Dressed as an old woman, I carry the system and my son to escape the famine
Chapter 525: Rejection by Disaster Victims
In Shen Fugui's understanding, disaster relief is to help refugees settle down and solve their food and housing problems.
But I didn't expect that there would be corruption issues involved.
It can be learned from the county magistrate that most of the officials who came to provide disaster relief previously pocketed the disaster relief money, casually dealt with the court, and then left directly.
Now that I think about it, these people are indeed hateful.
Shen Fugui's face was full of melancholy, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.
Yao Shu noticed his displeasure and comforted him: "You don't have to worry so much. Since we are here, we must help them solve the problem. What's more, with so many people here, there will definitely be a solution."
Shen Fugui was still full of worries, but at this moment when he heard Yao Shu's words, he could only nod lightly in agreement.
After a simple repair, he still felt uneasy and decided to go out and inspect it himself.
Perhaps it was because he had already appeared in the morning and everyone already knew his identity. When they saw him appearing next to them, they would inevitably show displeasure.
Shen Fugui noticed that everyone was treating him strangely, so he subconsciously wanted to ask. He did not expect that no matter who he looked at, the other person would avoid him.
This look of contempt and rejection made him feel very confused.
Seeing two children not far away warming each other, he immediately tiptoed forward.
Squat down in front of your child and speak softly to avoid scaring them.
"Children, why don't you go to the safe house?"
As soon as the two children saw him coming in front of them, their expressions immediately became horrified.
They looked at each other and hurried to the other side.
This expression was like seeing a ghost, which made Shen Fugui feel even more confused.
He frowned subconsciously, took out two candies from his arms, and handed them gently.
Maybe it’s been a long time since I’ve seen candy, but it’s very tempting for the two children.
They looked at each other and hesitantly reached out to take the candy.
One of the older children stepped forward cautiously and said in a low voice: "Thank you, sir."
"You don't have to be so polite. I came here this time to give you a better settlement. I saw that there is a house specially designed for you not far away. Why don't you go and live there?" Shen Fugui looked around and found that it was not far away. There is a temple everywhere.
Everyone was building bunks under the temple, or setting up a simple tent, but they avoided the temporary houses.
This appearance inevitably made him feel confused. He thought about it and said softly: "Is there something in that house that makes you not want to go there?"
Hearing this, the two children shook their heads quickly.
The older child pretended to be an adult and said in a low voice: "Of course not. Mom said there is a big bad wolf inside. If you go in, you will be eaten dry. Of course we can't disobey mom's order, so we can't go up there." Go."
Hearing this, Shen Fugui couldn't help laughing: "Why is there a big bad wolf in there?"
"Actually, I don't think there is a big bad wolf in there. Mom deliberately lied to us. But the reason why mom didn't let us in may be because of the official inside..." Before he could finish his words, an adult hurriedly said Come behind the child.
She glanced at Shen Fugui in panic, and quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, sir, my child is childish and said inappropriate things. I hope you won't blame us."
After saying that, before Shen Fugui could speak, he quickly took the two children away.
She hugged the little child with one hand, and held the older child tightly with the other hand, and left in a hurry.
If she didn't know better, she would have thought that Shen Fugui said something to disturb her.
Shen Fugui frowned subconsciously and decided to go explore under the temple.
As soon as he stood in front of everyone, a group of strong young people appeared. They raised their sticks and pointed at Shen Fugui, their expressions were extremely disgusting.
"We know that the official came here to solve the disaster, but we people have not done anything wrong. Now we are just here to shelter from the wind and rain and barely maintain our lives. If the official can even hinder us here , don’t blame our men for being ruthless.”
As he spoke, several elderly people stood up in a hurry and stood in front of this group of young people.
One of the old men with a white beard said tremblingly: "It's our idea to be here, and it has nothing to do with these children. If the official wants to punish us, just come to us."
After saying that, the old man seemed to have thought of something and took off his coat and placed it on the ground.
Before Shen Fugui could react, he saw the old man lying upright on top of his coat.
"This time I obstructed the official from doing things, and it is understandable if I want to punish him. But I am old after all. If the official doesn't mind, just let me lie on this coat and suffer the punishment."
Hearing this, Shen Fugui was even more confused.
He frowned subconsciously and asked, "Why should I punish you?"
"We don't know what the official thinks. After all, we are just ordinary poor people. We were already homeless because of this disaster. If the official wants to kill us all now, we can only accept our fate."
When the old man finished speaking, the young people behind him all had red eyes, raised their sticks and couldn't help but come forward.
Seeing that he had caused public outrage, Shen Fugui had little experience and did not know how to deal with the current situation.
He spoke hesitantly and said softly: "I am not here to do anything to you. I wonder if there is any misunderstanding in this?"
"Misunderstanding?! Regardless of whether there is a misunderstanding or not, there is absolutely no way we will give in today."
Seeing the young people in front of him pressing forward step by step, Shen Fugui could only retreat.
The next second, he only felt that there was someone standing next to him.
Turning around to look, it was Yao Shu who looked anxious.
"Fellow fellow villagers, if we have offended you in any way, we apologize to you here. We are new here, so many rules are naturally different. If anything offends you, I hope you can give us another chance. Now Xue We have stopped, and we are giving porridge next to the bridge not far away. There is no limit to the number of times, no limit to how much, as long as everyone comes over, we will ensure that everyone can have enough to eat."
After Yao Shu finished speaking, she bowed deeply to everyone.
Everyone looked at each other, obviously moved by her words.
It's just that although everyone has this idea, no one takes action.
