Chapter 143 (1/2)
Seeing this, Yang Zijin could not help but feel pity. Then he opened the curtain and said to the coachman driving the carriage, ”first stop.”
”What happened to the princess? But what's the matter? ” At this time the coachman stopped the car and turned to ask Yang Zijin.
Yang Zijin turns over the package, takes out the cake prepared by shuoling and her, and then takes up the water pot.
He jumped out of the carriage and walked to the woman.
When the woman saw someone coming to her, she quickly reported the children in her hand to prevent Yang Zijin.
After all, some traffickers take advantage of people's danger, and there are not a few who steal and sell their children.
Yang Zijin can see it in the woman's eyes.
Then she went to the woman, squatted down, took the cake out of the handkerchief, handed it to the woman, smiled and said, ”eat it.”
The woman looked at Yang Zijin warily, and saw that the woman in front of her was dressed in rich people's clothes. However, these rich people could not avoid them. How could they give her food so kindly.
Seeing that the woman was still hesitant, Yang Zijin looked at her and smiled, then broke off a piece of cake and put it into her mouth, ”Auntie, eat it quickly.”
Seeing this, the woman quickly grabbed the cake from Yang Zijin's hand and ate it. Because she ate it too fast, she choked on the cake and coughed.
Yang Zijin saw this and quickly opened the kettle and handed it to the woman. ”Eat slowly. There is water.”
After the woman had drunk the water, she put the cake in her hand into her mouth and chewed it up, then fed it to the baby in her hand.
The baby showed a naive smile after eating.
At this time, the woman quickly knelt down with the baby in her arms and kowtowed to Yang Zijin, ”thank you, girl. She's such a nice person.”
”Get up now, auntie. Don't scare the child.” Yang Zijin quickly picked up the woman who was kneeling on the ground.
Then he asked, ”Auntie, why are you alone, the father of the child?”
Never mind, Yang Zijin asked, only to see the woman crying.
”After the flood, everything in the family was washed away. That day we were so hungry that he went to beg for food for me and the children. No one gave it to him. Later, his father stole two steamed stuffed buns while the people in the baozi shop didn't pay attention. He was killed by the guy in the baozi shop.” Then the woman cried even more.
After hearing this, Yang Zijin asked, ”what about the local officials after the flood? No way? ”
”It's too late for these officials to avoid us. How can they manage the lives of us?” At this time, the hungry and dying man said.
Seeing that the carriage did not move forward, shuoling dismounted and came to Yang Zijin.
Go to Yang Zijin and ask, ”what's the matter?”
”Shuo Hou, these people are hungry and powerless. Do you think you can leave a group of people here?”
”No way.”
”Why?”
”These are just a few victims you see. If you put food here and there are more victims in it, do you want to run here?”
”What about them?”
”No matter who says it, not long before we go to Jiandu City, we will make porridge in the city, which can reduce the cost of personnel, and gather the victims together for better management.”
”It's still the Marquis's consideration.” Yang Zijin smiled and nodded.
At this time, Yang Zijin turned to the victims lying on the road and said, ”this is Lord Shuo, who is specially in charge of the disaster relief. Everyone gets up and follows our team to Jiandu city. When we get there, we will have dinner.”
”Have you eaten?” Hearing that there was a meal lying on the road, the disgusting victims suddenly saw the light in their eyes, but they could still see a face they didn't believe.
Seeing this, Yang Zijin said to them, ”yes, not bad.”
”But now there are many people in Jiandu who are infected with the plague. Go back...” At this time, there was a bony man on one side with a color of hesitation.
At this time, I saw someone supporting an old family come over, ”anyway, they are starving to death, but they are afraid of these. Even if they are infected with the plague, they should also be full of dead.”
”Yes, we will build the capital.” Hearing this, the man who was still hesitating stood up.
After hearing this, Yang Zijin frowned, ”what do you say? There is plague?”
”Girl, since the flood, these officials have ignored us, drowned or starved, and no one has dealt with them. Now the weather is just hot, and the plague quickly spread.” At this time, the old man who stood up said.
Hearing this, Yang Zijin turned to look at Xiang shuoling.
I saw no waves on its face, as if I had known it for a long time.
Indeed, he had received the news from Mo Li for a long time. At that time, he didn't say it in the Imperial City, because he was afraid that Chu Shiyou might be suspicious.
Now that we have arrived at the capital, it is also time to write back to the imperial city to explain the situation in this place. Let it send someone to treat these people suffering from pestilence and nausea.
He didn't agree to serve porridge here. He wanted to gather all the victims so as not to let the people infected with the plague go out of the capital and spread out.
At this time shuoling led Yang Zijin to the carriage. ”When we get to Jiandu, we are going to write. We are not allowed to go anywhere.”
