Even if there were transactions between them and those families, the three people who died were also caused by them.

In theory, this is a capital crime.

However, if the two parties can reach an agreement and these shopkeepers are willing to bleed heavily, there might be a glimmer of hope!

Several shopkeepers were interrogated separately, and each of them received only fifty or sixty lashes. When they were dying, they confessed everything they should and shouldn't have confessed.

When Xiaoxiao heard the news, she found it quite boring.

However, Lord Sun sent over one thousand taels of silver as compensation.

The little girl took it readily and took out two hundred taels to give to Lao Wang and Xiao Er as medical expenses.

The workers were extremely grateful, as the average amount per person was thirty or forty taels, which was an amount they had never seen before. Moreover, the bonuses here were not small, not to mention the wages.

What moved Xiaoxiao the most were those little beggars.

After I had money, I went directly to the grain store and bought the worst quality rice, and had it all sent back to its original place.

“Why buy the worst rice?”

Meng Meng asked in confusion.

The little beggar smiled happily, "Because this kind of rice is edible. There are many people over there, and winter is coming soon. For people like us, winter is the most difficult time to get through! But if everyone can eat a bowl of porridge, maybe we can get through the winter!"

Meng Meng just felt her nose sour, "Did any of your friends or relatives die in winter?"

The little beggar sighed, "Of course there are! And many die every year. We are starving and cold, and if we get sick, even the most common fever can kill us!"

The life of a little beggar is worthless. No matter when he gets sick, he can only rely on himself to endure it.

They also know a little about herbs and will go outside to look for them.

However, what we usually find are the most common ones, and it is not certain whether they will work or be reliable.

Xiaoxiao also sighed, "Let's buy some more rice, take this hundred taels of silver. Oh, and buy them some quilts and cotton clothes, so they can wear warm clothes in the winter!"

"Thank you, little master!"

Several little beggars knelt down, "You are our great benefactor!"

Xiaoxiao...I feel like I've been given the benefactor card again!

When she returned home, the little girl was still a little depressed.

When Sheng Yuhua saw her like this, she quickly hugged the little girl in her arms and comforted her gently, "What's wrong? What happened?"

Xiaoxiao hurriedly told Sheng Yuhua what had happened in the noodle shop over the past two days. Sheng Yuhua had been studying medicine at home over the past two days and had not gone out, so he didn't know anything about the noodle shop!

"You little girl, you are really getting bolder and bolder. Can't you tell your mother if something happens? You are still a child. What if those people get angry with you?"

Sheng Yuhua was a little scared!

Xiaoxiao chuckled, "Mom, don't worry, Xiaoxiao is very powerful!!"

"Xiaoxiao will never let anything happen to herself. Besides, if there is any danger, the uncles and aunts arranged by you and Dad will protect Xiaoxiao!"

Sheng Yuhua glared at her and said, "That won't work either. You are still a child. Don't be so reckless in the future!"

The little girl hummed to indicate that she understood.

However, if I encounter similar problems in the future, I will still solve them myself!

Master said that you should do your own things yourself and not ask your mother for everything.

If you don’t know, you would think you are a baby who has not been weaned!

"But, mother, I am sad because of those beggars!"

"Master said that all people are born equal. What do you think is wrong with those little beggars? If you must say they are wrong, it is that they were not born into a good belly!"

"After the beggars I hired got the money, the first thing they did was to buy rice for their former companions! And they bought the worst rice!"

"Mother, can I protect them?"

The little girl is now extremely conflicted.

There was obviously a lot of food in her space. If she was in Daqian Kingdom and saw such a scene, she would help without hesitation.

But this is their enemy country, and she and her parents came here to seek revenge.

But I also feel that the people and beggars here are all innocent.

"When people are hungry, what they want most is to have a full meal. Or just barely fill their stomachs. If they don't have much money, they will definitely buy the cheapest."

"Because we buy more cheap things, we can eat them for a longer time!"

"You don't have to feel guilty. The people and beggars here are all innocent. It was the emperor who framed our parents and poisoned us. It has nothing to do with these ordinary people!"
