Chapter 138 Very aggrieved
The servants from the herbal medicine shop came out to maintain order. These tall and strong men were still very intimidating. Besides, these refugees knew that this was the imperial capital and did not dare to cause trouble.

After the servant said this, the queue was quickly formed. After all, for those of them who had been hungry for a day or two, being able to eat was more important than anything else.

When order was almost restored, Bai Qianxi appeared and brought out a large bucket of porridge.

In an instant, the steaming aroma filled the nose of every refugee.

"It's meat! I smell meat!" an old man suddenly spoke loudly.

It instantly caused a commotion, and others followed suit and also smelled the oily smell.

The servant of the herbal medicine shop quickly spoke up to suppress the crowd, "Please line up first, don't push forward! Our boss knows that you have been living a life of hunger during this period! So we specially added some vegetables and meat to the porridge!"

When they got a positive answer, the refugees cheered even louder.

"Then I wonder when the boss will start distributing porridge? We are so hungry that we can't even stand up." Some people couldn't help swallowing their saliva when they smelled the greasy smell.

His eyes were like those of a hungry wolf, glowing green as he looked at the food in front of him.

"We can start right away, but before we distribute the porridge, our boss has a few words for me to tell you." The servant said loudly.

The refugees were already getting impatient at this time. If they hadn't had some reservations in their hearts, they would have rushed forward to grab it.

Xiao Si felt a little uneasy being stared at by so many eyes, so he quickly told Bai Qianxi what she had told him.

"Our boss told me to tell you that although you can live on the porridge given to you by others every day, this is not a long-term solution. I still hope that you can find a job in Beijing, so that you can at least have something to eat!"

Xiao Si finished explaining what he was going to do and without any more nonsense, he quickly started to arrange for the porridge to be distributed.

Bai Qianxi tried to do it, but the long-sleeved shirt was difficult to operate, so she simply took a piece of cloth to tie up the cuffs, which made it much easier to operate.

When Cheng Shaoyi came over, he saw this scene and instantly knew what was going on.

"Xier!" Cheng Shaoyi said in surprise. He took two steps over, picked up the bowl beside him, and started to help.

The tacit cooperation between the two made Bai Qianxi smile.

"I was originally planning to go to your house to find you, but on the way you came here to give out porridge, so I came here." Cheng Shaoyi explained the reason for his visit while he was working.

Although distributing porridge looks simple, it is actually not an easy task as it requires mechanically repeating the same action.

One bucket of porridge had been used up, and the servant brought a second bucket from the kitchen and looked at the victims queuing in front of him.

There was still no end in sight, but their hands were already starting to feel sore.

Just at this moment, Bai Yulang passed by and noticed the situation here. He immediately walked over and took the spoon from Bai Qianxi's hand very naturally.

"Xi'er, let me do this kind of physical work. Just pass me the bowl."

Bai Qianxi did not postpone it with him. After all, she was indeed a little tired. In order to distribute the porridge to the victims faster, she asked the victims to line up in two more rows.

This is obviously much faster, but the victims are already advertising that there is meat in today's porridge, so there is still no end in sight.

"Tell me if you are tired and I will take over for you." Bai Qianxi reminded.

But Bai Yulang still disagreed.

It was not until the sky gradually darkened that there were finally few people left, and the porridge they cooked was almost gone. "I'm so tired, I've never been so tired before." When it was finally announced that the porridge distribution for today was over, Cheng Shaoyi was so tired that he almost fell on Bai Qianxi.

Seeing this, Bai Yulang quickly pulled the man away and said, "Cheng Er, my sister is tired today, don't lie on her and press her down."

Cheng Shaoyi was already somewhat dissatisfied with not being able to stick the thing on successfully, and he was almost pulled to the point of stumbling. When he heard these words, he instantly became dissatisfied.

"Bai Yulang, what do you mean? You can't stand me getting close to your sister, right? I want to rely on her! What can you do to me?"

As he spoke, Cheng Shaoyi didn't seem to feel tired anymore. He went over and hugged Bai Qianxi's arm, looking like, "What can you do to me?"

Bai Yulang really couldn't do anything to him, so he could only frown helplessly, "Are you a child? Why do you always misinterpret what I mean?"

"Humph!"

Cheng Shaoyi turned his head away and ignored him, pulling Bai Qianxi into the house.

Bai Yulang had no choice but to follow.

There was already hot food in the room, which was prepared by someone Bai Wangqi had arranged for.

Just as they were about to close the door and eat, an angry figure walked over.

"Bai Qianxi! I knew it was you!" Bai Qianxi's eyes were filled with anger, completely different from the gentle look she showed in front of the disaster victims today.

It was like a demon crawling out of hell!
But when she pushed open the door, she was dumbfounded. She didn't expect that there was more than one person in the room.

"Third brother, why are you here?"
She subconsciously showed her usual gentle smile on her face, but Bai Yulang had already seen her true face and was completely unmoved.

Bai Qianyi also thought that Bai Yulang was no longer the third brother who always protected her, and the smile on her face gradually faded.

"What are you doing here?" Bai Yulang's cold voice sounded, and there was a chill in his eyes as he looked at the person in front of him.

Being stared at with such a cold gaze, Bai Qianyi instantly felt very aggrieved, and tears began to well up in her eyes.

Why is it that nothing good happens to her whenever she meets Bai Qianxi?

He had previously snatched away her third brother who had always loved her, and now he has set his sights on her second brother.

Now he is even trying to steal the reputation she has worked so hard to build up by giving out porridge. You have to know that the porridge today was cooked by his subordinates with great effort.

Today is the first day that refugees come into the city, and it is the best day to build a reputation. However, as more and more people come to distribute porridge, she will not stand out as one more person.

This was something she had planned, and now that her goal was about to be achieved, people around her were full of praise.

But before she could distribute much porridge, people had already run to Bai Qianxi's place, and the only ones left with her were the elderly, the weak, and the sick who were unable to run.

What's the point of these people coming?

"If everything is okay, don't cry here if you want to. We still have to eat." Bai Qianxi stared at the person in front of her with cold eyes.

Many things are judged by deeds rather than intentions. Although Bai Qianyi's purpose today was to promote her own reputation, she still helped some refugees in the end.

As long as she leaves obediently now, she won't have to do anything to her today.
