037. Still cold

Although she was very tired, Gu Jiayi didn't fall asleep, lying on the bed, thinking about what Feng Liji said, she still couldn't believe it, it turned out that there was really such a strange thing in the world, but it was no wonder that even this kind of thing of soul crossing had happened to her personally, and now hearing these things, it should be possible. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info It's just that He Zhihao still has no news, but since Feng Liji knows that He Zhihao is one of the people he is looking for, then he will protect him secretly, so He Zhihao should not be in danger of life.

After thinking about it for a long time, Gu Jiayi was in a daze, and when she was about to fall asleep, she suddenly heard someone knocking on the door.

"Sister Yi'er, there is a meeting in the village today, if you want to talk about disaster relief, you clean up, get up and let's go and have a look."

Gu Jiayi was excited, yes, He Zhihao's dilapidated house was destroyed, and part of the appropriation from the imperial court should have been allocated to them, maybe they would also share the house with them, so the efficiency of this imperial court is quite high.

"Okay." She straightened up with a carp, picked herself up three times and two times, and didn't even have time to wash her face, so she followed the third brother Niu out of the house.

"Third brother, what's going on in your family?" Gu Jiayi thought about it, but couldn't help but ask. Although she knew that they didn't want her to know, but among the neighbors, their family had helped her, and it was always friendly to ask a few questions.

"It's nothing," Third Brother Niu looked a little embarrassed, coughed dryly, thought about it, and changed the topic, "Everyone in the village is fine, and the injured ones are not seriously injured, but Mr.'s house, as well as several other households, is more seriously damaged, so the disaster silver should be given to you more." ”

Speaking of disaster silver, she is not rare, don't forget that she still has a silver ticket of one hundred taels in her bag, which is enough for the wealthier families in this village for several years, and what she needs now is a house, a residence, and a place to live.

"Third Brother Niu, did you say that you would give us a branch house?"

Third Brother Niu smiled softly, "Even if there is, it's just those old houses in the village that no one lives in, although it's much better than your old house, but you don't need it, hasn't Mr. already gone to teach in the county?" I heard that it's still Joy Academy, like you, Le Zhi will probably find a house for you to live in. ”

It turns out that He Zhihao has already gone to Le Zhi Academy, it seems that he has a new residence, otherwise why didn't he go back to Tuo Village last night? It's just that he didn't tell her, Gu Jiayi felt a faint loss in her heart.

While talking, they have arrived at the compound, which is the place where the village gathers, and if there is any major event, the village steward will gather the villagers here to talk about things in a unified manner.

Village Chief Hao held a lengthy list and went door to door reading the supplies allocated to each family. Gu Jiayi listened for a while, everyone only got some food, oil and salt, Tuo Village is already rich, most of the families are not short of food, hearing these things that are not needed, they all protested, they want silver, with silver nothing to buy.

Gu Jiayi stood quietly. Village Chief Hao ignored the protesting crowd, still reading the accounts, and when he finally couldn't read anymore, he kept a calm face, put his hands behind his back, turned around and left, his body stiff.

"Village Chief," Gu Jiayi's patience was also exhausted, she didn't hear He Zhihao after standing for so long, but maybe she was late, she was unwilling to catch up, "Village Chief, what compensation does my brother-in-law's family have?" ”

Village Chief Hao frowned, looked her up and down a few times, and let out an inaudible sigh, "It's all counted as the thirty taels of silver, it's deducted from it, the big guys are all making trouble, He Zhihao didn't say anything at all, besides, your ten-day deadline is almost up." ”

Gu Jiayi was stunned for a moment, her hand clenched involuntarily, she bit her lip, and asked in a deep voice, "Then how much should I pay to the village now?" ”

Village Chief Hao's face also turned white, "You kid, don't you have to pay for it, tell me the truth, how much have you raised?" ”

Gu Jiayi pinched the silver ticket, almost having the urge to pull it out, but she still held back and shook her head.

"Even if it's twenty taels of compensation, if you still don't have any money by then, come to me."

Twenty taels? The disaster silver is worth ten taels, and the disaster silver is only ten taels, is the court really so poor?

Gu Jiayi's lips were bitten and turned white, so He Zhihao didn't get any supplies and disaster silver.

"I have something to do, if you have any difficulties, come back to me." Village Chief Hao said and left in a hurry.

The third brother Niu was holding three catties of flour and calling her, and Gu Jiayi found out that every household had been allocated supplies.

"Third brother, I still have something to do, you go back first." Gu Jiayi glanced at him lightly.

Perhaps, she can return the thirty taels to them now, and if she pays it back, it can be regarded as repaying He Zhihao's three years of nurturing. Since he doesn't want to take care of her anymore, then she has to support herself, as for which people in this village are sincere or false, she is not a fool, so she can still tell. Although she didn't know what the political situation of the dynasty she was in, but in the streets and alleys, she had heard a few bold people praise the new monarch as a Ming monarch, and according to what she saw, it was indeed Heqing Haiyan, in this case, the imperial court would not watch the displacement of the disaster victims whose residences had been destroyed, so the disaster silver allocated to them would never be only ten taels, but after all, Tuocun was far away from the emperor, and it was common for the village steward to swallow a few pieces of silver privately.

Gu Jiayi took out the list from the inner layer of her clothes, glanced at the silver taels owed by each household, and took a deep breath, thirty taels is only, of course she has the ability to repay the debt without a penny.

The first thing she went to was Aunt Zhang's house, after all, they also helped her a lot. Brother Ming had already told Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang about Gu Jiayi's portrait of Qian Ji, so when she took out a silver ticket of one hundred taels, Aunt Zhang was not surprised, but just casually exchanged a few words.

"One hundred taels is not a small amount, whose house you get, you won't be able to find it for a while, it's better to let Brother Ming accompany you to the county seat to get a few gold leaves, and exchange them for thirty taels of loose silver, according to that list, who's family has a few taels, weigh it first, wrap it together, and then return it to the family when you come back."

Gu Jiayi felt that what Aunt Zhang said was reasonable, so she nodded.

"Then it's going to trouble Brother Ming again."

Brother Ming just touched his head embarrassedly and smiled honestly. Seeing his simple smile, the sadness in Gu Jiayi's heart was finally eased a little, at least there were still people willing to help her. It's just that when she thinks of the future, she is still confused in her heart, Tuocun, does she want to continue to live? Where should she live in the future?
