A Military Doctor Became a Stepmom in Ancient Times

One ingot of silver could allow ordinary families to obtain a lot. The old beggar and his granddaughter looked sallow and thin. With this silver, how much food could they buy?

“Yueyue, you think too well of human nature,” Jiang Ying said.

In her impression, Ning Yue was the kind of person who knew how to plan ahead. Naturally, she knew her limits, but this time, she was wrong.

!!

When Ning Yue heard this, blood rushed to her head. Was it wrong for her to do a good deed? Did she treat everyone as bad people to guard against?

“Do I have to be told what I’m doing?” Ning Yue asked.

“Since you won’t listen now, let’s see what will happen. Ah Da!” he shouted at Ah Da.

“Heir.” Ah Da stood respectfully.

“Go and give this silver to that old beggar,” Jiang Ying said.

Ah Da took the silver and walked to the old beggar, handing it out.

The old beggar was frightened by Ah Da’s actions and looked at him in disbelief. “Master, what crime have I committed?” the old beggar asked with a trembling voice.

“Grandma, my master asked me to give this to you. Take it,” Ah Da said.

When the old beggar heard this, he trembled even more in fear.

Seeing that she did not take it, Ah Da stuffed the silver into the old beggar’s hand. “This is from my master. If you don’t want it, throw it away.”

The old woman held the silver and felt even worse when she saw that her grandson was starving.

She couldn’t throw the silver in her hand away or accept it.

The guard had already walked away. The old beggar gritted her teeth and accepted the silver.

Her grandson loved meat the most. Seeing her grandson swallow his saliva, the old beggar couldn’t help but hug her grandson and sob with heartache.

Ning Yue saw this scene. She asked Jiang Ying, “You just gave the silver to this grandparent and grandson. They’ll be full tonight.”

Jiang Ying suddenly said, “Do you think this is the end?”

“What do you mean?” Ning Yue suddenly had a bad feeling.

“Keep watching,” he said, and Ah Da returned to the carriage.

The people on the east street could no longer see Ah Da, so they all rushed to the old beggar’s side and snatched her silver.

“Old woman! You ate my bun and received a reward. Why don’t you die!”

“The silver should be split equally between all of us. We should share blessings and difficulties here!”

“You want to keep the silver for yourself? How selfish!”

When Ning Yue heard what this group of people had said when they attacked the old beggar, she hurriedly wanted to go forward to check the situation, but she was stopped by Jiang Ying.

“I’ve already asked you just now. Have you thought about the consequences of this matter? You said that I have no sympathy, but do you see the consequences now?” Jiang Ying said.

“You knew about this situation long ago?” Ning Yue asked.

“I can guess. As this place is divided into slums, the human nature here is a little more complicated than we thought,” Jiang Ying said.

Ning Yue frowned. She did not think that everyone was the same. “There will always be people of good character among these beggars. They’re all useful people. Perhaps I can help them in other ways!”

Jiang Ying was shocked. That’s right, why hadn’t he thought of that?

It was indeed possible to develop this place. When the time came, he would put the homeless together. If he asked them to work and give them money, they would definitely agree.

Seeing that everyone could eat and wear warm clothes, he was still very happy and shocked.

He took a deep breath. This time, he had time to size up the scene on East Street.

Actually, the location of the slum was still alright. It was directly connected to Lucky Town.

With this superior geographical location, she determined that East Street would be a very prosperous street after it developed.

With this thought, Ning Yue had an idea.

Ning Yue sighed. After getting Ah Da to help the grandmother and grandson resolve their difficulties, she got the coachman to drive back to the Fenghua Pavilion.

After sorting out her emotions, she looked at her plans for the day and realized that there were more orders these past few days.

With more money, her mood improved a lot.

Suddenly, she found a very special order among all the orders.
