In ancient times, she gave birth to seven daughters and was divorced by her husband's family.

Chapter 230: Using the sackcloth as clothes, rubbing oil on the body, and warming by the fire

Chen Yuan nodded: "I know, but what else can I do..."

As he was talking, he heard Bai Lu calmly say, "Keeping warm is nothing more than warming yourself by fire, using a tent, wearing cotton clothes, and rubbing oil on your body."

"Although you don't have a tent, I have a lot of rice bags here. After the rice bags are torn open, will they become sackcloth?"

"We give you this linen. Although it cannot be used as a tent, you can put it inside your clothes first."

"I see that your armor is still tied very tightly, but there is no cotton inside.

They are all ordinary single clothes, right?"

"Although the linen is not a big deal, every extra layer counts. I still have a lot of it."

"As long as there is linen and you can use it, I can provide you with linen in an endless supply."

"It doesn't matter if you have 2000 or people."

As she spoke, she said anxiously, "And if you don't have a house to live in, you will all die! How can Your Highness King Cheng let me arrange for you to live in the suburbs?!"

"I hadn't thought of this before, but now that I do, I think it's ridiculous!"

He was stunned for a moment, then he lowered his head and said calmly, "Because... we are all wounded soldiers."

"Our wounded soldiers can die."

"Please put it this way, Lady White, it is your kindness to arrange so many meals for us. If you don't arrange meals for us, then that's it."

"His Royal Highness King Cheng will not say anything about you either."

As he spoke, he smiled sarcastically.

"All of us wounded soldiers deserve to die."

He pointed at the people who were eating not far away and said, "Look, they are all missing limbs. How can they be effective in fighting?!"

"We deserve to die! King Cheng would like us to die tomorrow!"

There was an indescribable emotion in Chen Yuan's eyes, like disappointment or indignation.

"..."

Bai Lu couldn't describe the feeling in her heart.

Is this what the soldiers and generals who participated in the Long March thought during the Long March?

Even their soldiers who were wearing thin clothes and straw sandals had not prepared any clothes for the winter, because they were not prepared to survive until the winter.

"So... White Lady, we don't need this sackcloth anymore. We may die soon."

“…What did you say?!”

"If you don't need it, how can others not need it?! How can you make decisions for others?!"

Bai Lu's voice suddenly rose.

"I have seven children, I know what it's like to be a mother! You may be the children of other mothers, or you may already have children!"

"I just want to ask you, are you willing to let your children and your father see you freezing to death and be in great grief?"

"I don't know how I can help you. I have no relationship with you, but I really can't bear to see you become like this."

"I can't explain why in my heart, but I always feel sad."

As Bai Lu spoke, she couldn't help but burst into tears.

She felt that she was no longer a saint, but when she looked at the purple and cracked faces, the soldiers with missing legs and arms, and the smell of sweat and blood in the air, she felt a chill in her heart.

Nowadays, even if they have lost their ears and eyes, it is considered a good situation.

The remaining ones looked like they wouldn't live long.

I really can't bear to see such a tragic scene...

Maybe some people don’t understand why Bailu is so touching.

If you see a dead person or a car accident in real life, you might understand.

You will go up crying, pull the cart, and help take them to the hospital.

Sometimes, only by being truly in this environment and this era can one empathize with this era.

Standing in the wind, Bai Lu felt for the first time that the ancient times were so cruel.

I have to find a way to help and see if I can give them a hand without exposing myself.

This is also a reasonable thing to do as a lackey of the king.

I originally ran a rice shop and had to transport a lot of rice. It was no big deal to give them the remaining rice bags. It was better to cover myself with one more layer of cloth than one less.

Chen Yuan listened to her words and suddenly fell silent.

His eyes gradually turned red.

Then he nodded and said firmly: "Okay, Lady White, I'll listen to you."

"It's my fault. I shouldn't have said that."

"If they want to live, they should be allowed to live."

"Maybe if we try to live... we can see the sun tomorrow, and see their parents, their wives and children."

As he said this, he grinned.

Bai Lu noticed that his lips had more than ten cracks, and the flesh on his face was also cracked from the cold. The cuts were large and shocking, and even scabs had formed.

The purple flesh was connected to a black scab, making it look like a disfigured face.

Afterwards, Bai Lu gave instructions to the maid below.

"Lingzhi, please stop busying yourself. Leave the porridge cooking to the well-fed wounded soldiers."

"Go and get some frostbite medicine."

"Or... take some of our oil, lard or something, and apply it on your body."

Since their family is in the grain business, they naturally have a lot of oil."

All right. "

Lingzhi nodded simply and went to get the frostbite medicine and oil.

Bai Lu thought to herself that she should buy a batch of oil from the system mall later, because she was in the grain business, it wouldn't arouse suspicion.

Afterwards, Chen Yuan suddenly said to Bai Lu: "Mrs. Bai, thank you so much."

"We really remember your kindness."

"We're willing to do whatever you want us to do!!"

Bai Lu hesitated for a while, then said to him, "I'm not asking for anything in return, I just want to tell you something."

"This is what I wanted to tell you when I first asked you to come here."

He said, "What is it?"

After that, Bai Lu said, "I want to tell you... if the paralysis powder on those 20,000 soldiers is not removed, then they will all freeze to death here. It is too cold here."

He was stunned.

Then, Chen Yuan nodded without surprise, "Mrs. Bai, you have a kind heart and what you said makes sense."

"If I freeze to death here, His Royal Highness King Cheng won't be happy either."

Chen Yuan said: "If His Royal Highness Prince Cheng is unhappy, then he is not happy. Anyway, we don't want him to be happy now..."

He is very resentful.

He was mumbling to himself, as if he hadn't heard the point of Bai Lu's words and just wanted to complain about Cheng Wang and the others.
