Chapter 387 One for Food and One for Warmth
Refugees cannot enter the city, so they can only find a place to settle in the suburbs.

There is a group of refugees who settled down near the 'Scholarly Academy'.

Sima Ao and Jiang Min saw that these refugees were really pitiful, so they brought porridge from the college's students' dormitory to these refugees.

Houwa was sharing the porridge and recognized the aunt who was fleeing famine with her companions.

"Ma'am, why is it you!"

The monkey baby survived because of the help of this aunt.On the way to flee famine, Houwa and Da Niang got separated.

"Monkey boy! You are not dead, are you still alive?"

When the two met, they hugged each other with mixed feelings of sadness and joy.

Houwa looked behind the aunt and asked: "Auntie, Gouwa, Yamei and uncle, what about them?"

"Uncle, Gouwa, and some fleeing refugees were trampled to death by soldiers and horses from both sides when they passed the border of the battlefield." Lung crying.

When the auntie calmed down, Houwa asked again: "What about Yamei?"

Yamei is a good friend that Houwa met while fleeing famine, and she is also a poor child!

"Isn't Yamei with you?" the aunt asked Houwa.

"No?" Houwa replied.

"Then it's hopeless!" the aunt sighed sadly.

Refugees fleeing famine either died of hunger or cold, or died of illness. A little girl was lost during the famine, and it must have been a disaster.

Sima Ao suggested to the refugees fleeing famine: "Now that there is chaos everywhere, it is difficult to survive anywhere, so why not stay here to open up wasteland and farm!"

In fact, with the help of the Sima family, the refugees fleeing famine also had the idea of ​​staying.

Some of the remaining refugees followed Sima and his wife to open up wasteland and farm.

Refugees who don't want to stay continue to embark on the road of fleeing famine.

Under the leadership of Sima Ao, the refugees turned the rolling hills with only one college into scattered mountain villages.

Sima Ao became the most respected and most dependable person in the village.

Sima and his wife were invited to preside over all the village's seal meetings and harvest festivals; Sima Ao was also invited to judge any incidents or disputes in the village. (These are all for later.)
........................

The sound of rumbling carriages came from down the mountain.

Jiang Min and Sima Ao came to the gate of the academy, looking down the mountain, it was Jiang Bin driving the carriage up.

Due to the heavy cargo in the carriage, the horse was a little weak when going uphill, and the carriage almost slipped.Fortunately, the horse was strong enough, with one push, the car drove up!
Phew, the carriage stopped at the door.

Sima Ao and Jiang Min went up to meet them, looked at the bags of goods on the car, and asked, "What is this?"

"This is the rice I sent you." Jiang Bin replied.

Sima Ao and Jiang Min looked at each other stupidly, asking each other, is it you who called Maimi?

Seeing Jiang Bin, he smiled and said, "I know you must be short of food, so I brought you rice."

In order to prevent refugees from flooding into the city, Liu Taishou ordered all the cities to only leave and not enter.If people in the city want to go out of the city to do business or purchase, they must have a token to go out of the city.

Jiang Bin is in the business of selling and buying, so it is naturally easy to get the exit token.

Jiang Bin thought that Sima Ao would need a lot of food to open the academy, and he couldn't go to the city now, so he sent rice to Sima Ao.

Naturally, there are many people who want to eat at the school, and there are refugees who need relief, but Sima Ao really needs food.

Sima Ao patted Jiang Bin's shoulder gratefully, and invited Jiang Bin to sit in the academy.

Sima Ao confessed to Xiaopang, unloaded the rice in the carriage, and entered the academy with Jiang Bin.

uncle!

'Xiao Jinlian' ran over excitedly when she saw her uncle coming.

"Long time no see, my 'Little Golden Lotus' has grown taller and more beautiful!"

Jiang Bin loved this eloquent cousin very much, and hugged 'Xiao Jinlian' with one hand.

is that true?

is that true?

I'm going to grow up!
Little Jinlian longed to grow up quickly, so she jumped out of her uncle's embrace excitedly, ran under a tree, and measured her height.

No!

Realizing that her uncle was talking nonsense and was just teasing herself, Xiao Jinlian pouted in disappointment and gave her uncle a blank look.

Sima Ao originally wanted to keep Jiang Bin for dinner, but Jiang Bin teased "Xiao Jinlian" for a while, and was about to return to the city in a hurry.

As soon as Jiang Bin's carriage left, Jingjing came driving the carriage!

Jingjing's carriage was also full of goods, which looked like quilts.

"Sister Jingjing, why are you here when you have time?" Jiang Min asked.

"Oh, it's almost winter, I bought some quilts and sent them to you." Jingjing smiled.

One gave food, the other warm, Jiang Min and Sima Ao looked at each other stupidly, they didn't know what to say, what kind of words of thanks to express their inner gratitude.

Emotional expression does not have to be through deep language, or gorgeous words.In fact, eyes are the best way for two people to communicate with each other.

As the saying goes, a glance of affection is worth a thousand words.

Sima Ao looked at Jingjing affectionately, his thanks were all in this affectionate glance.

Jingjing (Dongfang Yuer) also looked back at Sima Ao affectionately.

"Godmother, you're here too! Uncle just left."

Jingjing decided not to marry in her life, so she adopted 'Xiao Jinlian' as her goddaughter.

"Oh really? Actually, the godmother saw your uncle on the way here." Jingjing came back to her senses and hugged 'Little Golden Lotus'.

Sima Ao asked Xiaopang to take off the quilt, and entered the academy with his wife Jiang Min and Jingjing.

Jingjing chatted with Jiang Min and Sima Ao for a while, then hurried back to the city!
Both Jiang Bin and Jingjing were in a hurry to go back to the city. There was a set time for leaving the city, and if they exceeded the set time, they would not be allowed to enter the city.

.....................

Ten years later

Xiao Jinlian (Sima Lian), Pang Wa, Li Changshou, and Hou Wa have all grown up.

Xiao Jinlian looks slim, but she has an aggressive and martial personality. To put it harshly, she has a boyish personality.

It caused Sima Ao a lot of headaches, and he even "disliked" this daughter a little bit.

The fat girl who grew up is still the same fat girl, diligent, able to take care of, giving people a kind of honest feeling, maybe as the boss of the family!
When Li Changshou grew up, he was not as talented in painting as his successor father (Li Fulai), but he also had bad ideas.

Houwa is the oldest among the three. He was born in a poor family, and lost his father and mother when he was young, so he understands things at a very young age.

After growing up, the monkey baby does not have the same appearance as when he was a child. It seems to have transformed. Under the handsome appearance, there is a wise and steady heart. He is the student Sima Ao admires the most.

Not knowing what happened, the village chief rushed over with a worried look on his face, and invited Sima Ao and Jiang Min to the village.

Sima Ao is the most credible in the village, as long as Sima Ao speaks, the villagers have to listen.

Maybe something really happened, Sima Ao and Jiang Min followed the village head out.

When Sima Ao went out, he told his daughter Sima Lian, students Li Changshou, Fat Ya, and Houwa to be optimistic about the college and take good care of their younger brothers and sisters.

Although Houwa came to the academy late, he is the oldest, and everyone in the academy will call him Senior Brother.This assignment task, let him divide.

Houwa was in charge of substitute class (taking classes instead of Sima Ao), Li Changshou carried water from the mountain, Sima Lian and Fat Ya were in charge of the kitchen, cooking lunch for the juniors.

"Why, you are the substitute every time, and I carry the water every time?" Li Changshou disagreed with Houwa's assignment.

"Exactly, why do we always have to cook?" Sima Lian and Fat Ya disagreed.
