Chapter 150: Secretly Delivering Rice to Refugees
That night, Su Muyao brought Su Lao San to the refugee area.
"Dad, you don't have to say anything. Just stay in this corner and I'll do it myself.
And I have a treasure that can make others invisible to me."
When Su Laosan heard his daughter say this, he knew that the immortal master was going to give his darling some treasure again.
"Okay, with the treasure your master gave you, Daddy will be relieved, but you still have to be careful not to get discovered."
The little milk ball nodded, turned around and approached the place where a large group of refugees were.
Some people don't sleep at all at night and are awake, but they don't think anything of it when they see a little milk ball passing by their territory.
But after all, there were relatively few people who were awake. Among such a large group of people, only one or two families were awake, and the rest were sleeping like dead pigs.
The snoring was so loud that it seemed to rupture one's eardrums.
Su Muyao used her wide sleeves as a cover to take out the bags of food that had been divided up in the space and placed them next to each household's packages.
Once the last family outside has finished setting off the fireworks, everything will be over and you can change your mind and do something different.
Just as Su Muyao took out two bags of rice from the space and placed them in front of the refugee family in front of her which looked to have a very large population.
Suddenly, the teenage boy who was sleeping soundly in the last second, stared at me in the next second.
The boy let out a scream, and the man holding the boy suddenly opened his eyes sharply and looked towards where Su Muyao was.
Su Muyao was so frightened by the clever eyes that she shivered. Without thinking any more, she threw the two bags in her hands to the ground and turned away.
The man tried to chase after him, but was grabbed by his own son by the sleeve.
"Father, the little sister just wanted to quietly put this thing here with us. She shouldn't have any bad intentions. Let's take a look at what's in these two bags first."
The man nodded and opened the bag that the little kid had placed at their feet. Inside was actually white rice.
"My father is actually white rice."
The man nodded, as if in response to what his son said, but he just stared blankly at the place where the little girl left.
The man learned martial arts since he was young, and became a well-known bodyguard when he grew up. Although his job was dangerous, he earned a lot of money every time, so his whole family had no worries about food and drink.
The sudden change happened two years ago.
That time, they were robbed and killed by masked men in black, and the entire grain transport team suffered heavy casualties. It was not until later that they heard that the masked men had found the wrong people and were not looking for them, so these dead brothers had sacrificed their lives in vain.
Although the man saved his life, his entire leg was broken, and from then on no transport team wanted to join him.
In addition, his son had to go to school and life was relatively tight in the next two years. When the family started to flee, most of the money they had was spent on the journey.
These two days, seeing that the food bags are almost empty, the elderly in the family basically have stopped eating for every meal.
He has been worried for the past two days. He took a few coins and entered the city, but he didn't find any help so he left the city again.
They had originally planned to head back after tonight.
We planned to go to the mountains to see if we could survive by eating grass roots and tree bark. If not, even if we all died together, at least the whole family would be buried together.
……
When Su Laosan saw his daughter running to him safely, he finally felt relieved.
"Didn't you say you could become invisible? Why can I still see you?"
Su Muyao scratched her head and thought, if I didn’t say this, would you dare to let me go alone?
Although he thought so in his heart, he comforted his father with words, "You are my family, of course you can see it, but others can't. Okay, let's go."
Su Laosan also knew that this was not the place to talk, so he picked up Su Muyao and carried her into the city.
Now that they have registered their household registration in Beijing, they no longer need to pay extra money to enter the city.
Su Lao San carried Su Muyao and returned home breathlessly. The whole family was still awake.
After seeing the big and small return safely, they went back to their rooms to rest.
A dreamless night
The next morning, the refugee area was in an uproar.
"Boss, look here, why do we have a bag of refined rice in our house?"
After the woman finished speaking, she went to shake the man who was still sleeping soundly on the ground.
The man waved his hands in the air without even opening his eyes as if to shoo away flies.
"Okay, are you still asleep? How could we have refined rice at home?
Are you confused because of hunger? Just sleep more and you won't feel hungry."
After the man finished speaking, he turned over, scratched his butt and fell into a deep sleep again.
The woman rubbed her eyes and found that she was not mistaken, so she hurried to call her mother-in-law.
After the old lady came forward and confirmed that it was indeed white rice, she kicked the man on the butt.
"Son, hurry up and see what this is."
When the man heard it was his mother's voice, he didn't dare to complain. He rubbed his eyes, came to the place they said, opened the things and took a look. It was actually white polished rice.
I'm afraid that only the dignitaries in the capital can afford to eat this thing. Ordinary people have never eaten this thing.
The man twisted his arm and realized he was not dreaming. He howled and sat down on the bag of rice.
"Oh my goodness, where did you get this from? How dare you put it here so openly? Aren't you afraid that someone will steal it?"
The old lady was also scared away by her own son's behavior, so how could she know.
If her daughter-in-law hadn’t called her over just now, she... yes, daughter-in-law.
What he was thinking about was to look directly at his daughter-in-law.
The woman was also confused and quickly came to the old lady and explained, "Mom, I don't know what happened. When I woke up in the morning, I found this extra bag of food. I opened it and found that it was white rice."
When the old lady heard this, she immediately knelt down and looked up at the sky and began to pray, muttering to herself, "Thank you, God, for taking pity on us and giving us food. We will devote ourselves to doing good deeds in the future."
Early in the morning, this scene was played out in front of every household.
Some careful people have noticed that it was not just their family that received the rice, but every refugee household received a bag of rice of the same size.
Some of the good friends have already started talking about the strange things that happened today.
Some old men and women are very superstitious. They think that God must have mercy on them and gave them this refined rice that they have never seen before.
But most people knew in their hearts that this must have been given out by some kind-hearted family while everyone was sleeping.
Among them, only the escort family knew the origin of this rice.
The palace is particularly lively today because tomorrow is the rain-praying ceremony.
The ladies in each palace were choosing clothes and accessories, hoping that the emperor would look at them more during the ceremony.
