A Farmer's Lady's Guide to Getting Rich

Chapter 427
Because of the cold weather in winter, beggars and refugees often died of freezing and starvation.So every year at this time, the government will set up a porridge shed outside the city to provide a bowl of thin porridge for those who have no food.The rich and capable households in the city will also take the opportunity to donate some.

When Changning's carriage passed by there, he saw Yun Xixi in front of a row of porridge sheds.

The Zhenbei Prince's Mansion also donated rice for the government's porridge donation. Changning himself really didn't have time to do it himself, so he didn't pay much attention when he saw it.It's just that Yun Xixi's porridge shed was too crowded, and the queue of victims was long, ten times the number of other porridge sheds. It was hard for her not to pay attention.

When I walked in, I found out that other porridge sheds only gave out porridge, but Yun Xixi's porridge shed also gave out padded clothes, and for young children and women, they also gave out quilts.

This is a great thing for those homeless people!Almost all of them don't have a decent warm clothing, let alone bedding, which is a luxury to them.

Seeing that someone posted this right now, beggars and refugees all rushed forward. If it weren't for the presence of soldiers to maintain order, looting would have been possible.

In front of the crowded team of victims, Chang Ning saw Yun Xixi, dressed very plainly in a thorn hairpin sarong, distributing cotton padded clothes to the victims by herself.

There is always a kind smile on her beautiful face, which makes her look extraordinarily gentle and moving.Someone took something and even claimed that she was a living Bodhisattva, but she just smiled, and she didn't know what she said after being far away?Even more admiration...

Chang Ning took a closer look, and saw that other people's porridge sheds had signboards erected to clearly state which prefecture they belonged to, but Yun Xixi's porridge shed had no name at all, it seemed that she was still doing good deeds anonymously!
Has Yun Xixi changed her personality?Chang Ning looked a little surprised.

But regardless of whether she changed it or not, doing good deeds has helped those poor people, which is commendable.

Chang Ning took a few glances and then put down the curtain.

"My lord, this servant is going to take a closer look!" Xiao Ling looked puzzled, and suddenly jumped off the carriage.

"Don't cause trouble!" Chang Ning knew that Xiao Ling found Yun Xixi disliked from the bottom of his heart, so he immediately instructed her.

Xiao Ling came back not long after she left, and said as soon as she got into the carriage: "Yun Xixi is really doing good deeds! The servant girl saw that the cotton coat was filled with real good cotton, not shoddy cotton Rags. There are at least thousands of poor people here, and she will get a lot of money if she distributes them like this for a day."

"It's always a good thing to help the poor!"

"Although her porridge shed has no name plate, the servant girl saw that several people were obviously not poor despite their shabby clothes. They kept introducing to the crowd, saying that this was the porridge shed set up by the county magistrate of Fuchang, the county magistrate In order to raise money to buy cotton-padded clothes, he spent all the money given by the emperor, and even sold his own clothes and jewelry. Now the people are full of praise for the kindness of the Fuchang county magistrate!"

Xiao Ling said angrily: "It seems that Yun Xixi's reputation was too bad some time ago, and she used this method to earn her own reputation!"

"Using this method is better than any other method!" Chang Ning still said: "Whatever her purpose is, it is a good thing to help the people."

"Well, anyway, we're going back to the Northwest after the Chinese New Year, so we can't get in the way of her!" Xiao Ling muttered a few words and let it go.

Yun Xixi had also seen Changning's carriage long ago.

As the eldest concubine of the Zhenbei Palace, Qin Changning was surrounded by guards when he went out, and the carriage was luxurious and spacious, with the badge of the Zhenbei Palace on the body. It was difficult for Yun Xixi to see such a grand entry into the city.

The moment she saw it, she bit her lips angrily.

Without Qin Changning...

She had thought about this assumption ten thousand times in her mind, and she still couldn't help thinking about it again.She felt that if there was no Qin Changning, she must be sitting in the carriage at this moment, and she could enjoy this noble life of being embraced by others, warm and comfortable.

Instead of running here in the cold to deal with a group of dirty and smelly beggars and refugees for the sake of a dirty reputation.Surrounded by the lowest class of people for the sake of showing, she was about to be suffocated to death by the foul smell of the filth that hadn't been bathed for a long time.

She stood here for a long time, her cheeks were red and swollen by the wind, her hands and feet were almost numb from the cold, and the thick and clumsy cotton padded clothes on her body made it difficult for her to move. How could it have the softness and warmth of mink fur?Qin Changning must be wearing mink fur!

Thinking of Qin Changning sitting in the carriage in brocade clothes, holding the stove and smelling the fragrance, living a luxurious and proud life... Yun Xixi wanted to go crazy with envy, and wanted to go crazy with resentment!
"Girl, girl, my cotton padded coat..." Just as she was in a daze, a refugee who was waiting to get his clothes couldn't help shouting.

"Give it to you!"

Nanny Gui hurriedly snatched the padded coat from Yun Xixi's hand and handed it over, and at the same time yelled loudly to help Yun Xixi: "The county lord has been busy for a long time, and he hasn't even eaten a meal. He must be exhausted. Hurry up." Take a rest and go!"

Yun Xixi woke up from her daze in an instant.

"I'm tired!" Suddenly she was in no mood to do anything good, so she boarded the carriage back home with the help of the maid.

"County Master Fuchang is such a good girl, why did she encounter such a thing!" Some people were very grateful to see Yun Xixi for doing such a good deed by herself, and couldn't help but regret it.

"That's right! But it doesn't look like she's pregnant, how can she stand here for a long time if she's pregnant?"

"It's just that I'm not pregnant. I heard that it's because of poor appetite that the doctor misdiagnosed her."

"Hey, which doctor can even diagnose this wrongly, isn't he going to kill the Fuchang County Lord!"

"Yes, yes, the county magistrate's fate is not good, otherwise she would not be able to marry with her background and appearance, what kind of man? Now I'm afraid I will have to live alone for the rest of my life!"

"so poor……"

The effect of doing good deeds is still obvious, and the people at the bottom quickly changed their attitudes, praising and sympathizing with Yun Xixi.

Because it was still early, after Changning's carriage entered the city, he didn't go back to the palace, but changed his way to Wendao Hall first.

It was almost the end of the year, and most of the students in the Wendao Hall had left, leaving only some whose homes were nearby.Elder Shen and the others were also considered free, and when they saw Chang Ning coming, they approached them warmly to say hello.

"Third cousin!"

Chang Ning saw the person he was looking for, Shen Yu, at a glance in the crowd.

This Shen Yu was the youngest son of Changning's uncle's family. None of the uncles and aunts wanted to come to the capital, so they only asked the sons to accompany Mr. Shen.Although Shen Yu is only 25 years old this year, he is bold, loyal and talented. He can be regarded as the leader of the younger generation of the Shen family.

Because of his admiration for Shen Yu's talent, Wei Wuqi used Shen Yu's name when he was in the northwest.

"It's such a cold day, why did the concubine Shizi come here, just as Changxi was thinking about her sister!"

Hearing Chang Ning calling him, Shen Yu immediately stepped forward cheerfully, and immediately grabbed Chang Xi who was running towards him with sharp eyesight and quick hands, and said: "The ground is slippery, be careful not to fall."
