Chapter 435: More And More Human-like

“What money? Why do we have to split the money?”

Some people’s minds were in a mess. When MO Ruyue announced the good news just now, they only heard that there was food and not money.

“You can’t do that, Lady Qin.”

The old man who maintained the order was surnamed Mi. He was the oldest among the survivors except for Deng Feng, and his words carried some weight.

“Lady Qin, we’re already content that you’re willing to share the most precious food with us, how can we still take your money!”

“That’s right. We can’t take your money. In the future, you two will still have to leave this place and continue to head north. There’s plenty of money that you can get. Don’t use it on us.”

Someone echoed, but he accidentally mentioned that MO Ruyue would eventually leave, which made all the survivors silent.

No one wanted to admit it, but they couldn’t avoid this fact.

Now that it was being mentioned, it was the same as facing that moment in advance.

“Since we can make the decision to split the money, we naturally consider ourselves first. As long as you guys live well, it will be worthy of our efforts.”

“I don’t know if the government’s rescue will arrive, and I don’t know when they will arrive. Maybe you won’t need this money for a long time, but… It’s better than nothing.”

“And since we’ve already brought up that matter, I’ll talk about it. After the spring sowing is over, Gu Ying and I will be leaving.”

This was a decision that MO Ruyue had made a long time ago. She was originally prepared to wait until the sowing was over, but now that she had the opportunity, there was no harm in saying it in advance.

Everyone looked at each other again. No one had expected to hear such unexpected news at such a happy time.

“Alright, we’ve already wasted too much of your time. Perhaps there are still relatives and friends waiting for you to meet up in the north. We’re really grateful and can’t force you to stay any longer.”

Uncle Mi forced a smile and said after a long while. Before he finished speaking, his eyes had already turned red.

“Well, alright, let’s not talk about this for now. Let’s follow the order just now. Everyone, come and collect your money. According to the number of people, everyone will get five taels of silver and ten taels of silver notes. Regardless of men, women, old and young, everyone will receive it.”

While MO Ruyue was speaking, Gu Ying had already walked into the carriage and carried out the only remaining small box.

When the lid was opened, it revealed a thick stack of silver notes and a small mountain of broken silver.

Of course, not all of the silver notes that MO Ruyue received were ten taels. She had exchanged them from her own safe.

The sound of people swallowing their saliva came from the crowd. Even after the natural disaster, some people still couldn’t help but show their desire to keep the money for themselves when they saw it.

These people had never seen so much silver and silver notes piled together before. Even if it was just a pile of broken silver, five taels of silver each added up was not a small sum.

“Ten… Fifteen taels of silver? Too much, there’s really too much!”

Uncle MI’s lips and hands were trembling.

He had been the first to receive the food just now, and now he was the first to receive the silver.

When MO Ruyue placed the silver pieces and silver notes in his hands, his hands trembled so much that he almost dropped the silver pieces to the ground.

“Not much, but when everything returns to normal in the future, it can help you get through the most difficult time.”

MO Ruyue helped him close his hands and held the silver inside properly as he consoled him in a warm voice.

The people behind him had already consciously lined up, and at this time, they were waiting quietly without making a noise. No one showed any impatience.

After sending Uncle Mi off, the distribution ceremony seemed to be even faster.

Everyone received their own share of the money, not even a child was left behind.

This time, no one continued to stay in the square. Instead. as soon as they received the money, they immediately took their food and hurried home.

Very quickly, the survivors had all left, leaving only MO Ruyue and Gu Ying standing in the carriage.

“Alright, I’ve finished distributing the items. It turns out that it’s not only good to earn money, but it’s even better to distribute money.”

MO Ruyue’s emotional sigh made Gu Ying laugh. “You used to be very good at giving out money. You spent hundreds of thousands of dollars a night, but you didn’t look so emotional.”

“Hey, you can say whatever you want, but why did you have to expose me!”

MO Ruyue said with a deliberately startled tone, but the smile in her eyes betrayed her true feelings.

“Okay, I won’t say anything. I’m the one who spent hundreds of thousands of Yuan a night. I’m self-exposing.”

Gu Ying said dotingly.

As long as MO Ruyue was happy, he wouldn’t mind even if he had to go to heaven or to hell. It wasn’t difficult for him to change his words and mock himself.

“But in your opinion, people’s desire for money still prevailed. When we were distributing the grain, they still had the mood to thank me. Now that they’ve received the money, they’re in a hurry to go back and hide. How interesting.”

When MO Ruyue thought of the scene she had just seen, a new emotion rose in her heart.

“That’s normal. People will starve to death without food, and they will also starve to death without money. However, in comparison, when food is satisfied, the desire for money will emerge and prevail.”

“Fifteen taels of silver is enough for a family of five to live comfortably for two to three years. This is a huge sum of money, so of course it has to be carefully hidden.”

When Gu Ying said this, he suddenly seemed to hesitate.

“What’s the matter? You seem to have something to say.”

MO Ruyue keenly sensed that he wanted to say something but stopped, so she took the initiative to ask, “If you have something to say, just say it. What else do you need to consider?”

“Bing ‘Er, it’s good that you give everyone the money equally, but isn’t that a hidden danger?”

“I mean, there are young children and elderly people among them. Do they really have the ability to keep the money that belongs to them?”

As Gu Ying spoke, his voice gradually became softer. Looking at MO Ruyue’s half-smile, he couldn’t help but touch her face.

“What’s wrong? Is there a flower on my face?”

“No, but it’ll be soon!”

MO Ruyue burst out laughing and reached out to hold his arm.

“Gu Ying, haven’t you realized that you’re becoming more and more humane?

Even the long words you said just now were for the sake of others.” “In the past, besides me, who else did you care about?”

“Bing ‘Er, you’re number one in my heart now, and you’ll always be!”

Gu Ying clearly misunderstood MO Ruyue’s words and immediately expressed his attitude.

MO Ruyue listened to his confession and the dimples on her face deepened. She looked even sweeter.

The survivors’ village was particularly lively that night. As soon as night fell, a bonfire was lit at the entrance of the village.

The villagers gathered around the bonfire, sometimes talking and laughing, sometimes dancing.

In the south, some ethnic groups would dance to the moon during the Harvest Festival. They would also drink large bowls of wine and eat large mouthfuls of meat to vent the joy of the harvest.

After the natural disaster, the survivors had been living in poverty and despair.

If they weren’t lucky enough to meet Lady Qin again, they would probably have turned into a pile of white bones by now.

After experiencing the life-and-death escape outside the small town, they were actually very content to be able to settle down in this small village.

Who knew that there would be a surprise after this?

When Lady Qin and Young Master Ying went out once, they would bring back a large number of life-saving food and a certain amount of money. For the survivors, this was of course a great news as if they had been reborn..
