And "after the great plague there will be a great plague." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info"Medicinal herbs are scarce in the pharmacy. The fifty acres of medicine fields in Mu Chenxue also have a lot of losses. The herbs that were produced that year were fine, but those that took three or five years to produce were soaked in water and had to be replanted.

After the eldest lord fell ill, the eldest lady no longer walked around the house. Stay at the bedside every day to take care of tea and medicine. After all, the two young couples, even if the relationship becomes indifferent, but the woman who marries in the end can only rely on her husband to live. If the eldest lord really has three longs and two shorts, the eldest lady will soon become a widow, and there will be no decent good life to live like now.

And the eldest lady still wants to save the master's heart, so at this time, she will not let the aunts come to the lord's side to be courteous.

This natural disaster did not have much impact on the people living in the city, except for the fact that they had to spend several times more than usual to buy food, everything else was fine. The peasants, who were able to eat on a reliable day, suddenly became all the victims of the disaster. There are even many victims who have entered the city and gathered outside the Qingwang Mansion, waiting for the Qing Wangye to give porridge to spend the day.

Jixian County suddenly poured in so many victims that the city gate had to be closed again. Mu Chenxue wanted to take her grandmother into the city this time, for fear that she would be in any danger outside the city. But the old lady stayed in the nunnery for a long time and didn't want to live in a strange place. Mu Chenxue had to leave some herbs and grains, and asked Tong Jiang to send two guards, which made him feel a little relieved.

The city was chaotic, Mu Chenxue was afraid that something would happen to her younger brother, so she asked her master for leave early in the morning. At the beginning, it was because of the lockdown of the city, and there was a shortage of medicinal materials in the city, and Mu Qian was ill and there was a shortage of Chinese medicinal materials in the Houfu and he couldn't buy them, so he ran around in order to seek medicine. After the eldest man's condition stabilized, she found that the price of food had risen several times, but when she wanted to buy food at a high price, the grain store had already been sold out and began to run out of stock, and now she can't buy food even if she has money.

However, the shogunate did not even buy grain for the winter, and even if they did not buy grain in previous years, they could barely cope with the harvest of the four villages. After all, the eldest lady also has three Zhuangzi's dowries in her hands. In addition, the eldest master's, in addition to the amount used in the house every year, some surplus can be exchanged for money. But this year, not only did the eldest master's grange have no harvest due to natural disasters, but her three farms have also confiscated even grains.

Looking at the empty granary, the eldest lady didn't dare to tell the eldest lord, for fear that the sick lord would aggravate her condition.

But this matter can't be hidden at all, and the old man has heard about it from Steward Liu before he can make a good sense. Within two days of the talent spirit, he fell ill again. The eldest lady had to go back to Cheng Mansion to find a way, but for the married daughter, Cheng Fu was powerless, and only took out 100 catties of rice noodles, which was considered to have not let the eldest lady return empty-handed.

There is no grain in the house, so each house naturally has to be cut, except for the backyard, every house is in trouble. And the second lady Liang even made trouble in front of the eldest master's bed.

"Big brother, I'm not that kind of caring person, what is the situation in the house now, although we are not in charge of the second room, but we also know that life is sad now, and we need to spend our days thriftily. But no matter how much you lose, you can't lose it, the child is not. I don't want much, as long as Peng'er has them, they can't miss Yu'er's. You're the head of the family, and this bowl of water is about to be leveled! ”

The Liang family is not fighting for anything for themselves, but for their son. These days, the routine dishes are getting lighter and lighter, and even now there are only two hot dishes in a meal, and there are not even cold dishes. My son is not used to eating, and he has obviously lost weight these days. But the starling, who has always been picky, didn't lose weight at all, and he knew that the eldest lady had added food to her son. That's why it's the big man.

It's also that the Liang clan hasn't seen Brother Jiu'er these days, so I don't know that the best food in this shogunate is not the eldest young master, nor the eighth young master, but the people in the backyard. At the beginning, the eldest lady used to cut the degree, of course, the first thing that came to mind was the backyard, and the other houses just cut the routine dishes for each meal, and the number of meals was not less. But not only has there been fewer regular dishes in the backyard, but it has even been reduced from three meals a day to two meals a day. There are no snacks left.

didn't say anything about these Mu Chenxue, if she made a fuss because of these things at this time, it would only set off the eldest lady's mind and give her a chance to buckle a hat of unfilial piety. Besides, they never dare to eat the food sent by the house, for fear of poison. So whether to reduce or not to reduce has no effect on them at all.

Qing Wangfu is busy relocating the victims these days, and Qing Wang Ye and a group of officials go to various places to inspect the disaster situation. The prince of the county sits in the palace. Although there were many people in the city, there was no real trouble. The other counties affected by the disaster were not so good. From time to time, there are reports of riots because people have not had anything to eat, and people are killed or injured every day.

Nangong Shumo has come to see Mu Chenxue twice, because he also has a lot of things to deal with. And everything is arranged here in Mu Chenxue, even if the two don't see each other often, they are concerned about each other.

Fortunately, the disaster only affected a few counties around Jixian County, and the heavy rain did not occur in other places. So the victims were quickly resettled. Moreover, the prince of the county purchased grain from other state capitals to level the price of grain. Therefore, grain prices have begun to stabilize before the onset of winter. But even so, it is still nearly twice as high as the same period last year.

The eldest lady saw that there was grain in the city, although she knew that the price was too high, but she had to buy it, otherwise if there were any natural and man-made disasters that ran out of food, this winter would not be able to continue.

And Mu Chenxue had already heard from Nangong Shumo that the price of grain would fall again, so he sold all the surplus grain in his hand at a high price. After the grain price stabilized, he bought it at a low price and made a profit of nearly 400 taels.

As for the medicinal herbs, in addition to the ones that were to be used, they were all sold to pharmacies at a high price. In fact, to make this kind of national difficult wealth, the curtain morning snow in the previous life was not done quietly. But at present, the food and medicine that can be bought in the city are all large families. Let these people have some blood, she has a little less scruples.

On this day, the eldest master's body was better, and he could sit for a few hours a day, but he saw the second sister returning to her parents' house with a pair of swollen eyes.

The Cheng family is mainly engaged in business, and in addition to the damage to farmland and the soaring price of grain, the biggest impact is the wine shop teahouse. And the Cheng family was born in a restaurant. For three months in a row, no customers came to the door, and even in order to maintain the business, a lot of government money was used. But now that winter is about to begin, if there is no business, even the expenses of the house will be unsustainable.

Therefore, the master of the Cheng Mansion and the father-in-law of the second sister and son, asked his daughter-in-law to go back to the shogunate to inquire about what government decrees the imperial court had.

But the second sister and Cheng Xin's married life was not happy, and they often quarreled without saying anything, and even after every quarrel, Cheng Xin would go to the concubine and not enter her room for several days. So her father-in-law ordered her to go back to her parents' house, but she didn't want to do it in her heart. can also know that she can have a place in the Cheng Mansion, and she has to rely on her mother's help, so no matter how sad and sad she is, she must leave this time.
