Chapter 515: Too much cold wind blows, but you will get cold
Everyone came to the door of Lin Mansion. Lin Xiaofan happened to bump into Xiaoqing who was about to go out. He hurriedly pulled him over to help run errands:
"Xiaoqing, go ahead and ask them to prepare meals for a hundred people."
Hearing this, Xiaoqing rolled his eyes, but still returned to help.
After the incident in Beijing, her view of Lin Xiaofan changed a bit, at least she no longer regarded Lin Xiaofan as her enemy as before.
But she still only obeyed Chen Xue's orders. She was also like this when she was in the Chen family before.
Most of these refugees are children, so preparing meals for a hundred people should be enough.
Thinking about it, Lin Xiaofan looked at the people outside the door and said:
"Come in, everyone, and I will arrange a place for you to stay."
Seeing this, everyone's faces once again showed disbelief.
You heard that right.
Mr. Champion Hou actually let them enter the mansion?
He lowered his head and looked at his body. His tattered clothes were covered in dust. He hadn't taken a shower for a long time, and a black ball would appear on his body even if he picked it up casually.
Let’s look at Lord Champion Hou’s mansion. It has a high-quality mahogany gate and a bluestone-paved path lined with colorful flowers and plants. They usually don't dare to take another look at the magnificent house inside.
If they go in, they won't dirty the Lin Mansion, right?
"You are still stunned, come in quickly. There is too much cold wind, but you will get cold."
Lin Xiaofan saw that they were not moving, and understood their restraint, and the smile on his face became kinder. He did the same to the people of Degao Town.
This time, the warriors and businessmen on the side did not speak.
Even if Lin Xiaofan agreed to let the refugees enter the Lin Mansion, they still felt awkward.
Finally, Mrs. Liu gritted her teeth and saluted:
"Thank you, sir."
After saying that, she followed Lin Xiaofan in first.
The child behind him had a high fever, and the winter wind was particularly biting.
If you don't find a shelter from the wind earlier, your life may be in danger.
It was also because of this that she had the courage to be the first to step into the Lin Mansion.
Seeing this, everyone from the big businessman behind him hurriedly followed.
There happened to be a large empty house in Lin Xiaofan's house, which used to be the place where the guards slept. Later, because it was not spacious, Lin Xiaofan rebuilt several houses as dormitories for the guards, and this place became vacant.
After most people entered the room, they almost huddled up, their eyes peeking around from time to time, and their whole body showed embarrassment. There were only two children of Mrs. Liu, a boy and a girl. They seemed not to be afraid of strangers, and their big eyes looked at the surrounding environment with dazzling eyes.
Since there was not enough room to sit in the room, Mrs. Liu chose to stand after placing the three children.
"Mom, after coming here, can we have enough to eat?"
The little girl said with her big eyes flashing.
After hearing this, Sister-in-law Liu felt a little more distressed on her face. She knelt down and wiped the ashes on the faces of the two children with her hands, and then wiped them on their clothes:
"Xing'er, Yue'er, be obedient."
She didn't make a promise, after all, she didn't know what the future would bring.
The little boy's name is Liu Xing, and the little girl's name is Liu Yue. When the two children were born, Mrs. Liu's husband was drafted into the army, and they were named after her.
Both children, like Mrs. Liu, have big eyes. Although they are exposed to wind and sun all year round, their skin is not dark, but a healthy wheat color.
"Mom, let's obey."
The little boy nodded heavily with a serious expression, as if he was swearing, which made Mrs. Liu couldn't help laughing.
The two children didn't know what was going on, so they just laughed together.
They know how much effort their mother spent raising them. Because of this, they have been very obedient since childhood.
As soon as they could walk, the two began to help with housework.
At that time, my father would send some money every year. Although the family was not well off, they could still live a good life.
Later, during my father's battle with Daliang, the situation at home became worse year by year. Almost all valuable things were sold.
They decided to help with the farm work. Even at this age, it is difficult to hold a hoe.
In this way, the three of them spent another two years. It was not until a few days ago that Liu Er's wife took them to work when life became unbearable.
They didn't know what the official position of Champion Hou was, they only knew that this man was very powerful and he was willing to help them. It was also because of this that the little girl just asked if she could have enough to eat.
Not long after, steaming fish soup and rice were brought to the table.
The fish soup was made with refined salt, and Lin's cooks were very skilled. In an instant, the aroma spread throughout the house.
"Gulu gulu."
Many people's stomachs growled.
Along the way, they ate mostly dry and hard food to satisfy their hunger. Many times, we don’t even have enough to eat. Now when I smell the aroma of fish soup, I swallow my saliva.
But, can they eat such good rice and fish soup?
"Eat it while it's hot, it's all made for you."
The slave said.
Lin Xiaofan felt that being in the room might put too much pressure on them, so he left first.
After a long time, some of them started to use chopsticks, and then more and more people started to use chopsticks.
The rice and fish soup impacted their taste buds, and everyone choked up while eating.
As long as they could remember, they had never eaten such fragrant rice. Such a delicious fish soup is a fantasy for them.
Thinking that they were now in the Marquis's residence, the champion Marquis showed no airs to them, and they were only moved.
Coming all the way to work was the most correct decision they made. At this time, they even had the urge to go back to the village, tell the neighbors about the good news, and let the neighbors come to work.
"Ahem...ahem."
Liu Yue suddenly coughed. I ate too fast just now and accidentally choked it in my nose.
Seeing this, Mrs. Liu hurriedly patted Liu Yue on the back, and Liu Xing also came to help. It took a while for Liu Yue to recover.
"Eat slowly, don't choke."
Sister-in-law Liu spoke, but her heart was full of distress, and tears flowed down unconsciously.
The two children, Liu Xing and Liu Yue, had never eaten fragrant white rice and such delicious fish soup for so long, which made them miserable.
To be honest, she has never had such a good meal since she was a child. Thinking about it, she looked out the door and could faintly see the champion's back chatting with someone, and her heart was filled with gratitude.
After finishing the meal, Lin Xiaofan went in and took a look. Whether it was rice or fish soup, he had eaten everything completely, with nothing left.
However, he did not continue to serve food to everyone. Although some of these people did not feel full yet, they had been hungry for who knows how long they had been coming. If you eat too much in one bite, you may burst your stomach.
