Cannon Fodder Just Wants to Farm (MTL)

Chapter 91: New Life

The county did not tell lies, and the steaming porridge will be ready in a while. Although there was only half a bowl, it was so soft, glutinous and sweet that these victims were reluctant to swallow it after one bite.

However, the aroma of the food was so tempting that few people could resist the temptation. After eating half a bowl of porridge, having something to eat in a warm room felt like a dream.

These people were so nervous along the way that they started to have a fever as soon as they relaxed.

Late at night, half of the doctors in the county came over. I boiled medicine and gave it to them, and there were relatives and friends around to take care of them.

The government officials also helped carry medicine.

They were busy all night, and the county magistrate stayed with them.

He Zifeng was a man who could get things done, so he told the county magistrate: "There are five hundred and sixty people coming this time!" including adults and children. More than 80 of them are seriously ill, and doctors are using various methods to treat them.

These people have not taken in water or rice for many days, and their bodies are already very weak.

The county magistrate also entered some rooms just now and felt uncomfortable looking at the victims.

The county magistrate said: "Their clothes are too shabby. Not only can they not protect themselves from the cold, but they can't even cover themselves up. But the county can't provide any more money. Can you think of other ways?" The county's homespun cloth They were all used to make cotton-padded jackets.

After the snowstorm, the price of fabrics skyrocketed. It's obviously not cost-effective to buy.

He Zifeng said: "Let's see if we can go to those rich people's homes to beg for alms." These days, the rich are still singing and dancing, while the poor starve to death. This is an unfair world!

Zhu Captou said: "I will take care of this matter." He was very familiar with these people in the county. As long as he asks, it's okay to ask for some old clothes that he doesn't wear anymore.

He Zifeng said: "I'll talk to the stewards later!" Those in charge of government affairs have many people, so you can ask everyone if they have any clothes they don't want to wear and send them out to do some good deeds.

There will be people who are willing.

When the county magistrate heard this, he said to the two of them: "It's a blessing that we have you two in the county." The people in his hands were able to handle things, which made him feel much more relaxed.

Zhu Captou said: "Sir, you haven't slept all night. You should go and rest quickly. Your body is the most important thing."

The county magistrate heard what he said and said, "Okay." He was indeed a little sleepy. Said: "You two should also rest. Send half of the people to go back to sleep. The other half will keep watch overnight, and another shift will be changed during the day."

He Zifeng agreed. The county magistrate stayed up all night and couldn't hold it any longer.

Early the next morning. When He Zifeng went over to check, five of the seriously ill people had died, and the rest were getting better.

Those five people were really seriously ill and could not be cured by stone medicine.

The families of the five people who died may have seen too many separations and separations along the way. Accepted easily. Being able to go to a warm place before death is considered a blessing.
