Chapter 178

"Have pity on us!" A group of children came over with broken bowls in their hands, begging to Gao Shuang, Wanqing, Mai Dong and the three brothers.

Mai Dong and the three brothers distributed some uneaten steamed buns to the poor children, while Wanqing took out a few pieces of malt candy from her pocket and distributed them to everyone.

At this time, as it happened, the weather suddenly changed, a gust of wind passed by, and it began to rain.And it's getting bigger and bigger, and it will become a downpour in a while.

Mai Dong and the three brothers didn't bring umbrellas, so they immediately stepped aside to hide from the rain.

Gao Shuang watched the heavy rain pouring down on these randomly built thatched huts, and remembered that once in Yaowang Mountain, a storm destroyed the small wooden huts built by Master Chen Jishi and Fennel.

"There are tens of thousands of mansions in Ande, which shelters the poor and happy people in the world, and is as safe as a mountain without wind and rain." Gao Shuang recited Du Fu's "Song of Thatched Cottages Broken by the Autumn Wind", a sense of responsibility spontaneously emerged.

"Master! There is still a bigger rainstorm coming!" Gao Shuang immediately looked around and found that Bao'er was hiding under a big tree next to him to avoid the rain, and said anxiously to himself.

Gao Shuang looked at the sky, and found that the whole world was dark, and the dark cumulonimbus clouds moved quickly towards this side. At this time, the sky was covered with dark clouds.

Gao Shuang rushed in desperately, and said to the refugees in the precarious thatched huts, "Get out of here quickly, everyone! A bigger storm is coming!"

Soon, the refugees, about 100 people, came out of the thatched hut one after another, and were taken to a temple by Gao Shuang, Mai Dong, and the three brothers.

Just as the refugees rested, a flash of lightning in the sky illuminated the entire universe. Then, with a loud bang, a tall and sturdy tree was knocked down in the entire shed area, and many wooden sheds were built.

Then, a gust of wind and rain came, and the wind lifted the thatch of the wooden shed, and the torrential rain washed away the toppled wooden shed like a flash flood.

In an instant, the entire wooden shed area was reduced to flat ground.

The refugees had no place to stand, and temporarily stayed in the ruined temple. They were cold and hungry, and there was a lot of mourning.

Gao Shuang said to everyone:
"Compatriots! Don't cry! Soon, where you live, there will be tall buildings built! That will be your new home! Difficulties are temporary, everyone bear with it!

The day when all the hardships come, is not far away from all of us! "

"Great! Really great!" After hearing Gao Shuang's words, everyone cheered and said.

……

Just when he said this, "Magistrate Feng is here!"

Soon, everyone saw that a man in his 50s, wearing an official uniform and a black gauze hat, came over, followed by several yamen servants.

"The county magistrate is here to see you!" Suddenly someone shouted loudly.

County magistrate Feng is the king of Zhaojun, a clean and honest official who has been trained by himself.

He was born in poverty, and since he passed the Jinshi examination and was appointed as the county magistrate of Huaxiangcheng, he has been acting as an official with the purpose of benefiting the people of one side.

Deeply loved by the people, this time, there was a violent storm, and I visited the disaster-stricken area in person.

The county government treasury couldn't allocate extra silver taels to appease the common people, so sad clouds appeared on Feng County Magistrate's face unconsciously.

Seeing that he had nothing to do here, Gao Shuang, Mai Dong, Wan Qing, and the three brothers were about to leave, but was stopped by County Magistrate Feng.

It turned out that some refugees looked at Gao Shuang with gratitude. If Gao Shuang hadn't reminded them in time, these refugees would have died.

County magistrate Feng had heard of Gao Shuang's name for a long time, and he also appreciated Gao Shuang's establishment of Jishitang.
