Traveling through time with billions of supplies to become a farmer's little fortune
Chapter 211: Nanzhou Disaster Victims
Su Muyao saw the children shivering in the straw hut and the old man who was breathing out more than breathing in.
He waved to Xiao Xia and several guards and said, "Go and move out some of the food that you brought with you, and cook some rice porridge for everyone first."
Soon the village chief led the villagers to set up the iron pot. When the villagers saw that the little princess had brought them all fine rice, they were shocked.
The dying old men and women in the straw hut looked at Su Muyao with gratitude.
They knew that their children and grandchildren might survive, so their own life or death no longer mattered.
Under everyone's expectant gaze, the two pots of white rice porridge finally began to bubble.
Su Muyao got on the carriage alone and took out sugar and salt from the carriage.
I planned to have them put salt in one pot and sugar in the other.
Xiao Xia saw her little princess climb onto the carriage, and then grunted as she took out a large bag of sugar from the carriage.
He hurried over and Su Muyao took a lot of White Rabbit candies from the carriage to distribute to the children in the village.
Xiao Xia was holding a big bag of sugar and salt, while Su Muyao was holding a big bag of White Rabbit milk candy.
"Come and line up here." As soon as the words fell, those smart children came to Su Muyao.
Some timid and young children still cling to their parents' thighs and refuse to let go.
The children's parents pushed their children and asked them to line up in front of the little princess so that they could have candy.
In previous years, when they had a little money in savings, they were reluctant to buy candy for the children.
Not to mention this kind of packaged sugar, which looks extremely expensive at first glance.
Not to mention eating it, I haven't even looked at it.
All the children who got candy held the candies tightly and returned to their parents.
None of the children peeled off the sugar coating and ate it on the spot.
After Su Muyao distributed the candies, she sat on the stool brought by the village chief and watched the villagers distribute the porridge.
Everyone who was given the rice porridge squatted aside and slurped it up, regardless of how hot it was.
Xiaoqiu looked at the happy smiles on the faces of the uncles and aunts in the village. She was also happy at this moment (●°u°●) 」
The only pity is that I didn’t get the news earlier, otherwise my grandparents wouldn’t have…
Before leaving, Su Muyao asked the village chief to distribute all the rice she brought with her, and also gave Xiaoqiu a few days off alone.
There were not many villagers in this village, and each household received dozens of kilograms of food that they brought with them.
The group then left in a carriage.
Not long after leaving the small village, Su Muyao's stomach started growling.
Xiao Xia looked at the little princess with amusement and said, "Princess, why don't we find an inn and eat something before going back."
"it is good"
"The coachman in front naturally also heard the conversation between the princess and Xiaoxia."
They soon arrived at a small town.
The driver in front saw that they had arrived at a place called Linfeng Town, and said to the little princess: "Linfeng Town is a little further ahead. It's getting late and it's snowing heavily outside. Let's stay in this town tonight."
Su Muyao opened the carriage curtain and looked out at the heavy snow falling. It was already late and it was no longer suitable for traveling.
"Okay, let's find an inn."
The driver found a nice inn and stopped there. Several people asked for a few rooms, went back to their rooms to wash their faces, and then went downstairs to eat.
When they came down, there were already several tables of people sitting on the first floor.
Su Muyao and her friends asked for a table in the corner and ordered a few dishes. When they were out, there was no distinction between master and servant, so everyone sat at the same table.
Before the food was served, a group of ragged people blocked the door and stretched their dirty hands in to ask for food.
"Go! Go! Go"
The waiter waved his hands impatiently: "More than ten waves a day, who can stand it?"
But those people still blocked the way there, refusing to leave and begging constantly.
"We came from Nanzhou. Our house has been flooded. Please give us some food."
Su Muyao frowned and said, "Waiter, bring some more steamed buns."
Su Muyao distributed the steamed buns to them and then asked, "Didn't I hear that there was a flood in your area before winter came? Didn't the emperor send people to provide disaster relief?"
Su Muyao was really puzzled. So much time had passed, and everyone should have been settled in. How could they have come from such a far place like Nanzhou to the vicinity of the capital?
One of the men said, "Those dog officials only give us porridge once every three days, but we don't get most of it."
Another limping old man in his fifties or sixties also said angrily: "When the official heard that the court had sent people to inspect, he started to drive us away.
We had no choice but to hide here and there, so we brought our family to the capital."
"I heard that someone went down to check that day and they cooked four large pots of rice porridge. But when that person left, the rice porridge was taken away with the pots."
Before Su Muyao could say anything, a man at another table interrupted, "I came from there too. I heard that someone stepped forward and wanted to break into the Zhou Mansion to give the people an explanation, but I heard that he was gagged and beaten to death."
Su Muyao slammed the table in anger and said, "This is outrageous. Is there anyone among you who is willing to accompany me to the capital to meet the emperor and tell him about your situation?"
When the people around heard this little girl call herself "Princess", they all knelt down and saluted.
"Greetings to the princess, may the princess be blessed."
Everyone in the inn knelt down in unison. All those who heard the news at the door of the inn also knelt down in unison. Only the passers-by on the road looked at the inn with curiosity.
"You all get up!"
The first person among the group of refugees who spoke stood up and took a step forward.
"My Lord, I am willing to follow you back to the capital to see the Emperor."
Su Muyao nodded: "Xiao Xia, take him to a room and let him wash up. He will go to the capital with this princess tomorrow morning."
Then he invited all the refugees outside into the inn and ordered two tables of food for them.
The innkeeper knew that it was the princess's idea, so there was no reason for him to disagree. He personally busied himself serving these refugees.
Su Muyao and the others ate a quick bite and went back to their rooms to rest. The next morning, they hurried back to Beijing with two or three refugees.
As soon as he arrived in the capital, he didn't even go back to the Princess's Mansion, but went straight to the palace.
Since the emperor had specifically instructed that the little princess enjoyed special privileges, if there was anything important she could go directly to the bedroom or the court to see the emperor.
At this moment, the morning court was halfway through when a young eunuch came hurriedly to report that the young princess wanted to see her.
The emperor knew very well that as long as the little princess came, it must be something, so he waved his hand and let her in.
Su Muyao came in with two men, and everyone looked at the two skinny men curiously.
"Your Majesty, long live the Emperor!"
The two men knelt down quickly, while Su Muyao bowed slightly and stood up without the emperor waving.
"Please get up quickly. Yaoyao is here to report something."
"Uncle Huang, I came here to help the disaster victims in Nanzhou."
After saying this, he glanced at Lord Wang.
Lord Wang was so frightened by Su Muyao's look that he shuddered.
It was indeed he who personally took charge of the disaster relief work in Nanzhou, but he did his best and only returned to the capital to report after everything was settled.
