As soon as the carriage arrived at Minjia Village, the villagers saw Min Xiyao driving the carriage and immediately gathered around to express their gratitude to Min Xiyao.
If it hadn't been for Miss Xiyao, they would have starved to death by now.
It is precisely because of the food and cotton-padded clothes and quilts provided by Miss Xiyao that they are able to survive until now. I went to the county town to receive disaster relief food and funds, and now I can rebuild my home.
The villagers thanked Min Xiyao enthusiastically and wished to worship her as a god.
These villagers did not notice that their name for Min Xiyao had changed.
From the former Min Daya, the Xiyao girl, she became the Xiyao girl.
The change of title showed the change in their attitude towards Min Xiyao, and it also showed their respect for Min Xiyao.
The villagers were so enthusiastic that Min Xiyao couldn't bear it. She said goodbye to everyone and drove her carriage back home.
Along the way, the village was bustling with activity. Some were moving stones, some were moving wood, and some were working enthusiastically on the ruins.
Due to the huge wealth of corrupt officials and profiteers, Li Yu was not stingy this time. The relief funds distributed to the victims were very generous. Each family was able to receive a large amount of disaster relief money from the court, which was enough to rebuild their homes.
Afraid that corrupt officials below would embezzle disaster relief funds, Li Yu sent confidants to supervise the situation in every county, which made several corrupt officials in County Magistrate Li almost vomit blood in anger.
Not only that, Li Yu sent people to tell the victims that the relief money was donated by a mysterious benevolent person, and asked the victims to thank this benevolent person.
Li Yu's actions and rhetoric made the Qingzhou magistrate and Tongzhi and other officials whose mansions were stolen gnashed their teeth and wanted to kill Li Yu and the mysterious man.
The Qingzhou magistrate was so angry that he slammed the table and the bench, and said with anger: "Li Yu, this thief, openly used the stolen money as disaster relief funds for those lowly lives. I want to kill him."
He very much suspected that Li Yu sent people to steal the disaster relief money from their mansion.
After working hard for decades and working for the third prince, I managed to accumulate so much property, but it was stolen in one night.
What's even more frightening is that the thief Li Yu actually took their money and distributed it to the poor and humble. Why?
The prefect was so angry that he spat out a mouthful of old blood, which frightened the staff. They rushed forward, supported the prefect, and advised:
"Sir, don't be impatient. As long as you hold on to the Third Prince tightly, it will be easy for you to get promoted and make a fortune in the future. As for Prince Rui, the Third Prince has already sent someone, and he won't live for a few more days."
The staff were also shocked. The legitimate son of the empress could actually commit theft. Aren't they afraid of being scolded by the censor and punished by the emperor?
They also thought that they had no evidence to prove that King Rui sent someone to do the thing, so they could only suffer the loss of being dumb.
Thinking of the current situation of the prefect, the staff felt a little shaken. Can the prefect still afford his salary?
The disaster relief work was carried out in full swing. With a large amount of disaster relief money and food, Li Yu felt confident and treated the people generously.
Coupled with the divine assistance of Min Xiyao, the people's casualties were greatly reduced.
That book records that a snowstorm broke out in Qingzhou, resulting in numerous casualties and corpses strewn across the fields, leaving the people in dire straits. Tens of thousands of victims were in exile, and another plague broke out. With the intervention of the third prince, relief funds and grain were stolen by officials, and countless people starved to death.
In the end, a plague broke out across the country, and the people had no way to survive. Some bold people rose up, and the country was in turmoil for decades.
With the help of Princess Rui, Wu Chunhua, a modern time-travel heroine, King Rui seized power and became the emperor.
However, even though King Rui was extremely capable and devoted to the people, it took many years for the turmoil to subside.
The country's more than ten years of turmoil had a serious impact on the entire Northern Qi Kingdom.
This time, because of Min Xiyao's participation, the source of the turmoil was indirectly contained and countless people were saved. The points in the space increased so fast that Qiqi was stunned.
It stared at the screen displaying the points without blinking, and was so shocked that it couldn't speak.
Since the last upgrade of the space, the space weapon spirit Qiqi has a body, and it is no longer the consciousness it once was.
The white fluffy dumplings have cute facial features. This made Qiqi extremely happy. It finally has its own body.
All of these are benefits brought by the power of merit!
"Haha, sister, you are so awesome! Do more good deeds in the future! Maybe I will become better-looking in the future."
God knows how much Qiqi wanted to have her own body since she woke up and learned that she was a weapon spirit with only a glimmer of consciousness.
Now it has been realized, and it will become even better in the future. This is such an exciting thing!
Min Xiyao felt Qiqi's excitement, and the corners of her mouth curled up nicely.
Along the way, when the villagers saw Min Xiyao, they all came forward to say hello warmly. There were also several old ladies in the village who held Min Xiyao's hand tightly and expressed their gratitude with tears in their eyes.
It was the first time for Min Xiyao to face such an enthusiastic person, which made her a little uncomfortable as she likes to keep to herself.
Still, she greeted them with a smile.
Aunt Li heard the sound of horse hooves and guessed that Min Xiyao was back, so she walked out excitedly.
Seeing Min Xiyao driving a carriage to the door, he hurriedly greeted her.
"Xiyao is back. When I heard the sound of the carriage, I knew it was you."
She said with a smile, stepped forward to take the reins from Min Xiyao's hand, and prepared to lead the horse into the yard.
Hearing their mother's voice, Min Xiaobao and Min Xiaoxiao also ran out happily.
"Sister Xiyao is back, I miss you so much!"
Min Xiaobao happily rushed towards Min Xiyao, wanting Min Xiyao to hug her.
How could you not like such a cute child?
Min Xiyao hugged Min Xiaobao and asked, "Xiaobao, have you listened to your mother these days?"
With that said, he put Xiaobao down and took out a pack of osmanthus candies wrapped in oil paper from the space, "This is the osmanthus candies I brought for you."
Min Xiaobao looked at the oil paper on Min Xiyao's hand, licked his tongue, swallowed, but did not dare to take it, and looked at him pitifully.
"Girl, our family living in your house has caused you a lot of trouble. If it weren't for you, our family might have been ruined. How can we still ask for your food?"
Tears welled up in Aunt Li's eyes. She was really grateful to Min Xiyao, and she never expected that her original kindness would receive such a great favor.
Min Xiaobao also nodded vigorously, "Well, mother is right, sister saved our family's lives, how can we ask for your things again?"
Although he was talking, his eyes kept staring at the oil paper bag containing osmanthus candy, and he was so greedy that his mouth watered.
Min Xiaobao's cute appearance made Min Xiyao laugh. She bent down, gently scratched Min Xiaobao's nose, stuffed the sweet-scented osmanthus candy into Min Xiaobao's arms, and walked inside.
"Auntie, don't be polite to me. A little food for the child is nothing."
If she hadn't been willing to give the money and food to Li Yu for disaster relief this time, she wouldn't have received such a big benefit.
Already feeling the loosening of the golden elixir realm in her body, Min Xiyao's lips curled up, feeling very good.
