Chapter 184 Do More Good Deeds
She had long discovered that most people in Dingshui Village were actually very kind, and at least they were willing to lend a hand to others when their own lives were not in danger.
The presence of two more people did not affect Village Chief Li and others from entering the city. They arrived outside the city before the city gate opened and were the first in line.
Although it was only the morning of April, the sun had already started working. The scorching sunlight shining on people did not make them feel enjoyable, but only made them feel extremely hot.
Fortunately, Jiang Qinyu and the others were in the front of the line, and as soon as the city gate opened, they hurried into the city.
The buildings in the city provide more shade on the road, so it’s not as sunny, but it’s still uncomfortable.
"Dachui, hurry up, let's go directly to the granary." Village Chief Li urged.
Li Dachui also knew that buying food today was very important, so he immediately accelerated when he heard this.
At this moment, the two people who had fainted in the same car with Liu Erleng woke up.
"This is..." Ping An looked at the Seventh Prince across from him and said nervously, "Your Highness, you..."
The Seventh Prince had just opened his eyes, and when he heard Ping An's name, he immediately signaled him to be silent, "Don't say anything."
It was obvious that they were in a car.
That night, after he and Ping'an left Liu Ruyi's convoy, they rushed to Yongshan County. However, they underestimated the weather and the water shortage in Yukang Prefecture.
So the Seventh Prince changed his route and headed straight for Dingshui Village.
But he underestimated his and Ping An's physical condition. Due to lack of water, they both fainted on the road.
Before he fainted, the thought that flashed through the Seventh Prince’s mind was “It’s over”, but now that he has woken up, he finds that he has been saved, and Ping An has also been saved, which shows that his luck is still so good.
"Huh? Are you two awake?" Liu Erlang heard some noise coming from the car. He took the time to turn around and lift the curtain to take a look. He saw the Seventh Prince and Ping An sitting opposite each other.
The Seventh Prince saw Liu Erleng and bowed, "Brother... were you the one who saved us?"
"That's not the case. It was our village chief who saved you, and we all agreed to take you with us." Liu Erlang laughed.
Ping An's shrill voice suddenly uttered, "Where are you taking us?"
Liu Erlang glanced at him, thinking his words were strange. However, he didn't think much of it and simply explained, "We went into the city to buy food today. You were both unconscious at the time. If we had left you on the side of the road, wouldn't we have given you water for nothing? So our village chief agreed to take you into the city with us."
"Go into the city?" The Seventh Prince seemed to be lost in thought. "Are we in Yongshan County now?"
He originally wanted to bypass Yongshan County and go directly to Dingshui Village.
"Yes," Liu Erleng nodded, then turned back to driving. After the car was running smoothly, he said, "But you are awake now, so get off right in front!"
The Seventh Prince and Ping An exchanged a glance, then said, "Thank you, Village Chief, and everyone else for saving our lives. However, we, the master and the servant, would also like to buy some food. Please, brother, be kind enough to take us there."
It was strange. He remembered that his father did not distribute food to Yongshan County. He had heard that the people of Yongshan County could not make ends meet and were fleeing everywhere. If there was food, they would definitely not be like this. Then why could the people be allowed to buy food now?
In order to clear up the doubts in his mind, the seventh prince decided to go and take a look first.
"What's so inconvenient about this?" Liu Erlang said with a smile, "Originally, I was going to wait for you to wake up."
When Village Chief Li led his men to the granary in Yongshan County, there were already scattered people guarding the warehouse.
As soon as everyone got off the car, they saw that the Seventh Prince and Ping An had woken up. The honest and kind ones would go up to them and ask them if they were okay for the time being, and then give them some of their water.
Jiang Qinyu also jumped out of the car and walked over.
A woman suddenly appeared among a group of men, and she naturally became the focus of the crowd.
The Seventh Prince looked towards Jiang Qinyu, and silently sighed, he had never expected that in such a place there would be such a calm and quiet woman.
"Niece, I've seen the county magistrate. Would you like to come with me to pay his respects?" asked Village Chief Li.
Jiang Qinyu had come to inquire about other water sources, so she naturally wouldn't refuse. She nodded and said, "Then let's go."
But before she could get there, Wei Chengzhong had already arrived.
"Greetings, Madam." Wei Chengzhong bowed to Jiang Qinyu first.
Jiang Qinyu also bowed and returned the greeting, "Master Wei, how are you?"
She is still not used to the identity of the general's wife, and she feels a little overwhelmed by being respectful to Wei Chengzhong.
"The granary will be opened soon, Village Chief Li, you people in Dingshui Village can buy first. There is no limit. You can take your people to queue up first." Wei Chengzhong said to Village Chief Li.
He took great pains to get a batch of grain. Except for the privileges given to Dingshui Village, the rest of the people needed to use their ID cards to buy food, and each person could only buy two kilograms per day.
After hearing this, Village Chief Li quickly expressed his gratitude and then happily led his people to line up.
Jiang Qinyu and Wei Chengzhong took this opportunity to talk.
The seventh prince, who was not far away, saw this scene and became even more confused.
Who was that woman? Why was the county magistrate so polite to her?
The Seventh Prince had never seen Wei Chengzhong before, but he recognized the official uniforms of the court. At this time, Wei Chengzhong was wearing an official uniform, so he naturally recognized at a glance that he was the current county magistrate of Yongshan County.
"Your Highness, are we still going to buy food?" Ping An asked in a low voice.
The Seventh Prince nodded, "Of course I will buy it."
He could just take a look at how Wei Chengzhong managed the grain.
Ping An immediately went to line up, while the Seventh Prince walked a few steps towards Jiang Qinyu and the others as if nothing had happened.
This position was just right for him to hear the normal conversation between Jiang Qinyu and Wei Chengzhong. As long as they didn't lower their voices, he could hear what they said clearly.
"...Dingshui Village is fine, so I'll naturally take care of other places first."
"Lord Wei cares about the people, which is a blessing for the people of Yongshan County. However, we in Dingshui Village will also do our best to cooperate with you. As long as God is kind, everyone will have enough to eat."
"This is all thanks to Madam's help. I am deeply grateful..."
He didn't hear anything wrong with what the two people said, but the Seventh Prince drew a conclusion from their words: the group of people who rescued him were from Dingshui Village.
Thanks to Wei Chengzhong's special care, Village Chief Li and his team quickly bought food, and Ping An also came back with them.
"Thank you, sir!" Village chief Li's face flushed as he thanked Wei Chengzhong.
The main reason was that he was quite shocked when he bought grain just now. A large group of people lined up and bought hundreds of stones of grain as soon as they came in, but the people behind them could only buy two kilograms each.
Although some people were dissatisfied and wanted to cause trouble, when they heard the officers say they were from Dingshui Village, they immediately shut up, and some even thanked them.
What were they thanking them for? They were thanking Dingshui Village for distributing their high-yield grain seeds to them, and also thanking the general's wife, who was from Dingshui Village, for leading them to find a water source.
It can be seen that doing more good deeds will bring good rewards.
