This fire burned for a full four hours. After it was finished, Feng Yu Heng distributed the disinfectant that she had prepared, and the soldiers desperately sprayed it on the pile of ash. Everyone's emotions calmed down a little, and they all kowtowed three times to the cremated corpse pit then followed Xuan Tianming and the others back to their tents.
Once everyone returned, Xuan Tiange began to order the soldiers to distribute the congee. It was still plain congee and side dishes, but there was a lot of rice, so the congee was very thick. Everyone ate with relish.
Feng Yu Heng and Xuan Tianming also hid in the sleeping tent to eat. Feng Yu Heng secretly took out a box of canned luncheon meat from her space and gave it to Xuan Tianming to eat. As a result, they pushed the canned food to each other. Even though Feng Yu Heng told him that there was more in her sleeve, he still insisted that she eat it first.
Feng Yu Heng helplessly took a bite, but she couldn't taste anything at all. She sighed and put down her chopsticks then helplessly asked Xuan Tianming: "Is it that you also can't eat it?"
Xuan Tianming smiled bitterly, but he didn't put down his chopsticks. He only told Feng Yu Heng: "Even if you can't eat it, you still have to eat it. We have to maintain our physical strength. At the very least, we have to ensure that we have strength. This way, we can help even more people."
Feng Yu Heng nodded and picked up her chopsticks again. She picked up her bowl and continued to eat, but her mind was thinking about something. Not long after, she spoke again: "We don't have enough manpower. We can't always let Tiange cook. I originally wanted to transfer some maidservants from the city to help, but we don't have enough rain tents to add manpower for no reason. Why don't we pick some women with better physical fitness from the refugees and ask them if they're willing to help? We can pay them some money and they can eat better here. "
Xuan Tianming had no objections to this and only said, "You can make the decision for this kind of thing. I'll do as you say."
Feng Yu Heng said again, "Then I'll ask Wang Chuan and Huang Quan to choose. Those who are good at cooking will be given priority. Those who know how to sew are also fine. Even if they don't know how to do anything, they can at least carry a plate." When Xuan Tianhua came last night, he had transported a few large carts of bowls, plates and spoons from the capital, solving a large problem for Xuan Tiange. Huang Quan had even laughed at her, saying that in the end, Princess Wuyang was still a princess. In the past, this kind of thing was always considered by the servants. She could get rice, but she forgot to prepare a bowl and a plate.
Just as he was thinking, Wang Chuan lifted the curtain and walked in with a few people behind him. They turned around and saw Xiang Rong, Fung Tian Yu and Ren Xi Feng.
A look of joy appeared on Feng Yu Heng's face, as she quickly stood up and asked: "Have the clothes been delivered?"
Ren Xi Feng took the initiative to step forward. She first saluted to Xuan Tianming before saying: "They've all been delivered. This time, it's all thanks to Xiang Rong. If it was not for her coming up with the idea, perhaps this task would not have been completed well."
Feng Yuheng looked at Xiangrong in confusion. That girl lowered her head with a red face and refused to say anything. Instead, it was Fung Tianyu who said happily: "In the beginning, we all went home to look for our own old clothes, but Ah-Heng, you know, even if our clothes are old, they are made of expensive materials. If there is not gauze hanging on them, there is a pendant hanging on them. It is too noisy, how could it be suitable for the citizens to wear. Even the madams and young misses that we know are mostly the same. Later on, Xiang Rong said that it would be better for us to go buy clothes from normal families. After all, they live in their own homes that do not leak rain. In this sort of weather, they can't go out. Even if they don't have any clothes to wear, they can still make some. Thus we first went to a cloth shop and bought a large amount of cloth. We then brought some money and went from house to house to explain this matter. The citizens were all very understanding. For the majority of them, we used cloth to exchange for all the clothes that they could bring out. There were also some that were truly poor, and we even left some money for them. In addition to this, we also took some clothes from the servants of the large families. Just like that, we filled ten carriages and sent them all out. "
Ren Xi Feng said: "I fear that this is still not enough. You can use it for now. We'll go and get more later. I have already contacted all of the tailors in the capital to begin making clothes. These refugees have not been here for just a day or two. Even if the rain stops, they still have nowhere to go. It would be best to prepare some more clothes. "
Feng Yu Heng heard this and finally let out a sigh of relief. Although the tents had been set up over the past two days, and there was food to eat, there was no way to change the clothes. The people were still wearing the wet, dirty and tattered clothes. Many people had caught colds and fevers, and she could not treat them. Her hands were nearly sore from pulling medicine out of her space every day.
She said to Wang Chuan: "Go have some soldiers help distribute the clothes. Distribute them according to each person's size. Don't waste any." She then said to Xiang Rong's group: "You will also need to work hard. Distribute them together! We truly do not have enough people on our side. We were just thinking of going back and choosing some of the healthy refugees to help. "
Xiang Rong quickly said: "Second sister, how about I stay behind."
She shook her head, "No, your body is weak. If things go wrong, you might not be able to help. Instead, you might fall sick, which would be even more of a hindrance. Either way, we will need to continue collecting clothes. The three of you will remain in the city. If there is anything that I need, there will be someone to help me. "
Ren Xi Feng nodded and said: "That's right. The city cannot be left without someone to take care of it. Heng Rong, don't worry. We will definitely do our best when it comes to clothes. If there is anything that you need, just send someone to look for us. Over the past few days, Tian Yu and I have been living in the county princess' manor. Your home has already been occupied by us. "
She laughed, "I am all too eager for you to occupy it every day. Like this, my county princess' manor will be a bit more lively. Quickly go. "She gently pushed the group," After distributing the clothes, quickly go back. Wear more when moving about outside. Be careful not to catch a cold. "
The group did not remain for long, as Wang Chuan led the soldiers to distribute the clothes. Feng Yu Heng and Xuan Tianming turned around and continued to eat. After eating a few bites, she recalled something, thus she leaned forward and quietly said to Xuan Tianming: "There are eggs in Qian Kun's sleeve. There is an inexhaustible supply. In a while, have some people stand guard outside the tent. Nobody is allowed to enter. I will get some eggs from inside the tent, and you will personally deliver them to the outside of the tent. Then have the soldiers bring them to Tian Ge's side to cook. Once they're cooked, distribute them to the refugees. Everyone will have one. For the children and elderly, give one more. "
Xuan Tianming was a little stunned, "There are more than ten thousand refugees outside. Can you bring out that many eggs?"
Feng Yu Heng blinked, and a sly look appeared on her face, "I can! Of course I can! It's not just the eggs. The water used to make the congee over the past few days, did you really think that it came from the well? Did you really think that the water you drank was from the well? "
Xuan Tianming was stunned again. He immediately recalled that when they were refining steel in Xu Tian Cave, she also took out bottles after bottles of what was it called … Oh, pure water. She also took out pure water. "Could it be that the congee over the past few days has been boiled with pure water?" He was a little nervous. "Cooking requires a lot of water, and there are so many people who need to eat. How did you bring them out? Are you tired? Have you been discovered? "
Feng Yu Heng shook his arm and said with a smile, "No, I'm not tired. The water I took out wasn't pure water. I just asked people to bring in a few empty buckets, then I connected a rubber pipe to the tap inside Qian Kun's sleeve. It's raining so heavily outside, so the water in the well can't be drunk. These past few days, I've been giving everyone water to drink from the well. It's just that there's no way to take care of what the refugees need to drink every day. Those bottles are already filled, so I really can't take them out for so many people to drink. "
Xuan Tianming did not really understand what a tap was, much less understand the meaning of tap water, but his ability to understand was still very strong. He could more or less understand that Feng Yu Heng was using a pipe to draw clean water out of her Qian Kun's sleeve, placing it in buckets. Then the soldiers would carry it out. He relaxed. It was fine as long as his wife was not tired.
He finished the last mouthful of rice and stood up to have the servants take away the bowls and chopsticks. Only then did he say: "Alright, then we'll take out the eggs."
Thus on this day, all of the medical work was handed over to Ghost Doctor Song Kang. She began to take out the eggs in the sleeping tent. After taking out a few, she would bring them to Xuan Tian Ge to cook. In the beginning, the progress was a little slow, but as time went on, the more that side cooked, the faster she took them out. Xuan Tianming was willing to be the porter, taking one trip after another to transport them out.
More than ten thousand eggs were dug out for an entire day. When the people outside said that there was enough, Feng Yu Heng felt that her wrists were about to break.
Xuan Tianming quickly came over to help her massage her wrists, but in reality, he had been transporting eggs for an entire day and was also very tired. But the two were very happy. Feng Yu Heng said: "I still have candies here. Those are easier to take out, and there's no need to cook them. We'll distribute candies to the refugees tomorrow. In any case, they'll be able to replenish some of their energy."
Xuan Tian Ming stared at her and did not speak for a long time. He just held her wrists with both hands and rubbed them, but gradually, who knew who took the initiative, but the two's foreheads were pressed together.
Feng Yu Heng giggled, saying: "Xuan Tianming, your legs are trembling."
He said: "Nonsense, walking back and forth for a short distance without stopping for an entire day. Try it, it's definitely more tiring than leading soldiers to the battlefield." Although he said that, he still rubbed her head and said: "I'm fine. It's nothing for a man to be tired. It's just that it's been hard on you. Heng Heng, I won't ask what's going on with your Heaven and Earth Sleeve, but this matter is between you and me. You absolutely cannot let a third person know about it. Otherwise, there will definitely be more people who want to get their hands on you than those who want to get their hands on the steel. "
How could she not understand this logic, so she quickly nodded: "Don't worry, only the heavens and earth know. Only you and I know. I won't even let Seventh Brother know about it."
At the mention of Xuan Tianhua, the person in front of her was suddenly startled. He then sighed softly and did not say anything else.
Feng Yu Heng knew his intentions, but did not explain further. She only said to him: "Seventh Brother is righteous, and I'm also grateful for it. That's all."
He laughed in spite of himself: "I've never been calculative about this. If not, he wouldn't be Seventh Brother. In this world, if there's anyone other than you that I can confide in, it's only Xuan Tianhua. " After saying that, he took the initiative to change the topic, no longer dwelling on this matter. He told Feng Yu Heng: "About these eggs, I've already told the outside that they were sent by the shadow guards. You don't have to worry."
"En." She nodded, then stood up: "I haven't been to the clinic for a day. I have to go take a look."
Xuan Tianming frowned: "You're only focused on getting eggs for others to eat. You haven't even eaten dinner."
Just as he was about to pull his wife to eat, there were hurried footsteps outside the clinic. Then, Huang Quan's voice sounded: "Miss, quickly go to the clinic to take a look!"
