Chapter 18: Natural Disasters
Rong Wan watched the two slowly disappear in front of her, and then turned around to go to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, but when she turned around, she saw Ji Fu and Li Yaole coming out of the tower.
Li Yaole first walked in front of Rong Wan, "Afu and I have been waiting for you for a long time, and when we saw that you didn't come, we went to the tower first." ”
Rong Wan bowed, "Just now Ah Wan met her cousin, so she said a few words of greeting, and let the two sisters wait for a long time, is it Ah Wan's." ”
Ji Fu stepped forward and took Rong Wan's hand, and said with half annoyance, "Sister Wan'er, Yaole just said a few words, you are not the left one and the right is not, it seems that we blame you." Since we are sisters, why should we be so formal? ”
When Li Yaole heard this, he also stepped forward, but it was not the same as Ji Fu's gentle tone, he pouted, very dissatisfied, "That's it, am I so fierce?" It's so scared that you can't even make a complaint, don't you? ”
The two people in front of Rong Wan met each other and said this, and their hearts warmed, probably because they were too cautious and unwilling to communicate easily. But she lives a lifetime, and her heart is inevitably a little heavy, and I am afraid that she will not be able to accept others easily. "Sister Le, don't say that, it's Awan's mistake."
Li Yaole looked at Ji Fu depressedly, very helpless, "Afu, look at her, come again." Am I really too fierce, am I? Isn't it? Li Yaole shook Ji Fu's arm, and with that expression, it seemed that he had suffered some great grievance.
Ji Fu couldn't help but laugh, so she had to pat Li Yaole's hand, "If you shake it again, I will faint, Wan'er is not even more afraid of your Hercules." ”
As soon as the truth was finished, Li Yaole let go, "You are amazing." ”
Seeing this, Rong Wan had no choice but to step forward and support Li Yaole, "Sister Le, Awan will never be like this again in the future, don't be angry." ”
Li Yao smiled proudly, "It's good that you know." ”
Ji Fu stepped forward and grabbed Rong Wan and Li Yaole's hands respectively, and said, "Let's go, sisters, look for something to eat." ”
Since the last trip to the Great Mercy and Grace Temple, Rong Wan has not been out of the house for more than half a month, although the days are like weekdays, but Rong Wan is always uneasy in her heart, as if something is going to happen, and she seems to have forgotten something.
Luo Jingyu also left Chang'an for nearly a month, and it had snowed heavily in this month, the quilts on the ground were covered with several layers, and the carriage couldn't move in the market.
It's not that Rong Wan didn't ask Luo Qian, but her father replied vaguely, only saying that she went to do something with her uncle, but she had been there for so long, which seemed very rare in the past, and Rong Wan never remembered that her brother had been away from home for so long when she was thirteen years old.
There was a charcoal stove in the house, compared to the ice and snow outside, it was already very warm, Rong Wan was in a daze on the couch with the hand stove, and Firefly walked in from outside, while sighing at his hands, he said, "It's snowing so hard, it's so cold, I don't know how many people can't stand it." ”
Rong Wan listened, frowned, and asked, "What happened in the city?" ”
Hearing Rong Wan's question, Firefly Green approached Rong Wan a little closer, and then replied, "The maid heard from Mother Su on the second gate that the snow has been falling for two days, and the thatched houses built by the poor people outside the city have been crushed by the snow, and many refugees are homeless, and many of them have run into the city, begging for some warm clothes and food from door to door. ”
Chang'an is also mild on weekdays, although the winter is cold, but there is very little rain and snow, but this year it is surprisingly snowy so much, it can be seen that the snow in the north area has caused a disaster, it seems that this year the court is not at peace again, the sky is a disaster, it is the responsibility of the king.
Rong Wan's memory is that there was a heavy snowfall, but in her previous life, she didn't go out of the door, didn't step out of the second door, and didn't care about the outside things at all, so she didn't notice this, but when she heard it again this year, she felt a little sad, and after this snow, how many people were homeless.
"Firefly, go and ask your mother, can you take some winter supplies from previous years to help those victims?" Rong Wan thought about it, but there was no good way to do it, so she could only take something to save the emergency first.
Firefly answered and went out.
A little girl outside the door brought charcoal in, Bai Yao took it, put it in the charcoal stove, turned around and poured a cup of hot tea for Rong Wan, "Miss was sick for so many days last time, she should be good at the moment, it's better to go out less." ”
"When did you become so verbose?" Rong Wan glanced at Bai Yao and took the hot tea handed by Bai Yao.
"The maids are all for the good of the young lady." Bai Yao is not afraid of Rong Wan, but she is very reasonable, her young lady is very weak, if she is not good to protect, one day she falls ill, and the lady will only ask a few of their maidservants.
Rong Wan was talking to Bai Yao here, and as she spoke, she gave the green back to Pan Huan.
"Mother agreed?" Rong Wan asked.
Firefly Green's face was a little ugly, and he nodded hesitantly.
Rong Wan sensed that something was wrong, so she continued to ask, "If there is anything, just say it, don't hide it." ”
Yinglu frowned, gritted her teeth, as if she had made up her mind, "When the maid went to ask Madame, Madame said that the second girl Qi is now distributing porridge in front of the Yongle Hou Mansion!" ”
Rong Wan paused, not very surprised, if Qi Yanran wanted to become the crown princess, this moment was indeed a good time for Bo Shanming, but it could be regarded as having a heart, and it was good to be able to do something for the people of the world.
But why did Qi Yanran send porridge, why did Firefly Green look so ugly?
"Madame said it would be better for Madame to go and deliver the clothes to the refugees herself." Firefly passed on Qi's words, but she was a little dissatisfied, that Qi Er's porridge was Qi's second girl's intention, and it was also Miss's intention to send clothes to refugees.
But she just didn't understand why Madame wanted the young lady to go in person, as long as the mind arrived, why should someone appear? Besides, Miss has just had an illness, and it is freezing out this day, what if Miss falls ill?
She and Bai Yao finally persuaded Miss not to go out, why did Mrs. want Miss to go out.
As soon as Firefly Green spoke, Rong Wan knew what her mother meant, but it was Qi Yanran who used disaster relief to fight for her good name, and her mother was unwilling to leave her behind.
But she Qi Yanran wanted to be the crown princess, but she didn't want to do it!
Moreover, that kind of thing, as long as someone starts to do it, it will be Dong Shi Xiaofeng who will follow, and the good name can only belong to her Qi Yanran alone, and she Luo Rongwan will not join in the fun.
In the previous life, it was only better than Qi Yanran's talent to save and cause the disaster of killing, and if this good name is taken again, she will die without a place to be buried, her family revenge has not been avenged, and in the second life, she will be in again, how can it be considered inappropriate.
Thinking about it this way, my mother's proposal is really unbelievable.
Rong Wan walked to the table, held a pen and wrote the words "Dong Shi Xiaofeng" on rice paper, thinking that her mother could always understand what she meant, so she asked Firefly to take the paper and hand it to her mother, and when Firefly came back, she did have a few more smiles than Fang Yi.
"Mrs. said that Miss didn't need to go, and asked Sister Ying Tao to find a lot of warm clothes and quietly send them out of the house, which is very low-key."
Rong Wan couldn't help but be depressed, not to make much fanfare in order not to compete with Qi Yanran for good fame, how could she change to a better way when she got to her mother, and she was afraid that the Ministry of Rites Shangshu Luofu would do good deeds without leaving a name and would spread all over Chang'an City and beyond.
Mother is so smart!
Rong Wan could think that when she saw Qi Yanran next time, she would definitely be raised again.
However, she couldn't stop her mother's thoughts, and she could only cover up the water with soldiers.
