The wonderful life of modern women in ancient times

Lin Xi came to the backyard of Huichun Hall and saw that the gate was open, so he parked the carriage outside the door and walked in!

When I entered the yard, I saw Manager Zhou and Quanfu struggling to lift several large sacks onto a cart!

When I got closer, I found that there were big pots, spoons and stacks of large coarse porcelain bowls on the cart!

"Uncle Zhou, Quanfu, what are you two busy with?"

Lin Xi leaned over and whispered in Quanfu's ear, who was facing away from her, and asked in confusion.

Hearing the sudden voice beside his ear, Quanfu jumped aside in fright. He exhaled, patted his chest and looked at Lin Xi and said, "Oh! I'm scared to death! Miss Lin, why are you walking without making any sound!"

"You were so absorbed in your work that you didn't notice what was happening behind you! What are these pots and bowls for?"

Lin Xi patted Quanfu's shoulder and said with a smile.

Before Quanfu could reply, Shopkeeper Zhou spoke.

"Some refugees came from Guanxi Prefecture. They were so hungry that their bones were just skin and bones. They looked really pitiful. We planned to go to the city gate to give them some food and make some warm tonic soup! Lin Xi girl, how come you have time to come here today?"

Seeing the shopkeeper's reply, Quanfu grinned at Lin Xi, then ran to the front hall, brought a large bag of herbs, put them on the cart, and went to pack up other things.

"Uncle Zhou is such a kind-hearted person! I came to the city to buy some pens, ink, paper and inkstone, and by the way, I came to ask Uncle Zhou when the medicine-making tools I want will arrive!"

As Lin Xi spoke, he reached out to help Shopkeeper Zhou move a large sack of grain onto the cart!

Shopkeeper Zhou dusted himself off and said, "After An Er sent the message, I immediately sent someone to Qingyun County to transport it. It will be transported to Huichun Hall this afternoon. As soon as the tools arrive, I will send someone to deliver them to you!"

"Okay, we have prepared the herbs for making the first batch of pills. Once the tools arrive, we will start working immediately tomorrow and deliver the first batch of pills to Jun Moxie as soon as possible!"

Hearing Lin Xi's words, Shopkeeper Zhou said happily: "That's great! The Jin soldiers are really too strong. The master is anxious to get the pills, just to quickly strengthen the soldiers' physique so that they can have a fighting force with the Jin soldiers!"

As the two were talking, Quanfu prepared everything they needed, walked over and told them that they could set off.

Lin Xi stuffed two silver bills into Shopkeeper Zhou's arms and said, "Uncle Zhou, this is what I'm donating to the people outside the city. Please buy some food and cotton clothes for me and distribute them to them!"

Shopkeeper Zhou did not refuse and carefully put it away!

Lin Xi then led the carriage and followed Manager Zhou and Quanfu out of the city!

When the three of them arrived outside the city gate, they saw that some people were already distributing porridge!

"It's Mrs. Li!" Quanfu said in a low voice.

After checking that there was no one around, he leaned over to Lin Xi's ear and whispered, "Miss Lin, have you heard that a few days ago, feces was thrown at the gate of the Li Mansion in the city, and Young Master Li was stripped naked, covered in feces, and hung upside down on a tree?"

Lin Xi touched his nose and nodded.

She thought to herself: What a coincidence, this is what I did!

Seeing that Lin Xi knew about this, Quanfu continued to whisper: "The lady who is distributing porridge is Mr. Li's second wife, and the one standing next to her is her biological son, the fifth young master of the Li family! They are the only two good people in the Li family! Miss Lin, let me tell you..."

Quanfu was telling Lin Xi gossip about the rich businessmen in the city, and he was talking very excitedly!

Shopkeeper Zhou, who had already walked far away, saw that Quanfu had not caught up, and immediately shouted to him: "Quanfu, come here quickly, prepare to distribute the grain!"

Mrs. Li had finished distributing porridge. She told her servants to distribute the coarse cotton clothes she brought to the refugees, and then led people into the city and returned to her house. When she passed by Manager Zhou, she smiled and nodded to him.

Shopkeeper Zhou stepped aside and bowed to her!

The refugees in the distance were bowing to Madam Li with gratitude!

When he heard Shopkeeper Zhou talking about distributing grain, he got up excitedly, approached Shopkeeper Zhou cautiously, and asked, "Sir, are you going to distribute grain to us?"

After asking, everyone stared at Shopkeeper Zhou without blinking!

"Yes, I am distributing food to you. Everyone line up and come one by one!"

Hearing Manager Zhou's affirmative answer, everyone wiped their eyes happily and lined up in a very orderly manner!

Shopkeeper Zhou scooped the grain into small cloth bags and distributed them to the refugees!

Quan Fu quickly set up the pot, took out the herbs and put them into the pot, and added a large pot of water!

Seeing this, Lin Xi quickly ran into the woods!

After a while, she came to Quanfu dragging a dry sapling.

Then he quickly broke the tree into pieces of dry firewood and piled them next to Quanfu!

"Thank you Miss Lin!"

Quanfu laughed and thanked Lin Xi. He continued to gossip with her about the wealthy businessmen in the city while quickly lighting the fire to boil the medicine!

Thanks to him, Lin Xi has a general understanding of all the wealthy families in the city!

After a while, the medicine soup was almost ready!

The refugees had received their food, and after thanking Manager Zhou, they returned to their original places and sat down!

A refugee family that was closer to the pot came over curiously and asked, "Young man, what are you cooking? Is it for us too?"

"This is the warming and nourishing medicine our shopkeeper prepared for you. You are too weak, so come and line up to drink a bowl!"

Several people thanked Manager Zhou, Quanfu and Lin Xi again and again with tears in their eyes, and then happily went to inform other refugees!

After a while, everyone lined up in an orderly manner!

Lin Xi looked up and saw that in the front was a group of skinny kids, followed by gray-haired old people, then some women, and finally adult men!

She felt touched and depressed!

At this time, these refugees can still give the opportunity to nourish their bodies to children and the elderly!

Such simple and kind people ended up starving and wandering around!

However, those corrupt officials who exploit the people are living a life of debauchery and pleasure!

And there are those wealthy businessmen who are unkind!

It's really unfair!

Suddenly, a thunder exploded overhead! It was deafening!

People were shocked!

Lin Xi jumped up and cursed: "What? I said that the heaven is unfair and you are wronged? I haven't scolded you yet! Damn God, look at this world and see if it is fair to these ordinary people? Dare to scare me suddenly again!"

Everyone stared in amazement at the girl in red who was jumping up and down in anger, looking up at the sky, and roaring loudly!

After the thunder in the sky, there was no more movement!

Only Lin Xi's roar echoed around!

"Lin Xi girl! Lin Xi girl?"

Shopkeeper Zhou came to Lin Xi and carefully tugged at her sleeve.

Motion her to look around!

Lin Xi stopped angrily, and seeing everyone staring at her blankly, she was stunned too!

What happened to her just now?

Why are you suddenly quarreling with God?

And this scene feels so familiar, as if she often fights with God!

Looking at the people who were still staring at her, she touched her nose embarrassedly, and said with a smile: "Well, it's okay, everyone continue to get the soup!"

Everyone looked at the embarrassed little girl, smiled kindly, held the medicine and lowered their heads to drink it in small sips!

"Lin Xi girl, are you okay?"

Shopkeeper Zhou asked worriedly.

Quanfu also looked at Lin Xi worriedly.

"Haha! I'm fine! Uncle Zhou, let's clean up!"

After saying that, he pulled Quanfu to pack up the sacks and put them on the cart!

Seeing that she really didn't look like she was in trouble, Manager Zhou called a few refugees and left the pots and pans to them.

He also asked them to take the remaining firewood over for use at night, and then he took Quanfu and Lin Xi, said goodbye, and went back to the city!

Lin Xi drove the carriage towards Linshan Village. Along the way, he was still thinking about his inexplicable behavior just now.

After thinking for a while, I put the matter behind me!
