Chapter 309 309 Giving Porridge


A few bonfires were set up outside the city on the outskirts of Beijing, and rice and water were put into a large pot to cook. After a while, the unique aroma of rice porridge wafted out.

Refugees who could not keep up with nutrition and had traveled long distances dragged their exhausted bodies to wait in line. The white porcelain bowl with a corner missing in their hands became all their belongings.

"So pitiful."

Qu Shaoya looked pitiful and felt heavy, "Was the cold wave really such a big impact?"

"Yes, last year Most of the food planted in winter is frozen to death. At the end of April, most farmers grow soybeans, which are not worth much.”

The harvest is very little, and there is no way to satisfy one's hunger.

Cheng Xi whispered, "Lin'an Mansion is better to the south. It is difficult for the people in the north to have a bite of food."

Compared with the worries of Jiang Yuyao and others, Shen Xingqi just Sighing, during the few months of the snowstorm, I was used to seeing all kinds of monsters and monsters. Compared with the refugees outside Shenjia Village, these things in front of me can only be regarded as child's play.

“If you want to help these refugees, you can only wait and see what measures the court takes.”

Qu Shaoya and the others were silent. They also knew that giving porridge was not a long-term solution, and giving food to people was not a long-term solution. In fact, there are not many people like Porridge who are really willing to think about the people.

Several people finally went out together, but their hearts were extremely heavy.

Cheng Xi looked at the porridge shacks on both sides of the city gate with some emotion, and his eyes fell on one of them and paused for a moment.

"Ya'er, someone from the Wu'an Marquis Mansion is also here?"

"Yes, my mother felt sorry for the refugees' hard work and came here in person with the housekeeper."

said After getting up from home, Qu Shaoya became a little more interested, "Well, that's right there!"

So that luxuriously dressed woman is Mrs. Wu Anhou?

The other party seemed to have seen a few of them. He whispered a few words to the housekeeper beside him, and came here with the maid.

"Ya'er?"

"Mother."

Mrs. Wu'anhou is an iconic beauty. She is in her thirties and looks very young. Her facial features are smooth and smooth. There are three or four similarities between the mirror brothers and sisters. Jiang Yuyao and Qin Nan presented her with gifts.

"There is no need for these false etiquette outside. Why are you here? It's noisy here as long as I'm here. Do you know if you can go back quickly?"

"I understand, mother."

After Mrs. Wu Anhou finished teaching her daughter, her eyes paused on Cheng Xi and the two of them, "Are these the new Mrs. Shen and the second lady of the Shen family you have met?"

"Yes, mother, these are Sister Cheng and Xing Sister Qi.”

Cheng Xi pulled Shen Xingqi and leaned over slightly, "Mrs. Wu'anhou."

"It's all a sign. My Ya'er has a bit of a naughty temper. Don't be surprised."

"Mrs. Just kidding, Miss Qu usually takes good care of us."

Mrs. Wu Anhou nodded, took her daughter and gave some instructions, and soon took the maid back to the soup kitchen to continue her work.

Qu Shaoya was in a better mood. After staying at the city gate for a while, he knew that he should not stay here for a long time, so he returned to the city.

Refugees are unable to enter the capital and now they can only stay outside the city. Although there are a few female relatives in the main street of the city, there are usually many people there, not to mention enthusiastic students who come to join in the fun.

Cheng Xidao said, "Mrs. Wu'an Hou is so kind-hearted that she came to deliver porridge herself."

"My mother is kind-hearted and often goes to the temple to burn incense. In the past few days, she has been vegetarian to serve the people. Praying for blessings.”

“Miss Qu is so lucky.”

Qu Shaoya smiled with a bit of pride on her face.

Cheng Xi looked at her with a smile and suppressed the doubts in his heart.

Why did she feel that Mrs. Wu Anhou was affectionate towards her daughter, but with a smile that didn't reach her eyes?
