On the way to escape from famine, I amaze the world with my medical practice

Chapter 39 Yongxing Fucheng
  Ye Hongchang showed the directions given when entering the customs, and the group entered the city smoothly.

Up to now, they have been on the run for more than two months. The journey has been full of hardships and dangers, and they have lived in the open air. They have not seen this market scene for a long time, and they just feel a little out of place.

Entering the city, I saw a bustle of pedestrians and a prosperous scene.

Most people in Tongxin Village have never been to Fucheng. They always say that they are from Hexi Prefecture, but they don't even know what Fucheng in Hexi Prefecture looks like after leaving Xiliang.

Such a large group of people suddenly came in, causing many people to stop and look at him.

Seeing that they were dressed in rags and smelled a bit, passersby looked disgusted.

"Are they refugees fleeing famine again? How many people have come here already, and so does the court. How will we live after accepting so many refugees?"

"Oh, this is something you can decide? You can live your life however you want. I can't live in my own house for these people, right?"

"Of course. If anyone asks me to help refugees, I will go to the Yamen to make trouble. At worst, I won't even be alive."

"Hey, I was wondering why this city always smells so bad. With so many refugees coming in, how can it not stink? The doors and windows must be closed tightly, and there might even be thieves."

When everyone heard these words, they were helpless.

Are they not ordinary people who are honest and responsible?
  He only had no fixed place because of the war in the country and fled here. Now he is treated like a thief. How can he feel better?
  Ye Xiangxiang heard those words clearly and couldn't help but lower his head and smell himself, but he couldn't smell it.

Ye Lixuan walked beside her, and she asked in a low voice, "Do I smell bad?"

"It doesn't stink." Ye Lixuan shook his head, "It doesn't stink at all."

Ye Xiangxiang lowered his head and smelled it again, and then Ye Cuicui said to the side, "We went up the mountain and down the river. When we got to the back, we didn't even have to change our clothes. How could it not stink? It's just that everyone stinks. I can’t smell it anymore.”

Ye Xiangxiang suddenly realized that, yes, the smell will stop after you go to the toilet for a long time, that's the truth.

Listening to others talking about me makes me feel a little uncomfortable, but there is nothing I can do to change it.

They simply didn't listen and just looked at the scenes on both sides of the street. Anyway, these people couldn't stand them, but they couldn't drive them away.

After crossing the main street and walking to a narrower street, everyone smelled the aroma of meat.

There are teahouses and restaurants on both sides of the street, and there are also salesmen selling goods, such as steamed buns and pastries.

They haven't had much to eat in two months. Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but swallow their saliva.

Ye Hongchang took the money and wanted to buy some food, but these people were prejudiced against them and drove them away with poles before they even got close.

Wang said, "Let's go on our way first. We just entered the city and took money to buy food. I'm afraid we'll attract attention."

"Well, what mother said makes sense." Ye Hongchang nodded.

He asked the people on the side of the road for directions, and then led everyone on the way to Wushan County.

After leaving the city, the surroundings gradually became desolate again. Thinking back to the scene in the city just now, it felt like a dream.

It was past afternoon, and Ye Hongchang asked everyone to stop and rest.

Someone was passing by, and he asked for directions again, and said in a loud voice, "We can reach Wushan County in one day's walk, and we will settle down in Wushan County."

After hearing this, everyone was no longer happy.

I heard in the past that people would rejoice when they are close to Great Yan, and the difficulties they encountered along the way also made everyone sober up.

It's almost there, but I don't know what obstacles stand in the way.

Ye Lixuan was still recalling the aroma of the food he smelled when passing by the city, and couldn't help but smack his mouth.

I really want to have a full meal, steamed buns, porridge, and sauced pork elbows.

I always ate like this at home before, and I don’t know if I can eat it again in the future. As he thought about it, he couldn't help but shed tears. He just felt so wronged.

He thought no one had seen him, so he stretched out his hand to wipe his tears. Ye Xiangxiang said, "Cry. If you cry, you won't feel bad."

Ye Lixuan turned around quickly, "Sister, why are you here?"

"This place is not big. I can see you anywhere. I know you have been wronged. You can cry if you want. Why are you hiding?" Ye Xiangxiang smiled.

Ye Lixuan shook his head, "I won't cry anymore, I am a man, I have grown up, and I want to protect you."

"Men can cry," Ye Xiangxiang said. "It's not illegal. Anyway, you can still protect us after crying, right?"

"Yes." Ye Lixuan nodded, thinking that it was not an easy journey and that in the end he couldn't even take a bite of meat, he burst into tears and held Ye Xiangxiang's arm to wipe his tears.

"Sister, wuwuwu...sister, can I still have enough to eat in the future? Wuwuwu...sister, I'm scared."

The reason for fear turned out to be that he was afraid of not having enough to eat, and Ye Xiangxiang only thought it was funny.

But this is normal. He is only eight years old. He has been like a little adult along the way. Isn't he very wronged?
  He finally released his emotions. Seeing such an eight-year-old boy insisting on forcing himself to be strong, Ye Xiangxiang felt very sorry for him.

She reached out and touched Ye Lixuan's head and said firmly, "Yes, when we have a new home, you can eat whatever you want from now on, sister, I promise you."

Ye Lixuan couldn't bear it anymore and threw himself on her shoulder and cried loudly.

Everyone else also heard it, and they were a little more yearning for the long-awaited new home.

After a while, Ye Lixuan sniffed, "It seems to smell like steamed buns."

"Are you confused? Where did the steamed buns come from here?" Ye Xiangxiang found it funny.

He sniffed hard again, "It's true. If you don't believe it, just smell it."

Ye Xiangxiang also smelled it carefully and really smelled it.

She looked back and saw Meng Chang and Meng Tianlang coming from where they had just walked, each carrying a big baggage.

They untied the baggage, and inside it turned out to be white-flour steamed buns, and the aroma quickly spread out.

Meng Chang said, "We, grandfather and grandson, have done little work along the way and our clothes are relatively clean. We have just fallen behind a little. We went to the city to buy steamed buns. Everyone has them. Come and eat."

Upon hearing this, everyone couldn't bear it any longer and ran over one after another, each receiving a white-flour steamed bun.

They walked quickly, and the steamed buns were still hot and fragrant.

"Thank you Mr. Meng, thank you Mr. Meng."

"Thank you, thank you very much."

Everyone was thanking them, and Meng Chang smiled and told them not to be polite.

Meng Tianlang took a few steamed buns and handed one to Ye Lixuan. He immediately laughed and said, "Thank you, brother."

"You're welcome, eat quickly."

Ye Lixuan was so happy that he took the steamed bun to find his friend. Meng Tianlang sat next to Ye Xiangxiang and handed the steamed bun to her.

"Here, I see you are also very greedy. You are so hungry that you are licking your lips."

Ye Xiangxiang originally wanted to pick it up, but when he heard what he said, he felt a little embarrassed.

　I have been revising the article in the past two days, so I am writing slowly. Sorry.
