C109 acerbity

"Xiao Ling, have you always been here?" Auntie Huang asked in surprise when she saw Li Qingling standing at the entrance of the courtyard.

She sized up Li Qingling and saw that she was a little thinner than before.

Like them, coming back like beggars?

Li Qingling looked at Aunty Huang who was so skinny that only her bones were left, and shook her head. "No, we went to the Matsuyama to hide." Pausing for a moment, he continued, "The Southern Yan King's soldiers came to the village, and my house was in a mess. Luckily we didn't stay here, otherwise …"

When Auntie Huang heard this, her body trembled. She anxiously asked, "Did those thieves harm our family?" What if the whole family was plagued with calamities?

After fleeing for a few months, they were exhausted. They came back to take a good rest, but they didn't expect to hear this bad news.

"I've only been back for two to three days. I was cleaning up my room and didn't go out to look." Li Qingling said somewhat embarrassedly: "He's probably been harmed too." Those were simply not humans. How could they not be disasters?

Hearing that, Aunty Huang's body softened and she almost collapsed to the ground. Li Qingling hurriedly reached out to support her.

Auntie Huang slapped her thigh and howled. God damn it! Not only did this cause us to be displaced, but they even dared to come and harm our family. This was truly God damn it!

Li Qingling could understand Auntie Huang's feelings, so she lightly patted her fat aunt's shoulders, "Auntie Huang, I think you guys must be tired after coming back. Why don't you go home and see what's going on? Maybe it's not as bad as I said it was, is it? "

However, she felt that it was not too far from the truth. After all, it was impossible for those enemies to not harm the other houses after coming here.

Hearing Li Qingling's words, Auntie Huang immediately nodded her head and said that she would go back and take a look.

She walked for a few steps and suddenly thought of something. She turned around and said to Li Qingling, "Xiao Ling, the imperial government has already started stocking up the food. Since there's food being distributed in the town, go and queue up to bring some back! One person can carry five meters. " If the imperial court did not send in their provisions, they would starve to death when they returned home.

Fortunately, the emperor was a heart of the people of the emperor, the first thing he did was to solve their problem of warmth and hunger.

"Alright, thank you, Auntie Huang."

She closed the courtyard door and walked into the study room. When she saw Liu Zhimo, who was teaching the children, she said, "I saw Aunt Huang at the entrance of the courtyard just now, and she said that the imperial government has already opened its stores. She said that we can go to the town to retrieve some food." Although their family still had food, they still had to put on an act.

If they did not go to the town to collect the food, and others saw them eating all day, they would have guessed at something.

In order to avoid such problems, it would be better if they went to the town to retrieve some food.

Liu Zhimo listened and replied. He put down the brush and told the children that they must finish their homework. After seeing that the children nodded, he stood up and walked out.

"Auntie Huang said to take the rice according to the population, one person can take five cubes of rice. Should we bring the children along?"

After a few children heard Li Qingling's words, they all put down the brushes in their hands and raised their heads to look at Liu Zhimo, waiting for his reply.

Liu Zhimo thought for a moment before replying, "Let the two sisters stay at home, let the younger brothers follow them!" He was afraid that his two younger sisters would resist, so he explained, "The road to town is quite long. The two younger sisters won't be able to walk that long."

The moment the two little guys heard Liu Zhimo's words, they no longer dared to resist and obediently nodded their heads.

They knew that with their abilities, they wouldn't be able to walk for long. If the two of them followed along, it would implicate their older brother and sister. They might as well obediently stay at home and wait for them to return.

Seeing the two little fellows nod their heads so sensibly, Li Qingling laughed and rubbed their heads, praising them a little.

"Old man, just stay at home with the two little guys and we'll go get the food." Li Qingling turned his head and saw the old man walking towards the study room, so she took the lead to speak first.

The old man looked at Li Qingling with suspicion, asking her to gather some food?

"The imperial government has opened up a store to store the food. The commoners can go to the town and each take five barrels of food. We plan to go and get some back."

After the old man heard this, he nodded and told them to go as they pleased. He would look after the two little fellows at home.

With the old man here, Li Qingling was completely at ease. She found five cloth bags, one for each of them, and let them take them all, before she headed towards the town.

On the way to town, I saw all those thin, yellow faces and ragged clothes.

As one could well imagine, just how many people had been displaced and their wives scattered in this disaster.

A natural disaster was a disaster that humans could not contend against.

When he and his sister were still not taken in by Xiao Lingjie, he would go out every day to look for food.

However, there were a lot of people who had the same thoughts as him. They often had to be beaten to the point of bleeding just to get something to eat. Only then would they be able to get a little something.

If not for meeting Xiao Lingjie and the others, he would have died a long time ago.

Xiao Lingjie was his savior, her savior. He would forever remember this favor in her heart.

"Xiao Lingjie, thank you." Liu Zhiyan suddenly ran in front of Li Qingling and said.

Li Qingling was completely stunned by his actions and reacted. He slapped his head and smiled as he said, "Why are you thanking me all of a sudden? Have you gone stupid? "

Liu Zhiyan looked at Li Qingling with a serious face, and said very seriously, "Xiao Lingjie, if it wasn't for your foresight, we would have also gone to other places to escape like these people, without food or drink, I don't know if we would have survived." Seeing these thin and yellow skinned people, he was deeply shocked in his heart. He also completely knew how good their life in Matsuyama was, "The reason we can have this day is truly because of you."

"That's right, Xiao Lingjie. I will never forget your great kindness." After learning from Liu Zhimo for a while, Big River could also learn to read and write.

Li Qingling looked at the two pairs of sincere eyes and felt warmth in her heart.

"I also want to thank you for being here. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't be here right now." She smiled and said, "We are a family, it is only right for us to support each other."

If the whole family had split up so clearly, then they wouldn't have been able to walk this far without any grudges.

The few of them looked at each other and laughed. The sadness in their hearts also disappeared.

The group of people chatted and laughed for almost four hours before they finally reached the town.

Once they entered the town, without asking anyone, they knew where to gather the food when they saw the long line.

In order to make sure there were no mistakes, Li Qingling asked an aunt in a queue to collect food.

The aunt glanced at Li Qingling and nodded dumbly.

Li Qingling said thanks and turned his head to wave towards Liu Zhimo and the others, asking them to line up.

Not long after they had lined up, another person came from behind. It was Big River's parents.

Big River originally didn't see them. It was because Big River's father recognized Big River, so he called out to him before turning around to see them.

"Big River, are you here to pick up food as well?" Big River's father saw that Big River was staring at him, so he didn't say anything, so he could only ask.

Looking at the skinny and slightly hunched man in front of him, his heart did not have the slightest ripple. It was as if he was treating a stranger, and he would not feel any heartache at all.

"Hmm …"

He replied indifferently, but didn't have anything else to say to his father.

When he and his stepmother left him with his sister, he swore in his heart that from then on, he would no longer be Li Da He's father.

No father would abandon his own children.

He was not fit to be his father.

"Then come and stand with us. After you get the food, you can put it together." The stepmother saw that the river was clean and looked at her son, who looked like a beggar, and said angrily, "Looks like you've been doing well these past few months?" This is all thanks to me and your dad for not bringing you guys to suffer. "

Escaping these past few months had really been a nightmare for her in this life. She almost thought that she would die in a foreign land and wouldn't be able to come back!

She had initially thought that the two bastards in her family had starved to death without food, but she hadn't thought that they were living such a good life. They didn't seem to be starving at all.

"Yes, I shall forever remember this great favor." Big River clenched his fist tightly, but he still had a smile on his face as he spoke.

If Li Qingfeng and Liu Zhimo had not held his fist, he would not have been able to resist and pounced towards the shameless woman and hit her.

The stepmother proudly raised her chin. "Of course …" With that, he looked around, but did not see Brook's figure, causing him to immediately frown, and questioned, "Where's that stinking girl Brook, why is there no trace of her figure? Was she lazy? She won't be able to eat in the future without getting her rice. "

That was five meters!

Five cubes of rice was now very precious to their family.

Forget about Big River, even Li Qingling and the others did not look good.

Li Qingling looked at the river and patted his shoulder. If he couldn't hold on anymore, they would help him.

Da He understood what Li Qingling meant. He twitched his mouth and shook his head at her, indicating that he could do it by himself.

"She really doesn't need to eat anymore." Big River calmly looked at his stepmother before moving on to his father, "Father, do you understand what I'm saying?"

Being stared at by the river so calmly, the river's father felt a little scared and asked stutteringly, "What is the meaning of this?"

Big River continued to stare at his father, and said a little cruelly: "What you mean is, big sister … … "Dead …" He smiled. "Is this what you want?"
