ing bugs back home, as they weren't hungry.Yesterday's snake meat, it's estimated that they could eat for about ten days, even counting Zongyu's appetite.The weather is hot, meat can only be stored fo...Fang Jinshi's space did indeed stock a good amount of food and drink, including ready-made rice grains, vegetables, meat, and the like, totaling several hundred kilograms.

Since the warehouse at the manor was built, she moved most of the food into it, leaving only a small amount in the original storage spaces just in case.

Inside the carriage, she counted the remaining food and frowned.

Even if I left all the food behind, it wouldn't be enough for the villagers to get through the winter.

"Does the court truly turn a blind eye to these people, leaving them to fend for themselves in this natural disaster"

Zongyu's face was a little heavy, and he didn't know how to answer.

Zhao Yi and Zhao Er included Hunhun, who looked dazed and unfocused, Shen Li's expression was not as relaxed as before.

When they helped clean the ancestral hall for the villagers, they carried out over twenty corpses and skeletons from inside.

These people, few died from sickness, almost all died of exposure.

They had never seen so many dead people in their lives, it was truly shocking.

Unexpectedly, this was only the beginning. From the mountain foot to Loshu County town, on this small road, there were a total of seventeen villages, big and small.

Most of them have already become deserted villages, and the people who were able to flee did so long ago.

Those who remained couldn't leave. Like the first village they encountered, only a handful of survivors were left, and the houses within it were filled with the skeletal remains of those who had starved or frozen to death.

Along the way, the food and medicinal supplies in Fang Jinshiu's space had been depleted.

Expressions on several faces no longer held a hint of ease. As they got closer to the county town, the situation in the villages improved somewhat.

Along the riverbanks, wherever there was water, things were always a bit better.

The carriage slowly drove into the city gate.

Fang Jinshi's voice had become hoarse.

"Ayu, could you go to the county office and explain the situation to Lord Pan yourself"

She grew up in a peaceful and prosperous era, and even as a doctor, she had never seen so many deaths at once.

This was the first time she realized the devastating impact a drought could have on people.

Here, human life is truly as cheap as grass.

"I want to go to Wang's Grain Store."

Fang Jinshi didn't need to say it directly, Zong Yu also guessed what she wanted to do.

"Okay."

"Make Shen Li stay by your side at all times."

Zhao Yi and Zhao Er were not true family after all. Zong Yu trusted Shen Li, who had just emerged and was still recovering his memory, much more than them.

Fang Jinshi nodded.

At the fork in the road, Zongyu jumped out of the carriage and quickly headed towards the county government office.

Then she turned and went to the Wang family's grain store.

After entering the city, Shen Li's expression became faintly anxious. After Fang Jinshi got off the carriage, he immediately stopped her.

"Save the master."

"You promised me."

Shen Li didn't know why he remembered this so clearly. His mind was a mess, but subconsciously, he kept remembering the person lying on the bed. He had to make sure nothing happened to them.

Fang Jinxiu gently patted Shen Li's arm, "Don't worry, do this well, and I will immediately go to treat your master."

With that said, Shen Li reluctantly made way.

As soon as Fang Jinshu appeared at the grain store, someone immediately went to Wang's house to report to Young Master Wang.

The head clerk of the grain store was afraid to see her, but he didn't forget how she had tricked three other grain store clerks into selling out all their food last time.

He was severely punished by his master, not to mention losing this job.

It's incredibly difficult to find a decent job that can support a family in this city now.

So the shop assistants and shopkeeper upon seeing Fang Jinshi, were both afraid and had to accompany a smile.

"Madam Zong, what brings you to the grain store today Aren't you here again, to buy grain"

Fang Jinshu knew this shopkeeper couldn't make the decision, so she sat down and waited for Young Master Wang to appear of her own accord.

That fellow who just ran out, I saw her right there.

"You guys do what you want, I won't make things difficult for you."

The shopkeeper heard this and relaxed his furrowed brows, wiping away a cold sweat.

As expected, Wang D Shao soon appeared, striding hurriedly.

"Miss Zong!" He beamed when he saw Fang Jinshu.

"Why don't we talk in the backyard"

Here, with so many people around and eyes everywhere, it was rare for Zong's daughter to take the initiative to find him. Wang D Shao couldn't hide the smile on his face.

Could it be that Lady Zong has changed her mind and decided to divorce himnxiu followed the marks left by Zong Yu, as she got closer to the bandit's den, she finally understood why Zong Yu hadn't sent any news for several days and didn't come back.This place is truly blesse...
