For the people affected by the disaster, it is good to drink mung bean soup at this time to cool down the heat.
sugar?
How dare they pursue that?
For Xiao Nianzhi, the cost of adding sugar is too high.
Although they are tasked with disaster relief, they still need to consider various reconstructions in the later period.
Therefore, money must be spent wisely.
Although it is said that because of the glass, His Majesty's treasury is richer.
However, the war between the southwest and the northwest is still ongoing, and Governor Zhao is still eyeing the Zhendongwei side, wanting to kill Guaguo and turn it into Guazhou.
So, where is the money not needed?
Xiao Nianzhi didn't even look at the progress of the train and temporarily put it on hold.
We really don't have that much extra money to lay railroad tracks.
Therefore, it is impossible to add sugar.
Pure mung beans can cool down the heat.
After mung beans, there is honeysuckle water.
The people affected by the disaster were actually reluctant to come over at first.
Even if they have speculations and expectations in their hearts.
However, some things are really just dreams. Is it possible that they really dare to come here?
Until the guard shouted at the top of his lungs.
When the people heard this, did they really give them food?
Everyone looked at each other excitedly, but no one dared to move.
After all, the tall guards over there don't look easy to mess with.
What if I heard it wrong?
"What does that sound like to you?"
"I hear it's for us?"
"Is that possible?"
"I don't know. Why don't you give it a try?"
…
The people asked each other in low voices, as if they wanted to get some recognition from other people.
Some people were still hesitant, but some people's children were already crying from hunger and couldn't help it at this time, so they boldly went over to take a look.
After careful inquiry, I found that it is indeed possible, as long as you queue up honestly!
The people who came first were so excited that they shed tears, and they lined up honestly one by one.
There was no need for the guards to look at them, and they lined up spontaneously.
Others who were watching found that they had really received the porridge, and they didn't even need to take out their bowls, so they all braved it and went over.
After actually receiving porridge, I heard that you can also receive mung bean soup, and even register your information, and drink honeysuckle water to relieve the heat. Everyone was so excited.
But the mung bean soup and so on will go to the back of the queue.
They need to eat first!
Some people haven't eaten for two or three days and barely drank a little water that was not very clean. Now their hungry eyes are bulging.
Although it is hot now, no one cares about it.
The warm porridge enters the stomach and warms up the body.
Although it’s hot, it’s comfortable!
I always feel that after eating this mouthful of porridge, people will start to live.
Xu Miaoniang prepared a wooden barrel, and the cooked porridge was poured directly into the barrel. The guards over there were responsible for preparing the rice.
The porridge cannot be stopped here because we are not sure how many victims will come later.
Therefore, the porridge still needs to be cooked.
The grains in the middle are harder and need to be cooked longer before they are easy to digest.
Compared to the busy and lively scene here, Xiao Nianzhi's scene was a little deserted.
Especially the pot of honeysuckle water, because registration information is required, no one dared to come and ask.
Xiao Nianzhi was not in a hurry, handed the pot to others to look at, and went over to help Xu Miaoniang.
When the people finally ate, had something in their stomachs, felt less uncomfortable on their bodies, and felt the scorching heat of the noon sun, one by one they finally came to their senses.
By the way, they can also drink mung bean soup.
As for honeysuckle?
To be honest, many people don't know what it is?
However, adults say that it can be drunk to cool down the heat, so that should be fine, right?
Moreover, you need to register with your personal information before you can receive it, which is still very precious, right?
When the people were full, they were a little bit ready to move.
If one person steps forward to receive the mung bean soup, others will follow.
They had been hungry for a long time and it was hard for them to eat too much at once.
But mung bean soup is water...
Is it okay to drink more?
Xiao Nianzhi had considered the issue of excretion early in the morning.
There is a very large shack outside the city, which is a temporary open-air toilet.
The government officials here, as well as the temporarily recruited government officials, have gone over to maintain order. Their task is to ensure the health and safety outside the city and try to avoid possible epidemics after the disaster!
If people live with excrement, and then eat contaminated water...
I can’t even imagine the consequences!
Some people don't quite understand, but at least they still care about their face. It's not okay to urinate and defecate in front of other people, right?
Some men are not too particular and can solve whatever they feel.
However, after being stared at by the tall and powerful government officials, all of them became honest.
You are eating and drinking for free, but you still don’t obey me at this time?
Looking for trouble?
People are still afraid of officials, even if they are just government servants.
Therefore, the management outside the city is relatively good.
When queuing, there will occasionally be conflicts and friction.
But as soon as the Yamen came forward, those people became honest instantly.
Of course, there are also cases where the women at home are reluctant to eat and drink by themselves and give them to the men and children in the family.
At first, Xu Miaoniang was very afraid that Xiao Nianzhi, a young girl from the capital, would get angry when she saw this situation and step out to take care of it.
It's not that I can't control this kind of thing.
But...
Some things are really a matter of fighting or enduring.
No matter what, others may not accept your favor.
When Xu Miaoniang was young, she encountered something like this. Later, she was injured twice and became more cautious.
Now when faced with such a situation, she can deal with it expressionlessly.
However, she was afraid that Xiao Nianzhi would be unjust if something like this happened to her.
The result was beyond her expectation.
Xiao Nianzhi saw it, but he only looked at it a few more times, then turned around and continued busy with his own affairs.
Looking at Xiao Nianzhi's still busy back, Xu Miaoniang couldn't explain how she felt.
All in all, it's a bit complicated.
Originally, she thought she was an innocent little girl.
As a result, others are much more experienced than me.
However, think about it carefully.
They can enter the officialdom, which is already better than most women in the world.
Therefore, people may see this kind of thing more clearly.
Even in the capital, you may encounter more people.
Regarding this, Xiao Nianzhi said: It's really not the case. Maybe it's because I've seen it too much in modern times and I'm used to it.
Xiao Nianzhi has learned to deal with this situation indifferently and face it calmly.
She is neither a very idle person nor a very cheap person.
So, why bother?
She was not born indifferent, she just got used to it after being taught how to be a good person by reality again and again.
