Surviving the famine: I made my fortune by helping others

"Third brother, what are you talking about? Isn't this just a dead girl? She is clearly alive and well, why should we leave? She has delicious food and drinks here, I don't want to leave, I want to follow her, I want to follow her!"

Ye Baohe rolled on the ground and threw a tantrum when he had a disagreement.

Although Zhang was beaten and was frightened, she did not want to leave, so she acquiesced to her youngest son's actions.

Looking at their expressions, Ye Baoxiang could only grit his teeth.

"Then you guys stay here, I'm leaving!"

He had already been there once, so it didn't matter this time.

"Alright, alright, stop standing here and joining in the fun. I see that none of you want to eat anymore. Hurry up and get to work."

After Aunt Du finished her greetings, she walked over to the big pot first.

The other old ladies and young wives who were watching the fun also turned around and left.

Watching the fun is not as important as eating.

Ye Chuyi naturally had no interest in staying to continue watching the Ye family's performance, but staggered to the back of the team.

She also had a task to solve the problem of drinking water, and she could use now to complete it.

The refugees following behind naturally heard the farce that happened in front. Now when they saw Ye Chuyi leading a few men and walking towards them aggressively, they couldn't help but hold their breath.

"You, what do you want to do? We didn't do anything, you can't hit us."

A slight sound came from the crowd, and the others subconsciously shrank their necks.

"Don't be afraid, our lady is a good person and will never hit you."

Du Jiayi shouted happily to the crowd.

The refugees did not believe it and just took another big step back together.

It was the same trembling voice that had just sounded, "So, what do you want to do here? We have nothing."

After the owner of the voice finished speaking, he subconsciously clenched the cloth bag in his hand, as if he was trying to cover up his mistake.

Du Jiayi looked at the crowd, then at Ye Chuyi, and scratched his head in embarrassment.

He didn't know how to continue.

Du Jiaren looked at his stupid brother with disdain and took a big step forward with an upright posture.

"Our young lady is kindhearted. She knows that it is very difficult for everyone to escape the famine and travel, so she wants to help everyone..."

"Help us? That sounds nice, but it's just a show of face. Can you really give us food?"

Someone in the crowd murmured something, and the sound was particularly clear in the empty grass.

Ye Chu subconsciously looked in the direction where the sound came from.

He was a boy of about ten years old, huddled in the crowd, and it was obvious that he was malnourished.

"Although we can't share food with everyone, our lady knows that everyone hasn't had a good drink of water for several days. They must be thirsty now. Our team happened to find some water, so our lady wanted to give it to everyone as an emergency measure. If anyone is not satisfied, they can refuse it. If you want it, please don't talk nonsense behind your back."

As soon as Du Jiaren finished speaking, there were gasps from the crowd.

"Are you really going to share our water?"

Still that little boy.

Ye Chuyi glanced at him again and pulled the corner of his mouth slightly, "What's the benefit of us lying to you?"

"Who knows? You rich people love to cheat ordinary people like us anyway."

The boy held his head high and was not panicked at all.

"Why don't you come over and see if it's true?"

Ye Chuyi said this and patted the big pot that had just been put down next to him.

The young boy was not afraid of trouble at all. When he heard Ye Chuyi ask him to watch, he really squeezed out of the crowd.

"Hey, you guy..."

Du Jiayi wanted to say something but was stopped by Ye Chuyi.

Ban Daxiao just glanced at him and carefully lifted the oilcloth covering the big pot.

When he saw the pot full of clean water, his eyes immediately lit up.

"It's water, really water, a whole pot full of it, they didn't lie to us!"

The boy excitedly shouted a few times at the crowd, then turned around and went back.

"Don't you want to sleep?"

Ye Chuyi gave him a puzzled look.

The young boy tugged at his clothes hem in embarrassment and said, "I'm not thirsty yet, let others drink first."

Ye Chuyi couldn't help but look at him twice more. He originally thought he was a troublemaker, but he didn't expect him to be so sensible.

"It just so happens that I am not familiar with the people in your team, so why don't you help me distribute the water here."

The boy looked up at her in confusion, and after making sure she was not joking, he pursed his lips and said, "I will do my job well."

Du Jiayi on the side scratched his head in confusion. Aren't there a lot of people here? Why did the young lady let this boy share the water?

"What's your name?"

Looking at his thin body busying around, Ye Chuyi actually felt a bit of pleasure.

"To answer Miss, my name is Lin Mucang."

While Lin Mucang was talking, his hands kept moving, and his movements of pumping water were fast and steady.

"Shui Cang, according to seniority, you still have to call me uncle. I have taken care of you all along the way. Now that you show up, don't you have to take care of me as well?"

The man with shifty eyes moved closer to Lin Mucang as he spoke.

A pair of eyes almost grew into the pot.

Lin Shuicang didn't even look at him, but calmly stopped his hand from reaching into the pot.

"No matter who you are, you have to queue up. No one can skip the queue."

"Boy, don't be ungrateful. I am your uncle. You are being unfilial."

The man yelled in dissatisfaction.

Lin Mucang still didn't look at him, "My father didn't tell me that he had other brothers. I didn't know when you became my uncle."

Ye Chuyi looked at him and nodded with appreciation.

It's a good one.

Seeing that he couldn't win the argument, the man turned around and tried to snatch it away.

Du Jiayi and the others were standing nearby. How could they let him fulfill his wish? They just threw him to the ground.

The man wanted to struggle, but several men covered his mouth and pressed him to the ground and gave him a lesson.

When the other people in the team who were ready to make a move saw this, they immediately gave up the idea and lined up obediently.

Lin Mucang looked at the sturdy men with envy, and his movements of fetching water became faster.

As the last drop of water was beaten out.

Ye Chuyi finally heard the prompt sound from the system indicating that the task was completed.

"Ding——, congratulations to the host for completing the task of finding a water source and successfully helping the refugees in the team escape from the career crisis. The system reward will be issued soon. The God-given double mission reward card is in use.
