Chapter 149 I'm a fool! I have food! Come and take it from me
!
Since ancient times, people have not fought against officials. When they see officials, even if they have not committed any mistakes, they have an instinctive fear in their hearts.
Therefore, even though they were jealous of the food, they still did not dare to do anything rash because Shu Mingyuan and the other officers were wearing official uniforms.
When Shu Mingyuan and his companions saw a group of disaster victims, they felt nervous. They had originally wanted to take a rest by the river, but now it seemed that they had to leave here as soon as possible.
After the last experience of being ambushed by refugees, Shu Mingyuan and his friends felt their scalps go numb when they saw so many victims.
"Hurry up! We're talking to you!" The officers immediately urged the team not to stop and to get ready to leave the river quickly.
Unfortunately, the weather was not good.
Suddenly, a muffled thunder sounded in the sky, which had just been clear. Soon, the trees in the low-lying area at the foot of the mountain rustled in the wind.
This is the rhythm of rain.
In the past, when their exile team consisted of so many people, the small woods behind the low-lying area at the foot of the mountain would be their best place to hide from the rain.
Shu Mingyuan looked at the sky which was beginning to darken, and then looked at the disaster victims whose faces were becoming even more devastated. He frowned tightly and was in a dilemma for a moment.
Of course, they didn't care about the exiles' lives in private. They had traveled in heavy rain before, got wet, caught colds, and had fevers. Those people could endure it if they could, but it was not uncommon for them to die of illness on the road.
However, this time they have Prince Xiao, who they cannot offend easily, and Prince Xiao has just woken up not long ago, so they naturally have to take good care of Prince Xiao and his subordinates.
Su Rongyan saw a group of ragged, pale, and skinny disaster victims, as well as many frail women and children. In order to leave a good impression of kindness, compassion, and sympathy on Prince Xiao's side, she turned around, took out some dry food from her carriage, and waved to a child who was looking at her, "Child, come here, come to me, I'll give you some buns."
As soon as these words came out, it was like a drop of water falling into a boiling oil pan and exploded instantly.
When the victims saw the buns in her hand, they rushed over like a cat finding a rat's nest, their eyes filled with greed and shamelessness, and they swarmed over to grab the buns.
Both the nanny and the rickshaw driver, Lao Liu, were furious at this foolish woman, Su Rongyan. Did she even have the slightest idea of how to save her life? There were so many disaster victims, and if you offered them food, wouldn't that be like telling them: "I'm a fool! I have food! Come and take it from me!"
The two men tried frantically to stop the victims, but there were only two of them. Even if they had martial arts skills, how could they stop the hungry victims?
Soon, the group of victims rushed frantically towards the window of the carriage where Su Rongyan was. Some of them couldn't get in, so they began to climb onto the roof.
If the nanny and the coachman Lao Liu had not been guarding the door, Su Rongyan, who was sitting inside, would have been thrown out by a group of mad victims.
But at this moment, Su Rongyan's smile froze on her face. She was already frightened by the chaos in front of her. She... she just wanted to use a few buns to put on a show and establish the image of the kind-hearted second lady of the Su family. How did she suddenly become like this?
"Miss Su Er, please get out of the carriage and come with us." The nanny and the coachman Lao Liu tried to stop her for a long time. Finally, the panting nanny spoke with difficulty and pulled Su Rongyan out of the carriage.
