The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor

Chapter 43 Dividing land to build houses and repairs

Most of the refugees who poured into the capital took the rations distributed by the government and knelt down to worship at the Eastern Palace. After thanking the Holy Grace, they returned to their hometowns happily with their families.

The remaining half left the refugee camp with just enough food to last until the beginning of next spring, returned to the previously allocated place, built mud houses, cleared the wasteland, and started a new life.

"Master, the case of corruption in the southern government involved hundreds of officials!" At this point, Xiao Shiyi pointed upward: "The man who issued three imperial edicts in succession to reprimand Prince Jing, and then took over the errands of Prince Jing's household department. , to make him shut up and think about his mistakes, why don’t we take the opportunity..."

"No need!" Xiao Ruiyuan narrowed his eyes slightly: "Prince Jing's faction is the most involved in the case of corruption in the south, but the other princes may not be clean either. In order to pluck themselves out, someone will naturally jump out to make trouble with Prince Jing!"

"It's my master's opinion!" Xiao Shiyi chuckled, flattered, and then said angrily: "Prince Jing ended up like this, it's not unfair at all! If he hadn't tacitly allowed his confidants to greedy Mo for disaster relief food, the disaster-stricken people would have been forced to live If you don't go down, how can you start a rebellion? What's even more annoying is that he actually colluded with the second young master to intercept and kill you, and wanted to destroy the evidence. If you hadn't been lucky and lucky, they would have succeeded!"

Speaking of this "Second Young Master", Xiao Shiyi's expression was very disdainful. In order to seize the title of Crown Prince from his master, this "Second Young Master" had been jumping up and down for many years without making any progress, and he even got involved with the prince. What does this have to do with committing suicide? the difference?

Thinking of this half-brother, Xiao Ruiyuan subconsciously held the wound on his abdomen that had not yet healed, and smiled coldly. He had not paid attention to this kind of idiot, but Prince Jing had to get rid of it. Relying on the fact that he was the eldest son of the emperor, he thought that as soon as the prince died, he would be the crown prince. He didn't want to touch him at first, but he acted more and more arrogantly, opposed the prince at every turn, and even tried to kill him to silence him. If that's the case, then what? He doesn't need to be polite anymore, it will be a disaster if this person remains.

"I was the one who exposed the corruption case, and it was the prince who won that praise. King Huai and those people will not let it go, and my good brother will not rest in peace either. You have people watch them carefully. If there is any trouble, Report immediately!"

Xiao Shishi looked solemn, cupped his hands and said, "I accept your orders!" After saying that, he quietly retreated and conveyed his master's instructions to the secret posts in each house.

With one person missing, the huge study became even more deserted.

Xiao Ruiyuan opened the latest secret message and looked at the contents, his eyes became more unpredictable. It seemed that he had made the right move in exposing the corruption case!

The prince was assassinated when he was young, and his roots were damaged. He was judged not to live past the age of twenty-five. Now the prince is already twenty-three, but he has no heirs, and his health is getting worse. When he went south to quell the chaos, he had no time to care about the prince. Those people began to make moves again. In the face of the national crisis, they actually encouraged that person to establish a new prince to consolidate the country's foundation.

If the case of corruption had not been exposed, and it was the prince's suggestion to distribute the disaster relief food that had been stolen by corruption to the refugees in the suburbs of Beijing, and to resettle the refugees who were unwilling to return home, the prince would have gained a good reputation as a virtuous and kind person. I'm afraid I really can't keep my position!

Thinking of this, the chill in Xiao Ruiyuan's eyes almost solidified! As long as he, Xiao Ruiyuan, is still here and the prince's life is safe, he will never allow anyone to interfere with the position of crown prince!

 …

No matter how turbulent the court was, it could not affect Mo Yan. At this time, she was like a hard-working little bee, writing and drawing on the drawings in preparation for building a house next spring.

 The reason why they chose to build a house in the spring next year is because their family wants to build a brick house. The weather is too cold now and it is easy to freeze, so it is not suitable for building a house.

Looking at the drawings that could find no faults in every aspect, Mo Yan imagined what the house would look like after it was built, and couldn't help but smile happily.

Mo Qingze entered the room and looked at his eldest daughter sitting at the desk with a silly smile. He couldn't bear to look directly at her, so he had to interrupt loudly: "Yan'er, just now my father went to Liuyang Village and met Brother Lin who was leading I was cutting down wood to build a house, and when I learned that we were going to build a house next spring, I wanted to prepare the wood we needed. Dad thinks this is fine, what do you think?"

Mo Yan came back to his senses, thought for a while and said: "We need a lot of wood, so let them build their own houses first and then help us cut the wood. But Dad, their life is not easy now. When the time comes, we will You have to settle wages with them!”

Mo Qingze nodded, and the smile on his face faded a little: "Dad means the same thing. It's so cold now. I saw that they don't even have any clothes to keep out the cold. It's hard for adults to resist, but it's hard for the elderly and children." Got it!"

Mo Yan felt uncomfortable when she heard this. She hesitated for a while and then expressed her thoughts: "Dad, what Brother Lin and his family are short of most now is food and cotton. In addition to the money for buying foundations and building houses, our family still has money left. There is a lot of money. Our family will build a house next spring, and we will definitely ask Brother Lin for help. I think we can buy some cotton cloth and grain for them, and let them work to pay for it. This will not only help people, but also It won’t hurt their face.”

Mo Yan thought about these things for a long time. Previously, she planted nearly ten acres of cotton in the space. She picked it all in the past two days and stored it in the space. Based on her experience in growing cotton in her previous life, she roughly estimated that it should be six thousand kilograms. .

These cottons were originally prepared for the Lin family who returned home. Now that they don't go back, she doesn't think of a good way to give them to them. After all, cotton is much more precious than potatoes and sweet potatoes. If she bought it with money, Lin Yong would definitely not accept it, but if it was paid for with their labor, they would definitely be willing.

Mo Qingze thought for a moment and thought this was a good idea: "Okay, when they return to the outskirts of the city in the evening, dad will go over and tell Brother Lin that after we have dinner, we will go to the street to buy cotton and grain first."

In the past few days, the Lin family's house has not been built yet, and there is no place for them to live in Liuyang Village. They can only temporarily live in the house they lived in before.

Seeing that his father agreed, Mo Yan felt relieved, and he could now use up some of the mountains of food in the space!

 Just how to get rid of the father and transport the food and cotton from the space? Mo Yan couldn't help but feel a little distressed.

After lunch, while Mo Qingze was taking a nap, Mo Yan explained to the others, then left the house and went straight to the room she rented. After entering the house, she was about to take out the cotton and grain. Little did she know that the connection between her and the space was actually broken, and she couldn't take out the things at all.

She quickly spread her right hand and found that the ancient jade mark was still firmly occupying the palm of her hand. The space was still there, but she couldn't make contact. There was only one possibility!

Thinking of the only possibility, Mo Yan felt as if he had been hit by a cash prize worth tens of millions. After being shocked, all that was left in his heart was ecstasy: the space is actually being upgraded...
