother her.
After showing off for a while, he came to the gate of the village committee with wet hair.
The more than 300 acres of land in front of me looks quite shocking, but unfortunately only grapes and cherries are refreshed.
But it doesn't matter. If she walks for a few more days, she will definitely find other fruits.
Use your consciousness to pick the ripe grapes and put them in the restaurant.
Then she lined up the furniture she and Ling Jiheng had looted, placed the ripe grapes on them, and let them dry naturally.
After finishing all this, I collected the chicken, duck and goose eggs together and prepared to make salted eggs later.
And the cows, milk them clean, and then...
Well, let’s not do that. She is in the prime of growth now, and it would be unreasonable for her not to drink milk.
She didn't have the conditions before, but now, Ling Jiheng already knows that she can report to the fairyland, so she should overcome the difficulties and make up for herself!
Chi Xingyue found a shovel from the farm tools he had stored and dug a hole in the empty land.
Then he picked up some dead branches and leaves from the vineyard, threw them into the pit, and lit it with a lighter.
Finally, throw in the stored charcoal before the leaves are completely burned.
When they were red hot, Chi Xingyue took out a pot and squatted over it, filling it with freshly baked milk.
Simmer over low heat until it cools down and you can drink it.
After finishing, Chi Xingyue did not stay there, but went back to the office, ate two buns, drank a bowl of millet stewed with sea bass, and then left the space wearing clothes that emitted a sour smell.
As soon as she left the space, Ling Jiheng noticed her. He walked over slowly and took Chi Xingyue away without asking her why she had been gone for so long.
Chi Xingyue wanted to say something, but was stopped by Ling Jiheng.
The two came back empty-handed, which really scared the Ling family who were still dreaming.
I couldn't help but look into the darkness in panic. Could it be that the kind-hearted person would not come?
That’s right, because of Ling Jiran’s careless words, kind-hearted people got angry tonight.
After listening to the reports from Ling Yi and Hong Yu, Ling Jiheng just took a steamed bun to fill his stomach and sent the two away.
In order to alert the Ling family, he didn't even take care of his own parents and grandparents. He has a tough heart, but at the same time, he is also a bit cold-blooded and heartless.
But for safety, he had to do this, even if...
Ling Jiheng closed his eyes and thought that with the little fairy around, no one in the Ling family would die, and at most they would suffer some hardships.
The two sat down again. Chi Xingyue closed her eyes and waited for the pot of raw milk to boil, cool down, and be poured into the water bag before she lay on Ling Jiheng's legs and fell asleep heartlessly.
Others were so dizzy from hunger that they couldn't believe it for a long time.
Until dawn, some of the slow-witted people still couldn't figure out why the kind-hearted people cut off their food rations.
However, before they could communicate, someone screamed, "Ah, someone's dead!"
