Chapter 292: Heavy Snow
When Jiang Rong heard this, he suddenly felt enlightened, so the unlucky Wang Yi was once again taken away by Xiao Jue's hidden guards and locked up in a small black house. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
And Jiang Rong resisted his appearance and swaggered into the Wang family's mansion again.
In the morning, Jiang Rong came to Mrs. Tai's courtyard, approached the old lady and said, "Grandmother, do you know the situation of the victims outside?" ā
Mrs. Tai's face showed compassion and sorrow, and she sighed, "It's pitiful. ā
Jiang Rong took the opportunity to say: "Yes, those people's houses were washed down by the flood, and there was no place to shelter themselves from the rain on such a cold day, so they could only hide in the woods and keep warm."
"And they haven't been able to eat for several days, the children are so hungry that they can't speak, and the grandchildren are really unbearable."
She took Mrs. Tai's cuffs and begged, "Why don't you help them, grandmother?" Our royal family has lived here for generations, and we are also closely related to these people. If they don't do well, my Wang family's luck will also be greatly affected, right? ā
Mrs. Tai glanced at him in surprise, "I can't imagine that your child can still say such a thing, it's just that, thinking of your child's kindness, my Wang family will be a person who comes out again." ā
The ancestor of the Wang family spoke, which of the sons, grandsons, and daughters-in-law dared not listen?
In less than an hour, everything was ready, and three soup kitchens were set up outside Lishui County, and the big pot under the shed was boiling porridge, and the smell of incense spread far away.
The victims who heard the smell rushed here, and when they came, they lined up one by one according to the instructions of the steward of the Wang family, and when it was their turn, they could be assigned a bowl of hot porridge.
Jiang Rong, as the person in charge of this disaster relief, was in charge of several soup kitchens, and she took the opportunity to sprinkle a lot of Bigu Dan into the porridge, so that she could take care of it for two or three days after drinking a bowl of porridge.
As for whether the people have doubts or not, it has nothing to do with her. She's only responsible for disaster relief.
In several counties around Lishui County that were also affected, Jiang Rong took the silver out and gave porridge under the banner of the Wang family.
Xiao Jue, Han Weisong and Wu Tiandong were all sent out by her, and with a large number of Bigu Dan, they were scattered to different county towns to be responsible for soup kitchens, and took the opportunity to mix Bigu Dan into the porridge for the victims to drink.
At the end of the day, almost all the victims were no longer hungry.
Of course, the imperial court would not turn a blind eye to the victims, and regardless of whether they asked, they had already issued instructions to the counties to open warehouses for disaster relief.
It's one thing to just give orders, it's another thing if the officials can't do it.
Don't talk about other places, let's just talk about this Lishui County, and the county order often acts by looking at the face of the Wang family.
The Wang family didn't say anything before, so the county order pretended to be confused and didn't know.
Now that he saw Jiang Rong, the son of his descendant, personally giving porridge, he immediately followed, carrying big bags of grain here, and then praising the Wang family and himself in front of the victims.
After several days of porridge preparation, the victims did not starve to death again.
However, it is the middle of winter, and the weather is very cold, how will the people whose houses were destroyed by the tsunami and waves survive this winter?
Disaster relief is only a stopgap measure, and the key is to find a way out for these victims so that they can have a prosperous life, so as not to cause disasters.
Jiang Rong said this to Wang Yin, the county commander, and Wang Yin immediately nodded yes, "What the fifth prince said is very right, these disaster victims, you have to find something for them to do, otherwise they will all be in a swarm." ā
Jiang Rong said: "Lord Wang, I don't know what can be done for these victims in the county?" ā
Wang Yin thought for a while, and his face showed a little embarrassment, "Now it's the cold winter wax moon, and the farming work has long been over, where is there any work for them?" ā
Jiang Rong thought about it, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and said: "At my grandmother's birthday banquet, I got a statue of Guanyin with many treasures, and I like it very much, I want to donate a Guanyin temple in the name of my grandmother, so that those victims can come to work."
"In this way, not only will my grandmother's compassion be fulfilled, but also the victims of the disaster will be able to do work to get paid, so that they will not be unable to live, what does Lord Wang think?"
Wang Yin slapped his hands and said, "Wonderful! It's wonderful! Five sons are high-flying! ā
Jiang Rong said: "In the evening, I will send the silver to the yamen, hoping that Lord Wang will facilitate this matter as soon as possible, the sooner the better, and the victims can be resettled as soon as possible." ā
Wang Yin hurriedly said: "That's natural, the fifth prince doesn't have to worry, Lord Ben will do his best!" ā
In the evening, Wang Yin was working in the study after eating, thinking about how to come up with a charter for the construction of the Guanyin Temple.
Suddenly, a box shot in through the window and landed right on the table in front of him.
Wang Yin was startled, and hurriedly got up to look out the window, only to see a black shadow flashing by.
He settled, returned to the table and opened the box, his pupils narrowing.
At the top of the box was a letter, and below was a thick stack of silver tickets, each of which was worth a thousand taels, and there were twenty of them!
That's 20,000 taels!
Not to mention building a Guanyin temple, it is enough to build ten.
How could the fifth prince donate so much money?
He opened the envelope again and looked at it, this is not unseemly, he was shocked when he saw it! There are even a list of his past crimes, and they are listed on it, if people know about it, let alone the location of this county order, even the lives of the family may not be saved!
He was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.
At the end of the letter, there is a sentence, "I hope that Lord Wang will handle this money properly, and make sure that every penny of money is put into practice, otherwise, the good deeds that Lord Wang has done will be ...... Hehe! ā
Seeing this, how did Wang Yin not know that this was a threat from Ming Huanghuang? Where would he dare to have any other thoughts?
In the past, he was only the fifth prince of the king, but he was a gentleman who ate, drank and had fun, but he didn't expect it to be so hidden! He was very cautious when he did those things in the past, but he was still dug up by the fifth son.
It seems that the son of the family is the son of the family, and it looks simple on the surface, but in fact, there are many means in secret.
He'll have to be careful with this one in the future.
So Wang Yi, who returned, suddenly found that his grandmother's opinion of him had changed greatly, and the county magistrate outside was also respectful.
What's going on?
It's a pity that he was told harshly before he was released that if he revealed anything about his arrest, then the fate that awaited him was definitely not what he wanted to see.
Thinking of the dark days locked up in the small dark room, he couldn't help but shudder, and made up his mind not to say anything about death!
Although I don't understand why the attitude of my grandmother and Wang Xianling has changed so much, it's a good thing for him, isn't it?
The matter of the victims came to an end, Han Weisong continued his travel journey, Wu Tiandong returned to Luotianmen, this trip to the island made him benefit a lot, he learned a lot, he planned to retreat for a period of time, and integrate all the thoughts and understandings during this time into his sword momentum.
As for Jiang Rong and Xiao Jue, they were divided into two ends, one rushed back to the prince's mansion to be his prince, and the other rushed back to the Yongzhou Zhenguo Mansion to be her cousin.
When Jiang Rong quietly entered his room to put Xiao Rong away, and when he changed his clothes, a group of boys suddenly ran in outside, Jiang Yu and Jiang Yi, as well as Li Tao from the second cousin's family, Li Yun from the third cousin's family, Li Ren from the fourth cousin's family, and Li Yun from the fifth cousin's family.
Six boys and the maids and grandmothers who followed behind them filled her boudoir in an instant.
"Sister, it's snowing outside! Let's go build a snowman! Jiang Yi pulled her sleeve and dragged her out.
Li Yun, Li Yun and Li Ren ran over and hugged her legs, looking up at her, "Auntie, aunt, snowman!" Build a snowman! ā
Jiang Rong pinched their faces funny, "You guys hold my legs, how can I walk?" ā
The three little ones had to let her go, but they fought for the ownership of her other hand.
By the time the group finally arrived in the courtyard, more than a quarter of an hour had passed.
This year's snow came very late, and it was the seventh day of the lunar month, and the first snow fell. Otherwise, the boys wouldn't be so excited.
In just a few moments, a thin layer of snow accumulated on the ground, and the roof, flowers and trees were all covered in a layer of silver.
After dinner in the evening, everyone sat in the hall and talked for a while, and then went back to rest.
It is said that the snow is not cold and the melting snow is cold, but as soon as the snow comes down, the temperature drops by several degrees.
The floor heating in Jiang Rong's yard had already been burned, and when she returned to the house, a burst of heat suddenly rushed in.
Although she didn't feel that cold, she couldn't help but feel warmer and more comfortable by the heat.
When she woke up early the next morning, she opened the window and looked, ho! The snow was so thick.
When I looked at it, there was no place that was not covered in silver. In the whole heaven and earth, only one was white.
Yuefang came in and saw her standing at the window with only her bedclothes, and couldn't help but say, "Girl, it's cold, you better get dressed quickly." ā
Jiang Rong smiled at her: "I'm not cold, but you and Yue Shu are two, can you feel cold at night?" ā
Yueshu is the maid that her grandmother chose for her after she came to the Guogong Mansion, and she is also waiting for her closely, she is a gentle and gentle girl, and she doesn't talk much on weekdays.
Yuefang smiled back while covering the window: "There are charcoal pots burning in the house, and we still feel hot." ā
After breakfast, snowflakes the size of goose feathers began to fall in the sky again, as if it was necessary to sprinkle all the snow that had been piled up a while ago clean.
The old lady looked at the snow and said with some concern: "On such a cold day, I don't know how the common people can live." ā
Jiang Rong comforted her and said: "Grandma, there is a cold way, if it really doesn't work, isn't there still the Yongwang Mansion and our Zhenguo Mansion." In short, I won't really watch those people die of cold and starvation. ā
The old lady smiled: "Well, very much. (To be continued.) )
