I travel back and forth between ancient and modern times, hoarding goods to raise my grandchildren a
Chapter 101 Hmm? You gave me this kind of book?
Yu Wanwan looked at Chun Tao and raised her eyebrows with amusement.
Gee tut.
This young girl seems to be quite something.
Even Chen Shu, the chief steward in charge of managing grain and water, hadn't washed his hands; they were still dirty and stained with blood.
She also recalled that General Pei Yi still had a stench that could make her vomit.
But the little girl in front of me had washed herself very clean.
Not only did I wash my hands, but I also washed my hair, and my face was very clean.
Aside from being excessively thin and having malnourished, yellowish skin, he was quite a striking figure among a group of filthy, dark-skinned people.
If she remembered correctly, if the water she took out was divided equally among everyone, it probably wouldn't be enough for them to take a bath and wash their hair, right?
How did this little girl manage to wash herself so clean? Did she use water from the whole family?
In this situation, regardless of the life or death of your family, you must clean yourself up?
“Madam, General Chen said that from now on I will be your personal maid, and I will follow you wherever you go.”
"Just tell me what you want to do."
Chun Tao noticed that Yu Wanwan was watching her and felt a little flustered.
He could only force himself to remain calm and repeat what Chen Shu had just said.
Yu Wanwan nodded: "Yes, you can stay by my side. But since Chen Shu said you're here to be my personal maid, you'd better refer to yourself as 'this servant' when you talk to me."
Yu Wanwan doesn't usually pay much attention to these rules.
So much so that even in front of the emperor, she would often refer to herself as "I".
But looking at Chuntao, she felt that she might be a bit like that.
It always feels weird.
Chun Tao paused for a moment, lowered her head, and obediently said, "Yes, this servant understands."
After that, she kept her head down.
Yu Wanwan could no longer see her face.
She hummed in agreement and walked out of the courtyard.
The children here are all good children, and they all gave her the highest points. She plans to take advantage of her free time to go out and check on them.
She didn't go far, staying just outside the general's mansion.
Outside the general's mansion, many soldiers were still being distributed food and water.
Even if there are spies here now, and someone wants to arrest her, she should be safe within the General's Mansion.
"Hello, madam."
"Hello, madam."
"Madam, have you eaten? I just received my rations. If you haven't eaten yet, I'll go home right away and cook for you."
"Madam, are you thirsty? I have some water on my hand, you can have some to drink."
When the villagers who had just received their food and water saw Yu Wanwan, they wished they could immediately take out their food and water and give them to her.
Yu Wanwan nodded her thanks one by one.
"Yes, everyone."
"I've already eaten, I'm not hungry. You can keep the food you have for yourself and your family."
"I'm not thirsty. I still have water in my hand. Take the water back and share it with your family."
……
At that moment, she felt like a high-ranking official on an incognito tour.
There were many children in the queue for food, helping the adults to stand in line.
There's a significant gap between the children on this border and those in Beijing.
When she was still in the capital, the children she saw, apart from being hungry and thirsty, stunted, and deformed, were all well-dressed.
Even if the clothes are a little dirty, you can still tell that the fabric is very good.
Even the children in the poorest areas of Beijing, though dressed somewhat roughly, were still properly dressed.
At least they shouldn't catch a cold.
Meanwhile, the children on this side of the border.
It's already quite good to be able to wear clothes that are covered in patches.
He was mostly wearing a large, oversized garment that clearly didn't fit his size and was so patched up that it couldn't be patched any more.
Many of them even wore only a large, tattered long robe over their upper body, and no pants on their lower body, leaving their legs bare.
It's already late autumn, and it's much colder here on the border than in the capital.
When she woke up in the morning, she even saw a layer of frost on the water she had released the night before.
Yu Wanwan was so cold that she had to put on a cotton-padded coat.
But the children could only shiver with their legs bare.
Yu Wanwan recalled that many soldiers in the barracks seemed to be dressed very lightly.
She frowned.
Suddenly, an old man rushed out carrying a small box.
Chen Shu arranged for soldiers to stay with Yu Wanwan and protect her.
The elderly man couldn't get close to Yu Wanwan.
He knelt down about five meters away from Yu Wanwan.
"Madam, this is a golden bowl passed down from my ancestors. I am grateful to you for bringing food and water to everyone. I have nothing else to repay you with, so I can only shamelessly present you with this golden bowl. I hope you will not find it offensive."
After someone started it.
One by one, people followed and knelt down in front of Yu Wanwan.
Most of the remaining people on the border were from impoverished families.
Because of their poverty, they were unable to flee to other places when the drought first broke out.
They had no choice but to stay and wait to die.
So what they can offer isn't anything good.
The old man's gold bowl was already the best item among them.
Most of them only cost a few copper coins.
These are the best things these people can offer.
There was even a woman who was wearing a tattered single garment, but was holding a pink floral dress in her hands.
“Madam, I originally intended to save this piece of fabric for my daughter's dowry dress, but without you, my daughter would probably just wait to die. So last night, I specially used this fabric to make a dress for you.”
I hope you won't find it offensive, Madam.
Yu Wanwan was very obedient and truly did not show any disdain.
She asked Chuntao and the soldiers to help her accept all the gifts that the people had given her.
She couldn't be a spoilsport.
When someone wants to give you something and you refuse, it shatters their expectations of receiving a gift, which is quite annoying.
Since we accepted their gifts...
Yu Wanwan also decided that she wanted to repay them even more.
She will stay here until she travels back in time again.
First, stock up on a batch of winter supplies for them.
"Dog Egg, quick, take out the book that Grandpa just asked you to bring and give it to Madam to thank her for not abandoning us."
An elderly woman with a child approached her again.
The old man looked to be in his sixties.
The child was about five or six years old.
They were dressed in tattered and thin clothes.
The child obediently presented a book.
Looking at the book cover, Yu Wanwan's lips twitched.
The cover simply had four large characters written on it.
Bedroom Pleasures
If she wasn't mistaken, could this be an ancient erotic book?
"Madam, this is a book that I obtained by chance. I heard from others that books are very precious things, so I wanted to give it to you in the hope that it can help you."
