The afternoon trip went smoothly. After dinner, Gu Xinran decided to do something big.
Now it is dozens of miles away from the city. The Sun family can give away some of the clothes and quilts they have collected, but forget about the silk and satin clothes.
Some more food and vegetables were sent out, and the space was filled with radishes, cabbages, pumpkins, etc.
What’s a bit annoying is that the space is full of fine grains, which are not suitable to be sent out. What should I do?
Gu Xinran climbed onto the carriage, changed a few bags of black flour, and then mixed the black flour and white flour together. The effect was good, not eye-catching but nutritious.
Wait until the next batch of rice and wheat matures, grind them into powder with the shells on, and make a powder that is better than whole grains but less conspicuous.
The dozens of poor refugees at noon were her rescue targets.
Tonight, the people of Qingshan Village rested in a small wood by the roadside. Many teams coming out of the provincial capital rested here, as this place was the most spacious around.
Her target was also resting here, about fifty meters away from the camp in Qingshan Village.
Everyone is still awake at this time, so it's not the right time to commit a crime. Oh, this is a good time to do something good. Let's plan ahead and take action in the middle of the night.
Oh, why does it feel like I'm going to do something bad?
On a dark and windy night, it’s time to help others!
After everyone fell asleep, Gu Xinran gently climbed down from the mule cart.
It happened to be Brother Gu's turn to keep watch tonight. When she saw her sister get off the car, she hurried over and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"
Gu Xinran whispered, "It's okay, my stomach feels uncomfortable, I'll go to the bathroom."
Brother Gu was worried about the situation in this desolate place, so he insisted on staying with us and guarding us from a distance.
What a sweet burden!
Gu Xinran came behind a large mound not far from the target and pretended to go to the bathroom.
After avoiding Brother Gu's sight, he tiptoed towards his destination.
I didn’t expect that even though they were poor, they still had four night watchmen.
Several people wrapped in tattered quilts stood by the campfire, adding firewood from time to time, and the fire burned very vigorously.
The firelight illuminated their faces, with sunken cheeks and protruding cheekbones, which showed that they must be very thin.
They are both fathers and sons, and the burden of life weighs heavily on them. They must be helpless when faced with such a disaster year.
Hero Ran will come to save you from danger tonight!
Behind a pile of thorns about ten meters away from them, she secretly put down a large pile of bedding and cotton clothes, a pile of pumpkins, cabbages and radishes, and six hundred kilograms of black and white mixed flour.
Then he moved forward a few meters, aimed at them, and threw a ball of paper that he had prepared earlier, which had a simple picture of clothes, pumpkins, wheat and a crossed-out mouth drawn on it, and then quickly retreated to a safe distance.
Gu Xinran saw them picking up the paper balls, looked at them with surprise, and walked towards the pile of supplies.
When they saw what was on the ground, their faces were filled with surprise, tears welled up in their eyes, and they knelt down and bowed three times in each of the four directions.
After expressing their gratitude, one person stayed on guard while the other three carried the flour and quietly returned to the camp.
He quietly woke up the young and middle-aged villagers and moved all the things into the largest tent in a short while.
Unexpectedly, they had good organization and discipline, and didn't make any loud noise.
Other homeless people who were dozens of meters away would occasionally hear a little noise and would just think that someone was getting up to go to the bathroom.
Seeing that nothing went wrong, Gu Xinran withdrew.
The whole process took about a quarter of an hour, and Brother Gu could no longer wait.
He was calling her name softly.
Gu Xinran hurriedly walked towards her eldest brother. Seeing that he was so anxious, she wondered whether she could take her eldest brother with her to do it in the future.
Brother Gu was relieved to see that she was fine and prepared to go back.
Gu Xinran took a quick look around and saw that there was no one around, so she asked her brother to wait.
He conjured up a bucket of clean water from the space and called his elder brother to wash hands together, intending to give him a snack to make up for it.
This person is too conscientious. It’s not good. It hurts when he deceives others!
Every time Gu Yuchen saw her take something out of thin air, he found it magical.
I thought to myself, could Ranran really be a deity who has descended to earth? I can't support the family on my own, so luckily I have such a capable sister.
After washing their hands, the two hid behind a big tree. Gu Xinran took out half a hot roast chicken and two boiled eggs as a midnight snack for her eldest brother.
Brother Gu is almost sixteen years old. He is in the growth stage. He will be hungry soon after eating. It is difficult to raise this young boy.
I have to be on duty at night, patrol, and fight the cold, which is very tiring and I'm already hungry.
When they saw the food, their eyes widened and they ate it with relish. They were in a great mood and before the aroma could reach the crowd, half the chicken was already in their stomach.
In the past, when Ranran gave him food, he always wanted to keep it to share with his family. Later, he found that she had a lot of food and the whole family could eat it.
Now whenever Ranran gives him food, he enjoys it with peace of mind.
Gu Xinran stood beside him, chewing the pear, and accompanied him until he finished eating. The two of them returned to the camp contentedly.
After reading about the incident with Mr. Wang's tent, he secretly took out ten pounds of fine rice and a piece of drawing paper with a cross on its mouth and stuffed it in.
Xiao Wuya is weak and needs to continue eating some fine grains. The five pounds of white flour I gave her last time have been eaten up for several days and she may have finished it.
Brother Gu didn't say a word when he saw her delivering the food. He just smiled at her and covered for her.
Gu Xinran secretly praised him in his heart, not bad, not bad, next time when doing something big, he would ask him to help.
Having done a good deed, Gu Xinran felt very accomplished. He got into the carriage and fell into a sound sleep. In his dreams, he was climbing walls and robbing the rich to help the poor.
The next morning, she was awakened by loud crying. She had helped others in the middle of the night and had missed her sleep and woke up late.
She was the only one in the carriage now. She put on her clothes, wrapped herself tightly, and walked towards the crowd.
When he looked up, he saw that the small tent of Zheng Bo's family was surrounded by people. Zheng Wen and Zheng Wu were squatting on the ground, holding their heads and crying.
Gu Xinran squeezed in and saw Doctor Guo with a worried look on his face. He waved his hands helplessly, "Her previous weakness has never been completely cured, and now the cold has entered her body. I can't do anything. I can't cure her."
With red eyes, Zheng Bo looked at his daughter-in-law who had suffered poverty and hardship with him all her life, and shed tears silently, begging Doctor Guo to think of another solution.
Doctor Guo looked at the sad family and felt sad. He said, "If we can find some good ginseng and antler pills, there is still a glimmer of hope."
Where can I find such a good medicine at this point? It's better to just say there's no hope.
The villagers who had a better relationship with Aunt Zheng also began to wipe away their tears, and the atmosphere was very depressing.
Gu Xinran was afraid of seeing people cry, especially a strong man crying, because those tears were like hitting her heart.
I didn’t expect that my heart, which was frozen in the end times, would be melted by the Gu family in less than half a year.
Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. During these days of getting along, I found that the Zheng family are all kind-hearted villagers.
She took out a small porcelain bottle from her sleeve pocket, took out two homemade ginseng and antler pills, and handed them to the helpless Dr. Guo.
"I have two here, given by a nobleman. Do you think they are okay?"
Doctor Guo took the pill excitedly, smelled it carefully, and looked surprised.
"Ran girl, this is a top-grade ginseng and antler pill. The ginseng in it is at least a hundred years old. This medicine is hard to come by!"
