The next day, the butler of the general's mansion came to Xiao Baili and said that the food was ready.
Xiao Baili also knew that Ge Chunru was grounded and couldn't squeeze other people dry, so there was no point in staying in the general's mansion.
So she brought Xiao Erlang to the outside of the city to give porridge.
They gave porridge for several days.
It wasn't thin porridge, but was partially starchy.
In addition, everyone had a hot mixed grain bun.
Because of the heavy snow, some villagers were troubled and ran to the capital to seek shelter and beg.
They all gathered outside the city and became a group of refugees.
However, there weren't many people giving alms, so life was very difficult.
The emperor sent his people to stabilize the situation and help build a shack for them to stay.
Every day, some dry mixed-grain cakes were given out, but that was to ensure that they did not starve to death.
