The life of a peasant girl reborn

Chapter 362 The Appearance of Gu Poison (1)
It is worth mentioning that compared with the previous behavior of the prince to send food, those victims did not have much expectation for the relief food from the court, and they did not have much gratitude to General Liu Xiong who escorted the food. The food delivered can keep them from going hungry for three months.The victims also had a heart, they only knew that if the prince hadn't sent food in advance.Shen Chaoqiu and others sent food, they could not survive the arrival of the imperial court's disaster relief food.

General Liu Xiong is a member of the King of Qi, and this trip can be said to be fruitless.The disaster victims' attitude towards Liu Xiong was also very perfunctory. In private, some people still secretly scolded Liu Xiong for not being a good person, because Liu Xiong always used the name of King Qi intentionally or unintentionally when distributing food. The grateful victims were ruthlessly annoyed.

With food, food and clothing were solved, no longer starved to death, and the disaster area began to slowly rebuild.In order to allow the victims to rebuild their houses, the prince took advantage of the grain merchants to find fault with the Fuyuan Restaurant and severely punished them, and the money obtained was distributed to the victims.

It turned out that the shopkeeper Hong'an of the Fuyuan Restaurant provided food to the prince in private, but it was finally exposed by someone. The garden restaurant was smashed.Seeing such a situation, shopkeeper Hong An couldn't solve it, so he had to go to the prince to complain, who made this matter for the prince.

Hearing Hong An's shopkeeper's complaint, Murong Qingfeng was completely annoyed. The behavior of those grain merchants touched his bottom line this time.Before those grain merchants colluded together to drive up grain prices, Murong Qingfeng did not bother them with the idea of ​​doing business without profiteers, and did not use power to suppress people even when there was a shortage of grain.Let them open warehouses for disaster relief, but those of them don't know what to do, they don't have good intentions and they don't allow others to show kindness, and they combined to find trouble in Fuyuan Restaurant.

In order to express this anger, Murong Qingfeng's punishment this time can be said to be severe enough, as long as the grain merchants involved in the disturbance were all fined, each of them handed over 20 taels of silver, excluding their compensation to Fuyuan Restaurant for redecoration of silver taels.

On the fifth day of the seventh month, the prince's handwritten letter was sent to the Dragon Table of the Holy Majesty, which described in detail the events in the disaster area in the south of the Yangtze River, including the disaster relief measures proposed by Shen Chaoqiu.The deceitful behavior of officials in Jinghu County.Disaster relief arrangements...

Before noon, the news of the prince's handwritten letter spread throughout the capital, and the prince, Shen Chaoqiu and others were also praised by many people, and of course some privately scolded them.No matter what, at least on the surface everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and the dark clouds over the heads of the people in the capital also lifted.

The holy dragon was overjoyed, and he said that when the prince and others returned to the capital, they would be rewarded for their merits, regardless of their size.

On the seventh day of July, Shen Xuan left the city by car early in the morning to go to another courtyard.The matter in the disaster area is settled, and Shen Chaoqiu will return to the capital soon. After hiding it for so long, Shen Xuan decided to go to the Zhou family to tell the latest news today, so as not to worry them all day.

Although Shen Xuan has been living in the mansion recently, she knows something about the state of mind of the Zhou family and others through the hidden guards. They know that Zhou and the others spend most of their time working in the fields on Zhuangzi, but they still stop when they are free. I couldn't help worrying about Shen Chaoqiu who was walking outside.

The carriage soon arrived at the other courtyard, probably because it was a festival, and it was rare for the members of the Zhou family not to work in the fields.Hearing Shen Xuan's arrival, all the young and old in the Shen family were very happy.

"Grandpa, grandma, father, mother, you are all here!" Shen Xuan walked into the hall of the front yard and greeted the four elders sitting there.

"Hey, Miss Xuan is here." Grandma Shen replied with a smile all over her face. Although Grandpa Shen sitting next to her didn't speak, her eyes were full of joy.

"Sit down quickly, drink some herbal tea to relieve the heat." Zhou asked Shen Xuan to sit down beside her.He held a teacup to her.

"Mother, I'm not hot. Don't worry, I won't suffer from heatstroke in this weather." Shen Xuan found a chair to sit down and took the teacup.He opened his mouth and answered.

"Your mother is worried about you, and she has been talking about it these days." Father Shen interjected, his tone and eyes expressing a strong father's love.

"Father, I see, thank you for telling me this." Shen Xuan turned her head to reply to Father Shen, and then drank the herbal tea in her hand upwards.

"You chat with your mother first, and father will cut a watermelon for you." Father Shen said, got up and walked out of the hall after speaking.

"Second brother, wait a minute, dad will go and have a look." Before Shen Xuan could reply, Grandpa Shen asked, stood up while speaking, picked up the cigarette stick on the table and walked out.The old man also loves his granddaughter, so of course he has to join in the fun.

Seeing the back of the father and father leaving together, Shen Xuan was moved in her heart, and Shen Xuan could feel the love of her family for her.Although the current Shen family is no longer the farmer they used to be, Grandpa Shen and Father Shen did not abandon the good qualities of the farm family. They are still willing to do everything by themselves to show their feelings instead of using gold and silver.Good items are used to reward the younger generation and give the younger generation material love.

"Grandpa and Dad, you really love me! You have to go to cut a watermelon yourself." Shen Xuan turned her head and said to Grandma Shen and Zhou Shi showing off.

"You girl, only your grandfather and your father love you, so don't I and your mother love you?" Grandma Shen joked with a smile in her eyes, and pulled Zhou Shi to express the old man's jealous behavior.

"It hurts, it hurts, I am the most favored in our family." Shen Xuan heard Grandma Shen's "questioning." She quickly answered, telling the facts.After speaking, he made a face at Grandma Shen, showing off his extraordinary status in the family.

"You girl, you're almost married, and you're still playing around with your grandma." Seeing Shen Xuan's small movements, Zhou said in a gentle tone.

"Mother!" Hearing Zhou's mention of the fact of being married, Shen Xuan's rare face became shy, and she shyly shouted at Zhou.Hearing the word married, Shen Xuan instinctively thought of Xue Yaoxi. Recently, because everyone was panicked by the incident in the disaster area, the two of them didn't have much time to meet each other, but as long as they met, their relationship would deepen. layer.

Seeing Shen Xuan's youngest daughter's expression, Grandma Shen and Mrs. Zhou looked at each other and smiled unkindly.

The next time, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.grandparents.Mother and daughter, the three of them happily chatted about homework.Not long after, Father Shen returned to the hall with a sliced ​​watermelon, and Grandpa Shen followed behind.With the addition of these two men, there are even more topics to talk about.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Shen Xuan briefly mentioned the matter of her elder brother Qiu Ge in the disaster area, and told her family that her elder brother would return to the capital in a short time.Hearing Shen Xuan say that the matter in the disaster area has been resolved, everyone finally let go of their worries. As for the fact that Shen Chaoqiu will be able to see Shen Chaoqiu in more than ten days, everyone didn't care.People didn't ask much about the disaster area. What they really worried about were their relatives.
