Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

At this time, all the survivors in the village had gathered and were waiting for her to announce the good news.

“Has everyone arrived?”

She did a quick headcount and confirmed that everyone was present except for Deng Feng.

“We’re all here, we’re all here. Lady Qin, what good news do you have? Just tell us quickly. Our hearts are so itchy that grass is about to grow out!”

Someone said impatiently, causing a burst of laughter at the same time. “Alright. What I want to tell everyone is that we’ve obtained a batch of emergency food and money.”

MO Ruyue announced the news very quickly. At the same time, she was carefully observing everyone’s reaction.

“Really? You got food again?”

Almost everyone’s eyes lit up at the same time. Their attention was focused on the food, and no one noticed that MO Ruyue had also mentioned the word “money.”

“Lady Qin, is what you said true? We, we have food again?”

It was the same old man who had helped maintain order before, and he repeated the topic again.

“Yes, we have food. The amount this time is enough for you to last until the first harvest.”

MO Ruyue’s answer once again made everyone hold their breath. After a few short seconds, a burst of enthusiastic cheers immediately erupted.

“That’s great, we’re saved!”

“We have food! We all have food!”

“Lady Qin and Young Master Ying are our living Bodhisattvas. They have saved us again and again. We can’t repay this kindness in all our lives!”

The cheers were so loud that they almost broke through the sky. Everyone was shouting, laughing, and clapping with all their might. There were even people who had long since burst into tears and were constantly wiping away their tears.

When MO Ruyue saw how happy they were, she also felt a wave of emotion in her heart. She couldn’t help but be infected by this lively atmosphere.

She didn’t regret saving these people at all, nor did she regret wasting too much time because of them.

Other than the woman who had been left outside the small town forever, the rest of the people were almost all united in order to survive. They were family members of different surnames who were tightly twisted into a rope.

Their happiness now was so simple and pure. In their eyes, there was only food that could save their lives. They couldn’t even find anyone who cared about the stench of money.

“I’m thinking of distributing the food according to the number of people today. As long as the condition of the land outside the village allows it, we can start the spring plowing. The earlier we sow, the earlier we can harvest.”

MO Ruyue immediately pushed open the carriage door, revealing a high pile of food bags that were stuffed full.

As for the valuables and treasures, other than a small box of silver and silver notes, the rest had long been put away by MO Ruyue in the space.

“We didn’t know we were going to get food, so we didn’t prepare anything.”

When one of the survivors saw that they were going to be distributed food, he was so anxious that he felt all over his body, as if he could make a sack out of thin air.

“I forgot to tell you just now. I wanted to give you a surprise. Then everyone, go get some bags and wooden buckets. We’ll try to divide the food before dark.”

MO Ruyue also felt that she had been too thoughtless just now. Now, she had to make this group of people go home again.

Fortunately, everyone’s enthusiasm was high now. MO Ruyue hadn’t finished speaking when the crowd dispersed, each hurriedly going home to get a container.

“Ying, didn’t we just divide the food? You pretend to be the one who remembers, and we’ll work together.”

MO Ruyue took advantage of this gap to warn Gu Ying.

“No problem. Just do as we’ve prepared.”

When Gu Ying was distributing the food to the women, he had already calculated the total weight, type, and individual weight of all the food.

It was to quickly distribute the food when such a situation occurred.

Soon, the survivors who went to retrieve the containers returned.

Everyone was carrying gunny sacks and buckets, and even the worst of them was carrying a dustpan. All of them were in high spirits, and their faces were red, as if they were celebrating the New Year again.

With MO Ruyue and Gu Ying’s current hand sensitivity, their estimation of the weight would not be off by more than a few grams, so they did not even use any measuring tools.

Out of trust and gratitude, none of the survivors raised any objections.

No matter who took more or less, the food would be split among the entire village. Of course, the more effort they put in, the more they would get.

Everyone was very satisfied with this distribution method.

MO Ruyue didn’t know how long their unity would last, or if there would be conflicts of interest in the future, or if there would be internal disorganization and the possibility of falling apart.

But at least for now, such a situation was impossible. And for things that were uncertain in the future, she and Gu Ying couldn’t control them for so long.

The food in the carriage was decreasing rapidly. Everyone who received the food was beaming with joy. When it was their turn to receive the food, they would be deeply grateful to MO Ruyue and express their gratitude.

MO Ruyue had already heard countless thank yous. Even though she only had a faint smile on her face, the muscles on her face were starting to become stiff and numb.

She couldn’t even open her mouth to let out a “welcome” anymore, so in the end, she simply smiled in response.

That was why it was said that it was hard to be a good person, but easy to be an evil person.

Now, she was clearly doing a good deed, but she was more tired than doing evil. This situation was really too strange.

Finally, the last bag of food was finished. The last survivor who received the food didn’t complain because he was the last to receive it. Instead, he thanked MO Ruyue.

“Lady Qin, you’re really a Bodhisattva who has descended from the heavens to the mortal world. It’s all thanks to you and Young Master Ying that we’re able to survive. It’s hard to repay such a great favor. In the future, we’ll work like your cows and horses for the two of you, and we’ll have no complaints!”

His oath attracted a lot of agreement.

All the people who had received the food did not leave. Instead, they stood in place and waited.

Although MO Ruyue didn’t know what they were waiting for, she couldn’t pretend to be indifferent when she saw them saying that they wanted to repay the favor.

“If all of you can live well and support each other to live on, then you’ll be repaying me and Gu Ying. After all, this is the reason we saved you.”

With MO Ruyue’s current ability, she could get anything she wanted. She didn’t care about getting any favor repaid.

“Don’t worry, we’ve all gone through life and death together, we’re already a family. We’re a family, so we’ll all live well!”

Everyone nodded in agreement. This made MO Ruyue also nod in satisfaction.

“Then, let’s split the money.”

“We still need to split the money?”

When the survivors heard this, they were all stunned.

It was already hard enough to distribute the food with them, and now they had to distribute the money?
