Chapter 363 Don’t leave
On the snow-white roof, a thick layer of white snow looks like a thick quilt from a distance.

On the eaves, layers of transparent icicles hang straight down, so beautiful that one forgets the danger.

Liu Qingcao looked up and saw her blurry outline reflected in the icicles.

After only five breaths, she withdrew her gaze and walked away.

In the back room, Aries looked Qiao Hong up and down. This close look made his back teeth chatter.

Qiao Hong was lying on the bed with his eyes closed and his brows furrowed. He seemed to be enduring great pain in his sleep.

Aries closed his lips tightly and stared at the person on the bed without saying a word.

Qiao Hong, who was lying on the bed, was covered in red blisters, with large patches of flesh torn off and blood covering every inch of flesh, looking particularly horrible.

Liu Qingcao pushed the door open carrying a medicine box, and happened to see the infinite fear in Aries' eyes. She curled her lips slightly and walked to the bed.

Aries twisted his neck stiffly, the emotion in his eyes changed instantly, he bowed and saluted, "Girl."

Liu Qingcao waved her hand, motioning him to stand up.

Liu Qingcao took out a medicine bag and two porcelain bottles from the medicine box.

"Go get someone to boil some water, let it cool down, and bring it over. Pour this bottle of medicine into it to clean him."

Liu Qingcao pointed to one of the porcelain bottles and said, "The remaining porcelain bottle contains medicine for him to take. It can temporarily relieve his pain. As for the medicine bag, apply it to him after washing it. Keep the room warm and try not to move him."

After Liu Qingcao finished speaking, he looked at Aries, and Aries nodded in understanding.

After Liu Qingcao finished giving the instructions, he left the back house carrying the medicine box and went to the refugees' snow house outside the house.

Yu Cheng had been waiting in front of the snow house. When he saw Liu Qingcao coming, he quickly trotted over and took the medicine box from her.

"Girl, your feet are slippery, please be careful."

Liu Qingcao nodded slightly but kept walking. Seeing this, Yu Cheng said no more and followed quickly behind her.

The two walked for a distance on the snow and ice, and finally stopped in front of a small snow house. Yu Cheng walked forward quickly, squatted down and shouted inside.

Soon a childish male voice was heard from the igloo, and soon a small head with messy hair popped out from behind the tattered curtain.

When the boy saw that there were two people, he hurriedly lifted the curtain and came out, bowing crookedly to Liu Qingcao.

He knew who the girl in front of him was, who was not much older than him, and he admired her very much.

Liu Qingcao smiled faintly, looked at the boy, and asked slowly, "Are you injured?"

The boy shook his head and said, "Thank you for your concern. They didn't hurt me."

Liu Qingcao looked at him carefully and saw that his face looked normal. She nodded and walked into the snow house.

In the snow house, a little girl of seven or eight years old was lying on a wooden bed with her eyes closed. She was covered with several layers of tattered clothes. Her face was red and she was mumbling from time to time.

Liu Qingcao walked forward and touched the girl's forehead. It was very hot, obviously she had a high fever.

She didn't have time to ask in detail and asked Yu Cheng to bring the medicine box over.

He opened the medicine box and took out a set of medicine and a porcelain bottle.

"Go and boil this medicine and feed it to her." Liu Qingcao handed the medicine bag to Yucheng, then opened the porcelain bottle and fed half a bottle of spiritual spring water to the person on the bed.

Only after Yu Cheng left did Liu Qingcao have time to ask about the girl's situation.

Logically speaking, if someone was not seriously ill and ate the food taken out from her space every day, he should not have such a severe fever. However, the scene of those people bullying the boy earlier gave her the answer.

However, these were just her guesses. If she wanted to know the truth, she had to ask the boy.

"The person on the bed is your sister?" Liu Qingcao looked at the two of them and saw that they looked very different, so he couldn't help but ask another question.

The boy's thin lips were tightly pursed into a line, and his cheeks turned red under Liu Qingcao's gaze. After a while, he timidly raised his head to look at the person on the bed, shaking his head slightly.

"She's not my sister, she's my maid."

"..."

Liu Qingcao blinked, glanced at the boy strangely, and sighed inwardly.

This evil feudal system, look at it, these are just young kids who haven't grown up yet, and they have been ruined by those awful things.

She thought so in her heart, but she couldn't say it out loud. In the feudal environment, how could her personal will compete with that of everyone else?

She is well aware that she does not have the ability to change the overall environment now.

"What are your names?" Liu Qingcao didn't bother and changed the subject.

The boy was relieved when he saw Liu Qingcao stopped asking questions. "My name is Zhou Yilin, and she is Xiao Cui."

"Tell me, why does she have such a severe fever?" Liu Qingcao freed his hand to touch Xiao Cui's forehead. It was no longer as hot as before. After drinking a few more doses of the medicine, she would be well again.

Zhou Yilin hesitated for a while, then told everything without hiding anything. It turned out that they had rarely had a full meal in recent days, and the reason was nothing else but the neglect and connivance of Qiao Hong and his men.

Of course, there was also Zhou Yilin's timid retreat.

In short, these refugees have complex personalities and unpredictable origins. If you want them to live safely and avoid trouble, you can only make them feel fearful.

Today's move can be considered as indirectly leaving an impression on these people.

As for whether there will be more blind people in the future, that is another matter.

"Those people have been assigned to work and will leave early tomorrow morning. You should take good care of Xiao Cui." Liu Qingcao reminded them as he carried the medicine box on his back.

"Thank you, benefactor, for saving us. Xiao Cui and I don't plan to leave Beiwu." Zhou Yilin looked determined.

Liu Qingcao was stunned for a moment, opened his lips to ask why, but finally gave up.

There are only a few reasons why they won't leave in the face of life and death, and even asking won't change anything.

Liu Qingcao nodded, curled his lips and left the igloo.

The cold wind outside the igloo blew away her thoughts, and she walked towards the house carrying the medicine box.

"girl."

Liu Wu's voice came from behind, and Liu Qingcao stopped and turned around.

Liu Wu was seen running towards her with a large stack of papers in his hand.

Back so soon?
Liu Qingcao looked at Liu Wu in confusion. It was such a long journey to Beiwu City, why did he come back so early?
Liu Wu stood in front of Liu Qingcao, looked at the girl's puzzled expression, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Girl, you are so right." Liu Wu said admiringly.

Liu Qingcao was even more confused. What was Liu Wu talking about? Why couldn't she understand? What did she say?

Liu Wu grinned and raised his eyebrows, "Miss, the food in the hot spring villa is really as you said. It has not been occupied by the bad guys. It has been protected by General Yang and his men."

As he spoke, Liu Wu handed over the pass in his hand and looked at Liu Qingcao with a smile, "Miss, when I went out this morning, I ran into General Yang's people. They said General Yang was in the hot spring villa, so I followed them. This round trip saved me a lot of time. Otherwise, I would still be on my way back now!"

Liu Qingcao only then understood what was going on, but she didn't expect General Yang to act so quickly. He had already taken action before they even left.

That’s not right. Who would carry a stamp with them when going out?

When Liu Qingcao thought of this, an idea suddenly flashed through his mind, and he looked at Liu Wu with a complicated expression.

Liu Wu was confused by Liu Qingcao's gaze and was about to ask something when he was interrupted.

"Miss, the food in the warehouse has been loaded, do you have any other instructions for me to do?" Jian Peng came over on the snow and reported.

Liu Qingcao was silent for a moment, "Go and take all your men to the back room, and let them take a good look at Qiao Hong and the others."

After saying that, Liu Qingcao waved his hand and asked him to leave.

Jian Peng didn't ask any more questions. He bowed respectfully and left.

Liu Qingcao watched Jian Peng leave before taking the pass from Liu Wu's hand and flipping it over.

After she finished reading this, she fell silent.

Nearly half of the people were unwilling to leave, most of them were older or of the same age as Zhou Yilin.

If these people don’t leave, how can we survive, old or young?!
Liu Qingcao tightened the pass paper in his hand, pondered secretly, and made a decision.

"Liu Wu, give 10,000 kilograms of food to those who remain."

As for the salt, she could just quietly put it in the kitchen when the time comes.

Liu Wu was not surprised by Liu Qingcao's decision. Their girl was kind-hearted, but she was not the kind of person who only gave without expecting anything in return. Since the girl had made the decision, she must have felt that these people were not useless.

She nodded and quickly went to the warehouse, asking someone to deliver the girl's words.

Liu Qingcao returned to her room, restocked the medicine box, and then went to her own small kitchen.

Except for her, no one goes into the small kitchen in the main house. This is the most suitable place to put salt.

She opened the cupboard and took out five hundred kilograms of salt from the space and put it in.

Five hundred kilograms of salt may not sound like a lot, but it is very durable. The four hundred people who stayed behind could eat it until March or April after the Chinese New Year without any problem.

Looking at the five large bags of coarse salt in the cupboard, Liu Qingcao felt that it would be difficult to explain if someone talked about it in the future, so he took out three bags, put them in a large jar in the corner, and then sealed it.

In this way, even if people knew that there was a large amount of coarse salt in the Gu family mansion, those people would secretly keep this news in their hearts.

After all, whether the seal is real or fake, anyone who eats and uses it will be affected.

She thought, they wouldn't be so stupid as to hurt themselves!
