Fortunately, even though Beanie had fainted, he still had some consciousness.
As soon as the sweet porridge touched his tongue, he swallowed it immediately and smacked his mouth subconsciously.
The bowl of porridge was soon finished. Although Beanie still had not woken up, his face was gradually turning red.
The Shi Tou heaved a sigh of relief and explained, “I didn’t jump the queue. When they were giving out the porridge, no one else dared to go. It was my first time. The soldier who distributed the porridge praised me for being bold and told me to look for him if I needed anything in the future.
Just now, I went to tell him that my younger brother fainted from hunger and begged him to give me a bowl of porridge. He just gave it to me without saying anything.”
Uncle Cai was touched and said, “He’s really a good person! I must go and thank him properly!’
As he spoke, he handed Beanie to another clansman and was about to walk forward.
“Fifth Grandpa, there’s no need. Take care of Beanie first. He’s busy, and it’s not good to disturb him now. I’ve just thanked him, and I’ve decided to follow him from now on. I’ll repay him and listen to him!”
Uncle Cai’s eyes were red as he nodded, “Thank you, Shi Tou!”
“Shi Tou,” the other clansmen said hurriedly, “you must follow that Lord and do a good job. He’s our benefactor.”
Shi Tou quickly nodded. “Don’t worry, Grandpas and Uncles. I’ll definitely listen to my benefactor!”
They were originally from a village under Tan City, the city that was previously conquered by the Wei army. However, when the war broke out, all the young and strong men of their families were captured to work as laborers, and the women, children, and elderly were also captured to fill the city.
This group of people had all come from different families, and it was not easy for them to escape and hide. It was only when they heard that Tan City had been breached that they carefully came out to find their families.
However, in the era of war, corpses were everywhere. Where could they find them?
So, although they were sad, they still accepted this fact.
At this moment, they met the Wei army who had occupied Tan City. They thought that their lives as humans would end here, but they did not expect that the Wei army did not kill them or rob them. They just ignored them.
Since they could not survive in the city, they decided to go deep into the mountains.
Although it was not easy to survive in the deep mountains, at least they could find something to eat.
They had thought that they would starve to death or die of illness in the mountains for the rest of their lives, but they did not expect that the Wei army would actually give them porridge so that they could eat such good porridge in their lifetime.
If they could have a few more days of porridge, they would be willing to die.
Within the city walls of Ling City, the people who were trapped inside were
talking about the Wei army giving out porridge outside.
Ever since the Wei army broke into Tan City, Ling City had been locked up and no one could enter or leave, causing everyone to be in a state of panic.
However, it wasn’t as if they did not know about the news from the outside.
They were the first to know about the news of the Wei army giving out porridge. At that time, the entire Ling City was discussing this matter. “Do you think the Wei army is plotting something by giving out porridge?” 𝒃𝙚𝙙𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡.𝙘𝙤𝙢
“They are doing it to win over the People’s hearts. After all, if Dongyue is captured, we will become the people of Great Wei. Great Wei doesn’t want to cause any more trouble, so winning over the People’s hearts is necessary.”
“I really want to go out and eat porridge. Ever since I was locked up here, the prices of goods have soared. My savings are going to be gone soon. If they don’t open the city gate, we’re finished anyway..”
