After teasing the old woman, Fu Bao felt extremely comfortable.
Things have become more and more serious outside recently. Many children know that there is rice here in Fubao, and they will come to Fubao every now and then to ask for some rice.
Fu Bao looked at the face that appeared three times today and said: "Don't come here anymore. My house is not a rice shop. I can't afford it three times a day."
The child burst into tears and said: "Sister, there are more than a dozen people in my family, please help me! Woohoo..."
Fu Bao snorted coldly: "Didn't I help you? Three bowls of rice a day is enough for more than ten days. You are too greedy."
Seeing that Fu Bao was not given to him, the child immediately planned to grab it, but the other children were not vegetarians either and swarmed him.
Fubao only provides food to a dozen children. Some children are really in trouble at home, and some are not. Like the one just now, they can't wait to come several times a day, which makes people feel sick.
Fu Bao liked well-behaved children, but the next day, she almost exploded with anger. When she opened the door, dozens of children came outside.
Fu Bao looked at them and said, "How do you know this place?"
Many of the dozens of children sniffed and said, "Someone said you can get free rice here. We heard it and came here."
Fu Bao looked at their clothes and said, "What do you do? Why are your clothes so torn?"
"We are beggars in the south of the city. Miss, please take pity on us, right?"
Old Mrs. Huang rushed out with a stick: "What do you beggars want to do?"
The beggars all hid behind, and Fu Bao suddenly laughed, took Old Mrs. Huang's hand and said, "Mistress, I'll take care of this place!"
Old Mrs. Huang hugged her and said, "Don't let these beggars fool you."
What could these beggars lie to her? They are all children without fathers and mothers, and their bodies are full of black energy, some of which are so strong that they cannot be dissipated.
In other words, if she doesn't save them, these beggars will die soon.
These children looked at her with pitiful eyes, and Fu Bao said: "You go into the yard and wait, and you are not allowed to make any noise, do you hear me?"
All the beggars nodded, and Fu Bao ushered in those with black energy and shut out those with white energy.
Those few people looked at each other. These people just wanted to fish in troubled waters, but they didn't understand why Fu Bao could see it?
Fu Bao entered the house and asked Lin Yan and Huang Hongmei to start cooking thick rice porridge with wild vegetables.
Mrs. Huang felt distressed, wild vegetable porridge! Why should she feed these little beggars? But she couldn't stop what Fu Bao wanted to do, because Fu Bao got all the food in the house.
Exactly thirty minutes later, the beggars had a bowl of wild vegetable porridge in their bowls, and they looked at Fu Bao with grateful eyes.
Fu Bao smiled and said: "This daily meal is not free. You want to go into the mountains to collect herbs. Are you willing to follow me into the mountains to collect herbs?"
The beggars were stunned, but after thinking about it they nodded directly. How could they be unwilling?
As long as they can survive by taking care of the food every day, they will sit obediently after eating the wild vegetable porridge. Fubao is short of manpower now, and all the family members need go to school. Most of these children are about ten years old and can use it.
She didn't let the children go into the mountains that day, but asked them to come back tomorrow.
Fubao asked Huang Wulang to prepare dozens of medicine hoes. Huang Wulang rolled his eyes and said, "Fu Bao! Medicine hoes are so expensive. They cost 3 cents each. I think you..."
Fubao directly took out 20 yuan and said: "Buy a medicine hoe..."
The rich ones are the big guys. Huang Wulang bought 50 of them in total for 15 yuan.
The next day, these beggars came again, more than 80 of them.
The people in the village were shocked: "Where did these beggars come from? Why do they all seem to have gone to Huang's house?"
"I wonder if we should tell the village chief whether the Huang family is being targeted?"
"It's hard to tell. Let's go and have a look quickly..."
After a while, I saw people in the village gathered around the Huang family and said, "What do you stinky beggars want to do?"
"This is Huangjia Village. If you dare to act wild here, I will kill you."
Fu Bao hurriedly came out and said, "Thank you, uncle and uncle. They are the helpers I invited to help me with my work."
"Fu Bao! Don't let them deceive you. They are just a bunch of beggars. What kind of work can they do? If you want to work, just come to us!" This group of villagers talked a lot.
Fu Bao waved her hand. She couldn't control the older ones, and she wanted to slowly cultivate her own herb-picking team, her own confidants.
In the end, everyone in Huangjia Village left.
After they left, Huang Wulang put the Fu Bao in his backpack and went up the mountain with dozens of children.
The younger children stayed at home. The children here were all about 10 years old. Some children were shivering in single clothes during the winter.
Fu Bao sighed and led them into the mountains and said, "You must follow us closely and don't run around. There are wild beasts in the mountains."
All those children nodded and were quite obedient. Children these days are generally precocious. What would a teenager in the previous life do?
But now ten-year-old children are willing to do anything, as long as they can be given a way to survive.
There were a lot of herbs in the deep mountains. Fu Bao looked for them and said, "It's right here. Dig out these astragalus."
The children all squatted down and started digging for astragalus. Fu Bao was looking in the forest again, but after a while, she found a large area of horsetail.
Equisetum is also called knotweed and eldergrass, and it is quite useful.
Fu Bao asked several children to pick horsetails, and she directed Huang Wulang: "Uncle Wu, dig this out."
Huang Wulang said helplessly: "Little ancestor, what is this?"
"Northern Radix Ginseng! Fifth Uncle, don't you even know this?" Fu Bao held his head, and the corner of Huang Wulang's mouth twitched. Should he know it?
If everyone knew medicinal materials like Fu Bao, their family would have become rich long ago, right?
There are not many people in this village who can even read, let alone know medicinal materials.
Although it was winter, there was no heavy snowfall this year, so there were still a lot of medicinal materials in the mountains. I don’t know if it was just luck, but I didn’t encounter any wild animals all afternoon.
"Okay, let's call it a day." A group of people happily returned to Huang's house with their backpacks on their backs.
After a day in the mountains, I was tired and hungry. At noon, each person was given a piece of thick flour pancake. Although it was not delicious, it was better than being hungry.
These children know how to be grateful. Even when they enter Huang's house, they scrape the mud under their feet again and again.
In the evening, they still ate wild vegetable porridge. Mrs. Huang looked at the more than 80 children outside, and she felt panicked: "Bao! Our family can't feed so many children! You'd better let them go!" "
Fu Bao opened his round eyes and said, "Nai, don't we have a utility room over there? Let these children live in it first?"
