Within a few days, the white steward found and cleaned up the house, and Lu Shuo briefly told the dozen or so women about their placement.

This house Lu Shuo has already bought, specially for shelter, after living in, in addition to giving each of them a month of silver in the first month, they will have to rely on their self-reliance in the future, and live by learning crafts from their masters and making finished products to sell for money.

Each of them had to pay 20 percent of the silver they earned each month for the maintenance of their houses and taxes, and the rest went to them all for themselves. It is up to these women to decide whether they go or stay in the future, but if they do not heed the advice and do something wrong, they will be sent away if they do not listen to the advice.

This is Lu Shuo's temporary idea, people are greedy creatures, they can help, they can help, but there must be principles and norms, otherwise this shelter will be difficult to maintain for a long time.

And this shelter in Changping County can be regarded as a test site for him, and the rules will be slowly revised according to the situation in the future, and when it is accepted by people in the future and the procedures are mature, and then promoted with the help of the Lu family, if it can benefit a woman, he will help one more woman, and it can be regarded as he did not come to this world in vain.

This arrangement, the dozen or so women are already very grateful, and they have already seen through the faces of the family these days, except for the two who are really loved by the family, and Lu Shuo sent someone to inquire and did not see them abused after they went back, the rest of the people all stayed, and this time they will go to the shelter together.

The shelter is huge, located in the city, next to the Charity Hall, and is a very safe place. When the girls arrived at the shelter, Mr. Jiji, who had been hired before, had already arrived, and arranged for them to clean up for a day, and the next day they began to inquire and see what these women were suitable for.

Lu Shuo did not deliberately hide these actions from others, and at night the prince and the staff were talking in the study, and the staff inadvertently mentioned it, saying that although this Lu Shuo is young, he is a safe one, although this Changping County is not very big, there are many forces in it, but Lu Shuo can calm down these forces by himself, and concentrate on doing some good things for the people, so that this Changping County will prosper a lot. Although the recent incident of the shelter seems to them to be a bit deviant, after all, the behavior of sheltering women in this way is also an inadvertent encouragement for women to rebel against their husbands' families, but their courage is commendable, and if this shelter continues to be run for a long time, it will not leave a mark in the history books.

The prince didn't speak, but smiled and said, "Hou Ye Lu is naturally intelligent, so he is naturally omnipotent. ”

The prince was entrenched in Changping County for another half a month, during which the southern Yunnan side wrote back, saying that the fat man's words were credible, and specially sent one of his fellow senior brothers over, and the fat man was even more timid when he saw his senior brother, and confided in what he should say and what he shouldn't say.

It's just that these are not what the prince wants to hear, after all, as soon as Su Cheng dies, people die like lights go out, these are all unimportant, and the most important thing now is to find out where the treasure is.

It's a pity that Uncle Zhong is very strict-mouthed, especially after the death of the little master, he closed his mouth tightly, did not dare to reveal a word, and repeatedly wanted to seek death, in this case, it is meaningless to spend it in Changping County, plus Emperor Hui Chong repeatedly urged the letter to come, the prince was finally ready to leave.

Although Yuan Wenyi was less than half a month away from the due date, everyone in the house was nervous, but the prince was leaving, and Lu Shuo, as the county magistrate of Changping County and his friend, naturally wanted to go to Xingyuan Mansion to personally send him on the boat.

"Your Highness, have a nice trip. ”

The two walked all the way and talked all the way, and when the prince was about to get on the boat, he had nothing to say, so Lu Shuo had to say a dry greeting.

These days, the relationship between him and the crown prince has been much more normal, which makes him feel more and more that the abnormality of that night is just that he thinks too much. Therefore, the relationship with the prince has also returned to the same as before, and even because of the previous misunderstanding, he has a sense of guilt towards the prince, as if he has blasphemed him.

"Take care, too. ”

The prince stood at the bow of the boat and looked at him for a while before he looked away and said, "The Lu family has fallen, there is no one who can restrain you in this Shannan Road, do whatever you want in the future...... There's always my brother to support you. ”

Lu Shuo was stunned for a moment, and was about to say something, but the prince had already waited on the big ship with a group of people, and the deck was raised little by little, Lu Shuo watched the hunting sound of the prince's dark clothes blown by the wind on the boat, and gradually moved away from sight as the big ship started, and his heart became more and more determined to do a good job as this official.

Everything went according to plan, the shelter gradually settled down, the masters taught with all their hearts, the girls also studied with peace of mind, the white steward entrusted people to come over, and with the face of the county master, finally found a place for the women in the shelter to sell their goods.

And in this blandness, Yuan Wenyi is finally about to give birth.

At that time, Lu Shuo was on duty in the county office, and he heard that the steward behind him hurriedly came to invite him, saying that Yuan Wenyi was not good and had been helped into the delivery room by the midwives.

The midwife was found a month ago, two of them were sent by the Yuan family from Beijing, for the sake of safety, they have been raised in the backyard of the Lu family, Yuan Wenyi just screamed that the stomach hurts, and the midwives came to the main courtyard and methodically instructed the maids and women to do things separately.

When Lu Shuo came to the backyard, he saw such a scene.

"How's it going?"

Listening to Yuan Wenyi's shouts, the midwives did not help her in, but helped her to walk in the courtyard outside, Lu Shuo was immediately shocked and angry, and it was the first time that he was so angry.

"What's going on? I'm going to give birth, what are you doing with my wife walking outside!"

Yuan Wenyi's face was pale, cold sweat flowed, her lips were almost bitten by her, and she called "cousin" weakly, and she couldn't stop moaning again, Lu Shuo looked more and more distressed, and opened his hand to pick her up.

Qing's mother hurriedly grabbed him and persuaded: "Master Hou, you can be angry, this woman gives birth to a child like this, Mrs. walks around a few more times, so that the child can enter the pot early." Don't worry, several midwives are all familiar with it, and there is no way to make a mistake. ”

Lu Shuo realized that he was concerned and messed up, until he was pulled by Qing's mother, and then he came back to his senses.

Qing's mother is Yuan Wenyi's mother, and it is impossible to harm her.

"And she...... How is she doing, this baby ......"

Lu Shuo's heart was pounding, and even his words were trilled, and the people in the yard naturally noticed it, and the four midwives saw more of this situation, so they naturally wouldn't blame him, Qing's mother pulled him to sit down in the side hall, and replied to him: "Don't worry, a few midwives have seen it just now, the lady is in a very positive fetal position, and she will give birth to a pair of strong big fat boys for you." ”
