Bai Su's movements alarmed the woman taking care of her.
The woman asked: "What do you need, madam?"
Bai Su was caught red-handed, and she felt a little guilty for no reason. She lowered the car curtain with an embarrassed expression, and suddenly a plan came to her mind, ready to dig out some information from the woman's mouth: "There is nothing needed... Madam, do you know?" The origin of that husband?"
The woman said warily: "Why do you ask?"
"The slave family suffered a great disaster, and it was only by chance that I saved my life when I met my benefactor..." Bai Su lowered his head, with graceful eyebrows, deliberately covering up his overly heroic face. Just listening to that delicate and soft voice, subconscious thoughts came to his mind. I imagined a delicate little lady.
No one will be wary of weak and pitiful people.
You may even feel pity.
The woman said: "That's how it is. Alas, it's so pitiful."
She looked at the injured Bai Su with pity, and couldn't help but think of the scenario of "a delicate girl encounters bad luck, and a ruthless tyrant takes advantage of her power to commit murder." She then used her own power to harm others, and finally let down her guard. She sighed softly and opened the conversation: "The young lady doesn't know the origin of Master Lang. She only knows that her surname is Shen. He is a rare and kind man."
Bai Su was surprised when he heard this.
"A good man?"
The lady nodded: "Yes."
Bai Su asked the woman again, and the question was more pointed: "Madam, is that Mr. Shen who governs the people? Follow Mr. Shen all the way to Heyin - Madam, does he know what kind of dragon, pond, and tiger's den Heyin is? Not to mention that he ate and slept in the open air and traveled by boat and carriage along the way. Lawton..."
The woman only thought that Bai Su was concerned and curious.
As for the "tea talk" in her words, she didn't notice it. She just followed Bai Su's questions and answered them one by one.
She said: "The little woman is not a native of the people under the rule of Shen Lang. Four generations of her family have lived in Sibao County. She was born and raised in Sibao County. The rebel army caused trouble a while ago. Everyone in the little woman's family was killed, and only the little one was left. Women and young children..."
A not-so-old woman, an ignorant child, her family’s savings were robbed by the rebels, and her house was burned down. She has no savings, no money, and no skills to make a living... How can they live a stable life in this world? Come down?
This combination is as easy to bully as an old man.
If she did not follow Shen Tang, but chose to stay in her hometown and start over, the woman could guess what she would encounter with her eyes closed.
She needs to go out to find a job to make a living, and cannot stay with her children all the time. Her children will be bullied, because everyone is crazy poor and hungry, and the child is more likely to be trafficked, and the end will be even worse. Mixed into butcher shops and used as preserved meat.
If she is lucky, the child is fine, but that doesn't mean she is safe - because her house was burned down, she is homeless.
Either you live in a dilapidated building with your children, or you live in a thatched hut that can barely protect you from the wind and rain. There is no safety at all. In the middle of the night, while you are asleep, different gangsters will even get into the hut, steal money, and force others to do so. She is looking for a bargain.
This kind of thing is too common.
Because she has no ability to defend herself and there are no strong men in the family, orphans and widowers will be bullied. When bullied, no one will defend her. She can only break her teeth and swallow blood. Bullying women and children has the least risk. The highest income.
How can a woman dare to stay?
Even if she knew that Heyin was a dangerous place, she had no choice but to come here - no matter what, she and her children would be able to eat solid food in the past few days, and she would not be threatened by the military master if she walked slowly. The woman even Get extra compensation for taking care of Bai Su.
A woman's words are like listening to a book from heaven.
However, her first reaction was not how kind Shen Tang was, but how she lamented that this person was "extremely rich". You must know that there were more than 3,000 people in the entire team! It was more than 3,000 people, not more than 300 people!
More than three thousand mouths!
Ordinary people account for 60%!
The remaining 40% are private parts.
Food is not only for young and strong men who can fight, but is evenly distributed to the old, weak, women and children to satisfy their hunger. Although not everyone can be very full and full, they have the strength to walk so far after eating, instead of "lying hungry" The minimum standard of "immortality"...
Bai Su made a rough estimate in his mind.
That's also a big expense.
Mr. Shen is not a wealthy man with a big business, but he is a complete fool. Otherwise, how could anyone do such a thing?
Bai Suying said calmly: "Mr. Shen has a kind heart."
The woman also nodded happily.
She has also experienced disaster years. At that time, the country was still the country of Xin - either there was a locust plague here, or there was a flood there. The people's life was "up and down", and they were "about to starve to death" and "a little hungry but... Jumping back and forth between "I will never starve to death".
Once a disaster occurs, some places will release food for disaster relief.
The so-called porridge, the porridge water is sometimes so clear that you can count the number of wheat grains, and sometimes it is so turbid that it is mixed with half of the sediment. It allows the people to "lie down and starve to death" after drinking it, not to mention how many days they can travel with their families. We've already traveled so long that I don't have the energy to say more than two words.
Comparing the two, the woman truly felt that Shen Tang was a good person, and she was not the only one. The people who anxiously chose to follow her also felt this way. They had no way to survive in the country, so they chose Shen Tang because of a sudden change of heart. , who knew I could have a full stomach.
Because Mr. Shen was at the front of the team most of the time, he did not see the soldiers of Buqu distributing food to the people. The people who received the dry food all accepted it with tears in their eyes, rather than wolfing it down, fearing that they would not be able to keep it. After one meal, they couldn't bear to eat it and hid it secretly, fearing that if they had this meal, they would lose the next meal. But they didn't expect that there would be food for every meal.
After more than half a month -
Just stop when you are allowed to stop, rest when you are allowed to stop, and just give way to go.
Who has ever cried bitterness, tiredness, or unwillingness?
No!
Not one!
Bai Suwen looked moved.
However, she was worried that the woman was exaggerating and wanted to see it with her own eyes. After half a day, Bai Suyong felt better and wanted to get out of the car and take a walk to get some fresh air. While the group stopped to rest, she He was helped out of the car by the woman.
Soldiers from the tribe were carrying bamboo baskets to distribute dry food.
Bai Su secretly craned her neck to take a look.
The bamboo basket was indeed full of round pancakes.
The ingredients used in these pancakes are very solid, thick and heavy.
When Soldier Bu Qu handed Bai Su a piece of paper, he didn't even look at it. He handed her one too. Basically, there were two for adults and one for children.
Eat during half of the break.
Eat the other half on the way.
Bai Su took a bite and had no taste, but he smelled the wheat-scented pancake, mixed it with saliva to soften it, chewed it and swallowed it.
The woman handed her a piece of bamboo tube.
This is for drinking water.
Not to mention that all the people's belongings were burned down. Even if they were not, they would not have all the pots, pans, and drinking utensils on their way to escape. They happened to pass by a remote wild bamboo forest, and Shen Tang unceremoniously ordered Zhao Feng's private servants to Steps to cut.
Free labor, no need to regret it.
Bai Su took it and thanked him in a low voice.
While she was eating, she secretly observed the expressions of the people, and it turned out that they were not lying as the woman said. She sighed in her heart and ate the cake together with the fallen crumbs. At this time, she had seen the people last night. The little lady is approaching here.
Bai Su saw that Lin Fengchong came for him.
He smiled and asked: "But my benefactor sees me?"
Lin Feng was stunned for a moment, then shook his head.
She said: "No."
Bai Su was puzzled: "What is this little lady?"
Lin Feng: "The girl's injury has not healed yet and she needs to be nursed back to health."
She glanced at Tu Rong, who was following behind her, and pursed his lips. Tu Rong accepted his fate and brought a small pot of something to the woman beside Bai Su. Bai Su was puzzled at first, but when the small pot came closer, she could smell the smell.
The tempting meaty aroma makes you swallow your saliva.
She asked: "What is this?"
Lin Feng answered truthfully: "Oh, this is a wild animal that was hunted by the scouts when they were exploring the road. Lang Jun had his hair plucked and cooked."
Bai Su knew this was a good intention, but she had already eaten one piece of pancake, and due to her injuries, she had no appetite at this time.
I wanted to borrow flowers to offer to Lin Feng.
Lin Feng thanked her for her kindness: "Girl, I can't refuse my offer, but my family still observes filial piety and has some dietary restrictions."
Although she has been traveling all this time, which is very hard, her teacher's cooking skills are much better than those of a cook, and there is a supply of meat and vegetables every day. Although the teacher cooks for her husband, she also cooks for other people.
Keep a small portion.
It's just that she and Tu Rong were still in their filial piety period and had dietary taboos.
Their part is more special and needs to be done separately.
Lin Feng is young and has a small appetite.
This past half month has become completely mellow.
Bai Su said apologetically: "It's the slave's fault."
The pot of soup was handed over to the woman's child.
Seeing that the child was not afraid of being burned at all, and drank up the fragrant milky white soup in a few sips, chewing the not-so-full pieces of meat in the pot with a satisfied look on her face, she suddenly felt a little sad, and her eyes also filled with tears.
red.
The woman asked: "Why is my wife feeling unwell?"
Bai Su lowered her head to avoid the woman's concern, not wanting others to see her fragile look. She calmed down her mood, and soon returned to her normal expression, whispering: "Nothing else, I just saw the wife and the child, and thought of her misfortune and early death."
My brother and sister..."
Strictly speaking, they were not starved to death.
My family was really very poor at that time.
My father begged for help and took on debts, but he could only keep the family alive. The two younger brothers and sisters were young and received the least amount of food. They were really hungry, and their legs were often weak and dizzy, making them uncomfortable with hunger.
Just go drink water...
One day, everyone in the family went out.
Two children stay at home and play.
At this time, the leper at the head of the village passed by the door and saw the two children playing house. You played father and I played the role of mother, making rice in the pot. The leper sneered and coaxed the two children that there was a place at the head of the village.
Earth is more fragrant than meat.
People will be free from illness and disaster after eating it!
They really went to dig and wolfed down what they had dug, not forgetting to leave a portion for their grandparents, father, mother, brother and sister. When father returned from work, the two children were already covered in the sticky mud.
Choking to death... rigor mortis.
Bai Su is "greedy" than his mentor.
She regretted too many things in her life.
For example, it's a pity that my younger brother and younger sister came to this world and didn't even know what "meat" was and how it tasted. As for the deadbeat... he was ridiculed when he came to the door to argue. It was also because of this that my grandmother had an affair with the old deadbeat.
Damn, I can’t afford to be sick anymore...
The woman didn't know why.
But looking at the sadness in Bai Su's eyes, she knew that her son had brought back the past, and her heart skipped a beat. She was so frightened that she quickly waved her hand secretly, signaling her son to get out of Bai Su's sight. From the woman's point of view, Shen Tang was willing to pay her to take care of her.
Bai Su means that this Lady Bai Su is a very important noble person. She cannot neglect her, let alone make the other party unhappy...
Bai Su did not miss the woman's expression and little movements.
She knew why after a moment's thought.
He just smiled and said nothing else.
Traveling in a hurry is very boring.
How boring?
It was so boring that Shen Tang felt bored and made up the script in her heart! She was enjoying herself, pitiful Gu Chi "catch up" to listen to the story, the first half was there, but the second half was missing. It was like the eunuch in the inner court, starting from the beginning, The bottom is gone!
Human or not?
Inhuman!
Gu Chi showed a sad face as if he had been constipated for seven or eight days.
Qishan looked surprised.
He and Gu Chi were already familiar acquaintances, so he didn't have to be too scrupulous about what he said. He said bluntly: "You really don't need to ask Chu Wuhui to sprinkle a handful of croton powder in your meal?"
Gu Chi didn't understand what he meant.
Qi Shan took out a palm-sized bronze mirror with delicate patterns on the back from the bag and showed it.
He motioned to Gu Chi to look at his face in the mirror.
Gu Chi took a moment to return to the future, and said with an unkind expression: "Croton powder? You can keep it for yourself and taste it slowly!"
This guy deserves a bowl of thick and thick croton porridge!
Damage or not!
Qi Shan was not angry even after being scolded.
Because he knew that Gu Chi was more angry than him.
When Shen Tang heard Qi Shan's laughter from behind, questions were raised in his head. He looked back and saw Gu Chi threatening Qi Shan with the scabbard of his sword. Qi Shan had a provocative face of "If you have the ability, just draw the sword"... …
Shen Tang and Kang Shi murmured.
"Look back, Ji Shou and Yuan Liang will inquire."
Kang Shi was turning his head to watch the excitement.
