Chapter 183

It's not that he thinks his sister is bad, it's that he thinks his sister is too good. Although the sickly eldest son has a good family background and has an excellent skin, but other than that, he is not worthy of his sister at all.

His sister deserves better.

"Master, this old servant feels that it's not just His Royal Highness Wang Shizi who has taken a fancy to our lady, but our lady treats him, I'm afraid..." Xia He is the daughter of a boudoir after all, so it's inconvenient for Mr. Hu to say it too bluntly .

After hearing Hulao's words, Xia Tingquan immediately stopped pretending, and lowered his voice to train him. "Old Tiger, what nonsense are you talking about? My sister can see him!"

As for that sick ghost, can her sister take a liking to him? !
His sister is such a blind person!
Tiger Elder: ...

Is it a matter of vision?

Besides, based on Mr. Hu's countless experience in reading people, he felt that apart from his poor health, the son of the world was quite a good person.

I didn't see that he was cold to everyone, but whenever his young lady appeared, Mr. Hu felt that his whole body warmed up.

"Old Tiger! You said that you are so busy all day long, why do you still have time to mess around with mandarin ducks!" Xia Tingquan shook his head helplessly, staggered away from Elder Hu, and went to the backyard as well.

Hu Lao looked at his back and was speechless for a while.

He was suddenly worried about his young master's observation skills.

He is usually very smart, why is he so blind in this kind of thing.

What can I do if I meet a Xinyi woman in the future.

backyard.

When Xia He arrived, he saw Ye Jiu was sitting behind the desk, flipping through a medical book casually.

There are two exquisite snacks and a small plate of preserved fruit on the desk in front of him.

Xia He thinks about the patients in the pharmacy, and thinks about the food shortage in the whole of Kyoto. I have to say that it is good to be in a high position!

No one can starve them if they are hungry.

"I'm back." Ye Jiu put down the book in his hand.

"Ah."

Xia He walked over and washed his hands with the juice, and washed them again with hot water.Going back to the desk, sat down opposite him, picked up the pastry in front of him and devoured it.

Ye Jiu glanced at her, and silently moved the plate in front of her. "Why, go to Shuntian Mansion, Hong Xin can still ignore the food."

Are you so stingy!

Xia He sighed faintly. "The food in Shuntian Mansion is also in short supply. Mr. Hong hasn't found a place to buy food yet, even he himself is drinking porridge."

Not to mention, the clear porridge is really clear, and Xia He has no appetite at all.

I was thinking about the food in Liuheting, so I came back.

Ye Jiu also knew how food was in short supply, so instead of laughing at Hong Xin, she cared about Xia He. "Right now, Liuheting has enough food."

Xia He was very grateful when he heard this. "Since Steward Wang ordered someone to deliver the food, it's barely passable."

Speaking of this, Xia He felt ashamed.

Originally, when she donated the food to the imperial court, the leftover food left was enough for Zhongyibo Mansion, Liuhe Court, and Wang Shizi Mansion.

Unexpectedly, Steward Wang told Xia Tingquan that the prince's mansion had enough food, and Xia Tingquan changed hands to replace refined grains with ordinary rice grains and sold them to Xia Shiheng.

Now under the name of Liuheting Pharmacy, more than [-] typhoid patients are admitted.The food for these people is arranged by Liuheting.

There were more than 2000 more mouths at once, and the food reserved by Liuheting soon bottomed out in an unforeseen way.

Ye Jiu knew about this, and knew that these patients were all weak and in urgent need of strengthening their bodies.So he divided half of the food stored in Ruyilou and the remaining food in Wang Shizi's mansion.

"Steady first, it will be New Year's Eve soon. Wait until the year turns to see if the weather will get better." In the past, the weather would get warmer in the ten days after New Year's Eve every year, and Yejiu hopes that this year will be no exception.

"If the weather doesn't change after New Year's Eve, will someone be starved to death by..."?
Xia He didn't say the last two words, but she believed that Ye Jiu could understand.

Without importing food and medicinal materials from outside, Xia He worried whether the capital city could continue to support it.

In her memory, after New Year's Eve, there was heavy snowfall in the capital city for four or five days. That was the coldest winter since she could remember.

Ye Jiu was silent for a while, and returned to her. "Won't."

Xia He was puzzled after hearing what he said.

In the past few days, she has also been puzzled. In her previous life, how did the big capital city survive without so much food and medicinal materials that she had stored in large quantities.

Seeing her tilting her head and looking at her longingly, Ye Jiu felt that she was very cute and well-behaved.

He stretched out his hand to hold her, Xia He got up cooperatively, walked around behind the desk, Ye Jiu pulled her, and she sat in his arms.

Ye Jiu put his chin on her head. "There is still a granary in the hands of the imperial court, and the emperor has not opened the granary to release the granary yet!"

When Xia He heard it, he quickly understood.

She said with some air. "If I knew it earlier, I should let the court release the food first."

She was so stupid that she donated the food early, and her life was very difficult and difficult.

Ye Jiu sneered on top of her head. "Who do you think Zhao Zheng is? A person like him will never provide food until the last moment."

"So, he will turn a blind eye to the sufferings of the people, just waiting for all the merchants, aristocratic families, and prominent families in the capital to consume all the pure food they can have." Xia He asked.

"Yeah." Ye Jiu nodded, quite proudly.

His woman is smart and knows everything.

"But the ones who can save some food in the end are definitely aristocratic families. How can these poor people make it through. Wait and see, I'm afraid some of the poor people who can't stand it will starve to death!" Xia He thought of that possibility, I just feel like my heart is blocked.

Ye Jiu's eyes darkened. "He was able to sit in that position by virtue of being ruthless."

Ye Jiu didn't know when it started. The topics between the two of them became more and more unscrupulous and unscrupulous. There was no hiding in front of her.

Xia He took a cold breath, thinking of Zhao Zheng who was sitting in the imperial study that day.

She firmly believed that he was the one who had the heart to step on other people's corpses to climb up.

Such a selfish and conceited person would really not pay attention to the death of a few civilians.

For a while, Xia He felt extremely sad and uncomfortable, and didn't want to say anything.

"Don't think about it, you've done your best and you've done a good job." Although Ye Jiu didn't know why Liuheting had collected so much food and medicinal materials this time, the facts were in front of him. His charitable deeds, providing food and medicinal materials, and attending clinics, indeed saved the people from the fire and water, and saved many people.

Xia He nodded, but was in no mood to say anything else.

She has tried her best.

Seeing that she was extremely depressed, Ye Jiu felt a little distressed, and suddenly thought of a way to divert her mood.

I saw him hugging her into his arms, making someone sit sideways in his arms, and then pressed his lips.

Xia He responded habitually.
